description: We present the results from ALMA observations of [NII]205 micron, [CII]158 micron, and [OII]88 micron lines in an unlensed submillimeter galaxy at z=4.3, COSMOS-AzTEC-1, hosting a compact starburst core with an effective radius of 1 kpc. The [CII] and [NII] emission are spatially-resolved in 0.3 arcsec-resolution (1 kpc in radius). The kinematic properties of the [NII] emission are consistent with those of the CO(4-3) and [CII] emission, suggesting that the ionized gas feels the same gravitational potential as the associated molecular gas and photodissociation regions (PDRs). On the other hand, the spatial extent is different among the lines and dust continuum: the [CII] emitting gas is the most extended and the dust is the most compact, leading to a difference of the physical conditions in the interstellar medium. We derive the incident far-ultraviolet flux and the hydrogen gas density through PDR modeling by properly subtracting the contribution of ionized gas to the total [CII] emission. The observed [CII] emission is likely produced by dense PDRs with nH(PDR)=10^(5.5-5.75) cm^-3 and G0=10^(3.5-3.75) in the central 1 kpc region and nH(PDR)=10^(5.0-5.25) cm^-3 and G0=10^(3.25-3.5) in the central 3 kpc region. We have also successfully measured the line ratio of [OIII/[NII] in the central 3 kpc region of COSMOS-AzTEC-1 at z=4.3, which is the highest redshift where both nitrogen and oxygen lines are detected. Under the most likely physical conditions, the measured luminosity ratio of L([OIII])/L([NII])=6.4+-2.2 indicates a near solar metallicity with Zgas=0.7-1.0 Zsol, suggesting a chemically evolved system at z=4.3.

Cost effective closure plan management for metal mines

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia

description: High closure costs have been incurred by some mines because of the failure to identify and mitigate conditions which require costly remediation on mine closure. Contaminant leaching, commonly acid rock drainage (ARD), is often a major cause of high closure costs. Planning for closure allows the remediation requirements to be anticipated sufficiently early so that the most cost effective measures can be designed and incorporated into the mine plan. Furthermore, the current regulatory trend is to bring closure costs into the operating period of a mine through some type of financial assurance or bonding requirement. The most cost effective closure plan will be the one which provides the lowest net present value of closure costs which achieves the required level of site rehabilitation on closure. This paper describes an approach to developing a cost effective mine development and closure plan. A summary of the current thinking on the main issues and control technologies for mine closure is presented.

description: We consider the problem of computing the maximal invariant set of discrete-time black-box nonlinear systems without analytic dynamical models. Under the assumption that the system is asymptotically stable, the maximal invariant set coincides with the domain of attraction. A data-driven framework relying on the observation of trajectories is proposed to compute almost-invariant sets, which are invariant almost everywhere except a small subset. Based on these observations, scenario optimization problems are formulated and solved. We show that probabilistic invariance guarantees on the almost-invariant sets can be established. To get explicit expressions of such sets, a set identification procedure is designed with a verification step that provides inner and outer approximations in a probabilistic sense. The proposed data-driven framework is illustrated by several numerical examples.

description: Liquid water has been proved to be an excellent medium for specimen structure imaging by a scanning electron microscope. Knowledge of electron-water interaction physics and particularly the secondary electron yield is essential to the interpretation of the imaging contrast. However, very little is known up to now experimentally on the low energy electron interaction with liquid water because of certain practical limitations. It is then important to gain some useful information about electron emission from water by a Monte Carlo (MC) simulation technique that can numerically model electron transport trajectories in water. In this study, we have performed MC simulations of electron emission from liquid water in the primary energy range of 50 eV-30 keV by using two different codes, i.e. a classical MC (CMC) code developed in our laboratory and the Geant4-DNA (G4DNA) code. The calculated secondary electron yield and electron backscattering coefficient are compared with experimental results wherever applicable to verify the validity of physical models for the electron-water interaction. The secondary electron yield vs. primary energy curves calculated by the two codes present the same generic curve shape as that of metals but in rather different absolute values. G4DNA yields the underestimated absolute values due to the application of one step thermalization model by setting a cutoff energy at 7.4 eV so that the low energy losses due to phonon excitations are omitted. Our CMC calculation of secondary electron yield is closer to the experimental data and the energy distribution is reasonable. It is concluded that a full dielectric function data at low energy loss values below 7.4 eV shall be employed in G4DNA model for the modeling of low energy electrons.

 MATERIAL EXAMINED: MHNG-INVE-38439; one male, pieces of a male and two females from Crotophaga ani Linnaeus, 1758, small intestine; Paraguay, Santa Maria, 28.10.1982.
 COMMENTS: The proboscis armature of the specimens from C. ani, 32 longitudinal rows of 7-8 + 3-5 + 6-7, a total of 16-19 hooks per row, was consistent with that of C. guira. The armature of C. guira was described as 32 rows of 8-9 + 4 + 6, 18-19 hooks, although study of the photomicrograph, fig. 1b suggests that there are 5 transitional hooks in some rows (Lunaschi & Drago, 2010). The morphology and morphometrics of the specimens from C. ani, with the exception of the neck length, were also consistent with those of C. guira (see Table 3). The relevant photomicrograph, fig. 1a, given by Lunaschi & Drago (2010), is not clear although careful scrutiny suggests the neck length is more likely to be about 205-255, a measurement consistent with that of the specimens from C. ani, than the 30-68 given in the text. Examination of the male specimens in this study suggest that the genital pore is terminal as stated in Lunaschi & Drago (2010). In the photomicrograph fig. 1e (Lunaschi & Drago, 2010), however, the genital pore appears subterminal. In females the posterior end of the trunk is swollen and the genital pore is subterminal. Figures 5-12 are given here for C. guira to show the trunk shape and the relative proportions and positions of the internal organs because they were not illustrated in the original description.
 The geographical range of C. guira has been extended from Argentina to Paraguay and the host range from Guira guira (Gmelin, 1788) to Cryptopgaga ani, both belonging to the cuckoo family, Cuculidae.

description: The targeted organisms include mosquito vectors, bacterial pathogens and non-targeted organisms. Preliminary mosquito larvicidal activity was conducted using cell-free supernatants (CFSs) from 11 gut bacteria. Among them, the bacterium SS11 exhibited promising results and was identified as Kurthia gibsonii based on its 16S rRNA sequence (1350 bp). The diethyl ether extract (DEE) of K. gibsonii demonstrated significant larvicidal effects, with LC50 values of 5.59 µL/mL and 8.59 µL/mL for 3rd instar larvae of Aedes aegypti and 2nd instar larvae of Anopheles stephensi, respectively. Analysis of the DEE using FT-IR, and GC-MS revealed the presence of 16 functional groups, and 7 bioactive compounds, respectively. A molecular docking study identified GC-MS compounds against odorant receptors from A. aegypti and odorant-binding proteins from A. stephensi was performed to assess the interaction and binding affinity. Overall, these findings suggest that the bioactive compounds 2, 4, 6-tribromoaniline from the DEE of K. gibsonii hold potential as an environmentally compatible alternative for biocontrol purposes, and compounds 9-tricosene and didecyl phthalate can be used for mosquito traps.

description: In an era marked by the relentless advancement of the transportation industry, logistics distribution centers have evolved into pivotal hubs for the turnover, sorting, storage, warehousing, and distribution processing of commodities. These centers represent integral components of the entire logistics chain, linking directly with terminal sales customers. They span procurement, warehousing, transportation, and information services, collectively forming a cohesive business model designed to meet the precise logistics experience expectations of customers. Moreover, they serve as the linchpins that overcome temporal and spatial constraints inherent in the intricate flow of goods. The strategic positioning of logistics distribution centers assumes paramount significance in determining the profitability of logistics companies. A miscalculation in this regard can unleash a series of detrimental repercussions, consuming substantial human and material resources during subsequent logistics activities. Consequently, the meticulous selection of logistics center locations forms the crux of decision-making processes for logistics distribution centers. In light of the imperative task of determining the optimal location for logistics distribution centers, this paper introduces a novel approach. Specifically, we propose a logistics distribution center planning method designed around the utilization of the particle swarm optimization algorithm. This innovative approach aims to enhance both the efficiency and accuracy of identifying the optimal location for distribution centers. By harnessing the computational prowess of this algorithm, we endeavor to propel the logistics industry into an era of enhanced precision, cost-effectiveness, and customer satisfaction.

For fields above the first critical field, but below the Bean's field for first penetration H*, M is symmetric with respect to $θ=π$ and the magnetization curves for forward and backward rotation coincide. For H>H* the curves are asymmetric and they do not coincide. These phenomena have a simple explanation in the framework of the Bean critical state model.

 Saticula coriaria is a northern African species (Boulard, 1981), which has been listed for Switzerland tentatively but erroneously by Fieber (1876) and later by Nast (1972). The confusion started with “ Cicada violacea,die Blaue” reported from Geneva by Fuesslin (1775) and referring to Cicada violacea Linné, 1758 which is actually not a European species. Boulard (1981) demonstrated in detail that several authors concluded erroneously the two taxa mentioned to be in synonymy.Weare unable to speculate to which species Fuesslin was referring to.

description: National environmental objectives have led to the development of government policies that create incentives for businesses to invest in renewable energy. These policies, increasingly affordable renewable energy and storage technology have aligned to deliver both economic benefits to farmers and co-benefits to the environment in on- and off-grid scenarios. This analysis aims to determine the economic feasibility of renewable and innovative energy systems to assist in reducing grid electricity cost for irrigation pumps and small industrial applications. Using a case study approach, optimal engineering and economic assessment are applied on a farm characterised by energy consumption in three different scales and usage patterns; sporadic large seasonal use, uniform industrial use and small-scale industrial use. The case study farm’s electricity demand and pricing agreements were assessed and entered into the Hybrid Optimisation of Multiple Energy Resources design software to analyse a range of hypothetical microgrid installations. A major aspect of the study is the connectivity between Government incentives, tariff uncertainty and the electricity retailers’ rules regarding feed-in-tariffs and network connection criteria. While the challenge of aligning seasonal demand with renewable energy supply remains, the cost competitiveness of solar energy proves a realistic supplementary source for grid-connected agricultural loads where year-round utilisation rates are high. Of each of the case study sites evaluated in this paper, the highest returning economic and environmental business case occurred where the modelled micro-grid included photovoltaic (PV) and remained eligible for a Feed-in-tariff – enabling revenue creation out-of-season. Those larger PV systems exceeding the export limit of 30kW still showed a lower cost of energy than the grid, however, where a diesel genset was included to avoid peak tariffs, carbon emission abatement was negligible. Designing optimal engineering solutions to reduce on-farm energy costs is heavily dependent on awareness of current carbon and energy policy incentives, as well as the changing landscape of connection rules and feed-in-tariffs.

Long term support of provision of information and assistance in better decision making are worthwhile policy options for responding to drought and other uncertainties.

description: Amidst increasing academic interest in “post-human” war technologies of surveillance and targeting, my dissertation conversely examines the ramifications of militarizing human beings as cultural technologies in wartime. I claim that “local” intermediaries are hired as embodied repositories of cultural knowledge to produce the soldier as an “insider” within the warzone. I focus on Iraqi former interpreters and contractors during the 2003 Iraq War who currently work as cultural role-players in pre-deployment simulations in the United States. In a new contribution to scholarship on war, my ethnography is staged within mock Middle Eastern villages constructed by the U.S. military across the woods and deserts of America to train soldiers deploying to the Middle East. Among mock mosques and markets, Iraqi role-players train U.S. soldiers by repetitively pretending to mourn, bargain, and die like the wartime adversary, ally, or proxy soldier they enact. Employed by the U.S. military in the post 9-11 “Cultural Turn” as exemplars of their cultures but banished to the peripheries as traitors by their own countrymen, and treated as potential spies by U.S. soldiers, these wartime intermediaries negotiate complex relationships to the referent as they simulate war.
      In my dissertation, I investigate the epistemological and affective dimensions of this wartime trend, as wartime intermediaries embody culture for training soldiers, but not on their own terms.

description: Tychobythinus Ganglbauer, 1896
 Tychobythinus Ganglbauer, 1896: 170; type species: Bythinus ottonis Ganglbauer, 1896 (subsequent designation).
 Acanthobythus Normand, 1930: 163; type species: Bythoxenus araneipes Normand, 1930 (monotypy).
 Ceratobythus Normand, 1932: 15; type species: Bythoxenus monoceros Normand, 1932 (monotypy) syn. nov.
 COMMENTS: Normand in 1930 and 1932, described respectively Acanthobythus and Ceratobythus as new subgenera of Bythoxenus Motschulsky, 1860. Jeannel (1956) raised Acanthobythus to genus rank, arguing that it was certainly a distinct lineage from both his Anopsibythus Jeannel, 1956 (erected to accommodate five anophthalmous Algerian species and presently a synonym of Tychobythinus) and Ceratobythus, and « also completely unrelated » to Bythoxenus.
 In both, the World catalogue of the genera of Pselaphinae (Newton & Chandler, 1989) and Pselaphinae in the Catalogue of Palaearctic Coleoptera (Löbl & Besuchet, 2004), Ceratobythus is listed as a valid while Acanthobythus is a synonym of Tychobythinus. The latter placement has however never been discussed, neither A. araneipes explicitly transferred.
 Acanthobythus and Ceratobythus share with the 89 species-rich Holarctic genus Tychobythinus the pronotal and elytral foveal systems, as well as most other external characters, such as the antennal scape much longer than wide, narrowed and flattened at basal third and widest at distal third, the maxillary palpi with segments II and III bearing many prominent tubercles and the apical segment distinctly longer than wide and widest at basal third, and prominent tubercles on the anterior margin of protrochanters and profemora. In fact Acanthobythus and Ceratobythus differ from each other and from members of Tychobythinus only by head features. The conformation of their aedeagi also fits within the variation observed in Tychobythinus. Therefore, we consider that there is no justification to maintain them as distinct genera.

description: In this paper we construct a sequence of eigenfunctions of the ``quantum Arnold's cat map'' that, in the semiclassical limit, show a strong scarring phenomenon on the periodic orbits of the dynamics. More precisely, those states have a semiclassical limit measure that is the sum of 1/2 the normalized Lebesgue measure on the torus plus 1/2 the normalized Dirac measure concentrated on any a priori given periodic orbit of the dynamics. It is known (the Schnirelman theorem) that ``most'' sequences of eigenfunctions equidistribute on the torus. The sequences we construct therefore provide an example of an exception to this general rule. Our method of construction and proof exploits the existence of special values of Planck's constant for which the quantum period of the map is relatively ``short'', and a sharp control on the evolution of coherent states up to this time scale. We also provide a pointwise description of these states in phase space, which uncovers their ``hyperbolic'' structure in the vicinity of the fixed points and yields more precise localization estimates.

Stochastic Ion Acceleration by the Ion-cyclotron Instability in a Growing Magnetic Field

description: Using 1D and 2D particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of a plasma with a growing magnetic field $\vec{B}$, we show that ions can be stochastically accelerated by the ion-cyclotron (IC) instability. As $\vec{B}$ grows, an ion pressure anisotropy $p_{\perp,i} > p_{||,i}$ arises, due to the adiabatic invariance of the ion magnetic moment ($p_{||,i}$ and $p_{\perp,i}$ are the ion pressures parallel and perpendicular to $\vec{B}$). When initially $β_i = 0.5$ ($β_i \equiv 8πp_i/|\vec{B}|^2$, where $p_i$ is the ion isotropic pressure), the pressure anisotropy is limited mainly by inelastic pitch-angle scattering provided by the IC instability, which in turn produces a non-thermal tail in the ion energy spectrum. After $\vec{B}$ is amplified by a factor $\sim 2.7$, this tail can be approximated as a power-law of index $\sim 3.4$ plus two non-thermal bumps, and accounts for $2-3\%$ of the ions and $\sim 18\%$ of their kinetic energy. On the contrary, when initially $β_i =2$, the ion scattering is dominated by the mirror instability and the acceleration is suppressed. This implies that efficient ion acceleration requires that initially $β_i \lesssim 1$. Although we focus on cases where $\vec{B}$ is amplified by plasma shear, we check that the acceleration occurs similarly if $\vec{B}$ grows due to plasma compression. Our results are valid in a sub-relativistic regime where the ion thermal energy is $\sim 10\%$ of the ion rest mass energy. This acceleration process can thus be relevant in the inner region of low-luminosity accretion flows around black holes.

description: Timely reperfusion after a myocardial infarction is necessary to salvage the ischemic region; however, reperfusion itself is a major contributor to the final tissue damage. Currently, there is no clinically relevant therapy available to reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury. While many drugs have shown promise in reducing ischemia-reperfusion injury in preclinical studies, none of these drugs have demonstrated benefit in large clinical trials. Part of the failure to translate therapies can be attributed to the reliance on small animal models for preclinical studies. While animal models encapsulate the complexity of the systemic in vivo environment, they do not fully recapitulate human cardiac physiology.
      In this thesis, we utilized cardiac tissue engineering methods in conjunction with cardiomyocytes derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells, to establish a biomimetic human tissue-engineered model of ischemia-reperfusion injury. The resulting cardiac constructs were subjected to simulated ischemia or ischemia-reperfusion injury in vitro. We demonstrated that the presence of reperfusion injury can be detected and distinguished from ischemic injury. Furthermore, we demonstrated that we were able to detect changes in reperfusion injury in our model following ischemic preconditioning, modification of reperfusion conditions, and addition of cardioprotective therapeutics. This work establishes the utility of the human tissue model in studying ischemia-reperfusion injury and the potential of the human tissue platform to help translate therapeutic strategies into the clinical setting.
Human, Social and Cultural Capital Predictors of Early Baby Boomer Productivity in Mid- to Late Life: An Examination of Formal Volunteering Behavior

description: Productive activity supports successful aging by helping to maintain older adults' cognitive and physical functioning and active engagement in life.  This study examines the human, social and cultural resources that contribute to productive activity, specifically formal volunteering, among Early Baby Boomers (EBB) during the transition from mid-life to late life.  Four time points across 6 years from a sample of 2,684 EBBs aged 51 and older from the Health and Retirement Study (2004-2010) were analyzed using logistic regression and generalized estimating equations.  Baseline and longitudinal human, social and cultural capital factors and demographic variables functioned as predictors of formal volunteer engagement and its intensity.  High levels of cultural capital, defined as religiosity, significantly increased the likelihood of both formal volunteer engagement and high intensity volunteering.  Greater human capital and some forms of social capital also boosted the probability of volunteer engagement, but higher levels of one component of social capital (paid employment) significantly reduced the likelihood of high intensity volunteering.  Volunteer engagement and intensity were stable during the observed period, in spite of the Great Recession during the latter waves of data.  Gender appeared to have no effect on the likelihood of volunteer engagement or intensity.  The distribution of human, social and cultural resources was associated with differences in mid- to late life productivity among EBBs, and productive activities of formal volunteering and paid employment appear to compete for their time.  Exploring the unique contributions of aspects of education and religion to volunteerism in future research may lead to more inclusive public policy and programs that facilitate the participation of individuals from a wider array of backgrounds.  Such efforts can increase opportunities for formal volunteering among persons transitioning from mid- to late life.
Study on Application of Machine Learning Approaches in Digital Image Processing

Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: Digital Image Processing (DIP) is a very interesting and challenging research area for researchers and scientists. Broadly, DIP refers to the use of several algorithmic approaches to perform processing on digital images for specific tasks. DIP has a  wide range of applications such as image classification, segmentation, visualization, information extraction, pattern recognition, etc. Machine Learning (ML) has become one of the most widely used artificial intelligence techniques for several applications. ML algorithms can interpret images the same way our brains do. It plays an important role to study the behaviour of data and process it to provide the required output to the users. The ML techniques are extended to deep learning (DL) approaches to extend the input size and hardware configuration, and process in an optimized manner in the current scenario. ML techniques can be mainly classified as supervised and unsupervised ML techniques. In this work, an attempt has been made to solve five DIP problems using ML based approaches. These problems are mainly focused on the alzheimer disease, breast ultrasound, tomato leaf disease, weather analysis, and human face with mask and without mask. Finally, simulations have been performed to implement and evaluate the performance of ML based models such as Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, Support Vector Machine, Neural Network, Random Forest, Naive Bayes, etc. along with the hybridized model to validate the work.
Stability of a Nonequilibrium Interface in a Driven Phase Segregating System

description: We investigate the dynamics of a nonequilibrium interface between coexisting phases in a system described by a Cahn-Hilliard equation with an additional driving term. By means of a matched asymptotic expansion we derive equations for the interface motion. A linear stability analysis of these equations results in a condition for the stability of a flat interface. We find that the stability properties of a flat interface depend on the structure of the driving term in the original equation.

description: “What does it mean to be a person in the world?” has been a question that initiated this study with young people in an alternative-to-detention afterschool program. I used a participatory ethnographic approach to explore how a group of young people identify themselves by negotiating the labels placed on them. This study engaged with the philosophical reflections of Du Bois’s double consciousness and Greene’s continuous being to offer a conceptual framework of multi-consciousness. This multi-consciousness framework offered a way to examine young people’s geographical, ideological, linguistic, social, economical, and other representational boundaries. Similar to the intrinsically intertwined banyan tree, young people's lives intertwined through their demographic identities, their involvement in the digital and physical spaces, and their status in the justice system. The data for the study were collected through a participatory ethnographic approach using traditional ethnographic methods, such as conducting interviews, making participant observant, and co-producing artifacts with young people. These artifacts provided insight into the intricate relationships of how young people practice everyday citizenship in their daily lives. This study called for the embodiment of humane citizenship that included young people—particularly those in the juvenile justice system—to engage not as ornamental collaborators, but rather as genuine contributors who shape how we freely include and participate across the multiple networks in which we live and exist.

Assuming realistic values for the parameters R and C, both in the high- and in the low-Tc case the power is large enough to allow the operation of such a device in applications.
