description: We investigate, using purely combinatorial methods, structural and algorithmic properties of linear equivalence classes of divisors on tropical curves. In particular, an elementary proof of the Riemann-Roch theorem for tropical curves, similar to the recent proof of the Riemann-Roch theorem for graphs by Baker and Norine, is presented. In addition, a conjecture of Baker asserting that the rank of a divisor D on a (non-metric) graph is equal to the rank of D on the corresponding metric graph is confirmed, and an algorithm for computing the rank of a divisor on a tropical curve is constructed.
On the absence of backsplash analogues to NGC 3109 in the $Λ$CDM framework

description: The dwarf galaxy NGC 3109 is receding 105 km/s faster than expected in a $Λ$CDM timing argument analysis of the Local Group and external galaxy groups within 8 Mpc (Banik \& Zhao 2018). If this few-body model accurately represents long-range interactions in $Λ$CDM, this high velocity suggests that NGC 3109 is a backsplash galaxy that was once within the virial radius of the Milky Way and was slingshot out of it. Here, we use the Illustris TNG300 cosmological hydrodynamical simulation and its merger tree to identify backsplash galaxies. We find that backsplashers as massive ($\geq 4.0 \times 10^{10} M_\odot$) and distant ($\geq 1.2$ Mpc) as NGC 3109 are extremely rare, with none having also gained energy during the interaction with their previous host. This is likely due to dynamical friction. Since we identified 13225 host galaxies similar to the Milky Way or M31, we conclude that postulating NGC 3109 is a backsplash galaxy causes $>3.96σ$ tension with the expected distribution of backsplashers in $Λ$CDM. We show that the dark matter only version of TNG300 yields much the same result, demonstrating its robustness to how the baryonic physics is modelled. If instead NGC 3109 is not a backsplasher, consistency with $Λ$CDM would require the 3D timing argument analysis to be off by 105 km/s for this rather isolated dwarf, which we argue is unlikely. We discuss a possible alternative scenario for NGC 3109 and the Local Group satellite planes in the context of MOND, where the Milky Way and M31 had a past close flyby $7-10$ Gyr ago.

Il Libro che ci osserva

Year: 2025

description: Un archivio senza confini raccoglie la materia prima ancora che diventi pensiero, un labirinto in cui ogni volume è un’incisione nella carne, ogni pagina una sinapsi che si ripiega su se stessa. Qui il lettore è il testo, e ogni tentativo di decifrazione si traduce in una riscrittura biologica, un autoannientamento che dissolve il soggetto nella materia che lo compone.

Il linguaggio non è un mezzo, ma un predatore: divora, assimila, metabolizza chi lo impiega. Non descrive, ma smembra; non comunica, ma dissolve le strutture concettuali che pretendono di dominarlo. Il sentire viscerale emerge come un codice primario, una conoscenza che non passa per la simbolizzazione ma per l’immediata trasmissione biologica.

Il mostro che attraversa il tempo non è un’allucinazione, ma una eco filogenetica, il criminale di specie che si ripete nella memoria del sangue. L’orrore non è un’anomalia, ma una necessità biologica, l’adattamento che si perpetua attraverso la violenza della selezione naturale.

Esistere è già una ferita, una lacerazione ontologica. Il trauma non è un evento, ma la condizione stessa dell’essere, la vibrazione residua di una materia che ha smarrito la propria quiete. E se ogni pensiero è già scritto nella carne, se la biblioteca si espande divorando chi la sfoglia, allora non resta che un’unica certezza: noi siamo ciò che osserviamo, e osserviamo ciò che ci sfugge.

description: We present an exact time-dependent solution to the effective D-brane world-volume theory which describes an inhomogeneous decay of a brane-antibrane system. We compute the quantum energy flux induced by the particle creation in this inhomogeneous and time-dependent background. We find that this calculation is essentially equivalent to that of the moving mirror system. In the initial stage, the energy flux turns out to be thermal with the temperature given by the inverse of the distance between the brane and the antibrane. Later it changes its sign and becomes a negative energy flux. Our result may be relevant for the (p)reheating process or/and the evolution of cosmic string network after stringy brane inflation.

Can Ordered Precursors Promote the Nucleation of Solid Solutions?

description: Crystallization often proceeds through successive stages that lead to a gradual increase in organization. Using molecular simulation, we determine the nucleation pathway for solid solutions of copper and gold. We identify a new nucleation mechanism (liquid$\to$$L1_2$~precursor$\to$solid solution), involving a chemically ordered intermediate that is more organized than the end product. This nucleation pathway arises from the low formation energy of $L1_2$ clusters which, in turn, promote crystal nucleation. We also show that this mechanism is composition-dependent since the high formation energy of other ordered phases precludes them from acting as precursors.

description: Being one of the most abundant atomic/molecular species observed in dense molecular gas, atomic carbon ($\mathrm{C}^0$) is a potential good tracer of molecular gas mass in many chemical/physical environments, though the $\mathrm{C^0}$ abundance variation outside the Galactic disk region is yet to be fully known. This paper presents a wide-field 500 GHz [CI] map of the Galactic central molecular zone (CMZ) obtained with the ASTE 10-m telescope. Principal component analysis and non-LTE multi-transition analysis have shown that the [CI] emission predominantly originates from the low-excitation gas component with a 20-50 K temperature and $\sim 10^3\ \mathrm{cm}^{-3}$ density, whereas $\mathrm{C^0}$ abundance is likely suppressed in the high-excitation gas component. The average $N(\mathrm{C}^0)$/$N(\mathrm{CO})$ abundance ratio in the CMZ is 0.3-0.4, which is 2-3 times that in the Galactic disk. The $N(\mathrm{C}^0)$/$N(\mathrm{CO})$ ratio increases to 0.7 in the innermost 10 pc region and to $\sim2$ in the circumnuclear disk. We discovered $\mathrm{C^0}$-rich regions distributed in a ring-shape encircling the supernova remnant (SNR) Sgr A east, indicative that the $\mathrm{C}^0$-enrichment in the central 10 pc region is a consequence of a molecular cloud-SNR interaction. In the 15 atom/molecules included in principal component analysis (PCA), CN is the only other species that increases in the [CI]-bright ring. The origin of the [CI]-bright ring is likely a cosmic-ray dominated region created by low-energy cosmic-ray particles accelerated by Sgr A east or primitive molecular gas collected by the SNR in which the $\mathrm{C}^0$-to-CO conversion has not reached the equilibrium.

description: R E S U M OA quantidade de resíduos produzidos em escala mundial aumentou consideravelmente nas últimas décadas, porém uma parcela poderia ter sido evitada nas fontes geradoras. Um problema muito recorrente que está associado à geração de resíduos é o desperdício de alimentos em unidades de alimentação e nutrição (UAN), entre as quais os restaurantes acadêmicos. A gravimetria pode ser uma ferramenta para a quantificação do desperdício. Desse modo, buscou-se utilizar a análise gravimétrica para o planejamento de ações de gestão visando a redução do desperdício. O presente estudo foi realizado no restaurante acadêmico (RA) de uma instituição federal de ensino superior (IES), localizado na cidade de Sobral, Ceará. A análise gravimétrica possibilitou identificar os dias em que houve maior desperdício (segundas-feiras e sextas-feiras). Os resultados deste estudo identificaram valores médios diários de resto-ingestão dentro do esperado pela literatura. No entanto, as médias de sobras sujas estiveram acima dos limites nos dois períodos avaliados na gravimetria, no almoço e jantar. Tais resultados foram utilizados pela gestão da instituição para tomada de decisões visando diminuir o desperdício de alimentos.Palavras-Chaves: Desperdício de alimentos, gravimetria, restaurante acadêmico.

description: Cervical epidural blood patches remain an unfamiliar domain for most anesthesiologist as they fear the possible neurological complications related with the procedure. The injection of autologous blood as close as possible to the dural leakage site has shown to be the most effective approach for symptom resolution in case of spontaneous cervical dural tears. This case report describes in detail an alternative and feasible technique to perform an epidural blood patch at the cervical level reducing the theoretical risk associated with this type of procedure.

description: Radiative and mechanical feedback of massive stars regulates star formation and galaxy evolution. Positive feedback triggers the creation of new stars by collecting dense shells of gas, while negative feedback disrupts star formation by shredding molecular clouds. Although key to understanding star formation, their relative importance is unknown. Here, we report velocity-resolved observations from the SOFIA (Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy) legacy program FEEDBACK of the massive star-forming region RCW 120 in the [CII] 1.9-THz fine-structure line, revealing a gas shell expanding at 15 km/s. Complementary APEX (Atacama Pathfinder Experiment) CO J=3-2 345-GHz observations exhibit a ring structure of molecular gas, fragmented into clumps that are actively forming stars. Our observations demonstrate that triggered star formation can occur on much shorter time scales than hitherto thought (<0.15 million years), suggesting that positive feedback operates on short time periods.

description: We report quantitative relations between corruption level and economic factors, such as country wealth and foreign investment per capita, which are characterized by a power law spanning multiple scales of wealth and investments per capita. These relations hold for diverse countries, and also remain stable over different time periods. We also observe a negative correlation between level of corruption and long-term economic growth. We find similar results for two independent indices of corruption, suggesting that the relation between corruption and wealth does not depend on the specific measure of corruption. The functional relations we report have implications when assessing the relative level of corruption for two countries with comparable wealth, and for quantifying the impact of corruption on economic growth and foreign investments.

description: A Higgs boson produced in association with one or more bottom quarks is of great theoretical and experimental interest to the high-energy community. A precise prediction of its total and differential cross-section can have a great impact on the discovery of a Higgs boson with large bottom-quark Yukawa coupling, like the scalar (h^0 and H^0) and pseudoscalar (A^0) Higgs bosons of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) in the region of large \tanβ. In this paper we apply the threshold resummation formalism to determine both differential and total cross-sections for b g \to bΦ(where Φ= h^0, H^0), including up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (NNNLO) soft plus virtual QCD corrections at next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) accuracy. We present results for both the Fermilab Tevatron and the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

Daylighting in office buildings
Creators: name: Farkas, Tibor
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis presents a conceptual framework for the introduction of daylighting considerations into the design of office buildings. Design is an intuitive process, yet the intuition must be educated by study and analysis. The framework developed in the thesis enables the systematic study of daylighting principles and techniques and is a major step towards a grasp of daylighting design. The thesis is divided into nine chapters. The introductory chapter contains a brief history of daylighting in office buildings, examines reasons for daylighting, and explains the structure of the thesis. The following chapter analyses the performance criteria that the luminous environment in office interiors must fulfill in order to provide a satisfactory performance of visual tasks and result in user acceptance. Each of the next five chapters examine specific techniques, under five general objectives: i. promoting daylight access ii. promoting daylight penetration iii. interior space planning for daylighting advantage iv. controlling brightness extremes v. integrating daylight with electrical light In each chapter, these techniques are listed in order of decreasing scale: from site planning, through building configuration and building envelope, to building interior. The thesis shows that daylighting can be incorporated into building design at various levels of commitment, ranging from a total commitment to daylighting, in which the building is conceived as "a light fixture that can be engineered to a state of optimal performance", to a minor commitment, in which, for example, perimeter lights in an otherwise standard office building design are controlled in response to daylighting needs. Furthermore, it is shown that daylighting techniques can be introduced at various scales--some techniques may modulate the massing, while others deal with specific building components. Following the study of techniques, there is a discussion on daylighting design tools and the integration of daylighting with other aspects of design. The thesis concludes that daylighting offers architects the opportunity to design office buildings so that they use less energy and, at the same time, provide a better working environment than is the case with most buildings today.
Dynamics of guided circular saws
Creators: name: Lehmann, Bruce Fredrik
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The results of this work will be useful to those interested in predicting or improving the cutting accuracy of guided circular saws. In this thesis an experimentally verified numerical model of the guided fixed collar circular saw is presented. Features of the model include the ability to represent the blade and collar geometry, blade runout, rotational stresses, guide dynamics, guide pad shape, guide lubricant, and guide or blade misalignment. The blade is assumed to be governed by thin plate theory and the guide arms are modelled as a lumped parameter system. The lubricating fluid is modelled as a number of massless spring-dampers. Numerical solutions are given for the natural frequency response, the forced response due to static or harmonic lateral loading, and for the self-excited response caused by the interaction of the blade runout with the guides. The behaviour of the runout as a function of blade rotation speed and the conditions for which a resonant condition is produced in the guides are also determined. Experimental results obtained for the natural response, the deflection caused by a static load, the effect of speed on the blade runout, and the self-excited response correlate well with the numerical results. Numerical results are presented to show the effects of guide position, guide shape and the use of multiple guides on the natural and forced response.

description: This document reports on the Linghub language resource discovery portal, the software deliverable developed as part of task T5.3 (“Repositories for Resources and Metadata”) which concludes the delivery of work package 5 in M37 (July 2021), with one month delay to the original plan. The task fits in the challenge 1 described in the project proposal, which is about the discovery of language resources, using homogeneous and expressive metadata from different language resource repositories, giving information about availability, technical quality and content of language resources and combining them into a single search interface. The objectives linked to the challenge and work plan were met through the delivery of the platform. We will describe first these objectives and main points of the work plan, and how they are tackled in the platform. We then present the software which Linghub is based on, and the customizations that were made to bring the platform up to the standards desired. Next, we list the resources harvested and imported in Linghub, coming from different repositories and sources. Then we describe the exploration of an approach to the sustainability of data through a peer-to-peer decentralized storage infrastructure and the iLOD dataset created as a result of this task. Finally, we touch on the long term remaining tasks concerning the maintenance of the platform.

Nosso objetivo foi caracterizar a comunidade de macroinvertebrados bentônicos da represa Águas Claras (Caldas – Minas Gerais) e correlacionar sua distribuição com fatores abióticos da água e do sedimento. As coletas foram realizadas em 13 pontos amostrais durante os meses de março, junho, setembro e dezembro do ano de 2013, por meio de amostras do sedimento da represa coletadas em triplicata utilizando-se uma draga Van Veen. Foram identificados 1793 espécimes pertencentes aos filos Annelida e Arthropoda, sendo a densidade média total de indivíduos de aproximadamente 300 ind.m-². Os fatores ambientais relacionados a impactos decorrentes da atividade humana, como os altos valores de matéria orgânica no sedimento, influenciaram na distribuição dos táxons na represa, assim como outros fatores que foram, ao mesmo tempo, importantes na distribuição e composição dos mesmos, devendo-se ter prudência em relação a monitoramentos futuros, pois a represa Águas Claras pode estar recebendo maiores impactos.Palavras-chave: Fatores abióticos, Fauna bentônica, Reservatório artificial, Variáveis ambientais.

description: We present a search for "hyper-compact" star clusters in the Milky Way using a combination of Gaia and the Dark Energy Camera Legacy Survey (DECaLS). Such putative clusters, with sizes of ~1 pc and containing 500-5000 stars, are expected to remain bound to intermediate-mass black holes (Mbh~10^3-10^5 M-sun) that may be accreted into the Milky Way halo within dwarf satellites. Using the semi-analytic model SatGen we find an expected ~100 wandering intermediate-mass black holes with if every infalling satellite hosts a black hole. We do not find any such clusters in our search. Our upper limits rule out 100% occupancy, but do not put stringent constraints on the occupation fraction. Of course, we need stronger constraints on the properties of the putative star clusters, including their assumed sizes as well as the fraction of stars that would be compact remnants.

description: We have carried out near-IR/optical observations to examine star formation toward a bright-rimmed cometary globule (BRC37) facing the exciting star(s) of an HII region (IC1396) containing an IRAS source, which is considered to be an intermediate-mass protostar. With slit-less spectroscopy we detected ten H_alpha emission stars around the globule, six of which are near the tip of the globule and are aligned along the direction to the exciting stars. There is evidence that this alignment was originally towards an O9.5 star, but has evolved to align towards a younger O6 star when that formed. Near-IR and optical photometry suggests that four of these six stars are low-mass young stellar objects (YSOs) with masses of ~0.4 M_sun. Their estimated ages of ~1 Myr indicate that they were formed at the tip in advance of the formation of the IRAS source. Therefore, it is likely that sequential star formation has been taking place along the direction from the exciting stars towards the IRAS source, due to the UV impact of the exciting star(s). Interestingly, one faint, H_alpha emission star, which is the closest to the exciting star(s), seems to be a young brown dwarf that was formed by the UV impact in advance of the formation of other YSOs at the tip.

Probing dark energy with cluster counts and cosmic shear power spectra: including the full covariance
Creators: name: Takada, Masahiro
name: Bridle, Sarah
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: (Abridged) Combining cosmic shear power spectra and cluster counts is powerful to improve cosmological parameter constraints and/or test inherent systematics. However they probe the same cosmic mass density field, if the two are drawn from the same survey region, and therefore the combination may be less powerful than first thought. We investigate the cross-covariance between the cosmic shear power spectra and the cluster counts based on the halo model approach, where the cross-covariance arises from the three-point correlations of the underlying mass density field. Fully taking into account the cross-covariance as well as non-Gaussian errors on the lensing power spectrum covariance, we find a significant cross-correlation between the lensing power spectrum signals at multipoles l~10^3 and the cluster counts containing halos with masses M>10^{14}Msun. Including the cross-covariance for the combined measurement degrades and in some cases improves the total signal-to-noise ratios up to plus or minus 20% relative to when the two are independent. For cosmological parameter determination, the cross-covariance has a smaller effect as a result of working in a multi-dimensional parameter space, implying that the two observables can be considered independent to a good approximation. We also discuss that cluster count experiments using lensing-selected mass peaks could be more complementary to cosmic shear tomography than mass-selected cluster counts of the corresponding mass threshold. Using lensing selected clusters with a realistic usable detection threshold (S/N~6 for a ground-based survey), the uncertainty on each dark energy parameter may be roughly halved by the combined experiments, relative to using the power spectra alone.

description: In ordinary gravitational theories, any local bulk operator in an entanglement wedge is accompanied by a long-range gravitational dressing that extends to the asymptotic part of the wedge. Islands are the only known examples of entanglement wedges that are disconnected from the asymptotic region of spacetime. In this paper, we show that the lack of an asymptotic region in islands creates a potential puzzle that involves the gravitational Gauss law, independently of whether or not there is a non-gravitational bath. In a theory with long-range gravity, the energy of an excitation localized to the island can be detected from outside the island, in contradiction with the principle that operators in an entanglement wedge should commute with operators from its complement. In several known examples, we show that this tension is resolved because islands appear in conjunction with a massive graviton. We also derive some additional consistency conditions that must be obeyed by islands in decoupled systems. Our arguments suggest that islands might not constitute consistent entanglement wedges in standard theories of massless gravity where the Gauss law applies.

description: We present the complete two-loop corrections in massless QCD for the production of two photons and a jet, taking into account all color structures. In particular, we analytically compute all two-loop helicity amplitudes for the quark-antiquark, quark-gluon, and antiquark-gluon channel, and check them with an independent calculation of the polarization-summed interference with the tree amplitude. This is the first time that two-loop QCD corrections to a five-point scattering process have been computed beyond the leading-color approximation for all helicity configurations.

description: Σκοπός της διατριβής ήταν η τροποποίηση τριδιάστατου εκτυπωτή φωτοπολυμερισμού τεχνολογίας στερεολιθογραφίας με μάσκα, με στόχο να επεκταθεί το ωφέλιμο ύψος εκτύπωσης από 400 mm σε 2000 mm, ώστε να εκτυπώνονται αντικείμενα μεγάλων διαστάσεων. Αρχικά, διεξήχθησαν στατικές αναλύσεις προκειμένου να αναπτυχθεί ο κατάλληλος σχεδιασμός και να διασφαλιστεί ταυτόχρονα η ακρίβεια της εκτύπωσης. Στη συνέχεια, κατασκευάστηκαν και συναρμολογήθηκαν τα εξαρτήματα που σχεδιάστηκαν για την επέκταση του ωφέλιμου ύψους εκτύπωσης. Έπειτα, πραγματοποιήθηκαν δοκιμαστικές εκτυπώσεις προκειμένου να αξιολογηθεί η λειτουργικότητα και η ακρίβεια του τροποποιημένου εκτυπωτή. Επιπλέον, κατά τη διάρκεια των δοκιμαστικών εκτυπώσεων, μελετήθηκαν οι επιπτώσεις των διαφορετικών παραμέτρων εκτύπωσης στην τελική ποιότητα των αντικειμένων, καθώς και η συμπεριφορά των αντικειμένων κατά τη διάρκεια της εκτύπωσης με ρητίνες διαφορετικών μηχανικών ιδιοτήτων.
description: The purpose of the present thesis was the modification of a photoplymer 3d printer using masked stereolithography technology, aiming to extend the printing height from 400 mm to 2000 mm, in order to print large – scale objects. Initially, static analyses were performed to develop an appropriate design and ensure printing accuracy. Subsequently, the components designed to extend the printing height were constructed and assembled. Then, test prints were carried out to evaluate the functionality and accuracy of the modified printer. Additionally, during the test prints, the effects of different printing parameters on the final quality of the objects were studied, as well as the behavior of the objects during printing using resins with different mechanical properties.

description: A nonperturbative lattice study of QCD at finite chemical potential is complicated due to the complex fermion determinant and the sign problem. Here we apply the method of stochastic quantization and complex Langevin dynamics to this problem. We present results for U(1) and SU(3) one link models and QCD at finite chemical potential using the hopping expansion. The phase of the determinant is studied in detail. Even in the region where the sign problem is severe, we find excellent agreement between the Langevin results and exact expressions, if available. We give a partial understanding of this in terms of classical flow diagrams and eigenvalues of the Fokker-Planck equation.

description: We investigate the interplay of Coulomb interactions and correlated disorder in pseudospin-3/2 semimetals, which exhibit birefringent spectra in the absence of interactions. Coulomb interactions drive the system to a marginal Fermi liquid, both for the two-dimensional (2d) and three-dimensional (3d) cases. Short-ranged correlated disorder in 2d, or a power-law correlated disorder 3d, has the same engineering dimension as the Coulomb term, in a renormalization group (RG) sense. In order to analyze the combined effects of these two kinds of interactions, we apply a dimensional regularization scheme and derive the RG flow equations. The results show that the marginal Fermi liquid phase is robust against disorder.

Brane tunneling and virtual brane-antibrane pairs

description: We survey barrier penetration by quantum tunneling for four cases: nonrelativistic point particles, scalar fields, relativistic point particles, and DBI branes. We examine two novel features that arise for DBI brane tunneling: the rate can sometimes increase as the barrier gets higher; and the instanton "wrinkles". We show that these features can be understood as the effect of the quantum sea of virtual brane-antibrane pairs. This sea exponentially augments the decay rate, with possible cosmological consequences.

description: BaBiO$_3$ is a charged ordered Peierls-like perovskite well known for its superconducting properties upon K or Pb doping. We present a study on the transport and electronic properties of BaBiO$_3$ perovskite with strong Bi-deficiency. We show that it is possible to synthesize BaBiO$_3$ thin layers with Bi-vacancies above 8-10% by depositing an yttrium-stabilized zirconia capping layer. By combining transport measurements with ab initio calculations we propose an scenario where the Bi-vacancies give rise to the formation of polarons and suggest that the electrical transport is dominated by the migration of these polarons trapped at Bi$^{3+}$ sites. Our work shows that cation vacancies engineering -- hardly explored to date -- appears as a promising pathway to tune the electronic and functional properties of perovskites.
The debeamed luminosity, sychrotron peak frequency and black hole mass of BL Lac objects

description: We estimate the intrinsic luminosities and synchrotron peak frequency using the derived Doppler factor for a sample of 170 BL Lac objects, of which the synchrotron peak frequency are derived by fitting the SED constructed with the collected multi-band data from literatures. We find that the debeamed radio and optical core luminosities follow the same correlation found for FR I radio galaxies, which is in support of the unification of the BL Lac objects and the FR I galaxies based on orientation. For the debeamed luminosity at synchrotron peak frequency, we find a significant positive correlation between the luminosity and intrinsic synchrotron peak frequency. This implies that the more powerful sources may have the majority of jet emission at higher frequency. At synchrotron peak frequency, the intrinsic luminosity and black hole mass show strong positive correlation, while mild correlation is found in the case of jet power, indicating that the more powerful sources may have heavier black hole.
