Chandra and Magellan/FIRE follow-up observations of PSO167–13: An X-ray weak QSO at z = 6.515

This article presents the results of follow-up observations of the z = 6.515 radio-quiet QSO PSO167–13, which is interacting with a close companion galaxy with the goal to confirm the existence of the X-ray source and to investigate the rest-frame UV properties of the QSO. The authors observed the PSO167–13 system with Chandra/ACIS-S (177 ks) and obtained new spectroscopic observations (7.2 h) with Magellan/FIRE.

On social sensitivity to either zealot or independent minorities

This article uses the self-organized temporal criticality (SOTC) model to identify the timing of crucial events as a new mechanism with which to generate criticality, thereby establishing a way for the internal dynamics of the decision making process to suppresss the sensitivity of social opinion to either zealot or independent minorities.
