description: Galaxies and their central supermassive black holes are known to coevolve, but the physical background for this is unknown as of yet. The High-$z$ Universe probed via Lensing by QSOs (HULQ) project aims to investigate this coevolution by using quasi-stellar object (QSO) host galaxies acting as gravitational lenses (QSO lenses). We present the results of the spectroscopic observation of the first QSO lens candidate from the HULQ project, HULQ J0002+0239, which consists of a QSO host galaxy at $z_{\rm d} = 1.455$ and four seemingly lensed objects in a cross-like configuration. Deep optical spectra of two of the possibly lensed objects with $z \sim 24.5$ mag were obtained with the Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph on the Gemini North Telescope. Their spectra reveal that the objects are newly discovered galaxies at $z=0.29$ and $z=1.11$, and we conclude that HULQ J0002+0239 is not a QSO lens. Our QSO lens search results are so far in agreement with the predicted number of QSO lenses, and we discuss how the future investigation of additional QSO lens candidates could tell us more about the evolution of the black hole mass and host galaxy scaling relations.

Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)

description: In this paper we introduce a new flexible class of distributions with bounded support, called reflected Generalized Topp-Leone Power Series (rGTL-PS), obtained by compounding the reflected Generalized Topp-Leone (van Drop and Kotz, 2006) and the family of Power Series distributions. The proposed class includes, as special cases, some new distributions with limited support such as the rGTL-Logarithmic, the rGTL-Geometric, the rGTL-Poisson and rGTL-Binomial. This work is an attempt to partially fill a gap regarding the presence, in the literature, of continuous distributions with bounded support, which instead appear to be very useful in many real contexts, included the reliability. Some properties of the class, including moments, hazard rate and quantile are investigated. Moreover, the maximum likelihood estimators of the parameters are examined and the observed Fisher information matrix provided. Finally, in order to show the usefulness of the new class, some applications to real data are reported.

description: In this paper, we study stellar light curves from the TESS satellite (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) for the presence of stellar flares. The main aim is to detect stellar flares using two-minutes cadence data and to perform statistical analysis. To find and analyze stellar flares we prepared automatic software WARPFINDER. We implemented three methods described in this paper: trend, difference, and profile fitting. Automated search for flares was accompanied by visual inspection. Using our software we analyzed two-minute cadence light curves of 330,000 stars located in the first 39 sectors of TESS observations. As a result, we detected over 25,000 stars showing flare activity with the total number of more than 140,000 flares. This means that about 7.7% of all the analyzed objects are flaring stars. The estimated flare energies range between $10^{31}$ and $10^{36}$ erg. We prepared a preliminary preview of the statistical distribution of parameters such as a flare duration, amplitudes and energy, and compared it with previous results. The relationship between stellar activity and its spectral type, temperature and mass was also statistically analyzed. Based on the scaling laws, we estimated the average values of the magnetic field strength and length of the flare loops. In our work, we used both single (about 60%), and double (about 40%) flare profiles to fit the observational data. The components of the double profile are supposed to be related to the direct heating of the photosphere by non-thermal electrons and back warming processes.

Nanomagnet coupled to quantum spin Hall edge: An adiabatic quantum motor

description: The precessing magnetization of a magnetic islands coupled to a quantum spin Hall edge pumps charge along the edge. Conversely, a bias voltage applied to the edge makes the magnetization precess. We point out that this device realizes an adiabatic quantum motor and discuss the efficiency of its operation based on a scattering matrix approach akin to Landauer-B"uttiker theory. Scattering theory provides a microscopic derivation of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation for the magnetization dynamics of the device, including spin-transfer torque, Gilbert damping, and Langevin torque. We find that the device can be viewed as a Thouless motor, attaining unit efficiency when the chemical potential of the edge states falls into the magnetization-induced gap. For more general parameters, we characterize the device by means of a figure of merit analogous to the ZT value in thermoelectrics.

Toward fault-tolerant parallel-in-time integration with PFASST

Subjects: subject: Distributed, Parallel, and Cluster Computing (cs.DC)

description: We introduce and analyze different strategies for the parallel-in-time integration method PFASST to recover from hard faults and subsequent data loss. Since PFASST stores solutions at multiple time steps on different processors, information from adjacent steps can be used to recover after a processor has failed. PFASST's multi-level hierarchy allows to use the coarse level for correcting the reconstructed solution, which can help to minimize overhead. A theoretical model is devised linking overhead to the number of additional PFASST iterations required for convergence after a fault. The potential efficiency of different strategies is assessed in terms of required additional iterations for examples of diffusive and advective type.
Polar caps in the presence of an induction field

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Following the early paper of Goldreich & Julian (1969), polar-cap models have usually assumed that the closed sector of a pulsar magnetosphere corotates with the neutron star. Recent work by Melrose & Yuen has been a reminder that in an oblique rotator, the induction field arising from the time-varying magnetic flux density cannot be completely screened. The principal consequence is that the plasma does not corotate with the star. Here it is shown that the physics of the polar cap is not changed at the altitudes of the radio emission source. But the presence of a plasma drift velocity in the corotating frame of reference does provide a mechanism whereby the net charge of the star can be maintained within a stable band of values. It also shows directly how electron injection and acceleration occur in the outer gap of the magnetosphere. It is consistent with radio-loud pulsars in the Fermi LAT catalogue of gamma-emitters all having positive polar-cap charge density.

description: In the era of combined antiretroviral therapy (cART), human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is now considered a chronic disease that specifically targets the brain and causes HIV-1-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND). Endocannabinoids exhibit neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties in several central nervous system (CNS) disease models, but their effects in HAND are poorly understood. To address this issue, whole-cell recordings were performed on young (14 – 21 day old) C57BL/6J mice. We investigated the actions of the synthetic cannabinoid WIN55,212-2 (1 μM) and the endocannabinoid N-arachidonoyl ethanolamine (anandamide; AEA, 1 μM) in the presence of HIV-1 Tat on GABAergic neurotransmission in mouse prefrontal cortex (PFC) slices. We found a Tat concentration dependent (5 – 50 nM) decrease in the frequency and amplitude of miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents (mIPSCs). The cannabinoid 1 receptor (CB1R) antagonist rimonabant (1 μM) and zero extracellular calcium prevented the significant Tat-induced decrease in mIPSCs. Further, bath-applied WIN55,212-2 or AEA by itself, significantly decreased the frequency, but not amplitude of mIPSCs and/or spontaneous IPSCs (sIPSCs), and occluded a further down-regulation of IPSCs by Tat. Pretreatment with rimonabant but not the CB2R antagonist AM630 (1 μM) prevented the WIN55,212-2- and AEA-induced decrease in IPSCs frequency without any further Tat effect. Results indicated a Tat-induced decrease in GABAergic neurotransmission, which was occluded by cannabinoids via a CB1R-related mechanism. Understanding the relationship between Tat toxicity and endocannabinoid signaling has the potential to identify novel therapeutic interventions to benefit individuals suffering from HAND and other cognitive impairments.
Non-standard supersymmetry breaking and Dirac gaugino masses without supersoftness

description: I consider models in which non-standard supersymmetry breaking terms, including Dirac gaugino masses, arise from F-term breaking mediated by operators with a $1/M^3$ suppression. In these models, the supersoft properties found in the case of D-term breaking are absent in general, but can be obtained as a special case that is a fixed point of the renormalization group equations. The $μ$ term is replaced by three distinct supersymmetry-breaking parameters, decoupling the Higgs scalar potential from the Higgsino masses. Both holomorphic and non-holomorphic scalar cubic interactions with minimal flavor violation are induced in the supersymmetric Standard Model Lagrangian.

Modeling the Photometric Variability of Alpha$^2$ CVn with a Dynamical Magnetosphere

description: Alpha$^2$ Canum Venaticorum (AM CVn) is a strongly magnetic star with peculiar chemical signatures and periodic variability that have been long attributed to the diffusion of magnetic elements through the photosphere, leading to chemical spots across the stellar surface. However, recent studies of other magnetic hot stars are consistent with magnetospheric clouds above the surface. Here we take a renewed approach to modeling AM CVn with a simplified dynamical magnetosphere (DM) and a tilted, offset magnetic dipole to reproduce its Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) variability. Our dipole model also reproduces well the magnetic surface map of AM CVn from Silvester, Kochukhov, & Wade (2014). Its ultraviolet variability, from IUE archival spectra, is also consistent with traditional reddening models. We further discuss the implications of a magnetosphere on other observable quantities from the system to conclude that it is unlikely to be present in AM CVn.

description: Encoded in the transient x-ray absorption (XAS) and magnetic circular (MCD) response functions resides a wealth of information of the microscopic processes of ultrafast demagnetisation. Employing state of the art first principles dynamical simulations we show that the experimentally observed energy shift of the L3 XAS peak in Ni, and the absence of a corresponding shift in the dichroic MCD response, can be explained in terms of laser induced changes in band occupation. Strikingly, we predict that for the same ultrashort pump pulse applied to Co the opposite effect will occur: a substantial shift upwards in energy of the MCD peaks will be accompanied by very small change in the position of XAS peaks, a fact we relate to the reduced $d$-band filling of Co that allows a greater energetic range above the Fermi energy into which charge can be excited. We also carefully elucidate the dependence of this effect on pump pulse parameters. These findings (i) establish a electronic origin for early time peak shifts in transient XAS and MCD spectroscopy and (ii) illustrate the rich information that may be extracted from transient response functions of the underlying dynamical system.

description: For strongly repulsive bosons in one dimension, we provide detailed modeling of the Bragg pulse used in quantum Newton's cradle-like settings or in Bragg spectroscopy experiments. By employing the Fermi-Bose mapping for a finite harmonically trapped gas and the Quench Action approach for a thermodynamic system on a ring, we reconstruct the exact post-pulse many-body time evolution of Lieb-Liniger gases in the Tonks-Girardeau limit, together with their changing local density profile and momentum distribution. Our results display a clear separation of timescales between rapid and trap-insensitive relaxation immediately after the pulse, followed by slow in-trap periodic behaviour.

description: Aim: This paper aims to evaluate a strategy for the implementation of public health policy recommendations from the World Health Organization’s (WHO) report “International Perspectives on Spinal Cord Injury” in Romania. More specifically, it seeks to: a) evaluate implementation actions with a focus on a number of people reached and status of completion at 12 months follow-up; b) describe implementation activities undertaken in the course of one year, and; c) evaluate perceived barriers and facilitators of implementation at 12 months follow-up.

Methods: A cross-sectional design was adopted with two surveys administered in 2014/15 among key implementers in Romania. The questionnaires contained open-ended, multiple choice and 5-point Likert scale questions. Results on the implementation status, implementation activities performed and self-reported barriers and facilitators were analysed and reported using descriptive statistics.

Results: Implementation completion rate was 75%, with 4390 persons directly or indirectly benefiting from the implementation-related activities listed in the final implementation plan reporting. A broad range of implementation experiences was reported. Most common activity types were delivery of services, technical trainings, implementation coordination and development meetings. Most useful tools and processes were the Romanian language version summary of the report, educational meetings, and local consensuses processes. Reported outcomes included the direct output produced, evidence of services provided, and individual or organizational level impact. Most barriers were named for the policymakers and academia as stakeholder groups and most facilitating influences for the private sector, with dependence of policymakers on constituency interest scoring highest barrier and the general availability of European Commission and European Structural Funds highest facilitator.

Conclusion: The surveys proved to be both feasible and useful tools to expand our understanding of implementation and to supplement the more standard used implementation strategies at country level.

We first derive self-consistency equations for the two- and four-point functions for products of $N$ models coupled by disorder at large $N$, generalizing the equations appearing in SYK-like models. We then study families of theories in which the disorder coupling is an exactly marginal deformation, allowing us to follow $λ_L$ from weak to strong coupling. We find interesting behaviors, including a discontinuous transition into chaos, mimicking classical KAM theory.

description: On 1 January 2015, a new long-term care reform entered into force in the Netherlands, entailing amongst others a decentralization of long-term care responsibilities from the national government to the municipalities by means of a new law: the Social Support Act 2015. Given the often disputed nature of the reform, being characterized on the one hand by severe budget cuts and on the other hand by a normative reorientation towards a participation society, this article examines to what extent municipalities in the Netherlands take (potential) moral conflicts into account in their execution of the Social Support Act 2015. In doing so, the article applies a ‘coherentist’ approach (consisting of both rights-based and consequentialist strands of ethical reasoning), thereby putting six ethical principles at the core (non-maleficence & beneficence, social beneficence, respect for autonomy, social justice, efficiency and proportionality). It is argued that while municipalities are indeed aware of (potential) moral conflicts, the nature of the new law itself leaves insufficient room for municipalities to act in a sufficiently proactive and supportive/empowering manner on these challenges.

description: We present observations of recurrent active region coronal jets and derive their thermal and non-thermal properties, by studying the physical properties of the plasma simultaneously at the base footpoint, and along the outflow of jets. The sample of analyzed solar jets were observed by SDO-AIA in Extreme Ultraviolet and by RHESSI in the X-Ray domain. The main thermal plasma physical parameters: temperature, density, energy flux contributions, etc. are calculated using multiple inversion techniques to obtain the differential emission measure from extreme-ultraviolet filtergrams. The underlying models are assessed, and their limitations and applicability are scrutinized. Complementarily, we perform source reconstruction and spectral analysis of higher energy X-Ray observations to further assess the thermal structure and identify non-thermal plasma emission properties. We discuss a peculiar penumbral magnetic reconnection site, which we previously identified as a ``Coronal Geyser''. Evidence supporting cool and hot thermal emission, and non-thermal emission, is presented for a subset of geyser jets. These active region jets are found to be energetically stronger than their polar counterparts, but we find their potential influence on heliospheric energetics and dynamics to be limited. We scrutinize whether the geyser does fit the non-thermal erupting microflare picture, finding that our observations at peak flaring times can only be explained by a combination of thermal and non-thermal emission models. This analysis of geysers provides new information and observational constraints applicable to theoretical modeling of solar jets.

description: Severe geomagnetic storms appear to be ordered by the solar cycle in a number of ways. They occur more frequently close to solar maximum and declining phase, are more common in larger solar cycles and show different patterns of occurrence in odd- and even-numbered solar cycles. Our knowledge of the most extreme space weather events, however, comes from the spikes in cosmogenic-isotope ($^{14}$C, $^{10}$Be and $^{36}$Cl) records that are attributed to significantly larger solar energetic particle (SEP) events than have been observed during the space age. Despite both storms and SEPs being driven by solar eruptive phenomena, the event-by-event correspondence between extreme storms and extreme SEPs is low. Thus it should not be assumed a priori that the solar cycle patterns found for storms also hold for SEPs and the cosmogenic-isotope events. In this study we investigate the solar cycle trends in the timing and magnitude of the 67 SEP ground-level enhancements (GLEs) recorded by neutron monitors since the mid 1950s. Using a number of models of GLE occurrence probability, we show that GLEs are around a factor four more likely around solar maximum than around solar minimum, and that they preferentially occur earlier in even-numbered solar cycles than in odd-numbered cycles. There are insufficient data to conclusively determine whether larger solar cycles produce more GLEs. Implications for putative space-weather events in the cosmogenic-isotope records are discussed. We find that GLEs tend to cluster within a few tens of days, likely due to particularly productive individual active regions, and with approximately 11-year separations, owing to the solar cycle ordering. But these timescales do not explain cosmogenic-isotope spikes which require multiple extreme SEP events over consecutive years.

Gravendeelia

description: Gravendeelia Bogarín & Karremans, gen. nov.
 Type: Pleurothallis chamaelepanthes Reichenbach (1855: 240).
 Diagnosis:— Gravendeelia is most closely related to Lepanthopsis. It can be easily distinguished from that genus by the long-prolific, pendent habit (vs. caespitose, rarely prolific, erect), the few-flowered inflorescence (vs. generally multi-flowered), the cupped flower with extremely long sepals (flowers flat, sepals and petals similar), the elongate lip with two central keels (vs. lip compact, with a basal glenion), the elongate column with a distinct foot (vs. column short, stout, footless), the incumbent anther and ventral, entire stigma (vs. apical anther and bilobed stigma). Morphologically, Gravendeelia is reminiscent of Tubella, however it can be distinguished by the pendulous plants, the hirsute ovary (vs. glabrous), the hirsute sepals (vs. glabrous), and the short column foot (vs. prominent).
 Comments:— The only species currently known to belong to this genus is relatively common in Colombia and Ecuador, and is likely to represent a species complex in need of revision (the name bears two heterotypic synonyms at this time). The recognition of the novel genus Gravendeelia is highly supported in our analyses, the accessions of its only species formed a highly supported clade (Fig. 1) (PP=1.0), sister to Lepanthopsis (Fig. 1; P.P.: 0.98), and not closely related to any of the other species previously placed in Trichosalpinx. Treating Gravendeelia as part of a broadly defined Lepanthopsis is undesirable as it would result in an undiagnosable genus, whilst when kept separate they are easily recognizable.
 Eponymy:— The name honors orchid evolutionary biologist Dr. Barbara Gravendeel, Leiden University and Naturalis Biodiversity Center, The Netherlands, who has continuously supported these phylogenetic studies in the Pleurothallidinae.

HARLEM RENAISSANCE: A CULTURAL AWAKENING OF AFRO-AMERICAN LITERATURE
Creators: name: Dr. D. R. Khanderao
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022
Subjects: Harlem Renaissance, New Negro Movement, Great Migration, American society

description: Abstract – The Harlem Renaissance is generally considered to have spanned from about 1918 until the mid-1930s. The zenith of this ‘flowering of Negro literature’, as James Weldon Johnson preferred to call the Harlem Renaissance, took place between 1924 when Opportunity: A Journal of Negro Life hosted a party for black writers where many white publishers were in attendance. Innovative young African American writers, painters, and musicians began gathering in a number of neighborhoods in Manhattan, including Harlem and Greenwich Village, working together and developing new ideas, and in the years after World War I they gained national attention. The Harlem Renaissance, also known as the New Negro Movement, was a period of great cultural activity and innovation among African American artists and writers, one that saw new artists and landmark works appear in the fields of literature, dance, art, and music. The Movement included the new African-American cultural expressions across the urban areas in the Northeast and Midwest United States affected by the African-American Great Migration, of which Harlem was the largest. The Harlem Renaissance came to an end during the Great Depression mostly because the African American community counted on wealthy white patrons to contribute to the success of their shows. The movement inspired new authors, musicians and black intellectuals during the civil rights movement. Furthermore, many believe that the movement has paved the way towards social equality in the arts and within the American society.

UNDERSTANDING THE BARRIERS AND CHALLENGING THE TRADITIONAL NORMS FOR FEMALE FREEDOM IN SOMALIA
Creators: name: Feroz, Heena
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022
Subjects: Female Genital Mutilation, Oppression, Patriarchy. Inequality. Gender stereotyping, Somalia.

description: Abstract: Somalia is a country situated in the horn of Africa. There are several reasons why studies on Somali women deserve our notice. Somali society is exorbitantly patriarchal in structure, therefore unjust in its dealings with women. A woman of Somalia is prohibited from having any involvement in the Somali society because they are considered having an inferior status than men. Somali women can neither have charge of their bodies in the matter of circumcision nor do they have any little authority over their lives. The writer, Nuruddin Farah presents a crystal clear image of Somali women. He is the one writer who does not dabble in stereotypes of African womanhood but presents women as autonomous individuals. He is described frequently as a feminist because of the emphasis in his novels which he places on the plight of African women. He highlights the distinctive part of female liberation while additionally mulling over the dialogue of change and a feeling of having a place. The present paper intends to show the oppression and inequality experienced by Somali women living in traditionally Islamic, patriarchal and nomadic society. The novel selected for the study, From a Crooked Rib analyzes the status of women and the inequality she faces because of her subordinate position in the society. The paper will throw light on the different problems which the female protagonist faces and how she seeks self-determination through her struggles to break away from her traditional society which regard women only as an object and no better than Adam’s crooked rib. The paper will also focus on revealing enough female stereotypes that suggest a definite sexist bias against women who live in the community of Camel nomads where society pressurizes women to live according to their laws.
Spin Hall and spin Nernst effects in a two-dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit interaction: temperature dependence

description: Using the Matsubara Green function formalism we calculate the temperature dependence of spin Hall and spin Nernst conductivities of a two-dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit interaction in the linear response regime. In the case of spin Nernst effect we also include the contribution from spin-resolved orbital magnetization, which assures correct behavior of the spin Nernst conductivity in the zero-temperature limit. Analytical formulas for the spin Hall and spin Nernst conductivities are derived in some specific situations. Using the Ioffe-Regel localization criterion, we have also estimated the range of parameters where the calculated results for the spin Hall and spin Nernst conductivities are applicable. Analytical results show that the vertex correction totally suppresses the spin Hall conductivity at arbitrary temperature. The spin Nernst conductivity, in turn, vanishes at $T=0$ when the orbital contribution is taken into account, but generally is nonzero at finite temperatures.

description: In this article, we refine and slightly strengthen the metric space version of the Borwein-Preiss variational principle due to Li, Shi, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 246, 308-319 (2000), clarify the assumptions and conclusions of their Theorem 1 as well as Theorem 2.5.2 in Borwein, Zhu, Techniques of Variational Analysis, Springer (2005) and streamline the proofs. Our main result, Theorem 3 is formulated in the metric space setting. When reduced to Banach spaces (Corollary 9), it extends and strengthens the smooth variational principle established in Borwein, Preiss, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 303, 517-527 (1987) along several directions.

Stellamaris

description: Stellamaris Mel.Fernández & Bogarín, gen. nov.
 Type: Pleurothallis pergrata Ames (1923: 24).
 Diagnosis:— Stellamaris is phylogenetically allied to Draconanthes, Lepanthes and Pseudolepanthes. From Pseudolepanthes it can be easily distinguished by the very short, few-flowered inflorescence (vs. elongate, multi-flowered inflorescence), the long-caudate sepals (vs. shortly acuminate, similar to the petals), the ecallose lip (vs. lip with a prominent verrucose callus), the elongate column, with a prominent column foot (vs. column short, reflexed, footless), and the pollinia with a pair of flattened caudicles, lacking a viscidium (vs. pollinia with obsolete caudicles, with viscidium). From Lepanthes, Stellamaris can be recognized by the laminated petals (vs. transversally bilobed), the un-lobed lip (vs. lip bilobed, with a basal appendix), the incumbent anther and ventral stigma (vs. anther and stigma apical), and the pollinia without visicidum (vs. pollinia with a viscidium). From Draconanthes, Stellamaris can be distinguished by the very short, few-flowered inflorescence (vs. elongate, multi-flowered inflorescence), the laminate, un-lobed, elongate lip (vs. bilobed, with a rudimentary appendix, embracing the column). Stellamaris is florally most similar to the unrelated genus Tubella, however, it can be immediately set aside by the non-prolific habit, the hirsute lepanthiform sheaths, the inflorescence shorter than the leaf bearing one or two flowers, and an extremely reduced pedicel.
 Comments:— The only species currently known to belong to this genus is variable across its distribution, from Costa Rica to Colombia, and is likely to represent more than a single species. The recognition of the novel genus Stellamaris is highly supported in our analyses, the accessions of its only species formed a highly supported clade (Fig. 1) (PP=1.0), sister to a clade including Lepanthes, Draconanthes and Pseudolepanthes (Fig. 1) (PP=1.0), which are all morphologically distinct. Even though Stellamaris, Gravendeelia and Tubella show superficially similar flowers, they are not closely related phylogenetically.
 Etymology:— Derived from the Latin stellamaris “starfish”, in allusion to the red or crimson starfish-like flowers with long-tailed sepals.
