description: Gravitational waves from neutron star binary inspirals contain information on strongly-interacting matter in unexplored, extreme regimes. Extracting this requires robust theoretical models of the signatures of matter in the gravitational-wave signals due to spin and tidal effects. In fact, spins can have a significant impact on the tidal excitation of the quasi-normal modes of a neutron star, which is not included in current state-of-the-art waveform models. We develop a simple approximate description that accounts for the Coriolis effect of spin on the tidal excitation of the neutron star's quadrupolar and octupolar fundamental quasi-normal modes and incorporate it in the SEOBNRv4T waveform model. We show that the Coriolis effect introduces only one new interaction term in an effective action in the co-rotating frame of the star, and fix the coefficient by considering the spin-induced shift in the resonance frequencies that has been computed numerically for the mode frequencies of rotating neutron stars in the literature. We investigate the impact of relativistic corrections due to the gravitational redshift and frame-dragging effects, and identify important directions where more detailed theoretical developments are needed in the future. Comparisons of our new model to numerical relativity simulations of double neutron star and neutron star-black hole binaries show improved consistency in the agreement compared to current models used in data analysis

description: We at first introduce a novel photometric system, which consists of a Schmidt telescope, an objective prism, a CCD camera, and, especially, a multi-peak interference filter. The multi-peak interference filter enables light in multi passbands to pass through it simultaneously. The light in different passbands is differentially refracted by the objective prism and is focused on the CCD separately, so we have multi "images" for each object on the CCD frames. This system enables us to monitor blazars exactly simultaneously in multi wavebands on a single telescope, and to accurately trace the color change during the variation. We used this novel system to monitor the BL Lacertae object S5 0716+714 during 2006 January and February and achieved a very high temporal resolution. The object was very bright and very active during this period. Two strong flares were observed, with variation amplitudes of about 0.8 and 0.6 mags in the $V'$ band, respectively. Strong bluer-when-brighter correlations were found for both internight and intranight variations. No apparent time lag was observed between the $V'$- and $R'$-band variations, and the observed bluer-when-brighter chromatism may be mainly attributed to the larger variation amplitude at shorter wavelength. In addition to the bluer-when-brighter trend, the object also showed a bluer color when it was more active. The observed variability and its color behaviors are consistent with the shock-in-jet model.

description: We study a symmetric exclusion process in which the hopping rates at two chosen adjacent sites vary periodically in time and have a relative phase difference. This mimics a colloidal suspension subjected to external space and time dependent modulation of the diffusion constant. The two special sites act as a classical pump by generating an oscillatory current with a nonzero ${\cal DC}$ value whose direction depends on the applied phase difference. We analyze various features in this model through simulations and obtain an expression for the $\cal{DC}$ current via a novel perturbative treatment.

Energy Sustainability and Pope Francis’ Encyclical on Care for our Common Home: National Policies and Corporations as Change Agents
Creators: name: Arogyaswamy, Bernard
Publisher: name: Consilience
Year: 2019

description: It has been widely accepted by policy makers, corporate executives, and citizens alike that economic growth is the measure of a nation’s prosperity and well-being. The almost single-minded focus on growth, however, is achieved at high ecological and social cost, which has become a source of great concern. One of the driving forces behind unbridled growth has been the unquenchable thirst for energy worldwide. This paper investigates the challenges posed by the growth-energy nexus. While renewables are making giant strides, they account for a mere fraction of the world’s energy demand. The Papal Encyclical Laudato Si’ offers a detailed analysis of the harm humanity has inflicted on its common home, and the arguments developed in this paper are evaluated through the prism of the Encyclical. The underlying mindset preventing more sustainable ways of generating and using energy is explored, and the need to articulate human spirituality while accepting scientific consensus is emphasized. The recent international accord addressing climate change, already facing the threat of withdrawal by the United States after the recent election, can only work if the “technocratic” paradigm is radically modified. The paper provides evidence that national and local policies mirror public attitudes to tackle deteriorating environmental and social conditions. It concludes that corporations, mentioned in passing in the Encyclical, are beginning to play a central role in finding sustainable solutions, regardless of whether the international consensus holds.

description: The particle kinetic energies of pp fusion in the sun (Gamow Energy) produce small changes in the energies of pp solar neutrinos relative to those due only to exothermal energetics. Observation of this effect may be possible via the unique tools of the upcoming LENS solar neutrino detector. The temperature profile of energy production in the sun may thus be directly probed for the first time.

An Exploration of the Gender-Migration-Development Nexus: The Impact of Labor Migration on Women’s Empowerment
Creators: name: Bachan, Anna
Publisher: name: Consilience
Year: 2019

description: The feminization of labor migration is a 21st century phenomenon. Though not often center stage of migration policy and debate, migrant women have become powerful agents of change as well key actors in influencing social and economic development in their countries of origin. This paper explores the complexities of a system in which labor migration is controlled, produced, and understood; its impacts on women and the society at large; and the sustainability of such change for future generations. Through a case study on female migrant women from Senegal, this article aims to demonstrate how the migration experience and subsequent return of women to their home countries leads to positive and sustainable social and economic changes at household, community, and national levels. However, in order for this occur, it argues that governments must play a key role in supporting and protecting women prior to, during, and after their migration experience while encouraging their return home.

description: With emerging thin film PIN based optoelectronics devices, a significant research thrust is focused on the passivation of trap states for performance enhancement. Among various methods, capacitance frequency technique (CFT) is often employed to quantify trap state parameters, however, the trapped charge induced electrostatic effect on the same is not yet established for such devices. Herein, we present a theoretical methodology to incorporate such effects in the CF characteristics of well-established carrier selective perovskite-based PIN devices. We show that the electrostatic effect of trapped charges leads to non-linear energy bands in perovskite layer which results in the underestimation of trap density from existing models of CFT. Consequently, a parabolic band approximation with effective length PBAEL model is developed which accurately predicts the trap density for shallow or deep states from CFT analysis. In addition, we demonstrate that the attempt to escape frequency, crucial for trapped charge dynamics with continuum energy bands, can be well extracted by eliminating non-linear effects at reduced perovskite thickness. We believe that our work provides a unified theoretical platform for CFT to extract trap state parameters for a broad class of organic and hybrid materials-based thin film devices for energy conversion applications such as solar cells, LEDs, etc.
Magnetic interaction of jets and molecular clouds in NGC 4258

description: NGC 4258 is a well known spiral galaxy with a peculiar large scale jet flow detected in the radio and in H-alpha. Due to the special geometry of the galaxy, the jets emerge from the nuclear region through the galactic disk. Also the distribution of molecular gas looks different from that in other spiral galaxies: [12]CO(1-0)emission has only been detected in the center and along the jets and only up to distances of about 50 arcsec (1.8 kpc) from the nucleus. The reason for the CO concentration along the inner jets in NGC 4258 was not understood and is the motivation for the observations presented here. Using the IRAM interferometer, we mapped the [12]CO(1-0) emission of the central part of NGC 4258 along the nuclear jet direction in the inner 3 kpc. We detected two parallel CO ridges along a position angle of -25 degr with a total length of about 80 arcsec (2.8 kpc), separated by a CO-depleted funnel with a width of about 5 arcsec (175 pc). The H-alpha emission is more extended and broader than the CO emission with its maximum just in between the two CO ridges. In CO we see a peculiar velocity distribution in the iso-velocity map and p-v diagrams. We discuss different scenarios for an interpretation and present a model which can explain the observational results consistently. We propose here that the concentration of CO along the ridges is due to interaction of the rotating gas clouds with the jet's magnetic field by ambipolar diffusion. This magnetic interaction is thought to increase the time the molecular clouds reside near the jet thus leading to the quasi-static CO ridge.

description: Hypothetical research into how the introduction and utilization of Environmental Management Systems (EMS) could be instituted into Nigeria’s higher education scheme, as a means to improve environmental awareness and sustainable development practices on university campuses, is explored. Qualitative methodologies are utilized based on reviewed literature, semi-structured interviews, personal experiences and structured questionnaires. Reported two-year findings illustrate that effective potential EMS for Nigeria’s higher education, demands policy-oriented government directives and commitments in terms of strict regulatory legislation and coordination of related management support. While EMS implementation blockage is due to a lack of government initiative and managerial commitment accompaniment throughout Nigeria’s overall education sector. This blockage includes inadequate salary structures, lack of funding, insufficient academic curriculum and disconnect between universities and society at large. The research posits a preliminary platform towards creating EMS practices and processes, and its significant role in the definition of sustainable campuses and research via educative activities. It highlights the need for re-evaluation of Nigeria’s higher education scheme and its academic curriculum to create room for improved environmental awareness and performance.

An experimental investigation of the bifurcation in twisted square plates
Creators: name: Howell, Robert A.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The bifurcation phenomenon occurring in twisted square plates with free edges subject to contrary self-equilibrating corner loading was examined. In order to eliminate lateral deflection of the test plates due to their own weight, a special loading apparatus was constructed which held the plates in a vertical plane. The complete strain field occurring at the plate centre was measured using two strain gauge rosettes mounted on opposing sides of the plate at the centre. Principal curvatures were calculated and related to corner load for several plates with differing edge length/thickness ratios. A Southwell plot was used relating mean curvature to the ratio mean curvature/Gaussian curvature, from which the Gaussian curvature occurring at bifurcation was determined. The critical dimensionless twist ka was then calculated for each plate size. It was found that there is a linear relation between the critical dimensionless twist ka occurring at bifurcation, and the thickness to edge length ratio h/a ratio, specifically: ka = 10.8h/a.

description: The spectral properties of type Ia supernovae in the ultraviolet (UV) are investigated using the early-time spectra of SN 2001ep and SN 2001eh obtained using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). A series of spectral models is computed with a Monte Carlo spectral synthesis code, and the dependence of the UV flux on the elemental abundances and the density gradient in the outer layers of the ejecta is tested. A large fraction of the UV flux is formed by reverse fluorescence scattering of photons from red to blue wavelengths. This process, combined with ionization shifts due to enhanced line blocking, can lead to a stronger UV flux as the iron-group abundance in the outer layers is increased, contrary to previous claims.

description: As a dynamic system in which different factors affect human performance via dynamic interactions, mental workload needs a dynamic measure to monitor its factors and evidence in a complicated system, an approach that is lacking in the literature. The present study introduces a system dynamics-based model for designing feedback mechanisms related to the mental workload through literature review and content analysis of the previous studies. A human-based archetype of mental workload was detected from the data collection process. The archetype is presented at various stages, including dynamic theory, behavior over time, leverage points and model verification. The real validation of the dynamic model was confirmed in an urban train simulator. The dynamic model can be used to analyze the long-term behavior of the mental workload. Decision-makers can benefit from the developed archetypes in evaluating the dynamic impact of their decisions on accident prevention in the complicated systems.

description: It is becoming increasingly difficult for game developers to manage the cost of developing a game, while meeting the high expectations of gamers. One way to balance the increasing gamer expectation and development stress is to build an active modding community around the game. There exist several examples of games with an extremely active and successful modding community, with the Minecraft game being one of the most notable ones. This paper reports on an empirical study of 1,114 popular and 1,114 unpopular Minecraft mods from the CurseForge mod distribution platform, one of the largest distribution platforms for Minecraft mods. We analyzed the relationship between 33 features across 5 dimensions of mod characteristics and the popularity of mods (i.e., mod category, mod documentation, environmental context of the mod, remuneration for the mod, and community contribution for the mod), to understand the characteristics of popular Minecraft mods. We firstly verify that the studied dimensions have significant explanatory power in distinguishing the popularity of the studied mods. Then we evaluated the contribution of each of the 33 features across the 5 dimensions. We observed that popular mods tend to have a high quality description and promote community contribution.

description: We present a synthesis of recent photometric and kinematic data for several of the most dark-matter dominated galaxies. There is a bimodal distribution in half-light radii, with stable star clusters always being smaller than $\sim30$pc, while stable galaxies are always larger than $\sim120$pc. We extend the previously known observational relationships and interpret them in terms of a more fundamental pair of intrinsic properties of dark matter itself: dark matter forms cored mass distributions, with a core scale length of greater than about 100pc, and always has a maximum central massdensity with a narrow range. The dark matter in dSph galaxies appears to be clustered such that there is a mean volume mass density within the stellar distribution which has the very low value of about 0.1$\Msun$ pc$^{-3}$ (about 5GeV/c$^2$ cm$^{-3}$). All dSphs have velocity dispersions equivalent to circular velocities at the edge of their light distributions of $\sim 15$km s$^{-1}$. In two dSphs there is evidence that the density profile is shallow (cored) in the inner regions, and so far none of the dSphs display kinematics which require the presence of an inner cusp. The maximum central dark matter density derived is model dependent, but is likely to have a mean value (averaged over a volume of radius 10pc) of $\sim0.1\Msun$ pc$^{-3}$ (about 5GeV/c$^2$ cm$^{-3}$) for our proposed cored dark mass distributions (where it is similar to the mean value), or $\sim60\Msun$ pc$^{-3}$ (about 2TeV/c$^2$ cm$^{-3}$) if the dark matter density distribution is cusped. Galaxies are embedded in dark matter halos with these properties; smaller systems containing dark matter are not observed.

description: This photo essay illustrates a study on endeavors in a rural Japanese town with a declining population and discusses the future of rural society from a perspective of civic pride as well as sustainability. The population of the town of Gojome, located in Akita Prefecture of northern Japan, has halved from 20,025 in 1960 to 9,481 in 2015. Depopulation is often perceived as a half-empty glass, but we approached our study with the view that it is half-full. We discuss the issue through appreciative approaches by adopting the concept of “civic pride” as an alternative lens based on our empirical survey. The methodology adopted for this field survey include individual interviews with 126 respondents (consisting of 79 residents of Gojome and 47 individuals who were visiting the town) across different generations, 15 key informant interviews, drawings of their pride about the town by 34 sixth-graders of Gojome Elementary School, and observations. It was found that various generations of proud Gojome locals and non-locals have started to proactively participate in the process of bettering the town through various social, cultural, economic, and environmental activities. Based on our learning in Gojome town we conclude that, in the wake of rural depopulation, nurturing “civic pride” could potentially contribute to rural sustainability through entrusting the future of rural society to next generations.

description: After removing the double-well potential trapping two initially independent Bose condensates, the density expectation value is calculated when both the exchange symmetry of identical bosons and interatomic interaction are considered. The density expectation value and evolution equations are obtained based on both the first-quantization and second-quantization methods. When the interatomic interaction is considered carefully, after the overlapping of two initially independent condensates, it is shown that there is a nonzero interference term in the density expectation value. It is found that the calculated density expectation value with this model agrees with the interference pattern observed in the experiment by Andrews (Science 275, 637 (1997)). The nonzero interference term in the density expectation value physically arises from the exchange symmetry of identical bosons and interatomic interaction which make two initially independent condensates become coherent after the overlapping. For two initially independent condensates, our researches show that there is an interaction-induced coherence process.

description: Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) compute and communicate with asynchronous binary temporal events that can lead to significant energy savings with neuromorphic hardware. Recent algorithmic efforts on training SNNs have shown competitive performance on a variety of classification tasks. However, a visualization tool for analysing and explaining the internal spike behavior of such temporal deep SNNs has not been explored. In this paper, we propose a new concept of bio-plausible visualization for SNNs, called Spike Activation Map (SAM). The proposed SAM circumvents the non-differentiable characteristic of spiking neurons by eliminating the need for calculating gradients to obtain visual explanations. Instead, SAM calculates a temporal visualization map by forward propagating input spikes over different time-steps. SAM yields an attention map corresponding to each time-step of input data by highlighting neurons with short inter-spike interval activity. Interestingly, without both the backpropagation process and the class label, SAM highlights the discriminative region of the image while capturing fine-grained details. With SAM, for the first time, we provide a comprehensive analysis on how internal spikes work in various SNN training configurations depending on optimization types, leak behavior, as well as when faced with adversarial examples.

description: Villages that had underwent GlobeMed and MCHI water access, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) interventions tended to exhibit better sanitation and hygiene practices compared to control villages. Survey participants were directly recruited from households in eight rural villages that had previously received community-based WASH interventions in Nama sub-county, Uganda. All participants were adults (above eighteen) of varying ages and genders. The other participants were directly recruited from two rural villages who had not received any WASH intervention within Nama sub-county and served as our control groups. Participants were surveyed on various topics including water source quality and distance, prevalence of sickness, latrine management, and sanitation and hygiene practices. The effectiveness of WASH programs in GlobeMed and MCHI sponsored villages compared to control villages was measured using t-tests and Pearson Correlation Coefficients (R). Improved safe water and hygiene practices are fundamental to improving quality of life. Improved WASH related practices not only correlate with health, they ameliorate other frequently encountered inequities—like low school attendance—as education is a major factor in economic growth and alleviating poverty. Addressing WASH related problems can be challenging as they affect people from diverse communities and demographics. However, the most promising solutions arise when collaboration emerges between NGOs, governments, communities, and individuals.

In the present paper, we prove a similar quantization phenomenon for the Yamabe problem in a bounded domain $Ω$ of $R^n$.

Overall, the SDGs show little change in substantive, ideological or implementation approach from the previous Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). They are largely a reassertion of 19th and early 20th century European colonial approaches to weaker nations and cultures in violation of many of the principles established under international law for global peace, security and rights following the end of World War II. The implications of this approach, despite the claims, are that the SDGs are likely to further threaten international law objectives for protecting cultural diversity, sovereignty, sustainability and survival in a way that undermines not just international law but also global security.

A multi-epitope vaccine against the highly pathogenic SARS-CoV-2
Creators: name: Marchan, Jose
Publisher: name: F1000 Research Limited
Year: 2021

description: Immunoinformatics may aid to predict prominent immunogenic regions from critical SARS-CoV-2 proteins for their use in prophylactic interventions. This work aimed to design a vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 using an integrated in silico approach. The S glycoprotein was selected as target. The best T- and B-cell epitopes showed high viral antigenicity and suitable interactions with Human Leukocyte Antigen molecules.
 Remarkably, SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain harbour potential epitopes. The data indicate that the vaccine has an appropriate conformation and stability. An efficient binding Toll-Like Receptor 4/vaccine was observed. Interestingly, the vaccine could be used worldwide. The results also suggest that the vaccine model has a robust potential to evoke/maximize immune effector responses and immunological memory to SARS-CoV-2. Further research is needed prior to clinical trials.

Phosphorus Impacts from Meat-, Dairy-, and Plant-Based Diets
Creators: name: Schroeder, Jon
Publisher: name: Consilience
Year: 2019

description: Phosphorus (P) is a finite resource located within certain geologic reserves around the world. Morocco and the Western Sahara together account for roughly 75% of reserves, raising questions of how to more sustainably use this precious resource. Phosphorus is mined from rock and eventually converted into usable fertilizer, which is applied to croplands. This study aims to contribute to the literature on phosphorus sustainability by analyzing the yearly diet choices of an average American consumer using Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) software. When ascertaining dietary phosphorus use, meat- and plant-based diets have traditionally been juxtaposed. Using data from the United Nations and a study by a consulting firm in Boston, the LCA queries through the food materials that meat-based, dairy-based, and plant-based diets contain, and yields a rough estimate of total P consumption in kilograms. Findings show that as anticipated, a meat-based diet is higher in P consumption than a dairy-based or plant-based diet and gives credence to the notion that consumers in their everyday lives can affect the sustainable use of scarce resources such as phosphorus. Concluding this report is a brief discussion summarizing literature findings on how to use P more sustainably in other sectors, such as wastewater treatment.

Somatic embryogenesis and genetic transformation in douglas-fir
Creators: name: Jiang, Liwen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Cell division was obtained from cultured microspores of Douglas-fir on medium supplemented with auxin, cytokinin, and sucrose, but without medium salts. Embryogenic callus was initiated from excised mature and immature zygotic embryos of Douglas-fir on media supplemented with cytokinin and auxin. Precotyledonary embryos produced most of the embryogenic calli in the cultures. Secondary embryogenic callus production, and subsequent subculturing, were required for the establishment of stable embryogenic callus lines for both mature and immature zygotic embryos. Somatic embryos at the precotyledonary stage were obtained in high frequency when Douglas-fir embryogenic callus was transferred onto hormone-free medium supplemented with 1% activated charcoal, while some cotyledonary somatic embryos were obtained from hormone-free medium supplemented with low ABA levels (0-10 uM). The level of ABA in the maturation medium significantly affected the quality of the somatic embryos produced. Cell suspensions were established from embryogenic calli and have been maintained for over one year. Protoplasts were isolated from suspension, cell colonies and calli were regenerated from protoplasts. GUS and CAT genes were successfully introduced into protoplasts of Douglas-fir via electroporation, and their transient expression was obtained 2-4 days after electroporation. The results so far indicate that the production of somatic embryos via embryogenesis in vitro is obtainable, and the application of direct gene transfer via electroporation for genetic engineering of trees in this species is promising.
Exceptional Points in Atomic Spectra

description: We report the existence of exceptional points for the hydrogen atom in crossed magnetic and electric fields in numerical calculations. The resonances of the system are investigated and it is shown how exceptional points can be found by exploiting characteristic properties of the degeneracies, which are branch point singularities. A possibility for the observation of exceptional points in an experiment with atoms is proposed.

description: Based on statistical approach we described possible formation of spatially inhomogeneous distribution in the system of interacting Fermi particles by long-rage forces, and we demonstrated nonperturbative calculation of the partition function in this case. It was shown, that particles interacting with an attractive $1/r$ potential form clusters. Cluster is equilibrium structure, if we suppose that average energy of interaction of two particles is much less than their average kinetic energy $kT$. The analogy between self-gravitation gas and plasma was shown. The dynamics of cluster formation was considered with help hydrodynamical and statistical approaches, and time of relaxation to equilibrium state was found.

Rousseau e l'inganno della politica
Creators: name: CARDINALI, SANDRO
Publisher: name: Dipartimento di Scienze Umane, Università di Ferrara
Year: 2014
Subjects: Modern Philosophy; Deception; Jean-Jacques Rousseau; Social History; Moral Philosophy

description: Falsehood or imposture are key terms of Rousseau’s entire work, from the early Discours to the Contrat social, from the Confessions to the Emile. Through these terms Rousseau aims at showing the transition from nature to culture, from a primitive condition to society. In his thought, the foundation of any society, and the distinctive principle which differentiates human beings from the other animal species, is the result of an imposture, of a power abuse, namely of a complex and perverse process which produces the legitimization of inequality among mankind.

A New Deal for Refugees: How Land Restoration and Infrastructure Modernization Can Help Solve the Refugee Crisis
Creators: name: Goldman, Jonas Philip
Publisher: name: Consilience
Year: 2019

description: The migrant crisis in Europe is the largest since WWII. Millions of migrants are without hope or a source of income. However, this tragedy could present an opportunity for Europe as the EU currently faces two problems, which a large influx of labor could fix. First, decaying outdated European infrastructure and construction and secondly the abandonment of European farmland. During the 1920’s the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), a government program from the great depression, employed large numbers of unemployed men in land management fields. Just as the CCC addressed the environmental and social problems of its day, a modern government program modeled after the CCC could address the issues currently facing the EU. This paper lays out a roadmap for just such a program outlining how the EU could employ refugees to address the current environmental issues facing Europe. The paper also explores potential uses for abandoned farmland, such as re-utilization for agriculture, agroforestry and re-wilding as well as the management, funding and potential issues faced by such a program.

description: The Green-Kubo-Nakano formula should be modified in relativistic hydrodynamics because of the problem of acausality and the breaking of sum rules. In this work, we propose a formula to calculate the transport coefficients of causal hydrodynamics based on the projection operator method. As concrete examples, we derive the expressions for the diffusion coefficient, the shear viscosity coefficient, and corresponding relaxation times.
