Tropical Cyclone - nilofar
Tropical Cyclone Nilofar developed on Saturday in the middle of the Arabian Sea and is now developed into severe Cyclone with winds of 55 knots gusting upto 70 knots with high seas , presently The system has been moving at a very slow speed of 5 kmph, tracking north/northwestwards. This indicates that it is going to recurve and move northeastward, and will bring impacts to parts of Oman, Pakistan and India this week.
Trust building in international relations
1. The document discusses trust building in international relations, specifically regarding the nuclear non-proliferation treaty (NPT) and a 2010 agreement between Brazil, Iran, and Turkey to exchange uranium.
2. The agreement helped demonstrate Iran's intentions to the international community and put Iran's nuclear program under more scrutiny, potentially making it less likely that Iran develops nuclear weapons.
3. However, both Iran and Israel need to take further steps to build trust, such as Iran fully adhering to the NPT and Israel signing the NPT and allowing inspections of its nuclear facilities. Resolving the Palestinian conflict could also help reduce distrust between Iran and Israel.
Pacific ring of_fire
The Pacific Ring of Fire is an area in the basin of the Pacific Ocean characterized by active volcanoes and frequent earthquakes. It is caused by tectonic plate movement and friction. The Ring of Fire makes up approximately 40,000 km in length and shapes a horseshoe around the Pacific basin, containing 452 volcanoes. Due to lithospheric plates colliding and rubbing against each other in this region, 80% of the world's earthquakes and over 75% of the world's active and dormant volcanoes are found near the Ring of Fire.
Ch.5.less.1.how can we describe earth's features
The document describes several key features of the ocean floor:
1) The continental shelf is the shallow ocean floor along a continent's coast that slopes gradually downward.
2) The continental slope is the sharp decline where the continental shelf ends.
3) The continental rise is the gentle slope below the continental slope.
4) An abyssal plain is a wide, flat area of the deep ocean floor, sometimes found near the mouths of large rivers.
How do fronts and air masses change the weather?
Fronts and air masses change the weather by interacting at boundaries called fronts. There are four main types of air masses - cold/dry, cold/wet, warm/dry, warm/wet - determined by whether they form over land or water. Cold fronts bring stormy weather as warm air is forced upwards, while warm fronts bring steady rain. Stationary fronts cause prolonged rain. Weather maps use symbols to depict current conditions and colored areas to show temperatures. Forecasts predict future weather. Severe storms include tornadoes, blizzards, and hurricanes, which people prepare for using safety measures like watching weather reports, sounds sirens, and evacuation signs.
Endangered & Extinct
Pandas, rhinoceroses, and turtles are endangered species, as there are very few left of each kind. When an animal population becomes endangered, conservation efforts are needed to help the species survive and avoid going extinct, like some animals such as dinosaurs that are no longer in existence. Scientists can determine what animals lived in the past by discovering fossils, which are remains or evidence left behind of ancient living things.
What causes habitats to change
There are three main reasons why habitats change: nature, animals, and humans. Habitats can change naturally through fires caused by lightning, droughts due to lack of rain, or floods from excessive rain. Animals like beavers can change habitats by building dams that form ponds. Humans impact habitats through deforestation, hunting animals for their fur, and construction of buildings over land.
How do we use air & water
Natural resources like air, water, plants, and animals are found in nature and used by people to survive. There are two types of water resources: fresh water from sources like rivers and lakes that is used for drinking, and salt water like oceans that is not potable. Fresh water is transported to homes through aqueducts, stored in reservoirs, or accessed from underground wells. Water is treated before human consumption by allowing impurities to settle, filtering through sand and gravel, using chemicals to kill harmful organisms, and pumping the clean water to the population.

Animals like beavers can change habitats by building dams that form ponds. Humans impact habitats through deforestation, hunting animals for their fur, and construction of buildings over land.
How do we use air & water
Natural resources like air, water, plants, and animals are found in nature and used by people to survive. There are two types of water resources: fresh water from sources like rivers and lakes that is used for drinking, and salt water like oceans that is not potable. Fresh water is transported to homes through aqueducts, stored in reservoirs, or accessed from underground wells. Water is treated before human consumption by allowing impurities to settle, filtering through sand and gravel, using chemicals to kill harmful organisms, and pumping the clean water to the population.
Habitat
This document discusses habitats and the different animals that live in each of the five main habitats. It defines a habitat as a place where animals can find food, water, and shelter. It then lists some examples of animals that live in each of the five main habitats: the ocean habitat (crabs, urchins, whales, seals), the forest habitat (squirrels, monkeys, owls), the desert habitat (snakes, scorpions, camels), the grasslands habitat (lions, giraffes, zebras, koalas, ostriches), and the Antarctica habitat (penguins, polar bears).
How do plant parts help plants
Each plant part has an important role in helping the plant grow. The stem holds up the plant and transports water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves. The leaves use sunlight, air, water, and nutrients to produce food for the plant through photosynthesis. The roots take in water and nutrients from the soil and anchor the plant, functioning like the plant's roots.
Changes in the environment
The document discusses how natural disasters and diseases can change the environment and affect living organisms. It provides examples of floods and droughts as natural disasters that can occur due to heavy rain or lack of rain. Droughts can cause wildfires that damage plant and animal habitats. Diseases from mold, bacteria, and mildew can also spread and harm living things. The environment is changed when disasters and diseases destroy forests and force animals to migrate, adapt, or die off if unable to adjust to the new conditions.
What do plants need to survive?
Plants need five things to survive and grow: oxygen from the air, water, nutrients found in soil, space to grow freely, and sunlight. Fruits were once living parts of plants but become non-living when picked after ripening.
What do animals need to survive?
Animals need four things to survive - food, water, oxygen, and shelter. Food provides nutrients for animals to grow, water is also vital for survival, oxygen is required for breathing, and shelter offers a safe place for animals to live. Different types of animal shelters include kennels, stables, beehives, nests, and aquariums.
How do an organism's trait help it survive?
Organisms exhibit traits that help them survive in their environments through adaptations like camouflage, mimicry, nocturnal behavior, hibernation, and migration. Camouflage allows animals to blend into their surroundings and hide from predators while hunting prey. Mimicry enables some animals to disguise their appearance and resemble other organisms or objects like stones. Nocturnal habits, hibernation, and migration are also adaptive behaviors that help animals find food or escape harsh environments. Plants in deserts and wetlands similarly display adaptations like deep root systems and water storage to cope with their ecological conditions.
The Water Cycle
The document discusses the water cycle and the three states of matter that water can be present in - solid, liquid, and gas. It explains that water can change between these states through heating and cooling processes like evaporation, where heating liquid water turns it into gas water vapor, and condensation, where cooling water vapor turns it back into a liquid.
Types of clouds
There are 3 main types of clouds: cumulus clouds which are white and puffy like cotton-candy, cirrus clouds which are long and thin resembling feathers, and stratus clouds which look like blankets covering the sky.
Thunderstorm
There are three main types of storms: 1) Thunderstorms which occur when there is lightning, thunder, strong winds and heavy rain. 2) Tornadoes which are very fast and strong columns of air rotating in circles above land. Storms happen when there is very strong wind and extreme weather.
Properties of liquids and gases
Liquids and gases take the shape of their container, unlike solids which do not. Volume is defined as the space occupied by matter, and can be measured using tools like measuring cups. Common units for measuring volume include liters and milliliters.
What are the properties of a solid
Solids have their own definite shapes and do not change shape when moved or turned over. Examples of solids include rocks, books, toys, and other everyday objects. Solids maintain their own shapes rather than taking the shape of whatever container they are placed in.
How do ecosystems compare?
The document compares different ecosystems by describing their climates and key characteristics. Forest ecosystems discussed include tropical rainforests, which are hot and wet year-round, supporting many species, and temperate forests, which experience distinct seasons from warm summers to cold winters. Deserts have hot, dry climates that animals and plants like camels and cacti adapt to for survival. Wetlands are areas covered by water most of the year and act as buffers against flooding. Oceans represent the largest ecosystem and most marine life resides in the sunlit, shallow waters near the surface.
How animals behave in diff weather
This document discusses how different pets react to different weather conditions. It notes that in winter, dogs and cats curl up to stay warm while birds fluff their feathers. It states that in summer, dogs try to lay on the ground or swim to stay cool. The document also mentions that cats can sense when it is about to rain and run to hide because they are afraid of water, and birds hide in trees when it rains and can sense when storms are coming.
Food chains and food webs
This document discusses food chains and food webs. It explains that living things get energy from food and this energy passes from one organism to another in a food chain, which always starts with a plant and shows the flow of energy. A food web is made up of interconnected food chains, as organisms can be eaten by more than one other organism.
What is mass?
The document discusses mass and defines it as the amount of matter in an object. It then provides examples of asking about the mass of different objects like a box of toys, bag, lunchbox, and bottle of water. For each, it states that the mass is the amount of whatever is inside - toys, books, food, or water. The document concludes by comparing the mass of different objects, noting that a rock has more mass than paper, a balloon has less mass than a book, and a desk has more mass than a feather.
How can we measure mass
This document discusses different units of measurement including years for age, centimeters for length, and grams/kilograms for mass or weight, as illustrated through examples of a boy's age in years, the length of a ruler in centimeters, and the weight of a book in grams.
States of matter
There are three states of matter: solids, which are hard objects like rocks; liquids, which are flowy and take the shape of their container like water and soda; and gases, which have no fixed shape and are between solids and liquids, like air.
Matter and it's properties
Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. Matter comes in different textures like soft, hard, fuzzy, smooth, or rough. It also comes in various shapes, colors, and some things have distinctive smells that can be good or bad.
What do animals need to survive
Animals need four things to survive: food, water, oxygen, and shelter. Food provides nutrients for animals to grow, water is also vital for survival, oxygen is required for breathing, and shelter offers a safe place for animals to live. Different types of animal shelters include kennels, stables, beehives, nests, and aquariums.
Herbivores, carnivores and omnivores
This document discusses three categories of animals based on their diets: herbivores, which eat only plants; carnivores, which eat only meat; and omnivores, which eat both plants and meat. Herbivores include deer, rabbits, elephants, turtles, monkeys and giraffes. Carnivores include lions, crocodiles, snakes and eagles. Omnivores include bears, raccoons, pigs, and humans.

Anti-Universe And Emergent Gravity and the Dark Universe
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law for entanglement entropy. The extension to de Sitter space requires taking into account the entropy and temperature associated with the cosmological horizon. Using insights from string theory, black hole physics and quantum information theory we argue that the positive dark energy leads to a thermal volume law contribution to the entropy that overtakes the area law precisely at the cosmological horizon. Due to the competition between area and volume law entanglement the microscopic de Sitter states do not thermalise at sub-Hubble scales: they exhibit memory effects in the form of an entropy displacement caused by matter. The emergent laws of gravity contain an additional ‘dark’ gravitational force describing the ‘elastic’ response due to the entropy displacement. We derive an estimate of the strength of this extra force in terms of the baryonic mass, Newton’s constant and the Hubble acceleration scale a0 = cH0, and provide evidence for the fact that this additional ‘dark gravity force’ explains the observed phenomena in galaxies and clusters currently attributed to dark matter.

TOPIC OF DISCUSSION: CENTRIFUGATION SLIDESHARE.pptx
Centrifugation is a powerful technique used in laboratories to separate components of a heterogeneous mixture based on their density. This process utilizes centrifugal force to rapidly spin samples, causing denser particles to migrate outward more quickly than lighter ones. As a result, distinct layers form within the sample tube, allowing for easy isolation and purification of target substances.
Evidence of Jet Activity from the Secondary Black Hole in the OJ 287 Binary S...
Wereport the study of a huge optical intraday flare on 2021 November 12 at 2 a.m. UT in the blazar OJ287. In the binary black hole model, it is associated with an impact of the secondary black hole on the accretion disk of the primary. Our multifrequency observing campaign was set up to search for such a signature of the impact based on a prediction made 8 yr earlier. The first I-band results of the flare have already been reported by Kishore et al. (2024). Here we combine these data with our monitoring in the R-band. There is a big change in the R–I spectral index by 1.0 ±0.1 between the normal background and the flare, suggesting a new component of radiation. The polarization variation during the rise of the flare suggests the same. The limits on the source size place it most reasonably in the jet of the secondary BH. We then ask why we have not seen this phenomenon before. We show that OJ287 was never before observed with sufficient sensitivity on the night when the flare should have happened according to the binary model. We also study the probability that this flare is just an oversized example of intraday variability using the Krakow data set of intense monitoring between 2015 and 2023. We find that the occurrence of a flare of this size and rapidity is unlikely. In machine-readable Tables 1 and 2, we give the full orbit-linked historical light curve of OJ287 as well as the dense monitoring sample of Krakow.
SDSS1335+0728: The awakening of a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole⋆
Context. The early-type galaxy SDSS J133519.91+072807.4 (hereafter SDSS1335+0728), which had exhibited no prior optical variations during the preceding two decades, began showing significant nuclear variability in the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) alert stream from December 2019 (as ZTF19acnskyy). This variability behaviour, coupled with the host-galaxy properties, suggests that SDSS1335+0728 hosts a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole (BH) that is currently in the process of ‘turning on’. Aims. We present a multi-wavelength photometric analysis and spectroscopic follow-up performed with the aim of better understanding the origin of the nuclear variations detected in SDSS1335+0728. Methods. We used archival photometry (from WISE, 2MASS, SDSS, GALEX, eROSITA) and spectroscopic data (from SDSS and LAMOST) to study the state of SDSS1335+0728 prior to December 2019, and new observations from Swift, SOAR/Goodman, VLT/X-shooter, and Keck/LRIS taken after its turn-on to characterise its current state. We analysed the variability of SDSS1335+0728 in the X-ray/UV/optical/mid-infrared range, modelled its spectral energy distribution prior to and after December 2019, and studied the evolution of its UV/optical spectra. Results. From our multi-wavelength photometric analysis, we find that: (a) since 2021, the UV flux (from Swift/UVOT observations) is four times brighter than the flux reported by GALEX in 2004; (b) since June 2022, the mid-infrared flux has risen more than two times, and the W1−W2 WISE colour has become redder; and (c) since February 2024, the source has begun showing X-ray emission. From our spectroscopic follow-up, we see that (i) the narrow emission line ratios are now consistent with a more energetic ionising continuum; (ii) broad emission lines are not detected; and (iii) the [OIII] line increased its flux ∼ 3.6 years after the first ZTF alert, which implies a relatively compact narrow-line-emitting region. Conclusions. We conclude that the variations observed in SDSS1335+0728 could be either explained by a ∼ 106M⊙ AGN that is just turning on or by an exotic tidal disruption event (TDE). If the former is true, SDSS1335+0728 is one of the strongest cases of an AGNobserved in the process of activating. If the latter were found to be the case, it would correspond to the longest and faintest TDE ever observed (or another class of still unknown nuclear transient). Future observations of SDSS1335+0728 are crucial to further understand its behaviour. Key words. galaxies: active– accretion, accretion discs– galaxies: individual: SDSS J133519.91+072807.4

JAMES WEBB STUDY THE MASSIVE BLACK HOLE SEEDS
The pathway(s) to seeding the massive black holes (MBHs) that exist at the heart of galaxies in the present and distant Universe remains an unsolved problem. Here we categorise, describe and quantitatively discuss the formation pathways of both light and heavy seeds. We emphasise that the most recent computational models suggest that rather than a bimodal-like mass spectrum between light and heavy seeds with light at one end and heavy at the other that instead a continuum exists. Light seeds being more ubiquitous and the heavier seeds becoming less and less abundant due the rarer environmental conditions required for their formation. We therefore examine the different mechanisms that give rise to different seed mass spectrums. We show how and why the mechanisms that produce the heaviest seeds are also among the rarest events in the Universe and are hence extremely unlikely to be the seeds for the vast majority of the MBH population. We quantify, within the limits of the current large uncertainties in the seeding processes, the expected number densities of the seed mass spectrum. We argue that light seeds must be at least 103 to 105 times more numerous than heavy seeds to explain the MBH population as a whole. Based on our current understanding of the seed population this makes heavy seeds (Mseed > 103 M⊙) a significantly more likely pathway given that heavy seeds have an abundance pattern than is close to and likely in excess of 10−4 compared to light seeds. Finally, we examine the current state-of-the-art in numerical calculations and recent observations and plot a path forward for near-future advances in both domains.
