Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz’ Primero sueño als Allegorie der (Nicht-)Erfahrung
Authors: Lansen Greta
Published: September 2024

Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz’s Primero sueño is a text about the search for knowledge that does not come primarily from books, but from her own transcendental experience. The poem does not tell us a (knowledge) story in the true sense of the word, but unfolds a specific model of the thirst for knowledge. The poetry of Primero sueño symbolizes the free and passionate longing for knowledge and ambiguously rejects the act of knowing. The fact that the lyrical ego explicitly recognizes itself as a female in the very last verse can be interpreted in various ways, which are discussed in the article.
Gewohnheit und Erziehung. Zur Rolle von habitude und coutume bei Montaigne, Fénelon, Du Marsais und Madame de Maintenon
Authors: Schaefer Christina
Published: September 2024

This paper examines the role of habit and custom in educational writings from 16th- to 18th-century France. Authors like Michel de Montaigne, François de Fénelon, César Chesneau Du Marsais and Madame de Maintenon highly recognize the importance of habit and custom (habitude, coutume) for the education of children. Yet, their opinions diverge with regard to the consequences and the educational functions of habit and custom. In a first step (section 2), I will outline some major positions on the relationship between coutume/habitude and education in Montaigne’s Essais (1580/88), Fénelon’s Traité sur l’éducation des filles (1687) and Du Marsais’ article on „Éducation“ in the Encyclopédie (1755). Two further sections are devoted to Madame de Maintenon and her Conversations (or Loisirs, posth. 1757): in section 3, I will focus on the importance of habit and habituation in Madame de Maintenon’s practical education of girls in the Maison royale de Saint Louis in Saint-Cyr, a school that Maintenon founded for poor noble girls. In this context, special attention will be paid to the performative and theatrical aspects of her educational concept. In the last part (section 4), I examine the role attributed to habit and custom in the text of the Conversations. I will argue that this role, which is strongly linked to the idea of toughening up girls for a future life as a good mère de famille, may be explained by both the historical context of the French 17th century and Madame de Maintenon’s personal experiences.
„O Kinder, möchtet Ihr dergleichen nie erfahren“
Authors: Viehöver Vera
Published: September 2024

The autobiography of Margarethe Elisabeth Milow, a merchant’s daughter from Hamburg, is not only a precious source for the living conditions of protestant middle-class women in the 18th century, but it also illustrates that writing was practised as one habit among many others. The paper shows that the formally heterogeneous text owes its existence to strict routines, which Milow carried out conscientiously until her death. As she addresses her report to her children, it can also be read as an educational text: Fulfilling the demand of the admired theologian Julius Gustav Alberti for a progressive religious education centred on the life of the individual, Milow places herself as a narrator matured by female experience who finds instructive exempla in her own life story. Finally, the paper reveals a tension in Milow’s writing: On the one hand, she writes (family) history out of a strong sense of duty, on the other hand, she writes for the pleasure of exploring her talent to tell effectively constructed stories.
Keadilan di Balik Jeruji Kekerasan: Dinamika Putusan Pengadilan dalam Kasus Perceraian Akibat KDRT
Authors: Elvionita Elsa , Zulfan  , Elfia
Published: September 2024

Kemarahan yang tidak terkendali dapat memicu kekerasan, termasuk dalam konteks Kekerasan Dalam Rumah Tangga (KDRT). Penelitian ini menggunakan metode yuridis normatif untuk mengeksplorasi peran pengadilan dalam penyelesaian sengketa perkawinan akibat KDRT, mencakup aspek hukum, psikologis, dan sosial. Undang-Undang Nomor 23 Tahun 2004 tentang Penghapusan Kekerasan Dalam Rumah Tangga menyediakan kerangka hukum untuk melindungi korban dari berbagai bentuk KDRT, seperti kekerasan fisik, psikis, seksual, dan penelantaran. Pengadilan diharapkan berfungsi tidak hanya sebagai tempat penyelesaian sengketa, tetapi juga sebagai lembaga yang memberikan keadilan dan perlindungan bagi korban serta berperan dalam pencegahan KDRT di masa depan. Oleh karena itu, penulis tertarik untuk mengkaji masalah ini guna memahami peran pengadilan dalam menangani kasus KDRT dan memastikan perlindungan yang lebih efektif bagi korban.

Authors: Aydın Alim , Başak Hakan , Aydın Hamide , Güngör Ramazan
Published: September 2024

Identifying the morphological characteristics of genetic material such as leaf, flower, yield, and fruit shape is crucial to genetic diversity assessment. Agronomic and morphological traits of 47 tomato plants in F2 generation were assessed, as well as their resistance to Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus (TSWV) and Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus (TYLCV). The highest average fruit weight of the tomato lines in F2 generation was measured in the plants of the line with pink beef fruit type (G300), while the lowest was measured in the plants of the lines with round (cocktail) (S15) and ovate (V30, V31 and V32) fruit types. The highest fruit flesh firmness was measured as 2.74 kg/cm2 in F2 plants of line S230 with single red fruit type. The highest SSC (soluble solids content) was measured in F2 plants of line V31 and S230 with 6.93% and 6.73%, respectively. The longest internode was determined in F2 plants of the line with single red (S230) fruit type, while the highest stem diameter was measured in plants of the line with pink (G300) fruit type. Despite the variation in leaf color, G300 and S230 plants have potato-shaped leaves, while the other lines have tomato-shaped leaves. There were 2 homozygote resistant plants and 8 heterozygote resistant plants among the F2 plants. Among the F2 plants, 2 plants were homozygote resistant and 8 plants were heterozygote resistant to TYLCV. Heterozygote resistance to TSWV was detected only in 6 plants of line V30 and no resistance to TSWV was detected in plants of other lines. The F3 lines obtained by selfing because of the study can be the material of the breeding programmes in the coming years and testing studies against biotic and abiotic factors should be carried out. The results obtained here should be reinforced with further studies such as the determination of post-harvest preservation storage and shelf-life potentials.

Dynamics of Mentalization, Affect Regulation, and Psychosis Vulnerability: A Longitudinal Network Model
Authors: Ozdemir Ercan , MacBeth Angus , Griffiths Helen
Published: September 2024

Objectives. Affective dysregulation is a significant risk factor for psychosis, which can be underpinned by disruptions of mentalizing and attachment processes. These disruptions may heighten psychosis risk by interacting with psychosis vulnerability domains such as schizotypy and aberrant salience. The current study examined the unfolding of affective dysregulation and psychosis vulnerability in the context of mentalization and attachment.Method. Study variables were measured using self-report scales. A two-wave cohort study design was implemented with a 6-month assessment interval. The cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between mentalizing, attachment, negative affect, aberrant salience, and schizotypy were estimated using network modeling. Results. The study involved 312 participants aged 18 to 37 years, with 77% identifying as female and 57% receiving mental health treatment during the follow-up period. Results indicated that mentalizing impairment was central in linking concurrent negative affect, attachment disturbances, and psychosis vulnerability, and served as a temporal bridge connecting multiple dimensions of psychosis vulnerability.Conclusion. Mentalizing impairments can heighten psychosis risk by maintaining affective dysregulation and consolidating psychosis vulnerability. The results may be influenced by potential sampling errors, as indicated by the analyses of network stability and accuracy. Interventions promoting mentalizing capacity may attenuate psychosis risk.
Motion Out of Time: Single Speed Hypothesis
Authors: Degu Temesgen
Published: September 2024

This study delves into the concept of velocity within the context of the physical interpretation of acceleration and deceleration for objects in motion through space. A thought experiment involving a marble and a photon is utilized to propose the hypothesis that all objects in space, inherently, do not take time to move from a specific source to a destination. Through a series of methodically structured thought experiments, this hypothesis and the accompanying conclusions are explored and validated. Newton’s first law of motion serves as the basis for these scenarios, enabling logical conclusions to be drawn. Based on the arguments presented, this hypothesis is used to provide a novel interpretation of quantum mechanics. The methodology emphasizes logical reasoning over detailed mathematical formulations, offering a more accessible presentation.
Generative Artificial Intelligence and Digital Ageism: Exploring the Construction of Age and Aging by Image-Generating AI
Authors: Kamelski Tobias , Klinge Denise
Published: September 2024

Since 2022, the growing attention to and public accessibility of generative artificial intelligence (AI) have become essential for knowledge acquisition on digital platforms. Generative image AI is trained on large datasets but remains socially situated in the biases of its creators as well as the inherent limitations of the training data used. Existing research has pointed out that AI models display gendered and racial biases. However, the visual construction of age through generative AI models remains unexplored. This paper presents a documentary image interpretation of 200 images of aged individuals to analyze the visual construction of age across different AI models. The results show different constructions of age, ranging from an uncanny idealism to the fragility of age.
B3AM: A beamforming toolbox for three-component ambient seismic noise analysis
Authors: Löer Katrin , Finger Claudia
Published: September 2024

We introduce the code package B3AM for beamforming of three-component ambient noise array data, which is available for MATLAB and Python. We explain the theory behind three-component beamforming and polarisation analysis in particular, provide an overview of the workflow, and discuss the output using a worked example based on the MATLAB implementation. The strength of the presented code package is the analysis of multiple beam response maps from multiple time windows. Hence, it provides statistical information about the ambient noise wavefield recorded over a period of time, such as the ratio of surface to body waves, average dispersion velocities, or dominant propagation direction. It can be used to validate assumptions made about the ambient noise wavefield in a particular location, helping to interpret results from other techniques, such as the analysis of horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratios or ambient noise interferometry, and enabling more precise monitoring of specific wavefield components. While designed initially with seismic networks in mind, B3AM is applicable over a wide range of frequencies and array sizes and can thus be adapted also for laboratory settings or civil engineering applications.
Learned Distractor Rejection: Robust but Surprisingly Rapid
Authors: Savelson Isaac , Hauck Christopher , Lien Mei-Ching , Ruthruff Eric , Leber Andrew B.
Published: September 2024

The ability to reduce the distraction associated with repetitive irrelevant stimuli is critical to goal-directed navigation of the visual environment. Research has supported the existence of such an ability, which has often been referred to as learned distractor rejection (Vatterott & Vecera, 2012). However, despite being theoretically relevant to many prominent accounts of distractor ignoring, few studies have directly tested learned distractor rejection since its conception. In the current study we present three direct replications of Vatterott and Vecera’s method that were separately conducted by two independent groups of researchers. Using the conventional split-block analysis, all three replications produce nearly identical results that fail to replicate the original study’s finding. However, using analyses on a finer-grained timescale we found compelling evidence for the existence of a learned ignoring of salient distractors. Critically, this learning occurred much more rapidly than has been previously assumed, taking only 2-3 encounters with the distracting item before efficient rejection emerged.
Imitation of F0 tone contours by Mandarin and English speakers is both categorical and continuous
Authors: Zhang Wei , Clayards Meghan , Sonderegger Morgan
Published: September 2024

The perception of Mandarin flat-falling tonal contrast has been proposed to be guided by both linguistic categories, expected in native speakers, and psychophysical categories, relevant to all speakers. A recent study has shown that phonetic imitation of Mandarin tones is mediated by categories, but it remains unclear whether this non-linear imitation is mediated by linguistic categories, psychophysical categories, or both. To address this question, the current study investigated the categorization and imitation of a Mandarin flat-falling tonal continuum by both Mandarin speakers and English speakers who were naïve to tonal languages. Imitation distributions were analyzed by comparing the fit of a linear regression model, which assumes participants linearly track phonetic cues, and a Gaussian mixture regression model, which assumes imitation reflects underlying categories. Results revealed that both groups imitated the tonal continuum as a mixture of ‘flat’ and ‘falling’ categories while also tracking some within-category F0 variations. However, Mandarin speakers’ imitation was more categorical than that of the English speakers, and hyper-articulation was elicited only in Mandarin speakers’ imitations. Results suggest that imitation reflects two sources: pre-existing categories and within-category variation in the phonetic cues signaling the category, and that imitation is mediated by not only linguistic categories but also by lower-level psychophysical categories.
Compromiso gástrico por enfermedad relacionada con IgG4
Authors: Jaramillo Trujillo Gilberto , Ruiz Oscar Fernando , González Pabón Melissa , Jaramillo Trujillo Maria Andrea
Published: September 2024

Introduction: IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a recently described entity, characterized by IgG4+ infiltration of plasma cells and storiform pattern sclerosis mediated by CD4+ lymphocytes and follicular helper T-cells (Tfhs). Most patients present with adenopathy and weight loss. Among the most affected sites are the pancreas, salivary and lacrimal glands, aorta, and retroperitoneum. Gastric involvement is rare. Diagnosis is based on histopathological examination of the involved organ, clinical manifestations, and serological results. Glucocorticoid therapy is the first line management. Case report: a 38-year-old male patient with symptoms suggestive of upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, upper GI endoscopy revealed a gastric corpus ulcer, suspicious of an ulcerated gastric subepithelial lesion, possibly a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Consequently, laparoscopic subtotal gastrectomy was performed. Histology was compatible with an ulcerated IgG4-related fibrosclerosing tumor. Glucocorticoid therapy was started with patient´s favorable response. Conclusion: in this paper, we will review the cases of IgG4-RD with gastric involvement reported in the literature to describe the most important features of this condition.

Published: September 2024

Introduction: The fall risk and fall-related injuries, as well as the risk of developing delirium, represent a constantly increasing public health problem, especially in societies with an aging population. Objective: This study aimed to assess the level of risk for falls in patients before hip or knee surgery and the frequency of delirium after hip or knee surgery. Materials & Methods: The study was conducted as an observational, analytical cross-sectional study by surveying hospitalized patients at the Clinic for Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology,  Novi-Sad, Serbia, between the beginning of December 2022 and the end of January 2023.
Results: From the total number of patients (N = 106), the majority (61.3%) were over 70 years of age, of which the largest number were female (female = 80 (75.5%)). The highest percentage of respondents had a level II fall risk (73.6%), while level I and level III risks had 14 respondents each (13.2%). The results of the 4AT score showed that the largest number of patients, N = 50 (47.2%), had delirium or cognitive impairment with low probability, with possible cognitive impairment in 40 patients (37.7%), while delirium was possible in 16 patients (15.1%).
Conclusion: Orthopedic patients hospitalized at the University Clinical Center had level II fall risk, and the largest number of these patients had a low probability of cognitive impairment or postoperative delirium.

La mise en discours de la détransition sur Twitter (2017–2020)
Authors: Millette Mélanie , Turbide Olivier , Paré-Roy Edith , Chartrand-Deschamps Elya , Pullen Sansfaçon Annie
Published: September 2024

Contexte : La détransition est comprise comme l’interruption ou le renversement d’une transition de genre. Les discours de détransition sur Twitter forment des « cadres interprétatifs » publics qui influencent le sens de la détransition et de la transition de genre.

Analyses : À partir d’un corpus de 10 628 tweets, l’analyse qualitative des 2 396 tweets les plus visibles révèle trois cadres dominants traversés par l’idéologie gender-critical : (1) la transition est une erreur de parcours; (2) la détransition constitue le retour au sexe/genre assigné à la naissance; (3) les facteurs expliquant la détransition sont internes et soutiennent une position anti-transition ou pro- gatekeeping.

Conclusion et implications : Ces cadres produisent une rhétorique anti-trans contribuant à marginaliser les conceptions fluides du genre et transaffirmatives de la détransition.

The paper presents a method for the extraction of copper from sulfuric acid solutions, which reduces the consumption of sulfuric acid, increases the extraction of copper and the quality of cathode copper, and reduces the undesirable formation of the third-phase crud. The main results of copper extraction, including 2-3 stepwise extraction of copper, are presented. The extraction is carried out by mixing sulfuric acid solutions with a solution of a chelating, selective extractant of the aldoxime group (10 vol.%) and separating the mixture by settling to obtain a copper-containing extract and extraction raffinate, with the suppression of the third phase-crud due to the dissolution of polymerized silicon bonds in the cruds with a monomeric polymer (H2C═CHC6H4SO3Na)n poly(4-sodium styrene sulfonate). This is achieved by adding 5 cm³ of the polymer, influenced by the surfactant complex of sodium alkyl sulfonate, with an O/A ratio of 1:2 and a temperature of 20±5°C. Subsequent re-extraction of copper from the extract is carried out by mixing the extract with a sulfuric acid solution and separating the mixture by settling to obtain a copper-containing re-extraction and an extractant solution. The re-extract is purified from impurities, and copper is extracted electrically from the purified re-extract to obtain cathode copper and waste electrolyte. A method for calculating the technical and economic choice of an extraction apparatus has also been developed.

Долинный рельеф Северо-Восточной части Земли Киммерия на Марсе
Authors: Мухамеджанова А. Э.
Published: September 2024

Выполнено исследование долинного рельефа северо-восточной части Земли Киммерия на Марсе. Результаты исследования позволяют сделать следующие выводы. 1) Морфология изученных долинных систем соответствует их предполагаемому флювиальному происхождению. 2) Остатки палеодельты в кратере Гусев, фрагменты прослеживаемых по долине террасовых уровней, регулярные изменения их высоты, а также остатки эродированных аккумулятивных тел, обнаруженные в долине Ма’адим указывают на существование отдельных эпизодов частичного заполнения долин наносами, вероятно, за счет активизации самых верхних звеньев долинной сети, поставлявших обломочный материал в главную долину. Детальное изучение морфологии и топографии долины Дуриус позволяет предположить такой же механизм и ее формирования.
Радиолиз как возможный механизм синтеза перхлоратов на Марсе и Европе
Authors: Белоусов Д. В. , Чепцов В. С. , Павлов А. К.
Published: September 2024

Перхлораты обнаружены в составе реголита Марса и Луны, во льду Европы, в составе метеоритов. Понимание процессов образования и разрушения данных соединений важно как для понимания геологической и климатической эволюции ряда планет и тел Солнечной системы, так и для оценки возможности их обитаемости. К настоящему времени предложен ряд механизмов синтеза перхлоратов в условиях Марса, однако эти механизмы не объясняют наблюдаемых в реголите концентраций перхлората и неприменимы для безатмосферных тел, в частности Европы. Нами исследованы процессы синтеза и разрушения перхлоратов при облучении моделей льда и реголита высокоэнергичными электронами в условиях низкой температуры (–50°C) и при отсутствии атмосферы (при давлении 0.01 мбар). Полученные данные свидетельствуют о том, что перхлораты могут эффективно синтезироваться в реголите Марса и поверхностном слое льда Европы под действием облучения при отсутствии жидкой фазы или атмосферы.

В эксперименте получены плазменно-пылевые облака из вещества метеорита Царев, имитатора лунного реголита LMS-1D и ильменитового концентрата с помощью микроволнового разряда в порошковых средах. Для каждого из образцов зарегистрирована динамика развития разряда и образования плазменно-пылевого облака с последующей релаксацией после окончания микроволнового импульса. По спектрам излучения плазмы и поверхности твердого тела определены температуры газа, электронов и поверхности. Проведенное сравнение фазового и элементного состава исходных образцов и образцов после воздействия плазмы показало, что существенного изменения состава не происходит. Однако результаты сканирующей электронной микроскопии четко указывают на сфероидизацию исходных угловатых частиц и частиц неправильной формы. Также наблюдается появление сферических частиц, размеры которых больше, чем линейные размеры частиц в исходном образце. Полученные результаты указывают на возможность использования таких экспериментов для исследования химических и плазмохимических процессов синтеза и модификации веществ в условиях плазменно-пылевых облаков, встречающихся в космических явлениях.

Published: September 2024

Рассматривается возможность захвата и выброса космических масс в рамках плоской гиперболической задачи трех тел, а также в рамках плоской параболической задачи трех тел. Предлагается математическая модель, которая позволяет объяснить образование несферических спутников планет, подобных марсианским спутникам Фобосу и Деймосу, за счет перехвата или обмена космическими массами, а также позволяет понять, почему отсутствует космический мусор внеземного происхождения в околоземном и окололунном пространстве. Изучается эффект накопления искусственного мусора в системе Земля–Луна. Настоящее исследование базируется на численном и аналитическом анализе некоторых схем классификации Шази финальных движений в задаче трех тел. Рассмотрена краевая задача трех тел, показана возможность существования решения этой задачи и получены условия финальной гиперболо-эллиптичности движения. Аналитические результаты проиллюстрированы численным моделированием.
Gaia Data Release 3: распределение спектральных групп астероидов, сближающихся с Землей
Authors: Щербина М. П. , Ковалёва Д. А. , Шустов Б. М.
Published: September 2024

На основе данных третьего выпуска каталога КА Gaia, содержащих спектры отражения астероидов, были проведены исследования астероидов, сближающихся с Землей (АСЗ). Спектры отражения около 100 представителей групп Атона, Аполлона и Амура были использованы для определения их спектрального класса. Для 47 астероидов такая оценка была сделана впервые. Для удобства классы были сгруппированы в более широкие спектральные группы (по Толену). Распределение по спектральным группам (в среднем 60% S-группа, 20% C-группа, 20% другие) соответствует результатам, полученным ранее с использованием других данных по большей выборке объектов. Такое распределение остается похожим на то, что известно для АСЗ разных размеров. Несмотря на численное преобладание в выборке АСЗ астероидов группы S, астероиды примитивных типов (группы С) обнаруживаются и на очень малых перигелийных расстояниях, что косвенно может подтверждать массовость явления сублимационной активности астероидов.

Shift of US Military Spending to Allies: Intensions and Realities
Authors: Anureev Sergey V.
Published: September 2024

The United States supports military operations in Ukraine and confronts with China, pressure allies to raise military spending to 2% of GDP, and at the same time announces a medium-term reduction of military spending in real terms. So, the US is trying to curb the huge budget deficit and public debt, "sell" more security and weapons to its allies, and avoid the degradation of its military producers. American options for reducing military spending have little budget effect, the allies can’t significantly increase military spending and purchase of American weapons due to large public debt and the interests of their military industry. America's cut-and-shift military finance will realize only under ideal conditions, although with the juggling of facts and figures they seem realistic.
