Dasineura obscura

description: Dasineura obscura Rondani, 1840
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1840b: 18.
TYPE LOCALITY: “ Prope aquas collinas Parmae [near a Parmese hilly wet land (Italy)]”.
TYPE MATERIAL: 1 specimen, syntype (sex not determinable, glued to cardboard stage, in poor condition) (OUMNH Verrall-Collin Coll.: Box. 21): syntype / Type / D. obscura Ex. Coll. Bigot; 1 specimen, syntype (sex not determinable, pinned on a stout, big-headed steel pin, which has partially destroyed the specimen) (OUMNH Verrall-Collin Coll.: Box. 21): syntype / Type / D. obscura Ex. Coll. Bigot; 1 specimen, syntype (sex not determinable, glued to cardboard stage, in poor condition) (OUMNH Verrall-Collin Coll.: Box. 21): syntype / Type / Dasyneura R. G. [illegible word] Cecydomyia [sic!]? D. obscura [illegible word] Rondani, Parma / D. obscura Ex. Coll. Bigot.
CURRENT STATUS: valid species (Skuhravá 1986: 157, Dahl et al. 1995: 26); unplaced species of Cecidomyiinae (Gagné 2010: 422); nomen dubium in Cecidomyiidae (Gagné & Jaschhof 2017: 576).
REMARKS: Rondani (1840b: 18) designated Dasineura obscura as the type species for the genus Dasineura Rondani, 1880 without providing either a detailed description, number or sex of the specimens. Gagné et al. (1997: 93) reported that the type series for Dasineura obscura was lost. Dasineura obscura was suppressed as the type species for the genus Dasineura by the I.C.Z.N. (1998: 246 [Opinion 1911]) because the species cannot be identified from the original description and the type material has been lost. We found three syntypes in the OUMNH during this study.

description: We present a probabilistic cross-correlation approach to estimate time delays in the context of reverberation mapping (RM) of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). We reformulate the traditional interpolated cross-correlation method as a statistically principled model that delivers a posterior distribution for the delay. The method employs Gaussian processes as a model for observed AGN light curves. We describe the mathematical formalism and demonstrate the new approach using both simulated light curves and available RM observations. The proposed method delivers a posterior distribution for the delay that accounts for observational noise and the non-uniform sampling of the light curves. This feature allow us to fully quantify its uncertainty and propagate it to subsequent calculations of dependent physical quantities, e.g., black hole masses. It delivers out-of-sample predictions, which enables us to subject it to model selection and it can calculate the joint posterior delay for more than two light curves. Because of the numerous advantages of our reformulation and the simplicity of its application, we anticipate that our method will find favour not only in the specialised community of RM, but in all fields where cross-correlation analysis is performed. We provide the algorithms and examples of their application as part of our Julia GPCC package.

description: SN 2011fe is the nearest supernova of Type Ia (SN Ia) discovered in the modern multi-wavelength telescope era, and it also represents the earliest discovery of a SN Ia to date. As a normal SN Ia, SN 2011fe provides an excellent opportunity to decipher long-standing puzzles about the nature of SNe Ia. In this review, we summarize the extensive suite of panchromatic data on SN 2011fe, and gather interpretations of these data to answer four key questions: 1) What explodes in a SN Ia? 2) How does it explode? 3) What is the progenitor of SN 2011fe? and 4) How accurate are SNe Ia as standardizeable candles? Most aspects of SN 2011fe are consistent with the canonical picture of a massive CO white dwarf undergoing a deflagration-to-detonation transition. However, there is minimal evidence for a non-degenerate companion star, so SN 2011fe may have marked the merger of two white dwarfs.

description: Models of pulsar radio emission that are based on an inner accelerating region require the existence of very strong and small scale surface magnetic field structures at or near the canonical polar cap. The aim of this paper is to identify a mechanism that creates such field structures and maintains them over a pulsar's lifetime. The likely physical process that can create the required 'magnetic spots' is the Hall drift occurring in the crust of a neutron star. It is demonstrated, that the Hall drift can produce small scale strong surface magnetic field anomalies (spots) on timescales of $10^4$ years by means of non-linear interaction between poloidal and toroidal components of the subsurface magnetic field. These anomalies are characterized by strengths of about $10^{14}$ G and curvature radii of field lines of about $10^6$ cm, both of which are fundamental for generation of observable radio emission.

description: The defects, the behavior of 3d electrons and the hyperfine interactions in binary Fe-Al alloys with different Al contents have been studied by the measurements of positron lifetime spectra, coincidence Doppler broadening spectra of positron annihilation radiation and Mossbauer spectra. The results show that on increasing the Al content in Fe-Al alloys, the mean positron lifetime of the alloys increase, while the mean electron density of the alloys decrease. The increase of Al content in binary Fe-Al alloys will decrease the amount of unpaired 3d electrons; as a consequence the probability of positron annihilation with 3d electrons and the hyperfine field decrease rapidly. Mossbauer spectra of binary Fe-Al alloys with Al content less than 25at% show discrete sextets, these alloys give ferromagnetic contribution at room temperature. The Mössbauer spectrum of Fe70Al30 shows a broad singlet. As Al content higher than 40 at%, the Mössbauer spectra of these alloys are singlet, that is, the alloys are paramagnetic. The behavior of 3d electron and its effect on the hyperfine field of the binary Fe-Al alloy has been discussed.

description: The increasing pervasiveness of social media creates new opportunities to study human social behavior, while challenging our capability to analyze their massive data streams. One of the emerging tasks is to distinguish between different kinds of activities, for example engineered misinformation campaigns versus spontaneous communication. Such detection problems require a formal definition of meme, or unit of information that can spread from person to person through the social network. Once a meme is identified, supervised learning methods can be applied to classify different types of communication. The appropriate granularity of a meme, however, is hardly captured from existing entities such as tags and keywords. Here we present a framework for the novel task of detecting memes by clustering messages from large streams of social data. We evaluate various similarity measures that leverage content, metadata, network features, and their combinations. We also explore the idea of pre-clustering on the basis of existing entities. A systematic evaluation is carried out using a manually curated dataset as ground truth. Our analysis shows that pre-clustering and a combination of heterogeneous features yield the best trade-off between number of clusters and their quality, demonstrating that a simple combination based on pairwise maximization of similarity is as effective as a non-trivial optimization of parameters. Our approach is fully automatic, unsupervised, and scalable for real-time detection of memes in streaming data.

description: In this paper, we give a new proof of the classical KAM theorem on the persistence of an invariant quasi-periodic torus, whose frequency vector satisfies the Bruno-Rüssmann condition, in real-analytic non-degenerate Hamiltonian systems close to integrable. The proof, which uses rational approximations instead of small divisors estimates, is an adaptation to the Hamiltonian setting of the method we introduced in a previous work for perturbations of constant vector fields on the torus.

description: Neurolyga fenestralis Rondani, 1840
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1840b: 24.
TYPE LOCALITY: Rondani gave no type locality in his original description but presumably it is Parma because he wrote “ legi in fenestris domus collinae [I collected it on the windows of the house on the hill]” and the work deals with Italian species.
TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♀, lectotype (head, thorax, three legs and wings on a slide) (MZUF: “ Diptera Rondani 4: n° 12” ex Box 65): 3317 / ♀ ex cass. 65, collezione Rondani, mounted XI.1994, Gagné/Malikul, Can. Balsam / Neurolyga fenestralis Rondani, lectotype (to be desig. by Jaschhof).
PARALECTOTYPES NOT EXAMINED: 1 ♀, 2 specimens (sex not determinable, head and abdomen damaged) (MZUF: Box 65): Neuroliga [sic!] Rnd. / fenestralis / 3317; 1 ♂ (abdomen partially destroyed) (OUMNH Verrall-Collin Coll.: Box. 21): syntype / Type / Neurolyga fenestralis Rondani Type Parma / N. fenestralis Ex.

Bigot.
CURRENT STATUS: valid species, as Campylomyza fenestralis (Skuhravá, 1986: 88; Dahl et al., 1995: 25); valid species, as Neurolyga fenestralis (Gagné 2010: 34, Gagné & Jaschhof 2017: 47).
REMARKS: Rondani (1840b: 24) described Neurolyga fenestralis without specifying either the number or the sex of the specimens, but giving a single measurement of length, despite there being four specimens in the type series found in this study. Gagné & Solinas (1996: 72) reported four MZUF females numbered “3317”. Jaschhof (1998: 194) designated a lectotype (♀) but did not mention the other MZUF and OUMNH syntypes (all are paralectotypes).

description: This paper describes how Large Deformation Diffeomorphic Metric Mapping (LDDMM) can be coupled with a Fast Multipole (FM) Boundary Element Method (BEM) to investigate the relationship between morphological changes in the head, torso, and outer ears and their acoustic filtering (described by Head Related Transfer Functions, HRTFs). The LDDMM technique provides the ability to study and implement morphological changes in ear, head and torso shapes. The FM-BEM technique provides numerical simulations of the acoustic properties of an individual's head, torso, and outer ears. This paper describes the first application of LDDMM to the study of the relationship between a listener's morphology and a listener's HRTFs. To demonstrate some of the new capabilities provided by the coupling of these powerful tools, we examine the classical question of what it means to ``listen through another individual's outer ears.'' This work utilizes the data provided by the Sydney York Morphological and Acoustic Recordings of Ears (SYMARE) database.

description: The processes leading to change in languages are manifold. In order to reduce ambiguity in the transmission of information, agreement on a set of conventions for recurring problems is favored. In addition to that, speakers tend to use particular linguistic variants associated with the social groups they identify with. The influence of other groups propagating across the speech community as new variant forms sustains the competition between linguistic variants. With the utterance selection model, an evolutionary description of language change, Baxter et al. [Phys. Rev. E 73, 046118 (2006)] have provided a mathematical formulation of the interactions inside a group of speakers, exploring the mechanisms that lead to or inhibit the fixation of linguistic variants. In this paper, we take the utterance selection model one step further by describing a speech community consisting of multiple interacting groups. Tuning the interaction strength between groups allows us to gain deeper understanding about the way in which linguistic variants propagate and how their distribution depends on the group partitioning. Both for the group size and the number of groups we find scaling behaviors with two asymptotic regimes. If groups are strongly connected, the dynamics is that of the standard utterance selection model, whereas if their coupling is weak, the magnitude of the latter along with the system size governs the way consensus is reached. Furthermore, we find that a high influence of the interlocutor on a speaker's utterances can act as a counterweight to group segregation.

description: This review dealt with generalized Melvin solutions for simple finite-dimensional Lie algebras. Each solution appears in a model which includes a metric and $n$ scalar fields coupled to $n$ Abelian 2-forms with dilatonic coupling vectors determined by simple Lie algebra of rank $n$. The set of $n$ moduli functions $H_s(z)$ comply with $n$ non-linear (ordinary) differential equations (of second order) with certain boundary conditions set. Earlier, it was hypothesized that these moduli functions should be polynomials in $z$ (so-called ``fluxbrane'' polynomials) depending upon certain parameters $p_s > 0$, $s = 1,\dots,n$. Here, we presented explicit relations for the polynomials corresponding to Lie algebras of ranks $n = 1,2,3,4,5$ and exceptional algebra $E_6$. Certain relations for the polynomials (e.g., symmetry and duality ones) were outlined. In a general case where polynomial conjecture holds, 2-form flux integrals are finite. The use of fluxbrane polynomials to dilatonic black hole solutions was also explored.

REMARKS: Rondani (1840b: 25) described Neurolyga turmalis without specifying either the number or the sex of the specimens but from more than one specimen: “ Plures turmatim volitantes [Many specimens flying in groups]”. Gagné & Solinas (1996: 73) reported not finding the type series of this nominal species and suggested designating a neotype. We could not locate any type specimens of this nominal species in our study.

description: Currently, proposed development processes are often considered too generic for operational use. This often leads to a misunderstanding of the project-specific processes and its refuse. One reason for non-appropriate project-specific processes is insufficient support for the tailoring of generic processes to project characteristics and context constraints. To tackle this problem, we propose a method for the acquisition of a project-specific process. This method uses a domain-specific process line for top-down process tailoring and supports bottom-up refinement of the defined generic process based on tracking process activities. The expected advantage of the method is tailoring efficiency gained by usage of a process line and higher process adherence gained by bottom-up adaptation of the process. The work described was conducted in the automotive domain. This article presents an overview of the so-called Emergent Process Acquisition method (EPAc) and sketches an initial validation study.

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: IntroductionDyspnoea and sputum retention are common problems in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). A High Frequency Airway Oscillating (HFAO) device offers respiratory muscle training and oscillatory mechanism with the aim of addressing dyspnoea and sputum retention, both common symptoms in COPD. The assessment of sputum clearance is challenging due to lack of reliable outcome measures. This thesis aims to assess the feasibility and clinical effectiveness of using a HFAO device in patients with COPD and assess the feasibility and responsiveness of the Lung Clearance Index as a surrogate measure for sputum clearance.MethodsThree main study designs were undertaken to assess the above aims.1. Systematic review to assess the effect of airway clearance devices on sputum clearance, exacerbation frequency and health related quality of life.2. Single arm feasibility study to assess the use of HFAO device and LCI.3. A randomised, double blinded, sham controlled trial to determine the clinical effectiveness of the HFAO device and the response of the LCI to an intervention.ResultsThe use of the HFAO device is feasible in stable COPD however in a double-blind randomised controlled trial did not demonstrate statistically significant improvements when compared to the sham. There were favourable improvements in the multidimensional dyspnoea profile however this was not significant over the sham. The LCI offers promise in the assessment of sputum clearance, and whilst this worsened following the intervention, there were improvements in peripheral ventilation (measured by the Sacin).ConclusionThe use of HFAO device does not improve dyspnoea in patients with stable COPD. There was no identified clinical responders’ group however further research should focus on patients with frequent exacerbations. The LCI can be a valuable outcome measure in the assessment of sputum clearance when supplemented by the Sacin.

CURRENT STATUS: valid species (Tanasijtshuk 1984: 225, Nartshuk et al. 1995: 7, Raspi & Benelli 2016: 200).
REMARKS: Rondani (1847b: 349) described Leucopis aphidivora from more than one specimen without specifying the number, the sex or the length of the specimens. He redescribed this nominal species (1848a: 434) as “ aphidipora ”, not used by subsequent authors (Becker 1905: 235, Morge 1962b: 436, Tanasijtshuk 1984: 225, Nartshuk et al. 1995: 7, Raspi & Benelli 2016: 200). Therefore, the original spelling “ aphidivora ” is to be used and “ aphidipora ” is as an incorrect subsequent spelling. In the MZUF specimens of Leucopis aphidivora and Leucopis aphidiperda are both numbered “1812”. Morge (1962b: 436) designated a lectotype (♀) but did not mention an additional two specimens (one, just the pupa) in the MZUF (both of these additional specimens are paralectotypes).

description: The present Insight compares the decisions of two chambers of the Polish Supreme Court regarding the domestic enforcement, under the terms laid down in the Polish Constitution, of a judgment of the Court of Justice, the independence of the judicial branch and the consequences of a judicial appointment. The starting point for the analysis is an overview of recent reforms of judiciary in Poland and the judgment of the Court of Justice in A.K. (Indépendance de la chambre disciplinaire de la Cour suprême) [GC] (judgement of 19 November 2019, joined cases C-585/18, C-624/18 and C-625/18). The first discussed ruling of the Supreme Court aimed to fully enforce that judgment of the Court of Justice, whereas the second sought to limit its actual impact.

description: We report on spectro-imaging observations employing Spitzer IRS and Herschel PACS, aiming to constrain the physical conditions around SMM3 and SMM4 in Serpens. The combined power of both instruments provides an almost complete wavelength coverage between 5 and 200 micron at an angular resolution of 10". We detect line emission from all major molecular (H2, CO, H2O and OH) and many atomic ([OI], [CII], [FeII], [SiII] and [SI]) coolants. Line emission tends to peak at distances of 10 - 20" from the protostellar sources, at positions of known outflow shocks. The only exception is [CII] which likely traces a PDR excited from the neighboring source SMM6. Excitation analysis indicates that H2 and CO originate from gas at two distinct rotational temperatures of 300 K and 1000 K, while H2O and OH emission corresponds to rotational temperatures of 100 - 200 K. The morphological and physical association between CO and H2 suggests a common excitation mechanism which allows direct comparisons between the two molecules. The CO/H2 abundance ratio varies from 10^-5 in the warm gas up to 10^-4 in the hotter regions. The occurrence of J-shocks is suggested by the strong atomic/ionic (except for [CII]) emission as well as a number of line ratio diagnostics. Both C- and J-shocks can account for the observed molecular emission, however J-shocks are strongly advocated by the atomic emission and provide simpler and more homogeneous solutions for CO and H2. C-shocks describe better the emission from H2O and OH. The variations in the CO/H2 abundance ratio for gas at different temperatures can be interpreted by their reformation rates in dissociative J-type shocks, or the simultaneous influence of both C and J shocks.

The financial crisis and the emergence of an EU "twin legitimacy deficit". - IV. Pringle and Gauweiler as symptoms of the contradictory response to the financial crisis. - V. The pivotal role of national governments in deepening the Eurozone's accountability deficit. - VI. Conclusion.
description: The Article deals with the complex legitimacy problem that arose in the aftermath of the Eurozone's sovereign debt crisis. This crisis has triggered a "twin legitimacy deficit", with output legitimacy undermined, in terms of the EU's capacity to react through European-wide redistributive policies, and the input legitimacy of national representative institutions severely limited under the strict conditionality put in place by the new governance system and by the "command-and-control relationship" imposed. The case law of the Court of Justice, in cases like Pringle (Court of Justice, judgment of 27 November 2012, case C-370/12) and Gauweiler (Court of justice, judgment of 16 June 2015, case C-62/14), has revealed the same paradox. On the one hand, we have witnessed the imposition by an "unaccountable technocracy" (or the self-imposition by Member States) of a series of automatisms that limit the autonomy of national governments. On the other hand, the "command-and-control" style of intervention is also meant to impose a structural convergence amongst very different national economies and can be considered as illegitimate. Technocratic and intergovernmental dominance has further worsened the disconnection between the EU and its citizens also from the input legitimacy perspective, favouring a sort of populist backlash against the Union.

description: I. Introduction. - II. A post-sovereign world. - III. Autonomy: sovereignty in disguise? - IV. European Sovereignty?
description: Spearheaded by French President Emmanuel Macron, the concept of "European sovereignty" is used increasingly often in debates on the role of the EU in the world. The concept's recurrent use makes it important to reflect on what it means to speak of a "European sovereignty" in the context of the institutional reality which is the EU. To contribute to this effort, in this insight I look at the role of the concept of "sovereignty" in the case law of the Court of Justice of the EU; I explore the differences and similarities between "sovereignty" and "autonomy" as the ordering principles of, respectively, the international and EU legal orders; and I point to a number of advantages and disadvantages that come with speaking of a "European sovereignty". I argue that, by refocussing political debate, the term may very well contribute to efforts to better equip the EU to face an increasingly unpredictable international environment. In the final analysis however, if the EU is to be able to "exist in the world as it currently exists, to defend our values and our interests", a European external sovereignty must go hand in hand with a meaningful degree of internal sovereignty. This, in turn, requires a reshuffling of the balance of power between EU institutions, with a greater role for those institutions that represent the interests of the EU citizenry, as well as a more effective enforcement of existing EU policies. In particular as far as the first of these requirements is concerned, it is unclear at this juncture whether President Macron is willing to take steps in this direction.

description: Observations of debris disks have significantly improved over the past decades, both in terms of sensitivity and spatial resolution. At near-infrared wavelengths, new observing strategies and post-processing algorithms allow us to drastically improve the final images, revealing faint structures in the disks. These structures inform us about the properties and spatial distribution of the small dust particles. We present new $H$-band observations of the disk around HD 129590, which display an intriguing arc-like structure in total intensity but not in polarimetry, and propose an explanation for the origin of this arc. Assuming geometric parameters for the birth ring of planetesimals, our model provides the positions of millions of particles of different sizes to compute scattered light images. We demonstrate that if the grain size distribution is truncated or strongly peaks at a size larger than the radiation pressure blow-out size we are able to produce an arc quite similar to the observed one. If the birth ring is radially narrow, given that particles of a given size have similar eccentricities, they will have their apocenters at the same distance from the star. Since this is where the particles will spend most of their time, this results in a "apocenter pile-up" that can look like a ring. Due to more efficient forward scattering this arc only appears in total intensity observations and remains undetected in polarimetric data. This scenario requires sharp variations either in the grain size distribution or for the scattering efficiencies $Q_\mathrm{sca}$. Alternative possibilities such as a wavy size distribution and a size-dependent phase function are interesting candidates to strengthen the apocenter pile-up. We also discuss why such arcs are not commonly detected in other systems, which can mainly be explained by the fact that most parent belts are usually broad.

Polymer-disordered liquid crystals: Susceptibility to electric field

description: When nematic liquid crystals are embedded in random polymer networks, the disordered environment disrupts the long-range order, producing a glassy state. If an electric field is applied, it induces large and fairly temperature-independent orientational order. To understand the experiments, we simulate a liquid crystal in a disordered polymer network, visualize the domain structure, and calculate the response to a field. Furthermore, using an Imry-Ma-like approach we predict the domain size and estimate the field-induced order. The simulations and analytic results agree with each other, and suggest how the materials can be optimized for electro-optic applications.
