Biography:
The Ascension technique is about moving the alertness from one reality to another and the awareness of possible multiple realities existing simultaneously. Everything we are experiencing of a physical nature is ascension related. “It’s important to trust in this process and our soul’s ability to rebalance the body.”
The body reciprocate to our alertness, so the more we provoke our soul into our body, and the more we confess the joy that is our natural birthright, the body benefits. It may seem like a conflict, because the more we love ourselves and allow the Christ light into our lives, at least initially, the more things seem to break down. Again, it’s a necessary process and nothing we have done wrong. Some of you may feel terrific throughout this process, others may feel downright exhausted and even very ill.
The potent cosmic energies continue to bombard Earth and all of humanity is feeling it! All of humanity is feeling this quickening, this disorientation, although many have no idea what is going on and are concerned for their well-being. These are not necessarily signs of physical illness. They are what are known as "ascension symptoms". When we are unaware, unawakened and completely out of tune with this energy, we may short circuit, act out and even "snap" under the intensity of the energy. Just look at the world around you. The ancients and indigenous peoples of the Earth all understood and even prophesied this potential for humanity: the Mayans, the Aborigines, the Hopi, and many, many others. It seems they understood these large galactic cycles and knew that Earth would be traversing through this energy at just this time.So keep the faith Soul Tribe!

Session Introduction
Alain Iltis
CEO, Imaging Damavan
Title: Temporal Imaging CeBr3 Compton Camera: A New Concept for gamma ray astronomy?
Biography:
Alain Iltis has been In-Charge of developing Lanthanum Halides (LaBr3: Ce) scintillators and radiation detectors for St Gobain crystal. He has done the first LaBr3 PET modules for Joel Karp (U Penn). His expertise is in crystal growth and scintillation based radiation detectors. He had proposed the concept of temporal imaging and Founded Damavan imaging to exploit. He is currently Damavan’s President. He has filed more than 25 patents
Abstract:
Our objective is to promote a Compton camera for the energy range (200 keV- 2 meV) that uses fast scintillating crystals and a new concept for locating scintillation event accurately in thick plates: temporal imaging. We believe this concept could allow cost effective and still efficient imaging systems to be built. Temporal imaging uses monolithic plates of fast scintillators and measures photons time of arrival distribution in order to locate each gamma ray with a high precision in space (X, Y, Z), time (T) and energy (E). This provides a native estimation of the depth of interaction (Z) of every detected gamma ray. This also allows a time correction for the propagation time of scintillation photons inside the crystal, therefore resulting in excellent time resolution. The high temporal resolution of the system makes it possible to veto quite efficiently background by using narrow time coincidence window (<300 ps). It is also possible to reconstruct the direction of propagation of the photons inside the detector using timing constraints. A hand held demonstrator featuring one Compton head with two CeBr3 crystals 32x32x5 mm then 32x32x20 mm both readout by Phillips DPC Si-PM has been built. We present here preliminary images of a 22Na source obtained with the 511 keV line. The sensitivity of our system is better than 1 nSv/h in a 60 seconds acquisition with a 22Na source.

Abstract:
Radio observations of nearby galaxies can give stringent constraints for annihilating dark matter. If dark matter particles can annihilate, the high-energy electrons and positrons produced would emit strong synchrotron radiation (in radio waves) due to the strong magnetic field in galaxies. By using the observed radio fluxes emitted from nearby galaxies, we can constrain the annihilation cross sections and dark matter mass for different annihilation channels. In this talk, we report some good target objects for constraining annihilating dark matter and present the latest radio constraints based on the recent radio data
Biography:
Jérôme Pétri is an Expert in Theory and Modeling of Neutron Star Electrodynamics and Relativistic Radiation Mechanisms in strong magnetic fields. He has tackled several problems related to relativistic plasma dynamics with special emphasizes to magneto hydrodynamics and kinetic neutral/non-neutral plasma configurations arising around compact stellar objects, investigating their stability properties. He has also developed himself several algorithm to solve nonstandard relativistic astrophysics plasma problems, like linear dispersion relations for the two-stream and tearing instabilities, evolution of the diocotron and magnetron instabilities in linear and non-linear stages, pulsar magnetosphere including strong gravity and strong electromagnetic field effects. He had computed polarized synchrotron and inverse Compton emission emanating from the striped pulsar wind or from an off-centered magnetic dipole. Recently he computed neutron star magnetospheres in general relativity including quantum electrodynamics corrections and radiation from general-relativistic rotating magnetic multipoles.
Abstract:
Most current pulsar emission models assume photon production and emission within the magnetosphere although recently some attempts were made to explain pulsed emission emanating from the striped wind. Low frequency radiation is preferentially produced in the vicinity of the polar caps whereas the high-energy tail is shifted to regions closer but still inside the light-cylinder (that is within the magnetosphere). We conducted a systematic study of the merit of several popular radiation sites like the polar cap, the outer gap and the slot gap. We computed sky maps emanating from each emission site according to a prescribed distribution function for the emitting particles made of an electron/positron mixture. Calculations are performed using a three dimensional integration of the plasma emissivity in the vacuum electromagnetic field of a rotating centered general relativistic dipole. We compare Newtonian electromagnetic fields to their general relativistic counterpart. In the latter case, light bending is also taken into account. As a typical example, light-curves and sky maps are plotted for several power-law indices of the particle distribution function. The detailed pulse profiles strongly depending on the underlying assumption about the fluid motion subject to strong electromagnetic fields. From this electromagnetic topology we deduced the photon propagation direction directly or indirectly from aberration effects. We also discuss the implication of a net stellar electric charge on to the sky maps. Taking into account the electric field in the photon propagation direction strongly affects the light-curves originating close to the light-cylinder where the electric field strength becomes comparable to the magnetic field strength. We plan to include plasma screening in the force free limit as well as some quantum electrodynamics effects and an off-centered dipole.

Abstract:
The binary star Tau Ophiuchi is a difficult system to study. Although 633 observations were made between 1835 and 2014, they do not cover the full period of the orbit, which I calculate as 230.21 years, nor include the time of periastron passage, 1834.55 by my calculations. The difficulty arises from trying to obtain an orbit that statistically satisfies the observations and also the dynamics of binary star motion. The orbit published in the Washington double star catalog fails to satisfy the dynamics because the variation of mean anomaly with time, which should be linear, shows, decided nonlinearity. The best fit orbit I calculate satisfies statistics, with satisfactory randomness of the residuals, but fails dynamically because the orbit is hyperbolic, eccentricity of 1.05, impossibility. By use of semi definite programming to solve for both the orbital elements and the constant of areal velocity I finds an orbit that, although not entirely satisfactory statistically as measured by a statistical test for randomness of the residuals, 259 runs out of an expected 317, results in a mean anomaly that varies linearly with time and thus satisfies the dynamics. The sum of the masses of the two components, 6.07 solar masses, also becomes consistent with the primary, according to observational astronomers, being a giant star, although one cannot calculate the individual masses. The orbit is a high eccentricity ellipse, eccentricity 0.773, with perihelion 211.41, node 60.10 and inclination 54.64, all in degrees. This binary shows the importance of both statistics and dynamics for successful orbit computation.
