Sexual addiction is characterized by a lack of control over sexual thoughts, urges, and behaviors. It can affect people of any gender from age 16 onward. While there is no proven single cause, it may have biological, psychological, and social roots. Biologically, pleasurable activities like sex release dopamine in the brain, and dopamine becomes addictive, potentially leading to sexual addiction. Emotionally, sexual addiction can cause shame, guilt, anger, depression, and social consequences. Treatment involves therapy, counseling, recovery groups and activities, and sometimes medications.

Hypersexual
Hypersexual disorder is characterized by repeatedly engaging in sexual fantasies, urges or behaviors in response to stressful life events, boredom or depression leading to impaired social or occupational functioning. It must persist for at least six months and not be caused by substances. Signs include compulsive masturbation, multiple affairs, unsafe sex, cybersex, and obsessions with unattainable partners. Causes may include abuse history, genetics, medical conditions or abnormal hormone levels. Treatment involves psychotherapy, medication and support groups.

His psychiatric history includes bipolar 1 disorder, cannabis use disorder, and an unspecified paraphilic disorder. The formulation considers biological, psychological, social, and behavioral factors contributing to his condition. Treatment recommendations include continued medication management, psychotherapy, medical monitoring, and initiating androgen deprivation therapy to reduce sex drive and compulsivity.
Overcoming Addiction Lecture Applying 5 Actions
Nothing happens until you DO something, until you take ACTION. The drive to act begins with motivation. What is it? How do you get it? How do you keep it going?
The roots of addiction go much deeper than the adaptive behaviors that so often are the focus of intervention efforts. This is because dealing with the symptoms (addictions) are easier than dealing with the root causes. I have long believed that addiction is a problem best managed over time like other chronic illnesses. But successful management necessitates addressing what drives the addictive behavior in the first place.

The document discusses statistics on juvenile arrests and profiles of female juvenile offenders. Younger ages of initial offending are associated with more serious and persistent crimes later on. Factors contributing to female juvenile offending include poverty, family dysfunction, lack of opportunities, abuse, mental health issues, low self-esteem, poor academic performance, substance abuse, and living in high-crime areas. Rates of offending are higher among African American and Hispanic females. Early signs include being a victim of abuse, self-harm behaviors, poor school performance, and associating with delinquent peers.

This document discusses common mental health issues among adolescents including sensation seeking, drug use, eating disorders, depression, and suicide. Sensation seeking behaviors are influenced by peer pressure and can include reckless activities like binge drinking. Drug use, especially alcohol, marijuana, and tobacco, typically begins in the early teens and is socially motivated. Eating disorders like bulimia and anorexia are linked to pressures to attain unrealistic body images portrayed in media. Depression affects up to 25% of teens and can be triggered by stress, family dynamics, and low self-esteem. Suicidal thoughts are a risk during depressive episodes and completing suicide is more common in teen boys though attempts are more frequent in girls. Early intervention is important to treat

Lack of libido in men
Loss of libido, or decreased sex drive, is common and can affect about 1 in 5 men and more women at some point in their lives. Common causes include relationship problems, stress, depression, drugs/alcohol, aging, hormonal imbalances, medical conditions, and certain medications. As people age, sex hormone levels decline which can reduce libido, and conditions like depression or medications for depression can also negatively impact sex drive. Relationship issues, stress, exhaustion, depression, excess alcohol, medical conditions, and some medications are among the most frequent causes of low libido.

Gender and aging presentation
The document summarizes several studies on sexuality among older adults. Study 1 found that most elderly adults wanted to maintain sexual relationships. Study 2 found that fewer older adults rated sex as important compared to younger groups, and women were more likely than men to say sex was unimportant. Study 3 identified lack of a partner and physical/health issues as major barriers to sexuality among older adults. Dementia can also impact intimacy and sexuality within marital relationships in complex ways.

Substance Abuse and Addiction
Drug addiction is a chronic disease characterized by drug seeking and use that is compulsive, or difficult to control, despite harmful consequences.
Brain changes that occur over time with drug use challenge an addicted person’s self-control and interfere with their ability to resist intense urges to take drugs. This is why drug addiction is also a relapsing disease.
Relapse is the return to drug use after an attempt to stop. Relapse indicates the need for more or different treatment.
Most drugs affect the brain's reward circuit by flooding it with the chemical messenger dopamine. This overstimulation of the reward circuit causes the intensely pleasurable "high" that leads people to take a drug again and again.
First segment can in ok 2009 for otac
In Oklahoma, a child is reported abused or neglected every ten seconds. In 2008, over 11,000 children were confirmed victims of abuse or neglect in the state. Neglect, which includes failure to provide basic needs, is the highest form of child maltreatment in Oklahoma. Substance abuse by caregivers is a major contributing factor to neglect cases. Child abuse and neglect can have long-term negative health impacts, with survivors at greater risk for problems like low academic achievement, drug use, and criminal behavior.
Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD) in Men
This document defines Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD) in men and discusses its epidemiology, physiology, etiology, assessment, and treatment. HSDD is characterized by persistently low sexual desire, absent sexual thoughts or fantasies, and lack of responsive desire lasting at least 6 months. It can be lifelong or acquired, generalized or situational. Potential causes include depression, stress, medical conditions, and certain medications. Treatment involves a biopsychosocial approach including counseling, medication management, lifestyle changes, and addressing relationship factors.

This document discusses common mental health issues among adolescents including sensation seeking behaviors, drug use, eating disorders, depression, and suicide. It notes that peer pressure and media influences can encourage risky behaviors like binge drinking and drug use in adolescents. Eating disorders are also prevalent as teens feel pressure to meet ideals of thinness. Depression affects around 25% of young women and 12.5% of young men, and can be related to family dynamics and genetics. Suicidal thoughts are often formed during depressive episodes, and suicide risks include depression, personality disorders, and life stressors. Early recognition and treatment of mental health issues in teens is important.
SA101 Week 1 - What is addiction
Addiction is characterized as a chronic disease that involves dysfunction in brain circuits related to reward, motivation, and memory. This leads to an individual pathologically pursuing reward and relief through substance use and other behaviors. Addiction is defined by an inability to abstain consistently, impaired behavioral control, craving, diminished awareness of problems caused by one's behaviors, and dysfunctional emotional responses. Without treatment, addiction progresses and can result in disability or death. Relapse is the return to addictive behaviors and substance use after attempting abstention, while a slip up involves a brief return to use without full relapse.
SA 101 What is addiction
Addiction is characterized as a chronic disease involving dysfunctions in the brain's reward system that compels pathological pursuing of reward and relief through substance use and other behaviors. It is characterized by an inability to abstain consistently, impaired control over behaviors, craving, diminished awareness of problems, and dysfunctional emotional responses. Without treatment, addiction progresses and can result in disability or death. It involves cognitive changes like preoccupation with substance use and distorted perceptions of use, as well as emotional changes like increased anxiety and sensitivity to stress. Relapse can involve a return to addictive behaviors for extended periods, while slip-ups involve brief usage. The DSM-5 is used to diagnose and classify addiction and its stages of remission.

Non-Physical Violence 8.12.2014
Non-physical abuse, also called psychological or emotional abuse, involves traumatic acts or coercive tactics that harm a person's mental well-being. It can occur between intimate partners, family members, or others. Some indicators include controlling behavior, verbal abuse, rigid gender roles, social isolation, and a history of abuse. Those experiencing non-physical abuse are also at risk for physical abuse and negative health outcomes like depression. Intervention strategies aim to promote safety, empowerment, and access to support resources.
Aging And Sexual Function
This document discusses aging and sexual function. It notes that as people live longer, more remain sexually active in late life. The five stages of sexual response are described. Common age-related changes are then outlined for both men and women, including declining testosterone levels in men and menopausal changes in women. Late life sexual dysfunctions are often multifactorial, caused by medical issues, medications, or psychological factors. Evaluation and treatments are discussed for common problems like low sexual desire, pain with penetration, and difficulty reaching orgasm. Maintaining open communication and understanding of changes can help couples have satisfying sexual relationships in late life.
Teenage Alcohol Abuse
Teenage alcohol abuse can progress through several stages, starting with experimentation and learning tolerance levels. For most teens it becomes social use, where drinking is planned and associated positively. However, for some it advances to abuse where amounts increase, activities are replaced by drinking, and harmful consequences occur but use continues. The most severe cases become addiction, where lifestyle revolves around alcohol and one is incapable of quitting. Teenage alcohol abuse can result in behavioral, physical, and memory problems, as well as legal and health consequences that disrupt normal growth and development.

Mood disorders are characterized by serious changes in mood that disrupt daily life. The three major types are depressive disorder, manic disorder, and bipolar disorder. Depressive disorder involves depressed mood, while mania or hypomania involve elevated moods. Substance use disorder, especially alcohol abuse, is more common in men with mood disorders than women. People with bipolar disorder and substance use disorders tend to have an earlier onset of both conditions and more hospitalizations. The causes of mood disorders involve biological and genetic factors as well as trauma and substance abuse.
Female alcoholism
This document discusses women's drinking habits and the risks of alcohol consumption. It notes that more women are drinking now than in the past. Women who are more likely to drink include those with a family history of drinking, a partner who drinks heavily, a history of depression or abuse, and an ability to "hold their liquor" better than others. The document also explains that women get drunker than men after drinking the same amount due to having less muscle, water, and a slower alcohol metabolism from hormones like estrogen. It provides tips for quitting drinking and recommendations that women have no more than one drink per day for health or three drinks per day for safety.

Prima giornata del Laboratorio dal Basso: Alter Ego del Web. Il prof. Cesare Guerreschi di Bolzano ci illustra le nuove dipendenze
Narcissism & Sexual Addiction
Early attachment disturbances and trauma can lead to narcissism and addiction as coping mechanisms for emotional needs. Shame, from not having dependency needs met as a child, is a core belief for many addicts. Healthy relationships and intimacy through recovery can help meet needs in a healthy way and reduce shame. Therapists must confront, contain, educate, and work within the relationship to help clients replace addictions with healthy coping skills.

Le dipendenze comportamentali. AP incontra del 28_4_15
Le dipendenze comportamentali sono un fenomeno che sempre più sta affiancando, se non superando, le dipendenze “classiche” con sostanza.
Durate l’incontro sarà possibile conoscere il nuovo panorama delle dipendenze senza sostanza:
- Internet e device addiction
- Dipendenze affettive
- Shopping o accumulo compulsivo
- Workaholism
- Sex addiction
Cosa hanno in comune con le dipendenze “classiche”? Perché sono considerate dipendenze? Quali sono gli strumenti psicologici per affrontarle?
Disturbo da gioco d’azzardo: aspetti biopsicosociali e normative vigenti
Quanto è vera ancora oggi questa frase! E’ tanto più vera quanto più ci avviciniamo dal gioco ricreazionale a quello patologico. Non più vizio, ma mera malattia nella società post-moderna, dove l’alienazione è l’effetto collaterale tra i più disastrosi del consumismo che crea bisogni continui di riempire i vuoti creati dal desiderio di beni da consumare arrivando alla “coazione a ripetere”: dallo “star bene con” allo “star male senza”, vere e proprie “distorsioni dello stile cognitivo”.
Nell’ultima edizione del DSM V, il Disturbo da Gioco d’Azzardo (Gambling Disorder) assume una sua specifica posizione: da patologia del controllo degli impulsi gli viene riconosciuto lo status di dipendenza comportamentale. Questo è un importante cambiamento epistemologico che evidenzia le analogie, confermate dall’evidenze scientifiche, tra il gambling e le dipendenze chimiche. La questione ha rilevanza clinica in quanto autorizza i professionisti del settore ad applicare al gambling patologico strumenti di assessment e terapeutici propri dei programmi per l'addiction supportati anche dal Decreto- Balduzzi che con la legge 189/2012 (c.d. Decreto Balduzzi) attua importanti interventi in materia di tutela della salute ed organizzazione del Servizio Sanitario Nazionale. Vengono varate, per la prima volta in Italia, norme a favore della cura e della prevenzione del gioco d’azzardo patologico. Il primo punto qualificante del “decreto Balduzzi” su questa materia è costituito dal riconoscimento del gioco d’azzardo patologico come una malattia inserita nell’elenco dei livelli essenziali di assistenza (LEA).
Juvenile Addiction-Basketball Diaries
This presentation was based on a graduate level Addictions class requirement. The assignment asked students to chose a movie or television show as a group that illustrates the theme of addiction through one of the main characters. First the students will determine a diagnosis of one of the characters in the movie. In addition, students will be required to provide a treatment plan. The group presentation should (1) include a detailed client description, including the issues of concern. It should be evident that a mental status exam was completed, (2) reflect a thorough understanding of the client’s bio/psycho/social profile, (3) reflect any culturally relevant information that may impact the course of treatment and addiction, (4) provide some psychoeducation on the client’s drug of choice, and (5) develop an effective treatment plan for the addiction. Your chosen treatment plan and interventions should be reflective of best practice and be empirically supported.

HUMAN SEXUALITY AND SEXUAL DYSFUNCTIONS (1).pptx
Human Sexuality - Normal sexuality, normal sexual response, sexual identity and orientation and sexual dysfunctions with treatment - female sexual arousal disorder, anorgasmia, ejaculatory dysfunction, male hypoactive sexual desire disorder
Dark moon copy
This document discusses various adolescent addictions such as drugs, food, video games, pornography, self-injury and their effects on brain development. It notes that the prefrontal cortex, nucleus accumbens and limbic system undergo changes during puberty and adolescence, and these areas are affected by addictions. Family dynamics, stress, lack of coping skills, and perceptions of an uncertain future can contribute to the development of addictions in teens. The document provides an overview of signs, risks and impacts of specific addictions.
Sexual disorders
The document discusses human sexuality and sexual disorders across the lifespan. It begins by defining sexuality and noting it reflects the totality of the person. It then outlines typical sexual development from ages 2 to adulthood. In adolescence, puberty causes biological changes like breast development and menstruation in girls and facial hair growth and deepening voice in boys. Adulthood involves complete sexual maturity. The document then discusses various sexual disorders like paraphilias, which involve non-consenting or unusual stimuli for arousal. It provides examples like exhibitionism, fetishism, voyeurism and pedophilia. It concludes by covering sexual dysfunction disorders and treatments like psychotherapy and medication.
Psychogenic impotence assessment and approach
Psychogenic impotence, also known as erectile dysfunction, has various potential causes including performance anxiety, relationship issues, medical conditions, and psychological factors. It is important to conduct a thorough sexual history and examination to determine if the cause is organic or psychogenic. Treatment may involve lifestyle changes, psychotherapy to reduce anxiety, cognitive behavioral therapy, and medications like PDE5 inhibitors. A multidisciplinary approach including medical treatment, counseling, and lifestyle modifications often provides the best outcomes.

1) The document discusses integrating a trauma-informed approach in behavioral health settings. It covers topics like adverse childhood experiences, trauma and its effects across the lifespan, neglect, and resilience.
2) Studies like the Adverse Childhood Experiences study show strong links between childhood trauma, like abuse and neglect, and negative health and social outcomes later in life. Individuals with higher ACE scores are likelier to struggle with mental health, addiction, and physical health issues.
3) Understanding trauma and its widespread impacts is important for behavioral health professionals. A trauma-informed approach can help address the "whole person" and improve outcomes.
Karaban acad 1 - module 1/7
This document discusses mental illness, including definitions, prevalence, stigma, and treatment. It provides statistics showing that approximately 1 in 6 Americans have a serious mental illness. Common disorders include depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, ADHD, and personality disorders. Substance abuse is also discussed, with nearly 9% of Americans misusing drugs or alcohol. The document addresses the stigma surrounding mental illness and how people may react by avoiding treatment or concealing their status. Finally, it covers treatment options and barriers to care, noting that untreated mental illness costs over $100 billion per year.
Adolescent sa issues
This document discusses substance use among adolescents and teens. Some key points:
- 31% of those under 21 binge drink once a month, 80% drink, 70% smoke, 47% use marijuana, and 29% use other drugs. 2 million aged 12-17 have tried huffing.
- 25% of parents provide alcohol to their kids aged 12-20, and 25% allow drinking in the last 6 months.
- 80% of juveniles 10-17 have a substance abuse issue, 75% also have a mental disorder, and 92% of those using test positive for marijuana. Only 3.6% of those needing treatment receive it.
- Depression is more common in girls after pub
Sexual disorder
This document discusses sexual dysfunction and normal sexuality. It begins by defining normal sexuality and outlining the four phases of the physiological sexual response cycle: desire, excitement, orgasm, and resolution. It then defines sexual dysfunction and outlines its classification according to the DSM-5, including desire, arousal, orgasm, sexual pain disorders, and those due to medical conditions. Specific disorders like male hypoactive sexual desire disorder and female sexual interest/arousal disorder are then discussed in more detail such as their criteria, contributing factors, risk factors, and treatment options involving somatic and psychosocial approaches.

Ace Train the Trainer Presentation
Strong communities that provide nurturing relationships and safe environments for children can help break intergenerational cycles of adversity and toxic stress. Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) such as abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction are surprisingly common and have been shown to contribute to social, cognitive, and physical impairments that often last a lifetime if not addressed. Preventing ACEs through community-level efforts to support families and early intervention programs can help reduce long-term health costs and improve outcomes for children.
Approach to homosexuality
1. Several major psychiatric associations removed homosexuality from their diagnostic manuals in the 1970s after determining it does not constitute a mental illness.
2. Sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender roles are distinct but related concepts that develop from a combination of biological, psychological, and socio-cultural factors.
3. When evaluating individuals with concerns regarding their sexual orientation or gender identity, clinicians should conduct a thorough assessment, consider any comorbid conditions, and provide support, counseling, and medical care as appropriate without attempting to change the individual's orientation or identity.
Sexual disorders
This document discusses sexual disorders as classified by DSM-5. It covers four main types: sexual dysfunctions, gender identity disorders, psychological disorders associated with sexual development, and paraphilias (disorders of sexual preference). Specific dysfunctions discussed in detail include male hypoactive sexual desire disorder, female sexual interest/arousal disorder, erectile disorder, and others. Causes, diagnostic criteria, and treatments are provided for several disorders.
SEXUALITY AND SEXUAL HEALTH ASSESSMENT
The document discusses several topics related to human sexuality including:
1. It defines key terms like sex, gender, sexual orientation, and sexual health.
2. It outlines Freud's psychosexual stages of development from infancy through adulthood.
3. It describes factors that influence sexuality like culture, religion, health status, and medications.
4. It explains the human sexual response cycle and common sexual dysfunctions in men and women.

Addiction is characterized as a chronic disease involving the brain's reward system and impaired ability to control behaviors. Anyone can become addicted depending on risk factors like stress, family history, self-esteem, exposure to drugs, and mental illness. The spectrum of substance use ranges from abstinence to severe addiction. Drugs affect the brain stem, limbic system, and cortex to produce effects like depression, aggression, and impaired thinking. Teenage brains are still developing and vulnerable to long-term effects of drugs on memory, health, and life outcomes like poor academic or job performance and relationship issues. Tobacco and alcohol are the most commonly abused substances among youth and pose serious health risks. Avoiding drugs and smoking is important

1) Human sexuality involves the physical, psychological, and social aspects of sexual behavior. It is influenced by biological factors like anatomy and hormones, as well as environmental factors like culture, relationships, and life experiences.
2) Sexual behavior serves both reproductive and non-reproductive purposes. It provides health benefits like stress relief, immune system boosting, and cardiovascular benefits.
3) Normal sexual response involves four phases: desire, excitement, orgasm, and resolution. It is mediated by the central nervous system and hormones. Foreplay involves physical and psychological stimulation to increase arousal.
Sexual disorders
The document discusses normal human sexuality and sexual disorders. It defines normal sexuality and outlines the four phases of the physiological sexual response cycle. It then defines and categorizes various sexual dysfunctions including disorders of desire, arousal, orgasm and sexual pain. For each dysfunction, it discusses contributing factors, risk factors, differential diagnosis, comorbidities and treatment approaches including somatic, psychosocial and combined therapies.
Understanding Adverse Childhood Experiences
The document summarizes research on Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), which are potentially traumatic events that occur in childhood (0-17 years) such as abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction. The original ACE Study found that ACEs are common, often occur in clusters, and have strong links to health risks and diseases in adulthood. Individuals with 4 or more ACEs are at greatly increased risk for cancer, heart disease, depression, suicide attempts, drug use, and other negative outcomes. While childhood trauma can disrupt brain development and impact health and behavior, building supportive relationships and teaching coping skills can help mitigate negative impacts and break intergenerational cycles of trauma.

Deep Software Variability and Frictionless Reproducibility
Deep Software Variability and Frictionless ReproducibilityUniversity of Rennes, INSA Rennes, Inria/IRISA, CNRS
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically young
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.
