description: Hydrogen-dominated atmospheres of hot exoplanets expand and escape due to the intense heating by the X-ray and extreme ultraviolet (XUV) irradiation of their host stars. Excess absorption of neutral hydrogen has been observed in the Ly$α$ line during transits of several close-in exoplanets, indicating such extended atmospheres. For the hot Jupiter HD 189733b, this absorption shows temporal variability. Variations in stellar XUV emission and/or stellar wind conditions have been invoked to explain this effect. We apply a 1D hydrodynamic upper atmosphere model and a 3D MHD stellar wind flow model to study the effect of variations of the stellar XUV and wind conditions on the neutral hydrogen distribution, including the production of energetic neutral atoms (ENAs), and the related Ly$α$ transit signature. We obtain comparable, albeit slightly higher Ly$α$ absorption as observed in 2011 with a stellar XUV flux of $1.8\times10^4$ erg cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$, rather typical activity conditions for this star. Flares similar to the one observed 8 h before the transit are unlikely to have caused a significant modulation of the transit signature. The resulting Ly$α$ absorption is dominated by atmospheric broadening, whereas the contribution of ENAs is negligible, as they are formed inside the bow shock from decelerated wind ions that are heated to high temperatures. Thus, within our modeling framework and assumptions, we find an insignificant dependence on the stellar wind parameters. Since the transit absorption can be modeled with typical stellar XUV and wind conditions, it is possible that the non-detection of the absorption in 2010 was affected by less typical stellar activity conditions, such as a very different magnitude and/or shape of the star's spectral XUV emission, or temporal/spatial variations in Ly$α$ affecting the determination of the transit absorption.

Variations on a conjecture of Halperin

description: Halperin has conjectured that the Serre spectral sequence of any fibration that has fibre space a certain kind of elliptic space should collapse at the E_2-term. In this paper we obtain an equivalent phrasing of this conjecture, in terms of formality relations between base and total spaces in such a fibration (Theorem 3.4). Also, we obtain results on relations between various numericalinvariants of the base, total and fibre spaces in these fibrations. Some of our results give weak versions of Halperin's conjecture (Remark 4.4 and Corollary 4.5). We go on to establish some of these weakened forms of the conjecture (Theorem 4.7). In the last section, we discuss extensions of our results and suggest some possibilities for future work.
Layered Multishift Coupling for use in Perfect Sampling Algorithms (with a primer on CFTP)

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)
subject: FOS: Mathematics
subject: 65C40

description: In this article we describe a new coupling technique which is useful in a variety of perfect sampling algorithms. A multishift coupler generates a random function f() so that for each real x, f(x)-x is governed by the same fixed probability distribution, such as a normal distribution. We develop the class of layered multishift couplers, which are simple and have several useful properties. For the standard normal distribution, for instance, the layered multishift coupler generates an f() which (surprisingly) maps an interval of length L to fewer than 2+L/2.35 points --- useful in applications which perform computations on each such image point. The layered multishift coupler improves and simplifies algorithms for generating perfectly random samples from several distributions, including the autogamma distribution, posterior distributions for Bayesian inference, and the steady state distribution for certain storage systems. We also use the layered multishift coupler to develop a Markov-chain based perfect sampling algorithm for the autonormal distribution. At the request of the organizers, we begin by giving a primer on CFTP (coupling from the past); CFTP and Fill's algorithm are the two predominant techniques for generating perfectly random samples using coupled Markov chains.

description: For Schwarzschild space-time, distributional expressions of energy-momentum densities and of scalar concomitants of the curvature tensors are examined for a class of coordinate systems which includes those of the Schwarzschild and of Kerr-Schild types as special cases. The energy-momentum density $\tilde T_μ^ν(x)$ of the gravitational source and the gravitational energy-momentum pseudo-tensor density $\tilde t_μ^ν$ have the expressions $\tilde T_μ^ν(x) =-Mc^2δ_μ^0δ_0^ν δ^{(3)}x)$ and $\tilde t_μ^ν=0$, respectively. In expressions of the curvature squares for this class of coordinate systems, there are terms like $δ^{(3)}(x)/r^3$ and $[δ^{(3)}(x)}]^2$, as well as other terms, which are singular at $x=0$. It is pointed out that the well-known expression $R^{ρσμν}({}) R_{ρσμν}({})$ $=48G^{2}M^{2}/c^{4}r^{6}$ is not correct, if we define $1/r^6 = \lim_{ε\to 0}1/(r^2+ε^2)^3$.}

description: We perform a model-independent global fit to $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ observables to confirm existing New Physics (NP) patterns (or scenarios) and to identify new ones emerging from the inclusion of the updated LHCb and Belle measurements of $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$, respectively. Our analysis, updating Refs. [1,2] and including these new data, suggests the presence of right-handed couplings encoded in the Wilson coefficients ${\cal C}_{9'μ}$ and ${\cal C}_{10'μ}$. It also strengthens our earlier observation that a lepton flavour universality violating (LFUV) left-handed lepton coupling (${\cal C}_{9μ}^{\rm V}=-{\cal C}_{10μ}^{\rm V}$), often preferred from the model building point of view, accommodates the data better if lepton-flavour universal (LFU) NP is allowed, in particular in ${\cal C}_{9}^{\rm U}$. Furthermore, this scenario with LFU NP provides a simple and model-independent connection to the $b\to cτν$ anomalies, showing a preference of $\approx 7\,σ$ with respect to the SM. It may also explain why fits to the whole set of $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ data or to the subset of LFUV data exhibit stronger preferences for different NP scenarios. Finally, motivated by $Z^\prime$ models with vector-like quarks, we propose four new scenarios with LFU and LFUV NP contributions that give a very good fit to data. We provide also an addendum collecting our updated results after including the data for the $B\to K^*μμ$ angular distribution released in 2020 by the LHCb collaboration.

description: The rapid proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies has ushered in an era of exceptional computational capabilities, driven by specialized hardware known as AI chips. These chips, designed to optimize machine learning and data processing tasks, have become the backbone of modern industries, from healthcare to autonomous systems. The need for gen AI chips, which include a variety of CPUs, GPUs, data center communications chips, memory, power chips, and more, has been a major factor in industry revenue. However, their production and operation impose significant strains on global water resources, a challenge intensified by the escalating demand for AI-driven applications.

= Tenthredo camilla Enslin, 1912b: 104. Replacement name for Allantus mocsaryi Enslin, 1910.
DISCUSSION. Allantus caucasicus was usually treated as a Tenthredo (Elinora) species. Taeger et al. (2010) listed it because of its secondary homonymy with Tenthredo caucasica Eversmann, 1847 as senior subjective synonym of Tenthredo (Elinora) ornata (André, 1881). Lacourt (1999) used Elinora caucasica as the valid name for the same taxon. Zhelochovtsev & Zinovjev (1996) recorded it as Sciapteryx, which is surely incorrect.
The identity of A. caucasicus is surprising, because the taxon was never previously associated with Macrophya Dahlbom, 1835. The species, formerly known as Macrophya prasinipes, is hitherto only recorded from Armenia and Azerbaijan. The lectotypes of A. caucasicus (Fig. 5) and M. prasinipes (Fig. 6) are surely conspecific. The differences in colour of the mesepisternum fall within the known range of variability of the species. The type series of M. prasinipes comprises three females. One paralectotype bears the same label data as the lectotype, the other one is labelled only “Araxes-Thal Kauk.”. Both paralectotypes have, unlike the lectotype, a yellow spotted scutellum. This character was not mentioned by Konow in the original description.

Comprehensive Monitoring of Tailings Dams : Navigating the Limitations and Blind Spots of Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) Technology
Creators: name: Davis, Michael
name: Linton, Nick
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is a remote sensing technology used to identify deformations of the earth over large areas. The use of this technology has become widespread in recent years to obtain information about structural performance and to help identify large-scale movements of tailings dams and other mine structures. Dam owners and consultants have started to specify Trigger Action Response Plan (TARP) thresholds based on deformations detected by InSAR. However, more recent scrutiny of InSAR technology has exposed some “blind spots” or limitations of the technology. These limitations must be understood by all who rely on InSAR technology as part of their performance monitoring programs. In addition, TARP thresholds may not be relevant to InSAR monitoring technology in the same way that they are applied to more conventional geotechnical instrumentation (e.g., piezometers, slope inclinometers). The slope aspect is a critical aspect of InSAR interpretation. InSAR deformation data is typically provided for both the vertical and east-west displacement directions. Measuring east-west deformations on a slope with a north or south facing slope aspect results in a low sensitivity to deformations. However, InSAR pixels are still used to represent movements on these slopes and can provide users with a misrepresentation of potential deformation on these slopes. Caution should be applied when setting TARP thresholds, as the TARP thresholds will depend on the interaction between the slope angle and the imaging direction. It is important that InSAR analysis is supported by ground-based deformation monitoring systems, including visual inspection and instrumentation readings. InSAR data can be used as an indicator of structural performance but should never be relied upon in isolation of other data sources. The data processing algorithms may need to be adjusted and validated multiple times before a good match is made with ground-based monitoring systems. An iterative, site-specific approach to InSAR data analysis must be utilized to assess the accuracy and value of InSAR data as part of a comprehensive monitoring program designed to effectively facilitate informed risk management decisions.

We show that there is an underlying SU(1,1) algebra in both of these models which plays a crucial role in such an identification. Further, we show that our analysis is in fact valid for any many-particle system in arbitrary dimensions whose potential term (apart from the oscillator or the Coulomb-like potential) is a homogeneous function of coordinates of degree -2. The explicit coordinate transformation which maps the Coulomb-like problem to the oscillator one has also been determined in some specific cases.

description: Although much work has been done analysing the possible causes of the New ZealandAustralian income gap, to date there has been little analysis of the extent to which this gap differs by gender and age. Using New Zealand and Australian employment and census data we examine these differences and find that (1) over the last 25 years the incomes of New Zealand women have declined less rapidly than those of New Zealand men, relative to Australian incomes; (2) this poor relative performance of New Zealand males was felt most by those in middle age; and (3) the stronger relative income growth of New Zealand females appears to be largely driven by increased public sector wage growth, and as such, its long term sustainability is questionable.
The Attitudes and Perceptions of Emirati Employers Towards Domestic Workers as Deserving Rights Holders

Work--Moral and ethical aspects

description: Prior to 2017, domestic workers were excluded from national labour legislation in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). In September of 2017, the Emirati government adopted the Domestic Workers Law of 2017. Today, there are approximately 750,000 documented domestic workers employed in the UAE, with an average of three domestic workers employed in each Emirati household. This study examines the socio-cultural and legal factors that influence the attitudes and perceptions of Emirati employers towards domestic workers as deserving rights holders. Specifically, it explores the dependency on domestic workers, the value attributed to their work, the extent to which the Domestic Workers Law of 2017 is being implemented in households, and the efficacy of the translation of the law and ‘rights-based’ language in the Emirati society. Based on interviews with Emirati employers, government officers, and employers at recruiting agencies, this thesis argues that most Emirati employers, do not view domestic workers as rights holders. The key findings reveal that: (1) there is a lack of recognition of domestic work as ‘real work’, (2) there is a lack of awareness of the Domestic Workers Law of 2017, (3) most employers hold their moral convictions at a higher ground than the law, and (4) ‘rights-based’ language is a modern phenomenon that does not yet resonate with Emirati society. Furthermore, this thesis proceeds to suggest both bottom-up and top- down recommendations to improve social awareness of domestic workers’ rights and consequently employers’ translation and implementation of the Domestic Workers Law of 2017 into their households.

description: This dissertation analyzes a set of innovative literary practices happening in the popular press in Argentina in the 1920s. It takes its departure from two theoretical premises: that what precipitated the historical avant-garde was the spread of mass culture and that art redraws its limits by incorporating the foreign into it. With these premises in mind, the dissertation shows that the aguafuertes of novelist Roberto Arlt and the women’s columns by poet Alfonsina Storni, because they were written especially for the popular press and because their authors positioned themselves as artists of and in the media, the two—Arlt and Storni—were able to process political, social, and economic changes in a forceful and unprecedented way. Technologically accelerated modernization became their vehicle, and it allowed them to contribute to the democratization of the Argentine cultural field in that decade. Further, analysis of this under-read corpus allows me to assert that it was their journalistic texts in which Arlt and Storni experimented with novel poetics, which “modernized” their own more literary practices.
      Published in discardable formats that were hardly prestigious in the center of the mass media of the day, these texts have passed largely unperceived by critics, although in their moment they formed part of a broad cultural agitation that they themselves in part created. Their marginal placement doesn’t obscure the same procedures used in them as was used by the classic avant-garde. In their newspaper writings, Arlt and Storni erased the borders between genres, re-used found materials and did not shun low materials, provoked the public and at the same time included the public, transgressed reigning norms for the behavior of women. No understanding of the 20s in the Río de la Plata can dispense with these texts, and others like them. They were an integral part of the cultural network; more than this, they worked through the extreme transformations of the epoch—as this dissertation shows—with a radicality beyond that of the local avant-gardes.

These examples answer several questions of Libgober and Yuzvinsky. As an application, we exhibit a pair of arrangements for which the resonance varieties of the Orlik-Solomon algebra are (abstractly) isomorphic, yet whose characteristic varieties are not isomorphic. The difference comes from translated components, which are not detected by the tangent cone at the origin.

description: Water is critical for agriculture, yet surprisingly few studies internationally have analysed the value placed on water in specific farming contexts. We do so using a rich longitudinal dataset for the Mackenzie District (Canterbury, New Zealand) over nineteen years, enabling us to extract the value placed by farmers on long-term access to irrigated water. New Zealand has a system of water consents under the Resource Management Act (RMA) that enables farmers with consents to extract specified quantities of water for agricultural purposes. Some water is extracted through large-scale irrigation infrastructure and other flows by more localised means; the RMA and the water consents themselves are a critical legal infrastructure underpinning farming. Using panel methods, we estimate property sale price and assessed value as a function of the size of the farm’s water right (if it has one), farm characteristics, and the water right interacted with farm characteristics to determine how the value of a water consent varies according to local conditions. We find that flatter areas and areas with poorly draining soils benefit most from irrigation, possibly because the water is retained for longer on these properties. Drier areas appear to benefit more from irrigation than do areas with higher rainfall. Farms that are situated close to towns derive especially strong benefits from irrigation since these properties are most likely to have potential waterintensive land uses such as dairying and cropping that require access to processing facilities and/or an urban labour pool.

description: We discuss a general class of boundary conditions for bosons living in an extra spatial dimension compactified on S^1/Z_2. Discontinuities for both fields and their first derivatives are allowed at the orbifold fixed points. We analyze examples with free scalar fields and interacting gauge vector bosons, deriving the mass spectrum, that depends on a combination of the twist and the jumps. We discuss how the same physical system can be characterized by different boundary conditions, related by local field redefinitions that turn a twist into a jump or vice-versa. When the description is in term of discontinuous fields, appropriate lagrangian terms should be localized at the orbifold fixed points.

description: We develop an obstruction theory for homotopy of homomorphisms f,g : M -> N between minimal differential graded algebras. We assume that M = Lambda V has an obstruction decomposition given by V = V_0 oplus V_1 and that f and g are homotopic on Lambda V_0. An obstruction is then obtained as a vector space homomorphism V_1 -> H^*(N). We investigate the relationship between the condition that f and g are homotopic and the condition that the obstruction is zero. The obstruction theory is then applied to study the set of homotopy classes [M, N]. This enables us to give a fairly complete answer to a conjecture of Copeland-Shar on the size of the homotopy set [A,B] when A and B are rational spaces. In addition, we give examples of minimal algebras (and hence of rational spaces) that have few homotopy classes of self-maps.

description: For the n-dimensional integrable system with a twisted so(p,q) reduction, Darboux transformations given by Darboux matrices of degree 2 are constructed explicitly. These Darboux transformations are applied to the local isometric immersion of space forms with flat normal bundle and linearly independent curvature normals to give the explicit expression of the position vector. Some examples are given from the trivial solutions and standard imbedding T^n\to R^{2n}.

The Awakening of the Syrian Army: General Husni al-Za'im's Coup and Reign, 1949: Origins of the Syrian Army's Enduring Role in Syrian Politics
Creators: Whitman, Elizabeth

Subjects: History

description: "30 March 2011. As I write, the Middle East is in turmoil. Beginning with Tunisia in
December 2010 and spreading to Egypt, Libya, Jordan, Yemen, Bahrain, and Syria, revolutions
in the form of popular protests and demonstrations have taken over news headlines and political
discussions. In Syria, government forces have reacted with violence and force. As of 29 March
2011, Amnesty International has estimated nearly one hundred people killed.1
 Syria is not the
only Middle Eastern country to respond to protests with force. But in a different light, Syria
certainly stands out. The spirit of protest and revolution that has swept other Arab countries took
much longer to stir Syria. Why did Syrians, living in a country notorious for gross human rights
abuses, rampant corruption, and political repression, begin protests significant enough to garner a
government response, in March, months after most other countries? Although this thesis is not
attempting to answer this question, it does seek to provide a background so that one may better
understand current events in Syria today. "

description: We study zero-temperature, stochastic Ising models sigma(t) on a d-dimensional cubic lattice with (disordered) nearest-neighbor couplings independently chosen from a distribution mu on R and an initial spin configuration chosen uniformly at random. Given d, call mu type I (resp., type F) if, for every x in the lattice, sigma(x,t) flips infinitely (resp., only finitely) many times as t goes to infinity (with probability one) --- or else mixed type M. Models of type I and M exhibit a zero-temperature version of ``local non-equilibration''. For d=1, all types occur and the type of any mu is easy to determine. The main result of this paper is a proof that for d=2, plus/minus J models (where each coupling is independently chosen to be +J with probability alpha and -J with probability 1-alpha) are type M, unlike homogeneous models (type I) or continuous (finite mean) mu's (type F). We also prove that all other noncontinuous disordered systems are type M for any d greater than or equal to 2. The plus/minus J proof is noteworthy in that it is much less ``local'' than the other (simpler) proof. Homogeneous and plus/minus J models for d greater than or equal to 3 remain an open problem.

description: Brambilla, Escobedo, Soto, and Vairo have derived an effective description of quarkonium with two parameters; a momentum diffusion term and a real self-energy term. We point out that there is a similar real self-energy term for a single open heavy flavor and that it can be expressed directly in terms of Euclidean electric field correlators along a Polyakov line. This quantity can be directly studied on the lattice without the need for analytical continuation. We show that Minkowski-space calculations of this correlator correspond with the known NLO Euclidean value of the relevant electric field two-point function and that it differs from the real self-energy term for quarkonium.

The Balance of Affordable Housing in New York City: A Spatial Analysis of the City's Assisted Affordable Housing Landscape . . .

description: This study focuses on government assisted affordable rental housing development and policy in New York City. An initial survey of currently assisted affordable housing shares in the city sought to understand the trends of government sponsored developments to determine if there was a spatial imbalance of assisted affordable housing in the city. Pursuant to this survey an analysis of rental gaps between maximum rental ceilings as a derivative of area median incomes (AMI) and the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, the most successful housing program in the expansion of assisted affordable housing units. Those found throughout the private marketplace were determined in an attempt to uncover inefficiencies in the LIHTC program that would compromise New York City's ability to achieve a spatial balance of assisted affordable housing in the future. Findings show that there is a failure in the current application of the LIHTC program in New York where negative rental gaps were found consistently throughout New York City. This fact limits the ability for the city to satisfy its affordable housing goals of both the New Housing Marketplace Plan and PlaNYC 2030 in a manner that maximizes benefits for all stakeholders. Recommendations were presented that included a revised AMI calculation method and locational targeting measures that would assist in correcting these inefficiencies.

description: В учебном пособии рассматривается мифодизайн как технология, строящаяся на концепции «использование и удовлетворение» (uses and gratifications), то есть удовлетворение потребностей потребителя в процессе использования им средств массовой коммуникации. Мифодизайн работает с современными социальными мифами, которые есть контекстуально условно-истинные и аксиологически (в плане ценностей и их норм) доверительные высказывания, и опирается на принципы социальной конвенции — утилитарно-эффективного взаимодействия, зафиксированного в культуре благодаря приемлемой социальной цене и последствиям. Вторая часть пособия носит характер социально-гуманитарной инновации. Материалы пособия представляют третью волну стереотипного, качественного, многолетнего исследования (2006, 2012, 2017) содержания сознания молодой интеллигенции 17–23 лет. Содержание пособия учитывает многолетнюю апробацию в процессе обучения студентов. Пособие предназначено как для студентов, изучающих теоретическую часть курсов, так и может использоваться студентами при подготовке к семинарам и практическим работам в рамках учебных курсов «Мифодизайн в рекламе», «Создание идентичности брендов», «Теория и практика рекламы и связей с общественностью в коммерческой сфере», «Современные технологии в рекламе», «Реклама в коммуникационном процессе», «Мифодизайн», а также при изучении курсов «Стратегические коммуникации», «Современные теории массовых коммуникаций», «Психология рекламной деятельности», «Современные рекламные технологии», «Копирайтинг», «Основы визуальной рекламы и дизайн». Материалы пособия могут быть востребованы для дипломного проектирования бакалаврами и магистрами, непосредственно в работе копирайтеров, сценаристов и режиссеров массмедиа. Подготовлено в соответствии с требованиями Федерального государственного образовательного стандарта высшего образования. Предназначено для бакалавров и магистров, обучающихся по направлениям 42.03.01, 42.04.01 «Реклама и СО», 42.03.02, 42.04.02 «Журналистика», 54.03.01, 54.04.01 «Дизайн», 42.03.05, 42.04.05 «Медиакоммуникации», 51.03.03, 51.04.03 «Социально-культурная деятельность», 43.03.02, 43.04.02 «Туризм». Так как в пособии, помимо аналитических выводов и рекомендаций, представлен массив первичных данных (субъективные образы в сознании 17–23-летних), его можно рекомендовать профессорско-преподавательскому составу, исследователям и аспирантам в таких областях, как журналистика, педагогика, социально-культурные технологии, дизайн, маркетинг, реклама и связи с общественностью.
