description: We present the discovery of the Type II supernova SN 2023ixf in M101 and follow-up photometric and spectroscopic observations, respectively, in the first month and week of its evolution. Our discovery was made within a day of estimated first light, and the following light curve is characterized by a rapid rise ($\approx5$ days) to a luminous peak ($M_V\approx-18.2$ mag) and plateau ($M_V\approx-17.6$ mag) extending to $30$ days with a fast decline rate of $\approx0.03$ mag day$^{-1}$. During the rising phase, $U-V$ color shows blueward evolution, followed by redward evolution in the plateau phase. Prominent flash features of hydrogen, helium, carbon, and nitrogen dominate the spectra up to $\approx5$ days after first light, with a transition to a higher ionization state in the first $\approx2$ days. Both the $U-V$ color and flash ionization states suggest a rise in the temperature, indicative of a delayed shock breakout inside dense circumstellar material (CSM). From the timescales of CSM interaction, we estimate its compact radial extent of $\sim(3-7)\times10^{14}$ cm. We then construct numerical light-curve models based on both continuous and eruptive mass-loss scenarios shortly before explosion. For the continuous mass-loss scenario, we infer a range of mass-loss history with $0.1-1.0\,M_\odot\,{\rm yr}^{-1}$ in the final $2-1$ yr before explosion, with a potentially decreasing mass loss of $0.01-0.1\,M_\odot\,{\rm yr}^{-1}$ in $\sim0.7-0.4$ yr toward the explosion. For the eruptive mass-loss scenario, we favor eruptions releasing $0.3-1\,M_\odot$ of the envelope at about a year before explosion, which result in CSM with mass and extent similar to the continuous scenario. We discuss the implications of the available multiwavelength constraints obtained thus far on the progenitor candidate and SN 2023ixf to our variable CSM models.

Year: 2001

description: A cross sectional study was carried out from April to June 2001 among residents of Diredawa town aged 18 year and above to assess the magnitude and determinants of stigma related to HIV/AIDS and PLWHA. A multistage sampling procedure was used to select 845 study subjects. Both qualitative and quantitative data collection methods were utilized. Although majority of respondents were well aware about HIV/AIDS, there is still misconceptions about its casual transmission. Most respondents manifest at least some form of stigma towards PLWHA. Majority 527(68.7%) of the respondents agreed that PLWHA should not have child and 463(60.4%) of them to keep the HIV positive status of their family member secrete. Three hundred ninety six (51.6%) of the respondents said that PLWHA should never be trusted and 363(47.3%) respondents believed that PLWHA deserve the disease. More than a quarter of them 275(35.9%) also had an attitude of separating PLWHA from others to safeguard the public and 269(35.1%) reported their unwillingness to let their children learn in a school where one of the students is known to be HIV positive. Significant (P<0.05) negative correlation between stigmatizing attitude and knowledge of HIV/AIDS, belief about its casual transmission and income was established. On multivariate analysis, level of education, income, knowledge of HIV/AIDS, and belief about casual transmission of HIV were found to be significant (P< 0.05) negative predictors of stigmatizing attitude towards HIV and PLWHA. Addressing the issues of stigma in all activities that advocate disclosure of HIV status, encouraging PLWHA to disclose their HIV status, IEC regarding casual transmission of HIV and further studies to enrich knowledge about stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS and PLWHA are recommended

description: An Easter postcard sent to Theodore Monk during his service in England in World War I. Features an image of a boy standing in a pew and an Easter greeting, on recto, and a handwritten message from his son, Sammy, on verso. Biography: Lieutenant Colonel Theodore Benning Monk was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba. In 1907, he enlisted with the active militia and in 1908 became a gunner with the 13th Battery, Canadian Field Artillery (Manitoba Regiment). He later went into law and real estate. He moved to Victoria in 1908 and started work in the City Engineer's Department. He established his own real estate firm with Roger Monteith, and among other real estate activities sought to develop the coastal town of Clo-ose, B.C. as a resort. In World War I he served with the 54th Battalion and fought in Vimy Ridge. He was Commanding Officer of the Gordon Head Cadet Training Camp at the present campus of the University of Victoria, 1940-1941, and became a liaison officer of the U.S. Army from 1942-1944. From 1930 on, Monk campaigned actively for a uniquely Canadian flag and submitted numerous designs to the competition for a new flag in 1968.

description: We present a comprehensive physical and chemical study of the fragmentation and star formation activity towards the massive clump AGAL G338.9188+0.5494 harbouring the extended green object EGO 338.92+0.55(b). The presence of an EGO embedded in a massive clump, suggests, at clump scale, that high-mass star formation is occurring. The main goal of this work is to find evidence of such high-mass star formation, but at core scale. Using mm observations of continuum and lines obtained from the ALMA database at Bands 6 and 7, we study the substructure of the massive clump. The angular resolution of the data is about 0.5'', which allow us to resolve structures of about 0.01pc ($\sim$ 2000 au) at the distance of 4.4 kpc. The continuum emission at 340 GHz reveals that the molecular clump is fragmented in five cores, labeled from C1 to C5. The $^{12}$CO J=3--2 emission shows the presence of molecular outflows related to three of them. The analysis of the CH$_3$CN and CH$_3$CCH emissions suggests temperatures of about 340 and 72~K, respectively, for C1, showing that the methyl cyanide would trace a gas layer closer to the protostar than the methyl acetylene. The obtained mass of core C1 ranges from 3 to 10 M$_{\odot}$. We found that the discovered molecular outflow arising from core C1 should be the main responsible for the 4.5 $μ$m extended emission. The average mass and energy of such a molecular outflow is about 0.5 M$_{\odot}$~and $10^{46}$~erg, respectively, which suggest that 10 M$_{\odot}$ is the most likely mass value for core C1. Additionally we found that the region is chemically very rich with several complex molecular species. Particularly, from the analysis of the CN emission we found strong evidence that such a radical is indirectly tracing the molecular outflows, more precisely the border of the cavity walls carved out by such outflows.

description: The absorption features in spectra of high-redshift background radio sources, caused by hyperfine structure lines of hydrogen atoms in the intervening structures, are known collectively as the 21-cm forest. They provide a unique probe of small-scale structures during the epoch of reionization, and can be used to constrain the properties of the dark matter (DM) thought to govern small-scale structure formation. However, the signals are easily suppressed by heating processes that are degenerate with a warm DM model. Here we propose a probe of both the DM particle mass and the heating history of the Universe, using the one-dimensional power spectrum of the 21-cm forest. The one-dimensional power spectrum measurement not only breaks the DM model degeneracy but also increases the sensitivity, making the probe actually feasible. Making 21-cm forest observations with the upcoming Square Kilometre Array has the potential to simultaneously determine both the DM particle mass and the heating level in the early Universe, shedding light on the nature of DM and the first galaxies.

description: A method we developed recently for the reconstruction of the initial density field in the nearby Universe is applied to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7. A high-resolution N-body constrained simulation (CS) of the reconstructed initial condition, with $3072^3$ particles evolved in a 500 Mpc/h box, is carried out and analyzed in terms of the statistical properties of the final density field and its relation with the distribution of SDSS galaxies. We find that the statistical properties of the cosmic web and the halo populations are accurately reproduced in the CS. The galaxy density field is strongly correlated with the CS density field, with a bias that depend on both galaxy luminosity and color. Our further investigations show that the CS provides robust quantities describing the environments within which the observed galaxies and galaxy systems reside. Cosmic variance is greatly reduced in the CS so that the statistical uncertainties can be controlled effectively even for samples of small volumes.

description: We discuss the effects of nonhomogeneous magnetic fields in liquid metal flows in two different configurations. In the first configuration, we briefly report the impact of fringing magnetic fields in a turbulent Rayleigh-B{é}nard convection setup, where it was shown that the global heat transport decreases with an increase of fringe-width. The convective motion in regions of strong magnetic fields is confined near the sidewalls. In the second configuration, we numerically study the effects of an oscillating magnetic obstacle with different frequencies of oscillation on liquid metal flow in a duct. The Reynolds number is low such that the wake of the stationary magnetic obstacle is steady. The transverse oscillation of the magnet creates a sinusoidal time-dependent wake reminiscent of the vortex shedding behind solid obstacles. We examine the behavior of the streamwise and spanwise components of the Lorentz forces as well as the work done by the magnets on the fluid. The frequency of the oscillation of the streamwise component of Lorentz force is twice that of the spanwise component as in the case of lift and drag on solid cylindrical obstacles. The total drag force and the energy transferred from the magnets to the fluid show a non-monotonic dependence on the frequency of oscillation of the magnetic obstacle indicative of a resonant excitation of the sinusoidal vortex shedding.

description: Background: Obstructed labor accounted for (8%) of maternal deaths, worldwide. Professional assisted delivery using a partograph during labour has paramount importance in identifying any deviation during labour, Even though; partograph use is influenced by different factors as obtained from the literatures, magnitude of partograph utilization and associated factors is not well determined in the study area. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the magnitude of partograph use and factors that affect its utilization among obstetric caregivers in public health institutions of West Showa Zone, Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia 2015. Methods: A mixed method, quantitative and qualitative institution based cross-sectional study was conducted from December 2014 to February 2015, in randomly selected, two hospitals and five health centers from West Shoa Zone public health facilities. Two hundred sixty six obstetric care givers participated in the study. In-depth interview were conducted among 14 purposively selected health professionals while 44 client observations were made in all selected health facilities by observation checklist to see the actual utilization of partograph. Quantitative data were collected using a structured self-administered questionnaire. Binary logistic regressions analysis was carried out to assess associations of selected factors with the outcome variable. Significance level and association of variables was assessed using 95% confidence interval (CI) and (COR, AOR). Result: A total of 259 (97.4%) health workers participated in the study. In this study, perceived prevalence from quantitative part of partograph use reveals 84.6%, but observation among 44 clients in the labour ward indicated that only five items out of fifteen parameters listed on the partograph were completed. A fourth of all professionals did not know the start time of partograph mapping and 35.9 had unfavorable attitude toward partograph use. In this study midwives (AOR=13 CI=2.6-66.2) Knowledge (AOR=7, CI= (2.8-21.8), availability of the tool (AOR=8.8 CI: 2.8-27.6), training (AOR=4, CI=0.9-21.7) and institution (hospitals) (AOR=0.09, CI: 0.03-0.26) were significantly associated with partograph utilization. Conclusion: Though high proportion of obstetric care providers use partograph to follow the progress of labour, these observation findings indicated that continues monitoring of maternal and fetal condition was lacking. This will affect proper identification of the action line which will farther affect maternal and fetal outcome. Recommendation: Both in-service and pre-service training on partograph use, continuous mentoring, supervision and staff motivation could improve the proper use of the tool.

description: Organic microcavities are photonic nanostructures that strongly confine the electromagnetic field, allowing exotic quantum regimes of light-matter interaction with disordered organic semiconductors. The unambiguous interpretation of the spectra of organic microcavities has been a long-standing challenge due to several competing effects involving electrons, vibrations and cavity photons. Here we present a theoretical framework that is able to describe the main spectroscopic features of organic microcavities consistently. We introduce a class of light-matter excitations called dark vibronic polaritons, which strongly emit but only weakly absorb light in the same frequency region of the bare electronic transition. Successful comparison with experimental data demonstrates the applicability of our theory. The proposed microscopic understanding of organic microcavities paves the way for the development of optoelectronic devices enhanced by quantum optics.

description: This paper presents a new method for deriving the waiting time distribution of the lowest class in an accumulating priority (AP) queue with positive Lévy input. The priority of a non-atomic customer (particle) is a function of their class and waiting time in the system, and the particles with the highest AP are the next to be processed. The method relies on the construction of a workload overtaking process and solving a first-passage time problem using an appropriate stopping time.

description: Seit Anwendung des neuen Volksschulgesetzes 2005 hat die Schule den Auftrag, Kinder mit besonderem Förderbedarf in Regelklassen zu integrieren. Dies erfordert eine neue Kooperation zwischen Regellehrpersonen und Lehrkräften der schulischen Heilpädagogik. Wie sich diese unterrichtsbezogene Kooperation auf die Klassenführung auswirkt, ist noch wenig erforscht. In der vorliegenden Master-Arbeit befassen sich die Autorinnen mit der Fragestellung, welche Unterschiede bezüglich ausgewählter Aspekte der Klassenführung zwischen dem Unterricht mit und dem Unterricht ohne Beteiligung einer Schulischen Heilpädagogin oder eines Schulischen Heilpädagogen zu beobachten sind. Als Methode zur Erhebung wählten die Autorinnen die Videographie: Sie filmten in zwei Klassen je drei Lektionen mit und ohne unterrichtsbezogene Kooperation und untersuchten ausgewählte Aspekte der Klassenführung. Mit Hilfe von niedrig und hoch inferenten Instrumenten wurden die erhobenen Daten ausgewertet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass eine gelingende Kooperation sich positiv auf die ausgewählten Aspekte der Klassenführung auswirkt und auch für Klassen mit verhaltensauffälligen Kindern unterstützend sein kann.

description: Problem statement: assessment of Ethiopian Hospitals Reform Implementation Guideline (EHRIG) Infection Prevention (IP) standards met were too low. Objective: To increase the percentage of compliance Ethiopian Hospitals Reform Implementation Guideline (EHRIG) standards from 25% to 75% by the end of August 2013. Methodology: Pre-post intervention study was used to evaluate the performance of IP standards. A pre-intervention baseline data were collected in May 2013. Based on the baseline, it was found out that the EHRIG, IP standards met were low scored (i.e. two out of the eight). in ordered to identify the root cause of the low compliance, fish bone analysis was made and decision matrix was used to have a comparative analysis of intervention strategies. Then developing organizational policy based on EHRIG and orientation for head nurses on the policy was done as an intervention. After, an intervention was conducted to improve the EHRIG, IP standards and a follow up data was collected in July 2005. The same indicator was used for the assessment of performance. Result: Compliance with Ethiopian Hospitals Reform Implementation Guideline (EHRIG) standards for infection prevention increased from 2 (25%) to 6 (75%) out of 8. Conclusion: developing organizational guideline and policies based on national standards and policies, resulted in improving IP standards. Recommendation: Full implementation of the EHRIG, IP strategies should be made and it is better to give better attention and continuous follow up of the overall performance of standardized IP practices.

description: Context-free session types describe structured patterns of communication on heterogeneously-typed channels, allowing the specification of protocols unconstrained by tail recursion. The enhanced expressive power provided by non-regular recursion comes, however, at the cost of the decidability of subtyping, even if equivalence is still decidable. We present an approach to subtyping context-free session types based on a novel kind of observational preorder we call $\mathcal{XYZW}$-simulation, which generalizes $\mathcal{XY}$-simulation (also known as covariant-contravariant simulation) and therefore also bisimulation and plain simulation. We further propose a subtyping algorithm that we prove to be sound, and present an empirical evaluation in the context of a compiler for a programming language. Due to the general nature of the simulation relation upon which it is built, this algorithm may also find applications in other domains.

description: Seit 1998 kann im Kanton Aargau integrativ beschult werden. Erst in jüngerer Zeit hat jedoch die Mehrheit der Schulen diese Schulungsform gewählt. Vor der Einführung dieser Schulungsart müssen Schulen von Gesetzes wegen ihre pädagogischen Grundsätze für die integrative Schulung als Konzept niederschreiben. Parallel dazu portiert der Kanton durch Gesetzesgrundlagen und durch Schulevaluation seine Vorstellungen von Integrativer Schulung an die Schulen. Vor dem Hintergrund dieser Prozesse untersuchte diese Arbeit, wie aus kantonaler Sicht erfolgreich integrierende Schulen integrative Schulung darstellen und welche Wertvorstellungen sich daraus ableiten lassen. Drei Integrationskonzepte aus erfolgreich evaluierten Schulen wurden mittels der Dokumentarischen Methode nach ihren Orientierungen untersucht. Es konnten Bestrebungen ausgemacht werden, die stärkend auf das Kollektiv der Einzelschule wirken, damit die Akzeptanz einer Umsetzung von integrativer Schulung stärken, was sich indirekt auf Wertvorstellungen zu Integrativer Schulung fördernd auswirken kann.

description: Optical polarimeters are typically calibrated using measurements of stars with known and stable polarization parameters. However, there is a lack of such stars available across the sky. Many of the currently available standards are not suitable for medium and large telescopes due to their high brightness. Moreover, as we find, some of the used polarimetric standards are in fact variable or have polarization parameters that differ from their cataloged values. Our goal is to establish a sample of stable standards suitable for calibrating linear optical polarimeters with an accuracy down to $10^{-3}$ in fractional polarization. For five years, we have been running a monitoring campaign of a sample of standard candidates comprised of 107 stars distributed across the northern sky. We analyzed the variability of the linear polarization of these stars, taking into account the non-Gaussian nature of fractional polarization measurements. For a subsample of nine stars, we also performed multiband polarization measurements. We created a new catalog of 65 stars (see Table 2) that are stable, have small uncertainties of measured polarimetric parameters, and can be used as calibrators of polarimeters at medium- and large-size telescopes.

description: Two main frameworks for defining transverse momentum dependent (TMD) parton densities are the Collins-Soper-Sterman (CSS) formalism, and the Parton Branching (PB) approach. While PB-TMDs have an explicit dependence on a single scale which is used to evolve PB-TMDs in momentum space, TMDs defined in CSS formalism present a double-scale evolution in renormalization and rapidity scales, via a pair of coupled evolution equations. In this letter I leverage the Collins-Soper kernel determined from simulated Drell Yan transverse momentum spectra using PB-TMDs, and provide, for the first time, the transformation of TMD parton distributions from the PB framework to the CSS formalism. The evolved PB-TMDs in $b$-space are compared to the recently released, unpolarized TMD distribution ART23.

After delignification the substrate was further treated with the mixture of carbohydratases for appropriate saccharification. The enzyme treated substrate yielded maximum reducing sugar (713.33 mg/g dry substrate) after 9 h of saccharification. Monosaccharide content in the saccharified samples were quantified using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system. Using conventional yeast strain, 9.63 g/L bioethanol was produced from saccharified samples of Lantana camara. Structural changes of Lantana camara before and after enzymatic pretreatment were further investigated through Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

description: Background: Childhood immunization is considered to be among the most effective preventive services, and is one of the most important public health interventions which is cost effective to reduce both morbidity and mortality associated with infectious diseases. A satisfied mother is assumed to use the services and complies with service provider for better health care out comes. Therefore it is important to assess the enabling factors that can improve the utilization of the service among mothers since the available information in this regard is limited. Objectives: To assess maternal satisfaction toward childhood immunization and its associated factors in Kombolcha town health centers, South Wollo Amhara Region Ethiopia. Method: A facility based cross sectional study was conducted among 422 mothers from March to April 2015 in Kombolcha town. Systematic random sampling technique was used. Exit interviews, in-depth interview and checklists were tools to collect the data. The data were entered in to Epinfo and then analyzed by using SPSS v. 21. Logistic regression analyses were done to examine the relationship between satisfaction and associated factors with p-value< 0.05 statically significant. Result: In this study, 71.9% (304 of 422) of the mothers were satisfied towards immunization service provided. Mothers who have got greeting are significantly satisfied as compared with their counterparts AOR (95%CI) =3.517(1.852-6.678). Mothers who got service within short waiting time (<30min) satisfied more likely than served in long waiting time (>30min) AOR (95%CI) =12.23(6.051, 24. 71), mothers who have got vaccine information satisfied more likely than who haven't vaccine information AOR (95%CI) =12.10 (6.19, 23.71). The availability of vaccine drug was rated as 94% good, 85.4% of mothers were happy by getting their children vaccination and there was inconvenience in fixed day vaccination schedule. Conclusion: The observed level of satisfaction in this study was encouraging. Immunization process activities, accessibility and quality of care were significantly associated with maternal satisfaction Recommendation: Enhancement of service process, waiting time and quality of care are very crucial in order to maximized maternal satisfaction level. Care takers should have accurate information about side effects of vaccines and benefit of the vaccine so that sound knowledge will motivate vaccination decision

description: Selbstverantwortlichem Handeln wird heutzutage eine grosse Bedeutung zugeschrieben. Dies zeigt sich in gesellschaftlichen Entwicklungen wie einer individuellen Lebensgestaltung. Im Schulbereich kommt diese Tendenz in Form individualisierender Lernformen sowie der Förderung von Selbststeuerung und Partizipation zum Ausdruck. Heilpädagogische Interventionen zur Verhaltensoptimierung fokussieren den Aufbau von Kompetenzen der Selbstregulation. Gleichzeitig wird die Existenz eines freien Willens vor neurowissenschaftlichem Hintergrund in Frage gestellt und kontrovers diskutiert. Die Befunde des Experiments zum Willensakt von Benjamin Libet legen die Interpretation nahe, dass der Entscheid für eine Handlung im Gehirn ausgelöst wird, bevor er uns ins Bewusstsein kommt. Nimmt uns die Hirnforschung folglich den freien Willen? Welche Auswirkungen hätte dies für moralische Werte wie Verantwortung? Würden sich Konsequenzen ergeben für die (Heil-)Pädagogik? In dieser Literaturarbeit wird diesen Fragen nachgegangen. Es werden die aktuelle Debatte über Willensfreiheit vor neurowissenschaftlichem Hintergrund und in der Literatur genannte Konsequenzen für die (Heil-)Pädagogik dargestellt. Dabei zeigt sich, dass die Frage der Willensfreiheit in erster Linie eine Frage der Begriffsdeutung ist. Es sind Erklärungsmodelle möglich, in denen sich Willensfreiheit und neurowissenschaftliche Befunde nicht ausschliessen, und die für die Sinnhaftigkeit (heil-)pädagogischen Handelns sprechen. Eine einheitliche, abschliessende Antwort ist nicht gefunden

description: We revisit the classic problem of dynamically maintaining shortest paths between all pairs of nodes of a directed weighted graph. The allowed updates are insertions and deletions of nodes and their incident edges. We give worst-case guarantees on the time needed to process a single update (in contrast to related results, the update time is not amortized over a sequence of updates). Our main result is a simple randomized algorithm that for any parameter $c>1$ has a worst-case update time of $O(cn^{2+2/3} \log^{4/3}{n})$ and answers distance queries correctly with probability $1-1/n^c$, against an adaptive online adversary if the graph contains no negative cycle. The best deterministic algorithm is by Thorup [STOC 2005] with a worst-case update time of $\tilde O(n^{2+3/4})$ and assumes non-negative weights. This is the first improvement for this problem for more than a decade. Conceptually, our algorithm shows that randomization along with a more direct approach can provide better bounds.

description: Purpose – This article deals with the question: How can individual knowledge transfer of physicians be supported in hospitals? We concentrate at the individual level of knowledge transfer and distinguish between knowledge providing and knowledge obtaining as two different actions of knowledge transfer. We also empirically test influencing factors like organizational opportunities, organizational culture, and intrinsic motivation on the two knowledge transfer actions. Design/methodology/approach – We follow a sequential mixed method research approach and use qualitative and quantitative methods. In 2006, we distributed 667 questionnaires to physicians for our quantitative study and 192 usable questionnaires were returned. The distribution of age, gender, and the size of the hospitals reflects the situation in hospitals in North Rhine-Westphalia (Germany) and is representative in this respect. Findings – The results show that some organizational opportunities, organizational culture, and intrinsic motivation support physicians in providing and obtaining knowledge. Interestingly, these factors support providing and obtaining knowledge in different ways. Therefore, providing and obtaining knowledge have to be managed in different ways. Research limitations/implications – The survey only sheds light on the situation in German hospitals. To prove if our findings can be generalized, it is necessary to conduct additional research. Originality/value – The originality of this paper is that it investigates knowledge transfer at the individual level and empirically shows that physicians are motivated by different factors when they obtain and provide knowledge. Although our study is about physicians working in hospitals we think this idea is relevant also beyond this setting.

description: Observations and statistical studies have shown that giant planets are rare around M dwarfs compared with Sun-like stars. The formation mechanism of these extreme systems remains under debate for decades. With the help of the TESS mission and ground based follow-up observations, we report the discovery of TOI-4201b, the most massive and densest hot Jupiter around an M dwarf known so far with a radius of $1.22\pm 0.04\ R_J$ and a mass of $2.48\pm0.09\ M_J$, about 5 times heavier than most other giant planets around M dwarfs. It also has the highest planet-to-star mass ratio ($q\sim 4\times 10^{-3}$) among such systems. The host star is an early-M dwarf with a mass of $0.61\pm0.02\ M_{\odot}$ and a radius of $0.63\pm0.02\ R_{\odot}$. It has significant super-solar iron abundance ([Fe/H]=$0.52\pm 0.08$ dex). However, interior structure modeling suggests that its planet TOI-4201b is metal-poor, which challenges the classical core-accretion correlation of stellar-planet metallicity, unless the planet is inflated by additional energy sources. Building on the detection of this planet, we compare the stellar metallicity distribution of four planetary groups: hot/warm Jupiters around G/M dwarfs. We find that hot/warm Jupiters show a similar metallicity dependence around G-type stars. For M dwarf host stars, the occurrence of hot Jupiters shows a much stronger correlation with iron abundance, while warm Jupiters display a weaker preference, indicating possible different formation histories.

Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 1999

description: A cross-sectional study was conducted from June to October 1999 in female factory workers (FFWs) in one of the factories in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia . The objective was to study the effect of contraceptive hormones on 'HIV-1 acquisition . Purposive sampling was used for the study . All participate and age lS-45 years were included and FFWs willing to interviewed. Blood samples were taken from each respondent for HIV and syphilis test . Characteristics of the FFWs were compared between those using and not using contraceptive hormones . Chi-square were applied where ever appropriate . Identification of risk factors for HIV infection among FFWs was performed using univariate and multivariate analysis (logistic regression model) . A total of 350 FFWs were enrolled in the study . Their mean age was 37 years. Most of the study participants had primary level education(79% were less than grade 6) and married(77%) . Women who were taking hormonal contraceptive on average had a lower risk for HIV as majority are married ,in oral contraceptive users (00 . 6%) and injectable hurmune users (86 . 2%) . In multivariate analys is, variable independently associated with protecti ve effect against HIV infection were : Age group 35-39 years (OR=0 . 10, 95%CI= 0 . 02-0 . 70) and education level grade 7-12 (OR=0 . 23,95%CI= 0 . 10-0 . 95) . Variables independently associated with an increase risk o f HIV infection were : being separated (OR= 4.25, 95%CI= 1 . 56-11 . 6) and being widowed (OR=8 . 28 , 95%CI=2 . 90 - 23 . 4) with refe rence catagory married ; and having casual sex partner (OR=S . 9 , 95%CI =1 . 7-47 . 5) compared with those having no casual partner . There was no association between HIV sero-positivity and oral contraceptive and injectable contraceptive hormones use . The over all HIV prevalence was remarkably high(12%)among FFWs in A.A. Based on the results of this study strengthening interventions aimed at adolecents and youth and prospective study specially from women with long duration of hormonal contraceptive use are recommended

description: We study the interplay between the Kondo effect and (color) superconductivity in doped Dirac metals with magnetic impurities and in quark matter with colorful impurities. We first point out that the overscreened Kondo effect arises in the normal state of these systems. Next the (color) superconducting gap is incorporated as a mean field and the phase diagram for a varying gap and temperature is constructed nonperturbatively. A rich phase structure emerges from a competition of effects unique to a multichannel system. The Kondo-screened phase is shown to disappear for a sufficiently large gap. Peculiarity of quark matter due to the confining property of non-Abelian gauge fields is noted. We also investigate the spectrum of sub-gap excited states, called Shiba states. Based on a model calculation and physical reasoning we predict that, as the coupling of the impurity to the bulk is increased, there will be more than one quantum phase transition due to level crossing among overscreened states.
