Were the Muslim Arab Conquerors of the Seventh-Century Middle East Colonialists?
Creators: name: Hoyland, Robert G.
Publisher: name: Comparativ
Year: 2020

description: In the course of the seventh century Muslim Arabs successfully conquered lands and peoples from Morocco to Afghanistan; they founded cities in their newly acquired territories, settled in them, ruled from them and extracted resources, both physical and human, from their hinterlands. This sounds like eminently colonialist behaviour, but there are reasons to pause and reflect on this point. There is the general problem of applying modern terms to pre-modern situations; for example, in a world where states have a clear sense of borders, it is more evident when one power trespasses upon the realm of another, but what about a world where borders are fluid and shifting or even seen as non-existent? Then there are the specific circumstances of the late antique Middle East, which was dominated by the empires of Rome and Persia, both of which aspired to supremacy. Can the Muslim Arab defeat of these states and occupation/ exploitation of their lands be characterized as colonialism? And how did the Muslim Arabs conceive of their own conquests, what were their intentions and should we factor them into our assessment of the nature of their rule? These and other questions will be considered by this paper.

description: The magnetization rotation transition occurs in the itinerant ferromagnet URhGe when the field about 12T is applied in direction perpendicular to spontaneous magnetization in the plane of the smallest magnetic anisotropy energy.The transition is accompanied by the maximum of resistivity in the normal state and by reentrance of superconductivity at lower temperatures in the field interval between 8 and 13 Tesla [F.Levy et al, Science, to be published (2005)]. We discuss the magnetization orientation transition and the modification of triplet pairing superconducting state coexisting with ferromagnetism up to the fields about 2 Tesla and then reappearing in the broad vicinity of the transition. The nonsymmorphic space group crystal symmetry of ferromagnetic URhGe allows existance of antiferromagnetic ordering of magnetic moments of pairs of uranium atoms along a-axis. We show that the amplitude of this weak antiferromagnetic ordering increases below the phase transition into superconducting state due to Cooper pairs spontaneous magnetism.

description: The Food Stamp Program saw an unprecedented decline in participation from 27.5 million participants in 1994 to 18.2 million participants in 1999. A strong economy and changes in social welfare programs drove this change. An econometric model with State-level data calculated that 35 percent of the caseload decline from 1994 to 1998 was associated with changing economic conditions and 12 percent with program reform and political variables. Household-level data from the Current Population Survey lead to the conclusion that 28 percent of the total change in participation was associated with a decrease in the number of people with low income (below 130 percent of the poverty line)and 55 percent was due to a decline in the proportion of low-income people who participate.
Elementary Heating Events - Magnetic Interactions Between Two Flux Sources. III Energy Considerations

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: The magnetic field plays a crucial role in heating the solar corona, but the exact energy release mechanism(s) is(are) still unknown. Here, we investigate in detail, the process of magnetic energy release in a situation where two initially independent flux systems are forced into each other. Work done by the foot point motions goes in to building a current sheet in which magnetic reconnection takes place. The scaling relations of the energy input and output are determined as functions of the driving velocity and the strength of fluxes in the independent flux systems. In particular, it is found that the energy injected into the system is proportional to the distance travelled not the rate of travel. Similarly, the rate of Joule dissipation is related to the distance travelled. Hence, rapidly driven foot points lead to bright, intense, but short-lived events, whilst slowly driven foot points produce weaker, but longer-lived brightenings. Integrated over the lifetime of the events both would produce the same heating if all other factors were the same. A strong overlying field has the affect of creating compact flux lobes from the sources. These appear to lead to a more rapid injection of energy, as well as a more rapid release of energy. Thus, the stronger the overlying field the more compact and more intense the heating. This means observers must know the rate of movement of the magnetic fragments involved in an events, as well as determine the strength and orientation of the surrounding field to be able to predict anything about the energy dissipated.

description: Findings of the first comprehensive government study of the Emergency Food Assistance System (EFAS) suggest that public and private food assistance may work in tandem to provide more comprehensive food assistance than either could provide by itself. Five major types of organizations (emergency kitchens, food pantries, food banks, food rescue organizations, and emergency food organizations) that operate in the EFAS were studied. About 5,300 emergency kitchens provide more than 173 million meals a year, and 32,700 food pantries distribute about 2.9 billion pounds of food a year, which translates into roughly 2,200 million meals. Despite the substantial amounts of food distributed by the system, the EFAS remains much smaller in scale than the Federal programs. The study, which was sponsored by USDA's Economic Research Service, provides detailed information about the system's operations and about each of the five types of organizations. This report summarizes the results of the study.

Of Archetypes and Special Cases: Colonization in Greek and Roman Antiquity
Creators: name: Mauersberg, Martin
Publisher: name: Comparativ
Year: 2020

description: Pre-modern forms of colonization readily come to mind when “comparing colonialism”. Among them, the colonization undertaken by the Greeks and the Romans stands out, because of a longstanding assumption about their special relationship to modern European colonization. Greek colonization and Roman colonization were not merely seen as distinct exemplars of colonization, but also as inherently “European” phenomena and therefore as forerunners of Europe’s more recent exploits overseas – a perception which imposes an anachronistic interpretative framework. Consequently, the paper calls into question these well-established modern perceptions and examines the peculiarities of Greek and Roman colonization, which consisted, above all, in the establishment of cities, which were, however, not necessarily adjacent to “Others” or aimed at political domination.

What’s in a Name? Should We Distinguish Colonialism and Imperialism?
Creators: name: Kumar, Krishan
Publisher: name: Comparativ
Year: 2020

description: Though popular and much scholarly usage does not distinguish between colonialism and imperialism, some scholars have argued for a clear analytical distinction between the two. A prominent example is the classicist Moses Finley, who especially wishes to define “colony” in terms that would distinguish it from “empire”. There are certainly some gains from attempting to do this, notably in emphasizing the distinctiveness of European “settler colonialism” from the fifteenth century onwards. But this article argues that there are also significant losses in trying to draw too hard and fast a line between colonialism and imperialism. It severely limits comparative possibilities, by excluding most of the empires of the ancient world as well as most non-Western empires, such as the Chinese Empire. There are considerabl continuities and overlaps between empires across a wide swathe of space and time; modern colonialism is a sub-species of empires in general, not a separate experience requiring special treatment. Our accounts would be the poorer if we adopt too restrictive a definition of colonialism, blinding us to the many ways in which it fits into the larger and longer story of empire.

Globalisation of Alpinism in the Twentieth Century: Publicity, Politics, and Organisational Endeavours
Creators: name: Mathieu, Jon
Publisher: name: Comparativ
Year: 2020

description: After its emergence in the late nineteenth century, the globalisation of alpinism continued throughout the twentieth century, albeit in a complex, context-dependent manner, with setbacks and different speeds at different levels. This article aims to investigate this process by way of contrastive exemplification. Two aspects of the globalisation of alpinism will be contrasted: a centre stage, constituted by memorable ascents, the object of intense public attention and interest; and a little-noticed offstage area in international organisation. The examples include the climbing of the Eiger North Face, Lenin Peak, Stalin Peak, and Mount Everest. The organisational endeavours are illustrated by the International Climbing and Mountaineering Federation. I will argue that it is mainly their relation to politics and power that makes these two strands of globalisation so different.

description: Die digitale Edition von Peter Handkes Notizbüchern startet im Februar 2021 als Kooperation des Literaturarchivs der Österreichischen Nationalbibliothek und des Deutschen Literaturarchivs Marbach unter der Leitung von Bernhard Fetz und Ulrich von Bülow. Das Editionsteam möchte die Teilnahme an der Masterclass nützen, um das Projekt zum ersten Mal öffentlich vorzustellen und einen Aufgabenbereich zu erörtern, für den wir uns von den anwesenden Expert*innen Inspirationen und Denkanstöße erhoffen: die Modellierung der poetischen Konzepte und komplexen Schreibprozesse. Handke hat seine Notizbücher als konsequente Reportage poetisch relevanter Bewusstseinseindrücke geführt; sie enthalten verschiedenartige „zweckfreie“ Einträge, poetologische Reflexionen, aber auch Notizen für konkrete Werkprojekte (Skizzen zu Figuren, Orten und Motiven oder auch zu Korrekturen), wobei einzelne Motive leicht variiert immer wieder neu Verwendung finden. Die täglichen Aufzeichnungen sind wiederum selbst Werkprojekt; sie sind Textvorlage für Handkes in Buchform erschienenen Journale, die allerdings eine teilweise stark redigierte Auswahl repräsentieren. Diesen Prozess der mehrfachen Verarbeitung von Notizen nicht nur in den Kommentaren zu erklären, sondern auch im Datenmodell so abzubilden, dass die Edition als Grundlage für zukünftige textkritische Werkeditionen dienen kann, ist eine der großen Herausforderungen dieses Projekts und sicherlich ein interessantes Diskussionsthema für die Teilnehmer*innen der Winterschool.

description: We present a spectroscopic survey of 230 white dwarf candidates within 40 pc of the Sun from the William Herschel Telescope and Gran Telescopio Canarias. All candidates were selected from $\textit{Gaia}$ Data Release 2 (DR2) and in almost all cases had no prior spectroscopic classifications. We find a total of 191 confirmed white dwarfs and 39 main-sequence star contaminants. The majority of stellar remnants in the sample are relatively cool ($\langle T_{\rm eff} \rangle$ = 6200 K), showing either hydrogen Balmer lines or a featureless spectrum, corresponding to 89 DA and 76 DC white dwarfs, respectively. We also recover two DBA white dwarfs and 9--10 magnetic remnants. We find two carbon-bearing DQ stars and 14 new metal-rich white dwarfs. This includes the possible detection of the first ultra-cool white dwarf with metal lines. We describe three DZ stars for which we find at least four different metal species, including one which is strongly Fe- and Ni-rich, indicative of the accretion of a planetesimal with core-Earth composition. We find one extremely massive (1.31 $\pm$ 0.01 M$_{\odot}$) DA white dwarf showing weak Balmer lines, possibly indicating stellar magnetism. Another white dwarf shows strong Balmer line emission but no infrared excess, suggesting a low-mass sub-stellar companion. High spectroscopic completeness ($>$99%) has now been reached for $\textit{Gaia}$ DR2 sources within 40 pc sample, in the northern hemisphere ($δ>$ 0 deg) and located on the white dwarf cooling track in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. A statistical study of the full northern sample is presented in a companion paper.

Accounting for the large radial tension in Morris-Thorne wormholes

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: It is well known that a Morris-Thorne wormhole can only be held open by violating the null energy condition, physically realizable by the use of "exotic matter." Unfortunately, even a small or moderately-sized wormhole would have a radial tension equal to that of the interior of a massive neutron star. So outside a neutron-star setting, such an outcome is problematical at best, calling for more than an appeal to exotic matter whose introduction had a completely different objective and with possibly different outcomes. The purpose of this paper is to account for the enormous radial tension in three ways: (1) directly invoking noncommutative geometry, an offshoot of string theory, (2) appealing to noncommutative geometry in conjunction with $f(R)$ modified gravity, and (3) determining the possible effect of a small extra dimension.

description: A USDA Report to Congress found that "competitive foods"-those available in schools in addition to USDA-provided school meals-have lower nutritional quality than school meals. These foods may contribute to overconsumption of food energy, dietary fat, saturated fat, added sugars, and sodium, and underconsumption of calcium, fiber, fruits and vegetables, and whole grains. Restricting the availability of less nutritious foods, taxing such foods, and improved marketing of more nutritious food choices have been proposed as policy changes, and in some cases have been tested in individual States and districts. This issue brief reviews current information on the growth and impact of competitive foods, and presents an Economic Research Service case study on competition between soft drinks and milk in particular.
Has LIGO Detected Primordial Black Hole Dark Matter? -- Tidal Disruption in Binary Black Hole Formation

description: The frequent detection of binary mergers of $\sim 30 M_{\odot}$ black holes (BHs) by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) rekindled researchers' interest in primordial BHs (PBHs) being dark matter (DM). In this work, we looked at PBHs distributed as DM with a monochromatic mass of $30 M_{\odot}$ and examined the encounter-capture scenario of binary formation, where the densest central region of DM halo dominates. Thus, we paid special attention to the tidal effect by the supermassive black hole (SMBH) present. In doing so, we discovered a necessary tool called loss zone that complements the usage of loss cone. We found that the tidal effect is not prominent in affecting binary formation, which also turned out insufficient in explaining the totality of LIGO's event rate estimation, especially due to a microlensing event constraining the DM fraction in PBH at the mass of interest from near unity to an order smaller. Meanwhile, early-universe binary formation scenario proves so prevailing that the LIGO signal in turn constrains the PBH fraction below one percent. Thus, people should put more faith in alternative PBH windows and other DM candidates.
Dynamic congestion control methods to improve performance of TCP split connections over satellite networks
Creators: name: Wu, Lijuan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Satellites play important roles in global telecommunications. However, the performance of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) for reliable data transfer over the Internet suffers significant degradation over satellite networks due to high bit error rate and the long latency of satellite links. Among the methods proposed for alleviating the impact of satellite link characteristics on TCP performance, the split TCP connection separated by performance enhancement proxies between the satellite and terrestrial Internet segments proves to be attractive for improving endto- end TCP performance while keeping the TCP configurations in end systems unchanged. In this thesis, we propose a dynamic TCP congestion control mechanism for the satellite segment in a split TCP connection scenario. This scheme uncouples the TCP congestion control and error recovery operations, which benefits error-prone channels, and allows immediate congestion feedback from underlying layer, which benefits long delay channels. We model a satellite network with two gateways, which is widely studied in the literature, and contribute a new system architecture with a single gateway, which employs a medium access control protocol for very small aperture terminals accessing a shared satellite uplink. Different from other approaches, the random early detection queue is deployed in the gateway. Based on these two models, the performance between the proposed mechanism and other ubiquitous TCP versions is compared under a number of network scenarios. Simulation results show that our proposed mechanism improves TCP performance significantly, and is more robust when the traffic load is heavy.

description: Direct product profit (DPP) is a retailing tool used to analyze product sales performance. Although the concept is over 20 years old, its widespread use in grocery stores is a fairly recent phenomena. A product's DPP is calculated as its adjusted gross margin less its direct selling costs, which normally include transportation, warehousing, and retailing or store costs. A product's DPP and sales volume classifies it in one of four categories to assist in merchandising options. Fifteen small and intermediate size grocery retailers cooperated with a study of produce DPP. Based on weekly produce sales, the stores were separated into three groups. As store group produce sales increased, produce adjusted gross margin and DPP increased. Based on produce sales volume and DPP level, various merchandising strategies are suggested.

description: Euclidean wormholes -- geometries which connect disconnected boundaries -- present a challenge to a standard quantum mechanical interpretation of the theory. One potential resolution is that the gravitational path integral computes the ensemble average of many theories. The connected topologies contribute to the simplest possible observable: the free energy, which is computed using a replica trick. This is distinct from the replica trick used to compute entanglement entropies, and appears in the computation of any extensive quantity. We argue that both JT gravity and a simplified version of CGHS admit a regime where the contribution of connected replica wormholes to the free energy is larger than that of disconnected topologies. In both theories we find evidence of replica symmetry breaking, which is reminiscent of the behavior of certain spin glasses. We discuss possible insights about ensemble averaging in gravity from this perspective.

description: Quantum neuromorphic computing physically implements neural networks in brain-inspired quantum hardware to speed up their computation. In this perspective article, we show that this emerging paradigm could make the best use of the existing and near future intermediate size quantum computers. Some approaches are based on parametrized quantum circuits, and use neural network-inspired algorithms to train them. Other approaches, closer to classical neuromorphic computing, take advantage of the physical properties of quantum oscillator assemblies to mimic neurons and compute. We discuss the different implementations of quantum neuromorphic networks with digital and analog circuits, highlight their respective advantages, and review exciting recent experimental results.

description: The work is devoted to the development of methods for correcting the input of kinematic corrections based on mechanical models and big data analysis. Two mechanical models are derived in the work, which accurately describe the dependence of acoustic waves on depth. The dependences of the physical parameters of the material on the depth are established. An approach to constructing structural maps based on remote sensing of the Earth is proposed for the task of searching for low-velocity zones. A method for analyzing soil moisture based on the results of processing satellite images is proposed. A combined data clustering algorithm is proposed, and the methods are tested.

description: Market windows were examined in five wholesale markets for Oklahoma bell peppers, broccoli, cantaloupes, cauliflower, sweet potatoes and watermelons. "Market window" refers to a period of time when the prices received by producers for selected crops are greater than the production costs. The analysis is based on price-cost comparisons in major wholesale markets. Price risk associated with price variability and yield risk was incorporated into the analysis. The Denver and New Orleans wholesale markets provide excellent market windows for all six crops. The Chicago and Dallas wholesale markets show good market potential for most of the crops.

Performance analysis of fast cell search algorithms for W-CDMA systems

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: A 3-stage fast cell search algorithm is adopted by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) committee as the method for establishing initial synchronization between a base station and a mobile station. The probability of detection analyses for stage 1 using the accumulation slot synchronization technique and stage 3 for Rayleigh fading channels have been previously studied. In this thesis, the probability of detection for stage 1 using the most frequent occurrence method is analyzed and the results are compared with the accumulation technique. It is found that the accumulation scheme outperforms the most frequent occurrence scheme. The stage 2 probability of detection is also analyzed. All three stages are then analyzed in Ricean fading. As expected, it is observed that the probability of detection for all three stages in Ricean fading is better than that under Rayleigh fading channel. A theoretical model for the mean cell search time is also introduced. The results show that the mean cell search time increases more rapidly for the independent fading channel than for the block fading channel as the channel condition degrades. The performance of the fast cell search algorithm was also studied using simulation. The simulation results were obtained based on SPW™ 3GPP model. Simulation results for a vehicular speed of 3 km/h were found to closely match the theoretical results assuming block fading. Results obtained assuming independent fading were found to be significantly different from simulation results for high vehicular speeds, e.g. 120 km/h. This is primarily due to the fact that even at this speed, the fading for consecutive slots are quite correlated.

description: A theoretical study on the dynamics of an antiferromagnetic (AFM) skyrmion is indispensable for revealing the underlying physics and understanding the numerical and experimental observations. In this work, we present a reliable theoretical treatment of the spin current induced motion of an AFM skyrmion in the absence and presence of pinning defect. For an ideal AFM system free of defect, the skyrmion motion velocity as a function of the intrinsic parameters can be derived, based on the concept that the skyrmion profile agrees well with the 360 domain wall formula, leading to an explicit description of the skyrmion dynamics. However, for an AFM lattice containing a defect, the skyrmion can be pinned and the depinning field as a function of damping constant and pinning strength can be described by the Thiele approach. It is revealed that the depinning behavior can be remarkably influenced by the time dependent oscillation of the skyrmion trajectory. The present theory provides a comprehensive scenario for manipulating the dynamics of AFM skyrmion, informative for future spintronic applications based on antiferromagnets.

description: Non-linear parametric resonances occur frequently in nature. Here we summarize how they can be studied by means of perturbative methods. We show in particular how resonances can affect the motion of a test particle orbiting in the vicinity of a compact object. These mathematical toy-models find application in explaining the structure of the observed kHz Quasi-Periodic Oscillations: we discuss which aspects of the reality naturally enter in the theory, and which one still remain a puzzle.

description: High Wind Events are a common occurrence in the Great Lakes region of the United States from the late Fall through early Spring. Specifically, this study focuses on non-convective high winds brought in on westerly cold air advection by strong extratropical cyclones tracking across the region. High wind events frequently cause widespread infrastructure and property damage, with monetary values ranging from thousands to millions of dollars, along with several fatalities as documented within the Storm Events Database (National Centers for Environmental Information). This study expands upon a previous local high wind study completed by Niziol and Paone (2000) with new information and findings in several areas. In addition to using a more recent dataset of 2004-2014 cold-season events, the new study partitioned these events into three new categories to cover the full range of hazardous wind scenarios: Widespread, Limited and Advisory-only wind events. The need for the study came about through analysis of performance statistics for many of these more recent events. This study also expanded the coverage area beyond Buffalo, NY to the entire National Weather Service (NWS) Buffalo County Warning Area (CWA) along with developing new North American Regional Reanalysis (NARR) model composites of 500 hPa heights, Mean Sea Level Pressure (MSLP) and 850 hPa wind speed for each wind event category. Several high wind parameters were compared to identify distinct predictors of these categories with two standing out above the rest. The first being the strength of a surface low tracking northwest of Buffalo, NY which was also identified as a key requirement for a high wind event in the previous study and the second being strength of a strong and persistent 850 hPa jet tracking across the NWS Buffalo CWA. MSLP and 850 hPa wind data from these 2004-2014 cases were used to develop a set of High Wind Potential Impact Tables. The NARR composites and potential impact tables were created to both improve forecaster pattern recognition and increase forecaster confidence for impact extent of high wind events which should lead to improved performance statistics.

description: This study evaluates the economic feasibility of establishing a packing house for the New Jersey Tomato Council Cooperative Association. Several scenarios were evaluated using a comprehensive firm-level, dynamic, stochastic, multiple-year, capital-budgeting computer model. Results indicate that the packing house would have difficulty sustaining itself if it packed tomatoes only during the three months a year that local tomatoes are produced. Economic performance of the packing house improved, however, when additional tomatoes were repacked from another supplier during the months that tomatoes are not produced in New Jersey.

description: Im Juni 2019 und Juni 2020 wurden gemäß § 6 Infektionsschutzgesetz (IfSG) jeweils ein Fall von offener Lungentuber¬kulose beim Betreuungspersonal in Kindertagesstätten an die zuständigen Gesundheitsbehörden gemeldet. Entsprechende Infektionsschutzmaßnahmen und Umgebungsuntersuchungen wurden eingeleitet. In einem der Fälle konnten durch die frühzeitige Diagnose der Lun¬gentuberkulose beim Indexfall und wirksame Infektionsschutzmaßnahmen weitere Folgeinfektionen unterbunden werden. Der zweite Fall schildert ein umfassendes Infektionsgeschehen, mit Exposition zahlreicher Kon¬taktpersonen gegenüber einem vermutlich über ei¬nen längeren Zeitraum infektiösen Indexfall. Wie das Epidemiologische Bulletin 11/2021 ausführt, zeigen diese Erfahrungen die Bedeutung ei¬ner frühzeitigen Tuberkulose-Diagnostik bei Ver¬dachtsfällen und der konsequenten Umsetzung von Infektionsschutz- und Präventionsmaßnahmen in besonders vulnerablen Bereichen.

We show theoretically the existence of stationary solutions of the unforced case, that are characterized by an infinite average energy per particle. Moreover, we verify the quasi-stationarity of these states by performing numerical simulations with a finite number of particles, thereby highlighting truncated Lévy distributions for the velocities.

description: Solar cells manufactured on top of Ge substrates suffer from inherent drawbacks that hinder or limit their potential. The most deleterious ones are heavy weight, high bulk recombination, lack of photon confinement and an increase of the heat absorption. The use of thinned Ge substrates is herein proposed as a possible solution to the aforementioned challenges. The potential of a thinned Ge subcell inside a standard GaInP/Ga(In)As/Ge triple-junction solar cell is assessed by simulations, pointing to an optimum thickness around 5-10 μm. This would reduce the weight by more than 90 %, whereas the available current for the Ge subcell would decrease only by 5 %. In addition, the heat absorption for wavelengths beyond 1600 nm would decrease by more than 85 %. The performance of such a device is highly influenced by the front and back surface recombination of the p-n junction. Simulations remark that good back surface passivation is mandatory to avoid losing power generation by thinning the substrate. In contrast, it has been found that front surface recombination lowers the power generation in a similar manner for thin and thick solar cells. Therefore, the benefits of thinning the substrate are not limited by the front surface recombination. Finally, Ge single-junction solar cells thinned down to 85 μm by wet etching processes are demonstrated. The feasibility of the thinning process is supported by the limited losses measured in the current generation (less than 6 %) and generated voltage (4 %) for the thinnest solar cell manufactured.
