Iribe Center. The Iribe Center (; officially known as the Brendan Iribe Center for Computer Science and Innovation) is a building at the University of Maryland, College Park that is used primarily for computer science education and research. It replaced the university's previous computer science buildings, the Computer Science Instruction Building and the A. V. Williams Building.

Construction 

The construction of the center was completed in 2019 after several years of construction and at a reported cost of $152 million. It was named after Brendan Iribe, who donated money to pay for part of the construction cost. He is an entrepreneur and former student at the university who had previously dropped out. Part of the center's funding also came from the state government. The opening ceremony was held on April 26, 2019, a date chosen to coincide with the university's public outreach day, although parts of the facility were accessible to students before that time. Those in attendance to the opening ceremony included the state governor, Larry Hogan, and the president of the university, Wallace Loh. Loh stated that the building represents the fusion of the "traditional academy and the technological future and economic development of the state of Maryland".

Design and usage 
Designed by a team at the Omaha-based architecture firm HDR led by Brian Kowalchuk, the center consists of two general-purpose floors and several floors dedicated to computer science research, in addition to an auditorium with approximately 300 seats. The research area includes devices such as 3D printers, laser cutters, vinyl cutters, and metal milling machines, many of which cannot be found anywhere else on the university's campus.

Coulomb gas. In statistical physics, a Coulomb gas is a many-body system of charged particles interacting under the electrostatic force. It is named after Charles-Augustin de Coulomb, as the force by which the particles interact is also known as the Coulomb force.

The system can be defined in any number of dimensions. While the three-dimensional Coulomb gas is the most experimentally realistic, the best understood is the two-dimensional Coulomb gas. The two-dimensional Coulomb gas is known to be equivalent to the continuum XY model of magnets and the sine-Gordon model (upon taking certain limits) in a physical sense, in that physical observables (correlation functions) calculated in one model can be used to calculate physical observables in another model. This aided the understanding of the BKT transition, and the discoverers earned a Nobel Prize in Physics for their work on this phase transition.

Formulation 
The setup starts with considering  charged particles in  with positions  and charges . From electrostatics, the pairwise potential energy between particles labelled by indices  is (up to scale factor)

where  is the Coulomb kernel or Green's function of the Laplace equation in  dimensions, so

The free energy due to these interactions is then (proportional to) , and the partition function is given by integrating over different configurations, that is, the positions of the charged particles.

Coulomb gas in conformal field theory 
The two-dimensional Coulomb gas can be used as a framework for describing fields in minimal models. This comes from the similarity of the two-point correlation function of the free boson ,

to the electric potential energy between two unit charges in two dimensions.

BOAC Flight 115. BOAC Flight 115 was a scheduled passenger flight from Heathrow Airport to Palmietfontein Airport in Johannesburg with several intermediate stops. On 26 October 1952, Flight 115 ran off the runway on takeoff at Ciampino Airport in Rome but all 43 on board survived. It was the first hull-loss of a Comet.

Background 
In 1949 the de Havilland Comet was the first passenger jet to fly and revenue service began in May of 1952, 6 months before the accident. G-ALYZ was a Comet 1A and the fifth Comet produced for the British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC). It was en route from London to Johannesburg with stops in Rome and Cairo. 35 people boarded the plane heading to Cairo with 2 captains, 1 engineer and 1 navigator with 4 cabin crew.

Crash 
Flight 115 was operating a regular passenger service from London to Johannesburg. At the Rome airport the aircraft taxied to Runway 16, and then the aircraft began takeoff for the second leg to Cairo. The pilot rotated the nose at a speed of 75-80 knots and then at a speed of 112 knots he pulled back further on the control column to lift the airplane into the air. As the airplane reached an appropriate height in the air the captain called for the landing gear to be raised but the left wing suddenly dropped however control was quickly regained. The aircraft began to shake and the pilot thought the aircraft was beginning to stall, but despite two corrective actions of the control column, the shaking continued. Before the first officer had had time to raise the landing gear, the aircraft came down on the landing gear wheels and bounced. The pilot then realized that the aircraft's speed was not increasing and thought it was caused by loss of engine thrust. He was also aware that the aircraft was quickly approaching the end of the runway so the pilot abandoned the takeoff. The aircraft was moving too fast to stop on the runway and when it overran the end of the runway the aircraft struck an earthen mound and slid for , breaking off the landing gear and suffering severe damage. Despite a large fuel spill, no fire resulted. The only injuries reported were one passenger with a cut finger and one with slight shock.

Cause 
The cause of the crash was pilot input of an excessive nose-up command during the takeoff which lead to a stall. The after-accident report noted that the manufacturer's handbook included a caution in its description of the take off procedure, saying, "... care should be taken not to overdo [the nose up] with a consequent poor acceleration."

Consortium for Execution of Rendezvous and Servicing Operations. The Consortium for Execution of Rendezvous and Servicing Operations (CONFERS) is a program started by the  Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in 2017.  The goal was to address the lack of widely accepted technical and safety standards for on-orbit servicing activities involving commercial satellites. In partnership with NASA, the CONFERS program was to establish a permanent, self-sustaining, and independent forum where industry could engage with the U.S. Government to collaborate and create standards for on-orbit servicing.

In 2017, DARPA provided funding to Advanced Technology International to form the consortium as an industry-led initiative. Since 2018, CONFERS holds annual Global Satellite Servicing Forum conferences.

In 2022, International Standards Organization (ISO) adopted CONFERS’ standard as ISO 24330, Space systems — Rendezvous and Proximity Operations (RPO) and On Orbit Servicing (OOS).

DARPA has transitioned the leadership and funding to CONFERS, Inc., a nonprofit 501(c)(6) organization.
