The Category of Semelfactivity in Polish Verbs
Iterativity occurs in opposition to semelfactivity; when no contrast is present, these terms lose their meaning. Iterativity may be difficult to perceive in verbs such as robić ‘to do’, smucić się ‘to be sad’, malować ‘to paint’, which can be used both in an iterative and a semelfactive capacity. It is therefore worthwhile to consider the problem of the opposition between iterativity and semelfactivity; it is worthwhile to investigate the morphological form of verbs which refer to actions that only happen once; it is worthwhile to examine the role of the aspect in those verbs, and to analyse their semantic marking (apart from semelfactivity). The issue is important for the Polish language, and yet it is commonly said that iterativity is in Polish in a state of decline. It is, however, only one certain type of the iterative : semelfactive pairs that is in decline; the emergence of the aspect changed the morphological nature of these pairs.
The final part of the article (Section 6) poses the problem of word formation properties of verbs that refer to one-time acts. In those verbs in which the prefix only has an inchoative or final value in reference to the base (pomyśleć ‘to think’, zrobić ‘to do’), a blocking of the formation of iterativa can be observed. It might be even said that if such a verb is formed, it is an indication that the prefix introduced not only the value of perfectiveness, but perhaps another meaning as well. The peculiarity of semelfactivity has further consequences for the derivational system. It turns out that verbs which refer to actions that happen only once are incapable of creating substantive derivatives apart from names of actions, e.g. kopnięcie ‘a kick’, przewrócenie się ‘falling over’, zmartwienie się ‘becoming worried’. The problem is illustrated on the basis of examples furnished by dictionaries of word formation nests edited and developed by Mirosław Skarżyński.

Language Policy in Poland in the Context of the Impact of English on Polish
The paper examines the way and the extent to which language policies have affected the development of the Polish language. However, the purpose of the present paper is to highlight the change in attitude towards the increasing impact of English on Polish. The influence of English became more prominent in Poland after the change in the political system in 1989, and has for the most part been in the area of lexical borrowings. However, the influence of English is not only restricted to the inflow of English loanwords, but also extends to their relatively high frequency of usage. In addition, there is evidence of other types of influence that are non-lexical. However, the impact of English on Polish has not been as extensive as is claimed by some Polish linguists who since the early 1990s have lamented over the decline of the Polish language caused by the ”flood” of British and American English borrowings. Indeed, the status of English as a lingua franca was considered itself to be a threat to Polish, with even the possibility of the extinction of the tongue. This concern about language purity led to the creation of the Polish Language Council in 1996, whose aim has been to advise on and describe (rather than prescribe) linguistic behaviours among Polish language users. This legislative body was behind the Polish Language Act passed in 1999. Its purpose, however, has been to protect Polish rather than to purify it and to minimize the foreign influences (which mainly refer to English) rather than to eradicate them. Since the beginning of the 21st century, the Polish linguists’ attitude towards the ”Anglicization” of the Polish language has changed dramatically and it is now believed that the influence of English makes Polish richer and more globalized.
Effect of Grain Inverters in Cross-Flow Dryers on Kernel Fissuring and Head Rice Yield Reduction

Published: August 2020

HighlightsGrain inverters minimized fissuring of rice kernels closest to the heated air plenum at plenum air temperatures =55°C.Grain inverters had no effect on rice kernel fissuring across a grain column at plenum air temperatures &lt;55°C.Grain inverters decreased head rice yield reduction of samples dried at plenum air temperatures &gt;55°C but had no effect on head rice yield reduction at plenum air temperatures =55°C.One or two grain inverters in a cross-flow dryer can help reduce kernel fissuring and minimize head rice yield reduction.Abstract. Industrial-scale cross-flow dryers are commonly equipped with grain inverters to facilitate uniform drying across the column thickness, but limited information is available on the effect of grain inverters on rice milling quality. In this study, lab-scale drying experiments were performed to investigate the effect of grain inverters on kernel fissuring and head rice yield reduction. Rice samples of long-grain cultivar Roy J were dried for 60 min at plenum air temperatures of 45°C, 50°C, 55°C, and 60°C. The number of grain inversions during a 60 min drying period were 0, 1, and 2. After drying, a portion of the sample was tempered at a final bulk-rice temperature (heated tempering), while the other portion was tempered at ambient room temperature (ambient tempering). At plenum air temperatures of 55°C or 60°C, grain inversion (1 or 2 inversions) minimized fissuring of kernels closest to the heated-air plenum compared to 0 grain inversion. At 45°C and 50°C, grain inversion did not affect kernel fissuring. Similarly, at plenum air temperatures greater than 55°C for both ambient tempering and heated tempering approaches, 1 or 2 grain inversions significantly minimized head rice yield reductions compared to 0 grain inversion. These findings may be valuable for designing cross-flow dryers by informing decisions on the number of grain inverters needed to reduce fissuring and minimize head rice yield reduction.

Analysis of scintillation effects along a 7  km urban space laser
communication path
Authors: Jiang Lun , Dai Tianjun , Yu Xin , Dai Zhengshuang , Wang Chao , Tong Shoufeng 
Published: August 2020

In this study, the scintillation effects along a 7 km space laser communication path in an urban area were examined, including the relationship between the scintillation and bit error rate and the variation of the scintillation index with changes in the transmitting and receiving apertures. It was concluded that multi-aperture transmitting technology can effectively reduce the scintillation caused by atmospheric turbulence. For the investigated urban link, the scintillation index could meet the communication requirements for adjusting the receiving aperture. These results will facilitate space laser communication improvement and turbulence suppression along horizontal urban paths.
Convolutional neural network applied for nanoparticle classification
using coherent scatterometry data

Published: August 2020

The analysis of 2D scattering maps generated in scatterometry
experiments for detection and classification of nanoparticles on
surfaces is a cumbersome and slow process. Recently, deep learning
techniques have been adopted to avoid manual feature extraction and
classification in many research and application areas, including
optics. In the present work, we collected experimental datasets of
nanoparticles deposited on wafers for four different classes of
polystyrene particles (with diameters of 40, 50, 60, and 80 nm) plus a
background (no particles) class. We trained a convolutional neural
network, including its architecture optimization, and achieved 95%
accurate results. We compared the performance of this network to an
existing method based on line-by-line search and thresholding,
demonstrating up to a twofold enhanced performance in particle
classification. The network is extended by a supervisor layer that can
reject up to 80% of the fooling images at the cost of rejecting only
10% of original data. The developed Python and PyTorch codes, as well
as dataset, are available online.

Published: August 2020

To meet the increasing metrology demand of spectral irradiance in the short UV spectral range, a new spectral irradiance scale from 200 to 400 nm was realized at National Institute of Metrology (NIM) based on a high-temperature blackbody BB3500M, and a group of stable deuterium lamps are used as the transfer standards. Accurate real-time temperature of a blackbody is derived to reduce the temperature drift during the measurement period. A combination of an absolute and relative measurement system is designed to reduce repeatability uncertainty, and a selective optical filter method is used to remove fluorescence with a peak at 330 nm. A seven-point bandwidth novel correction method based on differential quadrature formula is put forward to correct the bandwidth error of the monochromator. The expanded uncertainties of the new spectral irradiance scale are 5.3% at 200 nm, 1.8% at 250 nm, 1.9% at 330 nm, and 3.6% at 400 nm, respectively. In the overlap wavelength from 250 to 400 nm, the average deviation between two types transfer standards, deuterium lamps and tungsten halogen lamps, is verified to be 0.39%, which are consistent with the associated measurement uncertainties.
Coupling buried etalon layers to an engraved metasurface for durable and large-aperture meta-optics
Authors: Feigenbaum Eyal , Ray Nathan J. , Yoo Jae-Hyuck , Nguyen Hoang T. , Elhadj Selim 
Published: August 2020

Many optical applications that could potentially benefit from the design flexibility provided by the metasurface approach are being prohibited by the limited scalability of the fabrication and the robustness of the end-result structures when using a resonant meta-elements-based approach. An alternative demonstrated approach with superior scalability and robustness is substrate-engraved metasurfaces, based on medium mixing homogenization, yet it suffers from very limited optical response. Here we propose advancing this approach by coupling the metasurface with buried etalon layers, leading to enhancement in the optical response. A transfer matrix analysis is used to study the parameter space, predicting that the patterned reflectance values range of a beam shaper could be raised from only 4% to 30% when the metasurface is engraved in silica, and even up to 66% when engraved into higher-index oxides. Using the method proposed here, the phase difference range across the metasurface could be increased by 0.4 radians beyond the range achievable by a metasurface engraved in silica and could reach even higher values when embedded in higher-index materials. Full-wave numerical simulations are used to demonstrate a cylindrical metareflector and a metalens, further validating the analysis.

Published: August 2020

Cavity optomagnonics has emerged as a promising platform for studying
coherent photon-spin interactions as well as tunable
microwave-to-optical conversion. However, current implementation of
cavity optomagnonics in ferrimagnetic crystals remains orders of
magnitude larger in volume than state-of-the-art cavity optomechanical
devices, resulting in very limited magneto-optical interaction
strength. Here, we demonstrate a cavity optomagnonic device based on
integrated waveguides and its application for microwave-to-optical
conversion. By designing a ferrimagnetic rib waveguide to support
multiple magnon modes with maximal mode overlap to the optical field,
we realize a high magneto-optical cooperativity, which is three orders
of magnitude higher compared to previous records of the
magneto-optical cooperativity obtained on polished yttrium iron garnet
spheres. Furthermore, we achieve tunable conversion of microwave
photons at around 8.45 GHz to 1550 nm light with a broad conversion
bandwidth as large as 16.1 MHz. The unique features of the system
point to novel applications at the crossroad between quantum optics
and magnonics.
Implementierung von agiler Führung in multinationalen Konzernen: Empirische Erkenntnisse aus der Halbleiterbranche
Authors: Leicht Lisa , Wendel Tilmann , Wolf Maximilian 
Published: August 2020

AbstractThis paper provides empirical insights and practical implications for the implementation process of agile leadership in multinational firms. Building on Häußler’s and Fischer’s Trafo-model our research shows that the dimensions “culture” and “leadership” have been important dimensions for the Advantest Europe GmbH in 2017 to boost the implementation of agile leadership. Concerning the dimension “culture” the most important insight was that agile leadership is more than agile methods such as Scrum or Kanban. Concerning the dimension “leadership” our results show for example that a lack of a common understanding of agile leadership and role conflicts of managers complicate the implementation of agile leadership. Our research has several implications for the practical implementation of agile leadership such as setting up a common understanding of agile leadership or developing clear mechanisms for delegation.

Authors: Mukherjee Samiran , Harne Prateek , Mirchia Kanish , Sharma Anuj , Manocha Divey 
Published: August 2020

ABSTRACT
Necrobiotic pulmonary nodules are an exceptionally rare extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease. Recognition is imperative because it may mimic other autoimmune pathologies such as granulomatosis with polyangiitis or sarcoidosis. We describe a 19-year-old man with a known history of ulcerative colitis who was found to possess bilateral pulmonary nodules on computed tomography imaging. Investigations that included an extensive autoimmune and infectious workup were inconclusive. Biopsy of the nodules revealed fibrinous exudate and palisading histiocytes that confirmed the diagnosis. He was started on prednisone therapy. A follow-up computed tomography a month later revealed near complete resolution.

Ativismo de esquerda nas redes sociais: contradições das novas trincheiras da luta política
Authors: Dias Vanessa Tavares 
Published: August 2020

Esse texto é resultado de pesquisa teórico-empírica, feita ao longo de quatro anos, sobre os novos repertórios do ativismo político de esquerda nas redes sociais. A pergunta que move a análise é: a resistência deste campo político, organizada nas mídias virtuais, tem sido eficiente para difundir visões de mundo progressistas e produzir uma reforma intelectual e moral num nível universal? Para a análise, partimos da perspectiva dialética que aponta para o movimento contraditório entre as formas de resistência à ordem capitalista por meio das novas tecnologias de comunicação versus a função dessas tecnologias no processo de ampliação constante do capital. Por meio da filosofia da práxis de Gramsci, concluímos que as lutas políticas à esquerda podem ser reprodutoras ou transformadoras da ordem, mas são sempre combates que fazem avançar a história.
Osmotic demyelination syndrome in a patient with Noonan syndrome and anterior hypopituitarism
Authors: Chua Tzy Harn , Loh Wann Jia 
Published: August 2020

Summary
Severe hyponatremia and osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS) are opposite ends of a spectrum of emergency disorders related to sodium concentrations. Management of severe hyponatremia is challenging because of the difficulty in balancing the risk of overcorrection leading to ODS as well as under-correction causing cerebral oedema, particularly in a patient with chronic hypocortisolism and hypothyroidism. We report a case of a patient with Noonan syndrome and untreated anterior hypopituitarism who presented with symptomatic hyponatremia and developed transient ODS.

Learning points:

Patients with severe anterior hypopituitarism with severe hyponatremia are susceptible to the rapid rise of sodium level with a small amount of fluid and hydrocortisone.

These patients with chronic anterior hypopituitarism are at high risk of developing ODS and therefore, care should be taken to avoid a rise of more than 4–6 mmol/L per day.

Early recognition and rescue desmopressin and i.v. dextrose 5% fluids to reduce serum sodium concentration may be helpful in treating acute ODS.
Single liver metastasis of a follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma: a rare pattern of organ spread

Published: August 2020

Summary
Well-differentiated thyroid cancer (WDTC), including papillary, follicular, and Hurthle-cell types, is characterized by a slow course and usually remain localized to the thyroid. However, a minority of these cases develop distant metastases with the most common sites being lungs, bones, and lymph nodes. Liver metastases of WDTC are rare and are usually found along with other distant metastases sites and in a multiple or diffuse pattern of spread. The recognition of distant metastasis in WDTC has a significant impact on the treatment and prognosis. However, because of their low incidence and awareness, distant metastases are often diagnosed late. Herein, we describe a case of a 71 years old woman who during routine surveillance of a follicular variant of papillary thyroid cancer (FV-PTC), 5 years after being treated for her primary thyroid tumor, was found to have a single liver metastasis and underwent liver segmental resection. This case highlights the importance of maintaining vigilant surveillance of patients with WDTC, and illustrates the possibility of unique metastasis at unexpected sites. Further studies are needed to understand the organ tropism of some WDTC leading to distant metastases development and to better prediction of an aggressive course.

Learning points:

WDTC patients with distant metastases have a poor prognosis with a 10-year survival of about 50%. The most common sites of distant metastases are lung, bone and lymph nodes.

Liver metastases are rare in WDTC, are usually multiple or diffuse and are found along with other distant metastases sites.

Single liver metastasis of WDTC is an unexpected pattern of spread, and very few cases are reported in the literature.

Rare sites of distant metastases in WDTC can manifest many years after the primary tumor, stressing the importance of maintaining vigilant surveillance.

More studies are needed to predict which WDTC tumors may develop a more aggressive course, allowing clinicians to individualize patient management.
