Special and preventive exercises for hamstring muscles in the training process of experienced football players

Background and Study Aim. In-depth analysis of electrical activity of certain muscles in athletes contributes to improvement in the technique of physical actions. Hamstring muscles are an important factor for making physical actions by experienced football players. The purpose of the study consisted in substantiation for factors of optimization of physical capacity to work in experienced football players. Materials and methods. The study involved 20 experienced football players (n=20, aged 18-33, the period of going in for football > 10 years). We used equipment of M-TEST computer electromyography device manufactured by research and development enterprise DX-Systems (Kharkiv, Ukraine). The maximum bioelectrical activity (MBA) of m. biceps femoris, m. semitendinosus and m. semimembranosus, which are hamstring muscles (HM), depending upon the angle of applied effort. The study was conducted with positions of the lower leg at angles of 180°, 165°, 145° and 125°. We used two-way analysis of variance and regression analysis. The fact that the distribution was normal was checked by Shapiro-Wilk W test. Results. Conditions for manifestation of the maximally effective realization of contractile abilities of HM were determined. Positions of the body and lower extremities for the largest overlaying of myofilaments in sarcomeres of HM were determined. Conditions of using external movement-disorganizing influence for HM were revealed. Models for special activity of experienced football players were systematized. Conclusions. HM will manifest their MBA in case of the coaxial position of the trunk and lower extremities. The angle of the lower leg position, equal to 180°, is the optimum one for the maximum overlaying of sarcomeres in the above muscles. Exercises with a component, which destabilizes the body position, are the most effective ones for realizing contractile abilities of HM.
Cold Collision Frequency Shift of an Optical Spectrum of a Trapped Gas

We develop an exact sum rule that relates the spectral shift of a trapped gas undergoing cold collisions to measurable quantities of the system. The method demonstrates the dependence of the cold collision frequency shift on the quantum degeneracy of the gas and facilitates extracting scattering lengths from the data. We apply the method to analyzing spectral data for magnetically trapped hydrogen atoms and determine the value of the 1 S − 2 S scattering length.
Implications for Post-processing Nucleosynthesis of Core-collapse Supernova Models with Lagrangian Particles

We investigate core-collapse supernova (CCSN) nucleosynthesis with self-consistent, axisymmetric (2D) simulations performed using the neutrino hydrodynamics code Chimera. Computational costs have traditionally constrained the evolution of the nuclear composition within multidimensional CCSN models to, at best, a 14-species α-network capable of tracking only reactions from 4He to 60Zn. Such a simplified network limits the ability to accurately evolve detailed composition and neutronization or calculate the nuclear energy generation rate. Lagrangian tracer particles are commonly used to extend the nuclear network evolution by incorporating more realistic networks into post-processing nucleosynthesis calculations. However, limitations such as poor spatial resolution of the tracer particles; inconsistent thermodynamic evolution, including misestimation of expansion timescales; and uncertain determination of the multidimensional mass cut at the end of the simulation impose uncertainties inherent to this approach. We present a detailed analysis of the impact of such uncertainties for four self-consistent axisymmetric CCSN models initiated from solar-metallicity, nonrotating progenitors of 12, 15, 20, and 25 and evolved with the smaller α-network to more than 1 s after the launch of an explosion.
Pulsar Electrodynamics

First 1 emphasize the magnetospheric loop current system induced by the wind activity. Next, I address the formation of the field-aligned electric field. An interesting aspect is the reaction of the inner magnetosphere to an induced current. In the traditional outer gap, the current running through the gap is all carried by the particles created in the gap. However, if external current-carrying particles are added, the gap moves inward or outward; it can even appear near the star. It is suggested that the gaps appear at various altitudes, depending on the current distribution on field lines, the field line geometry, and the source of the current-carrying particles. For definiteness of sign of charge and current direction, fi • /z > 0 is assumed throughout.
The effect of hydro-alcoholic extracts of Nigella sativa, Carum carvi, Taraxacum officinale, and royal jelly on the survival of HDF cell line under H2O2-induced oxidative stress compared to metformin

Background and aims: Highly active oxygen causes DNA or protein damage. This study aimed to determine the effect of the extract of three medicinal plants, royal jelly, and metformin on the survival of human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cells under oxidative stress induced by H2 O2 . Methods: Hydroalcoholic extracts were prepared from Nigella sativa, Carum carvi seeds, and Taraxacum officinale flower. The growth curve of HDF cells was plotted in Dulbecco’s modified eagle medium (DMEM). The cells were exposed to H2 O2 stress and treated with different concentrations of the extracts, royal jelly, and metformin. The cells viability was then calorimetrically analyzed during different times in 69-well plates. Results: The exponential growth phase of HDF cells was observed during 24–72-hour growth. High cell survivals were seen during 72 hours of exposure to 25 mg/mL royal jelly (99.13±3.22%), 15 mg/mL C. carvi extracts and N. sativa (97.87±3.25% and 96.22±5.47%, respectively), 10 mg/mL royal jelly (96.14±4.72%), 16 mg/mL metformin (91.23±5.34%), and 8 mg/mL T. officinale (86.31±7.44%), respectively. These results were significantly higher than the results of 48 and 24 hours of exposure to 15 mg/mL N. sativa (P=0.013), 15 mg/mL C. carvi (P=0.019), and 16 mg/mL metformin (P=0.027). Moreover, royal jelly (25 mg/mL) significantly indicated greater effect on the cell survival compared with the highest concentrations of the extracts and metformin at different exposure times (P=0.016-0.032). Conclusion: Royal jelly, N. sativa, and T. officinale extracts revealed remarkable effects on the stressed HDF cells; therefore, they can be proposed for treatment of wounds and burns after clinical analysis.
Genotypic and Environmental Influence on Fresh Rhizome Yield of Turmeric (Curcuma longa L.)

Turmeric (Curcuma longa) and related Curcuma species have been used traditionally in India, China, Hawaii, and other cultures for millennia. Today they are used around the world for spice, medicine, dye, and religious purposes. Recent biomedical studies have corroborated the long-known traditional medicinal values of turmeric and its constituent curcuminoid compounds, which have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticarcinogenic properties. As part of statewide research and extension efforts to support an expanding turmeric industry, we examined yield of 14 accessions across different climatic zones in Hawaii to observe and describe Genotype × Environmental influences. Fresh turmeric yield differed significantly among genotypes. The overall yields observed in this work ranged 11.3–57.22 t∙ha−1 and generally agree with those in the literature. Data from the different sites suggest that fertility and water management are able to mitigate moderate stress imposed by climate change within a certain range, but suboptimal temperatures associated with high elevation in the tropics (>1000 m) are an important driver of lower yields. This suggests that high yielding turmeric varieties may possess wide adaptability and may perform well across diverse environments. However, site-specific evaluations will still be necessary, particularly in environments outside turmeric’s environmental optima and in the presence of high pest pressure.
A new solar neutrino channel for grand-unification monopole searches

We identify a previously untapped discovery channel for grand-unification monopoles, arising from their ability to catalyse the direct decay of protons into monoenergetic 459 MeV antineutrinos within the Sun. Previous analyses omit this possibility as it necessarily involves an electroweak suppression factor, and instead search for the unsuppressed 20–50 MeV neutrinos produced via two-stage proton decays. By accounting for the relative difference in interaction cross section and experimental background at typical neutrino detection experiments, we demonstrate that this new channel in fact possesses greater discovery potential. As a case in point, using 5326 live days of Super-Kamiokande exposure we find that 2 σ (3 σ) deviations in the 20–50 MeV channel are amplified to 3 σ (4.6 σ) deviations in the 459 MeV case. Exploiting correlations between these two channels may also offer even greater statistical power.
Period–luminosity relations of fast-rotating B-type stars in the young open cluster NGC 3766

We study the pulsational properties of rapidly rotating main-sequence B-type stars using linear non-adiabatic analysis of non-radial low-frequency modes taking into account the effect of rotation. We compare the properties of prograde sectoral $g$ and retrograde $r$ modes excited by the $\kappa$ mechanism at the Fe opacity peak with the newly discovered period-luminosity relation that is obeyed by a group of fast-rotating B-type stars in the young open cluster NGC 3766. The observed relation consists of two sequences in the period versus magnitude diagram, at periods shorter than 0.5 days. We find that this property is consistent with similar period-luminosity relations predicted for excited sectoral prograde $g$-modes of azimuthal orders $m=-1$ and $m=-2$ in fast-rotating stars along an isochrone. We further show that some of the rapidly rotating stars that have photometric variability with periods longer than a day may be caused by $r$-mode pulsation predicted to be excited in these stars. One fast-rotating star, in particular, shows both short and long periods that can be explained by the simultaneous excitation of $g$- and $r$-mode pulsations in models of fast-rotating stars.
Gaussian optical Ising machines

It has recently been shown that optical parametric oscillator (OPO) Ising machines, consisting of coupled optical pulses circulating in a cavity with parametric gain, can be used to probabilistically find low-energy states of Ising spin systems. In this work, we study optical Ising machines that operate under simplified Gaussian dynamics. We show that these dynamics are sufficient for reaching probabilities of success comparable to previous work. Based on this result, we propose modified optical Ising machines with simpler designs that do not use parametric gain yet achieve similar performance, thus suggesting a route to building much larger systems.
A, Adolescent The Relations between Parenting Styles with Adolescent Reproductive Health Knowledge in Junior High School “X” in Gianyar Regency

Adolescence are changes both physically and psychologically. The occurrence of physical changes characterized by changes in reproductive functions and systems causes sexual motivation that makes adolescents vulnerable to diseases and reproductive health problems. Adolescents are expected to have good reproductive health knowledge to avoid various reproductive health problems. Knowledge of reproductive health is influenced by several factors, such as parenting styles. Parents have a big role in providing supervision and nurturing of teenagers in a family environment. This study aims to determine the relations between parenting styles and adolescent reproductive health knowledge. This research was conducted on April - May 2019. This research was cross sectional approach. Respondents numbered are 198 adolescents, obtained through proportional random sampling techniques. Parenting styles and health reproduction knowledge were measured using a questionnaire which has been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis using chi-square test. The results showed there is a relationship between parenting styles and adolescent reproductive health knowledge (p <0.05). The parenting styles are necessary in providing about reproductive health knowledge to provide information by providing correct information from reliable sources.
Mental Health and Community Resilience among Vulnerable Populations Affected by Natural Hazards: Protocol for Scoping Reviews

Introduction: Exposure to natural hazards such as fire, drought, floods, and earthquakes can have negative impacts on physical and mental health and wellbeing. The social and structural factors contributing to individual and community vulnerability also influence responses to disaster and the resulting consequences on health and wellbeing. Experiencing disasters like bushfires amplifies the impacts of inequality, magnifying existing disparities and contributing to additional psychological burdens of grief, trauma and adaptive challenge. There is a need to understand how vulnerability can influence responses to disaster, and to identify factors that develop and foster resilience in the context of increasing disasters and vulnerability. Materials and Methods: This protocol will describe the methodology of two scoping reviews: the first will describe the mental health outcomes of vulnerable populations after droughts and bushfires; the second will identify and describe strategies that promote community resilience in vulnerable populations in the context of a disaster. A thorough search will be conducted in relevant databases. Studies will be limited to English language. The reviews will be reported using the 22-item checklist for the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses. Methodological quality of the included papers will be assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute’s critical appraisal tools. Results & Conclusions: The two scoping reviews described in this protocol will have broad relevance in the context of increasing and intensifying disasters, and will especially consider the compounded impact of disaster on vulnerable communities. Findings will contribute directly to the design and implementation of solutions to improve post-disaster health and wellbeing and community resilience.
Unveiling the inner morphology and gas kinematics of NGC 5135 with ALMA

The local Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC5135, thanks to its almost face-on appearance, a bulge overdensity of stars, the presence of a large-scale bar, an AGN and a Supernova Remnant, is an excellent target to investigate the dynamics of inflows, outflows, star formation and AGN feedback. Here we present a reconstruction of the gas morphology and kinematics in the inner regions of this galaxy, based on the analysis of Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) archival data. To our purpose, we combine the available $\sim$100 pc resolution ALMA 1.3 and 0.45 mm observations of dust continuum emission, the spectroscopic maps of two transitions of the CO molecule (tracer of molecular mass in star forming and nuclear regions), and of the CS molecule (tracer of the dense star forming regions) with the outcome of the SED decomposition. By applying the $^{\rm 3D}$BAROLO software (3D-Based Analysis of Rotating Object via Line Observations), we have been able to fit the galaxy rotation curves reconstructing a 3D tilted-ring model of the disk. Most of the observed emitting features are described by our kinematic model. We also attempt an interpretation for the emission in few regions that the axisymmetric model fails to reproduce. The most relevant of these is a region at the northern edge of the inner bar, where multiple velocity components overlap, as a possible consequence of the expansion of a super-bubble.
Extraction of Surfaces Using Section Curves for Engineering Plants

For simulating renovation of industrial facilities, 3D models are very useful. However, it is time-consuming to create 3D models. The terrestrial laser scanner is effective for easily capturing 3D data of large-scale facilities. So far, many researchers have proposed methods for reconstructing pipe structures in industrial plants using point-clouds. In those methods, planes and cylinders are extracted from point-clouds, but they are not enough for creating various types of equipment. Especially, in manufacturing plants for liquids and gases, rotating surfaces and generalized cylinders are typically used as well as planes and cylinders. In this paper, this paper proposes methods for extracting rotating surfaces and generalized cylinders from noisy and incomplete point-clouds. Since the section shapes of rotating surfaces and generalized cylinders are approximately ellipses, this method detects elliptic section shapes from point-clouds. Then rotating surfaces and generalized cylinders are reconstructed by extracting the center curves and section circles. Then the authors combine this method with general-purpose voxel-based shape reconstruction methods. Since this method is robust to missing points caused by occlusion, the quality of shape reconstruction can be improved even if points are partly missing due to occlusion.

Tunneling of two bosonic atoms from a one-dimensional anharmonic trap

We investigate the quantum dynamics of two interacting bosonic atoms confined in a one-dimensional anharmonic trap. The tunneling rate, an experimentally measurable parameter of the system, was calculated as a function of the effective coupling interatomic constant $g$ from the ground (n=N=0) and first excited atomic states in the trap with respect to relative (n=2,N=0) and center-of-mass (n=0,N=2) atomic motion. This allows to investigate the initial population and pair correlation, as well as the effective coupling constant $g$, of the system by comparing the calculated tunneling rate with the experimental one. We have observed that the only possible tunneling scenario is a sequential particle tunneling in the cases we considered. We have also analyzed a rearrangement $(0,2)\rightleftarrows(2,0)$ of the spectrum in the limit $g\rightarrow \pm 0$ of noninteracting atoms.
Stochastic simulation of a finite-temperature one-dimensional Bose gas: From the Bogoliubov to the Tonks-Girardeau regime

We present an ab initio stochastic method for calculating thermal properties of a trapped, one-dimensional Bose gas covering the whole range from weak to strong interactions. Discretization of the problem results in a Bose-Hubbard-type Hamiltonian, whose imaginary time evolution is made computationally accessible by stochastic factorization of the kinetic energy. To achieve convergence for low enough temperatures such that quantum fluctuations are essential, the stochastic factorization is generalized to blocks, and ideas from density-matrix renormalization are employed. We compare our numerical results for density and first-order correlations with analytic predictions.
Subcritical turbulence in the Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak

The transport of heat out of tokamak plasmas by turbulence is the dominant mechanism limiting the performance of fusion reactors. Turbulence can be driven by the ion temperature gradient (ITG) and suppressed by toroidal equilibrium scale sheared flows. Numerical simulations attempting to understand, and ultimately reduce, turbulence are crucial for guiding the design and optimisation of future reactors. In this thesis, we investigate ion-scale turbulence by means of local gyrokinetic simulations in the outer core of the Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak (MAST). We perform a parameter scan in the values of the ITG and the flow shear. We show that nonlinear simulations reproduce the experimental ion heat flux and that the experimentally measured values of the ITG and the flow shear lie close to the turbulence threshold. We demonstrate that the system is subcritical in the presence of flow shear, i.e., the system is formally stable to small perturbations, but transitions to a turbulent state given a large enough initial perturbation. We propose a scenario for the transition to subcritical turbulence previously unreported in tokamak plasmas: close to the threshold, the plasma is dominated by a low number of coherent long-lived structures; as the system is taken away from the threshold into the more unstable regime, the number of these structures increases until they fill the domain and a more conventional turbulence emerges. We make quantitative comparisons of correlation properties between our simulations and experimental measurements of ion-scale density fluctuations from the MAST BES diagnostic. We apply a synthetic diagnostic to our simulation data and find reasonable agreement of the correlation properties of the simulated and experimental turbulence, most notably of the correlation time, for which significant discrepancies were found in previous numerical studies of MAST turbulence. We show that the properties of turbulence are essentially functions of the distance to threshold, as quantified by the ion heat flux. We find that turbulence close to the threshold is strongly affected by flow shear, whereas far from threshold, the turbulence resembles a conventional ITG-driven, zonal-flow damped regime.
Theory of ferromagnetic (III, Mn) V semiconductors

The body of research on (III,Mn)V diluted magnetic semiconductors initiated during the 1990's has concentrated on three major fronts: i) the microscopic origins and fundamental physics of the ferromagnetism that occurs in these systems, ii) the materials science of growth and defects and iii) the development of spintronic devices with new functionalities. This article reviews the current status of the field, concentrating on the first two, more mature research directions. From the fundamental point of view, (Ga,Mn)As and several other (III,Mn)V DMSs are now regarded as textbook examples of a rare class of robust ferromagnets with dilute magnetic moments coupled by delocalized charge carriers. Both local moments and itinerant holes are provided by Mn, which makes the systems particularly favorable for realizing this unusual ordered state. Advances in growth and post-growth treatment techniques have played a central role in the field, often pushing the limits of dilute Mn moment densities and the uniformity and purity of materials far beyond those allowed by equilibrium thermodynamics. In (III,Mn)V compounds, material quality and magnetic properties are intimately connected. In the review we focus on the theoretical understanding of the origins of ferromagnetism and basic structural, magnetic, magneto-transport, and magneto-optical characteristics of simple (III,Mn)V epilayers, with the main emphasis on (Ga,Mn)As. The conclusions we arrive at are based on an extensive literature covering results of complementary ab initio and effective Hamiltonian computational techniques, and on comparisons between theory and experiment.
