    Plenary Talks XXIst Century Perspectives on the Micro & Macro Worlds Jamal Mimouni1 1 Laboratoire de Physique Mathématique et Subatomique, Constantine-1 University e-mail: [email protected] We present a broad perspective on our (Early) XXIth century understanding of both the macro and micro worlds, and whether the dream embodied in the symbolism of Glashow’s snake has been implemented to some degree or recessed away. Do we have a unified vision of the world at those extreme scales? What about the status of that «21 st century» theory «that fell accidentally into the 20th century.” to quote E.Witten, and which is the «ideological» cement of very powerful aspiring-to-be paradigms like Cosmic Inflation, Multiverses, black holes… as well as the inspiration of most pre-Big Bang theories. There is no question that the failure of physics to solve those big puzzles left over from XXth century physics is really stemming from the limitations of experimental particle physics as it stumbles on the «not high enough» energy limit of present day colliders which has put every beyond the Standard Model theory basically on hold. The hints we get from experiments are too feeble and we can’t probe a high enough mass region where are possibly lurking other non-standard gauge bosons and Higgs, not talking about the SUSY zoo, ED particles and other exotic brands. Thus the great hope pinned on the UHE Cosmic Rays for their capability to cross the many orders of magnitude energy gap and reach for the physics of cosmic accelerators and whatever they might be spitting out of new exotic massive particles.

I am ensconced in the regional archives, searching for records relating to colonial-era disease control in Algeria’s communes mixtes (mixed communes). In place from 1858 to 1956, these colonial administrative units covered immense swathes of rural territory, encompassing centres de colonisation inhabited by a “mixed” population and outlying Muslim villages and settlements—the douars—under the sole charge of a centrally appointed administrator.1 In one archival box relating to the arrondissement of Bougie (Bejaïa), I find an improvised booklet constructed from quadrille paper threaded together with string. Sloping cursive lettering on the title page proclaims this to be a vaccination logbook: “Year 1936. Protection of Public Health (decree of 27 May 1907). Service of vaccination and revaccination. Mr AMRANE Mohand, vaccinator.” I immediately recognise Mohand ould Ramdan Amrane as one of the auxiliaires médicaux (medical auxiliaries), also known as adjoints techniques de la Santé publique, whose careers I have been tracking through personnel files and correspondence in the Algerian National Archives.

  • Seismic Risk Assessment of Constantine City (Algeria)
    Seismic risk assessment of Constantine City (Algeria) M. Boukri, M.N. Farsi, M. Belazougui, O. Amellal, N. Guessoum National Centre of Earthquake Engineering, CGS, Algiers, Algeria A. Mebarki Université Paris-Est, LaboratoireModélisation et Simulation Multi Echelle, MSME, UMR 8208 CNRS, 5 Bd Descartes, 77454 Marne-La-Vallée, France B. Mezazigh Civil Engineering Dept, University of Boumerdes, Algeria SUMMARY: Located at the North-East of Algeria, Constantine has an important administrative, economic, scientific and cultural position and knew a significant urban evolution during the different periods of its history. This city is located in active seismicity area of Algeria and has been stricken in the past by several moderate to strong earthquakes where the most recent took place on October 27th, 1985 with a magnitude Ms = 6.0. Because of its dense housing and high concentration of population (2374 hab/km²), Constantine presents a very high seismic risk which requires an assessment in order to take preventive measures to reduce losses in case of major event. In this context an earthquake scenario was performed using the HAZUS methodology adapted to the Algerian context and using a wide inventory of buildings built. The main results obtained from this scenario are presented in this paper. Keywords: Constantine, Seismic risk, Earthquake scenario 1. INTRODUCTION Recent earthquakes (Chlef 1980, Constantine 1985, Oued Djer 1988, Tipaza 1989 Mascara 1994, Ain Benian 1996 and more recently still Boumerdès 2003) (Yelles et al., 2003) show that there is an important seismic activity in Algeria. This activity affects essentially the Northern part of the country where the big cities are located for which the seismic risk is growing with the economic development and population growth.

  • ALGERIA Algeria Is a Multiparty Republic of Approximately 36 Million
    ALGERIA Algeria is a multiparty republic of approximately 36 million citizens whose head of state and government (president) is elected by popular vote for a five-year term. The president has the constitutional authority to appoint and dismiss cabinet members and the prime minister. A 2008 constitutional amendment eliminated presidential term limits, and in April 2009 President Abdelaziz Bouteflika won reelection to his third term in office. Some opposition parties boycotted the election, arguing that restrictions on freedom of association skewed the election outcome in favor of the incumbent. While the state of emergency law implemented in 1992 remained in effect during the year, the government concentrated its enforcement on the provisions restricting assembly and association. Security forces reported to civilian authorities. Principal human rights problems included restrictions on freedom of assembly and association, which significantly impaired political party activities and limited citizens' ability to change the government peacefully through elections. There were reports of arbitrary killings. Failures to account for persons who disappeared in the 1990s and to address the demands of victims' families remained problematic. There were reports of official impunity, overuse of pretrial detention, poor prison conditions, abuse of prisoners, and lack of judicial independence. Additionally, widespread corruption accompanied reports of limited government transparency. Authorities used security grounds to constrain freedom of expression and movement. Women faced violence and discrimination, and the government maintained restrictions on workers' rights. Terrorist groups committed a significant number of attacks against government officials, members of security forces, and, to a lesser extent, civilians.

Abstract The construction of dams in rivers can offer many advantages, however the consequences resulting from their failure could result in major damage, including loss of life and property destruction. To mitigate the threats of dam break it is essential to appreciate the characteristics of the potential flood in realistic manner.
