    A letter from Frank Chin to Dale [Minami] thanking him for sending a VHS clip for "Michi Day." Chin devotes the bulk of the letter to a proposal for creating a bell, that would be made of pieces of metal from incarceration camps, to celebrate Japanese American redress.These materials are from box 73 and 74 of the Frank Chin Papers. The Frank Chin Papers contain personal and professional correspondence between Frank Chin and Michi Weglyn relating to particular projects on which either author was working as well as files related to the Day of Remembrance Tribute to Michi Weglyn

    Simultaneous determination of the cosmic birefringence and miscalibrated polarization angles II: Including cross-frequency spectra

    No full text
    We develop a strategy to determine the cosmic birefringence and miscalibrated polarization angles simultaneously using the observed EB polarization power spectra of the cosmic microwave background and the Galactic foreground emission. We extend the methodology of Y. Minami et al. (Prog. Theor. Exp. Phys. 2019, 083E02, 2019), which was developed for auto-frequency power spectra, by including cross-frequency spectra. By fitting one global birefringence angle and independent miscalibration angles at different frequency bands, we determine both angles with significantly smaller uncertainties (by more than a factor of two) compared to the auto spectra

    Feminism, Power, & Nuclear Weapons : An Eye on the P5

    No full text
    This project is a collection of articles from five extraordinary civil society thinkers on feminism and nuclear policy to address this precise question. It is our hope that this work inspires a thoughtful interrogation of the status quo in both personal and professional capacities, and encourages us all to think more creatively and holistically about nuclear policy

    Topographic data generated from oblique aerial photos in Minami-Aso, Kumamoto, Japan just after the April 2016 earthquake

    Numerous landslides occurred when the Mw 7.0 earthquake hit Kumamoto area in western Japan on April 16, 2016. The most distinct landslide was observed in Minami-Aso Village, where a bridge was destroyed by the landslide. This datasets comprise 3-dimensional topographic models of the landslide at Minami-Aso, produced just after the source data (oblique aerial photographs) became available online. The first version is the result of prompt data processing of those original photographs using the technique of Structure-from-Motion Multi-View Stereo (SfM-MVS) photogrammetry. - data type: point cloud (LAZ), digital elevation model (DEM) (GeoTIFF), hillshade image (GeoTIFF), orthorectified image (GeoTIFF) - projection: Japan Plane Rectangle CS II (datum: JGD 2000

    The gnathiid isopod Elaphognathia kikuchii from a Whitesaddle goatfish Parupeneus ciliatus, collected off Bonotsu, Minami Satsuma, Kagoshima

    A larva of Elaphognathia kikuchii (Nunomura, 1992) (Crustacea; Isopoda; Gnathiidae) was found from gill of a Whitesaddle goatfish Parupeneus ciliatus (Lacepède, 1802) caught off Bonotsu (100–115 m depth), Minami Satsuma, Kagoshima, southern Japan. This isopod was kept in an incubator at 16℃, and 58 days later it molted and metamorphosed into an adult male. It could be identified by the morphology of the adult males. This paper is the first information of the host fish in E. kikuchii.journal articl

    Allyl monitorization of the regioselective pd-catalyzed annulation of alkylnyl aryl ethers leading to bismethylenechromanes

    No full text
    The mechanism for the synthesis of 2,3-bismethylenechromanes obtained by the reaction between silylethynyloxyarenes and allylic pivalates and catalyzed by a palladium complex has been investigated using computational methods rooted in density functional theory. The reaction is promoted by a C-H bond activation and the consequent bond cleavage of both substrates, followed by a novel annulation. The whole mechanism of this reaction is described together with the drawbacks that could block it. The main role played by the allyl rotation, inducing selectivity, together with the lability of the phosphine ligand and base (Cs2CO3) effects are unraveled. Finally, the nature of the substrates was managed, confirming that ortho-allylated silylethynyloxybenzenes lead to the same type of annulated products
