description: We report on findings from scintillation analyses using high-cadence observations of eight canonical pulsars with observing baselines ranging from one to three years. We obtain scintillation bandwidth and timescale measurements for all pulsars in our survey, scintillation arc curvature measurements for four, and detect multiple arcs for two. We find evidence of a previously undocumented scattering screen along the line of sight (LOS) to PSR J1645$-$0317, as well as evidence that a scattering screen along the LOS to PSR J2313$+$4253 may reside somewhere within the Milky Way's Orion-Cygnus arm. We report evidence of a significant change in the scintillation pattern in PSR J2022$+$5154 from the previous two decades of literature, wherein both the scintillation bandwidth and timescale decreased by an order of magnitude relative to earlier observations at the same frequencies, potentially as a result of a different screen dominating the observed scattering. By augmenting the results of previous studies, we find general agreement with estimations of scattering delays from pulsar observations and predictions by the NE2001 electron density model but not for the newest data we have collected, providing some evidence of changes in the ISM along various LOSs over the timespans considered. In a similar manner, we find additional evidence of a correlation between a pulsar's dispersion measure and the overall variability of its scattering delays over time. The plethora of interesting science obtained through these observations demonstrates the capabilities of the Green Bank Observatory's 20m telescope to contribute to pulsar-based studies of the interstellar medium.

An Ultrametric for Cartesian Differential Categories for Taylor Series Convergence

description: Cartesian differential categories provide a categorical framework for multivariable differential calculus and also the categorical semantics of the differential $λ$-calculus. Taylor series expansion is an important concept for both differential calculus and the differential $λ$-calculus. In differential calculus, a function is equal to its Taylor series if its sequence of Taylor polynomials converges to the function in the analytic sense. On the other hand, for the differential $λ$-calculus, one works in a setting with an appropriate notion of algebraic infinite sums to formalize Taylor series expansion. In this paper, we provide a formal theory of Taylor series in an arbitrary Cartesian differential category without the need for converging limits or infinite sums. We begin by developing the notion of Taylor polynomials of maps in a Cartesian differential category and then show how comparing Taylor polynomials of maps induces an ultrapseudometric on the homsets. We say that a Cartesian differential category is Taylor if maps are entirely determined by their Taylor polynomials. The main results of this paper are that in a Taylor Cartesian differential category, the induced ultrapseudometrics are ultrametrics and that for every map $f$, its Taylor series converges to $f$ with respect to this ultrametric. This framework recaptures both Taylor series expansion in differential calculus via analytic methods and in categorical models of the differential $λ$-calculus (or Differential Linear Logic) via infinite sums.

Remarks. One Mexican specimen was compared with the holotype of S. espinozai Gauld from Costa Rica, and these specimens were found to be very similar, except the propodeum which is more or less entirely black in S. espinozai and predominantly red in Mexican specimens. Scambus espinozai probably is a junior synonym of S. albipes but we do not synonymize this species here while the Nearctic material of S. albipes is not studied.

description: Prandtl's secondary flows of the second kind generated by laterally-varying roughness are studied using the linearised Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes approach proposed in Zampino et al (2022). The momentum equations are coupled to the Spalart-Allmaras model while the roughness is captured by adapting established strategies for homogeneous roughness to heterogeneous surfaces. Linearisation of the governing equations yields a framework that enables a rapid exploration of the parameter space associated with heterogeneous surfaces, in the limiting case of small spanwise variations of the roughness properties. Channel flow is considered, with longitudinal high and low roughness strips arranged symmetrically. By varying the strip width, it is found that linear mechanisms play a dominant role in determining the size and intensity of secondary flows. In this setting, secondary flows may be interpreted as the time-averaged output response of the turbulent mean flow subjected to a steady forcing produced by the wall heterogeneity. In fact, the linear model predicts that secondary flows are most intense when the strip width is about 0.7 times the half-channel height, in excellent agreement with available data. Furthermore, a unified framework to analyse combinations of heterogeneous roughness properties and laterally-varying topographies, common in applications, is discussed. Noting that the framework assumes small spanwise variations of the surface properties, two separate secondary-flow inducing source mechanisms are identified, i.e. the lateral variation of the virtual origin from which the turbulent structure develops and the lateral variation of the streamwise velocity slip, capturing the acceleration/deceleration perceived by the bulk flow over troughs and crests of non-planar topographies.

Trisophista Meyrick, 1924: 117
Type species: Trisophista doctissima Meyrick, 1924.
Gershenson & Ulenberg (1998) sunk this genus as a synonym of Niphonympha Meyrick, 1914 on account of similarities in the male genitalia. However, Moriuti (1972) separates Yponomeutina from Niphonymphina on the basis of the maxillary palpus, which is 1-segmented in Yponomeutina and 3-segmented in Niphonymphina. The maxiallary palpus of Trisophista is 1-segmented which precludes Trisophista from Niphonymphina and so from the genus Niphonympha. In addition, Trisophista hindwing contains a hyaline patch with ridges (Agassiz, 2017) whilst Niphonympha does not. Similarities between the genitalia cited by Gersheson & Ulenberg (1998) are likely a matter of convergence. However, the distinctness of this species and its genitalia merit retention of the genus Trisophista.

description: Muisca testacea (KLUG, 1842) (Figs 2-13, 79, 97, 123, 155)
Enoplium testacea KLUG, 1842: 367. Lectotype. Gender not known. Here designated. Brazil (ZMHB). There is evidence (body size measurements) in Klug’s description that the original description of this species is based on more than one specimen. However, Klug did not specify which of the specimens before him should be the name baerer of this species. Therefore, I invoke Recommendation 73F of the ICZN (1999) and designate a lectotype and paralectotype for this nominal species. CORPORAAL 1950: 284. EKIS (now OPITZ), 1975: 56 (New Status, New Synonymy was erroneously noted after Klug’s species name).
D i a g n o s i s: Funicular antennomeres 4-6 are infuscated only in members of M. testacea and M. variabilis. At this time, only the males of these two species are separable using characteristics of the aedeagus (compare Figs 123, 124).
R e d e s c r i p t i o n: Size: Length 4.5 mm; width 1.7 mm. Form: As in Fig. 155. Color: Testaceous, except capitulum dark brown. Head: Funicular antennomeres subfiliform, progressively shorter towards capitulum, capitulum longer than combined length of funicular antennomeres, capitular antennomeres 9 and 10 triangular (Fig. 6), antennomere 11 obovate; frons wider than width of eye (EW/FW 21/30). Thorax: Pronotum (Figs 5, 79) oblong (PW/PL 70/80), side margin with well-developed tubercle, disc uniformly punctate; elytral asetiferous punctation striate to distal 2/3 rd of epipleural region, near sutural margin punctured end at about distal 1/2 (EL/EW 220/70). Abdomen: Pygidium scutiform; posterior margin of 6 th visible sternite concave; aedeagus, phallic apex as in Fig. 123.
V a r i a t i o n: Size: Length 4.5-8.0 mm; width 1.7-2.8 mm. Other than body size, the available specimens are quite homogeneous.

description: Dynamo processes are ubiquitous in astrophysical systems. In relativistic astrophysical systems, such as accretion disks around black holes or neutron stars, they may critically affect the launching of winds and jets that can power electromagnetic emission. Dynamo processes are governed by several microscopic parameters, one of them being magnetic helicity. As a conserved quantity in nonresistive plasmas, magnetic helicity is transported across the system. One important implication of helicity conservation is, that in the absence of helicity fluxes some mean-field dynamos can be quenched, potentially affecting the large-scale evolution of the magnetic field. One of the major challenges in computing magnetic helicity is the need to fix a meaningful electromagnetic gauge. We here present a fully covariant formulation of magnetic helicity transport in general-relativistic plasmas based on the concept of relative helicity by Berger & Field and Finn & Antonsen. This formulation is separately invariant under gauge-transformation of the Maxwell and Einstein equations. As an application of this new formalism we present the first analysis of magnetic helicity transport in the merger of two neutron stars. We demonstrate the presence of global helicity fluxes into the outer layers of the stellar merger remnant, which may impact subsequent large-scale dynamo amplification in these regions.

description: We revisit the duality between Kripke and algebraic semantics of intuitionistic and intuitionistic modal logic. We find that there is a certain mismatch between the two semantics, which means that not all algebraic models can be embedded into a Kripke model. This leads to an alternative proposal for a relational semantics, the stable semantics. Instead of an arbitrary partial order, the stable semantics requires a distributive lattice of worlds. We constructively show that the stable semantics is exactly as complete as the algebraic semantics. Categorifying these results leads to a 2-duality between two-dimensional stable semantics and categories of product-preserving presheaves, i.e. models of algebraic theories in the style of Lawvere.

Paraswammmerdamia disemanta (Meyrick, 1933); Gershenson & Ulenberg (1998: 86)
Type locality: Sierra Leone: Njala.
This species was transferred to Paraswammerdamia by Gershenson & Ulenberg (1998) but since it possesses the hyaline patch near the base of the hindwing that is likely not a correct placement. Whilst it may require a new genus, for the present it is restored to Yponomeuta.
Redescription of adult (Plate 5). Wingspan 14–19 mm. Head and appendages pale grey, labial palpus with segment 3 pointed at apex, segment 2 about the same length. Thorax pale grey with two large black spots, tegula plain pale grey. Forewing pale grey, a large black spot in middle of fold, a smaller one towards apex, fringe concolorous with wing. Hindwing grey, paler basally, a small hyaline patch near base. Abdomen and legs pale grey.
Male genitalia (Plate 15). Uncus almost square, socius moderate a fine pair of spines at apex; valva almost parallel sided, heavily clothed with dense hairs near base of dorsum, saccus simple about half length of valva. Aedeagus slender, almost equal in length to valva, a pair of weak cornuti.
Female genitalia (Plate 24). Lamella postvaginalis lobes pronounced, antrum sclerotised, short and skewed to the left, ductus bursae scobinate for almost all of its length, corpus bursae ovate, signum a weakly sclerotised stellate plate.
Diagnosis. A very distinct species with one spot on the fore wing.
Biology. Not known. Adults recorded in January, February, March, April, May, June.

description: Biological sensors rely on the temporal dynamics of ligand concentration for signaling. The sensory performance is bounded by the distinguishability between the sensory state transition dynamics under different environmental protocols. This work presents a comprehensive theory to characterize arbitrary transient sensory dynamics of biological sensors. Here the sensory performance is quantified by the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence between the probability distributions of the sensor's stochastic paths. We introduce a novel benchmark to assess a sensor's transient sensory performance arbitrarily far from equilibrium. We identify a counter-intuitive phenomenon in multi-state sensors: while an initial exposure to high ligand concentration may hinder a sensor's sensitivity towards a future concentration up-shift, certain sensors may show a boost in sensitivity if the initial high concentration exposure is followed by a transient resetting at a low concentration environment. The boosted performance exceeds that of a sensor starting from an initially low concentration environment. This effect, reminiscent of a drug withdrawal effect, can be explained by the Markovian dynamics of the multi-state sensor, similar to the Markovian Mpemba effect. Moreover, an exhaustive machine learning study of 4-state sensors reveals a tight connection between the sensor's performance and the structure of the Markovian graph of its states.

description: To aid in prediction of turbulent boundary layer flows over rough surfaces, a new model is proposed to estimate hydrodynamic roughness based solely on geometric surface information. The model is based on a fluid-mechanics motivated geometric parameter called the wind-shade factor. Sheltering is included using a rapid algorithm adapted from the landscape shadow literature, while local pressure drag is estimated using a piecewise potential flow approximation. Similarly to evaluating traditional surface parameters such as skewness or average slope magnitude, the wind-shade factor is purely geometric and can be evaluated efficiently from knowing the surface elevation map and the mean flow direction. The wind-shade roughness model is applied to over 100 different surfaces available in a public roughness database and some others, and the predicted sandgrain-roughness heights are compared to measured values. Effects of various model ingredients are analyzed, and transitionally rough surfaces are treated by adding a term representing the viscous stress component.
