AbstractEd Zigler was a champion for underprivileged youth, one who worked alongside communities to fight for long-lasting systemic changes that were informed by his lifespan and ecological perspective on the development of the whole child. This paper reports on the development, implementation, and preliminary outcomes of an intervention that embodied the Zigler approach by adopting a community participatory research lens to integrate complementary insights across community-based providers (promotoras), Latinx immigrant families, and developmental psychologists in the service of promoting parent–child relationship quality and preventing youth aggression and violence. Analyses from the first 112 Latinx mother–youth dyad participants (46% female children, ages 8–17) in the resultant, Confía en mí, Confío en ti, eight-week intervention revealed significant pre–post increases in purported mechanisms of change (i.e., attachment security, reflective functioning) and early intervention outcomes (i.e., depressive, anxiety, and externalizing problems). Treatment responses varied by youth age. A case analysis illustrated the lived experiences of the women and children served by this intervention. We discuss future directions for the program, as well as challenges to its sustainability. Finally, we consider Ed's legacy as we discuss the contributions of this work to developmental science and our understanding of attachment relationships among low-income immigrant Latinx families.

Tipu Sultan's female entourage under East India Company rule
Authors: HOWES JENNIFER 
Published: December 2020

AbstractAfter the Fourth Mysore War, when the British were dismantling Tipu Sultan's establishment, the East India Company unexpectedly took charge of 601 women who resided permanently inside Srirangapatnam Palace. Along with Tipu's sons, they were moved 200 miles east, to Vellore Fort, in the Company-controlled territory of Madras Presidency. Documentation about these court women held in colonial archives describes moments when they behaved in unexpectedly difficult ways. Because historians have traditionally cast the women of Tipu Sultan's court as voiceless victims, their actions, as described in these colonial sources, have been overlooked. When examined, the descriptions show that they were using the domestic powers granted to them under Tipu Sultan's establishment to influence their treatment by the East India Company. By placing these accounts alongside the broader context of the Company's military history, it becomes apparent that the women of Tipu Sultan's female entourage fomented the events that led to the Vellore Mutiny of 1806.
Radiation characteristics of microstrip antenna on frequency selective surface absorbing layer
Authors: Raj Ashish , Gupta Nisha 
Published: December 2020

AbstractThe radiation characteristics of the microstrip antenna (MSA) on the frequency selective surface (FSS) based absorbing layer is presented in this paper. It is observed that an absorbing layer placed between the MSA configuration and the ground plane helps in controlling the radiation characteristics of the antenna. It not only reduces the back lobe but also reduces the beamwidth and gain of the antenna simultaneously. This is because the absorbing layer absorbs some amount of power radiated by the antenna in both forward and backward directions. The proposed design is simulated using Ansys HFSS electromagnetic simulation software and the results are validated by comparing it with the results obtained from the equivalent circuit approach as well as experimental results. The effect of absorber on radiation characteristics of the radiator demonstrates its potential use in suppressing the radiation from the printed circuit board traces.
Confirmatory Factor Analysis of Implicit Beliefs Measure and the Role of Demographics among Pakistani Sample
Authors: Khan Maryam , Kamal Anila 
Published: December 2020

AbstractImplicit theories (also referred to self-theories) represent a cognitive conceptualization about a matter, generally raised as a belief. It is marked as the primary aspect of cognitive processing among living beings affecting their overall behavior towards others’. In the present study, it is attempted to consider a Pakistani perspective on this phenomenon of self-theories and also to validate the implicit theories Scale. It is a measure of people’s beliefs about things to be fixed or changeable. A quantitative approach of correlational methodology was employed. Participants of the study were 355 Pakistani young adults with an age range of 20–30 years (M= 23.08,SD= 1.99). There were 175 males and 180 females (as they reported their gender) from Islamabad. Confirmatory factor analysis was computed to assess the dimensionality of the scale. An adequate model fit indices were found as Root Mean Square Error of Approximation = .04, Comparative Fit Index = .99, Tucker-Lewis Index = .98, Goodness of Fit Index = .97, and Incremental Fit Index = .99,confirming a bidimensional implicit theories measure. The reliability coefficients of Entity Theory and Incremental Theory subscales were assessed through internal consistency and test-retest methods which are found to be in an acceptable range. Demographic specifications are also addressed to reflect upon the indigenous importance of this concept. This will be an additive feature in the literature to consider the cultural specification enabling individuals to align their mindsets in the desired direction of growth and achievement.
Effect of soil moisture regimes on the growth and fecundity of slender amaranth (Amaranthus viridis) and redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus)

Published: December 2020

AbstractSlender amaranth (Amaranthus viridisL.) and redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexusL.) are increasingly problematic weeds of summer crops in Australia. Water is considered the most limiting factor in an agroecosystem, and water stress adversely impacts the growth and reproduction of plant species. The primary objective of this study was to determine the growth and fecundity of two Australian biotypes (Goondiwindi and Gatton) ofA. viridisandA. retroflexusunder water-stress conditions. Four water-stress treatments (100%, 75%, 50%, and 25% field capacity [FC]) at a 4-d irrigation interval were chosen. No difference was observed for growth and seed production between the two biotypes of both species when grown under varying soil moisture regimes. At 100% FC,A. viridisproduced 44 g plant−1aboveground biomass and 1,740 seeds plant−1. The maximum growth (46 g plant−1) and seed production (3,070 seeds plant−1) ofA. retroflexuswere observed at 100% FC. The growth and seed production of both species were reduced with increased water-stress levels. Both weeds responded to water stress by decreasing the shoot:root biomass ratio. However,A. viridis(290 seeds plant−1) andA. retroflexus(370 seeds plant−1) were able to produce a significant number of seeds per plant even at 25% FC. Results suggest that both weeds will produce seeds under water-limiting conditions. Therefore, management strategies are required to minimize the growth and survival of weeds in water-deficit conditions.
Sydney Chapman: A Biographical Sketch Based on the Book “Chapman Eighty, From His Friends”
Authors: Akasofu Syun‐Ichi 
Published: December 2020

AbstractThis is a brief biographical sketch of Sydney Chapman, who was one of the greatest geophysicists in the world during the 20th century and also a pioneer in space physics. It is based on the book “Chapman eighty, from his friends,” together with a few notes by the author. In his early days, Chapman devoted his study on the transport property of gases and wrote “The Mathematical Theory of Non‐Uniform Gases” with T. G. Cowling. In the field of geophysics (geomagnetism, ionospheric physics, and auroral physics), Chapman made fundamental contributions in each field, on the basis of rigorous mathematical physics and deep insight. Chapman also wrote the book “Geomagnetism” with J. Bartels. These efforts helped establish the foundation of a new field, space physics. Chapman was instrumental and effective in coordinating various international scientific organizations, serving as presidents for the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG), the International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy (IAGA), and the International Geophysical Year (IGY). Present advance in geophysical sciences owes greatly his devotion and accomplishments.

Published: December 2020

AbstractThe resonant interaction of energetic particles with plasma waves, such as chorus and plasmaspheric hiss waves, plays a direct and crucial role in the acceleration and loss of radiation belt electrons that ultimately affect the dynamics of the radiation belts. In this study, we use the comprehensive wave data measurements made by the Electric and Magnetic Field Instrument Suite and Integrated Science instruments on board the two Van Allen probes, to develop multi‐parameter statistical chorus and plasmaspheric hiss wave models. The models of chorus and plasmaspheric hiss waves are presented as a function of combined geomagnetic activity (AE), solar wind velocity (V), and southward interplanetary magnetic field (Bs). The relatively smooth wave models reveal new features. Despite, the coupling between geomagnetic and solar wind parameters, the results show that each parameter still carries a sufficient amount of unique information to more accurately constrain the chorus and plasmaspheric hiss wave intensities. The new wave models presented here highlight the importance of multi‐parameter wave models, and can improve radiation belt modeling.
NWC Transmitter Effects on the Nightside Upper Ionosphere Observed by a Low‐Altitude Satellite
Authors: Němec F. , Pekař J. , Parrot M. 
Published: December 2020

AbstractNWC is an extremely powerful very low frequency (19.8 kHz) transmitter located in the north‐west Australia. Although the transmitter typically operates continuously, it was off during the second half of 2007. This allows for a direct comparison of an ionospheric situation at the times when the transmitter is on with the times when the transmitter is off. We use electromagnetic wave and plasma measurements performed by the Detection of Electro‐Magnetic Emissions Transmitted from Earthquake Regions spacecraft at an altitude of about 660 km. Given that the transmitter signal is significantly attenuated in lower ionospheric layers during the daytime and, moreover, the dayside ionosphere is controlled primarily by the solar radiation, concealing possible transmitter‐related effects, we focus exclusively on the nightside. We show that although the NWC transmitter signal does not significantly change the mean plasma density and only slightly increases the electron temperature, it causes significant perturbations of both these quantities at distances up to about 200 km. The wave intensity is considerably enhanced in the same spatial region close to the transmitter in a large range of frequencies above about 14 kHz. Finally, clear signatures of transmitter induced electron precipitation are detected to the east of the transmitter at somewhat larger L‐shells, consistent with a gyroresonance condition.

AbstractDirect laser writing (DLW) has been shown to render 3D polymeric optical components, including lenses, beam expanders, and mirrors, with submicrometer precision. However, these printed structures are limited to the refractive index and dispersive properties of the photopolymer. Here, we present the subsurface controllable refractive index via beam exposure (SCRIBE) method, a lithographic approach that enables the tuning of the refractive index over a range of greater than 0.3 by performing DLW inside photoresist-filled nanoporous silicon and silica scaffolds. Adjusting the laser exposure during printing enables 3D submicron control of the polymer infilling and thus the refractive index and chromatic dispersion. Combining SCRIBE’s unprecedented index range and 3D writing accuracy has realized the world’s smallest (15 µm diameter) spherical Luneburg lens operating at visible wavelengths. SCRIBE’s ability to tune the chromatic dispersion alongside the refractive index was leveraged to render achromatic doublets in a single printing step, eliminating the need for multiple photoresins and writing sequences. SCRIBE also has the potential to form multicomponent optics by cascading optical elements within a scaffold. As a demonstration, stacked focusing structures that generate photonic nanojets were fabricated inside porous silicon. Finally, an all-pass ring resonator was coupled to a subsurface 3D waveguide. The measured quality factor of 4600 at 1550 nm suggests the possibility of compact photonic systems with optical interconnects that traverse multiple planes. SCRIBE is uniquely suited for constructing such photonic integrated circuits due to its ability to integrate multiple optical components, including lenses and waveguides, without additional printed supports.

AbstractPathogenic FLNA variants can be identified in patients with seizures accompanied by periventricular nodular heterotopia (PVNH). It is unusual to find FLNA aberrations in epileptic patients without PVNH on brain imaging. We report a boy with cryptogenic West syndrome followed by refractory seizures and psychomotor delay. We performed whole-exome sequencing and identified a de novo missense variant in FLNA. It is noteworthy that this patient showed no PVNH. As no other pathogenic variants were found in epilepsy-related genes, this FLNA variant likely caused West syndrome but with no PVNH.

AbstractThe collective properties of self-assembled nanoparticles with long-range order bear immense potential for customized electronic materials by design. However, to mitigate the shortcoming of the finite-size distribution of nanoparticles and thus, the inherent energetic disorder within assemblies, atomically precise nanoclusters are the most promising building blocks. We report an easy and broadly applicable method for the controlled self-assembly of atomically precise Au32(nBu3P)12Cl8 nanoclusters into micro-crystals. This enables the determination of emergent optoelectronic properties which resulted from long-range order in such assemblies. Compared to the same nanoclusters in glassy, polycrystalline ensembles, we find a 100-fold increase in the electric conductivity and charge carrier mobility as well as additional optical transitions. We show that these effects are due to a vanishing energetic disorder and a drastically reduced activation energy to charge transport in the highly ordered assemblies. This first correlation of structure and electronic properties by comparing glassy and crystalline self-assembled superstructures of atomically precise gold nanoclusters paves the way towards functional materials with novel collective optoelectronic properties.

Published: December 2020

AbstractMicroRNAs (miRNAs) base-pair to messenger RNA targets and guide Argonaute proteins to mediate their silencing. This target regulation is considered crucial for animal physiology and development. However, this notion is based exclusively on studies in bilaterians, which comprise almost all lab model animals. To fill this phylogenetic gap, we characterize the functions of two Argonaute paralogs in the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis of the phylum Cnidaria, which is separated from bilaterians by ~600 million years. Using genetic manipulations, Argonaute-immunoprecipitations and high-throughput sequencing, we provide experimental evidence for the developmental importance of miRNAs in a non-bilaterian animal. Additionally, we uncover unexpected differential distribution of distinct miRNAs between the two Argonautes and the ability of one of them to load additional types of small RNAs. This enables us to postulate a novel model for evolution of miRNA precursors in sea anemones and their relatives, revealing alternative trajectories for metazoan miRNA evolution.
Switchable Rashba anisotropy in layered hybrid organic–inorganic perovskite by hybrid improper ferroelectricity

Published: December 2020

AbstractHybrid organic–inorganic perovskites (HOIPs) are introducing exotic directions in the photovoltaic materials landscape. The coexistence of inversion symmetry breaking and spin–orbit interactions play a key role in their optoelectronic properties. We perform a detailed study on a recently synthesized ferroelectric layered HOIP, (AMP)PbI4 (AMP = 4-aminomethyl-piperidinium). The calculated polarization and Rashba parameters are in excellent agreement with experimental values. Moreover, we report a striking effect, i.e., an extraordinarily large Rashba anisotropy that is tunable by ferroelectric polarization: as polarization is reversed, not only the spin texture chirality is inverted, but also the major and minor axes of the Rashba anisotropy ellipse in k-space are interchanged—a pseudo rotation. A k·p model Hamiltonian and symmetry-mode analysis reveal a quadrilinear coupling between the cation-rotation modes responsible for the Rashba ellipse pseudo-rotation, the framework rotation, and the polarization. These findings may provide different avenues for spin-optoelectronic devices such as spin valves or spin FETs.
