Free surface and variable volume in the NEMO code

description: Historically, the NEMO system (Madec et al. 1998) was built for climate studies using strong hypothesis on the dynamics, such as the “rigid lid” approximation, which eliminates the fast gravity waves. A first improvement (Roullet and Madec 2000) was made by implementing a free surface while filtering the fast external gravity waves, which allows one to keep a large time step. Roullet and Madec (2000) compared a linear formulation (with fixed volume) with a non-linear one (with a variable first level thickness), and concluded that the linear formulation was the best compromise for climate (the linear formulation does not strictly conserve the ocean salt content unlike the non-linear formulation, but the differences were not large enough to play a large role in the experiments of Roullet and Madec (2000)).

People interested in regional and/or coastal studies must simulate rapidly phenomena with short spatial scales, such as tidal waves. With the filtering scheme of Roullet and Madec (2000), these phenomena are very rapidly damped, or not simulated at all (Talandier et al. 2003). That’s why a time-splitting scheme has recently been implemented, which allows the representation of the fast dynamics, while keeping a large time step (Bessières 2003). But this is not sufficient: although the free surface is implemented, the vertical grid of the model is fixed in time. This fact does not allow a good representation of tidal waves, and as mentioned above it precludes an exact conservation of the salt content. This is why the decision was made, as part of the MERSEA European project, to implement a variable volume in the NEMO system.

In this report, we first review the representation of the free surface in the NEMO system, with the different schemes available at the present time (chapter1). Then we introduce the equations of the free surface and the implementations induced by the variable volume (chapter 2). We present two kind of experiments in order to investigate the behaviour of the model with the variable volume implemented; chapter 3 focusses on the conservation of salt content, and chapter 4 on the representation of a gravity wave.

description: The concept of the compressed workweek (CWW) is not a new phenomenon, as research has shown that it improves work-life balance and can reduce mental and physical health problems. On the contrary, the construction industry is renowned as being a notoriously overworked sector plagued by presenteeism. This research aims to identify if a CWW (four-day) is viable for work-life balance in the Irish construction industry. Taking a mixed methods research approach, six semi?structured individual interviews were undertaken with the emerging themes being analysed thematically combined with a questionnaire survey distributed to industry professionals and analysed using statistical review techniques. The findings showed that many in the workforce have a range of health problems from working long hours with a consequent detrimental effect on their productivity. People have an unsatisfactory work-life balance in a highly pressurised industry, and a CWW is viewed as a highly desired solution to address this problem. The contribution of this exploratory study is that it demonstrates that a four-day CWW is viable and can improve the lifestyle and work-life balance of the Irish construction industry workforce.

description: Quantum information theorists have created axiomatic reconstructions of quantum mechanics (QM) that are very successful at identifying precisely what distinguishes quantum probability theory from classical and more general probability theories in terms of information-theoretic principles. Herein, we show how one such principle, Information Invariance & Continuity, at the foundation of those axiomatic reconstructions maps to "no preferred reference frame" (NPRF, aka "the relativity principle") as it pertains to the invariant measurement of Planck's constant h for Stern-Gerlach (SG) spin measurements. This is in exact analogy to the relativity principle as it pertains to the invariant measurement of the speed of light c at the foundation of special relativity (SR). Essentially, quantum information theorists have extended Einstein's use of NPRF from the boost invariance of measurements of c to include the SO(3) invariance of measurements of h between different reference frames of mutually complementary spin measurements via the principle of Information Invariance & Continuity. Consequently, the "mystery" of the Bell states that is responsible for the Tsirelson bound and the exclusion of the no-signalling, "superquantum" Popescu-Rohrlich joint probabilities is understood to result from conservation per Information Invariance & Continuity between different reference frames of mutually complementary qubit measurements, and this maps to conservation per NPRF in spacetime. If one falsely conflates the relativity principle with the classical theory of SR, then it may seem impossible that the relativity principle resides at the foundation of non-relativisitic QM. In fact, there is nothing inherently classical or quantum about NPRF. Thus, the axiomatic reconstructions of QM have succeeded in producing a principle account of QM that reveals as much about Nature as the postulates of SR.

Beyond Caustic Crossings: Properties of Binary Microlensing Light Curves

description: Binary microlensing light curves have a variety of morphologies. Many are indistinguishable from point lens light curves. Of those that deviate from the point lens form, caustic crossing light curves have tended to dominate identified binary lens events. Other distinctive signatures of binary lenses include significant asymmetry, multiple peaks, and repeating events. We have quantified, using high resolution simulations, the theoretically expected relative numbers of each type of binary lens event, based on its measurable characteristics. We find that a microlensing survey with current levels of photometric uncertainty and sampling should find at least as many non-caustic crossing binary lens events as caustic crossing events; in future surveys with more sensitive photometry, the contribution of distinctive non-caustic crossing events will be even greater. To try to explain why caustic crossing light curves appear to be so dominant among the published binary lensing events, we investigate the influence of several physical effects, including blending, sampling rate, and various binary populations.

Year: 2010

description: A software package and associated hardware have been developed which gives users of the ORAC CNC Training Lathe an easier and faster method of manufacturing on the lathe. The package, entitled ORACAP, uses the computing power of a mini-mainframe computer, a VAX 11/750, to assist in part design, program generation, program optimization, and program proving for the ORAC Lathe. The package is designed for users unfamiliar with computers such as students in an educational institute or workers in a production facility and uses command procedures to simplify the preparation and execution of the modules of the package. In addition to providing users with a valuable tool for manufacturing, ORACAP also gives users insight into the Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Manufacturing methods used in industry, that is, it demonstrates the methods which allow production of a part from a very concise description of its geometry. Finally, ORACAP demonstrates the production advantages of a CAD/CAM system over conventional manufacturing methods for small to medium size batch production.

¿Qué son las perspectivas queer-crip? Una introducción para bioeticistas

Diversidad funcional
Estudios de la discapacidad
Inequidades estructurales

description: Numerosas corrientes teóricas que participan en las discusiones del campo bioético han defendido ideas diametralmente opuestas a las demandas de las personas con diversidad funcional, comúnmente llamadas personas con discapacidad. Múltiples estudios desde la medicina, el derecho y la filosofía tomaron a estas personas sólo como objetos de estudio. Esto produjo una visión sesgada de las experiencias, la calidad de vida, las necesidades y las inequidades estructurales que las propias personas han identificado, relevado y desarrollado desde el activismo y la academia, generalmente desde puntos de vista marginales a las principales posiciones en bioética.
 En este trabajo, propongo algunas conexiones existentes y potenciales entre algunos problemas fundamentales de la bioética y lo que llamo “perspectivas queer-crip” (pronunciación: cuir-crip), un término paraguas que reúne desarrollos teóricos surgidos de los movimientos sociales y los Estudios de la discapacidad. Aquí defenderé que las perspectivas queercrip aportan articulaciones teóricas novedosas para dar respuesta a dilemas relacionados con la autonomía, la salud y la justicia, pero también con el lugar social que ocupa la propia bioética. Esto es así por dos razones. Primero, porque las perspectivas queer-crip permiten estudiar la complejidad de la agencia en entornos altamente restrictivos a partir del análisis de los efectos performativos y de los regímenes sociales de obligatoriedad. Segundo, porque exponen las formas en que tanto la discapacidad, como el género y la sexualidad, son producidas en condiciones sociales inequitativas que fijan un ideal funcional y sexual determinado, a la vez que definen atributos alternativos como deficiencias. En consecuencia, las perspectivas queer-crip permiten mostrar que la creencia común, altamente respaldada por intelectuales y bioeticistas, que considera que la diversidad funcional tiene necesariamente un impacto negativo en el bienestar de las personas y que sería recomendable eliminarla de la experiencia humana, se ha nutrido de prejuicios identitarios negativos y estándares estrictos de apariencia, funcionamiento y comportamiento provenientes de sistemas de pensamiento falaces que reproducen inequidades estructurales.
 En contraste, presentaré nuevos recursos epistémicos y metodológicos superadores de la lectura dominante de los cuerpos, que obstaculiza el acceso a una mejor comprensión de las discusiones, con la apuesta de contribuir a un modelo ético aplicable que permita contrarrestar estas concepciones en el campo bioético en general.

description: El presnte capítulo aborda la relación entre el psicoanálisis y la psicología crítica. Se distinguen primeramente dos formas principales adoptadas por esta relación: una en la que el enfoque psicoanalítico es el objeto criticado y otra en la que se utiliza como un medio teórico para volverse críticamente hacia el campo psicológico. En la revisión de la crítica del psicoanálisis como objeto, después de recordarse brevemente el trabajo de los pioneros Voloshinov, Politzer y Vygotsky, se presta especial atención a los importantes cuestionamientos realizados por Holzkamp y Parker. Luego, al revisarse el empleo de la teoría freudiana como recurso de la psicología crítica, se muestra cómo el psicoanálisis repolitizado ha inspirado a los psicólogos radicales, a los exponentes de la psicología crítica psicoanalítica alemana y a otros autores afines, mientras que el psicoanálisis despsicologizado ha nutrido el trabajo de los seguidores de Althusser y Lacan. Finalmente, se ahonda en los principales planteamientos de quienes se adscriben actualmente a la corriente lacaniana de psicología crítica.

description: In 2005, Yang, Wang, and Chang proposed an improved timestamp-based password authentication scheme in an attempt to overcome the flaws of Yang-Shieh_s legendary timestamp-based remote authentication scheme using smart cards. After analyzing the improved scheme proposed by Yang-Wang-Chang, we have found that their scheme is still insecure and vulnerable to four types of forgery attacks. Hence, in this paper, we prove that, their claim that their scheme is intractable is incorrect. Also, we show that even an attack based on Sun et al._s attack could be launched against their scheme which they claimed to resolve with their proposal.

title: Strategy narratives in Turkish international contracting: Mobilising the past as a means of creating a heroic identity
Creators: name: Ulutas Duman, Dilek
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2020

description: This research is about competitive strategy in the international construction sector. Drawing on the ‘narrative turn’ in organisation studies, it emphasises the temporal and discursively constructed nature of competitive strategy. The central argument of the narrative approach is that individuals, and by extension practitioners involved in strategy, make sense of the world by telling stories. Such stories are continuously mobilized to constitute an overall sense of coherence and direction with direct material implications. This ongoing process of narrative construction resonates with ‘identity work’. The current study, therefore, proposes ‘identity work’ as a key strategic practice which is directly implicated in shaping not only the trajectory of individual contracting firms, but also the Turkish construction sector as a whole. The empirical analysis focuses on strategy narratives as mobilized within the Turkish international contracting sector. Competitive strategy narratives are seen to provide a means of understanding the formation and enactment of strategy. Turkish contractors have projected themselves increasingly successful, often operating in turbulent, high-risk markets characterized by conflict, political discord and stark discontinuities. They describe themselves as the heroes of turbulent markets, especially in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) and former Soviet Union (USSR) countries. In contrast, much of the literature on competitive strategy is characterised by assumptions of economic and political stability. Such assumptions may well be justified in the markets of North America and Western Europe, but they have little resonance with the regions targeted by Turkish contractors. The adopted narrative approach provides a retrospective and contextual understanding of the competitive strategy of Turkish contractors through the analysis of sectoral and individual narratives. The empirical data covers a sectoral narrative, published as a quasi-historical book and 30 narrative interviews carried out with experienced managers from Turkish contracting firms. The empirical analysis focuses on the ‘narrative infrastructure’ as continuously co-constructed by the narratives at sectoral and individual level. The findings highlight the multi-actor and multi-level processes of strategy making. Narrative analysis demonstrates the way in which actors, actions and events are positioned within a plot structure, with direct implications for the enactment of future strategic practices. The findings suggest that strategic actions can only ever be identified in retrospect, and that such arguments are always made with an eye on the future.

description: The baryon asymmetry of the universe may be explained by rotations of the QCD axion in field space and baryon number violating processes. We consider the minimal extension of the Standard Model by a non-Abelian gauge interaction, $SU(2)_R$, whose sphaleron process violates baryon number. Assuming that axion dark matter is also created from the axion rotation by the kinetic misalignment mechanism, the mass scale of the $SU(2)_R$ gauge boson is fixed as a function of the QCD axion decay constant, and vise versa. Significant portion of the parameter space has already been excluded by new gauge boson searches, and the high-luminocity LHC will further probe the viable parameter space.

description: The term cancer covers a multitude of bodily diseases, broadly categorised by having cells which do not behave normally. Since cancer cells can arise from any type of cell in the body, cancers can grow in or around any tissue or organ making the disease highly complex. Our research is focused on understanding the specific mechanisms that occur in the tumour microenvironment via mathematical and computational modeling. We present a 3D individual-based model which allows one to simulate the behaviour of, and spatio-temporal interactions between, cells, extracellular matrix fibres and blood vessels. Each agent (a single cell, for example) is fully realised within the model and interactions are primarily governed by mechanical forces between elements. However, as well as the mechanical interactions we also consider chemical interactions, for example, by coupling the code to a finite element solver to model the diffusion of oxygen from blood vessels to cells. The current state of the art of the model allows us to simulate tumour growth around an arbitrary blood-vessel network or along the striations of fibrous tissue.

description: We present an universal treatment for a substantial nuclear suppression representing a common feature of all known reactions on nuclear targets (forward production of high-pT hadrons, production of direct photons, the Drell-Yan process, heavy flavor production, etc.). Such a suppression at large Feynman xF, corresponding to region of minimal light-cone momentum fraction variable x2 in nuclei, is tempting to interpret as a manifestation of coherence or the Color Glass Condensate. We demonstrate, however, that it is actually a simple consequence of energy conservation and takes place even at low energies, where no effects of coherence are possible. We analyze this common suppression mechanism for several processes performing model predictions in the light-cone dipole approach. Our calculations agree with data.

description: This thesis addresses the automatic analysis of speech disorders resulting from a clinical condition (Parkinson's disease and hearing loss) or the natural aging process. For Parkinson's disease, the progression of speech symptoms is evaluated by considering speech recordings captured in the short-term (4 months) and long-term (5 years). Machine learning methods are used to perform three tasks: (1) automatic classification of patients vs. healthy speakers. (2) regression analysis to predict the dysarthria level and neurological state. (3) speaker embeddings to analyze the progression of the speech symptoms over time. For hearing loss, automatic acoustic analysis is performed to evaluate whether the duration and onset of deafness (before or after speech acquisition) influence the speech production of cochlear implant users. Additionally, articulation, prosody, and phonemic analyses show that cochlear implant users present altered speech production even after hearing rehabilitation.

description: Observations of the synchrotron and inverse Compton emissions from ultrarelativistic electrons in astrophysical sources can reveal a great deal about the energy-momentum relations of those electrons. They can thus be used to place bounds on the possibility of Lorentz violation in the electron sector. Recent $γ$-ray telescope data allow the Lorentz-violating electron $c^{νμ}$ parameters to be constrained extremely well, so that all bounds are at the level of $7\times 10^{-16}$ or better.

description: The dependence of breakup cross sections of 8B at 65 MeV/nucleon on the target mass number A_T is investigated by means of the continuum-discretized coupled-channels method (CDCC) with more reliable distorting potentials than those in the preceding study. The A_T^(1/3) scaling law of the nuclear breakup cross section is found to be satisfied only in the middle A_T region of 40 < A_T < 150. The interference between nuclear and Coulomb breakup amplitudes vanishes in very forward angle scattering, independently of the target nucleus. The truncation of the relative energy between the p and 7Be fragments slightly reduces the contribution of nuclear breakup at very forward angles, while the angular region in which the first-order perturbation theory works well does not change essentially.

description: The radiation hardness of silicon charged particle sensors is compared with single crystal and polycrystalline diamond sensors, both experimentally and theoretically. It is shown that for Si- and C-sensors, the NIEL hypothesis, which states that the signal loss is proportional to the Non-Ionizing Energy Loss, is a good approximation to the present data. At incident proton and neutron energies well above 0.1 GeV the radiation damage is dominated by the inelastic cross section, while at non-relativistic energies the elastic cross section prevails. The smaller inelastic nucleon-Carbon cross section and the light nuclear fragments imply that at high energies diamond is an order of magnitude more radiation hard than silicon, while at energies below 0.1 GeV the difference becomes significantly smaller.

description: In the automotive industry, predicting noise during design cycle is a necessary step. Well-known methods exist to answer this issue in low frequency domain. Among these, Finite Element Methods, adapted to closed domains, are quite easy to implement whereas Boundary Element Methods are more adapted to infinite domains, but may induce singularity problems. In this article, the described method, the SDM, allows to use both methods in their best application domain. A new method is also presented to solve the SDM exterior problem. Instead of using Boundary Element Methods, an original use of Finite Elements is made. Efficiency of this new version of the Substructure Deletion Method is discussed.

description: One of the possible low-energy consequences of string theory is the addition of a Chern-Simons term to the standard Einstein-Hilbert action of general relativity. It can be argued that the quintessence field should couple to this Chern-Simons term, and if so, it drives in the linearized theory a parity-violating interaction between the gravito-electric and gravitomagnetic fields. In this paper, the linearized spacetime for Chern-Simons gravity around a massive spinning body is found to include new modifications to the gravitomagnetic field that have not appeared in previous work. The orbits of test bodies and the precession of gyroscopes in this spacetime are calculated, leading to new constraints on the Chern-Simons parameter space due to current satellite experiments.

description: The topological insulator is an electronic phase stabilized by spin-orbit coupling that supports propagating edge states and is not adiabatically connected to the ordinary insulator. In several ways it is a spin-orbit-induced analogue in time-reversal-invariant systems of the integer quantum Hall effect (IQHE). This paper studies the topological insulator phase in disordered two-dimensional systems, using a model graphene Hamiltonian introduced by Kane and Mele as an example. The nonperturbative definition of a topological insulator given here is distinct from previous efforts in that it involves boundary phase twists that couple only to charge, does not refer to edge states, and can be measured by pumping cycles of ordinary charge. In this definition, the phase of a Slater determinant of electronic states is determined by a Chern parity analogous to Chern number in the IQHE case. Numerically we find, in agreement with recent network model studies, that the direct transition between ordinary and topological insulators that occurs in band structures is a consequence of the perfect crystalline lattice. Generically these two phases are separated by a metallic phase, which is allowed in two dimensions when spin-orbit coupling is present. The same approach can be used to study three-dimensional topological insulators.

description: Popular approximations to the exchange-correlation (xc) energy of density functional theory do not yield the spatial `step' structures in the exact xc potential which are necessary to describe dissociation and electron excitation with the Kohn-Sham (KS) system. Via the discontinuity in the derivative of the xc energy as a function of electron number I derive exact analytic expressions in terms of the KS single-particle energies for the height of the step in the xc potential between a variety of open- and closed-shell atoms within stretched molecules.

The PREFER Research Agenda - Identifying Methodological Priorities for Patient Preferences Research Using Stakeholder Input
Creators: name: DiSantostefano, Rachael L.
name: Smith, Ian P.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021
Subjects: Webinar

description: In order to develop the PREFER research agenda, a series of qualitative and quantitative assessments was conducted engaging stakeholders who are involved in planning, execution, and/or evaluation of patient preference research across the medical product lifecycle. The result of these assessments was a list of methodological questions of concern to these stakeholders. These questions were then used to guide the design of cases studies in PREFER for use in informing recommendations related to the design and conduct of patient preference research. However, the PREFER case studies could not address all important methodological questions. This webinar will present the process used to develop the list of questions, show which questions were addressed within PREFER case studies, and identify areas where others are welcome to further contribute to future methodological research.
1E 1547.0-5408: a radio-emitting magnetar with a rotation period of 2 seconds

description: The variable X-ray source 1E 1547.0-5408 was identified by Gelfand & Gaensler (2007) as a likely magnetar in G327.24-0.13, an apparent supernova remnant. No X-ray pulsations have been detected from it. Using the Parkes radio telescope, we discovered pulsations with period P = 2.069 s. Using the Australia Telescope Compact Array, we localized these to 1E 1547.0-5408. We measure dP/dt = (2.318+-0.005)e-11, which for a magnetic dipole rotating in vacuo gives a surface field strength of 2.2e14 G, a characteristic age of 1.4 kyr, and a spin-down luminosity of 1.0e35 ergs/s. Together with its X-ray characteristics, these rotational parameters of 1E 1547.0-5408 prove that it is a magnetar, only the second known to emit radio waves. The distance is ~9 kpc, derived from the dispersion measure of 830 pc/cc. The pulse profile at a frequency of 1.4 GHz is extremely broad and asymmetric due to multipath propagation in the ISM, as a result of which only approximately 75% of the total flux at 1.4 GHz is pulsed. At higher frequencies the profile is more symmetric and has FWHM = 0.12P. Unlike in normal radio pulsars, but in common with the other known radio-emitting magnetar, XTE J1810-197, the spectrum over 1.4-6.6 GHz is flat or rising, and we observe large, sudden changes in the pulse shape. In a contemporaneous Swift X-ray observation, 1E 1547.0-5408 was detected with record high flux, f_X(1-8 keV) ~ 5e-12 ergs/cm^2/s, 16 times the historic minimum. The pulsar was undetected in archival radio observations from 1998, implying a flux < 0.2 times the present level. Together with the transient behavior of XTE J1810-197, these results suggest that radio emission is triggered by X-ray outbursts of usually quiescent magnetars.

Influence of environmental factors on insect pollinators in Northern Serbia
Creators: name: Markov Ristić Zlata

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021
Subjects: pollinator diversity, pollinator abundance, habitat types, land use

description: One of the major consequences of anthropogenic influence is the evident decrease in the diversity and number of insect pollinators. Being highly vulnerable ecosystem service, mainly due to agricultural intensification, the spread of diseases and parasites, and pesticide pollution, loss of pollinator diversity may lead to loss of other species that directly or indirectly rely on them and could have significant economic impacts by reducing crop pollination services. In this study, we examined the relationship between environmental variables (altitude, distance from the nearest agricultural area, grazing intensity, and mowing) on the composition and abundance of pollinator species. Pollinators were sampled on the territory of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina in the Republic of Serbia, on four types of habitats categorised according to the CORINE land cover classification as classes 2.1.1 Non-irrigated arable land, 2.4.3 Land principally occupied by agriculture, with significant areas of natural vegetation, 3.1.1 Broad-leaved forest and 3.2.1 Natural grassland. Our results showed a significant correlation between the composition of pollinator species and the overall set of environmental factors. We found that forest, followed by grassland habitats, had the most diverse pollinator communities. Localities under grazing and mowing appeared to be less diverse in pollinators, whereby agricultural areas had the lowest pollinator diversity. Our findings suggest that the diversity of pollinators is highly influenced by land use and confirm the importance of forest habitats in agricultural landscapes such as Vojvodina Authonomous Province in Serbia as important refuge habitats for foraging
 and nesting of pollinators.
Doppler centroid ambiguity estimation for synthetic aperture radar
Creators: name: Kavanagh, Patricia F.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: For a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system, the Doppler centroid is the azimuth Doppler frequency received from a point scatterer centered in the azimuth antenna pattern. This parameter is required by the SAR processor in order to properly focus SAR images. Since the azimuth Doppler spectrum is weighted by the azimuth antenna pattern, the Doppler centroid can be determined by locating the peak of the Doppler spectrum. This measurement, however, is ambiguous because the azimuth Doppler spectrum is aliased by the radar pulse repetition frequency (PRF). To resolve the ambiguity, the antenna beam angle, which determines the Doppler centroid, is measured; the accuracy of this measurement must be high enough to determine the Doppler centroid to within ±PRF/2. For some SAR systems, such as the future Radarsat system, the beam angle measurement must be very accurate; this can be technically infeasible or too costly to implement. This thesis examines an alternative approach to resolving the Doppler centroid ambiguity which does not require accurate beam angle measurement In most SAR processors, several partial azimuth aperture "looks" are processed, rather than a single long aperture, in order to yield a final SAR image with reduced speckle noise. If the Doppler centroid is in error by an integer number of PRFs, then the SAR looks will be defocussed and misregistered in range. The degree of misregistration depends on with which Doppler centroid ambiguity the data is processed. The new method for Doppler centroid ambiguity estimation measures the range displacement of SAR looks using a cross-correlation of looks in the range direction. The theoretical background and details of the new method are discussed. The effects of differing terrain types, wave motion, and errors in the azimuth frequency modulation (FM) rate are addressed. The feasibility of the approach is demonstrated by testing the cross-correlation algorithm on available Seasat data processed with simulated Doppler centroid ambiguity errors. The Seasat analysis is extrapolated to the Radarsat system with favourable results.

Relativistic Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions and the QCD Matter Phase Diagram

description: This review will be concerned with our knowledge of extended matter under the governance of strong interaction, in short: QCD matter. Strictly speaking, the hadrons are representing the first layer of extended QCD architecture. In fact we encounter the characteristic phenomena of confinement as distances grow to the scale of 1 fm (i.e. hadron size): loss of the chiral symmetry property of the elementary QCD Lagrangian via non-perturbative generation of "massive" quark and gluon condensates, that replace the bare QCD vacuum. However, given such first experiences of transition from short range perturbative QCD phenomena (jet physics etc.), toward extended, non perturbative QCD hadron structure, we shall proceed here to systems with dimensions far exceeding the force range: matter in the interior of heavy nuclei, or in neutron stars, and primordial matter in the cosmological era from electro-weak decoupling (10^-12 s) to hadron formation (0.5 10^-5 s). This primordial matter, prior to hadronization, should be deconfined in its QCD sector, forming a plasma (i.e. color conducting) state of quarks and gluons: the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP).
