Stochastic reacceleration of relativistic electrons by turbulent reconnection: a mechanism for cluster-scale radio emission ?

description: In this paper we investigate a situation where relativistic particles are reaccelerated diffusing across regions of reconnection and magnetic dynamo in super-Alfvenic, incompressible large-scale turbulence. We present an exploratory study of this mechanism in the intra-cluster-medium (ICM). In view of large-scale turbulence in the ICM we adopt a reconnection scheme that is based on turbulent reconnection and MHD turbulence. In this case particles are accelerated and decelerated in a systematic way in reconnecting and magnetic-dynamo regions, respectively, and on longer time-scales undergo a stochastic process diffusing across these sites (similar to second-order Fermi). Our study extends on larger scales numerical studies that focused on the acceleration in and around turbulent reconnecting regions. We suggest that this mechanism may play a role in the reacceleration of relativistic electrons in galaxy clusters providing a new physical scenario to explain the origin of cluster-scale diffuse radio emission. Indeed differently from current turbulent reacceleration models proposed for example for radio halos this mechanism is based on the effect of large-scale incompressible and super-Alfvenic turbulence. In this new model turbulence governs the interaction between relativistic particles and magnetic field lines that diffuse, reconnect and are stretched in the turbulent ICM.

description: We report pure carbon-based superlattices that exhibit direct band gaps and excellent optical absorption and emission properties at the threshold energy. The structures are nearly identical to that of cubic diamond except that defective layers characterized by five- and seven-membered rings are intercalated in the diamond lattice. The direct band gaps lie in the range of 5.6~5.9 eV, corresponding to wavelengths of 210~221 nm. The dipole matrix elements of direct optical transition are comparable to that of GaN, suggesting that the superlattices are promising materials as an efficient deep ultraviolet light emitter. Molecular dynamics simulations show that the superlattices are thermally stable even at a high temperature of 2000 K. We provide a possible route to the synthesis of superlattices through wafer bonding of diamond (100) surfaces.

description: We investigate temperature smearing effects on the electron-boson spectral density function ($I^2χ(ω)$) obtained from optical data using a maximum entropy inversion method. We start with two simple model input $I^2χ(ω)$, calculate the optical scattering rates at selected temperatures using the model input spectral density functions and a generalized Allen's formula, then extract back $I^2χ(ω)$ at each temperature from the calculated optical scattering rate using the maximum entropy method (MEM) which has been used for analysis of optical data of high-temperature superconductors including cuprates, and finally compare the resulting $I^2χ(ω)$ with the input ones. From this approach we find that the inversion process can recover the input $I^2χ(ω)$ almost perfectly when the quality of fits is good enough and also temperature smearing (or thermal broadening) effects appear in the $I^2χ(ω)$ when the quality of fits is not good enough. We found that the coupling constant and the logarithmically averaged frequency are robust to the temperature smearing effects and/or the quality of fits. We use these robust properties of the two quantities as criterions to check whether experimental data have intrinsic temperature-dependent evolutions or not. We carefully apply the MEM to two material systems (one optimally doped and the other underdoped cuprates) and conclude that the $I^2χ(ω)$ extracted from the optical data contain intrinsic temperature-dependent evolutions.

description: Testing truth-default theory, individual-level variation in lie frequency was parsed from within-individual day-to-day variation (good/bad lie days) by examining 116,366 lies told by 632 participants over 91 days. As predicted and consistent with prior findings, the distribution was positively skewed. Most participants lied infrequently and most lies were told by a few prolific liars. Approximately three-quarters of participants were consistently low-frequency liars. Across participants, lying comprised 7% of total communication and almost 90% of all lies were little white lies. About 58% of the variance was explained by stable individual differences with approximately 42% of the variance attributable to within-person day-to-day variability. The data were consistent with both the existence of a few prolific liars and good/bad lie days.

Following the Just Energy Transition in Colombia with CLEW
Creators: name: Ramírez-Tovar, A.M.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: This study employs the Open-Source Energy Modelling System (OSeMOSYS), selected for its capacity to facilitate Climate-Land-Energy-Water System (CLEWs) interactions. The analysis first explores a Baseline for Colombia, followed by two further scenarios. The Baseline assumes continuity along the current trajectory; the second scenario, follows the actual policy intention of “Just Energy Transition” with 6GW of new renewables by 2026; and the third scenario, includes 100% of electric demand covers by renewables.

 The findings underscore a significant challenge: achieving 100% renewable energy electrification necessitates substantial land-use changes, potentially instigating social conflicts over land access. To address this, the report recommends prioritizing distributed generation, implementing robust energy efficiency policies, and fostering citizen involvement through energy communities. Additionally, the analysis suggests that current policy intention alone may not yield a sustained reduction in CO2eq emissions unless accompanied by a shift in the country's approach to new renewable energy investments. The report concludes the significance of the CLEWs nexus in analysing technical data for a sustainable energy transition and integration into policy and decision-making processes.

 In summary, this study not only provides critical insights into the challenges and opportunities presented by different energy transition pathways but also underscores the importance of strategic policy decisions, community engagement, and the adoption of advanced modelling frameworks in steering Colombia towards a sustainable and resilient energy future.

description: Oxygen octahedra tilting is a common structural phenomenon in perovskites and has been subject of intensive studies, particularly in rhombohedral Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT). Early reports suggest that the tilted octahedra may strongly affect the domain switching behavior, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of PZT ceramics. In a way similar to that proposed for tilts, however, charged defects, associated with oxygen vacancies, may also inhibit the motion of the domain walls, resulting macroscopically in pinched hysteresis loops and reduced piezoelectric response. Here, we revisit the early studies on rhombohedral PZT ceramics with tilted octahedra by considering a possible role of both tilts and charged defects on domain-wall motion. We show that the observed pinched hysteresis loops are likely associated with the presence of defect complexes containing charged oxygen vacancies, and not tilts as suggested in some cases. Regardless of the presence or absence of long-range ordered tilts in rhombohedral PZT, the effect of charged defects is also prominent in weak-field permittivity and piezoelectric properties, particularly at sub-Hz driving conditions where the conductivity, related to the motion of oxygen vacancies, gives rise to strong frequency dispersion.

description: Extending work on the everyday communication practices through which relationships are constituted, we examined the micro–moments of food service and the provision of social support in field recordings of everyday family life. We found that frequently when communicators serve themselves an item at the dinner table they offer that item to others, even when there is no indication that the other needs it. We revealed specific communication practices through which social support is implemented when offering food to others during self–service, indicating that in delivering tangible social support one may also provide emotional social support. Additionally, we showed that precisely where the offer is produced during self–service further impacts the relational implications of this support.

description: News is often sourced not directly from journalistic outlets, but from various actors that “curate” content into individuals' information networks. Although these curating actors impact the news individuals receive, little is known about their behind-the-scenes curatorial decision-making. Addressing this gap, I isolated one kind of curating actor in the flow of political information: social movement organizations. Drawing on an ethnographic case study from the U.S. transgender movement, I analyzed the “logics of curation” at play in organizations' social media practices. These logics included the internal criteria by which they decided what news stories to share, how they decided when and by which media each story should be shared, and what they hoped to achieve as the end result of curation.

Nitrogen and oxygen abundances in the Local Universe

description: We present chemical evolution models aimed at reproducing the observed (N/O) vs. (O/H) abundance pattern of star forming galaxies in the Local Universe. We derive gas-phase abundances from SDSS spectroscopy and a complementary sample of low-metallicity dwarf galaxies, making use of a consistent set of abundance calibrations. This collection of data clearly confirms the existence of a plateau in the (N/O) ratio at very low metallicity, followed by an increase of this ratio up to high values as the metallicity increases. This trend can be interpreted as due to two main sources of nitrogen in galaxies: i) massive stars, which produce small amounts of pure primary nitrogen and are responsible for the (N/O) ratio in the low metallicity plateau; ii) low- and intermediate-mass stars, which produce both secondary and primary nitrogen and enrich the interstellar medium with a time delay relative to massive stars, and cause the increase of the (N/O) ratio. We find that the length of the low-metallicity plateau is almost solely determined by the star formation efficiency, which regulates the rate of oxygen production by massive stars. We show that, to reproduce the high observed (N/O) ratios at high (O/H), as well as the right slope of the (N/O) vs. (O/H) curve, a differential galactic wind - where oxygen is assumed to be lost more easily than nitrogen - is necessary. No existing set of stellar yields can reproduce the observed trend without assuming differential galactic winds. Finally, considering the current best set of stellar yields, a bottom-heavy initial mass function is favoured to reproduce the data.

The core of this thesis work relies on my own Polish-Canadian identity, the material exploration of paper through printmaking, the Polish folk art called wycinanki and installation. Nostalgia is present in the work as I reference my early childhood, which is a time when I felt the strongest connection to my Polish heritage and before I began to assimilate into Canadian culture. It is through artmaking that I bridge the gap between my identities. The tactility of the repetitive actions of printmaking and paper cutting allows for my mind to remember the place of childhood.

A near field optical image of a gold surface: a luminescence study

description: This paper addresses recent experimental findings about luminescence of a gold tip in near-field interaction with a gold surface. Our electrochemically etched gold tips show a typical, intrinsic luminescence that we exploit to track the plasmon resonance modeled by a Lorentzian oscillator. Our experimental device is based on a spectrometer optically coupled to an atomic force microscope used in tuning fork mode. Our measurements provide evidence of a strong optical coupling between the tip and the surface. We demonstrate that this coupling strongly affects the luminescence (Intensity, wavelength and FHWM) as a function of the tip position in 2D maps. The fluctuation of these parameters is directly related to the plasmonic properties of the gold surface and is used to qualify the optical near field enhancement (which subsequently plays the predominant role in surface enhanced spectroscopies) with a very high spatial resolution (typically around 20 nm). We compare these findings to the independently recorded near-field scattered elastic Rayleigh signal.
Birds preying on lizards in Qatar

description: A collaborative study of an international team of researchers provides the first evidence that shrike birds prey on lizards in Qatar. Shrikes are passerine birds belonging to the genus Lanius, which behave similarly to birds of prey. Unlike raptors, however, shrikes do not have the strong talons needed for tearing up flesh. They overcome this by impaling their prey with sharp objects such as barbed wire, cacti, and thorns. This serves to immobilize and kill their prey, and aids feeding and storage of food. It also advertises territory ownership to other shrikes as well as the male’s prowess to potential mates. There are 29 shrike species worldwide, many of which prey on invertebrates, but some of the larger species, such as L. meridionalis, the only species resident in Qatar, hunt a wide variety of vertebrates, including amphibians, reptiles, other birds and small mammals, including bats. A team of scientists from Qatar, Spain, Romania and France started in 2011 a preliminary inventory of lizards in Qatar and identified 21 different lizard species. While performing their field work near Al Jassasiya in north-eastern Qatar, they found a live male Hadhramaut sand lizard (Mesalina adramitana) freshly impaled on a palm tree, approximately one-and-a-half metres above the ground. Although the researchers did not see the event directly, the presence of shrikes in nearby shrubs, together with the method of impalement, strongly suggests that the shrikes preyed on the lizard. Reports of shrikes preying on amphibians and reptiles come most often from North America and Europe. This is the first time this predatory behaviour has been reported in Qatar, and the authors also believe that theirs is the first report of this lizard species being hunted by shrikes. The researchers note that others have also found other rare and elusive skink lizards in the same condition, impaled on plants, or found their scattered body parts in kestrel pellets. They therefore suggest that searching for animals hunted by shrikes could be a useful way of keeping an inventory of rare and elusive species, and that this may help them to estimate how shrike predation affects vulnerable lizard communities in Qatar.Other InformationPublished in: QScience.com Highlights, Published by Nature Research for Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)

Creators: name: Welte, Angelika

Year: 2023

description: In recent years, the rise in digital payment innovations such as contactless cards and Interac
e-Transfer has spurred a discussion about the future of cash at the point of sale. The COVID19 pandemic has also contributed to this discussion: While consumers reported that some
merchants started to refuse cash early in the pandemic, such reported refusals dropped as the
pandemic progressed. The Bank of Canada’s most recent Merchant Acceptance Survey (MAS)
took place in 2018, prompting a need for updated data to study merchant cash acceptance,
payment trends and conditions for the potential issuance of a central bank digital currency
(Lane 2020, 2021a). Against this background, the Bank conducted the 2021–22 MAS Pilot Study
to monitor payment methods accepted by small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Survey
data was collected from merchants in two batches, in late 2021 and early 2022. Our results
show that 97% of SMBs in Canada accepted cash in 2021–22 and only 3% have plans to stop
accepting cash. For cards and digital payments, merchant acceptance has increased since 2018.
Additionally, the acceptance of different payment methods varies by the size of the merchant,
industry and region.
description: Ces dernières années, l’essor des nouveaux modes de paiement numériques comme les cartes
sans contact et Virement Interac MD a suscité un débat sur l’avenir de l’utilisation de l’argent
comptant aux points de vente. La pandémie de COVID-19 a également contribué à ce débat :
les consommateurs ont en effet indiqué que certains commerçants avaient commencé à refuser
l’argent comptant au début de la pandémie, mais le nombre de ces refus allégués ont diminué
à mesure que la pandémie évoluait. La dernière enquête que la Banque du Canada a réalisée
sur les modes de paiement acceptés par les commerçants remontait à 2018. Il était donc
nécessaire de disposer de données actualisées pour étudier l’acceptation de l’argent comptant
par les commerçants, les tendances en matière de paiement et les conditions qui justifieraient
l’émission éventuelle d’une monnaie numérique de banque centrale (Lane, 2020 et 2021a).
Dans ce contexte, la Banque a mené une nouvelle enquête sur les modes de paiement acceptés
par les commerçants en 2021 et 2022 afin de suivre l’évolution de l’acceptation des modes de
paiement par les petites et moyennes entreprises (PME). Les données de l’enquête ont été recueillies auprès des commerçants en deux fois : fin 2021 et début 2022. Nous constatons que
97 % des PME au Canada ont accepté des paiements en argent comptant en 2021-2022 et que
seulement 3 % d’entre elles prévoient ne plus le faire. L’acceptation des paiements par carte et
des paiements numériques a, quant à elle, augmenté depuis 2018. Enfin, le taux d’acceptation
des différents modes de paiement varie selon la taille des commerces, le secteur et la région.

description: Juvenile Court Statistics 2013 describes delinquency cases handled between 1985 and 2013 and petitioned status offense cases handled between 1995 and 2013 by U.S. courts with juvenile jurisdiction. National estimates of juvenile court delinquency caseloads in 2013 were based on analyses of 749,722 automated case records and court-level statistics summarizing an additional 44,219 cases. Estimates of status offense cases formally processed by juvenile courts in 2013 were based on analyses of 75,411 automated case-level records and court-level summary statistics on an additional 4,820 cases. The data used in the analyses were contributed to the National Juvenile Court Data Archive (the Archive) by more than 2,400 courts with jurisdiction over 84% of the juvenile population in 2013.

description: The ingestion and digestion of Escherichia coli by the ciliated protozoan, Tetrahymena thermophila, was investigated after an initial exposure to either water-soluble single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) or to carbon black (CB). Both SWNT and CB were internalised and visible in food vacuoles of ciliates. When presented with E. coli expressing green-fluorescent protein (GFP), these ciliates internalised bacteria as well. However, ciliates that had first internalised SWNT but not CB subsequently externalised or egested vesicle-like structures with fluorescent bacteria inside. These egested bacteria were viable and less susceptible than planktonic E. coli to killing either by the antibiotic, chloramphenicol or the disinfectant, glutaraldehyde. These results suggest that SWNT can alter the intracellular trafficking of vesicles within ciliates, leading to bacterial prey being packaged externally and protected for a time from environmental killing, which could have implications for sewage treatment and for public health.

description: In its resolution 2006/29 of 27 July 2006, the Economic and Social Council expressed concern at the high levels of violence against women and girls in many societies and drew attention to the need for ensuring effective and coordinated responses by the criminal justice system. The ECOSOC invited the Institutes comprising the United Nations Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice Programme Network (PNI) “to consider providing assistance, upon request, to Member States in the area of crime prevention and criminal justice responses to violence against women and girls, in cooperation with other relevant entities of the United Nations system, and to integrate the elimination of violence against women and girls into their training and technical assistance efforts, including their crime prevention activities”. In this framework and on the occasion of the Seventeenth Session of the United Nations Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice, the PNI has organized the workshop entitled “Eliminating Violence Against Women in the Field of Criminal Justice: Forms, Strategies and Tools”. The present publication includes the background papers of the workshop, collected and published by UNICRI in its role of PNI Coordinating Institute.

description: We realize a single particle microscope by using deterministically extracted laser cooled $^{40}$Ca$^+$ ions from a Paul trap as probe particles for transmission imaging. We demonstrate focusing of the ions with a resolution of 5.8$\;\pm\;$1.0$\,$nm and a minimum two-sample deviation of the beam position of 1.5$\,$nm in the focal plane. The deterministic source, even when used in combination with an imperfect detector, gives rise to much higher signal to noise ratios as compared with conventional Poissonian sources. Gating of the detector signal by the extraction event suppresses dark counts by 6 orders of magnitude. We implement a Bayes experimental design approach to microscopy in order to maximize the gain in spatial information. We demonstrate this method by determining the position of a 1$\,μ$m circular hole structure to an accuracy of 2.7$\,$nm using only 579 probe particles.

description: Testing truth-default theory, individual-level variation in lie frequency was parsed from within-individual day-to-day variation (good/bad lie days) by examining 116,366 lies told by 632 participants over 91 days. As predicted and consistent with prior findings, the distribution was positively skewed. Most participants lied infrequently and most lies were told by a few prolific liars. Approximately three-quarters of participants were consistently low-frequency liars. Across participants, lying comprised 7% of total communication and almost 90% of all lies were little white lies. About 58% of the variance was explained by stable individual differences with approximately 42% of the variance attributable to within-person day-to-day variability. The data were consistent with both the existence of a few prolific liars and good/bad lie days.

description: The use of nanostructured silica (SiO2) particles is no longer restricted to biomedical and (bio-) technological fields but rather finding applications in products of the food industry. Thus, our studies on the toxicological relevance of SiO2 nanoparticles focused on cytotoxic effects, the modulation of the cellular redox status and the impact on DNA integrity in human colon carcinoma cells (HT29). The results indicate that these SiO2 nanoparticles stimulate the proliferation of HT29 cells, depending on the incubation time and the particle size. The cytotoxicity of the investigated SiO2 nanoparticles was found to depend on the concentration, size and on the FCS content of the culture medium. Furthermore, SiO2 seem to interfere with glutathione biosynthesis. The results indicate further that effects of SiO2 NPs are not mediated by oxidative stress but by interference with the MAPK/ERK1/2 as well as the Nrf2/ARE signalling pathways. Additionally, investigations regarding DNA integrity revealed no substantial (oxidative) DNA damage.

description: We present Hubble WFC3/IR slitless grism spectra of a remarkably bright $z\gtrsim10$ galaxy candidate, GN-z11, identified initially from CANDELS/GOODS-N imaging data. A significant spectroscopic continuum break is detected at $λ=1.47\pm0.01~μ$m. The new grism data, combined with the photometric data, rule out all plausible lower redshift solutions for this source. The only viable solution is that this continuum break is the Ly$α$ break redshifted to ${z_\mathrm{grism}=11.09^{+0.08}_{-0.12}}$, just $\sim$400 Myr after the Big Bang. This observation extends the current spectroscopic frontier by 150 Myr to well before the Planck (instantaneous) cosmic reionization peak at z~8.8, demonstrating that galaxy build-up was well underway early in the reionization epoch at z>10. GN-z11 is remarkably and unexpectedly luminous for a galaxy at such an early time: its UV luminosity is 3x larger than L* measured at z~6-8. The Spitzer IRAC detections up to 4.5 $μ$m of this galaxy are consistent with a stellar mass of ${\sim10^{9}~M_\odot}$. This spectroscopic redshift measurement suggests that the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will be able to similarly and easily confirm such sources at z>10 and characterize their physical properties through detailed spectroscopy. Furthermore, WFIRST, with its wide-field near-IR imaging, would find large numbers of similar galaxies and contribute greatly to JWST's spectroscopy, if it is launched early enough to overlap with JWST.
