HIMALAYA CLAUSE—EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION OF THIRD PARTIES’ LIABILITY IN INTERNATIONAL CONTRACT OF CARRIAGE AND BILL OF LADING
Creators: name: Bazghadze, Tamar
Publisher: name: Journal of Polish-Georgian Law
Year: 2021

description: Carriage of goods is one of the crucial elements of performance in international trade and/or other commercial relations. When the parties of contract on sale of goods are domiciled in different countries, one of them, in most cases, seller, is obliged to organize international carriage of goods to provide delivery of the goods to the consignee. In the circumstances of globalized economy and international unified regulations, contracts have also become unified, including standard provisions developed by different stakeholders that are involved in international trade and/or carriage of goods. However, sometimes unified clauses cannot guarantee avoidance from ambiguity and double interpretation. This article aims to review one of the unified clauses of international contract of carriage—Himalaya clause, wording and formulation of which might be important for indication of liable party in case of late shipment and/or loss/damage of cargo.

description: Within the framework of generalized factorization of higher-twist contributions, including modification to splitting functions of both quark and gluon, we get and numerically resolve the medium-modified DGLAP (mDGLAP) evolution equations. With Woods-Saxon nuclear geometry and Hirano 3D ideal hydrodynamic simulations of hot medium, we study the medium modified fragmentation functions (mFF) in DIS and Au+Au collisions in RHIC. Our calculation imply that the parton density in hot medium produced in RHIC is about 30 times larger than cold nucleon.

description: Hot subdwarf stars are faint, blue objects, and are the main contributors to the far-UV excess observed in elliptical galaxies. They offer an excellent laboratory to study close and wide binary systems, and to scrutinize their interiors through asteroseismology, as some of them undergo stellar oscillations. However, their origins are still uncertain, and increasing the number of detections is crucial to undertake statistical studies. In this work, we aim at defining a strategy to find new, uncatalogued hot subdwarfs. Making use of Virtual Observatory tools we thoroughly search stellar catalogues to retrieve multi-colour photometry and astrometric information of a known sample of blue objects, including hot subdwarfs, white dwarfs, cataclysmic variables and main sequence OB stars. We define a procedure to discriminate among these spectral classes, particularly designed to obtain a hot subdwarf sample with a low contamination factor. In order to check the validity of the method, this procedure is then applied to two test sky regions: the Kepler FoV and to a test region of around (RA:225, DEC:5) deg. As a result, we obtained 38 hot subdwarf candidates, 23 of which had already a spectral classification. We have acquired spectroscopy for three other targets, and four additional ones have an available SDSS spectrum, which we used to determine their spectral type. A temperature estimate is provided for the candidates based on their spectral energy distribution, considering two-atmospheres fit for objects with clear infrared excess. Eventually, out of 30 candidates with spectral classification, 26 objects were confirmed to be hot subdwarfs, yielding a contamination factor of only 13%. The high rate of success demonstrates the validity of the proposed strategy to find new uncatalogued hot subdwarfs. An application of this method to the entire sky will be presented in a forthcoming work.

title:  Leggenda, realtà e finzione nell’opera di Aleksej Remizov. Un’analisi di Podstrižennymi glazami

description: Questo libro ha vinto il “Premio Tesi di Dottorato 2023” istituito da Sapienza Università Editrice.

Tra i più originali scrittori russi del XX secolo, Aleksej Remizov (1887-1957) è ancora poco conosciuto in Italia, a causa delle sfide linguistiche e traduttive che la sua opera pone. Autore di una produzione copiosa e complessa, che attraversa tradizione, modernismo e avanguardia, Remizov ha avuto un ruolo cruciale nello sviluppo della letteratura russa, pur restando spesso trascurato. La sua opera, tuttavia, sta vivendo una riscoperta critica, sia in Russia, sia all’estero.
Muovendo dall’analisi della poetica pseudo-autobiografica dello scrittore, Maria Teresa Badolati offre la prima monografia dedicata a Podstrižennymi glazami (Con gli occhi rasati, 1951), uno dei testi più affascinanti e meno esplorati di Remizov. Con una lettura interdisciplinare e innovativa, l’autrice esplora la complessità narrativa, filosofica e simbolica dell’opera, mettendo in luce la sperimentale fusione tra autobiografia, mito e finzione. Centrale nell’analisi è il motivo della miopia, da cui Remizov era afflitto, simbolo di deformazione percettiva e strumento di straniamento. L’analisi è arricchita da un apparato iconografico dei luoghi moscoviti evocati nel testo.
Questo volume colma una lacuna negli studi remizoviani, contribuendo a riscoprire uno degli autori più eccentrici e visionari del Novecento russo.

description: MAIN STAGES OF THE EVOLUTION OF GEORGIAN LEGAL THOUGHT The article considers three main stages of the evolution of Georgian legal thought. Each stage of law-making is characterized by the peculiarities that were inherent in the Georgian state and law during the early, developed and late middle ages. The article indicates objective reasons for influencing foreign trends on Georgian law-making. Examining specific direct and indirect sources of law, the author of the article concludes that Georgian law and legal views are inextricably linked to advanced trends in Western European legal culture.

description: For every positive integer k we consider the class SCCk of all finite graphs whose strongly connected components have size at most k. We show that for every k, the Modal mu-Calculus fixpoint hierarchy on SCCk collapses to the level Delta2, but not to Comp(Sigma1,Pi1) (compositions of formulas of level Sigma1 and Pi1). This contrasts with the class of all graphs, where Delta2=Comp(Sigma1,Pi1).

description: Interval temporal logics (ITLs) are logics for reasoning about temporal statements expressed over intervals, i.e., periods of time. The most famous ITL studied so far is Halpern and Shoham's HS, which is the logic of the thirteen Allen's interval relations. Unfortunately, HS and most of its fragments have an undecidable satisfiability problem. This discouraged the research in this area until recently, when a number non-trivial decidable ITLs have been discovered. This paper is a contribution towards the complete classification of all different fragments of HS. We consider different combinations of the interval relations Begins, After, Later and their inverses Abar, Bbar, and Lbar. We know from previous works that the combination ABBbarAbar is decidable only when finite domains are considered (and undecidable elsewhere), and that ABBbar is decidable over the natural numbers. We extend these results by showing that decidability of ABBar can be further extended to capture the language ABBbarLbar, which lays in between ABBar and ABBbarAbar, and that turns out to be maximal w.r.t decidability over strongly discrete linear orders (e.g. finite orders, the naturals, the integers). We also prove that the proposed decision procedure is optimal with respect to the complexity class.

description: Excavations outside of the Northeast Bastion in sectors KL4/5 have revealed an extensive layer of stone rubble covering deposits dating to the first half of the 7th century B. C. Excavations in sectors D9, vw3 and the West Sanctuary also indicate a widespread disturbance in the same period. Likewise, G2/3 ware ceramic production is halted. The site may have been abandoned for a short time or had a much reduced population. In the late 7th century B. C. the residents returned and began to rebuild. At this time, East Greek, Attic, and other imported ceramics as well as new cult practices are introduced to the site, most likely a result of the establishment of colonies in the Troad.

Ausgrabungen in den Quadraten D9, vw 3 und dem westlichen Heiligtum beweisen ebenfalls weitreichende Umwälzungen zur gleichen Zeit. Gleichfalls stockte die Keramikproduktion der G2/3 Ware. Der Ort mag für kurze Zeit verlassen worden sein oder war nur dünn besiedelt. Im späten 7. Jahrhundert v. Chr. kamen die Bewohner zurück und fingen mit dem Wiederaufbau an. Zu dieser Zeit wurden ostgriechische, attische und andere Keramik und neue Kultpraktiken eingeführt, wahrscheinlich eine Folge der neu gegründeten Kolonien in der Troas.
Interface enhancement of ferroelectricity in CaTiO$_3$/BaTiO$_3$ superlattices

description: We carry out first-principles calculations for CaTiO$_3$/BaTiO$_3$ superlattices with epitaxial strain corresponding to growth on a SrTiO$_3$ substrate, and consider octahedral rotations as well as ferroelectric distortions. The calculations are done as a function of electric displacement field, and both a macroscopic and a local electrostatic analysis are carried out. We find that strong octahedral rotations occur for TiO$_6$ octahedra sandwiched between CaO layers on both sides, but are strongly suppressed if either neighboring layer is a BaO layer. Due to the resulting enhancement of the ferroelectric instability in the BaO-neighboring octahedra, we find that overall the ferroelectric instability of the superlattice is enhanced by the interface. Thus, short-period superlattices in this system have a larger ferroelectric polarization than longer-period ones of the same average composition, contrary to the expected trend.

Understanding the experiences of rural community-dwelling older adults in using a new DVD-delivered Otago Exercise Program in British Columbia
Creators: name: Agha, Arun
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: INTRODUCTION: The home-based Otago Exercise Program (OEP) has been shown to reduce the occurrence of falls in community-dwelling seniors. A new OEP DVD was recently developed to be delivered to people living in rural communities with minimal coaching by a physical therapist (PT). This thesis aimed to: 1) understand older adults’ experiences in using the DVD-delivered OEP, and 2) explore barriers and facilitators to implementing the DVD-delivered OEP from the participants’ perspectives. METHODS: Thirty-two rural community-dwelling older adults (≥75 years old) who participated in a six-month DVD-delivered OEP study were invited to participate in this qualitative study. Two small group interviews were initially conducted to explore the breadth of participants’ experiences with the program. These were followed by semi-structured individual interviews to gain an in-depth understanding of these experiences. An inductive constant comparison analysis involving coding of transcripts was performed. To ensure methodological rigour, field notes, journaling and an audit trail were maintained and peer-review took place. RESULTS: Five participants partook in group interviews and 16 in individual interviews. Three themes emerged. Theme 1, ‘The OEP DVD: Useful training tool but in need of more pep’, reflected participants’ experiences that the DVD provided important guidance at program onset, but was too slow and low-energy for longer-term use. Theme 2, ‘Providing greater control over one’s exercise regimen, but sometimes life gets in the way of staying active’, described participants’ appreciation of the program’s flexibility, but personal health concerns and everyday lives imposed challenges for adhering to the program. Theme 3, ‘Social creatures: Wanting greater human connection during exercise’, described how some participants desired further social interactions for enhancing motivation and sense of guidance. CONCLUSION: PTs prescribing the OEP should inform participants of the option to use the manual whenever they feel they have taken full advantage of the DVD and to perform the program with friends and family. The importance of exercise even when living with health problems should be raised at program onset, and methods of integrating the program with everyday activities should be promoted.

description: A blast-wave parametrization, including a full set of hadronic resonances, is used to model a small system, with total particle multiplicity comparable to the one measured in the high-multiplicity pp collisions at the LHC. Calculations are preformed for three cases: with negligible, regular and strong radial flow on the blast-wave hypersurface. We investigate the effects of flow on inclusive p_T spectra as well as on 1D and 3D femtoscopic radii for pions. Special emphasis is put on the role of pions from resonance decays. In particular we show that they magnify the flow effects present in the blast-wave stage and significantly influence the shape of the correlation functions. A specific observable, the R^E_out/R^G_side ratio is proposed as a sensitive probe of the collective effects. Model results for the high multiplicity pp collisions, for scenarios with small and large radial flow are compared.

Exploiting the Temporal Logic Hierarchy and the Non-Confluence Property for Efficient LTL Synthesis

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Logic in Computer Science (cs.LO)

description: The classic approaches to synthesize a reactive system from a linear temporal logic (LTL) specification first translate the given LTL formula to an equivalent omega-automaton and then compute a winning strategy for the corresponding omega-regular game. To this end, the obtained omega-automata have to be (pseudo)-determinized where typically a variant of Safra's determinization procedure is used. In this paper, we show that this determinization step can be significantly improved for tool implementations by replacing Safra's determinization by simpler determinization procedures. In particular, we exploit (1) the temporal logic hierarchy that corresponds to the well-known automata hierarchy consisting of safety, liveness, Buechi, and co-Buechi automata as well as their boolean closures, (2) the non-confluence property of omega-automata that result from certain translations of LTL formulas, and (3) symbolic implementations of determinization procedures for the Rabin-Scott and the Miyano-Hayashi breakpoint construction. In particular, we present convincing experimental results that demonstrate the practical applicability of our new synthesis procedure.

description: We present results on the second-faintest pulsating subdwarf B (sdB) star known, RAT J0455+1305, derived from photometric data obtained in 2009. It shows both short and long periods oscillations, theoretically assigned as pressure and gravity modes. We identify six short-period frequencies (with one being a combination) and six long-period frequencies. This star is the fourth hybrid sdB star discovered so far which makes it of special interest as each type of mode probes a different part of the star. This star is similar to the sdB hybrid pulsator Balloon 090100001 in that it exhibits short-period mode groupings, which can be used to identify pulsation parameters and constrain theoretical models.

description: The problem of solving a parity game is at the core of many problems in model checking, satisfiability checking and program synthesis. Some of the best algorithms for solving parity game are strategy improvement algorithms. These are global in nature since they require the entire parity game to be present at the beginning. This is a distinct disadvantage because in many applications one only needs to know which winning region a particular node belongs to, and a witnessing winning strategy may cover only a fractional part of the entire game graph. We present a local strategy improvement algorithm which explores the game graph on-the-fly whilst performing the improvement steps. We also compare it empirically with existing global strategy improvement algorithms and the currently only other local algorithm for solving parity games. It turns out that local strategy improvement can outperform these others by several orders of magnitude.
Community analysis and mixotrophic study of one-stage Anammox system
Creators: name: Kang, John
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: A knowledge gap exists regarding the kinetics and the microbial community of a combined partial nitritation/anaerobic ammonium oxidation (Anammox) system. In this study, a combined system was enriched for a period of 1 year in a SBR setup using synthetic reject water. The system successfully washed out the nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) population using a combination of temperature control, dissolved oxygen (DO) control and sludge wasting. The reduction in NOB population was confirmed through the reduction in the effluent nitrate concentration and fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) studies. With a 50 day sludge retention time (SRT) period, the system achieved a nitrogen removal efficiency between 80 – 90%, corresponding to a loading rate of 0.26 kg N/m³-d. FISH was conducted throughout the study to investigate the spatial analysis in floc/granular forms and the relative volumetric fractions of ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB), NOB and Anammox. The spatial analysis revealed that the AOB and the Anammox population are evenly dispersed in the granule rather than the inner/outer layer model discussed in literature. The volumetric fraction for Anammox was 33.2% ± 12.3% at 55 day SRT and 31.3% ± 10.7% at 30 day SRT. For AOB, the volumetric fraction was 36.3% ± 9.4% at 55 day SRT and 25.6 ± 7.0% at 30 day SRT. The NOB population was < 6% throughout the study. FISH could not account for the majority of the bacteria as the unaccounted fraction consisted of up to 39%. Volumetric fractions of Anammox sludge enriched in non-synthetic reject water were 26.9% ± 8.3% and 11.2% ± 3.8% for Anammox and AOB, respectively. The unaccounted fraction was higher at 55%. Mixotrophic tests were conducted using acetate, propionate and primary effluent as electron donors. Both nitrate and nitrite, as electron acceptors, caused the oxidation of the electron donors. The presence of a lag response is likely attributed to the fact that the Anammox sludge was not metabolically active to the presence of the electron donors until the onset of the batch study. Methanol inhibition studies confirmed that the oxidation of the electron donors was not due to heterotrophic activity.

description: Vortices in supersymmetric gauge field theory are important constructs in a basic conceptual phenomenon commonly referred to as the dual Meissner effect which is responsible for color confinement. Based on a direct minimization approach, we present a series of sharp existence and uniqueness theorems for the solutions of some non-Abelian vortex equations governing color-charged multiply distributed flux tubes, which provide an essential mechanism for linear confinement. Over a doubly periodic domain, existence results are obtained under explicitly stated necessary and sufficient conditions that relate the size of the domain, the vortex numbers, and the underlying physical coupling parameters of the models. Over the full plane, existence results are valid for arbitrary vortex numbers and coupling parameters. In all cases, solutions are unique.

description: We study the response of one dimensional diffusive systems, consisting of particles interacting via symmetric or asymmetric exclusion, to time-periodic driving from two reservoirs coupled to the ends. The dynamical response of the system can be characterized in terms of the structure factor. We find an interesting frequency dependent response -- the current carrying majority excitons cyclically crosses over from a short wavelength mode to a long wavelength mode with an intermediate regime of coexistence. This effect being boundary driven, decays inversely with system size. Analytic calculations show that this behavior is common to diffusive systems, both in absence and presence of correlations.

Furthermore, the monodromy of a fibered component of any such counterexample has unexpected restrictions. The simplest plausible counterexample to the Generalized Property R Conjecture could be a 2-component link containing the square knot. We characterize all two-component links that contain the square knot and which surger to (S^1 x S^2) # (S^1 x S^2). We exhibit a family of such links that are probably counterexamples to Generalized Property R. These links can be used to generate slice knots that are not known to be ribbon.

description: The following article deals with a sample of small mammals recovered from a levelling fill situated to the southwest of the Lower Sanctuary, and dated to about 550 B.C. The position of the bones within the pit and the condition of their surfaces indicate that they were probably piled up by an owl. The identified species perfectly fit into the environment, which has been reconstructed based on archaeozoological and -botanical investigations, they must have led a contented life in the man-made landscape and the grassland of Troia and its surroundings. An interesting aspect to be mentioned is the general absence of the black rat (Rattus rattus) within the sample as well as in the cultural layers of Troia up to at least the archaic period. It is likely that these animals had not yet reached the Mediterranean by that time.
description: Der vorliegende Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit einem in die archaische Phase von Troia datierten Kleinsäugerfundkomplex. Die Probe stammt aus dem Verfüllmaterial, das im Zuge von Planierungsarbeiten zwischen 550 und 500 v. Chr. südwestlich des Unteren Heiligtums eingebracht wurde. Zustand und Lage der Knochen deuten darauf hin, dass die Akkumulation von einer Eule zusammengetragen wurde. Die festgestellten Arten fügen sich gut in die bereits mit Hilfe vorangegangener archäozoologischer und -botanischer Untersuchungen rekonstruierte Umwelt, sie dürften sich auf dem Kultur- und Grasland in und rund um Troia sehr wohl gefühlt haben. Bemerkenswert ist die Abwesenheit der Hausratte (Rattus rattus) sowohl in der Probe als auch allgemein in den Kulturschichten von Troia, was darauf hinweisen könnte, dass diese Art die Mittelmeerküste zumindest bis zur archaischen Phase noch nicht erreicht hatte.

Die Funde datieren vom Chalkolithikum bis in die frühe Bronzezeit. Anhand der Spurenelementmuster konnte gezeigt werden, dass der weitaus überwiegende Anteil des Rohstoffes von der Kykladeninsel Melos stammt. Insgesamt drei Artefakte konnten mittelanatolischen Vorkommen zugewiesen werden, die bisher erst in der Frühbronzezeit repräsentiert sind. Nach dem makroskopischen Erscheinungsbild würden diese Artefakte in vier Gruppen zerfallen, von denen eine Obsidian sowohl von Melos als auch von Mittelanatolien enthält.

Based on their trace element concentrations it could be shown that the overwhelming majority of the raw material derives from the Cycladic island of Melos. Altogether three artefacts could be assigned to central Anatolian occurrences, which are represented only in the Early Bronze Age so far. According to their macroscopic appearance the artefacts would be classified into four groups, one of which comprises obsidian from Melos and from central Anatolia.

description: This work studies the following question: can plays in a Muller game be stopped after a finite number of moves and a winner be declared. A criterion to do this is sound if Player 0 wins an infinite-duration Muller game if and only if she wins the finite-duration version. A sound criterion is presented that stops a play after at most 3^n moves, where n is the size of the arena. This improves the bound (n!+1)^n obtained by McNaughton and the bound n!+1 derived from a reduction to parity games.

description: In this paper a stratigraphically-referenced database capable of precise and accurate dating of pottery assemblages from the Late Bronze Age (LBA) at Troia (Periods VI–VII) is presented. The database is constructed from information provided in the excavation reports of Carl F. Blegen, Cedric G. Boulter, John L. Caskey, and Marion Rawson (Blegen et al. 1953; 1958). The paper is focussed on quantifying the dating accuracy and precision that can be achieved with the new pottery database, when statistical seriation procedures (Correspondence Analysis) are applied.
description: In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird eine stratigraphisch-referenzierte Datenbank beschrieben, die sich zur genauen und präzisen Datierung von spätbronzeitlichen Keramikfunden in Troia (Perioden VI und VII) eignet. Die Datenbank wurde anhand von Angaben in den Grabungspublikationen von Carl F. Blegen, Cedric G. Boulter, John L. Caskey und Marion Rawson erstellt (Blegen et al. 1953; 1958). Die vorliegende Arbeit behandelt im Schwerpunkt die mit Hilfe einer Seriation (Korrespondenzanalyse) erreichbare Genauigkeit der Keramikdatierung.

description: We investigate transport in locally-gated graphene devices, where carriers are injected and collected along, rather than across, the gate edge. Tuning densities into the p-n regime significantly reduces resistance along the p-n interface, while resistance across the interface increases. This provides an experimental signature of snake states, which zig-zag along the p-n interface and remain stable as applied perpendicular magnetic field approaches zero. Snake states appear as a peak in transverse resistance measured along the p-n interface. The generic role of snake states disordered graphene is also discussed.

'Murex' Dye Production at Troia: Assessment of Archaeomalacological Data from Old and New Excavations

description: This paper presents the archaeological evidence for ‘murex’ dye production at Troia and assesses the size and character of this industry at the site, based on archaeomalacological data from old and new excavations. The amalgamated data is compared with related evidence from other Bronze Age sites in the Mediterranean basin and considered in view of the requirements of a traditional ‘murex’ dye industry. Present evidence shows that the production of purple dye at the settlement began already during the Troia VIa phase and continued until Troia VIIa. Hexaplex trunculus was the chief species used as raw material. We suggest that this major industry, indicated by the scale of accumulated crushed H. trunculus remains in the archaeological deposits, is linked to the flourishing textile industry at the site, both tied to the increasing Minoan influence in the Middle Bronze Age Aegean.
description: In diesem Beitrag werden die archäologischen Nachweise für die Herstellung von Purpurfarbe aus Murex-Schnecken sowie die Art der lokalen Purpur-Industrie anhand von archäomalakologischen Daten aus den alten und neuen Ausgrabunen in Troia vorgestellt. Diese Daten werden mit den entsprechenden Belegen aus anderen bronzezeitlichen Fundorten im Mittelmeerraum verglichen und unter dem Aspekt der Voraussetzungen einer traditionellen Purpur-Industrie betrachtet. Der gegenwärtige Forschungsstand zeigt, dass die Purpur-Produktion bereits in der Troia VIa-Phase begann und bis in die Troia VIIa-Zeit andauerte. Als Rohmaterial wurde hauptsächlich die Spezies Hexaplex trunculus verwendet. Es wird postuliert, dass diese bedeutende Industrie – ablesbar an den großen Mengen zerbrochener Schalen von H. trunculus in den archäologischen Schichten – mit der florierenden Textilindustrie vor Ort verbunden ist und beide von einem zunehmenden minoischen Einfluss während der Mittleren Bronzezeit in der Ägäis ausgelöst wurden.

description: On 7 May 1915, a German U-boat fired a torpedo into the RMS Lusitania, sinking her off the coast of Ireland. While the sinking was not a direct cause of American entry into the war, it frayed relations between the United States and Germany and initiated a public debate over how best to define and maintain U.S. neutrality.

description: Between 2014 and 2018, there were no state-organized events to mark the centenary of the First World War in Singapore. This contrasts with the state-sanctioned commemoration of the Second World War, which permeates public life in Singapore. The reasons for this contrast lie in ambivalent official attitudes towards the colonial era. In that period, the First World War was regularly commemorated. However, in post-independence Singapore, the First World War has not featured in state commemoration. In contrast, the remembrance of the Second World War fits more easily into simple nation-building narratives of common suffering on the road to nationhood.

Unitary Noise and the Mermin-GHZ Game

description: Communication complexity is an area of classical computer science which studies how much communication is necessary to solve various distributed computational problems. Quantum information processing can be used to reduce the amount of communication required to carry out some distributed problems. We speak of pseudo-telepathy when it is able to completely eliminate the need for communication. Since it is generally very hard to perfectly implement a quantum winning strategy for a pseudo-telepathy game, quantum players are almost certain to make errors even though they use a winning strategy. After introducing a model for pseudo-telepathy games, we investigate the impact of erroneously performed unitary transformations on the quantum winning strategy for the Mermin-GHZ game. The question of how strong the unitary noise can be so that quantum players would still be better than classical ones is also dealt with.

description: In wartime Austria-Hungary, propaganda’s usefulness for manipulating public opinion and upholding morale was slowly realized. Various types of official and unofficial propaganda then emerged in word, art, and moving image. But despite increasing sophistication by 1918, the success of these efforts ultimately depended on the empire’s ability to win the war and satisfy very diverse civilian aspirations.

description: We provide precise fitting formulae for Faraday conversion and rotation coefficients in uniformly magnetized relativistic plasma. The formulae are immediately applicable to Rotation Measure and Circular Polarization (CP) production in jets and hot accretion flows. We show the recipe and results for arbitrary isotropic particle distributions, in particular thermal and power-law. The exact Faraday conversion coefficient is found to approach zero with the increasing particle energy. The non-linear corrections of Faraday conversion and rotation coefficients are found essential for reliable CP inter- pretation of Sgr A*.

Properties of the Planetary Caustic Perturbation

Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Just two of 10 extrasolar planets found by microlensing have been detected by the planetary caustic despite the higher probability of planet detection relative to the central caustic which has been responsible for four extrasolar planet detections. This is because the perturbations induced by the planetary caustic are unpredictable, thus making it difficult to carry out strategic observations. However, if future high-cadence monitoring surveys are conducted, the majority of planetary caustic events including the events by free-floating planets and wide-separation planets would be detected. Hence, understanding the planetary caustic perturbations becomes important. In this paper, we investigate in detail the pattern of the planetary caustic perturbations. From this study, we find three properties of the planetary caustic perturbations. First, planetary systems with the same star-planet separation (s) basically produce perturbations of constant strength regardless of the planet/star mass ratio (q), but the duration of each perturbation scales with sqrt{q}. Second, close planetary systems with the same separation produce essentially the same negative perturbations between two triangular-shaped caustics regardless of q, but the duration of the perturbations scales with sqrt{q}. Third, the positive perturbations for planetary systems with the same mass ratio become stronger as the caustic shrinks with the increasing |log s|, while the negative perturbations become weaker. We estimate the degeneracy in the determination of q that occurs in planetary caustic events. From this, we find that the mass ratio can be more precisely determined as q increases and |log s| decreases. We also find that the degeneracy range of events for which the source star passes close to the planetary caustic is usually very narrow, and thus it would not significantly affect the determination of q.
