title: Linking source to sink in active rifts: Insights from the Gulf of Corinth, Greece
Creators: name: Whittaker, Alexander
Publisher: name: Deutsche Geologische Gesellschaft - Geologische Vereinigung e.V. (DGGV)
Year: 2023

description:
The volume and grain-size of sediment supplied from catchments fundamentally control basin stratigraphy. Despite this, few studies have constrained sediment budgets and grain-size exported into an active rift and compared this to the characteristics of depositional stratigraphy. Here, we use the Gulf of Corinth as a natural laboratory to quantify the controls on sediment export within an active rift. We measured the hydraulic geometries, surface grain-sizes of channel bars and full-weighted grain-size distributions of river sediment at the mouths of multiple catchments draining the rift, which constitute 83% the Gulf’s drainage area. Results show that grain-size increases westward along the southern coast of the Gulf and that median and coarse-fraction of the sieved grain-size distribution are primarily controlled by bedrock lithology, with late Quaternary uplift rates exerting a secondary control. We also demonstrate that the median and coarse-fraction of the grain-size distribution are predominantly transported in bedload; however, typical sand-grade particles are transported as suspended load at bankfull conditions, suggesting disparate source-to-sink transit timescales for sand and gravel. Using this data, we derive both a Holocene sediment budget and a grain-size specific bedload discharged into the Gulf of Corinth using the grain-size measurements and previously published estimates of sediment fluxes and volumes. Finally, we demonstrate that at the scale of individual fault blocks, these sedimentary signals fundamentally control the nature of basin deposition, including the characteristics and architectures of hangingwall Gilbert deltas. Our results therefore highlight the importance of linking geomorphic and stratigraphic approaches in areas of active extension.
Electromagnetic surface modes in a magnetized quantum electron-hole plasma

Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)

description: The propagation of surface electromagnetic waves along a uniform magnetic field is studied in a quantum electron-hole semiconductor plasma. A new forward propagating mode, not reported before, is found by the effect of quantum tunneling, which otherwise does not exist. In the classical limit ($\hbar\rightarrow 0$) one of the low-frequency modes is found similar to an experimentally observed one in $n$-type InSb at room temperature. The surface modes are shown to be significantly modified in the case of high-conductivity semiconductor plasmas where electrons and holes may be degenerate. The effects of the external magnetic field and the quantum tunneling on the surface wave modes are discussed.

SYMMETRIES AND BLACK HOLESIN N = 2GAUGED SUPERGRAVITY
Creators: name: RABBIOSI, MARCO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2018

description: The main goal of this work is to explore the role and the power of the Hamilton-Jacobi approach and solutions generating techniques to search black hole solutions in abelian gauged supergravity theories. After a brief introduction explaining how supergravity arises as effective theory of superstrings, a chapter is devoted to the detailed description of N = 2 abelian gauged supergravity in d = 4 and d = 5. The study of the equations of motion with general matter coupling for static black hole solutions is developed with Hamilton-Jacobi approach and new first order sets of equa- tions are presented [1, 2] extending well-known BPS sets [3, 4]. In d = 5 the equations are completely solved for the STU model with constant hypermultiplets and a solution generalizing Maldacena-Nunez black string [4] is found [5]. Then the attention is focused on some integrability properties of minimal gauged super- gravity in d = 4 [6] and Einstein-Maxwell-Lambda system in d dimensions [7]. Always with Hamilton-Jacobi technique, studying the symmetries of the systems the dynamics is solved algebraically for some sets of solutions. For holographic calculations the attractor points deserve particular attention and there- fore I explain their definition for the cases AdS 2 � ? 2 and AdS 3 � ? 2 and the calculation of the entropy and the central charge in general matter coupled supergravities. More- over, Freudenthal duality is extended to the abelian gauged case and general matter coupling [8]. The last part is dedicated to the introduction of a solution generating technique based on group theory in FI d = 4 supergravity. Many examples with the simplest prepotentials are shown [9]. With the help of dimensional reduction this solution generating technique is used to produce a rotating black string in d = 5 [5].

description:
Changing climatic conditions cause alluvial rivers to aggrade and incise, which can result in the formation of multi-generational fluvial terrace sequences. Such records can be used to investigate past interactions between climatic conditions and the fluvial system and to predict channel responses to future climatic change. To accurately assess such interactions, precise dating of terrace sequences is vital. However, established methods such as 10Be exposure dating are costly and time intensive. Thus, they are impractical for application to spatially extensive areas and for establishing patterns of along-stream aggradation or incision.

An alternative approach of dating fluvial terraces is based on the degradation of the slope (riser) between successive terraces by down-slope sediment transport. Here we present a tool for analyzing high-resolution elevation profiles across alluvial terrace risers and inferring their age since abandonment, based on linear and nonlinear hillslope diffusion models. We extend this workflow to the analysis of DEM-derived riser profiles that can provide a greater spatial extent and resolution than GNSS profiles or exposure ages. A set of 10Be exposure ages dating back to ca. 1 Myr from terraces around the Río Santa Cruz, Patagonia is used for calibration and to test the method’s viability. Preliminary results highlight the importance of post-abandonment riser disturbances and variability in hillslope sediment-transport rates.

This technique provides a low-cost, spatially extendable way of dating fluvial terraces and analyzing landscape dynamics in fluvial systems. We are currently preparing to release an open-source Python package for performing these analyses.

description: We present the results of CO (J=3-2) and CO (J=1-0) mapping observations toward the active cluster forming clump, L1688, in the rho Ophiuchi molecular cloud. From the CO (J=3-2) and CO (J=1-0) data cubes, we identify five outflows, whose driving sources are VLA 1623, EL 32, LFAM 26, EL 29, and IRS 44. Among the identified outflows, the most luminous outflow is the one from the prototypical Class 0 source, VLA 1623. We also discover that the EL 32 outflow located in the Oph B2 region has very extended blueshifted and redshifted lobes with wide opening angles. This outflow is most massive and have the largest momentum among the identified outflows in the CO (J=1-0) map. We estimate the total energy injection rate due to the molecular outflows identified by the present and previous studies to be about 0.2 L_solar, larger than or at least comparable to the turbulence dissipation rate [~(0.03 - 0.1) L_solar]. Therefore, we conclude that the protostellar outflows are likely to play a significant role in replenishing the supersonic turbulence in this clump.

description:
Throughout history, humans have modified the landscape by farming, extracting natural resources, and deforestation. However, it is not fully understood to what extent such activities have changed vegetation structures and potentially caused accelerated soil erosion. In this study, we investigate the effects of human activities on vegetation and erosion rate changes on the island of Elba, Italy. Previous geoarchaeological studies succeeded in reconstructing human-environmental interaction in the past and providing an independent reference frame for the current study. Hence, we hypothesize that intense iron production on Elba since the 6th century BCE, first by Etruscans, and later by Romans, was accompanied by deforestation and thereby caused increased soil erosion. To test our hypothesis, we collected sediment samples from modern streams and from existing floodplain sediment cores to reconstruct the millennial-scale and more recent changes in landscape-scale erosion rates, and in vegetation and hydrology by means of leaf wax isotopes (d2H, d13C). We use in situ cosmogenic 10Be and 14C produced in quartz to obtain erosion rates. The different half-life of these two nuclides (~1.4 Myr for 10Be and ~5.7 kyr for 14C) makes them sensitive to changes in erosion rates that occur on human time scales. 10Be results indicate relatively uniform millennial-scale erosion rates on the order of 0.04 mm/yr across the eastern part of the island, where we collected most of the samples. We expect that the combination of these methods will reveal the impact and patterns of human-induced soil erosion in Elba.

description: We report on sensitive 1.4-GHz VLBI radio observations of the unusually luminous supernova remnant SNR 4449-1 in the galaxy NGC 4449, which gave us the first well-resolved image of this object. The remnant's radio morphology consists of two approximately parallel bright ridges, suggesting similarities to the barrel shape seen for many older Galactic supernova remnants or possibly to SN 1987A. The angular extent of the remnant is 65 x 40 mas, corresponding to (3.7 x 2.3) x 10^{18} (D/3.8 Mpc) cm. We also present a new, high signal-to-noise optical spectrum. By comparing the remnant's linear size to the maximum velocities measured from optical lines, as well as using constraints from historical images, we conclude that the supernova explosion occurred between ~1905 and 1961, likely around 1940. The age of the remnant is therefore likely ~70 yr. We find that SNR 4449-1's shock wave is likely still interacting with the circumstellar rather than interstellar medium.

description: We consider a simple model of quantum disorder in two dimensions, characterized by a long-range site-to-site hopping. The system undergoes a metal-insulator transition -- its eigenfunctions change from being extended to being localized. We demonstrate that at the point of the transition the eigenfunctions do not become fractal. Their density moments do not scale as a power of the system size. Instead, in one of the considered limits our result suggests a power of the logarithm of the system size. In this regard, the transition differs from a similar one in the one-dimensional version of the same system, as well as from the conventional Anderson transition in more than two dimensions.

description: Early disease detection is a prerequisite for early intervention. Urine is not subjected to homeostatic control, and therefore, it accumulates very early changes associated with disease processes, some of which may be used as biomarkers. Animal models must be used to identify urinary changes associated with very early stages of diseases to avoid potential interfering factors and obtain urine samples at a sufficiently early time point before pathological or clinical manifestations occur. We reviewed recent (from 2009–2020) urine proteome studies using animal models of many diseases. We focused on early changes in urine proteome of animal models, particularly changes occurring prior to alterations in blood tests, light microscopy observations and clinical manifestations. Additional studies relevant to the topic were also extracted from the references of the cited papers. Changes in the urine proteome at different disease stages and the ability of the urine proteome to differentiate among different animal models are also discussed in this review. Urine proteomes of animal models may reflect early changes that occur even before changes in blood parameters, light microscopy observations and clinical manifestations, suggesting the potential use of urinary biomarkers for the very early detection of human diseases.
Resisting the deliberative ideal : towards a pluralistic theory of oppositional democracy
Creators: name: Buffie, Jordan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Deliberation and resistance have long been theorized as crucial to democracy. Yet, political theorists have frequently described these two practices as being in tension, if not in outright conflict. “Activist” critiques of deliberative democracy have prompted an ongoing debate about the extent to which acts of protest and resistance can be integrated with theories of public deliberation. This thesis makes two contributions to this debate. First, I argue that deliberative democracy has attempted to reconcile resistance with deliberation by subordinating the former to the normative priority of the latter in ways that elide or categorically exclude crucial power-contesting practices. Second, I develop a provisional framework for thinking about the democratic value of resistance in more pluralistic terms so as to avoid construing resistance strictly in terms of its illocutionary force and deliberative consequences.

An Italian Estate in the US: The case of Watergate in Washington
Creators: name: Galasso, Giulio
Publisher: name: MIMESIS EDIZIONI
Year: 2023

description: Founded in 1862 and active until 1988, Società Generale Immobiliare has been one of the key actors of Italian post-war real estate development. Between 1945 and 1975, the company reached the peak of its activity and was managing independently the complete real estate process from the acquisition of the construction area to the sale of the apartments. To manage the whole construction process, SGI was employing a large number of professionals with different specializations, and it had an extensive network of regional offices that were involved in the actual realization of the buildings. Thanks to the possibility of controlling the whole production process, SGI could experiment with innovative solutions for construction systems, apartment layouts, and interaction with clients. At the same time, SGI collaborated also with leading architects in the realization of its most representative designs and created a privileged channel of knowledge transfer between highly skilled professionals and the mass production of housing. When in the 1960s’ the company reached a significant volume of affairs, it started to develop several buildings abroad, as in the case of Victoria Tower in Montreal, of the Las Palmas residential neighborhoods built in Mexico City, and of the office building in Avenue des Champs-Élysées in Paris. SGI was involved in the production of several projects also in the US, and this essay investigates in particular the Watergate estate in Washington D.C., a residential complex that was realized between 1962 and 1971 with the project of Luigi Moretti. Watergate has had an outstanding mediatic resonance, as it gave the name to the scandal that led the American president Richard Nixon to resign. At the same time, it represents one of the most important realizations of SGI, and it is proudly advertised through the publications of the company. In Watergate Moretti’s architectural investigation and SGI housing research converges in unprecedented buildings with curved volumes with a broad typological variety, and entrances articulated in several stories. Moreover, Watergate is also an example of collaboration between the Italian real estate developer and several American professionals, including the architect Milton Fischer, the engineers Heinman & Clifton, T.Y. Lin & Associates, and the landscape designer Boris Timchenko. Following an introduction on the organization of SGI abroad, this essay investigates how the design and construction of Watergate happened between Italy and the US, and it reflects on the influence that it had on the housing of both countries.

description: Recent observations of sunspot light-bridges have shed new light on the fact that they are often associated with significant chromospheric activity. In particular chromospheric jets (Shimizu et al. 2009) persisting over a period of days have been identifies, sometimes associated with large downflows at the photospheric level (Louis et al. 2009). One possible explanation for this activity is reconnection low in the atmosphere. Light-bridges have also been associated with a constant brightness enhancement in the 1600 angstroms passband of TRACE, and the heating of 1 MK loops. Using data from EIS, SOT and STEREO EUVI we investigate the response of the transition region and lower corona to the presence of a light-bridge and specific periods of chromospheric activity.

description: We calculate the coupling constants of the decay modes $1^{-+}\rightarrowρπ, f_1π, b_1π, ηπ, η'π, a_1π, f_1η$ within the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rule. Then we calculate the partial width of these decay channels, which differ greatly from the existing calculations using phenomenological models. For the isovector $1^{-+}$ state, the dominant decay modes are $ρπ, f_1π$. For its isoscalar partner, its dominant decay mode is $a_1π$. We also discuss the possible search of the $1^{-+}$ state at BESIII, for example through the decay chains $J/ψ(ψ')\to π_1 +γ$ or $J/ψ(ψ')\to π_1 +ρ$ where $π_1$ can be reconstructed through the decay modes $π_1\to ρπ\to π^+π^-π^0$ or $π_1\to f_1(1285)π^0$. Hopefully the present work will be helpful to the experimental establishment of the $1^{-+}$ hybrid meson.

description: We study the effect of dynamical tunneling on emission from ray-chaotic microcavities by introducing a suitably designed deformed disk cavity. We focus on its high quality factor modes strongly localized along a stable periodic ray orbit confined by total internal reflection. It is shown that dominant emission originates from the tunneling from the periodic ray orbit to chaotic ones; the latter eventually escape from the cavity refractively, resulting in directional emission that is unexpected from the geometry of the periodic orbit, but fully explained by unstable manifolds of chaotic ray dynamics. Experimentally performing selective excitation of those modes, we succeeded in observing the directional emission in good agreement with theoretical prediction. This provides decisive experimental evidence of dynamical tunneling in a ray-chaotic microcavity.

description: Der Beitrag thematisiert die konkreten Herausforderungen, die die sozialen Transformationsprozesse Digitalisierung und Inklusion für die Lehrkräftebildung erzeugen. Einerseits müssen zukünftigen Lehrkräften Kompetenzen vermittelt werden, um innovative digitale und inklusive Lernumgebungen gestalten zu können. Andererseits herrschen an den Schulen sehr unterschiedliche Rahmenbedingungen, die inklusive und digitale Unterrichtssettings beeinflussen. Berufspraktische Erfahrungen fallen daher sehr unterschiedlich aus und lassen kaum systematische Einsichten über den didaktischen und pädagogischen Mehrwert innovativer Ansätze zu. Letztlich scheitern diese in der berufspraktischen Ausbildungsphase häufig bereits an verfügbarer Technik oder an einer fehlenden adäquaten räumlichen Ausstattung. Im Beitrag thematisieren wir von dieser Problemlage ausgehend das Konzept des Lehr-Lern-Raumes Inklusion, indem Studierende auf innovative und flexibilisierte Lernszenarien vorbereitet werden. Am Beispiel des Gamification-Ansatzes wird dabei gezeigt, wie Inklusion und Digitalisierung sinnvoll als gemeinsame Themen der Lehrkräftebildung vermittelt werden können. Abstract This article addresses the concrete challenges that the social transformation processes of digitization and inclusion create for teacher education. On the one hand, the current structure of teacher training makes it difficult to consider digitization and inclusion as joint development tasks. On the other hand, schools have very different framework conditions that influence inclusive and digital teaching settings. Professional experience, therefore, varies greatly and hardly allows for systematic insights into the didactic and pedagogical added value of innovative approaches. Ultimately, these often fail in the practical training phase due to the availability of technology or the lack of an adequate spatial learning environment. In this article, we address the concept of teaching-learning space inclusion based on this problem situation by preparing students for innovative and flexible learning scenarios. Using the gamification approach as an example, we show how inclusion and digitalization can be meaningfully taught as common topics in teacher education.

description: Since 1860, the collection of the Wartburg Foundation in Eisenach has housed a small lute-like instrument that, based on the glued-in instrument label, is attributed to Hans Ott in Nuremberg, dated around 1450 and described as a gittern. This so-called Wartburg gittern has, to date, been considered to be one of the oldest surviving European plucked string instruments, is regularly mentioned in musicological literature and has often been ‘copied’ in the course of historical performance practice. Surprisingly, however, there has been neither a detailed study nor a comprehensive publication on this instrument. As part of a research project by the Swiss National Science Foundation at the Bern Academy of the Arts, the Wartburg gittern was re-examined in 2021. In addition to the direct analysis of the instrument, a three-dimensional model was created from numerous photographs using photogrammetry, a micro-computed tomography scan was carried out in collaboration with the Fraunhofer Development Center for X-ray Technology in Fürth, Bavaria (Fraunhofer-IIS/EZRT), a dendrochronological dating of the soundboard of the instrument was commissioned and new research into its provenance was undertaken. The most important findings are presented in this article.
The theory of planned behaviour and physical activity in pregnancy : exploring the moderating effect of antenatal depressive symptomology
Creators: name: Dhaliwal, Aneet
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Background: Pregnant individuals engage in less physical activity than their non-pregnant counterparts. Though, physical activity is encouraged during pregnancy, benefiting maternal/fetal health. Healthcare providers need better insight into the behaviours and factors that influence pregnant individuals’ ability to meet physical activity guidelines. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the physical activity intention and behaviours of pregnant individuals between 16 and 40 weeks gestation residing in British Columbia through the theory of planned behaviour constructs (i.e., attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioural control, and intention) while exploring the moderating role of antenatal depressive symptomology between physical activity intention and behaviour. Methods: The study design was non-experimental and cross-sectional, with data collection through an internet-based survey. Participants completed a questionnaire on demographic characteristics and validated measures related to physical activity, theory of planned behaviour constructs, and antenatal depressive symptomology. Descriptive statistics and bivariate Pearson’s correlation were used, with Pearson’s correlation additionally assessing potential control variables. Multiple hierarchical regression models were used to identify predictors of physical activity intention and behaviour, and antenatal depressive symptomology as a moderator between intention and behaviour. Results: Parity was included as a control variable, having a significant correlation with physical activity intention and behaviour. Pregnant individuals were found to have a positive intention, attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioural control for physical activity behaviour. The strongest predictor for physical activity intention was perceived behavioural control, followed by attitude. Individually, parity and subjective norm did not significantly influence physical activity intention. The final model explained 69% of the variance seen in physical activity intention. Pregnant individuals were found to have decreased physical activity behaviours. The strongest predictor for physical activity behaviour was parity, with no other predictors significantly contributing. The final model explained 22% of the variance seen in physical activity behaviour. Conclusion: Pregnant individuals had positive intentions to participate in physical activity behaviour, however, there may have been a potential ‘intention-behaviour gap’. Future research needs to explore other post-intention barriers for pregnant people. Physical activity is essential in keeping mothers and babies healthy, and healthcare providers need to consider strategies to bridge the potential gap.
Holographic phase space: $c$-functions and black holes as renormalization group flows

description: We construct a $\mathcal N$-function for Lovelock theories of gravity, which yields a holographic $c$-function in domain-wall backgrounds, and seemingly generalizes the concept for black hole geometries. A flow equation equates the monotonicity properties of $\mathcal N$ with the gravitational field, which has opposite signs in the domain-wall and black hole backgrounds, due to the presence of negative/positive energy in the former/latter, and accordingly $\mathcal N$ monotonically decreases/increases from the UV to the IR. On $AdS$ spaces the $\mathcal N$-function is related to the Euler anomaly, and at a black hole horizon it is generically proportional to the entropy. For planar black holes, $\mathcal N$ diverges at the horizon, which we interpret as an order $N^2$ increase in the number of effective degrees of freedom. We show how $\mathcal N$ can be written as the ratio of the Wald entropy to an effective phase space volume, and using the flow equation relate this to Verlinde's notion of gravity as an entropic force. From the effective phase space we can obtain an expression for the dual field theory momentum cut-off, matching a previous proposal in the literature by Polchinski and Heemskerk. Finally, we propose that the area in Planck units counts states, not degrees of freedom, and identify it also as a phase space volume. Written in terms of the proper radial distance $β$, it takes the suggestive form of a canonical partition function at inverse temperature $β$, leading to a "mean energy" which is simply the extrinsic curvature of the surface. Using this we relate this definition of holographic phase space with the effective phase space appearing in the $\mathcal N$-function.

description: Abstract Nowadays the demand for practical food like snacks increases worldwide, however the nutritional value in most these formulations is reduced. Due to its chemical composition with high protein concentration, the microalga Spirulina has been used on the production of enriched foods. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of Spirulina sp. LEB 18 addition on snacks formulations and extrusion conditions on the physicochemical and structural properties of snacks. Protein concentration and physical properties such as expansion index, bulk density, hardness, water absorption index, water solubility index and color were determined. The results showed that the addition of Spirulina sp. LEB 18, temperature in the last zone of the extruder and feed moisture influenced the product responses. The increase in feed moisture increased the hardness, bulk density and water absorption index of the snacks. Higher concentrations of microalga produced snacks with higher protein content, total color difference (ΔE) and compact structure. The addition of 2.6% Spirulina produced snacks with up to 11.3% protein and with adequate physical and structural properties for consumption. Thus, snacks containing Spirulina are an alternative to the demand for healthy food of practical consumption.

description: The transition density $n_t$ and pressure $P_t$ at the inner edge between the liquid core and the solid crust of a neutron star are analyzed using the thermodynamical method and the framework of relativistic nuclear energy density functionals. Starting from a functional that has been carefully adjusted to experimental binding energies of finite nuclei, and varying the density dependence of the corresponding symmetry energy within the limits determined by isovector properties of finite nuclei, we estimate the constraints on the core-crust transition density and pressure of neutron stars: $0.086 \ {\rm fm}^{-3} \leq n_t < 0.090 \ {\rm fm}^{-3}$ and $0.3\ {\rm MeV \ fm}^{-3} < P_t \leq 0.76 \ {\rm MeV \ fm}^{-3}$.

description: Rainbow connection number rc(G) of a connected graph G is the minimum number of colours needed to colour the edges of G, so that every pair of vertices is connected by at least one path in which no two edges are coloured the same. In this paper we show that for every connected graph G, with minimum degree at least 2, the rainbow connection number is upper bounded by γ_c(G) + 2, where γ_c(G) is the connected domination number of G. Bounds of the form diameter(G) \leq rc(G) \leq diameter(G) + c, 1 \leq c \leq 4, for many special graph classes follow as easy corollaries from this result. This includes interval graphs, AT-free graphs, circular arc graphs, threshold graphs, and chain graphs all with minimum degree at least 2 and connected. We also show that every bridge-less chordal graph G has rc(G) \leq 3.radius(G). In most of these cases, we also demonstrate the tightness of the bounds. An extension of this idea to two-step dominating sets is used to show that for every connected graph on n vertices with minimum degree δ, the rainbow connection number is upper bounded by 3n/(δ + 1) + 3. This solves an open problem of Schiermeyer (2009), improving the previously best known bound of 20n/δ by Krivelevich and Yuster (2010). Moreover, this bound is seen to be tight up to additive factors by a construction of Caro et al. (2008).

description: We describe a simple Zeeman slower design using permanent magnets. Contrary to common wire-wound setups no electric power and water cooling are required. In addition, the whole system can be assembled and disassembled at will. The magnetic field is however transverse to the atomic motion and an extra repumper laser is necessary. A Halbach configuration of the magnets produces a high quality magnetic field and no further adjustment is needed. After optimization of the laser parameters, the apparatus produces an intense beam of slow and cold 87Rb atoms. With a typical flux of 1 - 5 \times 10^10 atoms/s at 30 ms^-1, our apparatus efficiently loads a large magneto-optical trap with more than 10^10 atoms in one second, which is an ideal starting point for degenerate quantum gases experiments.
