description: In this paper we present the two-level homogenization of the flow in a deformable double-porous structure described at two characteristic scales. The higher level porosity associated with the mesoscopic structure is constituted by channels in a matrix made of a microporous material consisting of elastic skeleton and pores saturated by a viscous fluid. The macroscopic model is derived by the homogenization of the flow in the heterogeneous structure characterized by two small parameters involved in the two-level asymptotic analysis, whereby a scaling ansatz is adopted to respect the pore size differences. The first level upscaling of the fluid-structure interaction problem yields a Biot continuum describing the mesoscopic matrix coupled with the Stokes flow in the channels. The second step of the homogenization leads to a macroscopic model involving three equations for displacements, the mesoscopic flow velocity and the micropore pressure. Due to interactions between the two porosities, the macroscopic flow is governed by a Darcy-Brinkman model comprising two equations which are coupled with the overall equilibrium equation respecting the hierarchical structure of the two-phase medium. Expressions of the effective macroscopic parameters of the homogenized double-porosity continuum are derived, depending on the characteristic responses of the mesoscopic structure. Some symmetry and reciprocity relationships are shown and issues of boundary conditions are discussed. The model has been implemented in the finite element code SfePy which is well-suited for computational homogenization. A numerical example of solving a nonstationary problem using mixed finite element method is included.

 Lectotypus (designated by SCHROEDER, 1926: 135; second step designated here): PANAMA: Cerro de Garagara, Sambu Basin, S. Darien, 500-974 m, 2.II.1912, Pittier 5670 (G-DC [G00321968]!; isolecto-: US [US00104928]!).
 Notes. – As for the many new species described in key format by C. de Candolle [see CANDOLLE (1923) for an example], no type was designated. SCHROEDER (1926: 135) designated Pittier 5670 from Panama as type collection but with no indication of a herbarium where the specimen was stored. A second-step lectotypifiaction is therefore necessary. Both duplicates located in G-DC and in US were seen by C. de Candolle. The G-DC is designated here as the lectotype because it is the most complete collection.

We demonstrate that the observed behavior of the AB period signals the crossover from a low B regime which can be understood in terms of electrons following classical orbits to an inherently quantum high B regime where this classical picture and semiclassical theories based on it do not apply.

Drifting of the line-tied footpoints of CME flux-ropes
Creators: name: Aulanier, Guillaume
name: Dudik, Jaroslav
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Existing 3D extensions to the standard model show that flux-rope footpoints are surrounded by curved-shaped QSL-footprints that can be related with hook-shaped flare-ribbons. We build upon this finding and further address the joint questions of their time-evolution, and of the formation of flare loops at the ends of flaring PILs of the erupting bipole, which are both relevant for flare understanding in general and for ICME studies in particular. We calculate QSLs and relevant field lines in an MHD simulation of a torus-unstable flux-rope. The evolving QSL footprints are used to define the outer edge of the flux rope at different times, and to identify and characterize new 3D reconnection geometries and sequences that occur above the ends of the flaring PIL. We also analyse flare-ribbons as observed in EUV by SDO/AIA and IRIS during two X-class flares. The flux-rope footpoints are drifting during the eruption, which is unexpected due to line-tying. This drifting is due to a series of coronal reconnections that erode the flux rope on one side and enlarge it on the other side. Other changes in the flux-rope footpoint-area are due to multiple reconnections of individual field lines whose topology can evolve sequentially from arcade to flux rope and finally to flare loop. These are associated with deformations and displacements of QSL footprints, which resemble those of the studied flare ribbons. Our model predicts continuous deformations and a drifting of ICME flux-rope footpoints whose areas are surrounded by equally-evolving hooked-shaped flare-ribbons, as well as the formation of flare loops at the ends of flaring PILs which originate from the flux-rope itself, both of which being due to purely three-dimensional reconnection geometries. The observed evolution of flare-ribbons in two events supports the model, but more observations are required to test all its predictions.

description: We revisit the scale evolution of the quark and gluon spin contributions to the proton spin, $\frac{1}{2}ΔΣ$ and $ΔG$, using the three-loop results for the spin-dependent evolution kernels available in the literature. We argue that the evolution of the quark spin contribution may actually be extended to four-loop order, and that to all orders a single anomalous dimension governs the evolution of both $ΔΣ$ and $ΔG$. We present analytical solutions of the evolution equations for $ΔΣ$ and $ΔG$ and investigate their scale dependence both to large and down to lower "hadronic" scales. We find that the solutions remain perturbatively stable even to low scales, where they come closer to simple quark model expectations. We discuss a curious scenario for the proton spin, in which even the gluon spin contribution is essentially scale independent and has a finite asymptotic value as the scale becomes large. We finally also show that perturbative three-loop evolution leads to a larger spin contribution of strange anti-quarks than of strange quarks.

description: According to the general theory of relativity, kinetic energy contributes to gravitational mass. Surprisingly, the observational evidence for this prediction does not seem to be discussed in the literature. I reanalyze existing experimental data to test the equivalence principle for the kinetic energy of atomic electrons, and show that fairly strong limits on possible violations can be obtained. I discuss the relationship of this result to the occasional claim that ``light falls with twice the acceleration of ordinary matter.''

description: Macroautophagy/autophagy is a natural intracellular process that maintains cellular homeostasis and protects cells from death under stress conditions. Autophagy sustains tumor survival and growth when induced by common cancer treatments, including IR and cytotoxic chemotherapy, thereby contributing to therapeutic resistance of tumors. In this study, we report that the expression of MIR93, noted in two clinically relevant tumor subtypes of GBM, influenced GSC phenotype as well as tumor response to therapy through its effects on autophagy. Our mechanistic studies revealed that MIR93 regulated autophagic activities in GSCs through simultaneous inhibition of multiple autophagy regulators, including BECN1/Beclin 1, ATG5, ATG4B, and SQSTM1/p62. Moreover, two first-line treatments for GBM, IR and temozolomide (TMZ), as well as rapamycin (Rap), the prototypic MTOR inhibitor, decreased MIR93 expression that, in turn, stimulated autophagic processes in GSCs. Inhibition of autophagy by ectopic MIR93 expression, or via autophagy inhibitors NSC (an ATG4B inhibitor) and CQ, enhanced the activity of IR and TMZ against GSCs. Collectively, our findings reveal a key role for MIR93 in the regulation of autophagy and suggest a combination treatment strategy involving the inhibition of autophagy while administering cytotoxic therapy.

description: We go on towards the proof of concept of Millennium Theorem proposed by Stephen Cook, we state that polynomial classes and its successors like non-polynomial (NP) are equal along the function equilibrium which is justified by the parallel processinglaw, we will also give the exact algorithm to Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) which is computed in the polynomial complexity time of the product of linear and logarithmic operands, the linear algorithm for the maximum flow problem is also given. In this short paper we give the notion of the equivalence of the complexity classes due to the recent research according to Rabin-Scott subset construction. We will also give a notion to the famous “X+Y Problem” which can be solved efficiently in quadratic polynomial time on the dual deterministic Turing machine, for which the general definition is also given.

description: Multi-soliton pulses are potential candidates for fiber optical transmission where the information is modulated and recovered in the so-called nonlinear Fourier domain. While this is an elegant technique to account for the channel nonlinearity, the obtained spectral efficiency, so far, is not competitive with classic Nyquist-based schemes. This is especially due to the observation that soliton pulses generally exhibit a large time-bandwidth product. We consider the phase modulation of spectral amplitudes of higher order solitons, taking into account their varying spectral and temporal behavior when propagating along the fiber. For second and third order solitons, we numerically optimize the pulse shapes to minimize the time-bandwidth product. We study the behavior of multi-soliton pulse duration and bandwidth and generally observe two corner cases where we approximate them analytically. We use these results to give an estimate on the minimal achievable time-bandwidth product per eigenvalue.

description: The aim of this paper is to understand the factors influencing business tourism on a global scale, in order to assess the competence of the countries in this tourism segment and prescribe them guidelines for action. For the development of data analysis, a growth rate model was estimated and a sample of 136 countries for the years 2005 and 2009 was collected. Results reveal that, for the development of policies to stimulate the growth in the business tourism segment, countries should develop measures that encourage capital investment in tourism, leisure tourism and trade openness. Economic agents should also focus their investments in equipment that creates value throughout the tourism supply chain, in particular, in transport and equipment for entertainment and culture.

We demonstrate that this is a tracker solution and that it could have driven the Universe into its current inflationary stage. The exact solutions and the description for a complete evolution of the Universe are also given. We compare such model with the current cosmological observations.

description: As Moore's law comes to an end, neuromorphic approaches to computing are on the rise. One of these, passive photonic reservoir computing, is a strong candidate for computing at high bitrates (> 10 Gbps) and with low energy consumption. Currently though, both benefits are limited by the necessity to perform training and readout operations in the electrical domain. Thus, efforts are currently underway in the photonic community to design an integrated optical readout, which allows to perform all operations in the optical domain. In addition to the technological challenge of designing such a readout, new algorithms have to be designed in order to train it. Foremost, suitable algorithms need to be able to deal with the fact that the actual on-chip reservoir states are not directly observable. In this work, we investigate several options for such a training algorithm and propose a solution in which the complex states of the reservoir can be observed by appropriately setting the readout weights, while iterating over a predefined input sequence. We perform numerical simulations in order to compare our method with an ideal baseline requiring full observability as well as with an established black-box optimization approach (CMA-ES).

description: Email triage involves going through unhandled emails and deciding what to do with them. This familiar process can become increasingly challenging as the number of unhandled email grows. During a triage session, users commonly defer handling emails that they cannot immediately deal with to later. These deferred emails, are often related to tasks that are postponed until the user has more time or the right information to deal with them. In this paper, through qualitative interviews and a large-scale log analysis, we study when and what enterprise email users tend to defer. We found that users are more likely to defer emails when handling them involves replying, reading carefully, or clicking on links and attachments. We also learned that the decision to defer emails depends on many factors such as user's workload and the importance of the sender. Our qualitative results suggested that deferring is very common, and our quantitative log analysis confirms that 12% of triage sessions and 16% of daily active users had at least one deferred email on weekdays. We also discuss several deferral strategies such as marking emails as unread and flagging that are reported by our interviewees, and illustrate how such patterns can be also observed in user logs. Inspired by the characteristics of deferred emails and contextual factors involved in deciding if an email should be deferred, we train a classifier for predicting whether a recently triaged email is actually deferred. Our experimental results suggests that deferral can be classified with modest effectiveness. Overall, our work provides novel insights about how users handle their emails and how deferral can be modeled.

 Lectotypus (designated here): FRANCE. Dept. d’outremer Martinique: s.d., Sieber 6 (HAL [HAL0101719]!; isolecto-: BM [BM000839201]!, BR!, GH [00005076]!, GOET!, L!, M!, MO2055682!, MPU [MPU019287] image seen, P [P00624765]!, PRC [2 sheets]!, W1889- 0067811!, W1889 -0187269!, W 1189- 0272259!, W1889-0272263!).
 Notes. – Sieber 6 in B was designated as the holotype in the protologue. However, that specimen was lost during WWII and no picture is extant in F (see above). Of the several duplicates only the one from HAL bears an annotation label in the handwriting of Miquel and is designated here as the lectotype. Some specimens with the same number have to be excluded (G [G00341708]!, JE!, K!, P [P00624766]!, W [W0024326]!). They appear to belong to P. hirtella Miq. A specimen in Miquel’s herbarium at U (now in L) is very likely a clastotype. It bears an annotation label in Miquel’s handwriting and mentions Sieber as the collector without collecting number.

description: Estimating the sky background is critical for ground-based astronomical research. In the optical, scattered moonlight dominates the sky background, when the moon is above the horizon. The most uncertain component of a scattered moonlight model is the aerosol scattering. The current sky background model for Cerro Paranal uses an extrapolated aerosol extinction curve. With a set of X-Shooter sky observations, we have tested the current model as well as determined the aerosol extinction from the ultra-violet to near-infrared. To our knowledge, this is the first time that a scattered moonlight model has been used for this purpose. These observations were taken of blank sky, during three different lunar phases, and at six different angular distances from the moon for each night/lunar phase. Overall, the current model does reproduce the observations for average conditions decently well. Using a set of sky background models with varying aerosol distributions to compare with the observations, we found the most likely aerosol extinction curves, phase functions, and volume densities for the three nights of observations and compare them with the current model. While there were some degeneracies in the aerosol scattering properties, the extinction curves tend to flatten towards redder wavelengths and are overall less steep compared to the extrapolated curve used in the current model. Also, the current model had significantly less coarse particles compared to the favored volume densities from the X-Shooter data. For the three nights of sky observations, the aerosol size distributions differed, most likely reflecting the changes in atmospheric conditions and aerosol content. In short, the current sky background model is in fair agreement with the observations, and we have determined better aerosol extinction curves and phase functions for Cerro Paranal.

description: We study numerically the onset of chaos and thermalization in the Banks-Fischler-Shenker-Susskind (BFSS) matrix model with and without fermions, considering Lyapunov exponents, entanglement generation, and quasinormal ringing. We approximate the real-time dynamics in terms of the most general Gaussian density matrices with parameters which obey self-consistent equations of motion, thus extending the applicability of real-time simulations beyond the classical limit. Initial values of these Gaussian density matrices are optimized to be as close as possible to the thermal equilibrium state of the system. Thus attempting to bridge between the low-energy regime with a calculable holographic description and the classical regime at high energies, we find that quantum corrections to classical dynamics tend to decrease the Lyapunov exponents, which is essential for consistency with the Maldacena-Shenker-Stanford (MSS) bound at low temperatures. The entanglement entropy is found to exhibit an expected "scrambling" behavior - rapid initial growth followed by saturation. At least at high temperatures the entanglement saturation time appears to be governed by classical Lyapunov exponents. Decay of quasinormal modes is found to be characterized by the shortest time scale of all. We also find that while the bosonic matrix model becomes non-chaotic in the low-temperature regime, for the full BFSS model with fermions the leading Lyapunov exponent, entanglement saturation time, and decay rate of quasinormal modes all remain finite and non-zero down to the lowest temperatures.

description: This MA thesis presents my translation from Arabic to English of the introduction and two chapters from the novel مدينة الموتى (The City of the Dead) by the Egyptian author Hassan Elgendy. This thesis also includes a commentary and analysis of the issues of cultural equivalence that arose during the translation process. The novel is a horror fiction set within Arab and Islamic culture, which means that it has various culture-specific elements which are not easily transferred into English. These elements are subdivided into two categories: (a) cultural and religious elements and (b) metaphysical elements. The commentary also shows how I adopt Venuti’s (2008) principles of domestication and foreignization in order to reach my purpose of producing a literary translation which, from one side, remains respectful of the source culture discourse, and from the other side, can still be considered as commercially valuable. In order to guide me in my translation choices, I also rely on an anthropological approach referred to as universal cognition, which reflects anthropologists’ efforts to explain cultural similarities between different communities by associating them to the cognitive similarities believed to be universally shared by all humans. By referring to this approach, I do not adopt the traditional focus on the differences between the source and target cultures, but rather look for similarities and common grounds between them, in an attempt to contribute to addressing more effectively issues of cultural equivalence.

description: By means of the Lanczos method we analyze superconducting correlations in ultrasmall grains at fixed particle number. We compute the ground state properties and the excitation gap of the pairing Hamiltonian as a function of the level spacing $δ$. Both quantities turn out to be parity dependent and universal functions of the ratio $δ/Δ$ ($Δ$ is the BCS gap). We then characterize superconductivity in the canonical ensemble from the scaling behavior of correlation functions in energy space.

description: The growing expansion of international trade and investment is associated with the tendency to transform the international commercial arbitration into a mechanism increasingly used to settle disputes arising from these relationships. Some states are not very attracted by international arbitration, what is easily evidenced by the low level of modernization of the relevant legislation and the lack of consolidation of judicial practice. Albania is a similar country. This article aims to discuss, in a comparative light, some important issues in Albanian legal framework and even in the Albanian case law, compared to the New York Convention provisions, concerning the foreign or domestic status of an arbitral award and obstacles for its recognition and enforcement in the Republic of Albania. In this way, some problematic issues addressed by the domestic legal framework are to be presented as well as the necessity for eventual changes. Adoption and implementation of legal instruments, which provide contemporary improvements of arbitration institute, in accordance with the international legal framework, will be a good service to the integration process of the Albanian economy.

description: The ROOT software framework is foundational for the HEP ecosystem, providing capabilities such as IO, a C++ interpreter, GUI, and math libraries. It uses object-oriented concepts and build-time components to layer between them. We believe additional layering formalisms will benefit ROOT and its users. We present the modularization strategy for ROOT which aims to formalize the description of existing source components, making available the dependencies and other metadata externally from the build system, and allow post-install additions of functionality in the runtime environment. components can then be grouped into packages, installable from external repositories to deliver post-install step of missing packages. This provides a mechanism for the wider software ecosystem to interact with a minimalistic install. Reducing intra-component dependencies improves maintainability and code hygiene. We believe helping maintain the smallest "base install" possible will help embedding use cases. The modularization effort draws inspiration from the Java, Python, and Swift ecosystems. Keeping aligned with the modern C++, this strategy relies on forthcoming features such as C++ modules. We hope formalizing the component layer will provide simpler ROOT installs, improve extensibility, and decrease the complexity of embedding in other ecosystems

description: Macroautophagy/autophagy is a natural intracellular process that maintains cellular homeostasis and protects cells from death under stress conditions. Autophagy sustains tumor survival and growth when induced by common cancer treatments, including IR and cytotoxic chemotherapy, thereby contributing to therapeutic resistance of tumors. In this study, we report that the expression of MIR93, noted in two clinically relevant tumor subtypes of GBM, influenced GSC phenotype as well as tumor response to therapy through its effects on autophagy. Our mechanistic studies revealed that MIR93 regulates autophagic activities in GSCs through simultaneous inhibition of multiple autophagy regulators, including BECN1/Beclin 1, ATG5, ATG4B, and SQSTM1/p62. Moreover, two first-line treatments for GBM, IR and temozolomide (TMZ), as well as rapamycin (Rap), the prototypic MTOR inhibitor, decreased MIR93 expression that, in turn, stimulated autophagic processes in GSCs. Inhibition of autophagy by ectopic MIR93 expression, or via autophagy inhibitors NSC (an ATG4B inhibitor) and CQ, enhanced the activity of IR and TMZ against GSCs. Collectively, our findings reveal a key role for MIR93 in the regulation of autophagy and suggest a combination treatment strategy involving the inhibition of autophagy while administering cytotoxic therapy.

description: Η γη είναι ένας περιορισμένος πόρος. Είναι αναγκαίο να αναπτυχθούν βιώσιμα κριτήρια ώστε να εξεταστεί η διαθεσιμότητα της γης για την παραγωγή βιοκαυσίμων. Η Ελλάδα ως μέλος της Ε.Ε πρέπει συμμορφωθεί με την Οδηγία 2003/30/ΕE και να την ενσωματώσει στο εθνική νομοθεσία. Σύμφωνα με αυτή την οδηγία η Ελλάδα θα πρέπει να εξασφαλίσει τη συμμετοχή του 20% από ανανεώσιμες πηγές ενέργειας στην τελική ακαθάριστη κατανάλωση ενέργειας καθώς και το 10% από βιοκαύσιμα στη συνολική κατανάλωση πετρελαίου και βενζίνης στον τομέα των μεταφορών. Ο σκοπός αυτής της εργασίας είναι η εκτίμηση κυρίως των περιβαλλοντικών επιπτώσεων της παραγωγής βιοκαυσίμων. Η μεθοδολογία Ανάλυση Κύκλου Ζωής χρησιμοποιήθηκε για την εκτίμηση των επιπτώσεων του αραβόσιτου (Zea Mays ) – μιας συνηθισμένης καλλιέργειας φαγητού στην Ελλάδα και του ηλίανθου (Helianthus Annus) – μιας καλλιέργειας που μπορεί να αντικαταστήσει την καλλιέργεια αραβόσιτου, με σκοπό την παραγωγή biodiesel. Μετά την εφαρμογή της μεθοδολογίας ΑΚΖ σε κάθε καλλιέργεια ξεχωριστά, έγινε μια προσπάθεια εκτίμησης των περιβαλλοντικών επιπτώσεων. Τέλος έγινε σύγκριση των αποτελεσμάτων της ΑΚΖ ώστε να δοθεί απάντηση στην ερώτηση για το αν η χρήση των βιοκαυσίμων σε τέτοιο βαθμό είναι τόσο βιώσιμη όσο θεωρείται.
description: Land is a limited resource. It is urgent to develop sustainability criteria in order to examine the availability of land for the production of biofuels. Greece as a member state of EC has to conform to the Directive 2003/30/EC and implement it through the national legislation. In this context Greece must ensure a minimum 20% share of renewable sources in gross final energy consumption by 2020 and a mandatory 10% minimum target to be achieved for the share of biofuels in transport petrol and diesel consumption by 2020 as referred to the National Renewable Energy Plan (The Scope of Directive 2009/28/EC, 2009). The objective of this work is to assess the environmental implications of biofuels production. Life Cycle Assessment methodology is used to estimate the impact of the cultivation of corn (Zea Mays) – a common food cultivation in Greece- and sunflower (Helianthus Annus) -a cultivation that may substitute corn for the production of biofuel. After the implementation of Life Cycle Assessment for each cultivation separately, an attempt has been made for the assessment of the environmental impacts. The results of LCA for the two cultivations are compared in order to throw light into the question of whether the use of biofuels in such scale is as sustainable as considered.
