The distribution of energy release (linear energy loss) over depth was calculated when bombarded with deuterium atoms of a tungsten target in a wide energy range of incident particles of 100 eV - 10 MeV. It is shown that in the energy range up to 100 keV, the maximum energy release, contrary to the prevailing ideas, is near the surface of a solid. At energies above 100 keV, the nature of the distribution changes and the Bragg maximum appears near the point where the particle stops. The distribution of the energy release over depth in tungsten is obtained for conditions typical of the ITER tokamak reactor, which makes it possible to estimate the wall heating during bombardment by plasma atoms.

Abstract. It has been found at measurements on alternating current that the loop of a thermal hysteresis of semiconductor–metal phase transition in vanadium dioxide VO2 has the asymmetrical multistage form. On a direct current the complex shape of a hysteresis loop wasn't shown. Such behavior for VO2 films can be defined by heterophase nanocrystal structure of vanadium oxide and different type of charge carriers in grains volume and surfaces. The phenomenon is connected with consecutive phase transition in groups of nanocrystallites of the close size. In such films electrical switching with the "tristate" mode for the first time is revealed.

Due to the increasing number of interested investors in the rights of options, it is necessary to highlight this section of the financial markets, and that one of the main reasons for increasing the attractiveness of investors in this type of market is the reduction of capital required to invest in it, and contribute to maximize their profitability if true (Investors 'profits are unlimited) and reduce their losses to a certain extent (investors know in advance the amount of their losses before the turnout of investment) if their expectations are unhealthy. Investors' losses are determined by the amount of the bonus they pay to the contract editor, After the pricing of the contracts of the rights of the purchase choice, they will be certain of the size of the losses they will incur if their expectations for the future are incorrect, and many techniques of technical analysis help investors to predict the future prices of securities or financial indicators. In the research is the relative strength index, and through this indicator, investors can determine whether the prices in the stock market sold at high or low prices, contributing to the impact on the value of the index of the stock market, so the prospect of the future helps investors In making their investment decisions to buy buying rights in the event of higher prices in the future. Conversely, the expectation of lower prices in the future investors are selling purchase rights rights contracts, and thus achieve profits in both cases.Keywords: Black & Schulz model, RSI, financial choice, pricing of purchase choice.

Background and objectives

Oral sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (formerly ZS-9) binds and removes potassium via the gastrointestinal tract. Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate–associated restoration and maintenance of normokalemia and adverse events were evaluated in a two-part, open label, phase 3 trial.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

In the correction phase, adult outpatients with plasma potassium ≥5.1 mmol/L (i-STAT Point-of-Care) received sodium zirconium cyclosilicate 10 g three times daily for 24–72 hours until normokalemic (potassium =3.5–5.0 mmol/L). Qualifying participants entered the ≤12-month maintenance phase and received sodium zirconium cyclosilicate 5 g once daily titrated to maintain normokalemia without dietary or medication restrictions. Prespecified primary end points were restoration of normal serum potassium values (3.5–5.0 mmol/L) during the correction phase and maintenance of serum potassium ≤5.1 mmol/L during the maintenance phase. Adverse events were assessed throughout.

Results

Of 751 participants, 746 (99%) achieved normokalemia during the correction phase (mean serum potassium =4.8 mmol/L; 95% confidence interval, 4.7 to 4.8) and entered the maintenance phase; 466 (63%) participants completed the 12-month trial. Participants were predominantly white, men, and age ≥65 years old; 74% had an eGFR<60 ml/min per 1.73 m2, and 65% used renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors. Mean time on sodium zirconium cyclosilicate was 286 days. Mean daily sodium zirconium cyclosilicate dose was 7.2 g (SD=2.6). Over months 3–12, mean serum potassium was 4.7 mmol/L (95% confidence interval, 4.6 to 4.7); mean serum potassium values ≤5.1 and ≤5.5 mmol/L were achieved by 88% and 99% of participants, respectively. Of 483 renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor users at baseline, 87% continued or had their dose increased; 11% discontinued. Among 263 renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor–naïve participants, 14% initiated renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor therapy. Overall, 489 (66%) participants experienced adverse events during the maintenance phase, and 22% experienced a serious adverse event. Of eight (1%) deaths, none were considered related to sodium zirconium cyclosilicate. Nine (1%) and 34 (5%) participants experienced serum potassium <3.0 and 3.0–3.4 mmol/L, respectively.

Conclusions

After achieving normokalemia, individualized once daily sodium zirconium cyclosilicate was associated with maintenance of normokalemia without substantial renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor changes for ≤12 months.

A questão da venalidade é pouco conhecida para o território da América portuguesa no período da união de coroas ibéricas, entre 1580 e 1640. Novos documentos, encontrados em arquivos na Espanha, como o Arquivo General de Simancas e a Biblioteca Nacional de Madri, oferecem interessantes informações sobre as tentativas de reforma durante o reinado de Filipe III (II de Portugal), a compra-venda de cargos, as formas de provimento dos ofícios e as suspeitas de “corruptelas” nas práticas dos oficiais régios.
Fault-tolerant magic state preparation with flag qubits
Authors: Chamberland Christopher , Cross Andrew W.
Published: May 2019

Magic state distillation is one of the leading candidates for implementing universal fault-tolerant logical gates. However, the distillation circuits themselves are not fault-tolerant, so there is additional cost to first implement encoded Clifford gates with negligible error. In this paper we present a scheme to fault-tolerantly and directly prepare magic states using flag qubits. One of these schemes requires only three ancilla qubits, even with noisy Clifford gates. We compare the physical qubit and gate cost of our scheme to the magic state distillation protocol of Meier, Eastin, and Knill (MEK), which is efficient and uses a small stabilizer circuit. For low enough noise rates, we show that in some regimes the overhead can be improved by several orders of magnitude compared to the MEK scheme which uses Clifford operations encoded in the codes considered in this work.
The Short Path Algorithm Applied to a Toy Model
Authors: Hastings M. B.
Published: May 2019

We numerically investigate the performance of the short path optimization algorithm on a toy problem, with the potential chosen to depend only on the total Hamming weight to allow simulation of larger systems. We consider classes of potentials with multiple minima which cause the adiabatic algorithm to experience difficulties with small gaps. The numerical investigation allows us to consider a broader range of parameters than was studied in previous rigorous work on the short path algorithm, and to show that the algorithm can continue to lead to speedups for more general objective functions than those considered before. We find in many cases a polynomial speedup over Grover search. We present a heuristic analytic treatment of choices of these parameters and of scaling of phase transitions in this model.
Auditor Response to Negative Media Coverage of Client Environmental, Social, and Governance Practices
Authors: Burke Jenna J. , Hoitash Rani , Hoitash Udi
Published: May 2019

SYNOPSIS

We use new data to examine auditor response to negative media coverage of client environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices. This coverage can be indicative of an increased risk of material misstatement, which is an important assessment in client retention and pricing decisions. Specifically, media criticism can threaten a client's financial condition, as well as reveal management effectiveness and integrity issues that are further compounded by negative attention and related financial problems. We therefore predict that auditors will notice and incorporate media-provided ESG information in their risk response, which has not been examined by prior research. Supporting this prediction, we find that ESG-related negative media coverage of an audit client is associated with a higher likelihood of auditor resignation and increased audit fees. This response is incremental to the issues that underlie this media coverage. Overall, these findings identify an additional economic incentive for companies to avoid poor ESG practices.

¿Enfoque de competencias o enfoque de capacidades en la escuela?
Authors: Silva Carreño Wilmer Hernando , Mazuera Moreno Johanna Andrea
Published: May 2019

Las competencias han sido asunto de varios debates en el escenario pedagógico, especialmente por el fin que se le atribuye. En la última década, frente a éste ha emergido una mirada distinta desde el enfoque de las capacidades y del desarrollo humano. En este artículo se busca, por una parte, cuestionar el sentido del enfoque de las competencias en la educación y, por otra, mostrar el enfoque de las capacidades como posibilidad para sedimentar una mirada humanista y alterna de la formación. Por esto, tomando el arco hermenéutico como enfoque metodológico, concretamente desde los procesos de “explicar” y “comprender” desarrollados por Ricoeur, se caracteriza una conceptualización crítica de las competencias para mostrar que la persona, más que un sujeto competente es un sujeto de capacidades. Los resultados apuntan a que un proyecto de formación que procure el desarrollo humano tiene un fuerte sustrato en el despliegue de la persona como sujeto-agente de capacidades.

Authors: Salim Emil , Afritunando Yogi , Febriana Nindi Antika , Efdi Mai
Published: May 2019

This study aims to determine antioxidant activity and total phenolic content of mangosteen leaves in several different solvents. The antioxidant activity test of the extract was determined by the DPPH method and the total phenolic content was determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu method. The phytochemical test of mangosteen leaves showed the presence of phenolic compounds, saponins, triterpenoids and alkaloids. The extraction results increase with increasing water content in methanol, ethanol and acetone. The highest amount of extract was obtained using 50% acetone solvent (34.98 Â± 0.17%). Extraction using 100% ethanol showed the highest total phenolic content (614.25 Â± 5.58 mg GAE / g extract) and the lowest IC50 value (5.81 mg / L). The results of this study indicate that the use of 50% acetone solvent can optimize the amount of extract and 100% ethanol can optimize the content of total phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of mangosteen leaves.

When Ecclesiastical Unity is Pursued but not Realised: Synodical Independency and Denominational Pluralism Within the Church of Central Africa Presbyterian (CCAP)
Authors: Munyenyembe Rhodian , Hofmeyr Johannes Wynand
Published: May 2019

The aim of this article is to appreciate the fact that though the Church of Central Africa Presbyterian (CCAP) is taken to be one denomination, the independence of the synods has made it to appear as if there are actually five denominations. By tracing the similarities and differences of the synods from their genesis it becomes quite clear that diversity outweighs unity in the CCAP. From a theological point of view we see that some of the differences are there because of different theological emphases, especially due to traditions of the mother churches that gave birth to the synods. Regarding political issues, it has been seen that the geographical and cultural contexts in which the synods are situated do contribute to the synodsâ€™ perspectives on pertinent issues, as they cannot be taken to be operating in a vacuum. These observations therefore underscore the fact that the five synodsâ€™ unity under the General Assembly is that of a loose federation rather than an organic one.
A Church as Kalafong: Ecclesiology According to Gabriel Molehe Setiloane
Authors: Masoga Mogomme Alpheus
Published: May 2019

The interest of this article focuses on Gabriel Molehe Setiloaneâ€™s views about the ecclesiological make-up in the context of African theology. This focus is relevant as it has been argued that Setiloane pushed for the importance of African theological discourse (Masoga 2012a). Some of the sensitive but also critical expressions by Setiloane include statements such as Motho ke Modimo, which is translated into English as â€œa human being is God/Divineâ€. It has been Setiloaneâ€™s theological interest to develop what he called the â€œAfrican Divinity discourseâ€, encompassing areas of life such as: ethics and morality in secular contexts; family life; civil authority; â€œriches and povertiesâ€; the land question; crime; leadership styles; the functioning of the corporate sector in terms of ubuntu; and bio-centric ethics. This article aims to introduce Setiloaneâ€™s voice on the idea of the church. For this purpose, it was decided that the two terms, â€œchurchâ€ and â€œecclesiologyâ€ would be used to drive the theoretical framework and practice perspectives, both of which will become clearer in the primary data used in this article. For Setiloane, his calling as a pastor, and the church in which he was called to, had much to do with kalafo (African healing) and bongaka (a Motswana initiated healer). In this case, congregants were balwetsi (patients) looking to the ngaka (traditional healer) of their malwetsi (diseases). I had the privilege to have been entrusted with unpublished articles by the late Setiloane before he passed away, as well as the honour of holding formal and informal interviews with him. This research article made use of the Thematic Content Analysis (TCA) approach to broach the recorded data in the form of formal interviews, informal discussions, stories, and statements.
Moratorium to Preserve Cultures: A Challenge to the Apostolic Faith Mission Church in Zimbabwe?
Authors: Matikiti Robert
Published: May 2019

This historical study will demonstrate that each age constructs an image of Jesus out of the cultural hopes, aspirations, biblical and doctrinal interfaces that make Christ accessible and relevant. From the earliest times, the missionaries and the church were of the opinion that Africans had no religion and culture. Any religious practice which they came across among the Africans was regarded as heathen practice which had to be eradicated. While references to other Pentecostal denominations will be made, this paper will focus on the first Pentecostal church in Zimbabwe, namely the Apostolic Faith Mission (AFM). Scholars are not agreed on the origins of Pentecostalism. However, there is a general consensus among scholars that the movement originated around 1906 and was first given national and international impetus at Azusa Street in North America. William J. Seymourâ€™s Azusa Street revival formed the most prominent and significant centre of Pentecostalism, which was predominantly black and had its leadership rooted in the African culture of the nineteenth century. Despite this cultural link, when Pentecostalism arrived in Zimbabwe from 1915 onwards, it disregarded African culture. It must be noted that in preaching the gospel message, missionaries have not been entirely without fault. This has resulted in many charging missionaries with destroying indigenous cultures and helping to exploit native populations for the benefit of the West. The main challenge is not that missionaries are changing cultures, but that they are failing to adapt the Christocentric gospel to different cultures. Often the gospel has been transported garbed in the paraphernalia of Western culture. This paper will argue that there is a need for Pentecostal churches to embrace good cultural practices in Zimbabwe.
Hermeneutics of Re-enacting Biblical Text(s) and Concept(s) in the History of Prophetism in Ghana’s Christianity: A Case Study of the Ministry of Agabus and Prophet Bernard Opoku Nsiah
Authors: Aryeh Daniel Nii Aboagye
Published: May 2019

Biblical hermeneutics is significant in delineating the meaning of scripture text(s) for contemporary audiences. The critical historical method as well as its derivative criticisms is the widely used approach to understand what the text meant for the “original” audience in its sitz im leben. It is socio-historical in nature and curbs religious fundamentalism. However, its concentration on history does not make it suitable for prophetic ministries in Ghana. The approach to scripture interpretation by prophetic ministries since 1914 has been re-enactment of favourite scripture text(s) to have instructions for life in the present situation and the future. They believe that being biblical is the patterning of life style or activities along some popular characters in the Bible. Prophet Bernard Opoku Nsiah claims that his prophetic ministry is patterned or is a replica of the prophetic ministry of Agabus in the book of Acts. This essay examines biblical interpretation in the history of prophetism in Ghana’s
Women Flying with God: Allan Boesak’s Contribution to the Liberation of Women of Faith in South Africa
Authors: Landman Christina
Published: May 2019

In 2005 Allan Boesak published a book entitled Die Vlug van Gods Verbeelding (“The Flight of God’s Imagination”1). It contains six Bible studies on women in the Bible, who are Hagar, Tamar, Rizpah, the Syrophoenician woman, the Samaritan woman as well as Martha and Mary, the sisters of Lazarus. This article argues that women of faith in South Africa have, throughout the ages, in religious literature been stylised according to six depictions, and that Boesak has, in the said book, undermined these enslaving depictions skilfully. The six historical presentations deconstructed by Boesak through the Bible studies are the following: 1) Women are worthy only in their usefulness to church and family without agency of their own; 2) A good woman is submissive on all levels, privately and publicly; 3) Women should sacrifice themselves to the mission of the church, without acknowledgment that they themselves are victims of patriarchy; 4) A good white woman is one that is loyal to the nation and to her husband while black women are to reject their cultures; 5) Women’s piety is restricted to dealing with their personal sins, while they are not to express their piety in public; 6) Women are forbidden by the Bible to participate in ordained religion. After references to these discourses in Christian literature of the past 200 years, the contents of Boesak’s Bible studies will be analysed to determine how—and how far—he has moved from these traditional views of women of faith. Finally the research findings will be summarised in a conclusion.

Skala kematangan karir dirancang untuk mengumpulkan data penelitian tentang tingkat kematangan karir pada siswa SMA. Skala tersebut terdiri dari 12 item pernyataan yang disesuaikan dengan konstruk kematangan karir, yakni: kepercayaan diri dalam karir (KDK), ketidakpastian pilihan karir (KPK), dan pengetahuan terhadap karir (PTK). Hasil analisis faktor konfirmatori mengindikasikan tiga konstruk model cocok (p-vales= 0.50; RMSEA= 0.00; NFI= 0.99; CFI=1.00; GFI=0.99; AGFI=0.98). Selanjutnya, 7 dari 12 item pernyataan skala kematangan karir terbukti valid (stadardized loading berkisar antara 0.52 hingga 0.72; t-values berkisar antara 8.08 hingga 12.25) dan dua dari tiga konstruk skala kematangan karir reliabel (KPK=0.68; PTK=0.70). Hal tersebut menunjukan bahwa skala kematangan karir masih dapat digunakan sebagai instrumen pengumpul data dan alat asesmen.The purpose of this article is to evaluate the validity and reliability of the career maturity scale. The career maturity scale is designed to collect research data on the level of career maturity in high school students. It is consists of 12 statement items tailored to the constructs of career maturity: career confidence, uncertainty of career choice, and career knowledge. The results of confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the three constructs of model was well fit (p-vales= 0.50; RMSEA= 0.00; NFI= 0.99; CFI=1.00; GFI=0.99; AGFI=0.98). Further, seven out of 12 statement items on career maturity scale proved valid (standardized loading ranged from 0.52 to 0.72; t-values ranged from 8.08 to 12.25) and two of the three constructs of career maturity scale are reliable (KPK=0.68; PTK=0.70). This shows that the scale of career maturity can still be used as an instrument for data collection and assessment tools.

The Principle of Conservation of Structural Aspect: Facilitating Visual Communication and Learning in Organic Chemistry Instruction
Authors: andraos john
Published: May 2019

An effective pedagogical method is presented for the visual communication of chemical reactions learned in organic chemistry undergraduate courses. The basis for the method is the preservation of the visual aspect of reactant and product structures so that the tracking of cleaved and formed chemical bonds is made self-evident. This consequently leads to improved clarity of presentation and a better understanding and grasp of proposed reaction mechanisms to explain product outcomes. The method is demonstrated for a variety of individual reaction types and synthesis plans. Various visual training exercises are also presented using ChemDraw Ultra 7.0 software and literature table of contents (TOC) graphics appearing in journal articles.
The Effect of Ions on the Optical Absorption Spectra of Aqueously Solvated Chromophores
Authors: Soni Sapana , Zuehlsdorff Tim J. , Servis Michael J. , Isborn Christine , Clark Aurora
Published: May 2019

In the condensed phase, ions often create heterogeneous local environments around a solute, which may impart chemical reactivity or perturbations to physico-chemical properties. Although the former has been the subject of some study, the latter - particularly as is pertains to optical absorption spectroscopy - is much less understood. In this work, the computed UV-Vis absorption spectrum is examined for the aqueously solvated chromophore anion of green fluorescent protein for different local ion configurations. The strong ability of water to screen the ions from the chromophore results in little change in excitation energy compared to a purely aqueous environment. However, upon forming a contact ion pair with a sodium ion at either of the two electronegative oxygen sites of the chromophore, there is a spectral shift to either higher or lower energies. Surprisingly, our analysis suggests that the cause of the spectral shift is dominated not by the electrostatic presence of the ion, but instead by ion disruption of the hydrogen bond network at the oxygen contact ion pair site.

International Cooperation requires an assessment of Development Education as a guide to understanding, evaluating and making decisions that improve the efficacy and impact of its actions. This study focuses on demonstrating how a tool that is used in formal education can also be used to assess Development Education and Global Citizenship Education (DEGCE).Through a descriptive analysis, we compared DEGCE with the social and citizenship competences assessed in the Spanish region of Andalusia. We found a strong relationship between them in terms of content, teaching-learning method, and evaluative approaches. This implies that the diagnosis of social and citizenship competences not only serves as a model, or example, for DEGCE assessment, but it also provides relevant and useful information to evaluate its present state.
Precarization linked to environmental risk: review of the case La Loma in Cartagena de Indias (Colombia)
Authors: González-Güeto Joy Helena
Published: May 2019

This article aims to deepen the debate around the precarization and marginalization experience of impoverished social groups in the Colombian Caribbean, associating these two categories of analysis to the risk of environmental disasters. Here we present a concrete experience of marginality linked to environmental risk, the case of La Loma in Cartagena, located on the highest hill of the city (La Popa) and designated by the authorities as «high risk area». The case was reviewed through the application of a preliminary survey, five semi-structured interviews to collect the stories of the villagers and a detailed examination of the official correspondence between Government institutions and community leaders. The results obtained allow us to affirm that the «environmental risk» is, for the authorities, a) the discursive framework that justifies interventions towards the eviction, but also b) the point of convergence of community identities linked to the territory. To situate the above, a specific experience of marginality linked to environmental risk, La Loma’s case, identified by the authorities of Cartagena as «high-risk landslide zone», located in the highest hill of the city, La Popa, will be reviewed.
Good Living Goals An alternative proposal to the Sustainable Development Goals
Authors: Hidalgo-Capitán Antonio Luis , García-Álvarez Santiago , Cubillo-Guevara Ana Patricia , Medina-Carranco Nancy
Published: May 2019

In this article we make a deconstruction of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through différance technique, to identify the main inconsistencies of the SDGs with respect to their purpose of contributing to the improvement of the well-being of humanity, from the perspective of transmodern trans-development. We understand this concept as that way of life that allows human beings to coexist in harmony with other beings of nature, with other human beings and with ourselves. From this analysis, we concluded that the development implicit in the SDGs is really a model of unsustainable maldevelopment, based on coloniality-patriarchality-heteronormality of power-knowing-being, on capitalism and on anthropocentrism. And that has as consequences a global apartheid and an imperial way of life.
Later, we propose that, if the concept of good living emerged as an alternative to the concept of sustainable development, in the face of the international cooperation agenda of the SDGs, we can also make an alternative global agenda based on the Good Living Goals (GLGs). Thus, based on a normative research, from two discussion groups and a survey of experts, this section includes a proposal for GLGs, articulated in 3 general goals and 21 specific goals. All these goals would be aimed at achieving the three harmonies that should characterize global good living: biocentric sustainability, which would reflect harmony with all beings of nature; social equity, which would reflect harmony with all human beings; and personal satisfaction, which would reflect harmony with oneself.
