    The relationship between the intergalactic medium and galaxies

    No full text
    In this thesis we study the relationship between the intergalactic medium (IGM) and galaxies at z<1, in a statistical manner. Galaxies are mostly surveyed in emission using optical spectroscopy, while the IGM is mostly surveyed in absorption in the ultra-violet (UV) spectra of background quasi-stellar objects (QSOs). We present observational results investigating the connection between the IGM and galaxies using two complementary methods: • We use galaxy voids as tracers of both underdense and overdense regions. We use archival data to study the properties of H I absorption line systems within and around galaxy voids at z<0.1. Typical galaxy voids have sizes 10 Mpc and so our results constrain the very large-scale association. This sample contains 106 H I absorption systems and 1054 galaxy voids. • We use a sample of H I absorption line systems and galaxies from pencil beam surveys to measure the H I–galaxy cross-correlation at z<1. Our sample is composed of a combination of archival and new data taken by the author and collaborators. This survey covers transverse separations between H I and galaxies from ∼ 100 kpc (proper) up to ∼ 10 Mpc, filling the gap between the very large scales and those associated with the so-called circumgalactic medium (CGM). This sample contains 654 H I absorption systems and 17509 galaxies. Our results hint towards a picture in which there are at least three types of association between the diffuse gas in the Universe and galaxies at z 1: • One-to-one direct association because galaxies do contain diffuse gas. • Indirect association because both the IGM and galaxies trace the same over-dense underlying dark matter distribution. We provide quantitative evidence for this association. Moreover, we show that not all galaxies are related to the diffuse gas in the same way. In particular, a non negligible fraction of ‘non-star-forming’ galaxies might reside in environments devoid of diffuse H I. • No association because there are regions in the Universe that contain a significant amount of diffuse gas but that are devoid of galaxies. In these regions, only the IGM follows the underdense underlying dark matter distribution because galaxies are not present. We provide quantitative evidence for this scenario

    How Did I Get to Princess Margaret? (And How Did I Get Her to the World Wide Web?)

    No full text
    The paper explores the growing use of tools from the arts and humanities for investigation and dissemination of social science research. Emerging spaces for knowledge transfer, such as the World Wide Web, are explored as outlets for "performative social science". Questions of ethnics and questions of evaluation which emerge from performative social science and the use of new technologies are discussed. Contemporary thinking in aesthetics is explored to answer questions of evaluation. The use of the Internet for productions is proposed as supporting the collective elaboration of meaning supported by Relational Aesthetics. One solution to the ethical problem of performing the narrations of others is the use of the writer's own story as autoethnography. The author queries autoethnography's tendency to tell "sad" stories and proposes an amusing story, exemplified by "The One about Princess Margaret" (see Appendix). The conclusion is reached that the free and open environment of the Internet sidelines the usual tediousness of academic publishing and begins to explore new answers to questions posed about the evaluation and ethics of performative social science

    Andres: The Unfinished Business of a Seemingly Selective Non-Advantage. Case C-203/16 P Dirk Andres v European Commission:The Unfinished Business of a Seemingly Selective Non-Advantage

    The Andres judgement has often been seen as a Milestone on selectivity, but in essence it is not. It rather deals with the absence of an advantage. In this contribution the author revisits Andres and concludes that, from a transactional perspective set forth in Sigma Alimentos Exterior, the outcome could well have been different. He also points out that Andres opened up a loophole to the state aid regime that could be exploited by providing targeted relief to over-inclusive anti-abuse measures. He concludes that it is primarily up to national legislators and domestic courts to guard against disproportional tax measures.</p

    Identification of author profiles through social networks

    No full text
    The aim of this paper is to compile dictionaries of slang words, abbreviations, contractions, and emoticons to help the pre-processing of texts published in social networks. The use of these dictionaries is intended to improve the results of the tasks related to data obtained from these platforms. Therefore, a hypothesis was evaluated in the task of identifying author profiles (author profiling).Silva, JesúsMaria Santodomingo, Nicolas EliasRomero, LigiaJorge, MarisolHerrera, MaritzaPineda Lezama, Omar Bonerg
