Nathan Newsom diary
No full textNarrative account entitled "A Short summary of a journey, taken by volunteers from Gallia County; for the purpose of destroying Indians and the invasion of Canada," written by Nathan Newsom. Newsom was an orderly sergeant in Captain Calvin Shepard's company from Gallia County, Ohio, during the War of 1812. This volume conveys conditions experienced by soldiers during the war, including low pay, shortages of food and clothing, low morale, and severe weather conditions. Newsom also describes the cooperation of the army with friendly Indians and the disciplinary measures taken for desertion and other offenses

Exploring HOD-dependent systematics for the DESI 2024 Full-Shape galaxy clustering analysis
No full textN. Findlay et al. -- Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey Year 1 resultsWe analyse the robustness of the DESI 2024 cosmological inference from the full shape of the galaxy power spectrum to uncertainties in the Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD) model of the galaxy-halo connection and the choice of priors on nuisance parameters. We assess variations in the recovered cosmological parameters across a range of mocks populated with different HOD models and find that shifts are often greater than 20% of the expected statistical uncertainties from the DESI data. We encapsulate the effect of such shifts in terms of a systematic covariance term, CHOD, and an additional diagonal contribution quantifying the impact of our choice of nuisance parameter priors on the ability of the effective field theory (EFT) model to correctly recover the cosmological parameters of the simulations. These two covariance contributions are designed to be added to the usual covariance term, Cstat, describing the statistical uncertainty in the power spectrum measurement, in order to fairly represent these sources of systematic uncertainty. This novel approach should be more general and robust to the choice of model or additional external datasets used in cosmological fits than the alternative approach of adding systematic uncertainties to the recovered marginalised parameter posteriors. We compare the approaches within the context of a fixed ΛCDM model and demonstrate that our method gives conservative estimates of the systematic uncertainty that nevertheless have little impact on the final posteriors obtained from DESI data.We would like to acknowledge Mark Maus and Kazuya Koyama for serving as internal reviewers of this work and providing useful feedback. We thank Samuel Brieden for a comment on the limitation of fixing nuisance parameters in the creation of the HOD covariance that helped to shape this paper.

Linear Recurrent Subsequences of Generalized Meta-Fibonacci Sequences
No full textIn a recent paper, Frank Ruskey asked whether every linear recurrent sequence can occur in some solution of a meta-Fibonacci sequence. In this paper, we consider the natural generalization of meta-Fibonacci recurrences to more than two terms. In this context, we show, using an explicit construction, that any sequence satisfying a linear recurrence with positive coefficients occurs as an evenly-spaced subsequence in some generalized meta-Fibonacci sequence.Peer reviewe
