Constraints on the Circumnuclear Disk through Free–Free Absorption in the Nucleus of 3C 84 with KaVA and KVN at 43 and 86 GHz
Authors: Wajima Kiyoaki , Kino Motoki , Kawakatu Nozomu 
Published: May 2020

Abstract
The nearby bright radio galaxy 3C 84 at the center of the Perseus cluster is an ideal target to explore the jet in an active galactic nucleus and its parsec-scale environment. The recent research of Fujita & Nagai revealed the existence of the northern counter-jet component (N1) located 2 mas north from the central core in very long baseline interferometer (VLBI) images at 15 and 43 GHz and they are explained by the free–free absorption (FFA) due to an ionized plasma foreground. Here we report a new quasi-simultaneous observation of 3C 84 with the Korean VLBI Network (KVN) at 86 GHz and the KVN and VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry Array (KaVA) at 43 GHz in 2016 February. We succeeded the first detection of N1 at 86 GHz and the data show that N1 still has an inverted spectrum between 43 and 86 GHz with its spectral index α (

) of 1.19 ± 0.43, while the approaching lobe component has a steep spectrum with an index of −0.54 ± 0.30. Based on the measured flux asymmetry between the counter and approaching lobes, we constrain the averaged number density of the FFA foreground n
e as

. Those results suggest that the observational properties of the FFA foreground can be explained by the dense ionized gas in the circumnuclear disk and/or assembly of clumpy clouds at the central ∼1 pc region of 3C 84.

Abstract
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is performing a three-day cadence survey of the visible northern sky (∼3π) with newly found transient candidates announced via public alerts. The ZTF Bright Transient Survey (BTS) is a large spectroscopic campaign to complement the photometric survey. BTS endeavors to spectroscopically classify all extragalactic transients with m
peak ≤ 18.5 mag in either the g
ZTF or r
ZTF filters, and publicly announce said classifications. BTS discoveries are predominantly supernovae (SNe), making this the largest flux-limited SN survey to date. Here we present a catalog of 761 SNe, classified during the first nine months of ZTF (2018 April 1–2018 December 31). We report BTS SN redshifts from SN template matching and spectroscopic host-galaxy redshifts when available. We analyze the redshift completeness of local galaxy catalogs, the redshift completeness fraction (RCF; the ratio of SN host galaxies with known spectroscopic redshift prior to SN discovery to the total number of SN hosts). Of the 512 host galaxies with SNe Ia, 227 had previously known spectroscopic redshifts, yielding an RCF estimate of 44% ± 4%. The RCF decreases with increasing distance and decreasing galaxy luminosity (for z < 0.05, or ∼200 Mpc, RCF ≈ 0.6). Prospects for dramatically increasing the RCF are limited to new multifiber spectroscopic instruments or wide-field narrowband surveys. Existing galaxy redshift catalogs are only ∼50% complete at r ≈ 16.9 mag. Pushing this limit several magnitudes deeper will pay huge dividends when searching for electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational wave events or sources of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays or neutrinos.
A Magnetic White Dwarf Accretion Model for the Anomalous X-Ray Pulsar 4U 0142+61

Published: May 2020

Abstract
The quiescent emission of the anomalous X-ray pulsar (AXP) 4U 0142+61 extends over a broad range of energy, from radio up to hard X-rays. In particular, this object is unique among soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) and AXPs in presenting simultaneously mid-infrared emission and pulsed optical emission. In spite of the many propositions to explain this wide range of emission, it still lacks one that reproduces all of the observations. Filling this gap, we present a model to reproduce the quiescent spectral energy distribution of 4U 0142+61 from mid-infrared up to hard X-rays using plausible physical components and parameters. We propose that the persistent emission comes from a magnetic accreting white dwarf (WD) surrounded by a debris disk. This model assumes that (i) the hard X-rays are due to the bremsstrahlung emission from the postshock region of the accretion column, (ii) the soft X-rays are originated by hot spots on the WD surface, and (iii) the optical and infrared emissions are caused by an optically thick dusty disk, the WD photosphere, and the tail of the postshock region emission. In this scenario, the fitted model parameters indicate that 4U 0142+61 harbors a fast-rotator magnetic near-Chandrasekhar WD, which is very hot and hence young. Such a WD can be the recent outcome of a merger of two less massive WDs. In this case, 4U 0142+61 can evolve into a supernova Ia and hence give hints of the origin of these important astrophysical events. Additionally, we also present a new estimate of 4U 0142+61’s distance,

kpc, based on the measured hydrogen column density and new interstellar extinction 3D maps.

Background Unsuccessful extubation may be due to swallowing dysfunction that causes airway obstruction and impairs patients’ ability to cough and expectorate.
Objective To determine whether swallowing assessment before extubation is helpful in predicting unsuccessful extubation due to airway secretions.
Methods This prospective study included all patients intubated orotracheally for more than 6 days. Before extubation, 3 tests designed to assess (1) cervical, oral, labial, and lingual motility; (2) gag reflex; and (3) swallowing were used at the bedside. Causes of reintubation were identified, and their relationship to patients’ swallowing function before extubation was evaluated.
Results Sixty-two patients were enrolled. Data on 55 patients reintubated for swallowing dysfunction were analyzed. Nine patients were reintubated because of obstruction related to upper airway secretions. Evaluation before extubation enabled prediction of 7 of those 9 unsuccessful extubations. Among the 23 patients with central nervous system disease, 3 of 4 unsuccessful extubations were predicted. According to a multivariate logistic regression model, motility and swallowing were independent predictors of unsuccessful extubation (area under receiver-operating-characteristic curve, 80%). The gag reflex was the only significant predictor of the ability to cough (area under curve, 73%) and excessive pulmonary secretion (area under curve, 67%). Swallowing was an independent predictor of the need for suctioning (area under curve, 78%).
Conclusions Using simple bedside tests to evaluate swallowing before extubation is helpful when deciding whether to extubate patients who have been intubated for more than 6 days. Involvement of nurses in these decisions would improve patients’ management.
A meta-analytic study examining the relationship between alexithymia and dissociation in psychiatric and non-clinical populations
Authors: Reyno Sandra Marie , Simmons Maria , Kinley Jackie 
Published: May 2020

Alexithymia and dissociation have been consistently linked in the literature, particularly in psychiatric populations. Both arise from a disconnection between conscious aspects of self-experiences and perceptions at both the mental self and bodily levels. This results in difficulty integrating thoughts, feelings and experiences into consciousness and memory, negatively impacting emotion awareness/regulation and reflective functioning. We conducted a meta-analysis to examine the strength of the relationship between alexithymia and dissociation in both clinical and non-clinical populations. Studies using two common measures of these constructs were included (i.e., the Toronto Alexithymia Scale and the Dissociative Experiences Scale). Analyzing the effect sizes derived from 19 studies (including a total of 4664 participants) revealed moderate to strong relationships between alexithymia and dissociation. The strength of the association increased in clinical and younger aged non clinical populations. These findings are discussed in the context of treatment recommendations.
A Comparison of The Mathematical Processes Embedded in The Content Standards of Turkey and Singapore
Authors: Erbilgin Evrim 
Published: May 2020

This study compares Turkey's and Singapore's mathematics content standards in terms of the highligthed mathematical processes. A mathematical processes framework was employed to analyze the content standards drawing on the standards for mathematical practice defined by the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. The standards for mathematical practice include make sense of problems and persevere in solving them, reason abstractly and quantitatively, construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others, model with mathematics, use appropriate tools strategically, attend to precision, look for and make use of structure, look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. The data sources are 2013 mathematics curriculum standards of Turkey and 2013 mathematics syllabus of Singapore for grades 7 and 8. Data analysis revealed that the two countries reflected mathematical processes differently in their content standards. Some mathematical processes are not identified in Turkey's content standardsÂ while all mathematical processes are observed in Singapore's content standards. The distribution of the observed mathematical processes are also different in the two countries. Suggestions for future content standards revisions are shared in the paper.

Toezicht op het gebruik van algoritmen door de overheid – Tijd voor een zorgplicht
De overheid maakt in toenemende mate gebruik van systemen die taken verrichten die eerst door ambtenaren werden uitgevoerd. Denk aan het verlenen en uitbetalen van uitkeringen, het opleggen van boetes, bedienen van ophaalbruggen enzovoort. Bij de inzet van deze systemen wordt niet altijd onderkend dat hierbij voldaan moet worden aan de regels die voor de overheid gelden. Bovendien brengt de inzet van deze systemen – algoritmen – nieuwe, deels voorzienbare en deels onvoorzienbare risico’s met zich mee. Daarom wordt steeds vaker gevraagd om meer toezicht op algoritmen. Om dit toezicht effectief te laten zijn zou er een zorgplicht moeten worden ingevoerd.
Autonoom toezicht op autonoom toezicht?

Autonoom toezicht op autonoom toezicht? – Enkele bestuursrechtelijke beschouwingen mede naar aanleiding van SyRI
Het bestuursrecht is niet alleen van belang voor de vraag aan welke normen overheidstoezicht met behulp van autonome (zelflerende) systemen is onderworpen, maar ook voor de vraag wie deze normen stelt en effectueert. Niettemin lijkt de dominante opvatting momenteel dat het bestuursrecht onvoldoende in staat zou zijn om het gebruik van zelflerende systemen adequaat te reguleren. Dit essay schetst hoe de rechtsontwikkeling ten aanzien van autonoom overheidstoezicht vorm kan krijgen als een (zelflerend) proces van laveren tussen analoog en digitaal bestuursrecht, waarbij de bestuursrechtelijke verworvenheden van het analoge toezicht worden geconfronteerd met de uitdagingen van het digitale toezicht.

Verantwoorde implementatie van artificial intelligence – AI biedt kansen voor toezicht
Automatische en Intelligente Systemen (IEEE, 2018) rukken steeds verder op in de samenleving. De toepassing ervan is echter niet onomstreden. Er is veel politieke en maatschappelijke onrust, met name over het gebruik van deze systemen door de overheid. Vooral toezichthouders liggen daarbij onder vuur. Snel wordt vergeten dat het gebruik van algoritmes kansen biedt voor het werk van toezichthouders. Daarom is een verantwoorde implementatie van artificial intelligence van groot belang, waarbij de toezichthouder zich verdiept in de werking van de technologie en de eisen die eraan gesteld moeten worden, welke kansen technologie biedt en wat nodig is om deze te realiseren. De toezichthouder moet oog hebben voor de gevolgen van technologie voor de positie van burgers en andere belanghebbenden, voor de veranderingen in verhouding tussen toezichthouder en burgers, en open oog voor (soms onvoorziene) rollen en bijpassende verantwoordelijkheden die op de toezichthouder afkomen als gevolg van het toepassen van technologie.

Intermedial Laughter
Authors: Lu Xiaoning 
Published: May 2020

The first wave of film comedy in socialist China enjoyed only an ephemeral presence amidst the Hundred Flowers Campaign. This chapter turns attention to the intersection of and interaction between cinema and the traditional Chinese performing art of xiangsheng in the mid-1950s, seeking to tease out an innovative strand of comic filmmaking in the Mao era. Specifically, it takes as its case study the xiangsheng dianying (crosstalk film) of 1956, Wandering in the Zoo, Awaking from a Dream (Youyuan jingmeng), starring the well-known xiangsheng duo of Hou Baolin and Guo Qiru. Through an introduction of xin xiangsheng, a new type of xiangsheng created for the new Chinese society and a careful textual analysis of this particular xiangsheng dianying, the chapter illustrates that the interplay of xiangsheng and film, as seen in Wandering in the Zoo, Awaking from a Dream, transfigured each of the two media, increased much of the viewing pleasure of this film, and provided an understanding of the specificities of both xiangsheng and film. This rather ingenious experimentation of dynamical intermediality demonstrates that laughter under Mao could be innovative and experimental.
Propaganda, Play, and the Pictorial Turn
Authors: Crespi John A. 
Published: May 2020

“Propaganda, Play, and the Pictorial Turn” re-visits the early Peoples Republic of China cartoon by contextualizing this form of popular art within the media ecology of the illustrated magazine. Focusing on the first several years (1950-1952) of the satire pictorial Cartoon, the essay questions the tendency to read early Mao-era cartoon art strictly in terms of Cold War binaries, arguing instead for attention to cartoons as just one among many dynamically interrelated, heterogeneric elements comprising the print genre of the illustrated magazine or huabao. Cartoon is to a significant extent a lineal descendent of Republican-era, Shanghai-based huabao whose varied imagetext contents encouraged forms of spectatorship historically linked to practices of urban consumerist play. The primary concern for the artists and editors of Cartoon, then, was adapting this existing visual technology of print to promote active forms of socialist play aligned with the political and educational goals of mass mobilization.
Att höra röster: Tre faser av lyssnande
Authors: Stjernholm Simon

English abstract: This article describes and discusses an ongoing attempt to listen better to the meaning-making potential that is not only inherent in words, but also in human speech’s auditory dimensions. Through a presentation of three chronologically ordered phases of listening, with particular focus on various forms of Muslim preaching, a string of fruitful analytical paths for aurally oriented studies of religion are expounded. The empirical examples include listening practices within a contemporary Sufi order, digitally disseminated oral Islamist messages, and media-adapted Muslim preaching with varying ideological content and communicative strategies. The article also relates these examples and analyses to a wider research field within the study of religion with attention to sound and voices.

Authors: Raini Atif Rahman , Masjood Mohd , Ashraf Humayoun , Ashraf Mohd. , Khalid Mohd. 
Published: May 2020

Aims:
To study retrobulbar haemodynamics in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) patients.

Methods:
It was a hospital based cross-sectional study carried out in Medical College Out Patient Department (OPD). A total of 26 patients with newly diagnosed POAG and 23 controls were randomly selected for the study. The haemodynamic parameters i.e. Peak systolic velocity (PSV), End diastolic velocity (EDV) and resistivity index (RI) were studied in ophthalmic artery (OA), central retinal artery (CRA) and short posterior ciliary arteries (SPCA) measured using Color Doppler imaging (CDI). Mean, standard deviation (SD) and Independent t-test was applied to compare the results between the two group.

Results:
The mean intraocular pressure (IOP) for the POAG group and control group was 26.31±4.51 mmHg and 17.04±1.26 mmHg, respectively (P < 0.001). The mean PSV for both OA and CRA, the mean EDV for all OA, CRA and SPCA were significantly lower whereas the mean RI in the CRA and SPCA were significantly higher in POAG than controls.

Conclusions:
Retrobulbar blood flow was significantly lower in POAG as compared to controls, thereby suggesting the importance of measuring the retrobulbar blood flow in POAG patients.
