description: We select the Luminous Infrared Galaxies by cross-correlating the Faint Source Catalogue (FSC) and Point Source Catalogue (PSC) of the IRAS Survey with the Second Data Release of the SDSS for studying their infrared and optical properties. The total number of our sample is 1267 for FSC and 427 for PSC by using 2$σ$ significance level cross-section. The "likelihood ratio" method is used to estimate the sample's reliability and for a more reliable subsample (908 for FSC and 356 for PSC) selection. Then a Catalog with both the infrared, optical and radio informations is presented and will be used in further works. Some statistical results show that the Luminous Infrared Galaxies are quite different from the Ultra-Luminous Infrared Galaxies. The AGN fractions of galaxies with different infrared luminosities and the radio to infrared correlations are consist with previous studies.

A first-order phase-transition, a super-cooled fluid, and a glass in a two-dimensional lattice gas model
Creators: name: Eisenberg, E.

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: Studying the series expansion of the thermodynamic potential for the hard-core N3 lattice-gas model, we provide evidence for a first-order phase-transition with a finite jump in density and entropy, in agreement with numerical transfer matrix calculations. The solid branch terminates at the transition, while the fluid branch continues beyond the critical activity, describing a meta-stable super-cooled fluid. It terminates with density 0.85 (relative to the closest packing density) and finite entropy per site. This termination density is close to the random-closest-packing density of the glassy state obtained for infinitely-fast cooling. The model thus exhibits a thermodynamic meta-stable glassy phase with finite Edwards' compactivity.
Risk analysis of landslides affecting major transportation corridors in southwestern British Columbia
Creators: name: Hazzard, Jennifer
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Slope failures on transportation routes can kill or injure motorists, derail trains, damage vehicles, roads and railways, delay traffic, and incur expense to transportation authorities. In southwestern British Columbia, Highways 1 and 99, the British Columbia Railway, the Canadian National Railway, and the Canadian Pacific Railway all traverse mountainous terrain, and as a result are susceptible to a variety of slope hazards. By quantitatively estimating risk at various areas along a transportation route, high-risk areas can be identified, risks can be compared with values accepted by society, remedial programs can be more effectively designed, and their success can be monitored. A database of 3287 slope failure records was compiled for the five routes mentioned above. Of these, 1764 records include volume estimates. The effects of data censoring were reduced by examining spatial and temporal patterns in landslide reporting for failures of different magnitudes on various sections of each route. Magnitude-cumulative frequency relationships were plotted for both rock falls and debris flows on each route. The rock fall relationships each display a power-law distribution for events greater than 1 m³, and are very similar in form over several orders of magnitude. Geological conditions along the routes influence the slope of the magnitude-cumulative frequency slopes. Risk of death due to slope failure on several route segments was calculated using the magnitude-frequency relationships. The estimates of annual probability of death due to rock fall range from 0.008 to 0.10, and are below the upper limits of several risk acceptability criteria. Debris flow risk estimates are less reliable, due to the limited data set. The greatest contribution to risk to life is generally from intermediate rock falls in the Fraser Canyon (1 to 10 m³), and larger rock falls in Howe Sound and the Fraser Lowland (100 to 1000 m³).
The effects of genetic manipulation on the stress response and disease resistance of coho salmon
Creators: name: Jhingan, Esther
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Genetic manipulation is widely used for the improvement of agricultural organisms. However, alterations of the genome could also result in unintentional changes, and could perhaps alter the performance of the organism. Performance traits such as sensitivity to stressors and to pathogens are strongly influenced by genetic information, and could therefore be affected by alterations of the genome. In this thesis, I tested the hypothesis that genetic manipulation alters the stress response and disease resistance of fish. Specifically, the studies examined the effects of the insertion of a growth hormone (GH) gene construct and triploidy on coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch). In this study, the GH transgene did not alter the physiological or cellular stress responses to a sudden heat shock, relative to those of non-transgenic fish. Exposure of the diploid fish to a bacterial pathogen (Vibrio anguillarum) appeared to reveal differences in disease resistance between different transgenic lines. The first filial generation of GH transgenic fish, which were also a more rapidly growing line, appeared to be more susceptible to disease relative to non-transgenic fish. The second filial generation of GH transgenic fish, which were a slower growing transgenic line, were equally or more resistant than the non-transgenic fish. Disease resistance was compromised by triploidy, and presence of the GH transgene in triploid fish did not appear to further modify the triploid's resistance to the pathogen.
Neutron Stars Harboring a Primordial Black Hole: Maximum Survival Time

description: We explore in general relativity the survival time of neutron stars that host an endoparasitic, possibly primordial, black hole at their center. Corresponding to the minimum steady-state Bondi accretion rate for adiabatic flow that we found earlier for stiff nuclear equations of state (EOSs), we derive analytically the maximum survival time after which the entire star will be consumed by the black hole. We also show that this maximum survival time depends only weakly on the stiffness for polytropic EOSs with $Γ\geq 5/3$, so that this survival time assumes a nearly universal value that depends on the initial black hole mass alone. Establishing such a value is important for constraining the contribution of primordial black holes in the mass range $10^{-16} M_\odot \lesssim M \lesssim 10^{-10} M_\odot$ to the dark-matter content of the Universe.

Coherent searches for periodic gravitational waves from unknown isolated sources and Scorpius X-1: results from the second LIGO science run
Creators: name: The LIGO Scientific Collaboration
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We carry out two searches for periodic gravitational waves using the most sensitive few hours of data from the second LIGO science run. The first search is targeted at isolated, previously unknown neutron stars and covers the entire sky in the frequency band 160-728.8 Hz. The second search targets the accreting neutron star in the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1, covers the frequency bands 464-484 Hz and 604-624 Hz, and two binary orbit parameters. Both searches look for coincidences between the Livingston and Hanford 4-km interferometers. For isolated neutron stars our 95% confidence upper limits on the gravitational wave strain amplitude range from 6.6E-23 to 1E-21 across the frequency band; For Scorpius X-1 they range from 1.7E-22 to 1.3E-21 across the two 20-Hz frequency bands. The upper limits presented in this paper are the first broad-band wide parameter space upper limits on periodic gravitational waves using coherent search techniques. The methods developed here lay the foundations for upcoming hierarchical searches of more sensitive data which may detect astrophysical signals.

description: We use holographic methods to show that photons emitted by a strongly coupled plasma subject to a magnetic field are linearly polarized regardless of their four-momentum, except when they propagate along the field direction. The gravitational dual is constructed using a 5D truncation of 10-dimensional type IIB supergravity, and includes a scalar field in addition to the constant magnetic one. In terms of the geometry of the collision experiment that we model, our statement is that any photon produced there has to be in its only polarization state parallel to the reaction plane.

description: We search for the production of single top quarks via flavor-changing neutral current couplings of a gluon to the top quark and a charm ($c$) or up ($u$) quark. We analyze 230 pb$^{-1}$ of lepton + jets data from $\ppbar$ collisions at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV collected by the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We observe no significant deviation from standard model predictions, and hence set upper limits on the anomalous coupling parameters $\kappacLambda$ and $\kappauLambda$, where $\kappag$ define the strength of $tcg$ and $tug$ couplings, and $Λ$ defines the scale of new physics. The limits at 95% C.L. are: $\kappacLambda < 0.15 \rm TeV^{-1}$ and $\kappauLambda < 0.037 \rm TeV^{-1}$.

On tauroctonies and stars: Mithras and the life of an image
Creators: name: Gangui, Alejandro
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: History and Philosophy of Physics (physics.hist-ph)

description: A hero or a god, wearing an oriental garb and a Phrygian cap, presses his body on that of a bull to subdue it. With his flexed knee he presses the back of the animal and holds its head with his left hand, while with his right hand he stabs a dagger into the neck of the beast. Referring to this representation of the sacrifice of the bull, or tauroctony, Fritz Saxl once wrote that he could not imagine another case in which the birth of an image could be observed with such precision. Although the complete iconography of the Mithras cult varies substantially from one sanctuary to another, the tauroctony, an element always present in all temples, is considered key to its ideology. This image was not neglected by Aby Warburg and was reproduced in abundance in Panel 8 on the Ascension towards the Sun in his Bilderatlas Mnemosyne. In this work we propose to make a journey through the life of this image that, very early on, was related to the constellations, to the great circles of the celestial sphere and to certain singular moments of the seasonal cycle. We will conclude with a critical analysis of recent speculations that bring into play subtle aspects of the movement of the sky, driven by a powerful god who resided beyond the stars, and relate them to the symbolic death of the bull.

description: Self-gravitating kink solutions of a two-dimensional dilaton gravity are revisited in this work. Analytical kink solutions are derived from a concise superpotential formalism of the dynamical equations. A general analysis on the linear stability is conducted for an arbitrary static solution of the model. After gauge fixing, a Schrödinger-like equation with factorizable Hamiltonian operator is obtained, which ensures the linear stability of the solution.

description: The anomalously large cos(2 phi) asymmetry measured in the Drell-Yan process is discussed. Possible origins of this large deviation from the Lam-Tung relation are considered with emphasis on the comparison of two particular proposals: one that suggests it arises from a QCD vacuum effect and one that suggests it is a hadronic effect. Experimental signatures distinguishing these effects are discussed.

Symmetry constraints for vector scattering and transfer matrices containing evanescent components: energy conservation, reciprocity and time reversal

Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)

description: In this work we study the scattering and transfer matrices for electric fields defined with respect to an angular spectrum of plane waves. For these matrices, we derive the constraints that are enforced by conservation of energy, reciprocity and time reversal symmetry. Notably, we examine the general case of vector fields in three dimensions and allow for evanescent field components. Moreover, we consider fields described by both continuous and discrete angular spectra, the latter being more relevant to practical applications, such as optical scattering experiments. We compare our results to better-known constraints, such as the unitarity of the scattering matrix for far-field modes, and show that previous results follow from our framework as special cases. Finally, we demonstrate our results numerically with a simple example of wave propagation at a planar glass-air interface, including the effects of total internal reflection. Our formalism makes minimal assumptions about the nature of the scattering medium and is thus applicable to a wide range of scattering problems.
Static dilatonic black hole with nonlinear Maxwell and Yang-Mills fields of power-law type

description: Static spherically symmetric black hole solution is obtained in the framework of Einstein-dilaton theory with nonlinear Maxwell and Yang-Mills fields of power-law type. It is observed that black hole might have two horizons similarly as it takes place for linear gauge fields case. Thermodynamics of the black hole is studied, namely the behaviour of temperature is examined and the first law is written. The concept of extended phase space is also utilized, namely we have written and analyzed the equation of state for the black hole and examined the Gibbs free energy. The Gibbs free energy shows that there is the first order phase transition if the temperature or the pressure are below their critical values and coupling parameters are relatively small. Increasing of the coupling parameters might give rise to appearance of a domain with the zeroth order phase transition, the existence of the latter one is specific for other types of dilatonic black holes. Prigogine-Defay ratio has been calculated, it shows that at the critical point the phase transition is not exactly of the second order, it is closer to the glass-type phase transition since the Prigogine-Defay ratio is not equal to one.

description: We present first results of UT1-UTC determinations using the VLBI Global Observing System (VGOS). During December 2019 through February 2020 a series of 1~hour long observing sessions were performed using the VGOS stations at Ishioka in Japan and the Onsala twin telescopes in Sweden. The data of this VGOS-B series were correlated, post-correlation processed, and analysed at the Onsala Space Observatory. The derived UT1-UTC results were compared to corresponding results from standard legacy S/X Intensive sessions (INT1/INT2), as well to the final values of the International Earth Rotation and Reference Frame Service (IERS), provided in IERS Bulletin~B. The VGOS-B series achieve 3-4 times lower formal uncertainties for the UT1-UTC results than standard legacy S/X INT series. Furthermore, the root mean square (RMS) agreement with respect to the IERS Bulletin~B is 30-40 % better for the VGOS-B results than for the INT1/INT2 results.

description: Media services providers, such as music streaming platforms, frequently leverage swipeable carousels to recommend personalized content to their users. However, selecting the most relevant items (albums, artists, playlists...) to display in these carousels is a challenging task, as items are numerous and as users have different preferences. In this paper, we model carousel personalization as a contextual multi-armed bandit problem with multiple plays, cascade-based updates and delayed batch feedback. We empirically show the effectiveness of our framework at capturing characteristics of real-world carousels by addressing a large-scale playlist recommendation task on a global music streaming mobile app. Along with this paper, we publicly release industrial data from our experiments, as well as an open-source environment to simulate comparable carousel personalization learning problems.

description: Der COVID-19-mRNA-Impfstoff Comirnaty ist in Europa seit dem 25.11.2021 mit einer reduzierten Impfstoffdosis (10 μg) für die Impfung gegen COVID-19 von Kindern im Alter von 5 – 11 Jahren durch die EMA zugelassen. Nach sorgfältiger Analyse der verfügbaren Daten – auch aus der aktuellen vierten Infektions¬welle – besteht nach Ansicht der STIKO derzeit für Kinder ohne Vorerkrankungen im Alter von 5 – 11 Jahren nur ein geringes Risiko für eine schwere COVID-19-Erkrankung, Hospitalisierung und Intensivbehandlung. Nach abschließender Risiko-Nutzen-Abwägung hat die STIKO daher zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt entschieden, vorerst lediglich eine Indikationsimpfempfehlung und keine allgemeine COVID-19-Impfempfehlung für 5 – 11-Jährige auszusprechen.

description: In this Letter we demonstrate that any interaction of pressureless dark matter with holographic dark energy, whose infrared cutoff is set by the Hubble scale, implies a constant ratio of the energy densities of both components thus solving the coincidence problem. The equation of state parameter is obtained as a function of the interaction strength. For a variable degree of saturation of the holographic bound the energy density ratio becomes time dependent which is compatible with a transition from decelerated to accelerated expansion.

description: Identifying the habitat selection patterns of aquatic species is necessary for protecting threatened and endangered native fishes, as well as for producing satisfying and exciting sport fisheries. This field lesson combines fish observation with habitat data collection to evaluate fish habitat selection. The lesson can be tailored to suit undergraduate- and graduate-level students in biology or ecology programs. First, students will identify fish and document fish locations via snorkeling. Students will then collect habitat data from points used by and available to fish using the appropriate equipment. Depending on the size of the river, the number of instructors, and the amount of equipment available, this lesson is recommended for 4-20 students. Students will be asked to reflect on their observations and form a hypothesis about what habitat characteristics fish are selecting. Finally, as an optional assignment, students will use statistical models to determine important habitat characteristics based on collected or supplied data. Recommended duration for the field activity is 2 class sessions (one for Preparatory Material and one for Lab Assignment) and a 5–8-hour field lesson.

description: Chronic insecurities that emerge from adverse experiences in early intimate partner relationships in adolescence and emerging adulthood can have profound impacts on mental health and well-being. Less clear is the extent to which these experiences for parents impact subsequent relationships within and across generations. We examine the extent to which secure, dismissing, pre-occupied, and fearful intimate partner relationships in adolescence and emerging adulthood, well before becoming a parent, are associated with next-generation patterns of attachment between mothers and infant offspring. Data were drawn from a nested study of infant–mother attachment (n = 220) within the Australian Temperament Project Generation 3 Study (N = 1167, est. 1983). Intimate partner relationships in adolescence and young adulthood were assessed by self-report at 23–24 years of age. Over a decade later, infant–mother attachment security was assessed at 12 months post-partum. Young adult intimate partner relationships defined by high levels of fearful, pre-occupied, and dismissing attachment styles were reported in 11%, 17%, and 38% of young mothers, respectively. Increases in fear of intimacy in relationships were associated with an increase in the odds, by around 50%, of infant–mother insecure attachments (vs secure; OR = 1.56, 95% CI = 1.07, 2.28) and disorganised attachments (vs organised; OR = 1.49, 95% CI = 1.00, 2.22). A mother's self-reported history of fear of intimacy within young adult relationships predicts later insecure and disorganised mother–infant attachments. Guidance and greater support for young people navigating their earliest intimate relationships may not only prevent adverse relational experiences at the time but also on becoming a parent. Findings have relevance for family and infant mental health therapies. Translating these findings into supported conversations may help prevent infant–mother attachment difficulties, or later repair them, through validation of the lingering effects of early fear of intimacy and empowerment of parents to prevent next-generation infant experiences of distrust.

description: Upgraded metallurgical grade silicon (UMG-Si) for photovoltaic (PV) solar applications has been manufactured through the metallurgical route by means of the process developed by Ferrosolar. In an ambitious mass production test, performed in commercial solar cells and modules production lines, the silicon was proven to be appropriate for photovoltaics applications (Fornies et al., 2019 Mass production test of solar cells and modules made of 100% umg silicon. 20.76% record efficiency. Energies 12), reaching, in a conventional production line, up to 20.76% of solar cell efficiency with multicrystalline cells made of 100% UMG silicon. In this paper we present more results from the mentioned massive test. Defect engineering is being applied to improve the bulk lifetime of the UMG wafers and to guide in the identification of the limiting defects in the material. Moreover, the modules produced with 100% UMG silicon solar cells were installed together with the modules produced in the same production line with polysilicon material to assess the degradation of the UMG silicon when compared to polysilicon. After 24 months of outdoor PV generation, the degradation, in terms of Performance Ratio at 25C (25PR) diminution, has been the same for both types of modules. Additionally, a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) has been performed for this UMG silicon and state-of-the-art Siemens polysilicon to compare the environmental impact of both silicon feedstocks. The results presented in this paper; chemical analysis of wafers, defect engineering, low degradation, average efficiency and environmental assessment, lead to a complete study of UMG silicon, confirming its potential to be used as raw material for PV applications.

description: This brief code paper presents a new Python-wrapped version of the popular 21cm cosmology simulator, 21cmFAST. The new version, v3+, maintains the same core functionality of previous versions of 21cmFAST, but features a simple and intuitive interface, and a great deal more flexibility. This evolution represents the work of a formalized collaboration, and the new version, available publicly on GitHub, provides a single point-of-reference for all future upgrades and community-added features. In this paper, we describe simple usage of 21cmFAST, some of its new features, and provide a simple performance benchmark.

description: The morphology of clusters of galaxies may be described with a set of parameters which contain information about the formation and evolutionary history of these systems. In this paper we present a preliminary study of the morphological parameters of a sample of 28 compact Abell clusters extracted from DPOSS data. The morphology of galaxy clusters is parameterized by their apparent ellipticity, position angle of the major axis, centre coordinates, core radius and beta-model power law index. Our procedure provides estimates of these parameters by simultaneously fitting them all, overcoming some of the difficulties induced by sparse data and low number statistics typical of this kind of analysis. The cluster parameters were fitted in a 3 x 3 h^-2 sqMpc region, measuring the background in a 2

On Iron Enrichment, Star Formation, and Type Ia Supernovae in Galaxy Clusters
Creators: name: Loewenstein, Michael
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The nature of star formation and Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) in galaxies in the field and in rich galaxy clusters are contrasted by juxtaposing the build-up of heavy metals in the universe inferred from observed star formation and supernovae rate histories with data on the evolution of Fe abundances in the intracluster medium (ICM). Models for the chemical evolution of Fe in these environments are constructed, subject to observational constraints, for this purpose. While models with a mean delay for SNIa of 3 Gyr and standard initial mass function (IMF) are consistent with observations in the field, cluster Fe enrichment immediately tracks a rapid, top-heavy phase of star formation -- although transport of Fe into the ICM may be more prolonged and star formation likely continues to redshifts <1. The source of this prompt enrichment is Type II supernovae (SNII) yielding at least 0.1 solar masses per explosion (if the SNIa rate normalization is scaled down from its value in the field according to the relative number of candidate progenitor stars in the 3-8 solar mass range) and/or SNIa explosions with short delay times associated with the rapid star formation mode. Star formation is >3 times more efficient in rich clusters than in the field, mitigating the overcooling problem in numerical cluster simulations. Both the fraction of baryons cycled through stars, and the fraction of the total present-day stellar mass in the form of stellar remnants, are substantially greater in clusters than in the field.
