Capitalist Transitions of Sustainability in the Post-Growth Economy: The absence of collective values of Sustainability in contemporary architecture as a result of capitalist emphasis on technological interventions and market-driven values
Creators: name: , Song
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023
Subjects: Sustainability, Capitalism, Technology, Distortion, Market

description: The inauguration of sustainability in the late 20th century marked a crucial turning point in the pursuit of harmonious coexistence between humanity and the finite nature of our planet. At the core of this concept lies the self-generating trinity of economy, resources, and society. However, this study contends that the fundamental transformation required to achieve collective sustainability necessitates the substitution of the capitalist system of production, which inherently hinders the potential of sustainable values. Regrettably, the collective values of sustainability have failed to attain economic, social, and environmental equilibrium due to the overemphasis on the financial aspect of the concept within the current capitalist order. This emphasis favours technological intervention as a means of capital accumulation through the introduction of new market segments that promote environmental awareness. Notably, the influence of this overemphasized economic value of sustainability in architecture misleads the complex definition of sustainability toward technological solutions for creating sustainable buildings due to their high market value. Therefore, it is essential to understand whose version of sustainability we seek to promote: one that targets the reconciliation of humans with nature or the regeneration of financial opportunities through addressing continuous symptoms of climate change rather than the root causes. This study identifies the latter as the current state of sustainability, driven by the technological advancements that capture public attention. As Dr. Walter Stahel of ETH opines, “We cannot solve the ecological and social challenges of the built environment by technological means alone.”(Stahel, 2016) The challenge is to preserve the desired economic interaction while prioritizing circularity in our consumption and production, which will be necessary to deliver the true values of sustainability to the reconciliation of humans, capitalism, and nature, rather than perpetuating the finite system’s continuous exploitation. Overall, this study proposes a novel perspective on how we perceive and define sustainability in the built environment as a distorted transition of the concept that unconsciously shapes our beliefs in favour of the capitalist order. Consequently, this argument seeks to demonstrate the interrelations between the features of the capitalist market and their problematic consequences for establishing genuine sustainability. Thus, this study speculates potential solutions by differentiating between the principles of market and technological interventions.

Cultivating collective freedom : agroecology as a lifeway for autonomy and good relations
Creators: name: Roger, Katherine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Agroecology is both a practical agricultural science which mimics ecological functions to enhance and protect the integrity of agroecosystems and a political movement spearheaded by grassroots actors – especially women, rural peasants, and Indigenous farmers – to address localized issues of food insecurity, ecological and biodiversity crises, the legacies of slavery and colonialism, and the privatization and concentration of land and agriculture in the hands of few. This thesis focuses on agroecology as a social and political movement, exploring how agroecological practices can lead to holistic well-being for communities and ecosystems. Rooted in a series of projects from the research collaborative, Agroecología en Latinoamérica: Construyendo Caminos, this thesis works closely with the Ecuadorian Movement for Social and Solidarity Economy (meSSe) and the Andean agroecological collective, Ayllu Kurikancha, to share the textured stories of how agroecological practices produce well-being by creating the conditions for autonomy and good relations. The research explores various definitions of well-being based on the experiences of agroecologists from Ayllu Kurikancha, incorporating storytelling and theorization from participant-collaborators through a feminist, decolonial, and relational research methodology. This thesis characterizes agroecology as a way of life that promotes well-being, celebrating the prefigurative politics of Ayllu Kurikancha in shaping sustainable and equitable futures for generations on the land to come. This vision of relational well-being is tied to a notion – or feeling – of autonomy and freedom which makes agroecology a desirable way of life. Thus, the stories shared here offer "possibility models" or blueprints for creating a future of well-being for humans and nature through agroecological practices.
A Complete Cosmological Solution to the Averaged Einstein Field Equations as found in Macroscopic Gravity

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

description: A formalism for analyzing the complete set of field equations describing Macroscopic Gravity is presented. Using this formalism, a cosmological solution to the Macroscopic Gravity equations is determined. It is found that if a particular segment of the connection correlation tensor is zero and if the macroscopic geometry is described by a flat Robertson-Walker metric, then the effective correction to the averaged Einstein Field equations of General Relativity i.e., the backreaction, is equivalent to a positive spatial curvature term. This investigation completes the analysis of [Phys. Rev. Lett., vol. 95, 151102, (2005)] and the formalism developed provides a possible basis for future studies.

description: We report the detection of a weak X-ray point source coincident with the nucleus of the bulgeless disk galaxy NGC 3621, recently discovered by Spitzer to display high ionization mid-infrared lines typically associated with AGN. These Chandra observations provide confirmation for the presence of an AGN in this galaxy, adding to the growing evidence that black holes do form and grow in isolated bulgeless disk galaxies. Although the low signal-to-noise ratio of the X-ray spectrum prevents us from carrying out a detailed spectral analysis of the nuclear source, the X-ray results, combined with the IR and optical spectroscopic results, suggests that NGC 3621 harbors a heavily absorbed AGN, with a supermassive black hole of relatively small mass accreting at a high rate. Chandra also reveals the presence of two bright sources straddling the nucleus located almost symmetrically at 20" from the center. Both sources have X-ray spectra that are well-fitted by an absorbed power-law model. Assuming they are at the distance of NGC 3621, these two sources have luminosities of the order of 1.e39 erg/s, which make them ULXs and suggest that they are black hole systems. Estimates of the black hole mass based on the X-ray spectral analysis and scaling laws of black hole systems suggest that the 2 bright sources might be intermediate mass black holes with M_BH of the order of a few thousand solar masses. However, higher quality X-ray data combined with multi-wavelength observations are necessary to confirm these conclusions.

Book Review

description: Michael Lecker provides us with a monograph exclusively focused on a single legal document from the time of the Prophet. Among both specialists in Islamic studies and the general public, this document is commonly known as the ‘Constitution of Madina’. Yet the creators of the document called it ‘kitab’— literally, ‘a written document’. The book derives from the author’s Ph.D. thesis submitted in Hebrew to the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, in 1982. Muslim historians and jurists have been familiar with this important document for centuries, and aware of its legal and theological implications for Islamic law. It was first brought to the attention of scholars in theWest at the end of the nineteenth century by Wellhausen, who accepted it as an authentic document from the time of the Prophet. Since then, such leading orientalists as Goldziher, Gil, Serjeant, Goto, U. Rubin and J. B. Simonsen have studied various aspects of it.

Hippocampal neurogenesis and the entorhinal-dentate gyrus circuit under healthy and pathological conditions
Creators: name: Ash, Alyssa
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Adult hippocampal neurogenesis involves the addition of new neurons in the dentate gyrus (DG) region beyond the developmental period, creating adult-born neurons that exhibit different intrinsic properties and plasticity than the older developmental population. Afferent connectivity differs between adult-born and developmentally-born neurons (ABNs/DBNs), with maturing ABNs mainly receiving lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) input, while DBNs receive inputs from both LEC and MEC. The LEC is implicated in early stages of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), with hallmark tau protein pathology developing here before progressing downstream to the DG and other regions. We sought to examine how adult-born neurons interact with other neurons in the DG during learning under healthy conditions and explore how tau pathology in the LEC affects memory performance and downstream DG neurons of different ages. In chapter 2, we examine the impact of silencing a fraction of the ABN population on DG activity using an inhibitory chemogenetic approach during spatial learning in the Morris Water Maze. We found that silencing ABNs led to an increase in activity in the DBNs via labelling with a DNA marker bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) and immediate early gene Fos. Silencing ABNs did not alter activity in other ABNs nor in inhibitory interneurons. These data indicate that ABNs can exert inhibition during learning on the developmental population, likely through direct monosynaptic connections from ABNs to DBNs. In chapter 3, we explore the impact of tau pathology in the LEC-DG circuit on memory performance and ABNs and DBNs respective structure and function. By injecting a virus that overexpresses human tau into a transgenic mouse with inducible florescent labelling of DBNs and ABNs, we found that tau pathology led to disrupted object recognition memory and altered morphology of ABNs and DBNs similarly. Overall, our data show that manipulating the ABN population can impact overall DG activity, and under a disease model, both ABNs and DBNs are similarly vulnerable to pathological insult. These findings provide insight into the impact of neurogenesis on hippocampal activity and provide evidence for synaptic changes at a circuit-level model of disease that could ultimately be targeted for early intervention before further disease progression.

description:
Harmful cyanobacterial blooms (CyanoHABs) are expanding world-wide, adversely affecting aquatic food production, recreational and tourism activities and safe drinking water supplies. China's inland waters have been increasingly threatened by CyanoHABs during the past several decades. The environmental factors controlling CyanoHABs are highly variable in space and time in China due to significant variations in climate, geography, geological and geochemical conditions among its many regions. Here, we synthesize diverse examples among Chinese water bodies regarding interactive effects of anthropogenic, climatic and geographic drivers influencing CyanoHAB potentials and dynamics in lakes and reservoirs; in order to provide a perspective and integrative approach to mitigating CyanoHABs. In China's many shallow water bodies, water quality is highly susceptible to human activity and to changing climatic and hydrological conditions, when compared to deeper lakes. Rapid increases in population, economic activity, and wastewater have accelerated CyanoHABs in China since 1980s, especially in the heavily urbanized, agricultural and industrial regions in the middle and lower Yangtze River basins. Climatic changes have provided an additional catalyst for expansion of CyanoHABs. In particular, rising spring temperatures have accelerated the onset and proliferation of Microcystis spp, blooms in the middle and lower reaches of Yangtze River basin. Large hydroelectric and water supply projects, like the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR), have altered hydrological regimes, and have led to an increase of CyanoHABs in reservoirs and tributaries due to increases in water residence times. Manipulating water level fluctuations in the TGR may prove useful for controlling CyanoHAB in its tributary bays. Overall,CyanoHAB mitigation strategies will have to incorporate both N and P input reductions in these shallow systems. Furthermore, nutrient reduction strategies must consider climate change-induced increases in extreme weather events, including more intense rainfall and protracted heat waves and droughts, which can extend the magnitudes and duration of CyanoHABs. Ensuring the maintenance of natural hydrologic connectivity between lakes and rivers is of utmost importance in mitigating CyanoHABs throughout China.
Dipole-glass concept and history-dependent phenomena in relaxors

description: The possibility to explain basic physical properties of relaxors within the concept of the dipole-glass transition is discussed. We argue that this concept provides the only consistent picture accounting of all known anomalous features of relaxors. The origin of their history-dependent properties can be naturally traced to the main paradigm of glass-state theory - the existence of numerous metastable states. Based on this paradigm phenomenological description of known history-dependent phenomena in relaxors agrees qualitatively with experiments.

HST Images and KPNO Spectroscopy of the Binary Black Hole Candidate SDSS J153636.22+044127.0

description: We present HST WFPC2/PC images and KPNO 4-m longslit spectroscopy of the QSO SDSS J153636.22+044127.0, which we advanced as a candidate binary supermassive black hole. The images reveal a close companion coincident with the radio source identified by Wrobel & Laor (2009). It appears to be consistent with a M_g ~ -21.4 elliptical galaxy, if it is at the QSO redshift. The spectroscopy, however, shows no spatial offset of the red or blue Balmer line subcomponents. The companion is thus not the source of either the red or blue broad line systems; SDSS J153636.22+044127.0 cannot be explained as a chance superposition of objects, or as an ejected black hole. Over the Delta T=0.75 yr difference between the rest frame epochs of the present and SDSS spectroscopy, we find no velocity shift to within 40 km/s, nor any amplitude change in either broad line system. The lack of a shift can be admitted under the binary hypothesis if the implied radial velocity is a larger component of the full orbital velocity than was assumed in our earlier work. A strong test of the binary hypothesis requires yet longer temporal baselines. The lack of amplitude variations is unusual for the alternative explanation of this object as a "double-peaked" emitter; we further argue that SDSS J153636.22+044127.0 has unique spectral features that have no obvious analogue with other members of this class.

description: The document reports the result and analysis of the collection of costs reported by partners for the data services provided to the community, including the costs involved in data management, provision of FAIR data and participation to the EOSC. The collection was performed by five PaNOSC partners that run very different infrastructures in terms of their nature (synchrotrons, neutron sources, free electron lasers, lasers), size, FAIRness level achieved at the moment of the cost collection and services provided, lifecycle and accounting practices. However, although the identification of cost drivers was a challenging exercise, the information collected could help other RIs to estimate the costs involved in the provision of these services. The costs associated with the EOSC are based on the available budget and not on the actual costs ruled by demand. The future demand of services from a wider community is still to be assessed, since the services are still being setup and made available openly. However, it is clear that with the current budget RIs will provide services, including long term storage and curation, on a best effort basis and that if a wider community will need to benefit, funding will need to be increased proportionally.

We will keep the group as general as possible and utilizing the powerful moduli matrix formalism to provide the moduli spaces of vortices and derive the corresponding master equations. Furthermore, we study numerically the vortices applying a radial Ansatz to solve the obtained master equations and we find especially a splitting of the magnetic fields, when the coupling constants for the trace-part and the traceless part of the Chern-Simons term are varied, such that the Abelian magnetic field density can become negative near the origin of the vortex while the non-Abelian part stays positive, and vice versa.

Restoration of traditional marine food systems as climate adaptation strategy for coastal First Nations
Creators: name: Justrabo, Charity
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Altered ocean conditions caused by climate change are causing shifts in the distribution of marine species. As a result of these biogeographic shifts, coastal Indigenous communities are experiencing significant social, economic, and cultural impacts associated with declines in culturally important species (CIS). There are concerns that this may further exacerbate losses that have occurred due to colonialism. Due to the complexity of the social-ecological systems that have evolved around CIS, it is of vital importance to evaluate the effects on both the social and ecological aspects of the system. This research is the result of a collaborative project with the Haida community of Skidegate which investigates these impacts upon the traditional marine food system and opportunities for building adaptive capacity. A mixed-methods approach was used: 1) analysis of projected relative abundance of CIS within 100 km of Skidegate under two climate scenarios and 2) interviews and a focus group with knowledge holders. Seven functional groups were created based upon the life-history traits of CIS with declines projected in relative abundance for five of the functional groups by 2080 relative to 2000 under both high and low emissions scenarios: clams and cockles, Pacific salmon, Pacific herring, sharks and groundfish. Crustaceans and emerging species (albacore tuna, market squid) were projected to increase representing an opportunity for novel fisheries. Methods of preservation identified in interviews were used as biocultural functional groups with CIS groups classified according to relevant preservation methods to assess the combined social-ecological impacts of changing abundance. Redundancy within biocultural functional groups were then assessed, e.g., declines in Pacific salmon abundance would lead to declines in smoking as this was the only group that was preserved using this method. Additionally, findings from interview and focus group analysis indicate that local adaptation strategies that can be implemented within the existing capacity of the community were prioritized by participants. Many strategies described facilitate the restoration of the Skidegate traditional marine food system signifying that restoration is adaptation. This research is intended to increase the decision-making capacity of Skidegate for fisheries management and illustrates how Indigenous self-determination should be supported within adaptation planning.

Subjects: subject: Computers and Society (cs.CY)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: The study examined the relationship between Java programming self-efficacy and programming background of engineering students in a Nigerian University. One hundred and ninety two final year engineering students randomly selected from six engineering departments of the university participated in the study. Two research instruments: Programming Background Questionnaire and Java Programming Self-Efficacy Scale were used in collecting relevant information from the subjects. The resulting data were analyzed using Pearson product correlation and Multiple regression analysis. Findings revealed that Java Programming self-efficacy has no significant relationship with each of the computing and programming background factors. It was additionally obtained that the number of programming courses offered and programming courses weighed scores were the only predictors of Java self-efficacy.

description: Despite the reliability of intelligence measures in predicting important life outcomes such as educational achievement and mortality, the exact configuration and neural correlates of cognitive abilities remain poorly understood, especially in childhood and adolescence. Therefore, we sought to elucidate the factorial structure and neural substrates of child and adolescent intelligence using two cross-sectional, developmental samples (CALM: N = 551 (N = 165 imaging), age range: 5-18 years, NKI-Rockland: N = 337 (N = 65 imaging), age range: 6-18 years). In a preregistered analysis, we used structural equation modelling (SEM) to examine the neurocognitive architecture of individual differences in childhood and adolescent cognitive ability. In both samples, we found that cognitive ability in lower and typical-ability cohorts is best understood as two separable constructs, crystallized and fluid intelligence, which became more distinct across development, in line with the age differentiation hypothesis. Further analyses revealed that white matter microstructure, most prominently the superior longitudinal fasciculus, was strongly associated with crystallized (gc) and fluid (gf) abilities. Finally, we used SEM trees to demonstrate evidence for developmental reorganization of gc and gf and their white matter substrates such that the relationships among these factors dropped between 7-8 years before increasing around age 10. Together, our results suggest that shortly before puberty marks a pivotal phase of change in the neurocognitive architecture of intelligence.

description: The performance of over 2000 students in introductory calculus-based electromagnetism (E&M) courses at four large research universities was measured using the Brief Electricity and Magnetism Assessment (BEMA). Two different curricula were used at these universities: a traditional E&M curriculum and the Matter & Interactions (M&I) curriculum. At each university, post-instruction BEMA test averages were significantly higher for the M&I curriculum than for the traditional curriculum. The differences in post-test averages cannot be explained by differences in variables such as pre-instruction BEMA scores, grade point average, or SAT scores. BEMA performance on categories of items organized by subtopic was also compared at one of the universities; M&I averages were significantly higher in each topic. The results suggest that the M&I curriculum is more effective than the traditional curriculum at teaching E&M concepts to students, possibly because the learning progression in M&I reorganizes and augments the traditional sequence of topics, for example, by increasing early emphasis on the vector field concept and by emphasizing the effects of fields on matter at the microscopic level.

description: Welcome to the Scottish Journal for Residential Child Care. When I was in direct practice, I had the nagging feeling that I never knew enough. In the earliest days of my career, I was never able to find much to read that addressed what I was seeing in my practice. Now I have the opposite problem; there is so much more being written that it is impossible to read everything, and difficult to know where to start or how to prioritise ! To help this situation, the journal has been offering reviews of books relevant to our field. Having an introduction through the eyes of someone else can help you to decide whether a book might be useful.

description: Publicado em O Estado da Arte - Estadão (https://estadodaarte.estadao.com.br/educacao-era-cloroquina-marcio-miotto/ ), o texto pretende chamar a atenção a duas questões sobre o "ensino emergencial remoto" no contexto da Pandemia de 2020: a respeito do “ensino remoto”, talvez não se tenha dado a devida atenção ao que o termo diz de “remoto”, isto é, ao que está em jogo quanto às tecnologias empregadas. E quanto à discussão sobre o “ensino”, talvez a discussão pedagógica, sobre os efeitos do “ensino remoto” (que não é EAD), também não tenha sido inteiramente feita. Qual é o sentido do “ensino remoto” na pandemia de 2020, entre as promessas tecnológicas e o negacionismo vigente?
Some applications of duality for Lévy processes in a half-line

description: The central result of this paper is an analytic duality relation for real-valued Lévy processes killed upon exiting a half-line. By Nagasawa's theorem, this yields a remarkable time-reversal identity involving the Lévy process conditioned to stay positive. As examples of applications, we construct a version of the Lévy process indexed by the entire real line and started from $-\infty$ which enjoys a natural spatial-stationarity property, and point out that the latter leads to a natural Lamperti-type representation for self-similar Markov processes in $(0,\infty)$ started from the entrance point 0+.

Investigation of photonic crystal cavities for a silicon photonic quantum computing with spin qubit architecture

description: Quantum computing promises to fundamentally change our current computational capabilities, offering exponential speedup in many key areas. While many different quantum computing architectures exist, a clear way to achieve scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computing remains elusive. Photonic quantum computing with spin qubits is a promising novel quantum computing architecture. It aims to solve many of the present-day issues; however, not all necessary photonic components are available as of now. In particular, a photonic cavity for the spin qubit-photon interface is missing. In this work, we give the key characteristics and requirements for such a photonic cavity and experimentally demonstrate a cavity system with potential to meet them. To this end, we design, simulate, and experimentally characterise a photonic crystal slot-bridge nanobeam cavity fulfilling the first key characteristic: an optimised quality factor to mode volume ratio. We investigate the sensitivity of the cavity for different design parameters and achieve good agreement with simulations. This cavity demonstration also serves as a guideline for future design optimisation aiming to achieve better performance values. We further demonstrate a permanent post-fabrication trimming method based on laser-assisted local surface oxidation on the slot-bridge nanobeam cavities. This fulfills the second key characteristic, namely that of trimming capability of the cavity resonance. Finally, we give an outlook on possible future work to improve the trimming method and cavity optimisation.

description: We present a protocol of remote nondestructive parity measurement (RNPM) on a pair of quantum memories. The protocol works as a single module for key operations such as entanglement generation, Bell measurement, parity check measurement, and an elementary gate for extending one-dimensional cluster states. The RNPM protocol is achieved by a simple combination of devices such as lasers, optical fibers, beam splitters, and photon detectors. Despite its simplicity, a quantum repeater composed of RNPM protocols is shown to have a communication time that scales sub-exponentially with the channel length, and it can be further equipped with entanglement distillation. With a reduction in the internal losses, the RNPM protocol can also be used for generating cluster states toward measurement-based quantum communication.

description: IGR J19405-3016 is reported in the 3rd IBIS catalog as being one of its lowest significance sources (~4.6 sigma under an exposure of about 371 ks). This leads to a caveat in multi-wavelength study although the source was identified in optical as a Seyfert 1. The currently increased INTEGRAL data stimulate us to investigate the reality of this source. We analyze all available observations carried out by INTEGRAL and Swift on IGR J19405-3016. We find that IGR J19405-3016 has a detection significance of ~ 9.4 sigma in the 20-60 keV band during the observational period between March 2003 and March 2008. Thus confirms a real source detection reported previously. The source position and error location are therefore updated. The source is found to be constant over years at the hard X-rays. Over the three XRT observations, the source flux varied by up to 39% from the average, and the spectrum is generally soft. The combined XRT/ISGRI spectrum is well fitted with a simple power law model (photon index 2.11+-0.03). Such a photon index is well consistent with the mean value 1.98 (dispersion 0.27) as obtained from Swift/BAT AGN samples at 14-195 keV. The spectral slope of IGR J19405-3016 is larger than the average spectral slope found by Molina et al. (2009). A similar discrepancy is found with the results of Beckmann et al. (2009) regarding Seyfert 1 AGNs. A possible explanation of this simple spectral description may be that the low level of the column density allows for the `true' spectrum to appear at soft X-rays as well.
