Online shopping has a lot of benefits. However, despite all these years and advancements in online shopping, online shopping still needs to be enhanced in a variety of ways in order to improve the current online shopping experience for the satisfaction of online customer. These days, online shopping is still inconvenience for product measurement for the product representations and body size chart, customer need to spend too much time on online reviews and product description. Therefore, the goal of this paper is to propose a mobile application that will visualize static 2D which focus on the kids’ sport equipment products in order to increase customer satisfaction and quicken the time process of availability for product information. Quick View mobile application assists by providing quick access for product information. Mobile Application Development Life Cycle (MADLC) methodology is being used to develop Quick View mobile application which is only conducted from the identification phase up until to the testing phase. Quick View mobile application offers to the user the three main features which is height and size, body position and load capacity. These features also have been included a visual representation of a 2D kids' body size with the product chosen. The benefit for the user is that they get to easily and quickly to view the product and fine which product fit their kids’ sizes with convenience. In accordance with the results of the SUS user testing, many users agreed that Quick View is convenient, user-friendly, not overly complicated, effectively integrated, and does not require technical assistance where 86.5 is the result score. Future recommendations include that this mobile application should provide 2D human body illustration for any kind of age and provide plenty of products and equipment for people to view without limitation of choices.
GGD 37: AN EXTREME PROTOSTELLAR OUTFLOW

We present the first Spitzer-IRS spectral maps of the Herbig–Haro flow GGD 37 detected in lines of [Ne iii], [O iv], [Ar iii], and [Ne v]. The detection of extended [O iv] (55 eV) and some extended emission in [Ne v] (97 eV) indicates a shock temperature in excess of 100,000 K, in agreement with X-ray observations, and a shock speed in excess of 200 km s−1. The presence of an extended photoionization or collisional ionization region indicates that GGD 37 is a highly unusual protostellar outflow.
Detectability of Tensor Perturbations Through CBR Anisotropy (final published version)

Detection of the tensor perturbations predicted in inflationary models is important for testing inflation as well as for reconstructing the inflationary potential. We show that because of cosmic variance the tensor contribution to the square of the CBR quadrupole anisotropy must be greater than about 20\% of the scalar contribution to ensure a statistically significant detection of tensor perturbations. This sensitivity could be achieved by full-sky measurements on angular scales of $3^{\circ}$ and $0.5^\circ$.
A New Approach based on Electromechanical Torque for Detection of Inter-Turn Fault in Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor

Abstract Fault detection is an important issue for permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs). In the initial stage, it is very crucial to detect stator winding inter-turn short-circuit failure, which is one of the most common types of faults. In this paper, a new approach based on electromechanical torque has been proposed to detect the stator inter-turn short circuit fault (ISCF) that occurs in surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs). New fault signatures based on the torque signal that can be used in stator winding ISCF detection are tried to be found in the torque frequency distribution. Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) was used to extract the torque frequency components associated with the stator ISCF. It was found that the amplitudes of the 2nd and 4th harmonic components of the torque signal are distinctive features that can be used for stator winding ISCF detection in PMSM. With the proposed components of the 2nd and 4th harmonic of torque, an inter-turn fault can be easily detected at the initial stage. Both experimental results and simulation results for healthy and three different faulty states (2%, 12.5%, and 25% ISCF) at different load levels and different speeds are presented in this paper.
A DECLINE IN THE NONTHERMAL X-RAY EMISSION FROM CASSIOPEIA A

We present new Chandra ACIS-S3 observations of Cassiopeia A which, when combined with earlier ACIS-S3 observations, show evidence for a steady ∼1.5%–2% yr−1 decline in the 4.2–6.0 keV X-ray emission between the years 2000 and 2010. The computed flux from exposure corrected images over the entire remnant showed a 17% decline over the entire remnant and a slightly larger (21%) decline from regions along the remnant's western limb. Spectral fits of the 4.2–6.0 keV emission across the entire remnant, forward shock filaments, and interior filaments indicate that the remnant's nonthermal spectral power-law index has steepened by about 10%, with interior filaments having steeper power-law indices. Since TeV electrons, which give rise to the observed X-ray synchrotron emission, are associated with the exponential cutoff portion of the electron distribution function, we have related our results to a change in the cutoff energy and conclude that the observed decline and steepening of the nonthermal X-ray emission is consistent with a deceleration of the remnant's ≃5000 km s−1 forward shock of ≈30–70 km s−1 yr−1.
Characterization of Ferroelectric Thin Film/SiO2/Si Structure by Photoreflectance

SrBi2Ta2O9(SBT)/SiO2/n-Si stacked structures have been characterized by photoreflectance spectroscopy (PRS). The spectrum near E1 critical point energy is enhanced by deposition of SBT film. Annealing effect of the spectral intensity corresponds to that of (115) peak in XRD pattern of SBT film. Moreover, the PRS intensity increases when SBT film is poled by negative voltage. These spectral changes depend on the Si surface potential increase induced by remanent polarizations in the SBT film. The Si surface potential increase is 0.05 eV for −3 V poling. Critical point energy was estimated by peak positions of the PRS and large tensile stress is increased by the poling. It has been found that the spectral intensity closely corresponds to the ferroelectricity of the SBT film.
Non-linear gyrokinetic theory of magnetoplasmas

A crucial issue in relativistic plasma, particularly relevant in the astrophysical context, is the description of highly magnetized plasmas based on a covariant formulation of gyrokinetic dynamics. An interesting case in question is that in which the background electric field (produced either by the same plasma of by other sources) results suitably small (or vanishing) with respect to the magnetic field, while at the same time short-wavelength EM perturbations can be present. The purpose of this work is to extend the relativistic gyrokinetic theory developed by Beklemishev et al. [1999-2005] to include, in particular, also the treatment of such a case. We intend to show that this requires the development of a perturbative expansion involving simultaneously both the particle 4-position vector and the corresponding 4-velocity vector. For this purpose a synchronous form of the relativistic Hamilton variational principle is adopted.
Low-Frequency Noise as a Source of Dephasing of a Qubit

With the growing efforts in isolating solid-state qubits from external decoherence sources, the material-inherent sources of noise start to play crucial role. One representative example is electron traps in the device material or substrate. Electrons can tunnel or hop between a charged and an empty trap, or between a trap and a gate electrode. A single trap typically produces telegraph noise and can hence be modeled as a bistable fluctuator. Since the distribution of hopping rates is exponentially broad, many traps produce flicker-noise with spectrum close to 1/f. Here we develop a theory of decoherence of a qubit in the environment consisting of two-state fluctuators, which experience transitions between their states induced by interaction with thermal bath. Due to interaction with the qubit the fluctuators produce 1/f-noise in the qubit’s eigenfrequency. We calculate the results of qubit manipulations-free induction and echo signals — in such environment. The main problem is that in many important cases the relevant random process is both non-Markovian and non-Gaussian. Consequently the results in general cannot be represented by pair correlation function of the qubit eigenfrequency fluctuations. Our calculations are based on analysis of the density matrix of the qubit using methods developed for stochastic differential equations. The proper generating functional is then averaged over different fluctuators using the so-called Holts-mark procedure. The analytical results are compared with simulations allowing checking accuracy of the averaging procedure and evaluating mesoscopic fluctuations. The results allow understanding some observed features of the echo decay in Josephson qubits.
Learning Effectiveness of Virtual Land Surveying Simulator for Blended Open Distance Learning Amid Covid-19 Pandemic

Many universities worldwide were forced to physically close campuses due to lockdown and resumed the in-person classes compliant with a stringent set of SOPs as Covid cases drop. This has profoundly disrupted the hands-on lab face-to-face learning process that is harder to be moved online. Virtual simulation lab could be the answer and its use in many courses has been extensively studied. However, it is relatively little studied when it comes to land surveying courses. The purpose of the study is to explore the learning effectiveness of virtual surveying field lab for blended open distance learning (ODL) students at Wawasan Open University (WOU) in the time of Covid-19. This study used a mixed-method that combines qualitative and quantitative approaches to get a fuller picture and deeper meaning of learning behavior. Respondents were selected using the purposive sampling method. Survey questionnaires were designed and distributed to students before and after lab simulation classes. Instructors were interviewed after the lab simulation class. Students’ learning results for the surveying course were compared with the past-year examination results at pre-Covid-19 times before the virtual simulator was introduced. Both qualitative and quantitative data set were collected and analyzed together using descriptive and inferential statistical methods in the SPSS platform. The findings revealed that the virtual simulator has enhanced students’ learning interest and efficiency for surveying courses in an ODL setting. Both students and instructors have responded positively towards the virtual simulator learning experiences. Students’ achievement in the final examination amid Covid-19 was better than pre-Covid-19 performance.
An Advanced Comprehensive Physiotherapy Management for Empyema Thoracis and Scoliosis: A Case Report

Tuberculous empyema is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection of the pleural cavity, resulting in purulent pleural fluid formation. Tuberculous empyema most commonly develops in patients with tuberculous pleuritis treated with artificial pneumothorax. However, it can also develop in patients with chronic tuberculous pleuritis, usually in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis treated with antituberculous chemotherapy. Scoliosis is a three-dimensional spine deformity caused by several factors, including genetic susceptibility, anterior and posterior spinal development imbalance, and connective tissue abnormalities (skeletal muscle and nerves). Although surgery is the most talked-about treatment option, there is high-quality evidence suggesting the use of conservative therapy in the management of scoliosis. A systematic rehabilitation plan with a variety of approaches was developed, and it was found to be a highly successful protocol for treating the patient’s empyema and scoliosis.
Non-Financial Reporting and Assurance: A New Opportunity for Auditors? Evidence from Portugal

Research on auditing professionals’ perceptions of non-financial reporting and its assurance is relatively scarce, and the majority of the existing studies pay little attention to the assurance aspect. Our study contributes to strengthening this type of research by investigating Portuguese audit professionals’ perceptions of non-financial reporting and its assurance. The purpose of the current paper is to identify the perceptions of Portuguese audit professionals about non-financial reporting, particularly the responsibility for its preparation, its mandatory or voluntary natures, and how to improve non-financial reporting and its assurance. We also analyze whether these perceptions are associated with sex and work experience. The perceptions of statutory auditors were surveyed by using a questionnaire. Results allow us to conclude that Portuguese statutory auditors agree that non-financial reporting assurance is an important practice, and that company management should be responsible for the preparation and publication of non-financial reports. They consider that assurance of these reports should be conducted by a statutory auditor and think that the Institute of Portuguese Statutory Auditors should have a more active role in this matter. Notwithstanding, very few of the respondents have experience with this type of assurance, which may explain their acknowledgment of the importance of additional training. Work experience and sex do not influence the perceptions of the auditors. Findings suggest the existence of a positive attitude towards non-financial reporting and its assurance associated with the acknowledgement of its underdevelopment in Portugal. As far as we are aware, our study is the first to focus exclusively on Portuguese auditing professionals’ perceptions concerning non-financial reporting and assurance.
Feynman Path Integrals Over Entangled States

The saddle points of a conventional Feynman path integral are not entangled, since they comprise a sequence of classical field configurations. We combine insights from field theory and tensor networks by constructing a Feynman path integral over a sequence of matrix product states. The paths that dominate this path integral include some degree of entanglement. This new feature allows several insights and applications: i. A Ginzburg-Landau description of deconfined phase transitions. ii. The emergence of new classical collective variables in states that are not adiabatically continuous with product states. iii. Features that are captured in product-state field theories by proliferation of instantons are encoded in perturbative fluctuations about entangled saddles. We develop a general formalism for such path integrals and a couple of simple examples to illustrate their utility.
Effect Ulomoides dermestoides extract to TNF-α expression and kidney histopathology in diabetic rat model

Type 1 diabetes mellitus is a degenerative disease that often occurs, that is caused by impaired insulin production and damage to the cell β pancreas. This disease is characterized by increased levels of glucose in the blood, which interferes with insulin production in the body. Rattus norvegicus was used as an animal model of diabetes mellitus with streptozotocin 20 mg/kg and five experimental groups with three therapeutic doses of 2.3 mg/kg, 4.6 mg/kg, and 9.2 mg/kg. The total flavonoid equivalent contained in Ulomoides dermetoides was 1.48 g/mL. Immunohistochemistry results showed therapeutic doses of 2.3 mg/kg and 4.6 mg/kg can reduce TNF-α expression in kidney tissue, but a dose of 9.2 mg/kg had no effect when compared to the positive control. Necrosis and protein deposits were seen in the renal tubules in the four treatment groups compared with the negative control. A dose of 2.3 mg/kg was the best treatment with high TNF-α expression and can repair kidney tissues.
Clustering in the 1.2-Jy IRAS Galaxy Redshift Survey – I. The redshift and real space correlation functions

We present analyses of the two-point correlation function derived from an all-sky redshift survey of 5313 galaxies extracted from the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) data base. The redshift space correlation function ξ(s) is well described by a power law, ξ(s)=(s/4.53 h −1 Mpc) −1.28 , on scales ≤20 h −1 Mpc; on larger scales ξ(s) drops below the extension of this power law. We examine the effect of redshift space distortions on the correlation function and compute the full two-dimensional correlation function ξ(r p , π). From this, we derive the real space correlation function, which is well described by ξ(r)=(r/3.76 h −1 Mpc) −1.66 on scales ≤20 h −1 Mpc
Verarbeitung komplexer XML-basierter Massendaten in BigData-Anwendungen

XML ist ein semi-strukturiertes Datenbeschreibungsformat, das aufgrund weiter Verbreitung und steigender Datenmengen auch als Eingabeformat für eine BigData-Verarbeitung relevant ist. Der vorliegende Beitrag befasst sich daher mit der Nutzung komplexer XML-basierter Datenstrukturen als Eingabeformat für BigData-Anwendungen. Werden umfangreiche komplexe XML-Datenstrukturen mit verschiedenen XML-Typen in einer zu verarbeitenden XML-Datei beispielsweise mit Apache Hadoop verarbeitet, kann das Einlesen der Daten die Laufzeit einer Anwendung dominieren. Unser Ansatz befasst sich mit der Optimierung der Eingabephasen, indem Zwischenergebnisse der Verarbeitung im Arbeitsspeicher abgelegt werden. Der Aufwand für die Verarbeitung reduziert sich damit zum Teil erheblich. Anhand einer Fallstudie aus der Musikbranche, in der standardisierte XML-basierte Formate wie das DDEX-Format genutzt werden, wird experimentell gezeigt, dass die Verarbeitung mit unserem Ansatz im Vergleich zur klassischen Abarbeitung von Dateiinhalten deutlich effizienter ist.

Osmotic Gradient Is a Factor That Influences the Gill Microbiota Communities in Oryzias melastigma

Simple Summary This study was applied to the laboratory medaka to understand how the osmotic gradient could influence the composition of the gill microbiota communities. The data suggested that the shift of the gill microbiota community has relied on the first sense of osmolality differences, and such changes were accomplished by the enriched osmosensing and metabolic pathways. Abstract The fish gill is the first tissue that is exposed to the external media and undergoes continuous osmotic challenges. Recently, our group published an article entitled “Integrated Omics Approaches Revealed the Osmotic Stress-Responsive Genes and Microbiota in Gill of Marine Medaka” in the journal mSystems (e0004722, 2022), and suggested the possible host-bacterium interaction in the fish gill during osmotic stress. The previous study was performed by the progressive fresh water transfer (i.e., seawater to fresh water transfer via 50% seawater (FW)). Our group hypothesized that osmotic gradient could be a factor that determines the microbiota communities in the gill. The current 16S rRNA metagenomic sequencing study found that the direct transfer (i.e., seawater to fresh water (FWd)) could result in different gill microbiota communities in the same fresh water endpoints. Pseduomonas was the dominant bacteria (more than 55%) in the FWd gill. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and MetaCyc analysis further suggested that the FWd group had enhanced osmosensing pathways, such as the ATP-binding cassette transporters, taurine degradation, and energy-related tricarboxylic acid metabolism compared to the FW group.
Quantitative spinal cord MRI and sexual dysfunction in multiple sclerosis

Background Sexual dysfunction (SD) is frequently reported in multiple sclerosis (MS) and is likely related to MS-related damage to the spinal cord (SC). Objective To assess associations between SD and quantitative MRI measures in people with MS (pwMS). Methods This pilot study included 17 pwMS with SD who completed questionnaires assessing SD, mood, and fatigue. All participants underwent brain, cervical, and thoracic SC-MRI at 3T. Quantitative brain and SC-MRI measures, including brain/SC atrophy, SC lesion count, diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI) indices (fractional anisotropy [FA], mean, perpendicular, parallel diffusivity [MD, λ⊥, λ||]) and magnetization-transfer ratio (MTR) were obtained. Associations between quantitative MRI measures and SD were assessed while controlling for the extent of mood and fatigue symptomatology. Results Subjects were a mean age of 46.9 years and 29% female. All subjects had self-reported SD (MSISQ-19 = 40.7, SQoL: 55.9) and 65% had a concurrent psychiatric diagnosis. When correlations between SD severity were assessed with individual brain and SC-MRI measures while controlling for psychiatric symptomatology, no associations were found. The only variables showing independent associations with SD were anxiety (p = 0.03), depression (p = 0.05), and fatigue (p = 0.04). Conclusion We found no correlations between quantitative MRI measures in the brain and SC and severity of SD in pwMS, but psychiatric symptomatology and fatigue severity demonstrated relationships with SD. The multifactorial nature of SD in pwMS mandates a multidisciplinary approach.
