description: High-redshift clusters of galaxies show an over-abundance of spirals by a factor of 2-3, and the corresponding under-abundance of S0 galaxies, relative to the nearby clusters. This morphological evolution can be explained by tidal interactions with neighboring galaxies and with the hierarchically growing cluster halo. The efficiency of tidal interactions depends on the size and structure of the cluster, as well as on the epoch of its formation. I simulate the formation and evolution of Virgo-type clusters in three cosmologies: a critical density model Omega_0=1, an open model Omega_0=0.4, and a flat model Omega_0=0.4 with a cosmological constant. The orbits of identified halos are traced with a high temporal resolution (~10^7 yr). Halos with low relative velocities merge only shortly after entering the cluster; after virialization mergers are suppressed. The dynamical evolution of galaxies is determined by the tidal field along their trajectories. The maxima of the tidal force do not always correspond to closest approach to the cluster center. They are produced to a large extent by the local density structures, such as the massive galaxies and the unvirialized remnants of infalling groups of galaxies. Collisions of galaxies are intensified by the substructure, with about 10 encounters within 10 kpc per galaxy in the Hubble time. These very close encounters add an important amount (10-50%) of the total heating rate. The integrated effect of tidal interactions is insufficient to transform a spiral galaxy into an elliptical, but can produce an S0 galaxy. Overall, tidal heating is stronger in the low Omega_0 clusters.

description: For a FRW-spacetime coupled to an arbitrary real scalar field, we endow the solution space of the associated Wheeler-DeWitt equation with a Hilbert-space structure, construct the observables, and introduce the physical wave functions of the universe that admit a genuine probabilistic interpretation. We also discuss a proposal for the formulation of the dynamics. The approach to quantum cosmology outlined in this article is based on the results obtained within the theory of pseudo-Hermitian operators.

description: Investigating incentives, through valuation context and questions, that motivate respondents to reveal their true values for environmental good under consideration has been a long-standing area of research in stated preference literature. A large number of previous non-market valuation studies have focused on various dimensions of valuation questions and context and have investigated how these dimensions affect the incentives to answer truthfully. An important, but relatively less-explored, area is the inclusion of a provision rule, by which environmental good under investigation will be provided, and how this affects participants’ incentives to tell the true values. Provision rules, that are made explicit to survey respondents, provide a connection between survey choices and actual outcomes. Advancements in Mechanism Design Theory have recently attracted researchers’ attention on examining alternative provision rules using discrete choice experiments (DCE) and comparing preferences and tradeoffs across provision rules. Only very few studies,mostly in laboratory experiments, have attempted to examine the influence of the inclusion of a provision rule in elicited preferences and tradeoffs. Employing a split-sample approach, this study compares a single decision-maker’s choice and a plurality vote provision rules in in-person choice experiments using real cash for actual implementation of ecosystem restoration project on the ground. A very preliminary conditional logit model results suggest that both rules produce statistically similar preference functions in terms of marginal values and tradeoffs between restoration attributes. Further analysis is yet to be conducted to ensure these preliminary results hold consistently using a Latent Class Model to incorporate preference heterogeneity for ecosystem restoration.

description: The data management concept of the CRC/TR 32 'SVA-Patterns' (Curdt et al. 2008, 2010) offers a perfect tool to store and manage the data of an interdisciplinary research project. The focus here is on data management of soil (S), vegetation (V) and atmosphere (A) data for SVA-modelling purpose for a distinct watershed, the Rur-Catchment in Western Germany. The presented paper reflects the possibility and the adapting steps to transfer the concept to another interdisciplinary project. However, the technical transfer of the framework of the database is evident but the system needs to be adapted to the requirements of the benefit project. The Collaborative Research Centre (CRC) 806 'Our Way to Europe' performs a totally different investigation question and area, to capture the major intercontinental and transcontinental events of dispersal of modern man from Africa to central Europe. Therefore, other data formats and data amount occurs and other demands on the data management system are made. The paper identifies three spheres of action to adapt the concept to the CRC 806. (i) The integration of external databases to afford both, the transfer of data to other data management systems and to provide an interface to allow requests of external databases. (ii) The visualization of 3D-data in a web mapping application. (iii) The possibility for external and internal users to use geoprocessing tools to perform analysis based on the geodata in a web mapping application.

Dynamical Evolution of Galaxies in Clusters

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Tidal forces acting on galaxies in clusters lead to a strong dynamical evolution. In order to quantify the amount of evolution, I run self-consistent N-body simulations of disk galaxies for a variety of models in the hierarchically forming clusters. The tidal field along the galactic orbits is extracted from the simulations of cluster formation in the Omega_0=1; Omega_0=0.4; and Omega_0=0.4, Omega_Lambda=0.6 cosmological scenarios. For large spiral galaxies with the rotation speed of 250 km/s, tidal interactions truncate massive dark matter halos at 30 +- 6 kpc, and thicken stellar disks by a factor 2 to 3, increasing Toomre's parameter to Q > 2 and halting star formation. Low density galaxies, such as the dwarf spheroidals with the circular velocity of 20 km/s and the extended low surface brightness galaxies with the scale length of 10-15 kpc, are completely disrupted by tidal shocks. Their debris contribute to the diffuse intracluster light. The tidal effects are significant not only in the core but throughout the cluster and can be parametrized by the critical tidal density. The tidally-induced evolution results in the transformation of the infalling spirals into S0 galaxies and in the depletion of the LSB population. In the low Omega_0 cosmological models, clusters form earlier and produce stronger evolution of galaxies.

description: Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPSs) have been enacted in 29 states in the US, in part to encourage an increase in the amount of electricity generated from renewable sources. Biomass can be utilized in a dedicated bio-power plant to generate electricity, co-fired with coal at an existing power plant, or used to produce cellulosic ethanol that also yields co-product electricity. Considering these options along with a detailed national model of agricultural biomass production allows for the simulation of the effect of existing policies on electricity based biomass demand. Using a multi-period, multi-market, price endogenous model of the U.S. agricultural, electricity, and transportation sectors, the effect of existing state-level RPS is evaluated along with the implications for the agriculture sector. It is found that RPSs increase generation from both biomass and wind-based electricity generation, while decreasing the amount of generation from natural gas, and coal. Due to the co-product electricity generation a greater amount of electricity is generated from biomass under the RFS & RPS scenario than the RPS scenario even though biomass prices are higher.

description: Many studies find that areas more dependent on natural resources grow more slowly – a relationship known as the resource curse. For counties in the south-central U.S., I find little evidence of an emerging curse from greater natural gas production during the 2000s. Increases in population mitigated a rise in average compensation and crowding out of the non-mining sector. Each gas-related mining job created a little more than two jobs, indicating a neutral effect on resource dependence as measured by employment. Furthermore, changes in the adult population by education level reveal that greater production did not lead to a less educated population.

description: We have searched for the baryon-containing radiative penguin decays B^- -> Λp-bar γand B^- -> Σ^0 p-bar γ, using a sample of 9.7 million BBbar events collected at the Υ(4S) with the CLEO detector. We find no evidence for either, and set 90% confidence level upper limits for photons with B rest frame energy greater than 2.0 GeV of [Br(B^- -> Λp-bar γ) + 0.3 Br(B^- -> Σ^0 p-bar γ)] < 3.3 x 10^-6, [Br(B^- -> Σ^0 p-bar γ) + 0.4 Br(B^- -> Λp-bar γ)] < 6.4 x 10^-6. From the latter, we estimate (for photons with B rest frame energy greater than 2.0 GeV) Br(B -> X_s γ, X_s containing baryons) < 3.8 x 10^-5. This limit implies upper limits on corrections to CLEO's recent measurement of branching fraction, mean photon energy, and variance in photon energy from b -> s γthat are less than half the combined statistical and systematic errors quoted on these quantities.

description: Context. The composition of a protoplanetary disk at a given location does not only depend on temperature and pressure but also on the time dependent transport of matter, such as radial drift of solid bodies, which could release water and other volatile species before disintegration or accretion onto a larger body with potentially considerable implications for the composition of planets. Aims. We perform a parameter study focused on the water depletion of different sized bodies able to cross the water snowline by gas induced radial drift. Methods. Either the analytical Hertz-Knudsen-Langmuir sublimation formula assuming equilibrium temperature within the body or a more involved, numerical model for the internal thermal evolution is coupled with an alpha-disk model. Different properties of the disk and the embedded body are explored. Results. Bodies with radii up to 100 meter drift faster towards the central star than the water snowline, hence, cross it. The region that can be reached before complete disintegration - and is therefore polluted with H2O ice - extends to 10 percent closer to the star than the snowline location. The extent of this polluted region could be multiple times larger in the presence of a dust mantle, which is, however, unlikely to form due to frequent collisions with smaller-than centimeter sized objects. Conclusions. Given a significant abundance of meter sized boulders in protoplanetary disks, the transport of water by radial drift of these bodies towards regions closer to the star than the snowline is not negligible and this flux of volatiles can be estimated for a given distribution of solid body sizes and compositions. A simple expression for surface sublimation is applicable for a homogeneous body consisting of only dust and water ice without a dust mantle.

description: We study how increases in wealth from the appreciation of U.S. farmland influenced farm proprietor decisions to borrow, buy land, and expand. Exploiting periods of high and low appreciation that caused different increases in wealth for proprietors owning a larger or smaller share of their farmland, we find that each dollar increase in paper wealth led younger proprietors to increase real-estate-secured borrowing by 48 cents. Land purchases accompanied the increase in borrowing, supporting the view that collateral-based lending may be contributing to the recent run-up in farmland prices. We find no effect of land wealth on production or acres harvested.

Risk and Uncertainty

description: In response to economic and environmental concerns, Water-Recycling Technologies (WRT) have been developed to reduce water consumption and surface run-off in horticultural operations. Water recirculation provides the potential for water conservation and may also reduce grower costs in the long run. However, WRT comes with increased risk of disease from water-borne pathogens such as Pythium and Phytophthora, which can cause devastating plant losses. In addition, WRT entail infrastructure investment costs to capture, treat, and recirculate water. These cost and disease concerns dissuade some growers from adopting WRT. More information is needed about producers’ irrigation and disease management practices and their attitudes toward containment and recirculation of irrigation runoff. A mail survey was administered in February 2013 to horticultural nursery growers in Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. Information was gathered about the firm and respondents’ demographic characteristics, plus production, irrigation, and disease management practices. The survey incorporates a choice experiment analyzing willingness to accept water recycling based upon hypothetical disease outbreak and water shortage probabilities and associated percentage cost increases. This information is related to the respondent’s recycling choices using a conditional logit model to evaluate the effects of disease probability, drought probability, and water recirculation cost on producers’ willingness to adopt waterrecycling technologies.

Polarimetric variations of binary stars. V. Pre-main-sequence spectroscopic binaries located in Ophiuchus and Scorpius

description: We present polarimetric observations of 7 pre-main-sequence (PMS) spectroscopic binaries located in the rho Oph and Upper Sco star forming regions (SFRs). The average observed polarizations at 7660A are between 0.5% and 3.5%. After estimates of the interstellar polarization are removed, all binaries have an intrinsic polarization above 0.4%. Two binaries, NTTS162814-2427 and NTTS162819-2423S, present high levels of intrinsic polarization between 1.5% and 2.1%. All 7 PMS binaries have a statistically variable or possibly variable polarization. Combining these results with our previous sample of binaries located in the Tau, Aur and Ori SFRs, 68% of the binaries have an intrinsic polarization above 0.5%, and 90% of the binaries are polarimetrically variable or possibly variable. NTTS160814-1857, NTTS162814-2427, and NTTS162819-2423S are clearly polarimetrically variable. The first two also exhibit phase-locked variations over ~10 and ~40 orbits respectively. NTTS160905-1859 shows periodic variations that are not phased-locked and only present for short intervals of time. The amplitudes of the variations reach a few tenths of a percent. The high-eccentricity system NTTS162814-2427 shows single-periodic variations, in agreement with our previous numerical simulations. Non-periodic events introduce stochastic noise that partially masks the periodic variations and prevents the Brown, McLean, & Emslie (1978) formalism from finding a reasonable estimate of the inclination.

description: We report on the analysis of B band imaging data of 57 low-redshift QSOs and Seyfert 1 galaxies selected from the Hamburg/ESO-Survey, for which host galaxy dependent selection biases are greatly reduced compared to other optical surveys. Only one object in the sample is known to be radio-loud. We adopted a procedure to remove the AGN contribution by subtracting a scaled point spread functions from each QSO image. To reclaim the integrated host galaxy flux we correct for oversubtraction based on simulations. This method shows to be quite insensitive to the host galaxy morphological type, which we can unambiguously established for 15 of the 57 objects. The quasar host galaxies are detected in all cases. The hosts are very luminous, ranging in absolute magnitude M_B from -19.0 to -23.8, with an average of M_B,gal = -21.5, considerably above L* for field galaxies. For the luminous QSO subsample with M_B < -23 the average host absolute magnitude is M_B,gal = -23.0, while for the complementary low-luminosity AGN we get M_B,gal = -21.2, roughly equal to L*. The luminous host galaxies in the sample are typically approx. 1 mag brighter than expected when inferring B band luminosities from studies of similar objects at longer wavebands. We argue that this mismatch is not likely to be explained by selection effects, but favor host galaxy colours significanlty bluer than those of inactive galaxies. Although published B band data are scant, this result and the findings of other authors are in good agreement.

description: This thesis explores narratives of displacement from Donbas, Ukraine as a series of multispecies ruptures. Focusing on human-plant relations in oral histories of internally displaced persons (IDPs), it foregrounds more-than-human aspects of migration. Engaging with theories in environmental humanities, the thesis examines them through a decolonial lens. Critical of tendencies to orientalise Eastern Europe and post-Soviet countries as spaces of ecological disasters, with Chornobyl being one of the most famous examples, this dissertation avoids fixating on the catastrophic by focusing on everyday (re)configurations of ruptured multispecies relations instead. Donbas is a (post)industrial region in the east of Ukraine, where a war broke out in 2014. Soviet industrialism and ongoing conflict resulted in extractivist treatment of Donbas and its human and more-than-human inhabitants. Closely examining legacies and repercussions of these violences, the thesis traces accounts alternative to the dominant representations of war, industrialisation and displacement. These accounts resist fossilfuelisation, a process of being turned into a resource by the industry or the war-machine. Stories analysed in this thesis subvert objectification by treating the Other, whether human or more-than-human, with care and attention. For example, the thesis looks at personal stories of engaging with coal and fossils, as well as at testimonies of moving plants from the conflict zone, or memories of encountering overgrown gardens and wilted houseplants in homes abandoned because of the war. The form of the dissertation, consisting of academic writing, drawings, and a screenplay, presents a decolonial approach to knowledge-making. The thesis presents a more ethical way of engaging with research, where the outcomes are disseminated in different languages (English, Ukrainian; visual, academic) and to different audiences (academic, non-academic), thereby destabilising hierarchies of knowledge production.

description: An extraordinarily efficient mechanism, operating at high laser intensities and powers, is identified for spectral transferring huge laser energies to shorter ultraviolet and x-ray wavelengths. With megajoule laser energies currently available at near-optical wavelengths, this transfer would enable megajoule x-ray lasers, a huge advance over the millijoules x-ray pulses produced now.

description: We report on the design, production, and testing of advanced double-sided silicon strip detectors under development at the Max-Planck-Institute as part of the Medium Energy Gamma-ray Astronomy (MEGA) project. The detectors are designed to form a stack, the "tracker," with the goal of recording the paths of energetic electrons produced by Compton-scatter and pair-production interactions. Each layer of the tracker is composed of a 3 x 3 array of 500 micron thick silicon wafers, each 6 cm x 6 cm and fitted with 128 orthogonal p and n strips on opposite sides (470 micron pitch). The strips are biased using the punch-through principle and AC-coupled via metal strips separated from the strip implant by an insulating oxide/nitride layer. The strips from adjacent wafers in the 3 x 3 array are wire-bonded in series and read out by 128-channel TA1.1 ASICs, creating a total 19 cm x 19 cm position-sensitive area. At 20 degrees C a typical energy resolution of 15-20 keV FWHM, a position resolution of 290 microns, and a time resolution of ~1 microsec is observed.

description: Global numerical simulations of protoplanetary disk formation and evolution were conducted in thin-disk limit, where the model included magnetically layered disk structure, a self-consistent treatment for the infall from cloud core as well as the smallest possible inner computational boundary. We compared the evolution of a layered disk with a fully magnetically active disk. We also studied how the evolution depends on the parameters of the layered disk model - the MRI triggering temperature and active layer thickness - as well as the mass of the prestellar cloud core. With the canonical values of parameters a dead zone formed within the inner $\approx$ 15 au region of the magnetically layered disk. The dead zone was not a uniform structure and long-lived, axisymmetric, gaseous rings ubiquitously formed within this region due to the action of viscous torques. The rings showed a remarkable contrast in the disk environment as compared to a fully magnetically active disk and were characterized by high surface density and low effective viscosity. Multiple gaseous rings could form simultaneously in the dead zone region which were highly dynamical and showed complex, time-dependent behavior such as inward migration, vortices, gravitational instability and large-scale spiral waves. An increase in MRI triggering temperature had only marginal effects, while changes in active layer thickness as well as the initial cloud core mass had significant effects on the structure and evolution of the inner disk. Dust with large fragmentation barrier could be trapped in the rings, which may play a key role in planet formation.

description: Most existing AU detection works considering AU relationships are relying on probabilistic graphical models with manually extracted features. This paper proposes an end-to-end deep learning framework for facial AU detection with graph convolutional network (GCN) for AU relation modeling, which has not been explored before. In particular, AU related regions are extracted firstly, latent representations full of AU information are learned through an auto-encoder. Moreover, each latent representation vector is feed into GCN as a node, the connection mode of GCN is determined based on the relationships of AUs. Finally, the assembled features updated through GCN are concatenated for AU detection. Extensive experiments on BP4D and DISFA benchmarks demonstrate that our framework significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods for facial AU detection. The proposed framework is also validated through a series of ablation studies.

description: Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) are rare and life-threatening skin adverse reactions that are usually induced by drugs. This study aimed to assess the association between methotrexate and SJS/TEN when combined with furosemide. Data on suspicious, interactions (PS, SS, I) from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System database for 2016–2021 were analyzed using the reporting odds ratio (ROR), information component (IC), proportional reporting ratio (PRR) and the Medications and Health Care Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). We identified 28 case reports of TEN associated with the combination of furosemide and methotrexate and 10 reports of SJS associated with furosemide and methotrexate. The association of methotrexate with SJS/TEN was more significant in the entire data set when combined with furosemide than when methotrexate was not combined with furosemide. The association of methotrexate with SJS/TEN remained significant when furosemide was combined with methotrexate in a tumor-based disease context. After sensitivity analysis of the entire dataset as well as all antineoplastic drug datasets, consistent results were observed for TEN. Our study confirmed a significant association between methotrexate and SJS/TEN when combined with furosemide, with an increased risk of SJS/TEN.

description: We used the time correlation of shadowgraph images to determine the angle $Θ$ of the horizontal component of the plume velocity above (below) the center of the bottom (top) plate of a cylindrical Rayleigh-Bénard cell of aspect ratio $Γ\equiv D/L = 1$ ($D$ is the diameter and $L \simeq 87$ mm the height) in the Rayleigh-number range $7\times 10^7 \leq R \leq 3\times 10^{9}$ for a Prandtl number $σ= 6$. We expect that $Θ$ gives the direction of the large-scale circulation. It oscillates time-periodically. Near the top and bottom plates $Θ(t)$ has the same frequency but is anti-correlated.
