MEASUREMENTS OF THE ABSORPTION AND SCATTERING CROSS SECTIONS FOR THE INTERACTION OF SOLAR ACOUSTIC WAVES WITH SUNSPOTS
Authors: Zhao Hui , Chou Dean-Yi 
Published: April 2016

ABSTRACT
The solar acoustic waves are modified by the interaction with sunspots. The interaction can be treated as a scattering problem: an incident wave propagating toward a sunspot is scattered by the sunspot into different modes. The absorption cross section and scattering cross section are two important parameters in the scattering problem. In this study, we use the wavefunction of the scattered wave, measured with a deconvolution method, to compute the absorption cross section σ
ab and the scattering cross section σ
sc for the radial order n = 0–5 for two sunspots, NOAA 11084 and NOAA 11092. In the computation of the cross sections, the random noise and dissipation in the measured acoustic power are corrected. For both σ
ab and σ
sc, the value of NOAA 11092 is greater than that of NOAA 11084, but their overall n dependence is similar: decreasing with n. The ratio of σ
ab of NOAA 11092 to that of NOAA 11084 approximately equals the ratio of sunspot radii for all n, while the ratio of σ
sc of the two sunspots is greater than the ratio of sunspot radii and increases with n. This suggests that σ
ab is approximately proportional to the sunspot radius, while the dependence of σ
sc on radius is faster than the linear increase.

ABSTRACT
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are radio bursts characterized by millisecond durations, high Galactic latitude positions, and high dispersion measures. Very recently, the cosmological origin of FRB 150418 has been confirmed by Keane et al., and FRBs are now strong competitors as cosmological probes. The simple sharp feature of the FRB signal is ideal to probe some of the fundamental laws of physics. Here we show that by analyzing the delay time between different frequencies, the FRB data can place stringent upper limits on the rest mass of the photon. For FRB 150418 at z = 0.492, one can potentially reach

First report of the genus Phytodietus Gravenhorst, 1829 (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae: Tryphoninae) from Thailand
Authors: Kostro-Ambroziak Agata , Reshchikov Alexey 
Published: April 2016

The genus Phytodietus Gravenhorst, 1829 is a species rich group of ichneumonid parasitoid wasps. It is represented in all zoogeographical regions, but knowledge of Phytodietus species in the Oriental region is patchy and restricted to some countries.
Here the genus Phytodietus is recorded from Thailand for the first time based on three species. Diagnosis and illustrations of P. longicauda (Uchida, 1931), P. pitambari Kaur et Jonathan, 1979 and P. spinipes (Cameron, 1905) are given. Furthermore, known distributional and biological data of the species are summarised and an identification key to the species is provided.
La police française à la lumière de la théorie de la justice procédurale
Authors: Lévy René 
Published: April 2016

Cet article 1 propose une synthèse des résultats d’un certain nombre d’enquêtes françaises et internationales récentes portant sur les relations entre la police et le public en France, en s’appuyant sur la théorie de la justice procédurale. Les enquêtes d’opinion convergent pour montrer que ce sont les jeunes et les membres des minorités visibles qui ont l’image la plus négative de la police et lui font le moins confiance. L’article rapproche cette image négative des enquêtes qui se sont intéressées aux relations concrètes de ces groupes avec la police, marquées par l’hostilité réciproque et la discrimination policière. L’article propose ensuite une explication de cette situation en se fondant sur l’histoire de la police française et s’efforce de cerner ce qui fait la spécificité du « style » policier français dans le domaine de la sécurité publique.
Parcours de travailleuses du sexe offrant des services d’escorte au Québec
Authors: Comte Jacqueline 
Published: April 2016

Cet article est basé sur des entrevues semi-dirigées faites auprès de 16 participantes engagées dans le travail d’escorte. La plupart sont ou ont été escortes indépendantes et plusieurs d’entre elles ont aussi une expérience de danseuse ou de masseuse érotique, ainsi que de travail en agence d’escorte. L’article présente et discute les résultats obtenus quant à leurs motivations à entrer dans l’industrie du sexe, leur expérience des différents milieux et des conditions de travail, l’impact de leur travail sur leurs relations amoureuses et leur consommation de drogue ou d’alcool. Concernant ces aspects, leur parcours s’avère assez semblable à celui qu’elles auraient pu avoir dans tout autre secteur d’emploi, à la différence des relations amoureuses qui sont souvent plus difficiles.
L’« imaginaire pénal » : penser les significations sociales de la punition du côté des espaces sociaux marginalisés
Authors: Décary-Secours Benoit 
Published: April 2016

Nous procédons dans un premier temps à une lecture critique de certaines des contributions majeures du champ de la sociologie de la punition afin de penser la peine au-delà de ses dimensions juridiques et sécuritaires, comme « institution sociale » complexe mobilisant des dimensions symboliques. Ces approches limitent toutefois la question du « sens » à celle de son « utilité » au sein d’un modèle théorique ou encore à celle qu’elle obtient des discours dominants dans un ensemble social. En nous inspirant de la pensée de Cornelius Castoriadis et de Jacques Rancière, nous proposons un programme théorique autour de la notion d’« imaginaire pénal » et de son pouvoir « instituant ». Il s’agit de favoriser une posture théorique en mesure d’accorder une valeur analytique réelle aux significations sociales de la punition qui sont produites au sein des espaces sociaux marginalisés. L’idée abstraite d’« imaginaire pénal » peut être opérationnalisée à partir d’une analyse discursive du « parler ordinaire » des espaces sociaux marginalisés.
Penser le soin des adolescents en institution à partir des apports de Winnicott
Authors: Desveaux Jean-Baptiste 
Published: April 2016

Cet article propose de prendre appui sur les apports théoriques de D.W. Winnicott pour penser le soin psychique auprès d’adolescents borderline accueillis en établissements médico-sociaux. En déployant un modèle psychothérapique basé sur l’expérience des liens précoces parent-nourrisson et les fonctions mobilisées dans les soins maternels, Winnicott a introduit un parallèle singulier avec les fonctions propres à la psychothérapie, s’éloignant parfois des enjeux strictement psychanalytiques. Des concepts tels que le holding , le handling et l’ object presenting , déployés pour décrire les soins maternels, nous apparaissent ainsi être des analyseurs féconds pour penser le soin psychothérapique. À partir de réflexions sur les notions d’alliance thérapeutiques et de l’investissement dans le soin, cet écrit tend à mettre en avant l’idée de certaines fonctions spécifiques aux soins d’adolescents carencés au travers de ces quelques notions winnicottiennes.
Émotions et moi, et moi, et moi
Authors: Teroni Fabrice 
Published: April 2016

Les émotions possèdent-elles un rapport privilégié au moi ? En premier lieu, une thèse ambitieuse doit situer ce rapport au niveau de l’intentionnalité des émotions. Ce rapport intentionnel peut prendre différentes formes dans la mesure où l’intentionnalité des émotions est complexe : une émotion porte sur un objet donné et l’évalue. J’examine ensuite trois thèses à ce propos. Pour la première, le moi est l’objet intentionnel de toute émotion. La deuxième fait appel à une forme plus subtile de réflexivité en affirmant que les émotions représentent d’autres états psychologiques du sujet. La troisième situe le rapport au moi au niveau évaluatif : toute émotion évaluerait de façon relationnelle, l’un des termes de cette relation étant le sujet qui la ressent. Ces trois thèses valent au mieux pour quelques émotions et il est souvent préférable de considérer que le rapport au moi n’est pas intentionnel.
Les découvertes émotionnelles et les motivations affectives
Authors: Lépine Samuel 
Published: April 2016

La thèse selon laquelle les émotions pourraient être « correctes » ou « appropriées » a reçu dans la philosophie contemporaine deux interprétations. Selon la première, nos émotions sont correctes lorsqu’elles représentent des valeurs qui existent indépendamment de notre perspective subjective sur le monde, de sorte qu’elles pourraient nous amener à découvrir ces valeurs. Selon la seconde, nos émotions sont correctes lorsqu’elles sont congruentes avec notre perspective évaluative subjective et, par conséquent, avec nos attachements affectifs et nos motivations d’arrière-plan. Je défends cette seconde interprétation, en soutenant que la première repose sur une compréhension lacunaire des mécanismes à l’œuvre dans les découvertes émotionnelles. Je propose ensuite un critère de correction qui soit suffisamment libéral pour prendre en charge la pluralité des motivations impliquées dans nos épisodes émotionnels.
Le caractère personnel des émotions
Authors: Naar Hichem 
Published: April 2016

Cet article explore la viabilité de la conjonction de trois thèses : (1) qu’il existe des valeurs objectives ; (2) que certaines émotions ont pour fonction de les représenter ; (3) que de telles émotions représentent ces valeurs de manière fiable. Nous cherchons plus particulièrement à réconcilier la troisième thèse avec l’observation que les émotions ont un aspect subjectif ou personnel qu’il n’est pas possible d’éliminer.
Quand nos émotions sont-elles raisonnables ?
Authors: Lemaire Stéphane 
Published: April 2016

Nous jugeons les réponses émotionnelles comme plus ou moins raisonnables étant donné leur objet et le contexte. Je soutiens que la légitimité de ces jugements repose sur le caractère raisonnable des désirs ou des dispositions émotionnelles qui expliquent ces réponses émotionnelles. Il est déraisonnable d’être triste de ne pas satisfaire un désir déraisonnable. Mais comment un désir peut-il être déraisonnable ? Je rejette l’idée selon laquelle les désirs seraient raisonnables parce que cohérents. Je suggère que nos désirs et nos dispositions émotionnelles sont raisonnables à deux conditions : premièrement, qu’ils contribuent à une vie subjectivement heureuse ; deuxièmement, qu’ils soient moralement justifiés.
Factors influencing stream baseflow transit times in tropical montane watersheds
Authors: Muñoz-Villers Lyssette E. , Geissert Daniel R. , Holwerda Friso , McDonnell Jeffrey J. 
Published: April 2016

Abstract. Stream water mean transit time (MTT) is a fundamental hydrologic parameter that integrates the distribution of sources, flow paths, and storages present in catchments. However, in the tropics little MTT work has been carried out, despite its usefulness for providing important information on watershed functioning at different spatial scales in (largely) ungauged basins. In particular, very few studies have quantified stream MTTs or have related these to catchment characteristics in tropical montane regions. Here we examined topographic, land use/cover and soil hydraulic controls on baseflow transit times for nested catchments (0.1–34 km2) within a humid mountainous region, underlain by volcanic soil (Andisols) in central Veracruz (eastern Mexico). We used a 2-year record of bi-weekly isotopic composition of precipitation and stream baseflow data to estimate MTT. Land use/cover and topographic parameters (catchment area and form, drainage density, slope gradient and length) were derived from geographic information system (GIS) analysis. Soil water retention characteristics, and depth and permeability of the soil–bedrock interface were obtained from intensive field measurements and laboratory analysis. Results showed that baseflow MTTs ranged between 1.2 and 2.7 years across the 12 study catchments. Overall, MTTs across scales were mainly controlled by catchment slope and the permeability observed at the soil–bedrock interface. In association with topography, catchment form and the depth to the soil–bedrock interface were also identified as important features influencing baseflow MTTs. The greatest differences in MTTs were found both within groups of small (0.1–1.5 km2) and large (14–34 km2) catchments. Interestingly, the longest stream MTTs were found in the headwater cloud forest catchments.
REACTIONS OF SILICA–SILANE RUBBER AND PROPERTIES OF SILANE–SILICA/SOLUTION-POLYMERIZED STYRENE–BUTADIENE RUBBER COMPOSITE
Authors: Tao Yan-Chun , Dong Bin , Zhang Li-Qun , Wu You-Ping 
Published: April 2016

ABSTRACT
Silane coupling agents can effectively improve the silica dispersion in rubber matrix and strengthen the interfacial interaction, and they have been widely used in tire treads to achieve low rolling resistance. 3-mercaptopropyl-ethoxy-bis(tridecyl-pentaethoxy-siloxane) (Si747) is a new coupling agent, and the temperature effects on the reactions between Si747 and silica and between Si747 and solution-polymerized styrene–butadiene rubber (SSBR) were investigated via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and solid-state 13C nuclear magnetic resonance in the present study. The results show that the Si747 grafting degree on the silica surface increases with increasing temperature, the cross-linking reaction between Si747 and SSBR can occur at 130 °C, and the reaction degree gradually increases with enhancing temperature. The silane–silica/SSBR composites were prepared at different in situ modification temperatures, and the temperature effects on the bound rubber content, filler dispersion, mechanical properties, and viscoelastic properties were investigated. It reveals that slightly pre-cross-linking between Si747 and SSBR lowers the tanδ at 60 °C of the SSBR/silane–silica composites, and in situ modification at 150 °C achieves a combination of low rolling resistance and high wet grip for silane–silica/SSBR composites.

Published: April 2016

Na Amazônia, a conversão das florestas em agroecossistemas tem se caracterizado pela redução nos estoques de carbono vegetal, o que não se alinha com os princípios da sustentabilidade. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar os impactos do uso do solo pela agricultura familiar nos estoques de carbono do solo, na quantidade acumulada e na qualidade da serapilheira. As formas de uso avaliadas foram: SAF = sistema agroflorestal, PA = pastagem cultivada, RT = roça de toco e MA = mata nativa, todos sobre Neossolo Quartzarênico. Em cada sistema foram coletadas sete amostras de serapilheira e de solo nas profundidades de 0-5, 5-10, 10-20 e 20-40 cm nos meses de julho de 2010 e janeiro de 2011. Foram analisados os teores de macro e micronutrientes, relação C/N, lignina, polifenóis e carbono na serapilheira e no solo. Entre os sistemas antropizados, o SAF apresentou maior produção de serapilheira e acúmulo de nutrientes nos resíduos nos dois períodos avaliados e maior estoque de carbono no solo no período seco. No entanto, seus resíduos foram mais recalcitrantes que os tratamentos MA e PA.
BOCA DO INFERNO LITERATURA X HISTÓRIA : UMA INTERPRETAÇÃO DO PROCESSO DE CRIAÇÃO DE ANA MIRANDA
Authors: Martins Denis Pereira 
Published: April 2016

Ana Maria Nóbrega Miranda teve seu lançamento no mundo literário com um livro de poesias intitulado Anjos e demônios (1978), entretanto, passou a ter visibilidade literária como romancista no final da década de 80, com o lançamento de Boca do Inferno. Trata-se de uma biografia romanceada do poeta Gregório de Matos, traduzida para mais de vinte idiomas. A obra tornou-se um clássico respeitado no campo da literatura. Subsidiada por leituras e mais leituras de textos do Padre Antônio Vieira e Gregório de Matos, a obra possui como cenário Salvador, no final do século XVII. Atenta à riqueza da linguagem empregada, utiliza-se de palavras vulgares para fazer juz a Gregório de Matos, apelidado como Boca do Inferno. Neste romance, de maneira crítica, Miranda visa mostrar uma terra marcada pela libertinagem, corrupção e luta pelo poder, retoma uma época em que o país se resumia em governantes corruptos e povo sem voz, sem autonomia. Dentro de sua proposta de literatura, o autor torna-se um historiador, um pesquisador. Utilizando-se do novo Romance Histórico, produz narrativas que focalizam acontecimentos integrantes da história oficial e, por vezes, definidores da própria constituição física das fronteiras brasileiras e também aquelas que promovem a revisão do percurso desenvolvido pela história literária nacional. Esse fazer literário, muito bem recebido pelo mercado editorial brasileiro, faz de Ana Miranda uma autora com um estilo único e recorrente. As vozes são múltiplas: onde acaba Vieira e começa Ana Miranda, onde é Gregório de Matos, ou o que restou dele em nossa memória?
PRÁTICAS E REPRESENTAÇÕES NO ESPIRITISMO BRASILEIRO
Authors: Fuckner Cleusa Maria , Jurkevics Vera Irene 
Published: April 2016

A proposta deste artigo é refletirmos sobre o Espiritismo, enquanto revelação da Doutrina dos Espíritos, entendendo suas práticas enquanto Filosofia, Ciência e Religião, a partir da sua codificação, em meados do século XIX, na França, bem como analisarmos os aspectos históricos que favoreceram sua inserção e sua consolidação na sociedade brasileira. Estudar o Espiritismo no Brasil implica analisar a expressão de religiosidade, como parte do sistema de vida de um grupo que envolve não somente a crença, como também a questão de conduta, isto é, um conjunto de práticas culturais e sociais, uma vez que a está associado ao pensamento científico, ao filosófico, à mediunidade, à prática caritativa, além de vários tipos de assistência social e de instituições educacionais

Published: April 2016

<p class="apa">Quality of instructional performance is the key skill needed for every teaching faculty for achieving the level of pedigree in the present educational scenario. However, the truth is that there are minimal studies to analyze the competency linking emotional intelligence to quality of instructional performance. Therefore the present attempt is to study the role of E.I. among University Instructors and analyze their quality of instructional performance. A sample of 110 Professors participated in the survey from different Universities in the Emirates of Abu Dhabi and Al-Ain. Emotional Quotient Inventory scale was developed to measure the EQ of Instructors. Statistical technique like ‘t’ test and ANOVA was used to find the test mean difference between two groups and more than two groups. The result revealed that emotional intelligence and self-efficacy had very significant relationship towards their work attitude followed by their performance.</p>

IntroductionAntiretroviral treatment (ART) has been scaled up over the last decade but compared to adults, children living with HIV are less likely to receive ART. Moreover, children and adolescents are more vulnerable than adults to virological failure (VF) and emergence of drug resistance. In this study we determined virological outcome in perinatally HIV‐1‐infected children and adolescents receiving ART in Togo.MethodsHIV viral load (VL) testing was consecutively proposed to all children and adolescents who were on ART for at least 12 months when attending HIV healthcare services for their routine follow‐up visit (June to September 2014). Plasma HIV‐1 VL was measured using the m2000 RealTime HIV‐1 assay (Abbott Molecular, Des Plaines, IL, USA). Genotypic drug resistance was done for all samples with VL>1000 copies/ml.Results and discussionAmong 283 perinatally HIV‐1‐infected children and adolescents included, 167 (59%) were adolescents and 116 (41%) were children. The median duration on ART was 48 months (interquartile range: 28 to 68 months). For 228 (80.6%), the current ART combination consisted of two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) (zidovudine and lamivudine) and one non‐nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) (nevirapine or efavirenz). Only 28 (9.9%) were on a protease inhibitor (PI)‐based regimen. VL was below the detection limit (i.e. 40 copies/ml) for 102 (36%), between 40 and 1000 copies/ml for 35 (12.4%) and above 1000 copies/ml for 146 (51.6%). Genotypic drug‐resistance testing was successful for 125/146 (85.6%); 110/125 (88.0%) were resistant to both NRTIs and NNRTIs, 1/125 (0.8%) to NRTIs only, 4/125 (3.2%) to NNRTIs only and three harboured viruses resistant to reverse transcriptase and PIs. Overall, 86% (108/125) of children and adolescents experiencing VF and successfully genotyped, corresponding thus to at least 38% of the study population, had either no effective ART or had only a single effective drug in their current ART regimen.ConclusionsOur study provided important information on virological outcome on lifelong ART in perinatally HIV‐1‐infected children and adolescents who were still on ART and continued to attend antiretroviral (ARV) clinics for follow‐up visits. Actual conditions for scaling up and monitoring lifelong ART in children in resource‐limited countries can have dramatic long‐term outcomes and illustrate that paediatric ART receives inadequate attention.

Published: April 2016

Abstract
The separation of DNA molecules according to their size represents a fundamental bioanalytical procedure. Here, we report the development of a chip-sized device, consisting of micrometer-sized fence structures fabricated in a microchannel, for the separation of large DNA molecules (over 10 kbp) based on the principle of size exclusion chromatography (SEC). In order to achieve separation, two approaches were utilized: first, the DNA samples were concentrated immediately prior to separation using nanoslit structures, with the aim of improving the resolution. Second, a theoretical model of SEC-based separation was established and applied in order to predict the optimal voltage range for separation. In this study, we achieved separation of λ DNA (48.5 kbp) and T4 DNA (166 kbp) using the present SEC-based microchip.
