description: We propose a tool-supported framework to reason about requirements constraining resource distributions and devise strategies for routing essential services in a disaster-affected region. At the core of our approach is the Route Advisor for Disaster-Affected Regions (RADAR) framework that operates on high-level algebraic representations of the region, modelled as a cyber-physical system (cps) where resource distribution is carried out over an infrastructure connecting physical geographical locations. The Satisfiable-Modulo Theories (SMT) and graph-theoretic algorithms used by the framework supports disaster management decision-making during response and preparedness phases. We demonstrate our approach on a case study in disaster management and describe scenarios to illustrate the usefulness of RADAR.

description: There is a gap in scientific information systems development concerning modern software engineering and scientific computing. Historically, software engineering methodologies have been perceived as an unwanted accidental complexity to computational scientists in their scientific systems development. More recent trends, like the end of Moore's law and the subsequent diversification of hardware platforms, combined with the increasing multidisciplinarity of science itself have exacerbated the problem because self-taught "end user developers" are not familiar with the disciplines needed to tackle this increased complexity. On a more positive note, agile programming methods have approached software development practices to the way scientific software is produced. In this work, we present the experience of a multi-year industry research project where agile methods, microservices and DevOps were applied. Our goal is to validate the hypothesis that the use of microservices would allow computational scientists to work in the more minimalistic prototype-oriented way that they prefer while the software engineering team would handle the integration. Hence, scientific multidisciplinary systems would gain in a twofold way: (i) Subject Matter Experts(SME) use their preferable tools to develop the specific scientific part of the system; (ii) software engineers provide the high quality software code for the system delivery.

description: Im 15. Jahrhundert finden in den österreichischen Klöstern verschiedene Schriftexperimente statt, die sich nicht nur auf Codices literarischen oder historiographischen Inhalts beschränken, sondern auch Verwaltungsschriftgut und Urkundenausfertigungen einschließen. In synkretistischer Weise werden im zumindest mittelbaren Umfeld der "Melker" Reform Versuche einer Neustilisierung vorgotischen Schreibens umgesetzt, die nicht nur programmatisch, sondern auch formal starke Berührungspunkte mit der gleichzeitigen Entwicklung humanistischer Minuskel in Italien aufweisen. Da gerade die personalen Beziehungen einzelner Protagonisten der "Melker" Reform nach Italien (besonders Montecassino) evident und seit langem bekannt sind, erscheint eine italienisch-humanistische Tangente dieser bislang eher als Phänomene nordalpinen monastischen Historismus verstandenen Schriften durchaus plausibel. Daneben speisen sich Neuschöpfungen diplomatischer Schriften in österreichischen Klosterurkunden des weiteren Reformkreises aber ebenso aus dem breiten Pool kurialer Vorbilder. Der Vortrag versucht, Formen und Rahmenbedingungen dieser neuen Schreibpraxis zu systematisieren und zugleich die gemeinschaftsstiftende Funktion dieser avantgardistischen oder jedenfalls innovativen Urkundenschriften, etwa im Rahmen von klösterlichen Gebetsverbrüderungen, zu beleuchten.
Evaluation of techniques employed in the study of alanine metabolism in sheep

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: In view of the importance of alanine as a gluconeogenic precursor in ruminants, the objective of the present study was to assess the effectiveness of three techniques in estimating the metabolic parameters surrounding alanine in wethers fed a maintenance diet of alfalfa hay. A preliminary experiment utilized a blood flow technique to study the net production and/or utilization of both alanine and glucose by the portal drained viscera. Such a method involved evaluating the arterio-venous concentration differences of alanine and glucose, in conjunction with determining the rate of portal vein blood flow. Radioactively labelled ¹⁴C - alanine was administered as a single injection in the second series of experiments to estimate the metabolic parameters of alanine as well as its contribution to glucose synthesis. The L-U-¹⁴C-alanine was given intravenously through previously implanted jugular catheters and the fall in the specific activity of plasma alanine with time was determined. The line of best fit for the decay curve of the specific activity of plasma alanine was constructed by means of a computer using a multi-term exponential function which enables the estimation of such parameters as the pool size, space, total entry rate, irreversible loss and recycling of alanine. The per cent conversion of alanine to glucose was determined by the corresponding peak of glucose specific activity following the single injection of ¹⁴C - alanine. The turnover of alanine was also studied using a continuous infusion of L-U-¹⁴C-alanine without a priming injection. The specific activity of plasma alanine reached a plateau five hours after the beginning of the infusion. It was from these plateau levels that the rate of irreversible loss of alanine as well as its percent conversion to glucose was estimated. The results indicated that the single injection technique was able to partition the total entry rate of alanine into irreversible loss and recycling and thus prove more informative than a continuous infusion method. The present study also suggested that under certain physiological stress conditions in ruminants, where recycling becomes prominent, a continuous infusion approach may overestimate the actual rate of irreversible loss of alanine.

description: The reaction between He$^+$ and CH$_3$F forming predominantly CH$_2^+$ and CHF$^+$ has been studied at collision energies $E_{\rm coll}$ between 0 and $k_{\rm B}\cdot 10$~K in a merged-beam apparatus. To avoid heating of the ions by stray electric fields, the reaction was observed within the orbit of a highly excited Rydberg electron. Supersonic beams of CH$_3$F and He($n$) Rydberg atoms with principal quantum number $n= 30$ and 35 were merged and their relative velocity tuned using a Rydberg-Stark decelerator and deflector, allowing an energy resolution of 150 mK. A strong enhancement of the reaction rate was observed below $E_{\rm coll}/k_{\rm B} = 1$~K. The experimental results are interpreted with an adiabatic capture model that accounts for the state-dependent orientation of the polar CH$_3$F molecules by the Stark effect as they approach the He$^+$ ion. The enhancement of the reaction rate at low collision energies is primarily attributed to para-CH$_3$F molecules in the $J=1,\,KM=1$ high-field-seeking states, which represent about 8\% of the population at the 6~K rotational temperature of the supersonic beam.

description: Oxygen is a constituent of many of the most abundant molecules detected in exoplanetary atmospheres and a key ingredient for tracking how and where a planet formed. In particular, the OI 777.4 nm triplet is used to probe airglow and aurora on the Earth and the oxygen abundance in stellar atmospheres, but has not been detected in an exoplanet atmosphere before. We present a definite ground-based detection of the neutral oxygen 777.4 nm triplet lines in the transmission spectrum of the ultra-hot Jupiter KELT-9b, the hottest known giant planet. The synthetic spectrum computed employing novel non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) radiative transfer calculations matches the data significantly better compared to the one computed assuming local thermodynamic equilibrium. These NLTE radiative transfer calculations imply a mass-loss rate of 10^8-10^9 kg s-1, which exceeds the lower limit of 10^7-10^8 kg s-1 required to facilitate the escape of oxygen and iron from the atmosphere. Assuming a solar oxygen abundance, the NLTE model points towards the need of microturbulence and macroturbulence broadening of 3.0pm0.7 km s-1 and 13pm5 km s-1, respectively, indicative of the presence of fast winds in the middle and upper atmosphere. Present and upcoming high-resolution spectrographs will allow the detection in other exoplanets of the 777.4 nm OI triplet, which is a powerful tool to constrain the key characteristics of exoplanetary atmospheres when coupled with forward modelling accounting for NLTE effects.

description: We study the tensor modes of linear metric perturbations within an effective framework of loop quantum cosmology. After a review of inverse-volume and holonomy corrections in the background equations of motion, we solve the linearized tensor modes equations and extract their spectrum. Ignoring holonomy corrections, the tensor spectrum is blue tilted in the near-Planckian superinflationary regime and may be observationally disfavoured. However, in this case background dynamics is highly nonperturbative, hence the use of standard perturbative techniques may not be very reliable. On the other hand, in the quasi-classical regime the tensor index receives a small negative quantum correction, slightly enhancing the standard red tilt in slow-roll inflation. We discuss possible interpretations of this correction, which depends on the choice of semiclassical state.

description: The topic of this paper is visual elements of charters that are not just writing – a new definition of “graphical components”. My point of view as an art historian is confronted with the approach of diplomatics. The medial relevance of visual elements that constitute documents as a "text type" and their strength to function as logos for institutions will be considered.

The long term project “Illuminated Charters” is presented and common goals with the ongoing BeCoRe project are mentioned. A “meta-level” of the paper is the question of how the material can be structured. The controlled vocabulary that has been successfully used for more than 4000 illuminated charters is presented.
Sawlog pollution in the Lower Fraser River
Creators: name: Fairbairn, Bruce
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Wood debris has been a natural component of the Fraser River system for centuries. However, with the development and expansion of a diverse forest industry in British Columbia, the volume of waterborne logging wastes being discarded into the river has gradually increased to the point where logging slash, uncontrolled sawlogs, trimmed log ends and dislodged bark now present a serious problem to the users of the Lower Fraser and its shorelands. Where water pollution can be defined as any residual discharge into a watercourse which causes both a deterioration in the quality of the receiving waters and some form of related social costs, sawlogs and other types of wood debris present a rather unique example of a pollutant to the Lower Fraser River. From this perspective, the available literature on pollution control provides an appropriate methodology for defining and analyzing the issues and problems associated with the presence of this material in the waterway. In 1972, uncontrolled sawlogs accounted for 9.2 million cubic feet of wood debris or roughly 80 per cent of the total debris load in the river. These logs were responsible for approximately 4.5 million dollars in costs to fishermen, pleasure boat owners, harbour authorities, and private logging companies. While it is realized that there are substantial additional costs related to the environmental impacts of sawlog debris, more studies are needed to determine the significance of these impacts on

HiPEAC Vision 2025

Year: 2025

description: The HiPEAC Vision seeks to set a long-term vision for the future of computing systems. Hence the main directions are quite similar from one edition to the other, although each edition has inflexions deriving from what is currently going on in computing systems.

As such, the ‘races’ introduced in the HiPEAC Vision 2023 are still valid (indeed, increasingly so), as is the proposed direction towards the ‘next computing paradigm’ outlined in the HiPEAC Vision 2024, which even more achievable due to the current advances in science and technology.

It is obvious that the most influential element between the HiPEAC Vision 2024 and this Vision 2025 is the exponential progress of artificial intelligence (AI). This is reflected in this edition, where the two main highlights are how to realize the NCP and the impact of AI. They are even merged into short-term recommendations: using the emergence of distributed agentic AI to set the basis of the NCP technology, i.e. to be the blueprints of what could be a more generic and omnipresent NCP, but one which is adapted to the particular case of distributed agentic AI. We will see in the part of this vision related to artificial intelligence that it is logical because there are close similarities of requirements and technologies between both.

The main focus of the HiPEAC Vision 2025 is therefore the NCP, and its implications in different domains: artificial intelligence, new innovative hardware, tools to develop more efficient hardware and software, cyber-physical systems, cybersecurity, and sustainability. This is complemented by an analysis of the position of Europe, with suggestions of how to improve Europe’s position in relation to the global races.

description: The metaverse was first introduced in 1992. Many people saw Metaverse as a new word but the concept of Metaverse is not a new term. However, Zuckerberg's press release drew all the attention to the Metaverse. This study presents a bibliometric evaluation of metaverse technology, which has been discussed in the literature since the nineties. A field study is carried out especially for the metaverse, which is a new and trendy subject. In this way, descriptive information is presented on journals, institutions, prominent researchers, and countries in the field, as well as extra evaluation on the prominent topics in the field and researchers with heavy citations. In our study, which was carried out by extracting the data of all documents between the years 1990-2021 from the Web of Science database, it was seen that there were few studies in the literature in the historical process for the metaverse, whose popularity has reached its peak in recent months. In addition, it is seen that the subject is handled intensively with virtual reality and augmented reality technologies, and the education sector and digital marketing fields show interest in the field. Metaverse will probably have entered many areas of our lives in the next 15-20 years, shape our lives by taking advantage of the opportunities of developing technology.
The Essential Role of Pair Matching in Cluster-Randomized Experiments, with Application to the Mexican Universal Health Insurance Evaluation

description: A basic feature of many field experiments is that investigators are only able to randomize clusters of individuals--such as households, communities, firms, medical practices, schools or classrooms--even when the individual is the unit of interest. To recoup the resulting efficiency loss, some studies pair similar clusters and randomize treatment within pairs. However, many other studies avoid pairing, in part because of claims in the literature, echoed by clinical trials standards organizations, that this matched-pair, cluster-randomization design has serious problems. We argue that all such claims are unfounded. We also prove that the estimator recommended for this design in the literature is unbiased only in situations when matching is unnecessary; its standard error is also invalid. To overcome this problem without modeling assumptions, we develop a simple design-based estimator with much improved statistical properties. We also propose a model-based approach that includes some of the benefits of our design-based estimator as well as the estimator in the literature. Our methods also address individual-level noncompliance, which is common in applications but not allowed for in most existing methods. We show that from the perspective of bias, efficiency, power, robustness or research costs, and in large or small samples, pairing should be used in cluster-randomized experiments whenever feasible; failing to do so is equivalent to discarding a considerable fraction of one's data. We develop these techniques in the context of a randomized evaluation we are conducting of the Mexican Universal Health Insurance Program.

The spatio-temporal CNN architecture and the training process of the model are tailored according to the addressed subtask. The method has the purpose of helping the participants to solve the task and is not meant to reach stateof-the-art performance. Still, for the detection task, the baseline is performing better than the other participants, which stresses the difficulty of such a task.

description: We consider two social consensus models, the AB-model and the Naming Game restricted to two conventions, which describe a population of interacting agents that can be in either of two equivalent states (A or B) or in a third mixed (AB) state. Proposed in the context of language competition and emergence, the AB state was associated with bilingualism and synonymy respectively. We show that the two models are equivalent in the mean field approximation, though the differences at the microscopic level have non-trivial consequences. To point them out, we investigate an extension of these dynamics in which confidence/trust is considered, focusing on the case of an underlying fully connected graph, and we show that the consensus-polarization phase transition taking place in the Naming Game is not observed in the AB model. We then consider the interface motion in regular lattices. Qualitatively, both models show the same behavior: a diffusive interface motion in a one-dimensional lattice, and a curvature driven dynamics with diffusing stripe-like metastable states in a two-dimensional one. However, in comparison to the Naming Game, the AB-model dynamics is shown to slow down the diffusion of such configurations.

description: 1. Gypsophila platyphylla Boiss. Based onBornmüller (1911), G. boissieriana Hausskn. & Bornm. (holo-, B, destroyed) is distinguishable from G. platyphylla Boiss. (the lectotype G-Boiss was designated by Barkoudah [1962: 152]) by being glandularhairy only in upper internodes and pedicels, and having thicker and higher stems, longer calyx with acuminate teeth, petals without contraction between limb and claw.Barkoudah also mentioned some other differences such as having longer stamens and styles and having only 12-16 ovules. REMARKS Having studied numerous specimens we found more variation in ranges of characters. All of our specimens – even of type locality of G. platyphylla (Mt. Shahu) – show more resemblance to G. boissieriana description. Although G. boissieriana was for the first time reported from Iraq, the type localities of these two species are very close together (Fig.1). Moreover, based on photos of type specimens, it seems that differences in size of many parts of two species which is mentioned in two descriptions are due to phase of growing of specimens. The type specimens of G. platyphylla (Haussknecht 183, iso-, LE[LE00012092]!; K photo [K000725732]!; JE photo [JE00015476]!; P photo [P04981475]!) obviously are in fruiting phase, but the type specimens of G. boissieriana (Bornmüller 957; iso-, LE!; K photo [K000725733]!; JE photo [JE00015517, JE00015518]!; P photo [P01903168]!) are in flowering phase.

description: We present a study of the effects of dispersion on the properties of photon pairs generated by type-II, collinear spontaneous parametric downconversion. Specifically, we take into consideration the effects of a chirped pump, as well as of dispersive propagation of the photon pairs. We present expressions for the joint amplitude both in the spectral and temporal domains, as well as for the chronocyclic Wigner function of heralded single photons, which fully characterizes the single photon spectral (temporal) properties. On the one hand, we show that unwanted effects of pump chirp in terms of the heralded single photon duration can be suppressed for states designed to be factorable and spectrally elongated. On the other hand, we show that pump chirp constitutes an effective tool for the control of the degree of photon-pair entanglement. We show that when frequency-entangled photon pairs propagate through a dispersive medium, entanglement can "migrate" between the modulus and phase of the joint temporal amplitude.

description: We examine the angular momentum loss and associated rotational spindown for magnetic hot stars with a line-driven stellar wind and a rotation-aligned dipole magnetic field. Our analysis here is based on our previous 2-D numerical MHD simulation study that examines the interplay among wind, field, and rotation as a function of two dimensionless parameters, one characterizing the wind magnetic confinement ($η_{\ast} \equiv B_{eq}^{2} R_{\ast}^{2}/{\dot M} v_{\infty}$), and the other the ratio ($W \equiv V_{rot}/V_{orb}$) of stellar rotation to critical (orbital) speed. We compare and contrast the 2-D, time variable angular momentum loss of this dipole model of a hot-star wind with the classical 1-D steady-state analysis by Weber and Davis (WD), who used an idealized monopole field to model the angular momentum loss in the solar wind. Despite the differences, we find that the total angular momentum loss ${\dot J}$ averaged over both solid angle and time follows closely the general WD scaling ${\dot J} = (2/3) {\dot M} ΩR_{A}^{2}$, where ${\dot M}$ is the mass loss rate, $Ω$ is the stellar angular velocity, and $R_{A}$ is a characteristic Alfvén radius. However, a key distinction here is that for a dipole field, this Alfvén radius has a strong-field scaling $R_{A}/R_{\ast} \approx η_{\ast}^{1/4}$, instead of the scaling $R_{A}/R_{\ast} \sim \sqrt{η_{\ast}}$ for a monopole field. This leads to a slower stellar spindown time that in the dipole case scales as $τ_{spin} = τ_{mass} 1.5k/\sqrt{η_{\ast}}$, where $τ_{mass} \equiv M/{\dot M}$ is the characteristic mass loss time, and $k$ is the dimensionless factor for stellar moment of inertia. The full numerical scaling relation we cite gives typical spindown times of order 1 Myr for several known magnetic massive stars.

An analysis of the effect of market regulation in the broiler industry in British Columbia and Washington
Creators: name: Dixon, Wendy Holm
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The purpose of this study has been to analyze the effect of market regulation in the broiler industry in British Columbia and Washington State by comparing and contrasting the structure, conduct and performance of two institutions established to provide a degree of organization by producers in the marketing of broiler chickens. The two institutions studied have been the B.C. Broiler Marketing Board, in the province of British Columbia, Canada and the Washington Fryer Commission, in the state of Washington, United States of America. An analysis of the structure and conduct of the B.C. Broiler Marketing Board and the Washington Fryer Commission has been presented. An objectives model for organized marketing in the agricultural sector has been proposed, and from this model criteria have been chosen upon which to evaluate the market performance of the two structures with respect to organized marketing. It has been observed that the powers held by the B.C. Broiler Marketing Board are far more extensive than those held by the Washington Fryer Commission. It has been further observed that the performance of the B.C. Broiler Marketing Board has been primarily restrictive in nature and has had serious negative effects on the market environment for broiler chickens in British Columbia. The performance of the Washington Fryer Commission has been supportive in nature, and has had a positive effect on the market environment for broiler chickens in Washington State. In analysing the two approachs to organized marketing in the broiler industry, it has been concluded that the vesting of powerful tools of market regulation with primary producer groups (whose interests are narrowly defined) leads to inefficiencies in production and marketing which have serious effects on the industry as a whole.

description: We show herein fabrication and field-modulated thermopower for KTaO3 single-crystal based field-effect transistors (FETs). The KTaO3 FET exhibits field effect mobility of ~8 cm2/Vs, which is ~4 times larger than that of SrTiO3 FETs. The thermopower of the KTaO3 FET decreased from 600 to 220 microV/K by the application of gate electric field up to 1.5 MV/cm, ~400 microV/K below that of an SrTiO3 FET, clearly reflecting the smaller carrier effective mass of KTaO3.

description: (Abridged). We aim at bridging the gap between absorption selected and emission selected galaxies at z~3 by probing the faint end of the luminosity function of star-forming galaxies at z~3. We have performed narrow-band imaging in three fields with intervening QSO absorbers (a damped Ly$α$ absorber and two Lyman-limit systems) using the VLT. We target Ly-alpha at redshifts 2.85, 3.15 and 3.20. We find a consistent surface density of about 10 Ly-alpha-emitters per square arcmin per unit redshift in all three fields down to our detection limit of about 3x10^41 ergs s^-1. The luminosity function is consistent with what has been found by other surveys at similar redshifts. About 85% of the sources are fainter than the canonical limit of R=25.5 for most Lyman-break galaxy surveys. In none of the three fields do we detect the emission counterparts of the QSO absorbers. In particular we do not detect the counterpart of the z=2.85 damped Ly-alpha absorber towards Q2138-4427. Narrow-band surveys for Ly-alpha emitters are excellent to probe the faint end of the luminosity function at z~3. There is a very high surface density of this class of objects. This is consistent with a very steep slope of the faint end of the luminosity function as has been inferred by other studies. This faint population of galaxies is playing a central role in the early Universe. There is evidence that this population is dominating the integrated star-formation activity, responsible for the bulk of the ionizing photons at z~3 and likely also responsible for the bulk of the enrichment of the intergalactic medium.

description: Within a two-band model for the recently discovered ferropnictide materials, we calculate the thermal conductivity assuming general superconducting states of $A_{1g}$ ("s-wave") symmetry, considering both currently popular isotropic "sign-changing" $s$ states and states with strong anisotropy, including those which manifest nodes or deep minima of the order parameter. We consider both intra- and interband disorder scattering effects, and show that in situations where a low-temperature linear-$T$ exists in the thermal conductivity, it is not always "universal" as in d-wave superconductors. We discuss the conditions under which such a term can disappear, as well as how it can be induced by a magnetic field. We compare our results to several recent experiments.

description: We present the first detailed analysis of the mass and dynamical structure of a sample of six early-type lens galaxies, selected from the Sloan Lens ACS Survey, in the redshift range 0.08 < z < 0.33. Both Hubble Space Telescope (HST)/ACS high-resolution imaging and VLT VIMOS integral field spectroscopy are available for these systems. The galaxies are modelled - under the assumptions of axial symmetry and two-integral stellar distribution function - by making use of the CAULDRON code, which self-consistently combines gravitational lensing and stellar dynamics, and is fully embedded within the framework of Bayesian statistics. The principal results of this study are: (i) all galaxies in the sample are well described by a simple axisymmetric power-law profile for the total density, with a logarithmic slope gamma very close to isothermal ( = 1.98 +/- 0.05 and an intrinsic spread close to 5 per cent) showing no evidence of evolution over the probed range of redshift; (ii) the axial ratio of the total density distribution is rounder than 0.65 and in all cases, except for a fast rotator, does not deviate significantly from the flattening of the intrinsic stellar distribution; (iii) the dark matter fraction within the effective radius has a lower limit of about 15 to 30 per cent; (iv) the sample galaxies are only mildly anisotropic, with delta <= 0.16; (v) the physical distinction among slow and fast rotators, quantified by the v/sigma ratio and the intrinsic angular momentum, is already present at z > 0.1. Altogether, early-type galaxies at z = 0.08 - 0.33 are found to be markedly smooth and almost isothermal systems, structurally and dynamically very similar to their nearby counterparts. (Abridged)

description: The objective of the paper is to assess the accuracy of a standard FDTD code in the analysis of the near and far-field characteristics of two-dimensional models of small-size dielectric lens antennas made of low or high-index materials and fed by the line sources. We consider extended hemielliptic lenses and use the Muller boundary integral equations method as a suitable reference solution. Inaccuracies of FDTD near so-called half-bowtie resonances are detected. Denser meshing reduces the error of FDTD only to a certain level determined by the type of absorbing boundary conditions used and other fine details of the code. Out of these resonances, FDTD code is demonstrated as capable of providing sufficient accuracy in the near and far-field analysis of small-size hemielliptic lenses typical for the mm-wave applications.

description: The capability of density-functional theory to deal with the ground-state of strongly correlated low-dimensional systems, such as semiconductor quantum dots, depends on the accuracy of functionals developed for the exchange and correlation energies. Here we extend a successful approximation for the correlation energy of the three dimensional inhomogeneous electron gas, originally introduced by Becke [J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 88}, 1053 (1988)], to the two-dimensional case. The approach aims to non-empirical modeling of the correlation-hole functions satisfying a set of exact properties. Furthermore, the electron current and spin are explicitly taken into account. As a result, good performance is obtained in comparison with numerically exact data for quantum dots with varying external magnetic field, and for the homogeneous two-dimensional electron gas, respectively.

description: We employ the linear sigma model to study the chiral dynamics of two flavors of quarks at finite temperature and density. Our calculations include thermal fluctuations of both the bosonic and fermionic fields. In particular, we determine the phase diagram in the plane of temperature and baryon chemical potential as a function of the pion mass. An interesting phase structure occurs that results in zero, one, or two critical points depending on the value of the vacuum pion mass.
