Obsolescence as an Opportunity: The Role of Adaptive Reuse in Calgary's Office Market

Year: 2021

description: Though remote work has become a necessity during the COVID-19 pandemic, the rise of office vacancy is not a new issue to Calgary. Economic booms and busts are mirrored by accompanying levels of construction, occupancy and vacancy. The most recent recession brought an unprecedented loss of jobs and subsequent partial or complete vacancy of buildings in Calgary’s Central Business District (CBD). This new reality led to the agglomeration and elimination of businesses and re-evaluation of the necessity of office space and its associated costs. Trends in the knowledge economy and ways of working over the preceding decades have coincided with associated vacancy of office space that is no longer adaptable to the changing needs and demands of office design. These patterns have reduced the demand of certain office stock and highlighted limits on its versatility and capacity to be repurposed, making a certain proportion of buildings relatively obsolete. Office conversion, being changing the use or uses of a building, has also become increasingly arduous with updates in planning rules and building, energy and safety codes. When considering conversion of office to other uses the standard solution usually discussed is office to residential conversion. While this may present as the optimal approach in some cases, there are many limitations when it comes to converting buildings. Since the economic downturn some projects have been piloted by the City of Calgary to facilitate office conversion including the Centre City Enterprise Area. While some successes have come from these relatively short-term solutions they have been limited in addressing the full extent of the situation. These small-scale interventions were successful in reducing customer costs and timelines however did not result in recommendations of longer-term solutions for widespread changes. Complex problems such as office vacancy in Calgary require comprehensive, adaptable and innovative strategies. To update and improve the existing processes to more simply enable office conversion or adaptation there is a necessity to clearly outline the role of everyone involved, the limitations, and the potential options that may exist. In this regard it is not simply the question of the use of land and the building footprint but also the building owner, the surrounding stakeholders including business associations, municipal government, provincial government and a variety of other related parties. This paper examines the present state of office vacancy in downtown Calgary; looks at barriers to office conversion, limitations in existing processes and structures and potential policy considerations, drawing upon best practices from other jurisdictions. Finally, it will conclude with a series of policy recommendations and mechanisms which may enable efficiency and innovation in addressing the existing office stock.

description: We explore electroweak precision observables (EWPO) and $B$-physics observables (BPO) in the CMSSM, the mGMSB and the mAMSB. We perform a chi^2 analysis based on the combination of current EWPO and BPO data. For the first time this allows the comparison of the mGMSB and mAMSB in terms of EWPO and BPO with the CMSSM. We find that relatively low mass scales in all three scenarios are favored. However, the current data from EWPO and BPO can hardly exclude any parameters at the level of Delta chi^2 = 9. Remarkably the mAMSB scenario, despite having one free GUT scale parameter less than the other two scenarios, has a somewhat lower total minimum chi^2. We present predictions for the lightest Higgs boson mass, based on the chi^2 analysis of current data, where relatively good compatibility with the bounds from Higgs searches at LEP is found. We also present the predictions for other Higgs sector parameters and SUSY mass scales, allowing to compare the reach of the LHC and the ILC in the three scenarios. We furthermore explore the future sensitivities of the EWPO and BPO for the current best-fit results and for a hypothetical point with somewhat higher mass scales that results in a similar Higgs and SUSY spectrum in the three scenarios. We find that the future improvement of the accuracy of the EWPO and BPO will lead to a significant gain in the indirect parameter determination. The improvement is similar in the CMSSM, mGMSB and mAMSB and will yield constraints to the parameter space even for heavy Higgs and SUSY mass scales.

description: Semiconductivity and superconductivity are remarkable quantum phenomena that have immense impact on science and technology, and materials that can be tuned, usually by pressure or doping, to host both types of quantum states are of great fundamental and practical significance. Here we show by first-principles calculations a distinct route for tuning semiconductors into superconductors by diverse large-range elastic shear strains, as demonstrated in exemplary cases of silicon and silicon carbide. Analysis of strain driven evolution of bonding structure, electronic states, lattice vibration, and electron-phonon coupling unveils robust pervading deformation induced mechanisms auspicious for modulating semiconducting and superconducting states under versatile material conditions. This finding opens vast untapped structural configurations for rational exploration of tunable emergence and transition of these intricate quantum phenomena in a broad range of materials.
Deconstructing triplet nucleon-nucleon scattering

description: Nucleon-nucleon scattering in spin-triplet channels is analysed within an effective field theory where one-pion exchange is treated nonperturbatively. Justifying this requires the identification of an additional low-energy scale in the strength of that potential. Short-range interactions are organised according to the resulting power counting, in which the leading term is promoted to significantly lower order than in the usual perturbative counting. In each channel there is a critical momentum above which the waves probe the singular core of the tensor potential and the new counting is necessary. When the effects of one- and two-pion exchange have been removed using a distorted-wave Born approximation, the residual scattering in waves with L<=2 is well described by the first three terms in the new counting. In contrast, the scattering in waves with L>=3 is consistent with the perturbative counting, at least for energies up to 300 MeV. This pattern is in agreement with estimates of the critical momenta in these channels.

In particular we reconsider some examples treated by Ghoudi and Remillard [Asymptotic Methods in Probability and Statistics (1998) 171--197, Fields Inst. Commun. 44 (2004) 381--406]. We recast their examples in terms of empirical process theory, and provide an alternative general view which should be of wide applicability.

Molecular field approximation in theory of ferromagnetic phase transition in diluted magnetic semiconductors

description: In this pedagogical paper, the comparative analysis of two common approaches describing the ferromagnetic phase transition in diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) is expounded in terms of Weiss field approximation. Assuming a finite spin polarization of the magnetic ions, the treatment of carrier-ion exchange interaction in first order evokes the homogeneous Weiss molecular field that polarizes the spins of free carriers. In turn, this spin polarization of the free carriers exerts the effective field that may stabilize DMS spin polarization below a critical temperature Tc. The treatment of such self-consistent spontaneous DMS magnetization can be done in terms of spin-spin interaction independent on inter-ion distance and infinitesimal in thermodynamic limit. On the other hand, the taking additionally into account the second order effects of carrier-ion exchange interaction treat a Weiss field in term of the RKKY indirect spin-spin interaction, which oscillates and not disappears at finite inter-ion distance in case of finite carriers concentration. These both approaches result in same Curie temperature Tc provided non-correlated homogeneous random distribution of the localized spin moments over sample volume. We discuss the origin of such coincidence and show when this is not a case in other more realistic models of the conducting DMSs.

P815 tumor-specific T suppressor cell and suppressor factor
Creators: name: Maier, Tom
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The work reported here involves studies of suppressor T cells (T[sub=s]C) and their suppressor factor (SF) which specifically suppress the in vitro generation of cells cytotoxic for a syngeneic tumor, P815, in DBA/2 mice. This work can be divided into three sections: a) the immunogenetic properties and requirements of this T[sub=s]C and SF, b) the Lyt phenotype of the T[sub=s]C as well as that of the cells involved in the cytotoxic response to the syngeneic tumor, c) the properties of syngeneic and allogeneic antisera raised to the P815 specific SF. a) P815-antigen specific T[sub=s]C and suppressive extracts obtained from the thymuses of DBA/2 mice bearing small syngeneic P815 tumors, were compared for their immunogenetic properties and requirements. It was shown that pretreatment of T[sub=s]C populations with anti-la[sub=d] antiserum plus rabbit complement removed the suppressive activity. Similarly, absorption of the SF with anti-la[sup=d] antiserum removed the suppressive properties of the material. It was found that the T[sub=s]C and SF were capable of specifically suppressing the anti-P815 response of B6D2F₁ radiation chimeras possessing lymphoid cells of the H-2[sup=b] or H-2[sup=t2] haplotype equally as well as they could suppress the response of H-2[sup=d] bearing cells. This indicates that the T[sub=s]C and SF are not H-2 restricted with respect to K or D markers on responder cells in this system. b) T[sub=s]C were also identified in the spleens of DBA/2 mice injected intraperitoneally with membrane extracts of the P815 tumor. The Lyt phenotypes of various effector cells was determined. DBA/2 allogeneic killer cells were identified as Lyt-1⁺2⁺, whereas the syngeneic effector cells were found to be predominantly Lyt-1⁺2⁺. The suppressor cell population lost its ability to suppress the in vitro cytotoxic anti-P815 response after treatment with anti-Lyt-1 serum plus complement but not after treatment with anti-Lyt-2 serum, indicating that an Lyt-1⁺2⁻ cell is essential in this suppression. c) P815 tumor-specific SF was partially purified by passage of suppressive spleen extracts through an immunoadsorbent containing P815 membrane components. Antisera raised in syngeneic DBA/2 and allogeneic, C57BL/6, mice were tested. It was found that these antisera, but not their controls were capable of absorbing out the SF. The antisera were also capable, in the presence of complement, of eliminating T[sub=s]C from suppressive spleen cell populations. However, the antisera were not capable of eliminating syngeneic tumor specific in vitro generated killer cells, indicating that the receptor molecules on suppressor and effector cells in this system are distinct from each other. Only the antisera "raised in syngeneic DBA/2 mice had any observable effect on P815 tumor growth in vivo.

description: In the framework of loop quantum gravity (LQG), having quantum black holes in mind, we generalize the previous boundary state counting (gr-qc/0508085) to a full bulk state counting. After a suitable gauge fixing we are able to compute the bulk entropy of a bounded region (the "black hole") with fixed boundary. This allows us to study the relationship between the entropy and the boundary area in details and we identify a holographic regime of LQG where the leading order of the entropy scales with the area. We show that in this regime we can fine tune the factor between entropy and area without changing the Immirzi parameter.

description: For nearly three decades, spatial games have produced a wealth of insights to the study of behavior and its relation to population structure. However, as different rules and factors are added or altered, the dynamics of spatial models often become increasingly complicated to interpret. To tackle this problem, we introduce persistent homology as a rigorous framework that can be used to both define and compute higher-order features of data in a manner which is invariant to parameter choices, robust to noise, and independent of human observation. Our work demonstrates its relevance for spatial games by showing how topological features of simulation data that persist over different spatial scales reflect the stability of strategies in 2D lattice games. To do so, we analyze the persistent homology of scenarios from two games: a Prisoner's Dilemma and a SIRS epidemic model. The experimental results show how the method accurately detects features that correspond to real aspects of the game dynamics. Unlike other tools that study dynamics of spatial systems, persistent homology can tell us something meaningful about population structure while remaining neutral about the underlying structure itself. Regardless of game complexity, since strategies either succeed or fail to conform to shapes of a certain topology there is much potential for the method to provide novel insights for a wide variety of spatially extended systems in biology, social science, and physics.

description: The healthcare industry has witnessed significant transformations in e-health services by using mobile edge computing (MEC) and blockchain to facilitate healthcare operations. Many MEC-blockchain-based schemes have been proposed, but some critical technical challenges still remain, such as low quality of services (QoS), data privacy and system security vulnerabilities. In this paper, we propose a new decentralized health architecture, called BEdgeHealth that integrates MEC and blockchain for data offloading and data sharing in distributed hospital networks. First, a data offloading scheme is proposed where mobile devices can offload health data to a nearby MEC server for efficient computation with privacy awareness. Moreover, we design a data sharing scheme which enables data exchanges among healthcare users by leveraging blockchain and interplanetary file system. Particularly, a smart contract-based authentication mechanism is integrated with MEC to perform decentralized user access verification at the network edge without requiring any central authority. The real-world experiment results and evaluations demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed BEdgeHealth architecture in terms of improved QoS with data privacy and security guarantees, compared to the existing schemes.

description: The search for signs of extraterrestrial technology, or technosignatures, includes the search for objects which collect starlight for some technological use, such as those composing a Dyson sphere. These searches typically account for a star's light and some blackbody temperature for the surrounding structure. However, such a structure inevitably returns some light back to the surface of its star, either from direct reflection or thermal re-emission. In this work, we explore how this feedback may affect the structure and evolution of stars, and when such feedback may affect observations. We find that in general this returned light can cause stars to expand and cool. Our MESA models show that this energy is only transported toward a star's core effectively by convection, so low mass stars are strongly affected, while higher mass stars with radiative exteriors are not. Ultimately, the effect only has significant observational consequences for spheres with very high temperatures (much higher than the often assumed ~300 K) and/or high specular reflectivity. Lastly, we produce color-magnitude diagrams of combined star-Dyson sphere systems for a wide array of possible configurations.

description: In the framework of the renormalization-group (RG) approach, critical phenomena can be investigated by studying the RG flow of multi-parameter $Φ^4$ field theories with an $N$-component fundamental field, containing up to 4th-order polynomials of the field. Some physically interesting systems require $Φ^4$ field theories with several quadratic and quartic parameters, depending essentially on their symmetry and symmetry-breaking pattern at the transition. Results for their RG flow apply to disorder and/or frustrated systems, anisotropic magnetic systems, density wave models, competing orderings giving rise to multicritical behaviors. The general properties of the RG flow in multi-parameter $Φ^4$ field theories are discussed. An overview of field-theoretical results for some physically interesting cases is presented, and compared with other theoretical approaches and experiments. Finally, this RG approach is applied to investigate the nature of the finite-temperature transition of QCD with $N_f$ light quarks.

description: Constructing a consistent four-dimensional Lagrangian for charged massive higher-spin fields propagating in an electromagnetic background is an open problem. In 1989, Argyres and Nappi used bosonic open string field theory to construct a Lagrangian for charged massive spin-2 fields in a constant electromagnetic background. In this paper, we use the four-dimensional hybrid formalism for open superstring field theory to construct a supersymmetric Lagrangian for charged massive spin-2 and spin-3/2 fields in a constant electromagnetic background. The hybrid formalism has the advantage over the RNS formalism of manifest $\mathcal{N}=1$ d=4 spacetime supersymmetry so that the spin-2 and spin-3/2 fields are combined into a single superfield and there is no need for picture-changing or spin fields.

description: We present the results of EVN+MERLIN VLBI polarization observations of 8 Broad Absorption Line (BAL) quasars at 1.6 GHz, including 4 LoBALs and 4 HiBALs with either steep or flat spectra on VLA scales. Only one steep-spectrum source, J1122+3124, shows two-sided structure on the scale of 2 kpc. The other four steep-spectrum sources and three flat-spectrum sources display either an unresolved image or a core-jet structure on scales of less than three hundred parsecs. In all cases the marginally resolved core is the dominant radio component. Linear polarization in the cores has been detected in the range of a few to 10 percent. Polarization, together with high brightness temperatures (from 2*10^9-5*10^10 K), suggest a synchrotron origin for the radio emission. There is no apparent difference in the radio orphologies or polarization between low-ionization and high-ionization BAL QSOs nor between flat- and steep-spectrum sources. We discuss the orientation of BAL QSOs with both flat and steep spectra, and consider a possible evolutionary scenario for BAL QSOs. In this scenario, BAL QSOs are probably the young population of radio sources, which are Compact Steep Spectrum or GHz peaked radio source analog at the low end of radio power.

description: Introduction: Isoniazid (INH) is an essential drug for tuberculosis (TB) treatment. Resistance to INH may increase the likelihood of negative treatment outcome. Aim: We aimed to determine the impact of INH mono-resistance on TB treatment outcome in the European Union/European Economic Area and to identify risk factors for unsuccessful outcome in cases with INH mono-resistant TB. Methods: In this observational study, we retrospectively analysed TB cases that were diagnosed in 2002–14 and included in the European Surveillance System (TESSy). Multilevel logistic regression models were applied to identify risk factors and correct for clustering of cases within countries. Results: A total of 187,370 susceptible and 7,578 INH mono-resistant TB cases from 24 countries were included in the outcome analysis. Treatment was successful in 74.0% of INH mono-resistant and 77.4% of susceptible TB cases. In the final model, treatment success was lower among INH mono-resistant cases (Odds ratio (OR): 0.7; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.6–0.9; adjusted absolute difference in treatment success: 5.3%). Among INH mono-resistant TB cases, unsuccessful treatment outcome was associated with age above median (OR: 1.3; 95% CI: 1.2–1.5), male sex (OR: 1.3; 95% CI: 1.1–1.4), positive smear microscopy (OR: 1.3; 95% CI: 1.1–1.4), positive HIV status (OR: 3.3; 95% CI: 1.6–6.5) and a prior TB history (OR: 1.8; 95% CI: 1.5–2.2). Conclusions: This study provides evidence for an association between INH mono-resistance and a lower likelihood of TB treatment success. Increased attention should be paid to timely detection and management of INH mono-resistant TB.
Philosophical problems in Jamaican education : an inquiry into relations between ideology and educational policy
Creators: name: McKenzie, Earl
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: My main aim in this thesis is to apply philosophical analysis to some of the central social and educational questions which were raised by the emergence of the Jamaican variant of democratic socialism, and by the attempt which was made at devising an educational policy as part of its strategy of social reform. I offer an account of the concept of ideology and then use it to give accounts of the idea of democratic socialism, and of the Jamaican variant of democratic socialism. I then bring this conception of ideology to bear on the description and discussion of three of the problems in Jamaican society which the democratic socialists addressed, and on my examination of the related problems of formulating educational policy aimed at their solution. First, I examine the problem of negative attitudes to work in Jamaican society, and the view that the solution is to be found in a socialist ideology of work, and in educational policies based on this ideology. A distinction between Labour and Work is introduced and used to interpret aspects of Jamaican social and historical experience. I argue that this distinction is a suitable basis for educational policy. Second, I examine the problem of bringing educational arrangements to bear on the pursuit of egalitarian ideals. I deny the view that egalitarianism requires a unitary school system, and I argue that a mixed school system is compatible with the pursuit of egalitarian as well as important non-egalitarian objectives. Third, I examine the problem of political development in Jamaica, and the view that in order to aid its development, political education should be made a part of schooling. The notion of political education is analysed. I also examine some of the arguments which might be brought to bear on the issue of political education in schools. I argue that formal political education is justified in the Jamaican context, and that a politically aware liberal arts curriculum is the approach to political education which is most likely to enrich the political life of a developing society.

description: This paper proposes a fusion method of modalities extracted from video through a three-stream network with spatio-temporal and temporal convolutions for fine-grained action classification in sport. It is applied to TTStroke-21 dataset which consists of untrimmed videos of table tennis games. The goal is to detect and classify table tennis strokes in the videos, the first step of a bigger scheme aiming at giving feedback to the players for improving their performance. The three modalities are raw RGB data, the computed optical flow and the estimated pose of the player. The network consists of three branches with attention blocks. Features are fused at the latest stage of the network using bilinear layers. Compared to previous approaches, the use of three modalities allows faster convergence and better performances on both tasks: classification of strokes with known temporal boundaries and joint segmentation and classification. The pose is also further investigated in order to offer richer feedback to the athletes.

Inflaton Decay in Supergravity

description: We discuss inflaton decay in supergravity, taking account of the gravitational effects. It is shown that, if the inflaton has a nonzero vacuum expectation value, it generically couples to any matter fields that appear in the superpotential at the tree level, and to any gauge sectors through anomalies in the supergravity. Through these processes, the inflaton generically decays into the supersymmetry breaking sector, producing many gravitinos. The inflaton also directly decays into a pair of the gravitinos. We derive constraints on both inflation models and supersymmetry breaking scenarios for avoiding overproduction of the gravitinos. Furthermore, the inflaton naturally decays into the visible sector via the top Yukawa coupling and SU(3)_C gauge interactions.

description: It is shown that lines of adsorbed hydrogen pair atoms divide the graphene sheet into strips and form hydrogen-based superlattice structures (2HG-SL). We show that the forming of 2HG-SL drastically changes the electronic properties of graphene from semimetal to semiconductor. The electronic spectra of "zigzag" (n,0) 2HG-SL is similar to that of (n,0) carbon nanotubes and have a similar oscillation of band gap with number n, but with non-zero minimal values. The composite dual-periodic (n,0)+(m,0) 2HG-SLs of "zigzag" strips are analyzed, with the conclusion that they may be treated as quasi-two-dimensional heterostructures. We also suggest an experimental way of fabricating hydrogen superlattices.

Type material: Holotype 1♀ (ZISP) and 20 paratypes 11♀, 9 ♂ (ZISP, PCSH): “Россия, Ростовская обл., ст. Багаевская, пойма р. Дон, выведены иЗ самок Camponotus vagus, собранных 27.05.202 2. Мухи выведены 15.06.202 2 (Д. М. Шевченко)” [Russia, Rostov region, Bagaevskaya village, floodplain of the Don river, bred from Camponotus vagus queens collected on 05/27/2022. The flies were bred on 06/15/2022 (D. M. Shevchenko)].
Description. Male (Fig. 2, 5). Thorax brown. Notopleuron with 2 bristles. Mesopleuron with about 14 hairs and one long bristle. Scutum with a pair of bristles in front of the scutellum, which has a posterior pair of bristles. Abdominal tergites 1-6 brown with small hairs mainly at rear margins. Hypopygium as Figs 2 D, E. Legs brownish yellow. Front tarsus as Fig. 2 G. Femur and tibia as Fig. 2 F. The average length (n=4) of the wing (Fig. 5) is 1,12205 mm. Costal Index 0,3581. Costal ratios 3,929:1,154:1. Costal cilia 0,0273 mm long. Axillary bristle 0,0429 mm long. Haltere knob brown.
Female (Fig. 3). Thorax brown. Notopleuron, mesopleuron, scutum and scutellum: same as a male. Abdominal tergites 1-6 brown (slightly darker than the male's). Ovipositor as Figs 3 D. Legs brownish yellow. Femur, tibia and tarsus: same as a male. The average length (n=4) of the wing is 1,238 mm. Costal Index 0,356. Costal ratios 3,942:1,661:1. Costal cilia 0,0269 mm long. Axillary bristle 0,0431 mm long.
Differential diagnosis. In the key of Gadau & Disney (1996) it runs to M. schmitzi (Menozzi), but the epandrium has more hairs and likewise the anal tube. It differs from the not described species of Menozziola from Turkey by a much smaller wing size, a larger costal index, smaller costal cilia and a different costal ratio.
Etymology. The species is named after the Greek name of the Don River (Τάναϊς), in the floodplain of which the type material was obtained.

description: We present phase-resolved spectroscopy of the short period cataclysmic variable WZ Sge obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope. We were able to resolve the orbital motion of a number of absorption lines that likely probe the environment near the accreting white dwarf. The radial velocities derived from simultaneous fits to 13 absorption lines indicate an orbital velocity semi-amplitude of K_UV = 47 +/- 3 km/s. However, we find that the phase zero is offset from the white dwarf ephemeris by +0.1. Our offset and velocity amplitude are very similar to constraints derived from optical emission lines from the quiescent accretion disk, despite the fact that we are probing material much closer to the primary. If we associate the UV amplitude with K_1, our dynamical constraints together with the K_2 estimates from Steeghs et al. (2001) and the known binary inclination of i=77+/-2 imply 0.88

description: In this paper, geodesic motion of the charged particles in the vicinity of event horizon of Schwarzschild anti-de-Sitter black hole (BH) with topological defects has been investigated. Weakly magnetized environment is considered in the surrounding of BH which only effects the motion of the particles and doesn't effect the geometry of the BH. Hence, particles are under the influence of gravity and electromagnetic forces. We have explored the effect of magnetic field on the trajectories of the particles and more importantly on the position of the innermost stable circular orbit. It is observed that the trajectories of the particles in the surrounding of BH are chaotic. Escape conditions of the particles under the influence of gravitomagnetic force are also discussed. Moreover, the escape velocity of particles and its different features have been investigated in the presence and absence of magnetic field. Effect of dark energy on the size of event horizon, mass of the BH and stability of the orbits of the particles have also been explored in detail. These studies can be used to estimate the power of relativistic jets originated from the vicinity of BH.

description: The emission of very-high-energy photons (VHE, E$>$100 GeV) in active galactic nuclei (AGN) is closely connected with the production of ultra-relativistic particles. Among AGN, the subclass of extreme BL Lacertae are of particular interest because they challenge state-of-art models on how these cosmic particle accelerators operate. By cross-matching two gamma-ray catalogs (this is, 4FGL-DR2 and 2BIGB), we identified 23 high-synchrotron-peaked (HSP) blazar candidates with photometric or spectroscopic redshifts, good multi-wavelength coverage, that are possibly detectable by VHE instruments. We performed a new analysis of Fermi Large Area Telescope data including the effects of attenuation from the extragalactic background light and complemented these results by collecting multiwavelength data from optical, radio and X-ray archival observations. Their broadband spectral energy distributions were interpreted in terms of synchrotron-self-Compton models with external-Compton components and compared with the properties of prototypical extreme HSP blazars. Finally, we test their detectability with imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs) and propose a new method for selecting these extreme targets for these ground-based telescopes.
