From isolation to cross-cultural collaboration: My international PhD journey as tauiwi
Authors: Dencer-Brown Amrit Melissa 
Published: September 2020

This reflective piece is about my journey as an international PhD candidate from the UK to Aotearoa (New Zealand). I speak about my search to try and find a sense of belonging as an outsider and some of the challenges in doing community-focused research as an early career researcher from elsewhere. This piece includes key challenges of building networks, collaboration and overcoming the death of my father, half-way through my PhD. I speak about a toolkit of strength and resilience I had to create and now use in the support of my students and peers as a lecturer in education during the pandemic. This piece is about finding kindness and compassion in myself and receiving it from others to help with isolation in difficult times.

PENDIDIKAN KARAKTER DALAM PERSPEKTIF AL QUR’AN
Authors: Burhanuddin Hamam 
Published: September 2020

Character education consists of two words namely education and character. The meaning of character education according to Islam is a conscious effort made by educators to students to shape the personality of students who teach and shape morals, ethics, and a good sense of culture and noble character that foster students' ability to make good and bad decisions and realize goodness that in everyday life by means of education, teaching, guidance and training which is guided by the Qur’an and as-Sunna.
The basis of character education in Islam is the Qur’an the character of the Prophet Muhammad. Character education is very important at this time because character will show who we really are, character will determine how someone makes decisions, character determines attitudes, words, and actions of someone, people who have good character, then the words and deeds will also be good, so all it will become a unified identity and personalize itself, making it easy to distinguish from other identities.
The purpose of character education is to form a person of noble character because the noble character is the base of goodness. People of good character will soon leave goodness and leave badness. Implementation of character education in Islamic educational institutions varies greatly depending on the policies of these educational institutions.

Using Machine Learning to Find Ghostly Damped Lyα Systems in the SDSS DR14
Authors: Fathivavsari Hassan 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
We report the discovery of 59 new ghostly absorbers from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 14. These absorbers, with z
abs ∼ z
QSO, reveal no Lyα absorption, and they are mainly identified through the detection of strong metal absorption lines in the spectra. The number of such previously known systems is 30. The new systems are found with the aid of machine-learning algorithms. The spectra of 41 (out of total of 89) absorbers also cover the Lyβ spectral region. By fitting the damping wings of the Lyβ absorption in the stacked spectrum of 21 (out of 41) absorbers with relatively stronger Lyβ absorption, we measured an H i column density of log N(H i) = 21.50. This column density is 0.5 dex higher than that of the previous work. We also found that the metal absorption lines in the stacked spectrum of the 21 ghostly absorbers with stronger Lyβ absorption have similar properties as those in the stacked spectrum of the remaining systems. This circumstantial evidence strongly suggests that the majority of our ghostly absorbers are indeed DLAs.
An Alternative Interpretation of Impulsive SEP Events Occurring on 1999 January 9–10
Authors: Tan Lun C. 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
We have examined two impulsive solar energetic particle events that occurred on 1999 January 9–10 (earlier event A and later event B). Both events showed earlier velocity dispersion and later intensity dropout of ions. In particular, in event A, the dropout repeated five times. Through the onset time analysis of solar particles, we find that only at higher energies (>0.2 MeV nucleon−1 for heavy ions and >2.8 keV for electrons) can the analysis provide a consistent path length of ions and electrons. The path length in event A is larger than that in event B. In contrast, at lower energies, the analysis fails to predict the distribution of first arrival of solar particles. The divergence between observation and prediction would increase if the interplanetary scattering of ions were taken into account. We then focus on the lower-energy region, where a negative correlation of ion intensities with plasma β is displayed. We have found that the repeated dropout of ions can be caused by the magnetic reconnection acceleration in the solar wind. In addition, we have discovered an isolated proton dropout event in which a sharply anisotropic pitch-angle distribution of low-energy electrons is also seen. Our observation is consistent with the prediction of Tautz et al. that a minimum power spectral density component parallel to the magnetic field can reduce the magnetic mirroring effect, preventing electron scattering through 90°.
Tests of AGN Feedback Kernels in Simulated Galaxy Clusters

Published: September 2020

Abstract
In cool-core galaxy clusters with central cooling times much shorter than a Hubble time, condensation of the ambient central gas is regulated by a heating mechanism, probably an active galactic nucleus. Previous analytical work has suggested that certain radial distributions of heat input may result in convergence to a quasi-steady global state that does not substantively change on the timescale for radiative cooling, even if the heating and cooling are not locally in balance. To test this hypothesis, we simulate idealized galaxy cluster halos using the ENZO code with an idealized, spherically symmetric heat input kernel intended to emulate. Thermal energy is distributed with radius according to a range of kernels, in which total heating is updated to match total cooling every 10 Myr. Some heating kernels can maintain quasi-steady global configurations, but no kernel we tested produces a quasi-steady state with central entropy as low as those observed in cool-core clusters. The general behavior of the simulations depends on the proportion of heating in the inner 10 kpc, with low central heating leading to central cooling catastrophes, high central heating creating a central convective zone with an inverted entropy gradient, and intermediate central heating resulting in a flat central entropy profile that exceeds observations. The timescale on which our simulated halos fall into an unsteady multiphase state is proportional to the square of the cooling time of the lowest-entropy gas, allowing more centrally concentrated heating to maintain a longer-lasting steady state.
Detection of the Occultation of 55 Cancri e with TESS

Published: September 2020

Abstract
55 Cancri e is an ultra-short period transiting Super-Earth observed by TESS in Sector 21. Using this photometry, we measure the occultation depth in the TESS bandpass, leveraging the precise transit light curve and comparing multiple detrending methods. We measure the occultation depth to be (15.0 ± 4.8) ppm—a staggeringly small change in brightness, yet one detected by TESS in just a single sector of data. This implies a brightness temperature of

K, which is around 1.5σ greater than expected given the mean depth measured with Spitzer. This is not a formally significant difference, and may be accounted for by the known variability, or by an albedo of ∼0.5. In any case, future TESS observations of this system will provide an exciting opportunity to further study this diminutive world’s atmosphere.

Published: September 2020

Background:
Contemporary management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) indicates the need for educational and self-care programs to address lifestyle factors.

Aims:
This study examined the clinical need and interest in programming for risk factor modification in AF patients residing in a mostly rural area.

Methods:
Participants with AF (n = 86) were recruited during university-based cardiac electrophysiology appointments and asked to complete a 10-min survey battery assessing a range of risk factors spanning physical activity, knowledge, ability, interest, and engagement, as well as psychologic function.

Results:
AF risk factor reports indicated broad potential need for AF programming with an average CHADS-VASC of 3.8, with approximately 67% reporting low physical activity, and 38% significant anxiety. Related to self-care topics, education on physical activity was the highest-rated program, but weight-loss programming was rated as the most likely to attend. Distance to the clinic was the most often cited barrier, 50% of sample.

Conclusions:
AF patients demonstrated a need and view educational programming in the realm of physical activity and weight-loss as desirable. Increased research is needed to determine format and duration of treatment deemed efficacious and able to overcome specific barriers such as distance to care.
The Role of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor and Serotonin Polymorphisms in Stress-Related Personality and Psychiatric Symptoms
Authors: Nestor Paul G. , Lapp Hannah E. , Boodai Sara B. , O'Donovan Keira , Hasler Victoria Choate , Hunter Richard 
Published: September 2020

Background: Diathesis-stress perspectives of cardiovascular (CV) health and disease have long identified the important role of a host of mental health risk and protective factors in both illness course and recovery. Few studies, however, have investigated these factors within the same sample of healthy people. Aims and Objectives: Accordingly, we focused on the inter-relationships among well-established CV mental health risk factors, specifically childhood adversity, stress-related adult personality traits and psychiatric symptoms, and naturally occurring genetic polymorphisms. Materials and Methods: Here 100 college students completed the NEO Five Factor Model of personality in conjunction with measures of childhood adversity, psychiatric symptoms as well as genetic variables derived from assays of the serotonin transporter (5-HTTLPR) and the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF).

Results:
Single gene comparisons pointed to lower CV risk, as reflected in personality and psychiatric symptom measures for BDNF Met versus Val/Val carriers. In addition, polygenic comparisons revealed a significant BDNF x 5-HTTLPR interactional effect, suggesting that this particular allelic combination may moderate the phenotypic expression of key personality traits, namely neuroticism and extraversion, as well as psychiatric symptoms, all linked to cardiovascular health. In fact, the data showed across personality and symptom measures, evidence of stress-resistance, resilience and protection for carriers of the allelic pair, BDNF Met and 5-HTTLPR-S. Conclusions: The findings suggested the Met variant of the BDNF gene had a risk-reducing and health-promoting effect when paired with the short serotonin allele, arguably reversing the commonly reported 5-HTTLPR-S association with stress vulnerability.

IMPLEMENTASI PENDEKATAN PEMBELAJARAN BERBASIS STUDENT CENTERED LEARNING
Authors: Bahrudin Febrian Alwan 
Published: September 2020

This research is about the Learning Implementation using The ‘Student Centered Learning’ Base in the Pancasila and Citizenship Education Department, the learning process activity can be divided into two types of approaches, such as the learning approach with ‘Teacher Centered Learning’ (TCL) base, and with the ‘Student Centered Learning’ (SCL) base. The approach of learning using the ‘Teacher Centered Learning’(TCL) base is an activity in which the lecturer becomes the main subject in the process of learning, and within the learning process using the ‘Teacher Centered Learning’ (TCL) the lecturer will be a lot more active than the students and thus have a much more important role in this method when it comes to giving the materials for learning. In the ‘Teacher Centered Learning’ (TCL) base method, students tend to be much less active in the learning process, whereas the ‘Student Centered Learning’ (SCL) is a method that gives the students the chance to be active in the process, or in this case, the students are now the main subject of the learning process. The approach of this research is based on qualitative approach and also using descriptive study method. The implementation of learning using the ‘Student Centered Learning’ (SCL) is done through several stages, beginning with planning, execution, and ends with evaluation. In the planning stage the lecturer prepares the administrative part of learning, in which includes making lesson plan, and preparing things that support the learning process, such as media, learning resources, or other innovations that supports learning. This stage of the learning process aims to determine the initial steps so that the learning process can run effectively and efficiently, the making of the lesson plan which positions the students to have a much more dominant role than lecturers is a form of learning using the ‘Student Centered Learning’ (SCL) method, in this stage the implementation of learning makes the students take more part in the learning process compared to lecturers, students are required to be active and creative in the learning process, in this activity the use of learning media is very helpful to be able to implement student centered learning. Student's active role can be applied through class presentations about the material being discussed, besides that the use of electronic-based learning or e-learning has been applied in the Department of Pancasila and Citizenship Education. The last stage is the closing stage where the usual thing to do is to reflect on the learning that has been done with the intent to evaluate so students and lecturers can determine learning improvements at the next meeting.

The aim of this research is to know how the implementation of civic competency that consist of civic knowledge, civic skill, and civic disposition. This research used qualitative features with descriptive methode, the result of this research shows that the implementation of civic education competency in order to face the globalization defiance can be happened by three steps. The first step is planning, in planning step, the civic education supporting lecturer made a study planner for every semester together that customized with regular requisite book from directorate general and student affairs of Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia. In arrangement of civic education learning in college has the competency that must accomplished by students and the implementation which in civic knowledge. Student got the knowledge from lecturer through the process teaching and learning in class about the materials that already made based on the study planner for each semester. After the first competency, next to the second one which is civic skill. For this compentency, students had given the activity that could build their critical thinking. Project citizen, one of the activity that given to students to reach their more knowledge potentions, especially their skill as student college. The last competency is civic disposition, this competency is the result of mixed two competencies; citizenship knowledge and citizenship skill. From citizenship character competency, in hopes that the students could get the knowledge and skill that shows a good personality based on Undang-Undang Dasar 1945, so they will not easily get contaminated by the negative impacts of globalization.
