description: Active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback operated by the expansion of radio jets can play a crucial role in driving gaseous outflows on galaxy scales. Galaxies hosting young radio AGN, whose jets are in the first phases of expansion through the surrounding interstellar medium (ISM), are the ideal targets to probe the energetic significance of this mechanism. In this paper, we characterise the warm ionised gas outflows in a sample of nine young radio sources from the 2Jy sample, combining X-shooter spectroscopy and Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging data. We find that the warm outflows have similar radial extents (~0.06-2 kpc) as radio sources, consistent with the idea that `jet mode' AGN feedback is the dominant driver of the outflows detected in young radio galaxies. Exploiting the broad spectral coverage of the X-shooter data, we have used the ratios of trans-auroral emission lines of [SII] and [OII] to estimate the electron densities, finding that most of the outflows have gas densities ($\log( n_e~cm^{-3})~3-4.8 $), which we speculate could be the result of compression by jet-induced shocks. Combining our estimates of the emission-line luminosities, radii, and densities, we find that the kinetic powers of the warm outflows are a relatively small fraction of the energies available from the accretion of material onto the central supermassive black hole (SMBH), reflecting AGN feedback efficiencies below 1% in most cases. Overall, the warm outflows detected in our sample are strikingly similar to those found in nearby ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs), but more energetic and with a high feedback efficiencies on average than the general population of nearby AGN of similar bolometric luminosity; this is likely to reflect a high degree of coupling between the jets and the near-nuclear ISM in the early stages of radio source evolution.

description: The Amateur Sky Survey (TASS) is a loose confederation of amateur and professional astronomers. We describe the design and construction of our Mark IV systems, a set of wide-field telescopes with CCD cameras which take simultaneous images in the $V$ and $I_C$ passbands. We explain our observational procedures and the pipeline which processes and reduces the images into lists of stellar positions and magnitudes. We have compiled a large database of measurements for stars in the northern celestial hemisphere with $V$-band magnitudes in the range 7 < V < 13. This paper describes data taken over the four-year period starting November, 2001. One of our results is a catalog of repeated measurements on the Johnson-Cousins system for over 4.3 million stars.

description: Jupiter's dynamics shapes its cloud patterns but remains largely unknown below this natural observational barrier. Unraveling the underlying three-dimensional flows is thus a primary goal for NASA's ongoing Juno mission that was launched in 2011. Here, we address the dynamics of large Jovian vortices using laboratory experiments complemented by theoretical and numerical analyses. We determine the generic force balance responsible for their three-dimensional pancake-like shape. From this, we define scaling laws for their horizontal and vertical aspect ratios as a function of the ambient rotation, stratification and zonal wind velocity. For the Great Red Spot in particular, our predicted horizontal dimensions agree well with measurements at the cloud level since the Voyager mission in 1979. We additionally predict the Great Red Spot's thickness, inaccessible to direct observation: it has surprisingly remained constant despite the observed horizontal shrinking. Our results now await comparison with upcoming Juno observations.

description: An infinite family of classical superintegrable Hamiltonians defined on the N-dimensional spherical, Euclidean and hyperbolic spaces are shown to have a common set of (2N-3) functionally independent constants of the motion. Among them, two different subsets of N integrals in involution (including the Hamiltonian) can always be explicitly identified. As particular cases, we recover in a straightforward way most of the superintegrability properties of the Smorodinsky-Winternitz and generalized Kepler-Coulomb systems on spaces of constant curvature and we introduce as well new classes of (quasi-maximally) superintegrable potentials on these spaces. Results here presented are a consequence of the sl(2) Poisson coalgebra symmetry of all the Hamiltonians, together with an appropriate use of the phase spaces associated to Poincare and Beltrami coordinates.

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας εργασίας είναι ο καθορισμός και η περιγραφή της χλωρίδας και των φυτοκοινωνικών μονάδων των pseudomaquis του όρους Κερδύλιο. Από την επεξεργασία των δεδομένων προέκυψε ότι η χλωρίδα αποτελείται από 337 taxa. Από την ανάλυση των βιοτικών μορφών προέκυψε ότι υπερέχουν τα ημικρυπτόφυτα. Η χωρολογική ανάλυση έδειξε ότι στο χωρολογικό φάσμα μεγαλύτερο ποσοστό κατέχουν τα χωρολογικά στοιχεία υπομεσογειακού και μεσογειακού χαρακτήρα. Στα πλαίσια της φυτοκοινωνιολογικής έρευνας, που πραγματοποιήθηκε με την μέθοδο του Braun-Blanquet (1964), διενεργήθηκαν 105 φυτοληψίες. Ακολούθησε η επεξεργασία των φυτοληψιών σε φυτοπίνακες με την χρήση λογισμικών προγραμμάτων αλλά και με την χειρονακτική μέθοδο. Από την επεξεργασία προέκυψαν τρεις συνενώσεις, εκ των οποίων η μία εντάχθηκε στην κλάση Quercetalia ilicis, ενώ οι άλλες δύο στην κλάση Quercetalia pubescentis και περιλαμβάνουν τέσσερις κοινότητες, τρεις παραλλαγές και δύο όψεις.
description: The aim of this work is the definition and description of the Flora and the phytosociological units of pseudomaquis of Mount Kerdylio. According to life forms analysis the most numerous plants are Hemicryptophytes. Chorological analysis indicated that the highest percentage in the chorological spectrum consists of submediterranean and Mediterranean elements. The data for the phytosociological research were collected from 105 releves, using the Braun-Blanquot method (1964). The data process for the classification of vegetation units was carried out using a combination of special software and the standar hand method. From that process three alliances were distinguished, one assigned to the class Quercetalia ilicis and two assigned to the class Quercetalia pubescentis, that include four communities, three variations and two facies.

description: If the Peccei-Quinn symmetry associated to an axion has ever been restored after inflation, axion strings inevitably produce a contribution to the stochastic gravitational wave background. Combining effective field theory analysis with numerical simulations, we show that the resulting gravitational wave spectrum has logarithmic deviations from a scale invariant form with an amplitude that is significantly enhanced at low frequencies. As a result, a single ultralight axion-like particle with a decay constant larger than $10^{14}~{\rm GeV}$ and any mass between $10^{-18}~{\rm eV}$ and $10^{-28}~{\rm eV}$ leads to an observable gravitational wave spectrum and is compatible with constraints on the post-inflationary scenario from dark matter overproduction, isocurvature and dark radiation. Since the spectrum extends over a wide range of frequencies, the resulting signal could be detected by multiple experiments. We describe straightforward ways in which the Peccei-Quinn symmetry can be restored after inflation for such decay constants. We also comment on the recent possible NANOgrav signal in light of our results.

description: Given an associative 3-fold in R^7 which is asymptotically conical with generic rate less than 1, we show that its moduli space of deformations is locally homeomorphic to the kernel of a smooth map between smooth manifolds. Moreover, the virtual dimension of the moduli space is computed and shown to be non-negative for rates greater than -1, whereas the associative 3-fold is expected to be isolated for rates less than or equal to -1.

Προσδιορίστηκαν οι συγκεντρώσεις ορού της γκρελίνης, λεπτίνης και αδιπονεκτίνης προεγχειρητικά και 36 μήνες μετά την εγχείρηση. Όλες οι μετρήσεις έγιναν με τη μέθοδο ELISA.Αποτελέσματα: Υπήρξε στατιστικά σημαντική μείωση της γκρελίνης και της λεπτίνης μετεγχειρητικά (P=0.008 και P=0.018 αντίστοιχα). Η αδιπονεκτίνη όπως αναμενόταν, αυξήθηκε μετά την εγχείρηση, χωρίς όμως σημαντική στατιστική διαφορά (P=0.109).Συμπεράσματα: Η απώλεια βάρους μετά την BPD-DS προκαλεί αξιοσημείωτη μείωση της γκρελίνης ορού, που μπορεί εν μέρει να αποδοθεί στη κάθετη γαστρεκτομή. Η μείωση της λεπτίνης και η αύξηση της αδιπονεκτίνης μετεγχειρητικά είναι αναμενόμενες και εξηγούνται από την μακροπρόθεσμη απώλεια βάρους που παρατηρήθηκε μετά την εγχείρηση.
description: Introduction: Alterations in serum ghrelin, leptin and adiponectin after the surgical treatment for morbid obesity depend greatly from the kind of surgical procedure.Objective: To prospectively evaluate the long-term consequences of biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) on serum levels of ghrelin, leptin and adiponectin in a cohort of patients with morbid obesity.Materials and methods: Nine mobirdly obese patients who underwent BPD-DS were studied. Serum levels of ghrelin, leptin and adiponectin were determined preoperatively and 36 months postoperatively. All measurements were carried out by ELISA.Results: There was a statistically significant reduction in ghrelin and leptin postoperatively (P=0.008 and P=0.018, respectively). Adiponectin, as expected, increased postoperatively, without any significant statistical difference (P=0.109).Conclusions: Weight loss after ΒPD-DS causes a remarkable decrease in serum ghrelin, which could partly be attributed to the sleeve gastrectomy. Decrease in leptin and increase in adiponectin levels are expected and can be explained by the long-term weight loss which was observed postoperatively.

Mελετάμε κάποιες αξιοσημείωτες κατασκευές σχετικές με Young tableaux, κάθε μια από τις οποίες μπορεί να χρησιμοποιηθεί ώστε να μετατρέψει το σύνολο των ταμπλό σε ένα μονοειδές.Στο κεφάλαιο 2 περιγράφουμε τον αλγόριθμο Schensted και τον αλγόριθμο Schützenberger.

description: The aim of this dissertation is to prove the Littlewood-Richardson rule via Young tableaux and relative algorithms. The motivation comes from the interesting applications of the rule in the theory of polynomial representations of the general linear group GL(n, K). We study some remarkable constructions on Young tableaux, each of which can be used to make the set of tableaux into a monoid.In chapter 2 we describe the Schensted “bumping” algorithm and the Schόtzen-berger “sliding” algorithm. In chapter 3 we describe the relations among words which are associated to tableaux, developed by Knuth and Schόtzenberger. The Robinson- Schensted-Knuth correspondence between matrices with positive integers and pairs of tableaux on the same shape is given in chapter 4. These constructions are used, in chapter 5, for the combinatorial version of the Littlewood-Richardson rule and for counting the numbers of tableaux of various types.

description: In the present study the amino-functionalized fullerenes (GP5, GP125) and the ammonium functionalized single wall carbon nanotubes (f-SWNTs) (NK28) were studied as potential gene carriers. The gene that was chosen to be studied is the gene of pectin lyase (PNL) that cleaves the α-1,4-glycosidic bond between the esterified molecules of D-galacturonic acid. For that purpose there were formed complexes between DNA and the functionalized: fullerenes & single wall nanotubes. The final purpose of these complexes is to study their ability to transform BL21[DE3] cells and Top10F- cells, as well as their effect on the expression of pectin lyase gene and consiquently the enzymic activity. The complexes were analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscopy-SEM, Atomic Force Microscopy-AFM, fluorimetry and agarose gel shift assay.

description: Using a phenomenological Hamiltonian, we investigate the quasiparticle lifetimes and dispersions in the three low energy bands, gamma, beta, and alpha of Sr2RuO4. Couplings in the Hamiltonian are fixed so as to produce the mass renormalization as measured in magneto-oscillation experiments. We thus find reasonable agreement in all bands between our computed lifetimes and those measured in ARPES experiments by Kidd et al. [1] and Ingle et al. [2]. In comparing computed to measured quasiparticle dispersions, we however find good agreement in the alpha-band alone.

description: El presente artículo trata de cuestionar algunas de las fundamentaciones teóricas y de las implicaciones historiográficas del reciente debate teórico en torno de la idea de una «literatura mundial». Examinando concretamente las obras de Pascale Casanova y Franco Moretti, el texto aspira a discutir las dimensiones eurocéntricas y problemáticas de dichos trabajos para mostrar, en un siguiente paso, posibles lecturas alternativas del espacio literario global como las han realizado las literaturas latinoamericanas desde el modernismo hasta la actualidad. Haciendo énfasis especial en algunos textos de Borges, Lezama Lima y Sarduy, se pretende trazar la posibilidad de una lectura de la «literatura mundial» crítica y formulada desde la presunta periferia de ese sistema literario global.

description: Nanocomposites have already been widely used to enhance thermoelectric performance since they exhibit exceptionally low lattice thermal conductivities. Further improvement is expected to arise from boosting the power factor and charge carrier relevant figure of merit ZT with nanoinclusions. Here we present that Ag nanoscale inclusions embedding in the n-PbTe can meet this requirement. The quantitative relationships between such nanostructures in PbTe and thermoelectric properties, using a versatile model including the details of geometry, electron–phonon interactions, quantization, and tunneling, showed that the Seebeck coefficient can be significantly enhanced due to interface potential barrier induced by Ag nanoinclusions. Additionally, it was found that high-concentration Ag nanoinclusions with 1–2 nm radius can effectively enhance the thermoelectric performance of PbTe through energy-selective carrier scattering, especially around room temperature. The power factor and charge carrier relevant figure of merit ZT can be elevated by at least 80% and 260%, respectively. These findings highlight effective strategies to nanostructuring for overcoming the high threshold to commercial application for cooling and power generation.

description: Steady laminar flows through porous media spontaneously generate Lagrangian chaos at pore scale, with qualitative implications for a range of transport, reactive and biological processes. The characterization and understanding of mixing dynamics in these opaque environments is an outstanding challenge. We address this issue by developing a novel technique based upon high-resolution imaging of the scalar signature produced by push-pull flows through porous media samples. Owing to the rapid decorrelation of particle trajectories in chaotic flows, the scalar image measured outside the porous material is representative of in-situ mixing dynamics. We present a theoretical framework for estimation of the Lyapunov exponent based on extension of Lagrangian stretching theories to correlated aggregation. This method provides a full characterization of chaotic mixing dynamics in a large class of porous materials.

The Structure of the Homunculus. II. Modeling the physical conditions in Eta Car's molecular shell

description: We present models that reproduce the observed double-shell structure of the Homunculus Nebula around eta Carinae, including the stratification of infrared H2 and [FeII] emission seen in data obtained with the Phoenix spectrograph on Gemini South, as well as the corresponding stratified grain temperature seen in thermal-infrared data. Tuning the model to match the observed shell thickness allows us to determine the threshold density which permits survival of H2. An average hydrogen density of n_H=(0.5-1)x10^7 cm-3 in the outer zone is required to allow H2 to exist at all latitudes in the nebula, and for Fe+ to recombine. This gives independent confirmation of the very large mass of the Homunculus, indicating a total of roughly 15--35 Msun (although we note reasons why the lower end of this range is favored). At the interface between the atomic and molecular zones, we predict a sharp drop in the dust temperature, in agreement with the bimodal dust color temperatures observed in the two zones. In the outer molecular shell, the dust temperature drops to nearly the blackbody temperature, and becomes independent of grain size because of self-shielding at shorter UV wavelengths and increased heating at longer wavelengths. This relaxes constraints on large grain sizes suggested by near-blackbody color temperatures. Finally, from the strength of infrared [FeII] emission in the inner shell we find that the gas-phase Fe abundance is roughly solar. This is astonishing in such a dusty object, where one normally expects gaseous iron to be depleted by two orders of magnitude.

description: We investigate working memory features in terms of selected working memory models, namely stochastic models and neural networks. Associative memory is introduced and related to working memory in terms of neural networks and distributed processing. A simple stochastic model of working memory is also presented and its mixing time is estimated. The capacity of working memory is studied using queueing theory and Little's law.

description: The iteration sequence based on the BLUES (Beyond Linear Use of Equation Superposition) function method for calculating analytic approximants to solutions of nonlinear ordinary differential equations with sources is elaborated upon. Diverse problems in physics are studied and approximate analytic solutions are found. We first treat a damped driven nonlinear oscillator and show that the method can correctly reproduce oscillatory behaviour. Next, a fractional differential equation describing heat transfer in a semi-infinite rod with Stefan-Boltzmann cooling is handled. In this case, a detailed comparison is made with the Adomian decomposition method, the outcome of which is favourable for the BLUES method. As a final problem, the Fisher equation from population biology is dealt with. For all cases, it is shown that the solutions converge exponentially fast to the numerically exact solution, either globally or, for the Fisher problem, locally.

description: The presence of organic compounds in aquatic environment that can affect the endocrine system of various organisms has become a matter of scientific and public concern. These compounds are known as Endocrine Disrupting Compounds (EDCs). The aim of this study was to investigate the presence and the fate of selected EDCs in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants. The target compounds were4-octylphenol(4-OP), 4t-octylphenol (4t-OP), octylphenol monoethoxylate (OP1EO) and diethoxylate (OP2EO), 4-nonylphenol (4-NP), nonylphenol monoethoxylate (NP1EO) and diethoxylate (NP2EO), bisphenol A(BPA), triclosan (TCS), estrone (E1), 17a-estradiol(aE2), 17b-estradiol(bE2) and estriol(E3). These compounds were determined in liquid and solid samples (TSS, sludge) by GC-MS, GC-MS/MS. The removal efficiency of target EDCs, the distribution between dissolved and particulate fractions and correlation with organic carbon are presented in this study.
The Vancouver Aquatic Centre: in-between phenomenon : water and land
Creators: name: Cheung, Lisa
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: A modern large recreational hall may hardly recognize a sense of human scale nor provide users the architectural meaning corresponding to the activities it accommodates. The experimental project of renovating the Vancouver Aquatic Center attempts to reinstate the relationship between the body, water and architecture. There exist certain sequence and pattern in participating various leisure/fitness activities which require mental and physical preparation. I focus on accentuating the transitional experiences at different stages of taking part swimming, diving, and hot baths by creating spaces to allow mental readiness for activities and contemplation of experience. Thus, I explore the perception of edges by marking of different threshold, making it subtle or bringing it out into presence. This practice requires much envision of walking through the building and anticipation of how space to be used which corresponds to my study of history of bathing and questions of perception. In order to reintroduce the social value of bathing which exists in Japanese bath and the like, I expand the facilities program parallel to the concept of Roman Thermae where people can meet and interact. Therefore, the proposed new aquatic centre seeks to enhance social and visual communication between the surrounding environment and the building, between users outside and inside, between different activities within the building. Moreover, initiated by the study of phenomenological architecture, this project revolves around the idea of intriguing memories and emotions through associative and tactile experience by the use of materials, spatial configuration, lighting, transparency and the placement of apertures to capture views. I try to provide diversified experience with different forms of water, steam, hot/cold temperatures, brightness/darkness, hard/soft land, submerge/emerge, clear/opaque and other perception of space. The ultimate goal of this experiment is to provide users the meanings of the architectural form, space, material and order, yet as well give potential to allow the users' own interpretations.

description: In this paper a phase-field approach for structural topology optimization for a 3D-printing process which includes stress constraint and potentially multiple materials or multiscales is analyzed. First order necessary optimality conditions are rigorously derived and a numerical algorithm which implements the method is presented. A sensitivity study with respect to some parameters is conducted for a two-dimensional cantilever beam problem. Finally, a possible workflow to obtain a 3D-printed object from the numerical solutions is described and the final structure is printed using a fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printer.
Measuring time delays: I. Using a flux time series that is a linear combination of time-shifted light curves

description: (Abridged) Several phenomena in astrophysics generate light curves with time delays. Among these are reverberation mapping, and lensed quasars. In some systems, the measurement of the time-delay is complicated by the fact that the delayed components are unresolved and that the light curves are generated from a red-noise process. We derive the likelihood function of the observations given a model of either a combination of time-delayed light curves or a single light curve. This likelihood function is different from the auto-correlation function. We demonstrate that given a single-band light curve that is a combination of two (or more) time-shifted copies of an original light curve, generated from a red-noise probability distribution, we can test if the total-flux light curve is a composition of time-delayed copies or, alternatively, is consistent with being the original light curve. Furthermorew, in some realistic cases, it is possible to measure the time delays and flux ratios between these unresolved components even when the flux ratio is about 1/10. This method is useful for identifying lensed quasars and simultaneously measuring their time delays, and for estimating the reverberation time scales of active galactic nuclei. In a companion paper, we derive a method that uses the center-of-light position (e.g., of a lensed quasar) along with the combined flux. This allow us to identify lensed quasars and supernovae and measure their time delays, with higher fidelity compared to the flux-only method. The astrometry + flux method, however, is not suitable for quasar reverberation mapping. We also comment on the commonly used method of fitting a power-law model to a power spectrum, and present the proper likelihood function for such a fit. We test the new method on simulations and provide Python and MATLAB implementations.
