Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.
The increased availability of biomedical data, particularly in the public domain, offers the opportunity to better understand human health and to develop effective therapeutics for a wide range of unmet medical needs. However, data scientists remain stymied by the fact that data remain hard to find and to productively reuse because data and their metadata i) are wholly inaccessible, ii) are in non-standard or incompatible representations, iii) do not conform to community standards, and iv) have unclear or highly restricted terms and conditions that preclude legitimate reuse. These limitations require a rethink on data can be made machine and AI-ready - the key motivation behind the FAIR Guiding Principles. Concurrently, while recent efforts have explored the use of deep learning to fuse disparate data into predictive models for a wide range of biomedical applications, these models often fail even when the correct answer is already known, and fail to explain individual predictions in terms that data scientists can appreciate. These limitations suggest that new methods to produce practical artificial intelligence are still needed.
In this talk, I will discuss our work in (1) building an integrative knowledge infrastructure to prepare FAIR and "AI-ready" data and services along with (2) neurosymbolic AI methods to improve the quality of predictions and to generate plausible explanations. Attention is given to standards, platforms, and methods to wrangle knowledge into simple, but effective semantic and latent representations, and to make these available into standards-compliant and discoverable interfaces that can be used in model building, validation, and explanation. Our work, and those of others in the field, creates a baseline for building trustworthy and easy to deploy AI models in biomedicine.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.

2. Nomenclature?
Giving names to plants, algae and fungi.
How we give names to plants?
International Code of Nomenclature for algae,
fungi, and plants (ICN)
(Earlier International Code of Botanical Nomenclature, ICBN)
What we can name by using ICN?
Land plants, "algae," and fungi (+slime molds, water
molds)
3. Scientific name?
The names assigned by the rules of the ICN
In Latin language
Usually italicized or underlined, or bolded
E.g., Hubbardia, Jansenella, Apluda
4. Binomials
E.g., Themeda pseudotremula Potdar, Salunkhe & S.R.Yadav
Themeda = genus name (capitalized)
pseudotremula =
Themeda pseudotremula = species name
Potdar, Salunkhe & S.R.Yadav = authors
Linnaeus: consistently used binomials
specific epithet (not capitalized)
5. Basic Concepts and Terms
Name vs. Taxon
Gathering and specimen
Description and diagnosis
Protologue
6. Legitimate Names: in accordance with the rules of the ICN
Illegitimate Names: violate one or more rules of the ICN
Homonyms
Isonyms
Circumscription
Tautonyms
= a heterotypic synonym, based on a different type
≡ a homotypic synonym, based on the same type
7. ICN Governs two basic activities:
1) Naming new taxa
2) Determining the correct name for previously
named taxa
8. Principles of Plant Nomenclature
1) Botanical nomenclature is independent of Zoological
and Bacteriological nomenclature.
2) The application of botanical names is determined by
means of nomenclatural types.
3) Botanical nomenclature is based upon priority of
publication.
9. 4) Each taxon of a particular circumscription, position, and rank
can have only one correct name, the earliest in accordance with
the rules. [=Fundamental Principle!]
5) Scientific names are treated as Latin.
6) The rules and regulations of the International Code of
Botanical Nomenclature are retroactive.
10. Why not Common names?
1) Scientific names are universal, used the same world-wide.
2) Common names are not consistent.
a) A taxon may have more than one common name (e.g
Woodbine, Morning Glory for Ipomoea)
b) One common name to more than one taxon (e.g., “Salai”
(Konkani) for Aporosa lindleyana and Ehretia indica).
3) Common names tell nothing about rank; scientific names do.
4) Many, if not most, organisms have no common name in any
language.
11. Rank?
Hierarchical classification in which a higher rank
is inclusive of all lower ranks.
Position?
Placement of a taxon as a member within particular genus or species
E.g., Apluda & Cyperus of same rank (genus) but different positions
(Poaceae & Cyperaceae)
12. What are the ranks?
Kingdom (various) Plantae
Phylum [Division] -phyta Magnoliophyta
Subphylum [Subdivision] -phytina Magnoliophytina

the name
Poaceae Barnhart
Pooideae Benth.

Themeda
Man Kai (in Tamil) and fera: bearing
Moringo: Malyalam
Latin apluda is for chaff or bran. Nature of involucres

19. Usually herbarium specimen .
Permanently associated with a name.
Holotype - primary specimen upon which a name is based,
designated at the time of publication.
Isotype - duplicate of the holotype, collected at the same time by the
same person from the same place.
Lectotype - selected from the original material to serve as the type
when holotype not available.

Nomina familiarum conservanda
Nomina generica conservanda et rejicienda
Nomina species conservanda
Species Plantarum by Linnaeus in 1753
(with exceptions)
Name published first is the legitimate one
How to correct?
30. Two reasons for name change?
1) Name contrary to the rules (illegitimate).
2) Additional research has changed definition and
delimitation of a taxon.
33. Four major ways that names are changed?
United
Divided
Changed in rank
Changed in Position
34. Names may be united:
Name changes:
E.g., Sarcostemma and Cynanchum (Apocynaceae) have been united
into one genus, Cynanchum
Sarcostemma Cynanchum
35. Name may be divided:
E.g., Cleome (Cleomaceae) split into Cleome,
Corynandra, and Cleoserrata
Name changes:
Cleome Corynandra Cleoserrata
36. Name may be changed in position:
Name changes:
E.g., Ceropegia brevitubulata transferred to the genus Brachystelma.
The new species Brachystelma brevitubulatum.
Brachystelma brevitubulatum.
37. Name changes:
E.g., Ceropegia biflora
changed to rank of variety: Ceropegia candelabrum var. biflora
Ceropegia candelabrum Ceropegia candelabrum var. biflora
38. What is a basionym?
The “name bearing” name.
The original (possibly now rejected) name, part of
which (the epithet) has been used in a new
combination.
Person(s) who named basionym. Retained!
Author(s) in parentheses?
39. Basionym
E.g., Clerodendrum serratum was transferred to the genus
Rotheca by Steane & Mabberley, new species name is:
Rotheca serrata (L.) Steane & Mabb.
[Note: Volkameria serrata L. is the basionym]
Pogostemon deccanensis (Panigrahi) Press
(Eusteralis deccanensis Panigrahi =basionym)
40. What is an autonym?
Automatically created name for infrafamilial,
infrageneric, and infraspecific taxa.
Created when taxa are divided.
Assigned based on priority of publication.
Autonyms have no authors.
41. Autonyms:
E.g., Ceropegia bulbosa Roxb.
Ceropegia bulbosa Roxb. var. bulbosa
Ceropegia bulbosa Roxb. Var. lushii (Graham) Hook.f.
Apluda mutica L. var. mutica
Apluda mutica var. major (Hack.) R.K. Jain
42. What are the main criteria of valid publication?
1) Name must be effectively published
= in a journal generally available to botanists
As of 1 Jan 2012:
Electronic material published online in Portable
Document Format (PDF) with an International
Standard Serial Number (ISSN) or an International
Standard Book Number (ISBN) will constitute
effective publication
43. What are the main criteria of valid publication?
2) Name must be published in the correct form, properly
Latinized with the correct rank ending.
3) Name must be published with a Latin description or
diagnosis or with a reference to such.
[Vernacular description typically included.]
As of 1 Jan 2012:
A description or diagnosis may be in either Latin or
English.
44. What are the main criteria of valid publication?
4) Rank must be indicated (e.g., “sp. nov.,” “subsp. nov.,”
or “var. nov.”)
5) Nomenclatural type must be indicated (for genus and
below).
48. What is a synonym?
= a rejected name, by a particular author or authors.
Synonyms usually indicated in brackets; e.g.,
Brachystelma brevitubulatum (Bedd.) Gamble[Ceropegia
brevitubulata Bedd.]
1) because illegitimate.
2) because of taxonomic judgment.
Why rejected?
49. Two types of synonyms:
E.g., Brachystelma brevitubulatum (Bedd.)
Gamble
[Ceropegia brevitubulata Bedd.]
1) Homotypic (nomenclatural) – based on the same
type specimen
E.g., Andrographis beddomei C.B. Clarke 1884
[Andrographis nallamalayana J.L. Ellis(1967)]
1) Heterotypic (taxonomic) – based on a different
type specimen
51. What is a correct name?
A legitimate (and therefore validly published) name
that is accepted by a particular author or authors.
Each taxon can have only one correct name.
How can a name be legitimate but not correct?
There may be 2 (or more) alternative,
legitimate names.
Only one of these can be correct
(in any given work).
52. What is a homonym?
= synonym identical to accepted, correct name.
E.g.: Vicia gigantea Hook., 1831 [Vicia gigantea Bunge,1833]
= binomial in which genus and specific epithets are identical
in spelling.
Tautonyms are not permitted by the ICN!
E.g., Themeda themeda would be a tautonym and illegitimate.
Ziziphus zizyphus (L.) H. Karst. (Jujube) is not a tautonym and is
permitted.
What is a tautonym?
53. Abbreviations:
"in" = "in the publication of”
Amorphophallus commutatus var. anshiensis Punekar in
Punekar and Lakshminarasimhan.
"ex" = "validly published by.”
comb. nov. (combinatio nova) means a new nomenclatural
combination
E.g., Decalepis khasiana (Kurz) Ionta ex Kambale
May be abbrev.: Decalepis khasiana Kambale
54. Abbreviations:
s.l. (sensu lato) means “in the broad sense”
E .g. Apocynaceae s.l.
s.s. or s.str. (sensu stricto) means “in the narrow sense”
E.g. Asclepiadaceae s.s.
E.g.,
Boraginaceae s.l. includes the families Hydrophyllaceae,
Ehretiaceae, Heliotropaceae, Cordiaceae, and others
Boraginaceae s.s. does not (those families are separate)
55. Abbreviations
"x" = a hybrid.
E.g., Salvia x palmeri (A. Gray) Greene

"sp. nov." = species novum
E.g., “Aponogeton bruggenii sp. nov."
"cf." = confer, meaning "compare.”
E.g., "Calyptridium cf. monandrum” (meaning check this
specimens of species for confirmation)
aff. (affine) means “related to”
56. auct. non (auctorum non) means “not of these authors,” referring to a
“misapplied” name, such that the type specimen of the name does not fall
within the circumscription of the taxon being referred to by that name
emend. (emendatio) means a correction or amendment
et is Latin for “and”
sp. nov. (species nova) means a new species
gen. nov. (genus novum) means a new genus
nom. nov. (nomen novum) means a new name, e.g., proposed as a
substitute for an older name (e.g., an illegitimate homonym, in which
case the older name serves as the type for the new one)
nom. nud. (nomen nudum) means published without a description or
diagnosis, making the name invalid.
57. non is Latin for “not”
nom. cons. (nomen conservandum) means a conserved name
stat. nov. (status novus) means a change in rank, e.g., elevating a varietal
name to specific status

vide (video) means to cite a reference
X indicates a hybrid
! (symbol for vidi, “I have seen it”) can mean a) a confirmation of a name, as
on an annotation label agreeing with the name on the original herbarium
label; or b) indication that a specimen (usually a type) has been seen by the
author in a publication
Eg. Chandore 3031 K!, BM!
58. n. v. (non visus) is Latin for “not seen,” typically meaning that
authors did not see a specimen, such as a type.
orth. cons. (orthographia conservanda) means a conserved spelling
59. Gender of the generic names:
General rule
"-us" ending: masculine: Phaseolus, Helianthus, Hibiscus,
"-a”, “is”, “es”, ending: feminine: Rosa, Brassica, Oryza, Carota,
Coffea. Aerides, etc.
"-um" ending: neuter: Triticum, Coriandrum, Psidium
Exceptions: 1) The "-ma" ending generic names of Greek origin may be
neuter or feminine:
e.g.,
Neuter: Abroma, Aneilema, Arisaema, Megastigma, Melastoma,
Theobroma, Trema, Zygnema (alga) and Brachystelma
Feminine: Hedeoma, Callicoma, Meliosma, Radiopalma and Ceropegia
Note: Only adjectival epithets need to match their genders with
the gender of the genus name.
60. Exercises on gender endings
1. Ceropegia manoharii Sujanapal, P.M.Salim, Anil Kumar &
Sasidh.
The epithet "manoharii" is NOT a Latin term (but is Latinized).
2. Barleria prattensis Santapau
3. Crinum pratense Herb.
4. Polygonum plebeium R. Br. var. indica (Heyne ex Roth) Hook. f.
5. Balanophora elkinsi Blatt.

"-ar", "-ir", "-or", and "-ur" endings are treated as consonants.
Therefore, we add 2 "i"
10. Sporobolus helvola T.Durand & Schinz
