Feltia tricosa

description: 23. Feltia tricosa (Lintner)
(Figs. 28–29, Map 18)
 Identification: Forewing length 16.0–20.0 mm. Feltia tricosa is similar to F. subgothica in forewing color and pattern, but slightly larger. The apex of the spine­like setae of each antennal segment in the male of F. tricosa is curved and parallel with the longitudinal axis of the antenna. In contrast, the apex of the spine­like setae in males of F. subgothica is not curved and is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the antenna. Unlike F. subgothica, the hindwing in the male of F. tricosa is entirely dark; that of the female is darker than in F. subgothica.
 Flight period: Collected from mid­August to mid­September.
 Collected localities: North Carolina: Haywood Co., Purchase Knob at house; Swain Co., Big Cove Road site b, Ravensford. Tennessee: Blount Co., Cold Spring Gap; Cocke Co., Cosby campground area; Sevier Co., Park Headquarters, 6 mi S of Sugarlands Visitor Center. (10 specimens)
 MAP 18. Collecting localities of Feltia tricosa.
 Elevation range: 1480–4800 ft. (451–1463 m)
 General distribution: This is mainly an eastern North American species, distributed from southeastern Canada south to northern Georgia, and west to Kansas. There are two disjunct populations: one in central Texas and another in the western Great Plains of Montana (Lafontaine 2004).
 Larval hosts: Reported hosts are unreliable because of the similarity of the larva with those of F. jaculifera and F. subgothica (Lafontaine 2004).

description: The natural conditions of the individual sandstone regions of the Bohemian Cretaceous Basin are characterized focusing on flora and vegetation. For this survey, regions are geographically defined using the phytogeographic division of the Czech Republic; the parts of sandstone regions extended to Poland and Germany have been also included.
In the description of flora and vegetation, the volcanic patches were intentionally omitted because they are an independent source of biodiversity that barely interacts with the surrounding landscape. The given phytogeographical characteristics (sub-oceanic, sub-montane species, etc.) should be understood in the context of the Central European conditions, rather than absolutely. Plant communities are summarized in the appendix.

description: We use HI and H2 global gas measurements of galaxies from xGASS and xCOLD GASS to investigate quenching paths of galaxies below the star formation main sequence (SFMS). We show that the population of galaxies below the SFMS is not a 1:1 match with the population of galaxies below the HI and H2 gas fraction scaling relations. Some galaxies in the transition zone (TZ) 1-sigma below the SFMS can be as HI-rich as those in the SFMS, and have on average longer gas depletion timescales. We find evidence for environmental quenching of satellites, but central galaxies in the TZ defy simple quenching pathways. Some of these so-called "quenched" galaxies may still have significant gas reservoirs and be unlikely to deplete them anytime soon. As such, a correct model of galaxy quenching cannot be inferred with SFR (or other optical observables) alone, but must include observations of the cold gas. We also find that internal structure (particularly, the spatial distribution of old and young stellar populations) plays a significant role in regulating the star formation of gas-rich isolated TZ galaxies, suggesting the importance of bulges in their evolution.

description: Background: There is no clear consensus on the use of re-irradiation (reRT) in the management of locally recurrent rectal cancer (LRRC). The aim of the present study was to investigate all reRT administered for rectal cancer at a large referral institution and to evaluate patient outcomes and toxicity. Material and methods: All patients with rectal cancer were identified who had received previous pelvic radiotherapy (RT) and underwent reRT during 2006–2016. Medical records and RT details of the primary tumor treatments and rectal cancer recurrence treatments were registered, including details on reRT, chemotherapy, surgery, adverse events, and long-term outcomes. Results: Of 77 patients who received ReRT, 67 had previously received pelvic RT for rectal cancer and were administered reRT for LRRC. Re-irradiation doses were 30.0–45.0 Gy, most often given as hyperfractionated RT in 1.2–1.5 Gy fractions twice daily with concomitant capecitabine. The median time since initial RT was 29 months (range, 13–174 months). Of 36 patients considered as potentially resectable, 20 underwent surgery for LRRC within 3 months after reRT. Operated patients had better 3-year overall survival (OS) (62%) compared to those who were not operated (16%; HR 0.32, p = .001). The median gross tumor volume (GTV) was 107 cm3, and 3-year OS was significantly better in patients with GTV <107 cm3 (44%) compared to patients with GTV ≥107 cm3 (21%; HR 0.52, p = .03). Conclusion: Three-year survival was significantly better for patients who underwent surgery after reRT or who had small tumor volume. Prospective clinical trials are recommended for further improvements in patient selection, outcomes, and toxicity assessment.

Subjects: Computer Engineering

description: The aim of the paper is to offer an architectural framework to help in securing data sharing processes in the multi-cloud storage. For example, the paper highlights the ways of achieving a secure data sharing through the application of the cryptographic index-based data slicing techniques. It seeks to prevent malicious insider through data encryption using 3DES in every part of the file and RSA for the encryption of private key. In addition this work also enhances the privacy of secure data sharing using dynamic fileslicing in which customer can define the number of file parts to be slicedusing the framework interface. This architecture solves the key managementand key distribution problem. The proposed algorithm uses self-protectionor counter attack mechanism in order to safe guard cloud infrastructure frommalicious files. The cloud-storage of information is a security-intensiveprocess because a multi-cloud process entails a collection of storage servers.The framework only searches for the file in the multi-cloud server when thereceiver inputs the file name and the private key. Moreover, it is the only wayof accessing the file. This study focused on multi-cloud storage. The life cycleof the data involves three stages that include data input, transition, andusage. The report is more about cloud storage and transition. Theexperimental and numerical results shows the efficiency of the various fileformats and privacy gets increased through dynamic file slicing which in turnincreases the trustworthy of the customers. The data security increaseduring cloud-storage due to cryptographic and encryption techniques. Cloudstorage is important for the organization those who are doing online process.Therefore, it is benefit to them to access secure data storage and transferprocesses

description: International transfers and foreign capital inflow remains a significant source of capital to fragile state economies and developing economies in general. These transfers include but not limited to official development assistance (ODA), remittances and foreign direct investment (FDI) among others. The main objective of this study is to empirically investigate the interactions between capital flows (Remittances, FDI and ODA) in a fragile state using the case of Nigeria. The study tests for the complementarity or substitutability among these capital flows with the Autoregressive Distributive Lag (ARDL) estimation technique, using data over the period 1980 to 2015. The study found that remittances complement both FDI and ODA. Also, the study found that FDI and ODA are substitutes. However, after testing whether the level of economic development affects the interactions of capital flows, the study found that the complementarity and substitution vanishes as level of economic development progresses.

description: 2. Abagrotis alternata (Grote) Greater Red Dart (adult), Mottled Gray Cutworm (larva)
(Fig. 31, Map 20)
 Identification: Forewing length 15.0–20.0 mm. Abagrotis alternata can easily be confused with A. anchocelioides (Guenée). The best way to separate these species is by the coloration of the middle segment of the labial palpus compared to head coloration. In A. alternata the labial palp is dark reddish brown contrasting with the lighter cream to buff colored head. In A. anchocelioides the labial palp is reddish brown, concolorous with the head. Forewing ground color varies from brown to reddish brown with a lighter cream to tan contrasting terminal band. In darker brown specimens the contrasting terminal band is less evident. Orbicular spot is ovate, slightly darker than ground color, outlined in cream, and is angled at 45 o toward wing base. Hindwing is dark brown with a tan fringe.
 Flight period: Collected from June to mid­October.
 Collected localities: North Carolina: Haywood Co., Purchase Knob; Swain Co., Big Cove Road site b, Big Cove Road site c, Big Cove Road site p, Big Cove Road site w, Noland Creek. Tennessee: Blount Co., Cades Cove near Ranger Station, Cades Cove Primitive Baptist Church, Cold Spring Gap; Cocke Co., Cosby ATBI house, Foothills Parkway, Foothills Parkway 2 nd overlook East; Sevier Co., Greenbrier Ranger Station (40 specimens)
 Elevation range: 1700–4924 ft. (518–1501 m)
 General distribution: Widely distributed in North America across southern Canada from Nova Scotia to Alberta; in the eastern United States from Maine to North Carolina and Tennessee west from Mississippi to Texas, in the Northern Great Plains from North and South Dakota, Montana, and northeastern Wyoming, and in the Rocky Mountains from Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, and central Arizona (Lafontaine 1998).
 MAP 20. Collecting localities of Abagrotis alternata.
 Larval hosts: This is a polyphagous species and feeds on a number of agriculturally important crops such as apple (Malus sp., Rosaceae), cherry (Prunus avium (L.) L., Rosaceae), plum (Prunus sp., Rosaceae), strawberry (Fragaria sp., Rosaceae), hickory (Carya sp., Juglandaceae), walnut (Juglans sp., Juglandaceae), oak (Quercus sp., Fabaceae), cabbage (Brassica oleracea L., Brassicaceae), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L., Solanaceae), and potato (Solanum tuberosum L., Solanaceae). Larval populations usually are not sufficient to inflict economic damage, but occasionally the species is a serious pest of fruit trees and vegetable crops (Lafontaine 1998).

description: The high latitude translucent molecular cloud L1642 has been mapped in the J=1-0 and J=2-1 transitions of 12CO, 13CO and C18O using the SEST radio telescope. We have analysed the morphology and velocity structure of the cloud using the Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) method. The results show that L1642 is composed of a main structure at radial velocity 0.2 km/s while the higher velocity components at ~0.5 and 1.0 km/s form an incomplete ring around it, suggesting an expanding shell structure. Fainter emission extends to the north with a still higher velocity of up to 1.6 km/s. Such a velocity structure suggests an elongated morphology in the line of sight direction. The physical properties of the cloud have been investigated assuming LTE conditions, but non-LTE radiative transfer models are also constructed for the 13CO observations. We confirm that L1642 follows an r^-1 density distribution in its outer parts while the distribution is considerably flatter in the core. The cloud is close to virial equilibrium. In an Appendix the PMF results are compared with the view obtained through the analysis of channel maps and by the use of Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Both PMF and PCA present the observations as a linear combination of basic spectral shapes that are extracted from the data. Comparison of the methods shows that the PMF method in particular is able to produce a presentation of the complex velocity that is both compact and easily interpreted.

Self-Duality in the Context of the Skyrme Model

description: We study a recently proposed modification of the Skyrme model that possesses an exact self-dual sector leading to an infinity of exact Skyrmion solutions with arbitrary topological (baryon) charge. The self-dual sector is made possible by the introduction, in addition to the usual three SU(2) Skyrme fields, of six scalar fields assembled in a symmetric and invertible three dimensional matrix h. The action presents quadratic and quartic terms in derivatives of the Skyrme fields, but instead of the group indices being contracted by the SU(2) Killing form, they are contracted with the h-matrix in the quadratic term, and by its inverse on the quartic term. Due to these extra fields the static version of the model, as well as its self-duality equations, are conformally invariant on the three dimensional space R^3. We show that the static and self-dual sectors of such a theory are equivalent, and so the only non-self-dual solution must be time dependent. We also show that for any configuration of the Skyrme SU(2) fields, the h-fields adjust themselves to satisfy the self-duality equations, and so the theory has plenty of non-trivial topological solutions. We present explicit exact solutions using a holomorphic rational ansatz, as well as a toroidal ansatz based on the conformal symmetry. We point to possible extensions of the model that break the conformal symmetry as well as the self-dual sector, and that can perhaps lead to interesting physical applications.

description: Topological euclidean gravity is built in eight dimensions for manifolds with $Spin(7) \subset SO(8)$ holonomy. In a previous work, we considered the construction of an eight-dimensional topological theory describing the graviton and one graviphoton. Here we solve the question of determining a topological model for the combined system of a metric and a Kalb--Ramond two-form gauge field. We then recover the complete $N=1, D=8$ supergravity theory in a twisted form. We observe that the generalized self-duality conditions of our model correspond to the octonionic string equations.

description: The magnetization and magnetic ac susceptibility, $χ= χ' - i χ''$, of superferromagnetic systems are studied by numerical simulations. The Cole-Cole plot, $χ''$ vs. $χ'$, is used as a tool for classifying magnetic systems by their dynamical behavior. The simulations of the magnetization hysteresis and the ac susceptibility are performed with two approaches for a driven domain wall in random media. The studies are motivated by recent experimental results on the interacting nanoparticle system Co$_{80}$Fe$_{20}$/Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ showing superferromagnetic behavior. Its Cole-Cole plot indicates domain wall motion dynamics similarly to a disordered ferromagnet, including pinning and sliding motion. With our models we can successfully reproduce the features found in the experimental Cole-Cole plots.

description: 4. Abagrotis brunneipennis (Grote)
(Figs. 33–34, Map 22)
 Identification: Forewing length 14.0–17.0 mm. Abagrotis brunneipennis is similar to A. cupida (Grote) and the two frequently are confused in collections. Forewing ground color is dark reddish brown in A. brunneipennis and pale reddish brown to grayish brown in A. cupida. The overall forewing pattern is faint to virtually absent in A. brunneipennis; the pattern in A. cupida is more distinct. Orbicular and reniform spots are only slightly darker and faint in A. brunneipennis and are slightly to much darker in A. cupida. The cluster of black scales at the apex of the subterminal line on the costa is faint or absent in A. brunneipennis but prominent in most specimens of A. cupida. Hindwing is dark gray in A. brunneipennis and gray to dark gray in A. cupida. The overall look of A. brunneipennis has a shiny greasy sheen to the wings; in A. cupida the wings are dull.
 Flight period: June to July.

Non-identical particle correlations in 130 and 200 AGeV collisions at STAR

description: STAR has performed a correlation analyses of pion-kaon and pion-proton pairs for sqrt(s_NN)=130 AGeV and sqrt(s_NN)=200 AGeV and kaon-proton, proton-Lambda and pion-Cascade pairs for AuAu collisions sqrt(s_NN)=200 AGeV. They show that average emission space-time points of pions, kaons and protons are not the same. These asymmetries are interpreted as a consequence of transverse radial expansion of the system; emission time differences explain only part of the asymmetry. Therefore our measurements independently confirm the existence of transverse radial flow. Furthermore, correlations of strange hyperons is investigated by performing proton-Lambda and pion-Cascade analyses, giving estimates of source size at high m_{T}. The strong interaction potential between (anti-)proton and lambda as well as kaon and proton is investigated.

Places Between Spaces

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: The porch is a cultural trope which serves as a significant threshold - not only as a space of transition to pass through, but also an invitation to a convivial occasion. Although linked to an idealized past, the social structures that accompany this archetypal form suggests a broader discussion of the types of spaces that support a community and build social value. Places Between Spaces investigates the slightly bereft landscapes of St. Clair Avenue in Toronto, as places of opportunity for building social capital. Whether enveloped in for lease signs or awaiting redevelopment, there is a period when these spaces are left abandoned - stripped of material and human activity. How might these provisional spaces find a material expression? Structured around three sites characteristic of St. Clair's urban context, the proposed interventions deliberately engage the temporal framework in which they operate. These three provisional installations are intended to provide a catalyst that engages with the public realm, providing both a shelter and destination to the community.
Species-area relationships of plant communities and the possibility of predicting plant species diversity – a case study in South-Western Poland
Creators: name: Świerkosz, Krzysztof
Publisher: name: figshare

Subjects: subject: Botany

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: The main aim of this study was to consider the possibility of predicting the number of plant species in areas occupied by many different habitat types. A very simple mathematical model was proposed for this purpose. It is based on two fundamental assumptions: first – every single type of community has its own species-area model relationship, second – the number of species common to various types of habitats allometrically depends on the number of habitats and on their quality.
In order to test the proposed model, first the species-area relationships for single community types should be counted. Basic data were obtained from phytosociological tables published for SW Poland in 1960–2002. Each set of patches of a plant community, represented in one phytosociological table, was treated as one, compact habitat island of a size comparable to the joint acreage of the patches. The research covered all literature-documented plant communities from SW Poland – in all 750 phytosociological tables including 223 associations and plant communities.
The data on 173 syntaxa compiled in 667 tables were used in the analysis – the remaining tables were represented by insufficient numbers of syntaxa (fewer than five), or by insufficient number of phytosociological releves (three or fewer). The species-area relationship models for 57 types of communities were counted this way.
The next step involved substituting the results of the single SPAR models in the previously proposed -diversity allometric model. The model was tested on 13 different-sized and 18 equal-sized areas in SW. Poland using GIS tools. In both cases the differences between the actual and predicted number of plant species does not exceed 12%.
The consequences of the obtained results were discussed in the light of the main problems implied in the issue of species-area relationship.

description: The Isalo National Park is the fourth largest and one of the earliest protected areas in Madagascar. It was created in 1962, and covers an area of about 82 000 ha. The whole park (especially its southern section) is intensively managed by the local community and frequented by tourists. This may create many conflicts between the objectives of nature protection and human activities such as tourism, cattle grazing and gathering of useful plants. Although scientists frequently visit the area (comp. Andrew and Hawkins 1999; Nicoll and Langrand 1989), the fauna and flora of Isalo are still insufficiently described. There are no ecological papers related exclusively to the Isalo Massif (Andrew and Hawkins 1999), and thus all information should be useful for future study. That is why I have decided to present a short characteristic of the vegetation of this area, which summarises my observations carried out in January 2002.

description: Advocacy efforts, training and technical assistance by the International Household Survey Network and its partner agencies have lead in the past year to a broad adoption and use of the Microdata Management Toolkit by statistical agencies in several countries in the Africa, Asia and Latin America regions. This translates into improved data and metadata availability and wider use of the DDI as the global standard. This presentation will provide an update on the IHSN Toolkit and a preview of upcoming new features and tools.

description: We require that the primordial baryon asymmetry is not washed out in the seesaw model compatible with the recent results of WMAP and the neutrino oscillation experiments including the first results of KamLAND. We find that only the case of the normal neutrino mass hierarchy with an approximate $L_{e}$-symmetry satisfies the requirement. We further derive, depending on the signs of neutrino mass eigenvalues, three types of neutrino mass matrixes, where the values of each element are rather precisely fixed.

description: Proteins move and deform to ensure their biological functions. Despite significant progress in protein structure prediction, approximating conformational ensembles at physiological conditions remains a fundamental open problem. This paper presents a novel perspective on the problem by directly targeting continuous compact representations of protein motions inferred from sparse experimental observations. We develop a task-specific loss function enforcing data symmetries, including scaling and permutation operations. Our method PETIMOT (Protein sEquence and sTructure-based Inference of MOTions) leverages transfer learning from pre-trained protein language models through an SE(3)-equivariant graph neural network. When trained and evaluated on the Protein Data Bank, PETIMOT shows superior performance in time and accuracy, capturing protein dynamics, particularly large/slow conformational changes, compared to state-of-the-art flow-matching approaches and traditional physics-based models.

description: Unter Bezugnahme theoretischer Perspektiven zu postkolonialem Othering und diskursiven Grenzziehungen fragt dieser Beitrag nach den Un_Sichtbarmachungen und Ver-Anderungen von queeren Geflüchteten in Debatten um Sexarbeit, ‚Willkommenskultur‘ und Schutz. Anhand dieser drei Debatten werden diskursive Grenzziehungen entlang der Analysekategorie Un_Sichtbarmachungen unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Verschränkung von Queerness und Migration/Flucht herausgearbeitet. Deutlich wird, inwiefern queere Geflüchtete im Kontext von Sexarbeit (strategisch) unsichtbar gemacht und auf eine vulnerable Position festgeschrieben werden sowie sexuell-geschlechtliche Selbstbestimmung weitreichend determiniert oder gar aberkannt ist.

description: We consider cosmological solutions in 5d locally supersymmetric theories including boundary actions, with either opposite tension branes for identical brane chiralities or equal tension branes for flipped brane chiralities. We analyse the occurrence of supersymmetry breakdown in both situations. We find that supersymmetry as seen by a brane observer is broken due to the motion of the brane in the bulk. When the brane energy-momentum tensor is dominated by the brane tension, the 4d vacuum energy cosmological constant on the observable brane is positive and proportional to the inverse square of the brane local time. We find that the mass splitting within supersymmetric multiplets living on the brane is of the order of the inverse of the brane local time, examplifying the tight relation between the vacuum energy scale and the supersymmetry breaking scale.

description: Physical systems with complex unsteady dynamics, such as fluid flows, are often poorly represented by a single mean solution. For many practical applications, it is crucial to access the full distribution of possible states, from which relevant statistics (e.g., RMS and two-point correlations) can be derived. Here, we propose a graph-based latent diffusion (or alternatively, flow-matching) model that enables direct sampling of states from their equilibrium distribution, given a mesh discretization of the system and its physical parameters. This allows for the efficient computation of flow statistics without running long and expensive numerical simulations. The graph-based structure enables operations on unstructured meshes, which is critical for representing complex geometries with spatially localized high gradients, while latent-space diffusion modeling with a multi-scale GNN allows for efficient learning and inference of entire distributions of solutions. A key finding is that the proposed networks can accurately learn full distributions even when trained on incomplete data from relatively short simulations. We apply this method to a range of fluid dynamics tasks, such as predicting pressure distributions on 3D wing models in turbulent flow, demonstrating both accuracy and computational efficiency in challenging scenarios. The ability to directly sample accurate solutions, and capturing their diversity from short ground-truth simulations, is highly promising for complex scientific modeling tasks.

The role of the Internationl Household Survey Network and the Accelerated Data Program

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2007

description: International and bilateral agencies have invested considerable resources in supporting data collection activities in developing countries, with the main objective to generate data needed for the design, monitoring and assessment of development policies and programs. But the lack of data is still often invoked as a major obstacle to "managing for results". One reason is that many of the existing datasets remain unexploited. This presentation will provide an overview of the various causes -technical, legal, financial, institutional and others- and of the possible solutions to "unlock" the available data. The presentation will focus on the strategy being implemented by the International Household Survey Network (IHSN) and by the World Bank/OECD Accelerated Data Program (ADP) to assist developing countries in the establishment of proper national microdata archives.

description: A Quantified Model-Competition (QMC) mechanism for multi-scale flows is extracted from the integral (analytical) solution of the Boltzmann-BGK model equation. In the QMC mechanism, the weight of the rarefied model and the weight of the continuum (aerodynamic/hydrodynamic) model are quantified. Then, a Simplified Unified Wave-Particle method (SUWP) is constructed based the on the QMC mechanism. In the SUWP, the stochastic particle method and the continuum Navier-Stokes method are combined together. Their weights are determined by the QMC mechanism quantitatively in every discrete cells of the computational domain. The validity and accuracy of the present numerical method are examined using a series of test cases including the high non-equilibrium shock wave structure case, the unsteady Sod shock-tube case with a wide range of Kn number, the hypersonic flow around the circular cylinder from the free-molecular regime to the near continuum regime, and the viscous boundary layer case. In the construction process of the present method, an anti-dissipation effect in the continuum mechanism is also discussed.

description: The prebiotic history of phosphorus is a matter of debate in the scientific community: its origin, how it landed on Earth, the selective speciation of the phosphate, and its inclusion into the organic matrix are the main unsolved issues. In this regard, Schreibersite ((Fe,Ni)3P), a mineral present in iron meteorites, can play a fundamental role as a carrier of reactive P which, as a result of the weathering processes, produces oxygenated phosphorus compounds, even the phosphate among others. In the present paper, we studied the interaction of methanol (alone and mixed with water) with the Schreibersite surfaces throughout periodic density functional theory calculations at PBE level. The results indicate that Schreibersite promotes the deprotonation of methanol and water both from thermodynamic and kinetic points of view, thus enabling the first step towards corrosion. We have simulated advanced stages of the corrosion process up to the formation of the phosphate and the phosphorylated form of methanol (methyl phosphate), showing that the formation of both products is thermodynamically favoured, as well as its solubilization, which allows other water molecules to proceed with further corrosion of Schreibersite.
The 2004 Canadian National Consulation on Access to Scientific Research Data (NCASRD)

description: In mid-June 2004, an expert task Force, appointed by the National Research Council Canada (NRC) and chaired by Dr. David Strong, came together in Ottawa to plan a National Forum as the focus of the National Consultation on Access to Scientific Research Data.nbsp; The Forum brought together more than seventy leaders Canada-wide in research, data management, administration, intellectual property and other pertinent areas.nbsp; This presentation will be a comprehensive review of the issues, the opportunities and the challenges identified during the Forum.nbsp; Complex and rich arrays of scientific databases are changing how research is conducted, speeding the discovery and creation of new concepts.nbsp; Increased access will accelerate even more these changes, creating a whole new world.nbsp; With the combination of databases within and between disciplines and countries, fundamental leaps in knowledge will occur that will transform our understanding of life, the world and the universe.nbsp; The Canadian research community is concerned by the need to take swift action to adapt to the substantial changes required by the scientific enterprise and since no national data preservation organization exists, it is felt that a national strategy on data access or policies needs to be developed. It is also recommended that a Task Force be created to prepare a full national implementation strategy.nbsp; Once such a national strategy is broadly supported, it is proposed that a dedicated national infrastructure, tentatively called Data Canada, be established, to assume overall leadership in the development and execution of a strategic plan.

description: We considered the structure of steady-state plane-parallel radiative shock waves propagating through the partially ionized hydrogen gas of temperature T_1 = 3000K and density 1e-12 gm/cm^3 <= ρ_1 <= 1e-9 gm/cm^3. The upstream Mach numbers range within 6 <= M_1 <= 14. In frequency intervals of hydrogen lines the radiation field was treated using the transfer equation in the frame of the observer for the moving medium, whereas the continuum radiation was calculated for the static medium. Doppler shifts in Balmer emission lines of the radiation flux emerging from the upstream boundary of the shock wave model were found to be roughly one-third of the shock wave velocity. The gas emitting the Balmer line radiation is located at the rear of the shock wave in the hydrogen recombination zone where the gas flow velocity in the frame of the observer is approximately one-half of the shock wave velocity. The ratio of the Doppler shift to the gas flow velocity of 0.7 results both from the small optical thickness of the shock wave in line frequencies and the anisotropy of the radiation field typical for the slab geometry. In the ambient gas with density of ρ_1 >= 1e-11 gm/cm^3 the flux in the H-alpha frequency interval reveals the double structure of the profile. A weaker H-beta profile doubling was found for ρ_1 >= 1e-10 gm/cm^3 and U_1 <= 50 km/s. The unshifted redward component of the double profile is due to photodeexcitation accompanying the rapid growth of collisional ionization in the narrow layer in front of the discontinuous jump.
