title: Activist Sound: Field Recording, Phonography, and Soundscapes of Protest
Creators: name: DeLaurenti, Christopher
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2020

description: Fusing practiced-based and scholarly research, this thesis examines and articulates the practice and products of field recording as a form of protest. Unlike studio recording, which transpires in sheltered and otherwise controlled environments, field recordings have historically been made in unstable, ad hoc, and unpredictable contexts often by un- and self-trained scholars, scientists, artists, and explorers. The contingent and elusive categorization of such recordings as ethnographic documents, environmental research, sound effects, nature recording, soundscape composition, sound art, music, and non-music not only can perturb or further unsettle the listener but offers an entryway into explicating ideologies of listening and recording. The practice-based component of this research emerges from phonography, a contemporary form of field recording characterized by critical approaches to subject matter, sonic fidelity, and the role of the recordist––mediated by the relatively recent availability of inexpensive portable recording devices. The written, scholarly component of this research is rooted in the soundscape model articulated by R. Murray Schafer and subsequently developed by theorists of and contiguous to sound studies, including Barry Truax and Hildegard Westerkamp. Research methodologies include historical investigation, paratextual analysis, participant observation, and artistic creation. Drawing from a representative selection of the author’s unfolding practice over the last 10 years–– N30: Live at the WTO Protest November 30, 1999 (2008); Favorite Intermissions (2008); and To the Cooling Tower, Satsop (2015)––the case studies in this thesis resulted in a critical framework, “activist sound,” for identifying field recordings and field recording-based sound works as a form of protest.

description: Weak magnetic monopoles with a continuum of charges less than the minimum implied by Dirac's quantization condition may be possible in non-associative quantum mechanics. If a weakly magnetically charged proton in a hydrogen atom perturbs the standard energy spectrum only slightly, magnetic charges could have escaped detection. Testing this hypothesis requires entirely new methods to compute energy spectra in non-associative quantum mechanics. Such methods are presented here, and evaluated for upper bounds on the magnetic charge of elementary particles.

description: We study a one-dimensional Frenkel Hamiltonian with off-diagonal disorder, focusing our attention on the physical nature of the zero-energy peak of the density of states. The character of excitonic states (localized or delocalized) is also examined in the vicinity of this peak. It is shown that the state being responsible for the peak is localized. A detailed comparison of the nearest-neighbor approach with the long-range dipole-dipole coupling is performed.

description: Curcuminoids are functional food additives, and the effect on gonadal hormone biosynthesis remains unclear. Gonads contain 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase isoforms, h3β-HSD2 (humans) and r3β-HSD1 (rats), which catalyse pregnenolone into progesterone. The potency and mechanisms of curcuminoids to inhibit 3β-HSD activity were explored. The inhibitory potency was bisdemethoxycurcumin (IC50, 1.68 µM) >demethoxycurcumin (3.27 µM) > curcumin (13.87 µM) > tetrahydrocurcumin (109.0 µM) > dihydrocurcumin and octahydrocurcumin on KGN cell h3β-HSD2, while that was bisdemethoxycurcumin (1.22 µM) >demethoxycurcumin (2.18 µM) > curcumin (4.12 µM) > tetrahydrocurcumin (102.61 µM) > dihydrocurcumin and octahydrocurcumin on testicular r3β-HSD1. All curcuminoids inhibited progesterone secretion by KGN cells under basal and forskolin-stimulated conditions at >10 µM. Docking analysis showed that curcuminoids bind steroid-active site with mixed or competitive mode. In conclusion, curcuminoids inhibit gonadal 3β-HSD activity and de-methoxylation of curcumin increases inhibitory potency and metabolism of curcumin by saturation of carbon chain losses inhibitory potency.

description: Under two separate symmetry assumptions, we demonstrate explicitly how the equations governing a general anti-self-dual conformal structure in four dimensions can be reduced to the Manakov-Santini system, which determines the three-dimensional Einstein-Weyl structure on the space of orbits of symmetry. The two symmetries investigated are a non-null translation and a homothety, which are previously known to reduce the second heavenly equation to the Laplace's equation and the hyper-CR system, respectively. Reductions on the anti-self-dual null-Kähler condition are also explored in both cases.
Possible cooling by resonant Fowler-Nordheim emission

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: A new method of electronic refrigeration based on resonant Fowler-Nordheim emission is proposed and analyzed. In this method, a bulk emitter is covered with a-few-nm-thick film of a widegap semiconductor, creating an intermediate step between electron energies in the emitter and in vacuum. An external electric field tilts this potential profile, forming a quantum well, and hence 2D electron subbands at the semiconductor-vacuum boundary. Alignment of the lowest subband with the energy levels of the hottest electrons of the emitter (a few $k_{B}T$ above its Fermi level) leads to a resonant, selective emission of these electrons, providing emitter cooling. Calculations show that cooling power as high as 10^{4} W/cm^{2} (at 300 K), and temperatures down to 10 K may be achieved using this effect.

The special role of the first Matsubara frequency for superconductivity near a quantum-critical point -- the non-linear gap equation below $T_c$ and spectral properties in real frequencies

description: Near a quantum-critical point in a metal a strong fermion-fermion interaction, mediated by a soft boson, destroys fermionic coherence and also gives rise to superconductivity. In a class of large $N$ models, one would naively expect an incoherent (non-Fermi liquid) normal state behavior to persist down to $T=0$. However, this is not the case for quantum-critical systems described by Eliashberg theory, where non-Fermi liquid part of the self-energy $Σ(ω_m)$ is large for a generic Matsubara frequency $ω_m = πT(2m+1)$, but vanishes at $ω_m = \pm πT$, while the pairing interaction between fermions with these two frequencies remains strong. This peculiarity gives rise to a non-zero $T_c$ even at large $N$[Y. Wang et al PRL 117, 157001 (2016)]. We consider the system behavior below $T_c$ and contrast the two cases when $ω_m = \pm πT$ are either special or not. We obtain the solution of the non-linear gap equations in real frequency axis and obtain the spectral function $A(ω)$ and the density of states $N(ω)$. In a conventional BCS-type superconductor $A(ω)$ and $N(ω)$ are peaked at the gap value $Δ(T)$, and the peak position shifts to a smaller $ω$ as temperature increases, i.e. the gap "closes in". However when superconductivity is induced by fermions with $ω_m = \pm πT$, the peak in $N(ω)$ remains at a finite frequency even at $T =T_c-0$, the gap just "fills in". The spectral function $A(ω)$ either shows almost the same "gap filling" behavior, or its peak position shifts to zero frequency already at a finite $Δ$ ("emergent Fermi arc" behavior), depending on the strength of the thermal contribution. We compare our results with the data for the cuprates and argue that "gap filling" behavior holds in the antinodal region, while the "emergent Fermi arc" behavior holds in the nodal region.

Finite-Size Effects on Periodic Arrays of Nanostructures

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Arrays of nanostructures have emerged as exceptional tools for the manipulation and control of light. Oftentimes, despite the fact that real implementations of nanostructure arrays must be finite, these systems are modeled as perfectly periodic, and therefore infinite. Here, we investigate the legitimacy of this approximation by studying the evolution of the optical response of finite arrays of nanostructures as their number of elements is increased. We find that the number of elements necessary to reach the infinite array limit is determined by the strength of the coupling between them, and that, even when that limit is reached, the individual responses of the elements may still display significant variations. In addition, we show that, when retardation is negligible, the resonance frequency for the infinite array is always redshifted compared to the single particle. However, in the opposite situation, there could be either a blue- or a redshift. We also study the effects of inhomogeneity in size and position of the elements on the optical response of the array. This work advances the understanding of the behavior of finite and infinite arrays of nanostructures, and therefore provides guidance to design applications that utilize these systems.

description: This study assesses the social and economic conditions of fishermen in the Samaki Apirak Steung Kambot community fisheries, located in Kampong Svay commune, Kampong Svay district, Kampong Thom province. Data were gathered through interviews with 123 fishermen from the villages of Thnaot, Chong Prey, and Prek Preah. The study examines demographic characteristics, fishing practices, economic conditions and SWOT. Findings reveal that the majority of fishermen are aged between 31 and 50 years, with most having completed primary education. Farming is the dominant occupation, while fishing serves as a secondary activity. Fishing gear commonly used includes Mong and Samnanh. The survey also highlights a significant decline in fish resources, with most fishermen reporting very low availability. Fish catch per trip has decreased since joining the community fisheries, with many fishermen now catching only 1-5 kg. Economic analysis shows that fishermen in Thnaot village have the highest income but also face the highest expenses, while those in Prek Preah exhibit better financial stability. A SWOT analysis identifies strengths such as strong community cooperation and opportunities for fisheries product processing, while weaknesses include limited collaboration with authorities and declining fisheries resources. The study emphasizes the need for sustainable fisheries management and community development initiatives to address these challenges.

description: We present results from a careful and detailed analysis of the structural and dynamical properties of a sample of 29 disc-like objects identified at z=0 in three AP3M-SPH fully consistent cosmological simulations. These simulations are realizations of a CDM hierarchical model, where an inefficient Schmidt law-like algorithm to model the stellar formation process has been implemented. We focus on properties that can be constrained with available data from observations of spiral galaxies, namely, the bulge and disc structural parameters and the rotation curves. Comparisons with data from Broeils (1992), de Jong (1996) and Courteau (1996, 1997) give satisfactory agreement, in contrast with previous findings using other codes. This suggests that the stellar formation implementation we have used has succeded in forming compact bulges that stabilize disc-like structures in the violent phases of their assembly, while in the quiescent phases the gas has cooled and collapsed according with the Fall & Efstathiou standard model of disc formation.

Figs 49, 50.
 Male: Body length 12 mm. Genitalia typical of the rotundata -group. Integument dark brown, except femora of all legs (orange), tibia 2 and tarsi of mid and hind legs (brown-orange) (Fig. 49); in addition, front legs modified as in M. laniventris sp. nov., with tibia orange, front tarsi yellowish-white, second tarsal segment with dark maculation on ventral side; front coxal spine as in M. laniventris sp. nov. In contrast to M. laniventris sp. nov., sterna 2–3 without particularly long hairs. Last antennal segment only very slightly enlarged. Ocelloccipital distance nearly as long as interocellar distance (Fig. 50). Punctation on vertex as in M. laniventris sp. nov., on mesonotum very fine and very dense (Fig. 50), more so than in M. laniventris sp. nov.; preapical carina of T6 with 10 acute teeth. This species appears to be very similar to some Afrotropical species of Eutricharaea; using the key of Pasteels (1965), this species would run to M. stellarum or M. krebsiana; using the key of Eardley (2013), it would run to M. malangensis Friese 1904. M. stellarum was synonymized with M. malangensis and M. krebsiana with M. frontalis Smith 1853 (not M. frontalis Fabricius 1804) by Eardley (2013), both of which were placed in Paracella Michener (=Anodonteutricharaea). The type specimens of M. malangensis and M. krebsiana were examined; these taxa belong to the subgenus Eutricharaea, not Anodonteutricharaea; M. krebsiana is probably not a synonym of M. frontalis Smith.
 When submitted to the identification engine on the BOLD platform, the COI sequence obtained for Megachile sp. 1 species was highly similar (>99%) to three unpublished sequences from Ghana and South Africa; these three sequences were obtained from specimens not identified to species. This high similarity over thousands of kilometers strongly suggests that this species may be a widely distributed Afrotropical species.

description: Notch is a key player in various developmental
 processes during the embryonic stage as well as in regulating
 tissue homeostasis, cell differentiation, and stem cell maintenance
 in adult life. Activation of Notch signaling occurs following
 Notch receptor−ligand interaction and subsequent enzymatic
 proteolysis by the gamma-secretase complex, resulting in the
 cytoplasmic release of a Notch intracellular domain, which
 translocates to the nucleus to initiate the downstream transcrip-
 tional machinery. Notch activation and its aberrant signaling have
 been broadly linked to the pathogenesis of cancer and some
 chronic inflammatory diseases resulting in pathologic fibrotic
 processes. This review focuses on the molecular basis of Notch-
 induced signaling and its interaction with other pathways to
 identify therapeutic targets. We also highlight current efforts to pharmacologically intervene in Notch signaling and discuss promising ongoing experimental and clinical studies.

description: Recently we presented a new band structure for La(2-x)Sr(x)CuO(4) and other high temperature superconductors in which a second narrow band was seen to cross the primary band at the Fermi level. The existence of this second Fermi level band is in complete disagreement with the commonly accepted LDA band structure. Yet it provided a crucial piece of physics which led to an explanation for superconductivity and other unusual phenomena in these materials. In this work we present details as to the nature of the failure of conventional methods in deriving the band structure of the cuprates. In particular, we use a number of chemical analogues to describe the problem of static correlation in the band structure calculations and show how this can be corrected with the predictable outcome of a Fermi level band crossing.

 Male: Small-sized Eutricharaea characterized as follows: Integument dark, except the following body parts, which are orange: all femora and tarsi, front coxa, all sternites, antennae except scape and pedicel, parts of mandibles and clypeus, latero-inferior parts of T1 and T2. Front legs modified as follows: front coxa with comparatively long and acute, triangular spine (Fig. 54), anterior surface of coxa glabrous, shiny, nearly impunctate, without patch of orange setae. Front tarsi yellowish white, ventral side of segments 2 and 3 with black maculation (Fig. 52). Last antennal segment distinctly broadened, spatulate (Fig. 53). The most distinctive feature is the apical margin of the clypeus, with two rounded teeth separated by a deep emargination (Fig. 51). Preapical carina of T6 with 10 acute teeth and with medial emargination. Genitalia as in Megachile rufomandibularis sp. nov., gonostylus apically bifid, with a short preapical lobe. The structure of the genitalia is reminiscent of Megachile rufomandibularis sp. nov. and M. naevia, thus places this species in the naevia -group. This species would run to M. admixta Cockerell 1931 in the key by Pasteels (1965); both species appear to share numerous characteristics, especially the short vertex, the emarginate clypeus, the strong carina under the front femur and the short vertex, a combination of features that is otherwise unusual in Eutricharaea.

Discovery of a Radio Relic in the Massive Merging Cluster SPT-CL J2023-5535 from the ASKAP-EMU Pilot Survey
Creators: name: HyeongHan, Kim
Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: The ASKAP-EMU survey is a deep wide-field radio continuum survey designed to cover the entire southern sky and a significant fraction of the northern sky up to +30deg. We report a discovery of a radio relic in the merging cluster SPT-CL J2023--5535 at z=0.23 from the ASKAP-EMU pilot 300 sq.deg survey (800 - 1088 MHz). The radio relic is located at the western edge of this radio halo stretched ~0.5 Mpc in the north-south orientation. The integrated spectral index of the radio relic within the narrow bandwidth is alpha (1088 MHz - 800 MHz) = - 0.76 +- 0.06. Our weak-lensing analysis of archival DECam data shows that the system is a massive M200 =(1.04 +- 0.36) 10^15 Msun) merging cluster composed of at least three subclusters. We suggest a scenario, wherein the radio features arise from the collision between the eastern and middle subclusters. Our discovery illustrates the effectiveness of the ASKAP-EMU survey in detecting diffuse emissions in galaxy clusters and when completed, the survey will greatly increase the number of merging cluster detections with diffuse radio emissions.

description: Quantum fluctuations of electromagnetic radiation pressure are discussed. We use an approach based on the quantum stress tensor to calculate the fluctuations in velocity and position of a mirror subjected to electromagnetic radiation. Our approach reveals that radiation pressure fluctuations are due to a cross term between vacuum and state dependent terms in a stress tensor operator product. Thus observation of these fluctuations would entail experimental confirmation of this cross term. We first analyze the pressure fluctuations on a single, perfectly reflecting mirror, and then study the case of an interferometer. This involves a study of the effects of multiple bounces in one arm, as well as the correlations of the pressure fluctuations between arms of the interferometer. In all cases, our results are consistent with those previously obtained by Caves using different mehods.

description: We study the low-temperature effective potential of the Ising model. We evaluate the three-point and four-point zero-momentum renormalized coupling constants that parametrize the expansion of the effective potential near the coexistence curve. These results are obtained by a constrained analysis of the $ε$-expansion that uses accurate estimates for the two-dimensional Ising model.

description: Megachile (Eutricharaea) sp. 3
Fig. 55.
 Female: Small-sized Eutricharaea (body length 9 mm) characterized as follows: Integument dark brown, except the following body parts, which are orange: femora and tarsi of all legs, mandibles and antennae except scape and pedicel; latero-inferior part of T1. Vertex short. Vestiture entirely white, include scopa on S6. Tergites nearly entirely covered by white tomentum, cuticula visible only on discs of T2 and T3; in particular, T6 entirely covered by dense white tomentum entirely obscuring cuticula, without dark erect hairs. Mandible approaching the condition observed in M. orientalis Morawitz 1895 (Praz 2017: fig. 2), thus with five regularly spaced and subequal, acute teeth, cutting edge recessed behind margin and little visible in front view (Fig. 55). Whether this species is conspecific with M. orientalis will require further investigation; it may also be the unknown female of Megachile sp. 2.
 Male: Unknown (possibly Megachile sp. 2).

Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: We derive the gravitational Lagrangian to all orders of curvature when the canonical constraint algebra is deformed by a phase space function as predicted by some studies into loop quantum cosmology. The deformation function seems to be required to satisfy a non-linear equation usually found in fluid mechanics, and can form discontinuities quite generally.

Multi-Epoch VLBA Observations of EGRET-Detected Quasars and BL Lac Objects: Connection between Superluminal Ejections and Gamma-Ray Flares in Blazars

description: We examine the coincidence of times of high $γ$-ray flux and ejections of superluminal components from the core in EGRET blazars based on a VLBA monitoring program at 22 and 43 GHz from November 1993 to July 1997. In 23 cases of $γ$-ray flares for which sufficient VLBA data exist, 10 of the flares (in 8 objects) fall within 1$σ$ uncertainties of the extrapolated epoch of zero separation from the core of a superluminal radio component. In each of two sources (0528+134 and 1730-130) two successive $γ$-ray flares were followed by the appearance of new superluminal components. We carried out statistical simulations which show that if the number of coincidences $\ge$ 10 the radio and $γ$-ray events are associated with each other at >99.999% confidence. Our analysis of the observed behavior, including variability of the polarized radio flux, of the sources before, during, and after the $γ$-ray flares suggests that the $γ$-ray events occur in the superluminal radio knots. This implies that the $γ$-ray flares are caused by inverse Compton scattering by relativistic electrons in the parsec-scale regions of the jet rather than closer to the central engine.

RNA secondary structure formation: a solvable model of heteropolymer folding

description: The statistical mechanics of heteropolymer structure formation is studied in the context of RNA secondary structures. A designed RNA sequence biased energetically towards a particular native structure (a hairpin) is used to study the transition between the native and molten phase of the RNA as a function of temperature. The transition is driven by a competition between the energy gained from the polymer's overlap with the native structure and the entropic gain of forming random contacts. A simplified Go-like model is proposed and solved exactly. The predicted critical behavior is verified via exact numerical enumeration of a large ensemble of similarly designed sequences.

Note that the Rm primer has a 21 base 5′ extension relative to the Rwt primer, and also differs at the 3′ base, which is the mutation site. Homozygosity for the wild type (CAA) allele was indicated if the common forward primer produced a band only with the 06500wt reverse primer. Homozygosity for the mutant (CA) allele was indicated if the common forward primer produced a band only with the 06500Rm reverse primer. Heterozygosity was indicated if the predicted products were generated with both primer combinations.

description: AM CVn binaries are hydrogen deficient compact binaries with an orbital period in the 5-65 min range and are predicted to be strong sources of persistent gravitational wave radiation. Using Gaia Data Release 2, we present the parallaxes and proper motions of 41 out of the 56 known systems. Compared to the parallax determined using the HST Fine Guidance Sensor we find that the archetype star, AM CVn, is significantly closer than previously thought. This resolves the high luminosity and mass accretion rate which models had difficulty in explaining. Using Pan-STARRS1 data we determine the absolute magnitude of the AM CVn stars. There is some evidence that donor stars have a higher mass and radius than expected for white dwarfs or that the donors are not white dwarfs. Using the distances to the known AM CVn stars we find strong evidence that a large population of AM CVn stars have still to be discovered. As this value sets the background to the gravitational wave signal of LISA, this is of wide interest. We determine the mass transfer rate for 15 AM CVn stars and find that the majority have a rate significantly greater than expected from standard models. This is further evidence that the donor star has a greater size than expected.

description: Background: The intensity of innovation could often be crucial for further economic development of the regions. Science and technology are often seen as the key factor supporting innovation in the regions. Furthermore, we can assume that higher intensity of research activities could lead to better economic performance. Objectives: Research aims to examine the link between the economic performance of the region and the intensity of science and technology activities, proxied by the share of employees in science and technology. Methods/Approach: The analysis is based on panel data for NUTS2 regions of the European Union (EU) member states. We conducted correlation analysis, panel Granger causality tests and regression analysis. Results: Our results suggest the existence of a significant positive correlation between GDP per capita and the share of employees in science and technology. Moreover, the regions with a higher intensity of science and technology activities are mostly characterized by relatively low unemployment rates. Conclusions: Research activities are positive correlated with regional GDP and negatively correlated with unemployment. However, increasing the share of employment in science and technology beyond a certain turning point would not lead to any further positive effects on regional economic performance.
The Sagittarius dwarf galaxy as a microlensing target
Creators: name: Cseresnjes, Patrick
name: Alard, Christophe
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We estimate the optical depth, time-scale distribution and fraction of microlensing events originating from sources in the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy (Sgr) lensed by deflectors in the Milky Way. These events have a time-scale longer by a factor ~1.3 than the MW/MW events and occur mainly on sources fainter than V~21 mag below Sgr's turn off. The fraction of events involving a source in Sgr depends on the location and extinction of the field and on the limiting magnitude of the survey. The contribution of the MW/Sgr events is negligible (<1%) at very low latitudes (|b|<2 deg.) but increases continuously towards higher |b| and becomes dominant near the highest density region of the dwarf galaxy. Sgr is present within the fields of current microlensing surveys and any optical depth map inferred from observations will become biased by the presence of Sgr towards higher |b| where the contribution of MW/Sgr events is significant. Systematic spectroscopic measurements on the sources of all the microlensing events may allow detection of this kind of event for which the degeneracy on the lens mass can be significantly reduced.

description: In order to introduce an integrated research information system, this will provide scientific institutions with the necessary information on research activities and research results in assured quality. Since data collection, duplication, missing values, incorrect formatting, inconsistencies, etc. can arise in the collection of research data in different research information systems, which can have a wide range of negative effects on data quality, the subject of data quality should be treated with better results. This paper examines the data quality problems in research information systems and presents the new techniques that enable organizations to improve their quality of research information.
