Published: March 2021

Improving photothermal efficiency can reduce the melting threshold of metal nanowires. The photothermal efficiency of a polarized laser to Cu nanowires was investigated by numerical simulation and experiment. Our simulation results reveal that the photothermal efficiency of a polarized laser depends on the intensity and distribution area of surface plasmons excited by the laser. As the angle between the polarization direction of the incident laser and the long axis of the Cu nanowire increases, the laser-excited surface plasmons shift from both ends to the sidewall of the Cu nanowire. Such a distribution of surface plasmons was confirmed by the melting behavior of Cu nanowires irradiated by a 450 nm polarized laser. Increasing the laser wavelength will enhance the intensity of the surface plasmons but reduce the distribution area of the surface plasmons. As a result, a higher photothermal efficiency was achieved using a laser with a polarization direction perpendicular to the long axis of the Cu nanowire and a wavelength less than 550 nm. Due to the higher photothermal efficiency, the melting threshold of Cu nanowire irradiated by a laser with polarization perpendicular to the long axis of the Cu nanowire is 32 mW, which is around 20% lower that of Cu nanowire irradiated by a laser with polarization parallel to the long axis of the Cu nanowire.
Numerical modeling of extreme events observed in the all-solid-state laser with a saturable absorber
Authors: Bonazzola Carlos 
Published: March 2021

Extreme events (pulses of high intensity) are observed to appear
spontaneously in some chaotic regimes of the self-pulsing
all-solid-state laser with a saturable absorber (diode-pumped
Nd:YVO4 + Cr:YAG). Until now, the mechanism of build-up of these
pulses has remained unknown. Besides the practical interest in this
device of widespread use, the laser with a saturable absorber is
homologous to the Bénard–Rayleigh system with a solute. Experimental
observations show the events to appear even if a few different
transverse modes oscillate. This leads to a description in terms of a
few ordinary differential equations, instead of the more usual
description with an equation in partial derivatives. A minimum of five
transverse modes and hole burning in the absorber are found necessary
elements of the description. On the other hand, phases among the
spatial Fourier components do not need to be taken into consideration.
The demonstration that, in some systems at least, the formation of
extreme events can be explained with a few interacting degrees of
freedom has a broad impact.

Singing-in-between spaces: Bhooter Bhabisyat and the music transcending class conflict
Authors: Mukherjee Dhrubaa 
Published: March 2021

This article analyses Bhooter Bhabisyat, a Bengali political horror satire, as a counter-narrative to Bengali cinema’s monocultural bhodrolok branding. The article argues that Bhooter Bhabisyat is radical in its refusal to follow hegemonic homogenizing musical styles classified into genres such as folk, popular, traditional and modern, which tend to be ethnocentric and class based with serious value judgments about the superiority of certain musical forms over others. Instead, Bhooter Bhabisyat uses a variety of distinct Bengali musical traditions to problematize the historic role of capitalist media that work to homogenize and popularize the dominant culture of the ruling classes. The hybrid songs of the film disrupt a sense of homogeneous bhodrolok class position that Bengali cinema has historically sustained. Through the strategies of musical pastiche, Bhooter Bhabisyat offers a meta-historic narrative about Bengali cinema, which makes possible a critical investigation of the cultural discourses and historical narratives that are discursively embedded within the history of filmic production, circulation and consumption. If film histories are produced by repressing differences between social groups and constructing universal identification, then foregrounding film songs as decolonial storytelling methods that reemphasize local voices and subject matters can lead to an effort to read history from below.

The vulgar representation of time as a precise
and homogeneous continuum has […] diluted the
Marxist concept of history.
(Giorgio Agamben)

The history of all hitherto existing society is the
history of class struggles.

MEN AND SOCIAL TRAUMA OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC. THE MALADAPTIVENESS OF TOXIC MASCULINITY
Authors: Frąckowiak-Sochańska Monika 
Published: March 2021

The first purpose of this paper is to analyze the direct and indirect, short- and long-term consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic for men. The second purpose is to identify the mechanisms underlying the present and predicted pandemic’s impact on men’s life and health (both somatic and mental). The author interprets the higher men's mortality due to coronavirus rates and the males' suicide rates that heightened from the beginning of the pandemic due to life-style that reflects the toxic masculinity norms. This paper's theoretical framework is determined by the social (cultural) trauma theory and the Critical Studies on Men and Masculinities. The method used for the present study is desk research based on the integrated literature review including the results of empirical research directly or indirectly addressing males’ experience of the COVID-19 pandemic from the years 2019 and 2020, the previous pandemics (SARS in 2002-2004 and Ebola in 2014), other social crises caused by economic and political processes, and research explaining men’s stress-related behaviors.
Long-Range GABAergic Inhibition Modulates Spatiotemporal Dynamics of the Output Neurons in the Olfactory Bulb
Authors: Villar Pablo S. , Hu Ruilong , Araneda Ricardo C. 
Published: March 2021

Local interneurons of the olfactory bulb (OB) are densely innervated by long-range GABAergic neurons from the basal forebrain (BF), suggesting that this top-down inhibition regulates early processing in the olfactory system. However, how GABAergic inputs modulate the OB output neurons, the mitral/tufted cells, is unknown. Here, in male and female mice acute brain slices, we show that optogenetic activation of BF GABAergic inputs produced distinct local circuit effects that can influence the activity of mitral/tufted cells in the spatiotemporal domains. Activation of the GABAergic axons produced a fast disinhibition of mitral/tufted cells consistent with a rapid and synchronous release of GABA onto local interneurons in the glomerular and inframitral circuits of the OB, which also reduced the spike precision of mitral/tufted cells in response to simulated stimuli. In addition, BF GABAergic inhibition modulated local oscillations in a layer-specific manner. The intensity of locally evoked θ oscillations was decreased on activation of top-down inhibition in the glomerular circuit, while evoked γ oscillations were reduced by inhibition of granule cells. Furthermore, BF GABAergic input reduced dendrodendritic inhibition in mitral/tufted cells. Together, these results suggest that long-range GABAergic neurons from the BF are well suited to influence temporal and spatial aspects of processing by OB circuits.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTDisruption of GABAergic inhibition from the basal forebrain (BF) to the olfactory bulb (OB) impairs the discrimination of similar odors, yet how this centrifugal inhibition influences neuronal circuits in the OB remains unclear. Here, we show that the BF GABAergic neurons exclusively target local inhibitory neurons in the OB, having a functional disinhibitory effect on the output neurons, the mitral cells. Phasic inhibition by BF GABAergic neurons reduces spike precision of mitral cells and lowers the intensity of oscillatory activity in the OB, while directly modulating the extent of dendrodendritic inhibition. These circuit-level effects of this centrifugal inhibition can influence the temporal and spatial dynamics of odor coding in the OB.
Subjetividad hipermoderna & capitalismo actual: mirada crítica
Authors: Cruz-Kronfly Fernando 
Published: March 2021

Este artículo de reflexión es resultado de una investigación documental, de naturaleza exploratoria, que recurre a la narrativa del ensayo. Se persigue el objetivo de poner en evidencia la relación entre la subjetividad hipermoderna y el capitalismo actual, fundamento de las organiza- ciones que deben ser administradas y que son objeto de estudio del campo disciplinal de los estudios organizacionales. Se recurre a una exposición argumental de las maltrechas legitimidades del capitalismo y del socialismo, para develar la emergencia de la subjetividad hipermoderna como blindaje que garantiza su reproducción. Se concluye que esta goza de una vida convertida en fragmentos desconectados de la cadena del sentido que requiere toda utopía promisoria de un fu- turo mejor. En estas condiciones, los estudios organizacionales requieren repensar cuál es la nueva subjetividad que alimenta y aceita la vida organizacional. Se puede presenciar una nueva subjetividad caracterizada por una ceguera mediada por el interés subjetivo de consumir y agradecer al capitalismo contemporáneo permitirle no caer brutalmente en las precariedades que nacen del mercado libertario y moralmente desregulado. Así, se contribuye a los estudios organizacionales re- flexionando sobre la necesidad de concebir un nuevo pensamiento administrativo que se opongan a la anulación del ejercicio de la libertad y la igualdad jurídica moderna, que legitimó la política y la utopía como valores de dignificación del ser humano y de la vida.
Characterizing Stress Orientations in Southern Kansas
Authors: Skoumal Robert J. , Cochran Elizabeth S. , Kroll Kayla A. , Rubinstein Justin L. , McPhillips Devin 
Published: March 2021

ABSTRACT
Induced seismicity predominantly occurs along faults that are optimally oriented to the local principal compressive stress direction, and the characterization of these stress orientations is an important component of understanding seismic hazards. The seismicity rate in southern Kansas rapidly increased in 2013 primarily due to the disposal of large volumes of wastewater into the Arbuckle Group. Previously, local stress orientations in this area were poorly constrained, which limited our understanding of the complex faulting and diverse earthquake mechanisms in this region. We use shear-wave splitting and focal mechanism inversion techniques to create multiple, independent estimates of maximum horizontal stress directions (SHmax) and their spatial variation across the study area. We then create an integrated model of stress orientations for southern Kansas and northern Oklahoma using our local results in conjunction with previous, regional stress orientation estimates. We find that SHmax in both southern Kansas and central Oklahoma exhibits an east-northeast (∼N78° E) orientation, and these regions bound a northeast (∼N59° E) rotation within a ∼20  km area in northern Oklahoma near the Nemaha ridge.
La subversión del edén mazatleco. Empresarialismo turístico especulativo en la Isla de la Piedra
Authors: Ibarra Guillermo Eduardo , Moreno Adriana 
Published: March 2021

A partir de la evaluación del impacto en el desarrollo urbano portuario que tendrá Mazatlán, ubicado en el litoral del Pacífico, a consecuencia de la apertura de la carretera transoceánica que lo conectará con Matamoros, en el Océano Atlántico, formando el Corredor Económico del Norte de México, se muestra la inviabilidad y el carácter utópico y especulativo del proyecto turístico Amaitlán. Garden City, Mazatlán, localizado en la Isla de la Piedra, que se promociona por una inmobiliaria privada como ciudad verde, sustentable, capaz de generar una motricidad económica regional que duplique el mercado de trabajo local en un plazo de cincuenta años. Las tierras comunales de propiedad ejidal de los pobladores de la Isla han entrado en un juego especulativo que a mediano plazo afectará su patrimonio y su hábitat, cayendo en una lógica de acumulación por desposesión. Bajo estas circunstancias se concluye que Mazatlán no cuenta con capacidades para la innovación socio institucional del territorio turístico, corroborándose en Amaitlán.
Ciudad saludable, ciudad turística. Espacialización de imaginarios y prácticas urbanas (Rosario, Argentina)
Authors: Vera Paula 
Published: March 2021

El creciente proceso de turistificación de la ciudad y la ponderación de la experiencia urbana encuentra en el imaginario de lo saludable un recurso de competitividad que, por un lado repercute en la construcción de ciertos espacios urbanos y, por otro, induce a la promoción de ciertas prácticas y hábitos. El objetivo principal de este artículo es analizar las condiciones de posibilidad que operan en la conformación del imaginario urbano saludable en Rosario (Argentina), cómo incide en su proceso de turistificación y, por último, cómo interviene en la configuración del espacio público. Se emplea una estrategia metodológica cualitativa que combina el relevamiento documental y hemerográfico y el análisis de contenido de discursividades oficiales en torno a la planificación urbana y turística en combinación con recorridos etnográficos por los espacios urbanos para reconstruir algunos rasgos que nos permitan comprender las estrategias de composición urbana y turística. Se pudo comprobar que la imaginación espacial de lo saludable anclada en el espacio público recupera algo de la matriz de sentidos del higienismo decimonónico y lo actualiza a través de un disciplinamiento específico de la experiencia corporal en la ciudad contemporánea donde se intersectan lo turístico, la salud y la belleza. Esta imaginería se materializa en discursos y planificaciones, en la reconfiguración de las prácticas y espacios urbanos y, fundamentalmente, en la emergencia de una nueva subjetividad: el paciente/turista
Assessment of drug-prescribing perception and practice among dental care providers: a cross-sectional Lebanese study

Background: Dentists play an essential role in providing high-quality dental care, taking into consideration the clinical context and concomitant medications taken by the patients.
Objective: This study aimed to assess drug-prescribing perception and practices in addition to drug-related educational needs among Lebanese dentists; it also evaluated the need for interprofessional collaboration between dentists and pharmacists.
Methods: An exploratory cross-sectional study using an online questionnaire targeted a sample of dentists from all Lebanese districts. Participants gave their consent by accepting to complete the survey (ethics approval reference: USJ-2016-63). The questionnaire consisted of closed-ended questions exploring: 1) drug-prescribing perception, 2) drug-prescribing practice, and 3) collaboration with pharmacists regarding their respective roles in providing appropriate counseling to patients. Two indexes were created: the first evaluated self-confidence in prescribing medications, and the second assessed dentists’ confidence in pharmacists. Logistic regressions were performed, taking each index as a dependent variable.
Results: A total of 137 dentists completed the survey (59% females; mean age: 42.17; SD: 13.78 years). The majority had a fair to good perceived knowledge in pharmacology and therapeutics (80.3%), only 30.7% reported to be sufficiently equipped to prescribe safely. Dentists exhibited particularly low perceived knowledge about prescribing in elderly patients, dosing, medication use in pregnancy, drug interactions, and adverse reactions. Dentists specialized in periodontics had the lowest odds of having self-confidence in prescribing drugs (aOR=0.25; p<0.001). Also, 64.3% declared that they routinely check a reference source before prescribing, and 78% relied on pharmaceutical companies and medical representatives to get information on medications. While 61% declared that pharmacists should provide oral care counseling, only half of them encouraged their patients to talk to their pharmacists about their medications. Only 15% considered that patients are getting enough counseling from the pharmacist, with a global confidence index below the median value, suggesting the need for more collaboration, especially with periodontists who exhibited the lowest confidence in pharmacists (aOR=0.45).
Conclusions: Lebanese dentists reported some lack of knowledge and confidence in prescribing practices. Education, training, and close collaboration between pharmacists and dentists are essential to overcome these problems and avoid potential harm to patients.

This report has been developed in the frame of the IEA SHC Task 61 Subtask A “User requirements”. The main objective was to rethink and reformulate user requirements to lighting (daylighting and electric lighting) in public buildings on the basis of a thorough literature study. The work is a joint effort of a number of scientists and represents collective knowledge in this topic. The concept of Lighting quality is the one, among many lighting concepts, which expresses the user perspective best. Lighting quality is the important goal of lighting designers and planners; however, it is difficult to define and to measure.
Reference applications for renewable heat

Published: March 2021

There is a high degree of freedom and flexibility in the way to integrate renewable process heat in industrial processes. Nearly in every industrial or commercial application various heat sinks can be found, which are suitable to be supplied by renewable heat, e.g. from solar thermal, heat pumps, biomass or others. But in contrast to conventional fossil fuel powered heating systems, most renewable heating technologies are more sensitive to the requirements defined by the specific demand of the industrial company. Fossil fuel-based systems benefit from their indifference to process temperatures in terms of energy efficiency, their flexibility with respect to part-load as well as on-off operation, and the fuel as a (unlimited) chemical storage. In contrast, the required temperature and the temporal course of the heat demand over the year determine whether a certain regenerative heat generator is technically feasible at all or at least significantly influence parameters like efficiency or coverage rate.
RESISTENSI DALAM NOVEL STUDENT HIDJO KARYA MAS MARCO KARTODIKROMO: KAJIAN POSKOLONIAL

Published: March 2021

This research use Mas Marco's novel Student Hidjo as material object. The Postcolonial theory will be used to analys Student Hidjo novel’s by Mas Marco. Postcolonial is a set of theories to explore the effects of colonialism in various documents and behaviors, including literature. This study uses qualitative methods to obtain the necessary data from the novel. This type of analysis uses descriptive analysis. The analysis will use deconstruction method. This is in accordance with postcolonialism which is a reversal of the colonial discourse. Such a method is useful for reversing the colonial discourse which presents the relationship between colonizers >< colonized in the novel.. The relationship that seemed stable was undermined by the subjectivity of the colonized through their resistance. The various resistances presented by the colonized were understood by the postcolonialists as a form of an ambivalent legacy of colonialism. The ambivalent side occurs because the resulting resistance strikes both sides. On the one side attacking the invaders, but on the other side attacking resisting subject.
Keywords: postcolonial, deconstruction, colonizers, colonized, ambivalent
