The SAMI Galaxy Survey: mass-kinematics scaling relations
We use data from the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral-field spectroscopy
(SAMI) Galaxy Survey to study the dynamical scaling relation between galaxy
stellar mass and the general kinematic parameter that combines rotation velocity and velocity dispersion
. We show that the relation: (1)~is linear above
limits set by properties of the samples and observations; (2)~has slightly
different slope when derived from stellar or gas kinematic measurements;
(3)~applies to both early-type and late-type galaxies and has smaller scatter
than either the Tully-Fisher relation () for late
types or the Faber-Jackson relation () for early types;
and (4)~has scatter that is only weakly sensitive to the value of , with
minimum scatter for in the range 0.4 and 0.7. We compare to the
aperture second moment (the `aperture velocity dispersion') measured from the
integrated spectrum within a 3-arcsecond radius aperture
(). We find that while and
are in general tightly correlated, the relation has less scatter than the relation.Comment: 14 pages, 8 figures, Accepted 2019 May 22. Received 2019 May 18; in

A Health Systems Approach to Integrated Community Case Management of Childhood Illness: Methods and Tools
Integrated community case management (iCCM) of childhood illness is an increasingly popular strategy to expand life-saving health services to underserved communities. However, community health approaches vary widely across countries and do not always distribute resources evenly across local health systems. We present a harmonized framework, developed through interagency consultation and review, which supports the design of CCM by using a systems approach. To verify that the framework produces results, we also suggest a list of complementary indicators, including nine global metrics, and a menu of 39 country-specific measures. When used by program managers and evaluators, we propose that the framework and indicators can facilitate the design, implementation, and evaluation of community case management
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: the link between angular momentum and optical morphology
We investigate the relationship between stellar and gas specific angular momentum j, stellar mass M-* and optical morphology for a sample of 488 galaxies extracted from the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral field Galaxy Survey. We find that j, measured within one effective radius, monotonically increases with M-* and that, for M-* > 10(9.5) M-aS (TM), the scatter in this relation strongly correlates with optical morphology (i.e. visual classification and S,rsic index). These findings confirm that massive galaxies of all types lie on a plane relating mass, angular momentum and stellar-light distribution, and suggest that the large-scale morphology of a galaxy is regulated by its mass and dynamical state. We show that the significant scatter in the M-*-j relation is accounted for by the fact that, at fixed stellar mass, the contribution of ordered motions to the dynamical support of galaxies varies by at least a factor of 3. Indeed, the stellar spin parameter (quantified via lambda(R)) correlates strongly with S,rsic and concentration indices. This correlation is particularly strong once slow rotators are removed from the sample, showing that late-type galaxies and early-type fast rotators form a continuous class of objects in terms of their kinematic properties
The SAMI Galaxy Survey: mass-kinematics scaling relations
We use data from the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral-field spectroscopy (SAMI) Galaxy Survey to study the dynamical scaling relation between galaxy stellar mass M∗ and the general kinematic parameter S_K = \sqrt{K V_rot^2 + σ ^2} that combines rotation velocity Vrot and velocity dispersion σ. We show that the log M∗ - log SK relation: (1) is linear above limits set by properties of the samples and observations; (2) has slightly different slope when derived from stellar or gas kinematic measurements; (3) applies to both early-type and late-type galaxies and has smaller scatter than either the Tully-Fisher relation (log M∗ - log Vrot) for late types or the Faber-Jackson relation (log M∗ - log σ) for early types; and (4) has scatter that is only weakly sensitive to the value of K, with minimum scatter for K in the range 0.4 and 0.7. We compare SK to the aperture second moment (the `aperture velocity dispersion') measured from the integrated spectrum within a 3-arcsecond radius aperture (σ _{3^' ' }}). We find that while SK and σ _{3^' ' }} are in general tightly correlated, the log M∗ - log SK relation has less scatter than the \log M_* - \log σ _{3^' ' }} relation.The SAMI Galaxy

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Data Release Two with absorption-line physics value-added products

Uvodna riječ
We present the second major release of data from the Sydney - Australian Astronomical Observatory Multi-Object Integral Field Spectrograph (SAMI) Galaxy Survey. Data Release Two includes data for 1559 galaxies, about 50 per cent of the full survey. Galaxies included have a redshift range 0.004 11], the velocity dispersion strongly increases towards the centre, whereas below log (M-*/M-circle dot) < 10 we find no evidence for a clear increase in the central velocity dispersion. This suggests a transition mass around log (M-*/M-circle dot) similar to 10 for galaxies with or without a dispersion-dominated bulge

Do malaria control interventions reach the poor? A view through the equity lens.
Malaria, more than any other disease of major public health importance in developing countries, disproportionately affects poor people, with 58% of malaria cases occurring in the poorest 20% of the world's population. If malaria control interventions are to achieve their desired impact, they must reach the poorest segments of the populations of developing countries. Unfortunately, a growing body of evidence from benefit-incidence analyses has demonstrated that many public health interventions that were designed to aid the poor are not reaching their intended target. For example, the poorest 20% of people in selected developing countries were as much as 2.5 times less likely to receive basic public health services as the least-poor 20%. In the field of malaria control, a small number of studies have begun to shed light on differences by wealth status of malaria burden and of access to treatment and prevention services. These early studies found no clear difference in fever incidence based on wealth status, but did show significant disparities in both the consequences of malaria and in the use of malaria prevention and treatment services. Further study is needed to elucidate the underlying factors that contribute to these disparities, and to examine possible inequities related to gender, social class, or other factors. To achieve impact and overcome such inequities, malaria control efforts must begin to incorporate approaches relevant to equity in program design, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation
