description: Reports on the detection of carbonates in planetary nebulae (PNe) and protostars suggested the existence of a mechanism that produce these compounds in stellar winds and outflows. A consecutive laboratory study reported a possible mechanism by observing the non-thermodynamic equilibrium (TE), gas-phase condensation of amorphous silicate grains with amorphous calcium carbonate inclusions. It concluded that water vapor was necessary to the formation of the carbonates. We present a laboratory study with pulsed laser ablation of an MgSi target in O$_2$ and CO$_2$ gases and report, in the absence of water vapor, the non-TE, gas-phase condensation of amorphous carbonated magnesium silicate dust. It consists of amorphous silicate grains with formula MgSiO$_3$ that comprise carbonate groups homogeneously dispersed in their structure. The infrared spectra of the grains show the characteristic bands of amorphous silicates and two bands at $\sim$6.3 and $\sim$7.0 $μ$m that we assign to the carbonate groups. The silicate bands are not significantly affected at an estimated Si:C ratio of 9:1 to 9:2. Such grains could form in winds and outflows of evolved stars and PNe if C atoms are present during silicate condensation. Additionally, we find that Lyman-$α$ radiation dissociates the carbonate groups at the surface of the carbonated silicate grains and we estimate the corresponding photodissociation cross section of (0.04 $\pm$ 0.02) $\times$ 10$^{-16}$ cm$^2$. Therefore, photodissociation would limit the formation of carbonate groups on grains in winds and outflows of stars emitting VUV photons and the carbonates observed in protostars have not formed by gas-phase condensation.

Multimodal performance assessment – where next?

Publisher: name: SESAR

description: The Digital European Sky Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda endorsed an extension of scope from a flight-centric approach towards a more passenger-centric view, as reflected in the new SESAR Master Plan (2024 edition). In this poster, we summarise the planning for further collaborations between SESAR projects with multimodal content, and the transversal projects PEARL and AMPLE3. Building from the state of the art, we propose a three-level KPA development approach for extending the SESAR Performance Framework to the full multimodal context. Our three main objectives are: (i) to build an open access, digital catalogue of indicators across the three levels; (ii) to carry out a two-way gap analysis between the ‘capabilities’ in the SESAR Target Architecture and the indicator catalogue; (iii) to further review the state of the art at the European policy and strategy level to establish what indicators (and data) are necessary at Level 3 to model/monitor the corresponding goals/impacts.

(Figs 19–24)
Euconnus (Napoconnus) fulgurans Franz, 1980: 76.
Euconnus (Microconnus) fulgurans Franz; Franz, 1994: 81.
Remarks. This species, although dorsally (Fig. 19) similar to the three remaining species included in Microconnus, has the frontoclypeal groove, complete hypostomal and hypomeral ridges (Fig. 21), prominent mesocoxal projections (Fig. 22), and the metacoxae separated by the metaventral intercoxal process that lacks a pair of spines. It is, therefore, not a Microconnus, and not Napoconnus (as originally placed by Franz (1980)), but a member of the genus Euconnus. It has a ‘pseudotetramerous’ antennal club, which has three terminal antennomeres strongly enlarged, but the antennomere VIII is much smaller than IX, yet much larger than VII. The pronotum is subconical, but lacks any pits, grooves or carinae, and the basal elytral foveae are also reduced. It shows most diagnostic characters of Eu- connus (Napochus), with a few conspicuous reductions. Napochus and similar subgenera will be very likely merged with Euconnus s. str., and only then the subgeneric placement of E. fulgurans (and many similar species currently not placed in subgenera) will be clarified (Jałoszyński, in prep.).

description: In the burgeoning era of big data, selecting the optimal database solution has become a critical decision for organizations across every industry. Big data demands a powerful database solution. Traditionally, SQL Database, Database ruled, offering a structured approach familiar to many organizations. However, big data's complexity and unstructured nature challenge SQL Database's limitations. Enter NoSQL Database: flexible and scalable, making them ideal for big data's ever-changing nature. We'll explore the key differences between SQL and NoSQL Database. Performance-wise, SQL Database shines for structured queries. Its standardized language (SQL) ensures data consistency and complex analysis. But for big data's unstructured formats, this rigidity becomes a hurdle. NoSQL offers a welcome contrast. Its flexible schema allows for diverse data formats and evolving structures, perfect for undefined or frequently changing data models. Additionally, NoSQL boasts superior horizontal scalability, distributing data across multiple servers for cost-effective growth. Understanding these key differentiators empowers organizations to choose the optimal database for their big data needs.

Malar space 1.1x longer than width of mandibular base. Genal carina reaching hypostomal carina far from mandibular base, hypostomal carina lamelliform elevated.
Mesosoma with long brownish hairs. Notaulus indistinct. Mesopleuron including speculum coarsely rugose-punctate. Metapleuron with coarse longitudinal rugose-striation; juxtacoxal carina indistinct. Scutellum slightly convex, with rather dense fine punctures, without lateral carina. Hind coxa densely punctate, without scopa. Hind femur 4.0x longer than wide, densely punctate. Claws not pectinate.
Areolet almost quadrangular, frontal distance of intercubiti 1x their diameter. Nervulus postfurcal (2x its width).
Metasoma amblypygous, strongly shining. Median field of postpetiolus not hump-like raised but roundly and distinctly elevated above lateral fields on the border between petiolus and postpetiolus, with some longitudinal rugae, but shining. Lateral field with some striae. Gastrocoelus slightly impressed. Thyridium not developed. 2 nd tergite with very fine microsculpture and scattered fine punctures; 3 rd tergite with very scattered punctures. Sternites completely sclerotized. Structure otherwise as described for the genus by HEINRICH (1974: 24-25).
Colour: Black. Stripes on flagellomeres 6-11, small spot on vertex, short stripe on outer orbit and apical 2/3 of scutellum yellow. Sternites and 2 nd and 3 rd tergites reddish. Legs black; fore femur apically and frontal side of fore tibia reddish-brown. Wings yellowish, pterostigma reddish-brown.
♂ unknown.
R e m a r k: The known Palaearctic species of the genus Probolus WESMAEL are closely related and show little structural differences (HORSTMANN 2000). The new taxon differs from the European members of this genus by the structure of the flagellum and postpetiolus but is otherwise typical. In the key of HEINRICH (1974), this new species runs to P. discolor HEINRICH, but can be differentiated by the lack of lateral carina of the scutellum, shorter basal flagellomeres and black subtegular ridge.

Type genus. Kergueleniola Ruffo, 1974 b.
Diagnostic description. Body vermiform. Eyes absent. Antennae 1–2 calceoli absent. Antenna 1 longer than antenna 2; peduncular article 1 longer than article 2; peduncular articles 1–2 not geniculate; accessory flagellum present. Antenna 2 peduncular article 1 enlarged, bulbous. Mandible molar present; palp symmetrical. Maxilla 1 basal endite apically setose; palps symmetrical. Maxilla 2 basal endite without oblique setal row. Coxal gills on pereopods 2–6, stalked (with proximal restriction or complete suture) or not stalked; sternal gills absent; sternal blisters absent; oostegites fringing setae simple. Gnathopod 1 subchelate; similar in size to gnathopod 2; propodus palm without robust setae along palmar margin. Gnathopod 2 subchelate; similar in males and females (not sexually dimorphic); carpus not produced along posterior margin of propodus, projecting between merus and propodus. Pereopods 3–4 not sexually dimorphic. Pereopod 4 without posteroventral lobe. Pereopod 5 coxa with small anteroventral lobe. Pleonites 1–3 without dorsal carinae. Urosomites 1–3 free; without slender or robust dorsal setae. Urosomite 1, large distoventral robust seta [unknown]. Uropod 1 without basofacial robust setae. Uropod 3 biramous, without plumose setae; endopod subequal in length to exopod. Telson moderately cleft; dorsal or lateral robust setae absent; apical robust setae absent.
Habitat. Freshwater, epigean.
Included genera. Kergueleniolidae includes 1 genus: Kergueleniola Ruffo, 1974 b.
Remarks. Koenemann & Holsinger (1999) expelled Kergueleniola from the Bogidiellidae because it had: cleft telson without robust setae; pleopods 1–3 with subequal, 1–articulate rami; gnathopod 1 carpus without distal lobe; and mandibular palp with row of subapical setae (C-setae). They listed other character differences such as; ‘the unusually shaped palp of the maxilliped, the long, rounded epimeral plates, and the armature and shape of the mandibles and uropods’. For us the kergueleniolids form a distinct family-level taxon based on the vermiform body with discontiguous coxae, subequal rami on uropod 3 and moderately cleft telson.
Distribution. Kerguelen Island.
