description: Η παρούσα ερευνητική εργασία εξετάζει την εξέλιξη των πόλεων από τα μέσα του 20ού αιώνα, εστιάζοντας στις ραγδαίες κοινωνικές και πολιτικοοικονομικές αλλαγές της εποχής. Αυτές οι αλλαγές σε συνδυασμό με την αυξανόμενη κινητικότητα των πληθυσμών αναδεικνύουν την ανάγκη προσαρμογής του σχεδιασμού των πόλεων στις νέες συνθήκες. Σε αυτό το πλαίσιο, φαινόμενα όπως η αστικοποίηση και η παγκοσμιοποίηση δημιουργούν προκλήσεις για την αρχιτεκτονική και ειδικότερα για τον αστικό σχεδιασμό. Όταν αυτές οι προκλήσεις δεν αντιμετωπίζονται με δημιουργικό τρόπο, συχνά οδηγούν στη διαμόρφωση πόλεων που αποκλείουν ή παραμελούν την τοπική ταυτότητα.
Παράλληλα, η ταχύτατη εξέλιξη της τεχνολογίας, σε συνδυασμό με την συνεχή ροή πληροφοριών και την ενίσχυση της επικοινωνίας, εισάγει νέες παραμέτρους για το σχεδιασμό των πόλεων, απαιτώντας ευέλικτες προσεγγίσεις.
Κατά συνέπεια, οι σύγχρονες πόλεις καλούνται να ανταποκριθούν στις αυξημένες ανάγκες του ατόμου για υπηρεσίες και πόρους, ενώ παράλληλα εξασφαλίζουν μια ισορροπημένη και ποιοτική ζωή, σεβόμενες τη μοναδική τους ταυτότητα. Μέσω της παρούσας ανάλυσης, αναδεικνύεται η ανάγκη για την αναζήτηση νέων και πιο ευέλικτων μοντέλων κατοίκησης. Σχεδιαστικά χαρακτηριστικά που ανταποκρίνονται σε αυτό το νέο πλαίσιο συνδέονται άμεσα με τον προσαρμοστικό τρόπο ζωής του σύγχρονου νομά.
Η επιτακτική ανάγκη για ευελιξία, ελευθερία και διαρκή μετακίνηση, καθώς και ο τρόπος με τον οποίο αυτές οι απαιτήσεις αντικατοπτρίζονται στον χώρο, αποτελούν τον πυρήνα του ερευνητικού ενδιαφέροντος της παρούσας μελέτης.
description: This study explores the evolution of cities since the mid-20th century focusing on rapid social, economic, and technological changes that highlight the need for adaptable urban design. Phenomena like urbanization and globalization challenge contemporary urban architecture and often lead to cities that overlook local identities.
When these challenges are not addressed creatively, they often lead to the
development of cities that neglect or exclude their local identity.
Simultaneously, the rapid advancement of technology coupled with the
continuous flow of information and enhanced communication, introduces new parameters for urban planning, requiring flexible approaches. As a result, modern cities need to respond to individuals’ increasing demands for services and resources while ensuring a balanced and high-quality life respecting their unique identi- ty. Through this analysis, the need for explora- tion of new and more flexible housing models emerges. Design characteristics that align with this new framework are closely linked to the adaptive lifestyle of the Neo-nomad.
The urgent need for flexibility, freedom, and constant mobility, as well as the ways in which these demands are reflected in space, form the main research interest of this study.

description: Recently a simple proof of the generalizations of Hawking's black hole topology theorem and its application to topological black holes for higher dimensional ($n\geq 4$) spacetimes was given \cite{rnew}. By applying the associated new line of argument it is proven here that strictly stable untrapped surfaces do possess exactly the same topological properties as strictly stable marginally outer trapped surfaces (MOTSs) are known to have. In addition, a quasi-local notion of outwards and inwards pointing spacelike directions--applicable to untrapped and marginally trapped surfaces--is also introduced.

description: We present the first comprehensive spectroscopic study of the Andromeda galaxy's Eastern Extent. This ~4 degree long filamentary structure. located 70-90 kpc from the centre of M31, lies perpendicular to Andromeda's minor axis and the Giant Stellar Stream and overlaps Stream C. In this work, we explore the properties of the Eastern Extent to look for possible connections between it, the Giant Stellar Stream and Stream C. We present the kinematics and photometry for ~50 red giant branch stars in 7 fields along the Eastern Extent. We measure the systemic velocities for these fields and find them to be -368 km/s < v < -331 km/s with a slight velocity gradient of -0.51 +/- 0.21 km/s/kpc towards the Giant Stellar Stream. We derive the photometric metallicities for stars in the Eastern Extent finding them to be metal-poor with values of -1.0 < [Fe/H]phot < -0.7 with a ~-0.9. We find consistent properties for the Eastern Extent, Stream B and one of the substructures in Stream C, Stream Cr, plausibly linking these features. Stream Cp and its associated globular cluster, EC4, have distinctly different properties indicative of a separate structure. When we compare the properties of the Eastern Extent to those of the Giant Stellar Stream, we find them to be consistent, albeit slightly more metal-poor, such that the Eastern Extent could plausibly comprise stars stripped from the progenitor of the Giant Stellar Stream.
Some data on reported speech in Kam: A possible quotative marker and issues in logophoricity
Creators: name: Lesage, Jakob
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: This datasheet is intended to share some data on logophoric pronouns and reported speech in Kam [ISO 639-3: kdx; Glottocode: kamm1249], a hitherto difficult to classify Niger-Congo language spoken in Central-Eastern Nigeria (see Lesage 2018a,b, 2019a,b,c, in preparation for more on the language). The analysis of reported speech constructions in Kam is currently inconclusive. There might be a quotative marker that has a different form in different varieties of Kam, but its exact function as a quotative marker remains to be checked. Additionally, there is certainly a logophoric pronoun for non-subject functions (such as possessor and patient roles), but it is as yet unclear whether there is a logophoric pronoun for subject function. A publication is planned that will detail a more complete analysis of logophoricity in Kam and address its implications for theories of logophoric pronouns and reported speech in general.

I would like to thank Tatiana Nikitina for providing valuable feedback on my current analysis of reported speech in Kam and for asking the right questions to move forward.

description: The possibility that experiments at high-energy accelerators could create new forms of matter that would ultimately destroy the Earth has been considered several times in the past quarter century. One consequence of the earliest of these disaster scenarios was that the authors of a 1993 article in "Physics Today" who reviewed the experiments that had been carried out at the Bevalac at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory were placed on the FBI's Unabomber watch list. Later, concerns that experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory might create mini black holes or nuggets of stable strange quark matter resulted in a flurry of articles in the popular press. I discuss this history, as well as Richard A. Posner's provocative analysis and recommendations on how to deal with such scientific risks. I conclude that better communication between scientists and nonscientists would serve to assuage unreasonable fears and focus attention on truly serious potential threats to humankind.

Frequency of police officers' problems and the sources of counselling most preferred by police officers
Creators: name: Mackoff, Randy
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The purpose of this study was to establish the frequency of problems that members of Police Force X experience or have experienced, and to determine which source of counselling the members of Police Force X would prefer most for each problem. A single stage sample design was used for this study. Two hundred non-commissioned police officers were randomly selected and were mailed a questionnaire through the police department's in-house mail system. One hundred and fifteen police officers returned completed and usable questionnaires. With the exception of an under representation of female police officers, the sample was representative of the population. The analysis of data showed that the five most frequent problems reported by the respondents were anxiety that interferes with the enjoyment of life, alcohol abuse, depression, financial problems, marital problems and sleep disturbance (these problems are presented in alphabetical order, and not in order of frequency). Further, for thirteen of fifteen presented problems the majority of respondents selected outside psychiatrist or psychologist as the most preferred source of counselling. For the problem of boredom and alienation members were equally divided between outside psychiatrist or psychologist and peer counselling as the most preferred source of counselling. The study concluded with a discussion of practical implications and recommendations for further research were presented.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Pelagic trawls have served as main fishing gears in Estonian herring fishery since the mid- 1960s. Due to the small mesh size in the codend (usually 10-14 mm), the composition of trawl catches represent the length structure of fish in the sea rater well .. Long-term observations show remarkable differences in size composition of herring caught in the Gulf of Finland, the Gulf of Riga and in open sea. At the same time, a certain similarity in the seasonal pattern of herring length distribution can be observed benveen the tlvo big gulfs, differing from that of open sea .. The seasonal changes in the length composition are probably caused by the seasonal migrations of herring between the gulfs and the open sea. Long-term trends in the length composition of herring are rather similar for all areas. The length range has shortened and shifted towards smaller length groups in all areas in the 1990s. The comparison of those trends with changes in age composition allow to regard the changes in growth as the major contributor to the changes in the length composition of herring. The presently observed short length distribution range and low mean length at age of complicate the use of Age-Length-Keys in herring investigations in the north-eastern Baltic.
Completeness of dagger-categories and the complex numbers

description: The complex numbers are an important part of quantum theory, but are difficult to motivate from a theoretical perspective. We describe a simple formal framework for theories of physics, and show that if a theory of physics presented in this manner satisfies certain completeness properties, then it necessarily includes the complex numbers as a mathematical ingredient. Central to our approach are the techniques of category theory, and we introduce a new category-theoretical tool, called the dagger-limit, which governs the way in which systems can be combined to form larger systems. These dagger-limits can be used to characterize the dagger-functor on the category of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, and so can be used as an equivalent definition of the inner product. One of our main results is that in a nontrivial monoidal dagger-category with all finite dagger-limits and a simple tensor unit, the semiring of scalars embeds into an involutive field of characteristic 0 and orderable fixed field.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.When evaluating the fisheries for Atlantic salmon in the European North of Russia in 1996 it should be noted that the situation that had developed in the last 5-6 years in general did not show any substantial changes. The majority of stocks in rivers of the Archangel Region and Karelia are still depressed or close to extinction. Projects that could be aimed at rehabilitating the stocks are not realistic for economic reasons. In the Kola Peninsula the situation is much better, however, the rivers situated in the vicinity of big communities suffer an increasing pressure from illegal fishing. Poaching has become one of the main if not the only reason for depression of stocks in the other two regions in the north of Russia, therefore increasing poaching pressure causes great concerns about the status of salmon stocks in rivers of the Kola Peninsula. In general in northern regions of Russia there remains a trend towards a shift of priorities in favour of sports fishing which is economically more beneficial . However, a cessation of fisheries at counting fences (in-river traps) would disrupt a quite long data series on abundance and biological parameters of salmon from largest populations since there are no other alternative ways of monitoring stock abundances at present
The differential effects of empathic reflection and empathic reflection plus the gestalt empty-chair dialogue on the issue of unfinished business
Creators: name: King, Sharron G.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The purpose of this study was to explore the specific client issue of unfinished business by comparing the differential effectiveness of empathy plus the Gestalt empty-chair technique and empathic reflection. The population consisted of 28 subjects drawn from students enrolled in the first year of a Master's Degree program in Counselling Psychology at a major university. The subjects received two counselling sessions in either the empathy plus Gestalt condition or the Empathic reflection condition. Two relationship instruments, the Empathy Scale of the Barrett-Lennard Relationship Inventory and the Task Dimension of the Working Alliance Inventory, were administered to assess the subject's perception of their therapist's behaviour and to screen for subjects who were not engaged in the process. Two outcome measures, the Target Complaint Measure and the Affective Reactions Questionnaire, were used to assess the amount of resolution subjects felt in their presenting complaint and the amount of change in their feelings toward the significant other. Two session measures, the Session Evaluation Questionnaire and the Target Complaint Discomfort Box Scale, were used to assess the current amount of discomfort regarding the presenting complaint and to evaluate the subject's perception of the sessions. The study showed that empathy plus the Gestalt empty-chair dialogue produced significantly more tolerance in the subjects' feelings toward a significant other person as measured by the Affective Reactions Questionnaire on an issue of unfinished business than those produced by empathic reflection. The results further suggest that a greater improvement in initial target complaint as measured by the Target Complaint Measure was felt for the empathy plus Gestalt condition than for the empathic reflection condition. The review of the literature suggests that the issue of unfinished business is an important one and the tentative results from this study suggest the need for further investigation to determine if the preliminary results are upheld in a clinical setting. The tentative results suggest that the Gestalt empty-chair dialogue in the context of an empathic relationship may make a contribution to the treatment of the issue of unfinished business.

description: We find that there is no supersymmetric flavor/CP problem, mu-problem, cosmological moduli/gravitino problem or dimension four/five proton decay problem in a class of supersymmetric theories with O(1) GeV gravitino mass. The cosmic abundance of the non-thermally produced gravitinos naturally explains the dark matter component of the universe. A mild hierarchy between the mass scale of supersymmetric particles and electroweak scale is predicted, consistent with the null result of a search for the Higgs boson at the LEP-II experiments. A relation to the strong CP problem is addressed. We propose a parametrization of the model for the purpose of collider studies. The scalar tau lepton is the next to lightest supersymmetric particle in a theoretically favored region of the parameter space. The lifetime of the scalar tau is of O(1000) seconds with which it is regarded as a charged stable particle in collider experiments. We discuss characteristic signatures and a strategy for confirmation of this class of theories at the LHC experiments.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.A joint Norwegian-Greenlandic longline survey was carried out in ICES Division XIVb in July-August 1996. Three localities were investigated, covering the plateau below the continental slope: A) south of Kap M0sting Ground (63°10N-39°3SW), B) north of Kap Bille Bank (62° 10N-40°12W), and C) east of Wal10e Bank (60°08N- 41 °SSW). The localities A and C were had previously not been exploited, whereas a commercial trawl and longline fishery was going on in locality B. Bottom temperature was 3-4°C. The main catch was Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippog/ossides), whereas the bycatch consisted mainly of Roughead grenadier (Macrourus berg/ax) and Finescale antimora (Antimora rostrata Gllnther). The yield of Greenland halibut, expressed as catch (kg) per 1000 hooks, was high in the exploited locality B with an average of 438.7kg/1000 hooks, and low in the unexploited localities (163.6kg/1000 hooks in locality A and 136.Skg/1000 hooks in locality C). The yield ofbycatch showed an inverse pattern, beeing high in locality A and C and low in locality B. Greenland halibut was smaller in the commercial locality B (mean length 75.8cm) than in the new localities (mean lengths 86.3cm and 79.6cm in locality A and C respectively). This paper summarizes the results of the longline survey with focuse on the catch composition and biology of Greenland halibut. A comparison of the unexploited localities and an exploited locality, may lead to important information about the impact of exploitation on the Greenland halibut stock and on a commercial fishing ground in ICES Division XIVb.

description: The electronic structure of an atomic-layer-deposited MoS2 monolayer on SiO2 was investigated using X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and synchrotron X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The angle-dependent evolution of the XAS spectra and the photon-energy-dependent evolution of the XPS spectra were analyzed in detail using an ab-initio electronic structure simulation. Although similar to the theoretical spectra of an ideal free-standing MoS2 ML, the experimental spectra exhibit features that are distinct from those of an ideal ML, which can be interpreted as a consequence of S-O van der Waals (vdW) interactions. The strong consensus among the experimental and theoretical spectra suggests that the vdW interactions between MoS2 and adjacent SiO2 layers can influence the electronic structure of the system, manifesting a substantial electronic interaction at the MoS2-SiO2 interface.

description: Стаття присвячена дослідженню питання, пов’язаного з правовою регламентацією діяльності внутрішнього водного транспорту України як одного з елементів цілісної транспортної системи держави, що відіграє важливу соціально-економічну роль. Водночас, звернуто увагу на те, що вказаний вид транспорту, по суті, є доволі новою та перспективною складовою транспортної галузі за умови її планомірного розвитку. Акцентовано на тому, що внутрішній водний транспорт, зокрема річковий транспорт, має значний потенціал, зумовлений його більшою економічністю та екологічністю.

Водночас, варто наголосити на деяких аспектах, які потребують нагального вирішення для подальшого розвитку цього виду транспорту. Передусім, це стосується чіткого та однозначного правового регулювання питань, пов’язаних з ціноутворенням, тарифними сітками та зборами за перевезення вантажів. Окремого врегулювання потребує діяльність щодо формування належної матеріальної бази (судна, морські та річкові порти), утримання в належному стані водних шляхів тощо. Натомість, особливої уваги потребують питання екології, що доволі часто стають причиною обміління річок, замулення дна та ін.

З огляду на те, що нині вказані питання набули надзвичайної гостроти, подальшого наукового пошуку потребують окремі аспекти законодавчого регулювання, зокрема, пов’язаного з фінансовим забезпеченням транспортної сфери загалом, та окремих її видів, а також створення належного правового підґрунтя для залучення інвестицій у розбудову внутрішнього водного транспорту. Вочевидь, з метою динамічних зрушень, які сприятимуть розвитку не лише окремого виду, але й усієї транспортної сфери нагальним питанням є налагодження дієвого державного контролю за дотриманням чинного законодавства, що регламентує діяльність усіх структурних елементів галузі.

Tachyon condensation and quark mass in modified Sakai-Sugimoto model

Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: This paper continues the investigation of the modified Sakai-Sugimoto model proposed in arXiv:0708.3233. Here we discuss in detail numerical solutions to the classical equations for the brane profile and the tachyon condensate. An ultraviolet cut-off turns out to be essential because the numerical solutions tend to rapidly diverge from the desired asymptotic solutions, beyond a sufficiently large value of the holographic coordinate. The required cut-off is determined by the non-normalizable part of the tachyon and is parametrically far smaller than that dictated by consistency of a description in terms of 10-dimensional bulk gravity. In arXiv:0708.3233 we had argued that the solution in which the tachyon field goes to infinity at the point where the brane and antibrane meet has only one free parameter, which may be taken to be the asymptotic brane-antibrane separation. Here we present numerical evidence in favour of this observation. We also present evidence that the non-normalizable part of the asymptotic tachyon solution, which is identified with quark mass in the QCD-like boundary theory, is determined by this parameter. We show that the normalizable part of the asymptotic tachyon solution determines the quark condensate, but this requires holographic renormalization of the on-shell boundary brane action because of the presence of infinite cut-off dependent terms. Our renormalization scheme gives an exponential dependence on the cut-off to the quark mass. We also discuss meson spectra in detail and show that the pion mass is nonzero and satisfies the Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner relation when a small quark mass is switched on.

description: Non-paper Safe-by-design of materials and chemicals: Towards an innovation programme in Horizon Europe

In the global transition to a safe and circular economy, the EU can play a leading role by developing innovative, safer and sustainable materials, chemicals, products and services. EU innovation policy, as a complement to chemicals policy, could stimulate the development and adoption of such innovations.

An informal working group of experts from government, academia and industry has developed a non-paper about the main topics for an innovation programme, in Horizon Europe or other European programmes, that could accelerate the design, development and adoption of safer alternatives to new and existing applications (materials, chemicals, products and services) where safety hazards (may) arise. The document proposes three funding areas for a Horizon Europe programme:

	developing and improving methodologies for safe (re)design of chemicals and materials to ensure that toxicity and other lifecycle considerations (including circularity) are integrated into design processes;
	thematic Research, Development and Innovation (RD&I) to overcome technical and scientific challenges in areas where it has been difficult to find safer alternatives;
	creating an enabling environment: Knowledge exchange, education and supply chain cooperation to set up safe-by-design as a new interdisciplinary approach.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Smolt age and sea age distributions of Atlantic salmon were estimated from material sampled in the sea north of the Faroe Islands during four consecutive fishing seasons 1991/1992 to 1994/1995. Age compositions where estimated from scale analyses and the fish were classified as being of wild or fish farm origin from scale characteristics. Age composition in samples from the four fishing seasons showed similar trends. Both smolt age and sea age were significantly lower in the autumn part of the fishing season (November-December) than in the winter part of the season (January-March). Smolt age varied between 1-4 years with mean smolt age of2.5 years in the autumn samples and 2.7 years in the winter samples. Sea age varied mainly between 1-3 years and mean sea age was 1.9 years in the autumn samples and 2.2 years in the winter samples. The significantly lower smolt age and sea age of salmon caught in the autumn suggest that a large proportion of the salmon caught in the Faroes area during this period originate from southern European countries, where salmon are younger than in the northern part of the distribution area. Recaptures in the Faroese fishery of salmon tagged as smolt in different countries support these findings.

description: Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) systems are limited by their slow processing speed, low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and expensive and challenging hardware setups. In this work, we demonstrate applying a denoising convolutional network to improve FLIM SNR. The network will be integrated with an instant FLIM system with fast data acquisition based on analog signal processing, high SNR using high-efficiency pulse-modulation, and cost-effective implementation utilizing off-the-shelf radio-frequency components. Our instant FLIM system simultaneously provides the intensity, lifetime, and phasor plots \textit{in vivo} and \textit{ex vivo}. By integrating image denoising using the trained deep learning model on the FLIM data, provide accurate FLIM phasor measurements are obtained. The enhanced phasor is then passed through the K-means clustering segmentation method, an unbiased and unsupervised machine learning technique to separate different fluorophores accurately. Our experimental \textit{in vivo} mouse kidney results indicate that introducing the deep learning image denoising model before the segmentation effectively removes the noise in the phasor compared to existing methods and provides clearer segments. Hence, the proposed deep learning-based workflow provides fast and accurate automatic segmentation of fluorescence images using instant FLIM. The denoising operation is effective for the segmentation if the FLIM measurements are noisy. The clustering can effectively enhance the detection of biological structures of interest in biomedical imaging applications.

description: We present a review of precursor observing programs for the SIM PlanetQuest Key project devoted to detecting Jupiter mass planets around young stars. In order to ensure that the stars in the sample are free of various sources of astrometric noise that might impede the detection of planets, we have initiated programs to collect photometry, high contrast images, interferometric data and radial velocities for stars in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres. We have completed a high contrast imaging survey of target stars in Taurus and the Pleiades and found no definitive common proper motion companions within one arcsecond (140 AU) of the SIM targets. Our radial velocity surveys have shown that many of the target stars in Sco-Cen are fast rotators and a few stars in Taurus and the Pleiades may have sub-stellar companions. Interferometric data of a few stars in Taurus show no signs of stellar or sub-stellar companions with separations of <5 mas. The photometric survey suggests that approximately half of the stars initially selected for this program are variable to a degree (1 sigma>0.1 mag) that would degrade the astrometric accuracy achievable for that star. While the precursor programs are still a work in progress, we provide a comprehensive list of all targets ranked according to their viability as a result of the observations taken to date. By far, the observable that moves the most targets from the SIM-YSO program is photometric variability.

description: We investigate a sample of 6 Herbig Ae/Be stars belonging to the Orion OB1 association, as well as 73 low mass objects, members of the $σ$ Orionis cluster, in order to explore the angular momentum evolution at early stages of evolution, and its possible connection with main-sequence Ap/Bp magnetic stars. Using FIES and HECTOCHELLE spectra, we obtain projected rotational velocities through two independent methods. Individual masses, radii, and ages were computed using evolutionary models, distance, and cluster extinction. Under the assumption that similar physical processes operate in both, T Tauri and Herbig Ae/Be stars, we construct snapshots of the protostar's rotation against mass during the first 10 Myr with the aid of a rotational model that includes a variable disc lifetime, changes in the stellar moment of inertia, a dipolar magnetic field with variable strength, and angular momentum loss through stellar winds powered by accretion. We use these snapshots, as well as the rotational data, to infer a plausible scenario for the angular momentum evolution. We find that magnetic field strengths of a few k$G$ at 3 Myr are required to match the rotational velocities of both groups of stars. Models with masses between 2-3 $M_{\odot}$ display larger angular momentum by a factor of $\sim 3$, in comparison to stars of similar spectral types on the main-sequence. Even though some quantitative estimates on this dramatic decrease with age, for Ap/Bp magnetic main-sequence stars are presented, the results obtained for the angular momentum evolution do not explain their low rotation.

description: We review the present status in the theoretical and phenomenological understanding of charmonium and bottomonium production in heavy-ion collisions. We start by recapitulating the basic notion of "anomalous quarkonium suppression" in heavy-ion collisions and its recent amendments involving regeneration reactions. We then survey in some detail concepts and ingredients needed for a comprehensive approach to utilize heavy quarkonia as a probe of hot and dense matter. The theoretical discussion encompasses recent lattice QCD computations of quarkonium properties in the Quark-Gluon Plasma, their interpretations using effective potential models, inelastic rate calculations and insights from analyses of electromagnetic plasmas. We illustrate the powerful techniques of thermodynamic Green functions (T-matrices) to provide a general framework for implementing microscopic properties of heavy quarkonia into a kinetic theory of suppression and regeneration reactions. The theoretical concepts are tested in applications to heavy-ion reactions at SPS, RHIC and LHC. We outline perspectives for future experiments on charmonium and bottomonium production in heavy-ion collisions over a large range in energy (FAIR, RHIC-II and LHC). These are expected to provide key insights into hadronic matter under extreme conditions using quarkonium observables.

description: The properties of the first-discovered interstellar object (ISO), 1I/2017 (`Oumuamua), differ from both Solar System asteroids and comets, casting doubt on a protoplanetary disk origin. In this study, we investigate the possibility that it formed with a substantial H2 ice component in the starless core of a giant molecular cloud. While interstellar solid hydrogen has yet to be detected, this constituent would explain a number of the ISO's properties. We consider the relevant processes required to build decameter-sized, solid hydrogen bodies and assess the plausibility of growth in various size regimes. Via an energy balance argument, we find that the most severe barrier to formation is the extremely low temperature required for the favorability of molecular hydrogen ice. However, if deposition occurs, we find that the turbulence within starless cores is conducive for growth into kilometer-sized bodies on sufficiently short timescales. Then, we analyze mass loss in the interstellar medium and determine the necessary size for a hydrogen object to survive a journey to the Solar System as a function of ISO age. Finally, we discuss the implications if the H2 explanation is correct, and we assess the future prospects of ISO science. If hydrogen ice ISOs do exist, our hypothesized formation pathway would require a small population of porous, 100 micron dust in a starless core region that has cooled to 2.8K via adiabatic expansion of the surrounding gas and excellent shielding from electromagnetic radiation and cosmic rays.

description: Using a recently developed technique to estimate the equilibrium free energy of glassy materials, we explore if equilibrium simulation methods can be used to estimate the solubility of amorphous solids. As an illustration, we compute the chemical potentials of the constituent particles of a two-component Kob-Andersen model glass former. To compute the chemical potential for different components, we combine the calculation of the overall free energy of the glass with a calculation of the chemical potential difference of the two components. We find that the standard method to compute chemical potential differences by thermodynamic integration yields not only a wide scatter in the chemical potential values but, more seriously, the average of the thermodynamic integration results is well above the extrapolated value for the supercooled liquid. However, we find that if we compute the difference of the chemical potential of the components with the the non-equilibrium free energy expression proposed by Jarzynski, we obtain a good match with the extrapolated value of the supercooled liquid. The extension of the Jarzynski method that we propose opens a potentially powerful route to compute free-energy related equilibrium properties of glasses. We find that the solubility estimate of amorphous materials obtained from direct coexistence simulations is only in fair agreement with the solubility prediction based on the chemical potential calculations of a hypothetical "well-equilibrated glass". In direct coexistence simulations, we find that, in qualitative agreement with experiments, the amorphous solubility decreases with time and attains a low solubility value.

description: We argue that using the Shapley value of cooperative game theory as the scheme for risk allocation among non-orthogonal risk factors is a natural way of interpreting the contribution made by each of such factors to overall portfolio risk. We discuss a Shapley value scheme for allocating risk to non-orthogonal greeks in a portfolio of derivatives. Such a situation arises, for example, when using a stochastic volatility model to capture option volatility smile. We also show that Shapley value allows for a natural method of interpreting components of enterprise risk measures such as VaR and ES. For all applications discussed, we derive explicit formulas and / or numerical algorithms to calculate the allocations.
