The Surface Density Profile Of The Galactic Disk From The Terminal Velocity Curve, Stacy S. Mcgaugh Dec 2015

The Surface Density Profile Of The Galactic Disk From The Terminal Velocity Curve, Stacy S. Mcgaugh

Faculty Scholarship

The mass distribution of the Galactic disk is constructed from the terminal velocity curve and the mass discrepancy-acceleration relation. Mass models numerically quantifying the detailed surface density profiles are tabulated. For R0 = 8 kpc, the models have stellar mass 5 < M∗ < 6 × 1010 , scale length 2.0 ≤ Rd ≤ 2.9 kpc, LSR circular velocity 222 ≤ Θ0 ≤ 233 , and solar circle stellar surface density 34 ≤ Σd(R0) ≤ 61 . The present interarm location of the solar neighborhood may have a somewhat lower stellar surface density than average for the solar circle. The Milky Way appears to be a normal spiral galaxy that obeys scaling relations like the Tully-Fisher relation, the size-mass relation, and the disk maximality-surface brightness relation. The stellar disk is maximal, and the spiral arms are massive. The bumps and wiggles in the terminal velocity curve correspond to known spiral features (e.g., the Centaurus arm is a ∼50% overdensity). The rotation curve switches between positive and negative over scales of hundreds of parsecs. The rms amplitude , implying that commonly neglected terms in the Jeans equations may be nonnegligible. The spherically averaged local dark matter density is ρ0,DM ≈ 0.009 (0.34 ). Adiabatic compression of the dark matter halo may help reconcile the Milky Way with the c-V200 relation expected in ΛCDM while also helping to mitigate the too-big-to-fail problem, but it remains difficult to reconcile the inner bulge/bar-dominated region with a cuspy halo. We note that NGC 3521 is a near twin to the Milky Way, having a similar luminosity, scale length, and rotation curve.


What Drives Households To Divert Loans? A Village Level Study, Tanmoyee Banerjee, Malabika Roy, Ajitava Raychaudhuri, Chandralekha Ghosh Dec 2015

What Drives Households To Divert Loans? A Village Level Study, Tanmoyee Banerjee, Malabika Roy, Ajitava Raychaudhuri, Chandralekha Ghosh

Asia-Pacific Social Science Review

This paper is based on a study on the phenomenon of loan diversion. Based on a primary survey carried out in two districts of West Bengal, India, it identifies association between the socio- economic and demographic characteristics of the borrowers to the incidences of loan diversion (that is a permanent shifting of loans for purposes other than the stated one); and the extent of such loan diversion.The descriptive analysis reveals that loans mostly from microfinance institutions are diverted. Econometric analysis shows that probability of loan diversion is high for groups who openly reveal support for political parties, apparently pointing towards …


Culture, Structure, And Co-Ethnic Relations Of Indonesians Migrant Entrepreneurship In Taiwan, Paulus Rudolf Yuniarto Dec 2015

Culture, Structure, And Co-Ethnic Relations Of Indonesians Migrant Entrepreneurship In Taiwan, Paulus Rudolf Yuniarto

Asia-Pacific Social Science Review

Migrant entrepreneurship prompts a series of fascinating research questions on the nature, culture, and interconnectedness of migrant situations within host settlements. The rise of migrant entrepreneurship is the outcome of the integration of these cultural-structural elements in order to mobilize resources to fulfill the demands of entrepreneurship and to obtain competitive advantages in business. This paper describes how the symbiotic relations between migrants and their socio-cultural conditions shape the patterns of Indonesian entrepreneurship in Taiwan. In practice, Indonesian migrant entrepreneurship in Taiwan involves entrepreneurs applying local values or customs in the host society and then (re) produce them in their …

Experiences Of Coming Out In Japan: Negotiating “Perceived Homophobia”, Kotona Motoyama Dec 2015

Experiences Of Coming Out In Japan: Negotiating “Perceived Homophobia”, Kotona Motoyama

Asia-Pacific Social Science Review

Heteronormative society requires non-heterosexuals to come out in order to be recognized. Coming out is often the most challenging experience for non-heterosexuals and heteronormativity and homophobia are two powerful obstacles that they have to deal with. This paper considers how non-heterosexuals come out to themselves and to heterosexual others under the effect of Japanese cultural norms. Interviews with 24 non-heterosexuals and their experiences revealed that they have to deal with not only heteronormativity and homophobia like non-heterosexuals in the Western culture, but also “perceived homophobia,” which is created by the expectation of “respectable Japanese selves.” Thus, coming out in Japan …

Department of Medicine Faculty Papers

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) - despite advances in prevention and medical treatment options - remains prevalent among older adults, often resulting in functional losses that negatively affect the mental health of older adults. In particular, the prevalence of both anxiety and depression in patients with AMD is high. Along with medical treatment options, low vision rehabilitation and AMD-specific behavioral and self-management programs have been developed and have demonstrated effectiveness in improving the mental health of AMD patients. This article reviews the prevalence of anxiety and depression in patients with advanced AMD, discusses potential mechanisms accounting for the development of depression …


Lower-Dimensional Black Hole Chemistry, Antonia M. Frassino, Robert B. Mann, Jonas R. Mureika Dec 2015

Lower-Dimensional Black Hole Chemistry, Antonia M. Frassino, Robert B. Mann, Jonas R. Mureika

Physics Faculty Works

The connection between black hole thermodynamics and chemistry is extended to the lower-dimensional regime by considering the rotating and charged Bañados, Teitelboim, and Zanelli (BTZ) metric in the (2 þ 1)-dimensional and (1 þ 1)-dimensional limits of Einstein gravity. The Smarr relation is naturally upheld in both BTZ cases, where those with Q ≠ 0 violate the reverse isoperimetric inequality and are thus superentropic. The inequality can be maintained, however, with the addition of a new thermodynamic work term associated with the mass renormalization scale. The D → 0 limit of a generic D þ 2-dimensional Einstein gravity theory is …


Los Problemas De Las Fronteras Humanitarias, Miriam Ticktin Dec 2015

Los Problemas De Las Fronteras Humanitarias, Miriam Ticktin

Publications and Research

Resumen:

Este texto plantea un análisis crítico del papel de los discursos y prácticas humanitaristas en nuestra concepción de la migración y en las políticas públicas desarrolladas en relación a la movilidad poblacional a través de las fronteras internacionales. Se parte de la premisa de que el humanitarismo, aunque fuera bien intencionado, puede tener efectos perniciosos sobre la situación que se vive en las fronteras, especialmente si acaba por sustituir a la justicia y a los derechos que tienen los emigrantes. Para estudiar esta paradoja, el texto analiza, sucesivamente, varios problemas asociados a la acción humanitaria: el problema con la …


Reconciliation As Free-Floating Signification: Reconciliation After 2014 Coup In Thailand, Siwach Sripokangkul Dec 2015

Reconciliation As Free-Floating Signification: Reconciliation After 2014 Coup In Thailand, Siwach Sripokangkul

Asia-Pacific Social Science Review

The word reconciliation has become common throughout Thai society since the aftermath of the massacres of Red Shirt protesters in the heart of Bangkok in the months April and May 2010, which killed around a hundred people and injured 2,000 more. The word came into use by the government since the massacres, and has become an even more regular part of government discourse since the military’s successful May 22, 2014 coup d’état against Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra. The need for reconciliation stems from the incidents of national unrest created by protesters demanding Shinawatra’s resignation and the dissolution of her government …

Oral Lichen Planus: Diagnosis And Management, Isaäc Van Der Waal Dec 2015

Oral Lichen Planus: Diagnosis And Management, Isaäc Van Der Waal

Journal of Dentistry Indonesia

Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a rather common oral disease, mainly affecting adults, occurring more often in women than in men. The etiopathogenesis is still unclear. The diagnosis may be cumbersome, even in the presence of a biopsy. In addition, there are several lesions that may resemble lichen planus (lichenoid lesions) both clinically and histopathologically. Treatment of OLP can only be symptomatic and usually consists of topical application of corticosteroids. The disease is characterized by remissions and exacerbations and may persist in some patients lifelong. There is an ongoing debate in the literature as whether OLP is a potentially malignant …
