The Quest for a Stable Disk by J. A. Sellwood, R. G. Carlberg

“…Toomre (1981) claimed that the Mestel disk, embedded in an equal-mass halo, is a notable counterexample, but his prediction of stability could not be reproduced in simulations, due to complicated nonlinear effects that caused secular growth of Poisson noise–driven disturbances until strong features emerged. …”

Heterogeneity in ‘High Fertility’ Societies. Insights From Compositional Demography by Hilde Bras

“…The 'Traditional 2' subpopulation had on average 7.2 children per woman, more often lived in towns, married significantly later, and had more equal gender relations. Compositional demography, revealing subpopulations with divergent cultures of marital self-restraint and reproductive management, not only nuances previous (historical) demographic findings, but may well offer more tools to develop family planning and reproductive health policies than the demographic transition model does.…”

Experimental Study on Kaolinite Weathering Sand as Cement Mortar Accelerating Agent by Wenjuan Wu, Chao Hu, Haifeng Liu, Shijie Ma, Zhenzhong Yuan, Xiaomeng Zhang

“…The results show that the 7-day unconfined compressive strength of kaolinite weathered sand fine sand mixed mortar test block is higher than that of accelerating mortar mixed mortar test block when the content of kaolinite weathered fine sand is equal to that of the accelerating agent. However, the 7-day unconfined compressive strength of mortar decreases when the content of fine-grained kaolinite weathered sand increases and the content of cement decreases, indicating that fine-grained kaolinite weathered sand cannot completely replace cement as cement mortar, and the proportion of fine-grained kaolinite weathered sand should be considered according to the strength grade of mixed mortar.…”

Nonreciprocal Synchronization of Active Quantum Spins by Tobias Nadolny, Christoph Bruder, Matteo Brunelli

“…For a finite number of spins, signatures of the time-crystal phase can still be identified by inspecting equal-time or two-time correlation functions. Remarkably, continuous monitoring of the output field of the waveguides induces a quantum traveling-wave state: a time-crystalline state of a finite-size quantum system, in which parity-time symmetry is spontaneously broken. …”

Les appels de Margaret Fell pour convertir les Juifs : de l’émancipation à la soumission chez la première femme Quaker by Frédéric Herrmann
