Published: December 2020

Improper waste management has received remarkable attention from the stakeholders due to itsnegative impacts. Due to the increase in population, the waste generated in Malaysia also is increasing. Currently, landfilling is the main method of disposal. Considering few issues related with this approach such as the landfills have reached its capacity, environmental pollution as well as the bad condition of the landfill, alternative measure to manage the waste is crucial. Food waste can be utilized into other uses such as converting into fertilizer, electricity generation as well as the alternative for fuel. However, in order to implement such program, innovative measure for appropriate management of the food waste collection are required. In order to encourage the participation of household on food waste management, determining the preferred attributes by the household is crucial. Therefore, this study attempts to determine the household preferences for food waste management system in Malaysia as well as their willingness to pay for the food waste management system. The discrete choice experiment was used in order to accomplish the objectives of the study. The findings from this study suggests that the frequency and time of food waste collection are among the preferred attributes for food waste management system. The result also suggests that the willingness to pay for food waste management significantly varied by income and age of the respondents. Thus, it is suggested that if the government decides to come out with food waste management program, frequency and pick up time of the food waste are among important attributes that need to be considered.

Published: December 2020

Performance Appraisal System (PAS) is the tool the education department of Pakistan uses to evaluate the performance of teachers. Survey research was conducted to determine the satisfaction level of public-school teachers with conduction and outcomes of PAS. The correlational research design was planned to determine the perceptions of the teachers about their competencies in areas evaluated by PAS and its outcomes. A multistage random sampling technique was used to access the target sample of 900 higher secondary school teachers from 12 out of 36 districts of Punjab. Since it was a pioneer study, a self-constructed questionnaire was used for the survey piloted on two out of 12 selected districts. The questionnaire was distributed among 1200 teachers; 960 were retrieved, and 900 were tabulated and recorded on SPSS 21 for the final analysis. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were applied. After ensuring reliability, the items were factorized using the exploratory factor analysis technique yielding six factors. Pearson Correlation was conducted to determine the strength of the relationship among the variables, while multiple linear regressions using the stepwise method were conducted to get informed with the critical risk factors associated with the satisfaction of teachers with the conduction of PAS. The results reveal a highly complex situation faced by school teachers; though teachers have displayed complete knowledge about the conduction of the PAS process and its consequences, yet, not only the teachers seem deficient in the needed skills; they also lack motivation for self-development.

Published: December 2020

Career selection is about the career choice of an individual which should be according to the skills and aptitude of that individual in combination with his/her interests. This research was conducted to show the involvement of parents, societal values as well as the results of lack of career guidance and counseling programs. It was carried out through a survey of BS students of the Faculty of Social Sciences. The research is significant for parents as well as teachers to guide the students towards the right path while choosing their career. The data depicted that force from parents in career selection of their child is very dominant. Besides, lack of career guidance and counseling programs result in difficulties for students. Students choose career either by inspirations or based on their aspirations. There are too many fields but lack of guidance and counseling leads students to follow either what their elders want them to, or to follow their inspirations and aspirations. Career counseling programs are recommended for the students at an early stage which is very necessary and becoming the demand of the society as there are too many emerging fields.

Published: December 2020

Эпидемия COVID-19, которая превратилась в пандемию, затронувшую почти 50 миллионов человек, подобно тому, как добавила изменяющееся содержание в человеческий мир, она также открыла новую эру в экономической жизни, которая будет сопровождаться радикальными изменениями. Впервые в глобальном масштабе эта ситуация отражена в ежедневной базе данных, личной гигиене и безопасности почти каждого из нас. В настоящее время новости о пандемии на различных сайтах в интернете без исключения лидируют среди заголовок. Пандемия приносит начало новым подходам во всей социально-экономической жизни. Ее последствия, связанные с жизнью человека, первоначально нашли отражение в самом медицинском состоянии. Таким образом, как в глобальном масштабе, так и в контексте отдельных стран заметная некомпетентность здравоохранения перед лицом пандемии, бросила тень на ее коммерческо-частную сущность как структуры экономики.Осознанным является то что, сила и важность государственного здравоохранения и частного, основанного на бизнесе медицинского обслуживания, и в целом, система показателей и структурное качество сектора стали наиболее широко обсуждаемой темой в этой области.
Прежде всего, в общем подходе на первый план были поставлены нехватка больниц, кроватей, медицинского персонала и оборудования, особенно во всех этих сегментах, связанных с инфекционными заболеваниями. Это показывает, что система здравоохранения большинства стран не была готова к такой ситуации. Результатом этого является то, что новая пандемия коронавируса повысила интерес к медицинским технологиям и сопровождалась ростом инвестиций в данном области.
ВЛИЯНИЕ КРИЗИСА COVID-19 НА ЭКОНОМИКУ, ЭНЕРГЕТИКУ И ПРИМЕНЕНИЕ ПОЗИТИВНЫХ МЕР

Published: December 2020

Глобальная пандемия COVID-19 ввергла экономики ведущих стран в кризис. В большинстве стран предприятия практически прекратили свою деятельность, в результате чено упали как производство, так и покупательная способность населения. При том, что государства делают всё возможное для защиты энергетической и продовольственной безопасности, в связи со сложившейся ситуацией спрос на энергию снизился в несколько раз из-за максимального сбоя международных и внутренних перевозок. Неясно, как долго продлится этот кризис. Поэтому многие страны решили сократить добычу нефти. Конечно, это может привести к глобальному экономическому кризису в целом. Ответственность за это, в первую очередь, лежит на медицинском персонале. Потому что они стабилизируют ситуацию, решив вопрос с вакцинами. Несмотря на всё это, добиться положительного результата в столь непростой период можно только благодаря манёврам дальновидных глав государств. Можно сказать, что Азербайджанское государство умело справляется с этой миссией.
Ключевые слова: энергетическая безопасность, добыча нефти, кризисная ситуация, потребление и производство, вакцина, оценки и прогнозы, жёсткая конкуренция, предпочтения политиков, классифицировать предприятия, решения глобальных проблем.

Cara Pandang Guru Kristen terhadap Otoritas dalam Kerangka Kisah Agung
Authors: Sandi Dinda Mawar , Nainggolan Cathryne Berliana
Published: December 2020

The teacher is an influential person in the classroom. The magnitude of this influence is because the teacher has the authority to be responsible in the classroom. However, not all teachers can exercise their authority in the classroom properly. Teachers treat students too hard or too softly in class so that it takes the teacher's role to be able to carry out their duties with the right authority. Teachers will be able to exercise authority properly if they have the right perspective on authority. The purpose of this paper is to explain the importance of a Christian teacher's perspective in exercising authority in the classroom towards students. The research method used is literature review, using books and journals related to the topic. The teacher's authority is the authority given by God the highest authority. The Great Story is a Biblical framework of creation, fall, redemption, and exaltation. Since the beginning of creation, God has given authority to Adam & Eve to rule and maintain the earth. This proves that the teacher's authority is a gift from God that must be worked out. The result of writing this paper is that the Christian perspective on authority is the basis for teachers to exercise their authority. This perspective helps Christian teachers understand the source and purpose of the authority given, which is for the glory of God so that the teacher can exercise his authority properly.AbstrakGuru merupakan pribadi yang berpengaruh di dalam kelas. Besarnya pengaruh tersebut dikarenakan guru memiliki otoritas untuk bertanggung jawab di dalam kelas. Namun demikian, tidak semua guru dapat menjalankan otoritasnya di dalam kelas dengan baik. Guru memperlakukan siswa terlalu keras atau terlalu lembut di kelas sehingga dibutuhkan peran guru untuk dapat menjalankan tugasnya dengan otoritas yang benar. Guru akan dapat menjalankan otoritas dengan benar jika memiliki dasar cara pandang yang benar pula mengenai otoritas. Tujuan dari makalah ini untuk menjelaskan pentingnya cara pandang guru Kristen dalam menjalankan otoritas di kelas terhadap siswa. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kajian pustaka, dengan menggunakan buku dan jurnal yang terkait dengan topik. Otoritas guru merupakan otoritas yang diberikan oleh Tuhan sang pemegang otoritas tertinggi. Kisah Agung adalah kerangka pikir Alkitab yang terdiri dari penciptaan, kejatuhan, penebusan, dan pemuliaan. Sejak awal penciptaan, Tuhan sudah memberikan otoritas kepada Adam dan Hawa untuk menguasai dan memelihara bumi. Hal tersebut membuktikan bahwa otoritas yang dimiliki guru adalah pemberian Tuhan yang harus dikerjakan. Hasil dari penulisan makalah ini adalah cara pandang Kristen terhadap otoritas adalah dasar guru menjalankan otoritasnya. Cara pandang tersebut membantu guru Kristen memahami sumber dan tujuan otoritas yang diberikan yaitu untuk kemuliaan Allah sehingga guru dapat mempraktikkan otoritasnya dengan benar.

Nutraceuticals For L-Arginine:glycine Amidinotransferase Modulation: An Overview
Authors: Ostojic Sergej M.
Published: December 2020

L-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase is the first enzyme in creatine biosynthesis. The activity of this enzyme is tightly regulated in vivo to maintain normal creatine metabolism. Since the enzyme activity appears to be compromised in medical conditions, such as heart failure, chronic kidney disease, or stroke, it is a tempting target for upregulation in conditions with low creatine levels. This paper provides an update on specific nutraceuticals that are reported to modulate L-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase activity and discusses possible implications of targeting this enzyme in experimental and clinical nutrition. Several promising nutritional agents (e.g. creatine, norvaline, cysteine) have been identified that modulate L-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase activity and the resultant cellular bioenergetics. However, most studies lack a apparent mechanism(s) of action and clinical applicability, with only one compound identified so far for much-needed L-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase upregulation.

Published: December 2020

Pendahuluan : Orang tua tentu mengharapkan memiliki anak yang sehat dan dapat berkembang dengan baik. Akan tetapi terkadang tidak semua anak dapat lahir dengan kondisi sehat. Kelahiran seorang anak yang memiliki kebutuhan khusus tentunya dapat menjadi beban bagi keluarga itu sendiri sehingga dapat mempengaruhi penerimaan orang tua terhadap anak itu sendiri. Permasalahannya adalah kebanyakan penelitian yang dilakukan terkait factor yang mempengaruhi penerimaan orang tua terhadap anak berkebutuhan khusus masih terfokus pada salah satu factor dan belum menjelaskan factor dominannya. Metodologi : Metode yang digunakan pada penelitian adalah korelasi analitik. Responden pada penelitian ini adalah orang tua anak berkebutuhan khusus di 3 SLB wilayah Propinsi Bali dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 76 responden. Variable diukur menggunakan kuesioner. Pengujian hipotesa dilakukan dengan Spearman Rho.Hasil : Hasil analisa hubungan didapatkan ada hubungan yang bermakna antara pendidikan dan penerimaan orang tua terhadap anak retardasi mental dengan nilai signifikan P= 0,000, nilai r = 0,612 dan arah korelasi kedua variabel bersifat positif (+).Diskusi :  Kurangnya pengetahuan dan informasi merupakan faktor yang sangat berpengaruh pada penerimaan anak retardasi mental dimana tingkat pendidikan yang tinggi akan lebih  mudah mencari informasi dan memahami masalah yang dialami oleh anak dan mencari penyembuhan. Penerimaan orang tua adalah perasaan atau perilaku orang tua yang dapat menerima keberadaan anaknya tanpa syarat seperti rasa sayang, kelekatan, kepedulian, dukungan dan pengasuhan. faktor penyebab keluarga tidak menerima anak mereka disebabkan karena keluarga tidak memiliki informasi, pengetahuan dan kesiapan dalam menerima anak mereka. Hal ini yang menyebabkan saat anak mereka lahir dan mengalami tumbuh kembang yang tidak normal, keluarga menganggap mereka adalah anak yang merepotkan dan aib dalam keluarga. Selain itu sikap tidak menerima kehadiran anak dengan retardasi mental juga dipengaruhi oleh penolakan dari lingkungan sosial yang beranggapan bahwa mereka adalah hambatan dalam masyarakat

PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGICAL APPROACH TO SOLVING THE PROBLEM OF ADAPTATION
Authors: Гончаров Вадим
Published: December 2020

The basic concept of the proposed psychophysiological approach to adaptation is the principle of synchronization, consistency of the functioning of organs and systems in the process of behavioral reactions. Awareness of these relationships and their active use will significantly increase the effectiveness of adaptation.Emotional tension leads to an unconscious tension of the muscular apparatus. Stress becomes a constant companion in the life of most people. At the same time, muscle relaxation, according to the feedback mechanism, leads to a decrease in emotional stress, a decrease in the severity of mental discomfort. Regular physical activity can increase resistance to external adverse factors.It is the ability to easily and quickly pass into diametrically opposite states - from complete rest to maximum activity - that is an indicator of effective adaptation. Ability achieved by training.
DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF PRIMARY MINOR IMMUNODEFICIENCIES IN PATIENTS WITH RECURRENT UROGENITAL INFECTIONS AND IMMUNE-DEPENDENT INFERTILITY
Authors: Мальцев Дмитро
Published: December 2020

It has now been established that immunosuppressive status is observed in patients with recurrent urogenital infections caused by opportunistic and low virulent microflora. A pooled analysis of the known prevalence rates of the 30 currently known mild human immune dysfunctions suggests that at least 20% of the current population (in one in five people) is currently affected by at least one primary minor immunodeficiency. This contradicts the established but erroneous view of the rarity of primary immunodeficiencies in humans.Therefore, the diagnosis of primary minor immunodeficiencies should be an integral part of modern routine medical practice of specialists in various fields. This article presents the classification of minor primary human immunodeficiencies, considers the differences between major and minor immune dysfunctions, as well as the algorithm of clinical diagnosis of primary minor immunodeficiencies and modern approaches to treatment.Detection of genetically determined disease of the immune system can not only explain the atypical course of opportunistic or low virulent infections of the urogenital tract and reduced fertility, but can also open the way to the appointment of targeted immunotherapy to compensate for the causative immunodeficiency. This can take the effectiveness of the applied interventions to a qualitatively new level, solving even severe clinical problems.

The study was based on biopsies and necropsies, based on histological methods.Results. The article is devoted to the study of structural and functional changes in the male genitourinary system in the development of cryptosporidiosis. The authors of the study emphasize the features of the nomenclature profile of cryptosporidiosis, its low certainty, the place among modern protozoal infections. The paper draws attention to the emergence of the disease, the specifics of its clinical course, the characteristics of the most accessible and effective methodological (histological) algorithm. The publication presents data on structural and functional changes of the urethra, testicles, kidneys of children with cryptosporidiosis (proven participation of the inflammatory component, destructive processes, trophic disorders). Researchers have focused on the peculiarities of the structure of the mucous membranes of the genitourinary organs in terms of cryptosporidiosis, destruction of the epithelium, microcirculation disorders. It is assumed that the factors of influence / strengthening of the latter were the activation of lysosomal (hydrolytic) enzymes capable of cleaving lipid - protein complexes of membranes.As a result, the opinion is expressed about the role of cryptosporidiosis in the development of male infertility.Conclusions. In the case of cryptosporidiosis, the most vulnerable structures of the male genitourinary system are cells of mesenchymal origin (epithelium).They are characterized by atrophy, desquamation, destructive-degenerative changes, necrosis. The destruction of the endothelial layer of microvessels leads to defects in the layers of the walls of the latter, thrombosis, the development of stasis, impaired microcirculation and trophism
Mathematical Modelling and Computer Simulation of the Flow in Thin Gap Channel due to Alternating Volumetric Mass Forces
Authors: Kazachkov Ivan V.
Published: December 2020

The mathematical modelling and computer simulation are presented for the complex flow in thin gap channel due to alternating volumetrically distributed mass forces. The flow equations and obtained analytical solutions for limit cases are considered in the cylindrical coordinate system with the axis directed along the channel, which is rotating around its axis. The channel is placed inside the cylinder on the edge of the circular horizontal disk, which is rotating around vertical axis in its centre. The two rotations around different perpendicular axes create complex unknown features in a flow due to the alternating centrifugal and Coriolis forces, which substantially vary by the angle. The centrifugal force from the disk rotation is directed to its edge, while the centrifugal force due to rotation of the channel is acting by the channel’s radius. As a result, the two different centrifugal forces are directed counter currently in one side of the channel and vary by the angle up to adding of the two of them in the same direction in the opposite side of the channel. The conditions may fit to the strong cavitation regime inside the volume of fluid flow due to a stretching of the liquid in some locations.

History and myths: how to create an objective picture of the Great Patriotic War for schoolchildren
Authors: Акопян П.А.
Published: December 2020

Автор полагает, что создание у учащихся объективной картины Великой Отечественной войны возможно, если только к этому подходить комплексно и профессионально. Отношение к войне на «ты», которое часть из нас показывает подрастающему поколению, лишает ее основных смыслов, а обесценивание этой темы, на мой взгляд, является одной из причин, по которой сознание молодежи подвержено мифологизации и передергиванию фактов. Автор предлагает апробированный педагогический инструментарий для созданий у подрастающего поколения прочного иммунитета против переигрывания истории.

The author believes that it is possible to create an objective picture of the Great Patriotic War among students, if only they approach it holistically and professionally. The attitude to the war on «you», which some of us show to the younger generation, makes its main meanings pointless, and the devaluation of this topic, in his opinion, is one of the reasons why the young minds are subject to mythologization and twisting the facts. The author offers an approved pedagogical tool for creating a strong immunity for the younger generation against replaying history.

The results showed that community participation in this program is the main key as a planning initiator to the implementing activities. These disaster risk reduction efforts are carried out by identifying community risks, determining action plans, funding, involving opinion leaders as parties raised by the community, forming messages, to the communication channel mechanism.
REVISITING THEORIES OF LANGUAGE AND POVERTY: EVIDENCES FROM CHINA
Authors: Wang Chunhui
Published: December 2020

The concept of poverty involves a complex issue embedded in multi-factorial, multidimensional and multi-layered aspects. Therefore, the theoretical and empirical studies on the relationship between language and poverty constitute a dynamic and flexible system. Poverty affects both children’s language development and adults’ use of language. It affects the former by social conditions and neural mechanism, and the impacts of the latter can be interpreted by the concepts of social network and scarcity. Language competence shapes social and economic conditions based on longitudinal and synchronic studies. Language constitutes a probabilistic factor shaping the socioeconomic conditions of individuals, families, regions and countries. Given that the research on alleviating poverty through language has been exerting a greater influence in China’s anti-poverty course, the concept of “target-oriented poverty alleviation through language” has been rephrased and clarified by referencing the scarcity theory. The current studies on language and poverty have been driven by China’s poverty alleviation policies and practices. I believe that the relevant theoretical and empirical studies conducted in China have some broader implications for the international community.
“LANGUAGE LIFE” IN THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA OVER THE PAST SEVEN DECADES
Authors: Xi Guo
Published: December 2020

Over the past seven decades, the Chinese language has seen continuous changes that emerged as the result of radical changes in the socio-political-cultural context of China. Drawing from an extensive literature review of previous studies on the Chinese language development trajectory, this paper revisits and reflects on language practices in China and the respective features of language life in several key milestone periods since the establishment of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). The findings show that in general, China’s language planning and policy implementation have succeeded in managing language life for both the public and institutions. The success is demonstrated in the following aspects: nationwide popularization of the national common language (Guojia Tongyongyu); realization of the linguistic goal of the unification of speech and writing for the first time in the Chinese history; continuous improvement of overall language life across the society; and healthy development of language life towards diversity and harmony. This paper concludes that the use and development of Chinese over the past seven decades deserve further studies.
СОЦИОЛИНГВИСТИЧЕСКАЯ ПРОБЛЕМАТИКА В ТРАКТАТЕ КЛАУДИО ТОЛОМЕИ «ЧЕЗАНО» (1525)
Authors: Жолудева Любовь И.
Published: December 2020

Статья посвящена итальянскому ренессансному трактату о языке — «Чезано» Клаудио Толомеи (ок. 1525; опубл. 1555). Это сочинение примечательно тем, что в нем проблемы языкового нормирования в Италии обсуждаются в широком социолингвистическом контексте. Так, автор пишет о происхождении и базовых функциях языка, о языковых контактах и их роли в процессах лингвогенеза, о соотношении узуса и кодифицированной нормы, о важности функционально-стилистической диверсификации литературного языка, о системных фонетических и грамматических изменениях от латыни к итальянскому языку и о первостепенной роли живой коммуникации в процессе обучения языку. К 1555 году, когда трактат был опубликован, итальянская прескриптивная норма была уже в целом сформирована на прецедентной основе (с опорой на произведения классиков флорентийской литературы Треченто). На фоне других итальянских лингвистических сочинений той же эпохи «Чезано» К. Толомеи выделяется тем, что в нем последовательно проводится мысль о первостепенной роли узуса в процессе нормализации языка. Многие из наблюдений К. Толомеи, возможно не до конца оцененные его современниками, находят параллели в современных лингвистических концепциях (в частности, в работах по социолингвистике и теории языкового варьирования).

Abstract                                                        

SiC ceramic foams were manufactured by direct microwave heating up to 1520 ºC. Silicon carbide (42-68 wt.%), quartz sand as a silica supplier (20-38 wt.%), coal fly ash (12-20 wt.%) and a constant water addition of 15 wt.% were used as starting materials. The ceramic foam samples had semi-open microstructures in which neighboring cells are partially connected to each other and partially closed. Due to the very dense cellular walls and the very low cells size (below 21 μm), the compressive strength had very high values (41.3-56.5MPa), the porosity was within an average value range (52.4-57.6%) and the thermal conductivity and the apparent density had relatively high values. In energy terms, the technique of direct microwave heating was very advantageous, the specific energy consumption being very low (1.04-1.21 kWh/kg) compared to the consumptions achieved by conventional methods. The application field of SiC ceramic foams obtained by the bonding method and using silica as a bonding agent includes hot gas or molten metal filters, porous burners, catalytic supports and others. From the four tested experimental variants, it could be concluded that the optimal sample was that achieved at 1520 ºC with 68% silicon carbide, 20% quartz sand, 12% coal fly ash and 15% water addition, having the porosity of 57.6%, thermal conductivity of 0.174 W/m·K, compressive strength of 56.5 MPa and the equivalent pore size between 9-21 μm.
Face-ism and military leadership
Authors: Ku Xyle , Hyun Seungju , Ko Jaewon
Published: December 2020

Deriving inferences from facial appearance is called face-ism. In particular, people make rapid and accurate inferences about the targets' character based on their appearance. Over the last 15 years, the effects of a leader's facial appearance have been vigorously studied in the domain of psychology and leadership research worldwide. Previous studies suggest that facial appearance significantly predicts leader selection, thus leading more competent, dominant, trustworthy, and attractive individuals to be selected as leaders. Further, they indicate that this relationship depends on the circumstances (i.e., wartime and time of peace). The current study reviewed recent research on face-ism and leadership, while discussing the factors of the face effects, the main method, findings, limitations, and future directions of the research. Finally, the authors discussed the implications of face-ism in the field of military leadership.
The Formation of Glycolonitrile (HOCH2CN) from Reactions of C+ with HCN and HNC on Icy Grain Mantles
Authors: Woon David E.
Published: December 2020

Quantum chemical cluster calculations show that reactions of C+ with HCN or HNC embedded in the surface of an icy grain mantle can account for the formation of a recently detected molecule, glycolonitrile, which is considered to be an important precursor to ribonucleic compounds. Reactions of cations deposited on ice mantles with minimal kinetic energy have been found theoretically to result in previously unknown pathways to significant organic compounds in protostellar systems and the interstellar medium. In density functional theory cluster calculations involving up to 24H2O, C+ reacts consistently with HCN embedded in ice to yield the neutral HOCHNC radical with no barrier, along with H3O+ as a byproduct. If HOCHNC then reacts with H, three species can be formed: HOCH2NC (isocyanomethanol), HOCH2CN (glycolonitrile), and HOCHNCH. For the C++ HNC reaction on ice, the HOCHCN and H2OCCN radicals form as intermediates, the first of which is another direct precursor to glycolonitrile via H addition. In addition to characterizing reaction pathways, predictions are provided of the vibrational and electronic spectra of the HCN and HNC starting clusters and the HOCHNC ice-bound intermediate.
Global Spiral Density Wave Modes in Protoplanetary Disks: Morphology of Spiral Arms
Authors: Chen Enze , Yu Si-Yue , Ho Luis C.
Published: December 2020

We analyze two-armed global spiral density wave modes generated by gravitational instability in razor-thin, nonviscous, self-gravitating protoplanetary disks to understand the dependence of spiral arm morphology (pitch angle α and amplitude) on various disk conditions. The morphologies of the resulting spiral density wave modes closely resemble observations. Their pitch angles and pattern speeds are insensitive to the boundary conditions adopted. Gaussian disks exhibit more tightly wound spirals (smaller pitch angle) than power-law disks under the same conditions. We find that at a fixed disk-to-star mass ratio (M

d
/M
*), the pitch angle increases with average Toomre’s stability parameter (

) or average disk aspect ratio (

). For a given

, density wave modes with higher M

d
/M
* have larger pitch angles, while the behavior reverses for a given

. The interdependence between pitch angle and disk properties can be roughly approximated by

, where c

s
is the sound speed. Our gravitational instability-excited spiral density waves can be distinguished from planet-launched spirals: (1) massive cool disks have spiral pitch angle falling with radius, while low-mass hot disks have spiral pitch angle rising with radius; (2) the profile of spiral amplitude presents several dips and bumps. We propose that gravitational instability-excited density waves can serve as an alternative scenario to explain the observed spiral arms in self-gravitating protoplanetary disks.
