Authors: Mashakova Ainur , Khabutdinova Мilyausha 
Published: September 2023

The paper explores the French reception of the works by the Kazakh poet Olzhas Suleimenov. The main goal of the study is to comprehend and summarize this reception as an independent cohesive process. The authors emphasize the role of the translation of Suleimenov's works in creating a positive image of the Kazakh poet in France. The study analyzes the key points of the penetration of Suleimenov's texts into French culture, beginning in the 1970s. Particular attention is paid to reviews of the poem "Earth, Bow Down to Man!", poetry collections "The Book of Clay" and "Transformation of Fire," as well as the reception of his popular science work "Az i IA." As a result of the study, based on the positive French reception of Suleimenov's work, the authors conclude that there is a growing prestige of Kazakh literature and its gradual integration into international culture.

Authors: AlTarawneh Rodaina Khader , Etawi Wala’a 
Published: September 2023

This study sought the perspective of female special education students at Mu’tah University to determine the stereotypical image of people with Down syndrome. To achieve the aims of this study, a scale testing the stereotypical image of people with Down syndrome was administered to a random sample of 120 female special education students. The results indicated that female special education students harbored a neutral stereotypical image of people with Down syndrome. In terms of the academic year, statistically significant differences favoring third- and fourth-year students were observed in the dimension of health-related problems. No differences were noted in the general stereotyping of people with Down syndrome between the academic years, students taking a course on intellectual disability, and respondents with previous experience in dealing with people with Down syndrome.

Published: September 2023

Teachers' perceptions of their abilities to create and implement cutting-edge teaching tactics have a significant impact on students' success, particularly in mathematics. Additionally, educators who are confident in their own ability to educate help create a learning atmosphere. In light of this information, it is important to consider in mathematics education the importance of understanding the opinions of mathematics teachers regarding their level of self-efficacy and its relationship to creative teaching. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between teachers’ self-efficacy and creative teaching of primary mathematics teachers. The questionnaire, which included 28 items and required responses on a 5-point Likert scale, was given to 210 mathematics teachers at random. The findings indicate that there is a significant relationship between teacher self-efficacy and creative teaching. The results of Pearson correlation coefficient analysis show that instructional strategies are the largest predictor of teacher’s self-efficacy (r (210) = 0.532, p < 0.05), followed by student engagement (r (210) = 0.441, p < 0.01), and class management (r (210) = 0.409, p < 0.05). Therefore, creative teaching may reliably predict teachers’ self-efficacy by 29.0% (R=0.543), according to the results of the linear regression analysis. Overall, this paper provides valuable insight into the critical role of perceptions of mathematics teachers' self-efficacy in shaping creative teaching approaches to mathematics education.

Published: September 2023

Urban green space offers physical and sensory satisfaction, hence the importance of realizing that a simple wooded area, even randomly scattered, is not enough to provide an ideal urban setting. Developing and designing urban nature with designers and citizens is essential to being beneficial, relevant, and adapted to users’ needs. The state of urban green spaces in Algeria, particularly public parks, is currently a subject of debate. These areas have been neglected and significantly altered throughout the various phases of urbanization, resulting in their undervaluation and underappreciation. Public spaces are given less priority and are thus less developed than residential areas, leading to a need for more research, planning, and urban development initiatives focused on them. Rapid urbanization and the emphasis on housing needs have resulted in minimal production of public spaces, leading to a functional approach that needs to be more aware of their intended uses. This article sheds light on our case study, the public garden of Ain Bouaroua in Setif, Algeria. The research methodology combines historical and typo-morphological approaches with those of the users. In order to understand and identify the activities and behaviors of the users, questionnaires are distributed to various actors in the green spaces. The collection and processing of this information and data reveals the current uses and spatial practices while focusing on the evaluation of these green spaces. The results reveal that users’ motivations, proximity, and safety, and that the lack of facilities, the low density of vegetation, and the predominance of men are weak points. The proximity of educational facilities attracts schoolchildren. This work can contribute to developing the green network across the whole territory of Setif.

Published: September 2023

AbstractLearning new categories is a fundamental human skill. In the present article, we report the first comprehensive meta-analysis of category learning in autism. Including studies comparing groups of autistic and nonautistic individuals, we investigated whether autistic individuals differ in category learning from nonautistic individuals. In addition, we examined moderator variables accounting for variability between studies. A multilevel meta-analysis ofk= 50 studies examiningn= 1,220 autistic andn= 1,445 nonautistic individuals based on 112 effect sizes in terms of the standardized mean difference revealed lower-level category learning skills for autistic compared with nonautistic individuals,g= −0.55, 95% CI = [−0.73, −0.38],p< .0001. According to moderator analyses, the significant amount of heterogeneity,Q(111) = 617.88,p< .0001, was explained by only one of the moderator variables under investigation—namely, study language. For the remaining variables—namely, age, year of publication, risk of bias, type of control group, IQ of autistic group, percentage of male autistic participants, type of category, type of task, and type of dependent measure—there were no significant effects. Although hat values and Cook’s distance statistics confirmed the robustness of findings, results of Egger’s test and a funnel plot suggested the presence of publication bias reflecting an overrepresentation of disadvantageous findings for autistic groups. Objectives for future work include identifying additional moderator variables, examining downstream effects of suboptimal category learning skills, and developing interventions.
Singing Ability Assessment: Development and validation of a singing test based on item response theory and a general open-source software environment for singing data
Authors: Silas Sebastian , Müllensiefen Daniel , Kopiez Reinhard 
Published: September 2023

AbstractWe describe the development of the Singing Ability Assessment (SAA) open-source test environment. The SAA captures and scores different aspects of human singing ability and melodic memory in the context of item response theory. Taking perspectives from both melodic recall and singing accuracy literature, we present results from two online experiments (N = 247; N = 910). On-the-fly audio transcription is produced via a probabilistic algorithm and scored via latent variable approaches. Measures of the ability to sing long notes indicate a three-dimensional principal components analysis solution representing pitch accuracy, pitch volatility and changes in pitch stability (proportion variance explained: 35%; 33%; 32%). For melody singing, a mixed-effects model uses features of melodic structure (e.g., tonality, melody length) to predict overall sung melodic recall performance via a composite score [R2c = .42; R2m = .16]. Additionally, two separate mixed-effects models were constructed to explain performance in singing back melodies in a rhythmic [R2c = .42; R2m = .13] and an arhythmic [R2c = .38; R2m = .11] condition. Results showed that the yielded SAA melodic scores are significantly associated with previously described measures of singing accuracy, the long note singing accuracy measures, demographic variables, and features of participants’ hardware setup. Consequently, we release five R packages which facilitate deploying melodic stimuli online and in laboratory contexts, constructing audio production tests, transcribing audio in the R environment, and deploying the test elements and their supporting models. These are published as open-source, easy to access, and flexible to adapt.
Validation of scrambling methods for vocal affect bursts
Authors: Ziereis Annika , Schacht Anne 
Published: September 2023

AbstractStudies on perception and cognition require sound methods allowing us to disentangle the basic sensory processing of physical stimulus properties from the cognitive processing of stimulus meaning. Similar to the scrambling of images, the scrambling of auditory signals is aimed at creating stimulus instances that are unrecognizable but have comparable low-level features. In the present study, we generated scrambled stimuli of short vocalizations taken from the Montreal Affective Voices database (Belin et al., Behav Res Methods, 40(2):531–539, 2008) by applying four different scrambling methods (frequency-, phase-, and two time-scrambling transformations). The original stimuli and their scrambled versions were judged by 60 participants for the apparency of a human voice, gender, and valence of the expressions, or, if no human voice was detected, for the valence of the subjective response to the stimulus. The human-likeness ratings were reduced for all scrambled versions relative to the original stimuli, albeit to a lesser extent for phase-scrambled versions of neutral bursts. For phase-scrambled neutral bursts, valence ratings were equivalent to those of the original neutral burst. All other scrambled versions were rated as slightly unpleasant, indicating that they should be used with caution due to their potential aversiveness.

ВДАВЛИВАНИЕ ЭЛЛИПТИЧЕСКОГО ЦИЛИНДРА В ИДЕАЛЬНО ПЛАСТИЧЕСКОЕ ПОЛУПРОСТРАНСТВО
Authors: Nepershin R.I. 
Published: September 2023

Numerical simulation of the plane strain ideal plastic half-space indentation by the rigid elliptical cylinder with Prandtl’s contact fiction consideration is presented. The slip lines and velocities on the hodograph plane with positive plastic dissipative function are defined by numerical calculation of differential equations of the plane strain plastic flow theory. Curved form of the stress free boundary of the plastic region, which is function of the cylinder indentation depth, is defined by the plastic incompressibility condition. The numerical simulation satisfies the full equations system of the plane strain ideal plastic theory with Mises yield criterion and positive dissipative function in the plastic region. The simulation is constrained by the limit indentation depth, when in the case of the contact boundary curvature decreasing the centered fun slip lines region is degenerated, or in the case of the contact boundary curvature increasing by nucleation of small regions with negative plastic dissipative function, with indentation depth increase.

Published: September 2023

Abstract
XZ Tau AB is a frequently observed binary young stellar object in the Taurus Molecular Cloud; XZ Tau B has been classified as an EXOr object. We present new Chandra/HETG-ACIS-S observations of XZ Tau AB, complemented with variability monitoring of the system with XMM-Newton, to constrain the variability of this system and identify high-resolution line diagnostics to better understand the underlying mechanisms that produce the X-rays. We observe two flares with XMM-Newton but find that outside of these flares the coronal X-ray spectrum of XZ Tau AB is consistent over 20 yr of observations. We compare the ensemble of XZ Tau AB X-ray observations over time with the scatter across stars observed in point-in-time observations of the Orion Nebula Cluster and find that both overlap in terms of plasma properties, i.e., some of the scatter observed in the X-ray properties of stellar ensembles stems from intrinsic source variability.

S
< 0.05) found between the RM and the estimated host dispersion measure (DMhost; with Spearman rank correlation coefficient r

S
= +0.75). For these nine galaxies, we estimate their magnetic field strengths projected along the sight line ∣B
∥∣, finding a low median value of 0.5 μG. This implies the magnetic fields of our sample of hosts are weaker than those characteristic of the solar neighborhood (≈6 μG), but relatively consistent with a lower limit on the observed range of ≈2–10 μG for star-forming disk galaxies, especially as we consider reversals in the B-field, and that we are only probing B∥. We compare to RMs from simulated galaxies of the Auriga project—magneto-hydrodynamic cosmological zoom simulations—and find that the simulations predict the observed values to within a 95% confidence interval. Upcoming FRB surveys will provide hundreds of new FRBs with high-precision localizations, RMs, and imaging follow-up to support further investigation into the magnetic fields of a diverse population of z < 1 galaxies.
Simple Convective Accretion Flows (SCAFs): Explaining the ≈ −1 Density Scaling of Hot Accretion Flows around Compact Accretors
Authors: Xu 许 Wenrui 文睿 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Recent simulations find that hot gas accretion onto compact accretors is often highly turbulent and diskless, and shows a power-law density profile with slope α

ρ
≈ −1. These results are consistent with observational constraints, but do not match existing self-similar solutions of radiatively inefficient accretion flows. We develop a theory for this new class of accretion flows, which we dub simple convective accretion flows (SCAFs). We use a set of hydrodynamic simulations to provide a minimalistic example of SCAFs, and develop an analytic theory to explain and predict key flow properties. We demonstrate that the turbulence in the flow is driven locally by convection, and argue that radial momentum balance, together with an approximate up–down symmetry of convective turbulence, yields α

ρ
= −1 ± few 0.1. Empirically, for an adiabatic hydrodynamic flow with γ ≈ 5/3, we get α

, agrees very well with the observed accretion rates in Sgr A*, M87*, and a number of wind-fed supergiant X-ray binaries. We also argue that the properties of SCAFs are relatively insensitive to additional physical ingredients such as cooling and magnetic field; this explains their common appearance across simulations of different astrophysical systems.
On the Decline of Star Formation during the Evolution of Galaxies
Authors: Teklu Adelheid , Kudritzki Rolf-Peter , Dolag Klaus , Remus Rhea-Silvia , Kimmig Lucas 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Cosmological simulations predict that during the evolution of galaxies, the specific star formation rate continuously decreases. In a previous study we showed that generally this is not caused by the galaxies running out of cold gas but rather a decrease in the fraction of gas capable of forming stars. To investigate the origin of this behavior, we use disk galaxies selected from the cosmological hydrodynamical simulation Magneticum Pathfinder and follow their evolution in time. We find that the mean density of the cold gas regions decreases with time. This is caused by the fact that during the evolution of the galaxies the star-forming regions move to larger galactic radii, where the gas density is lower. This supports the idea of inside-out growth of disk galaxies.
Interplay between Anisotropy- and Skewness-driven Whistler Instabilities in the Solar Wind under the Core–Strahlo Model
Authors: Zenteno-Quinteros Bea , Moya Pablo S. , Lazar Marian , Viñas Adolfo F. , Poedts Stefaan 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Temperature anisotropy and field-aligned skewness are commonly observed nonthermal features in electron velocity distributions in the solar wind. These characteristics can act as a source of free energy to destabilize different electromagnetic wave modes, which may alter the plasma state through wave–particle interactions. Previous theoretical studies have mainly focused on analyzing these nonthermal features and self-generated instabilities individually. However, to obtain a more accurate and realistic understanding of the kinetic processes in the solar wind, it is necessary to examine the interplay between these two energy sources. By means of linear kinetic theory, in this paper we investigate the excitation of the parallel propagating whistler mode, when it is destabilized by electron populations exhibiting both temperature anisotropy and field-aligned strahl or skewness. To describe the solar wind electrons, we adopt the core–strahlo model as an alternative approach. This model offers the advantage of representing the suprathermal features of halo and strahl electrons, using a single skew–kappa distribution already known as the strahlo population. Our findings show that when the electron strahlo exhibits an intrinsic temperature anisotropy, this suprathermal population becomes a stronger and more efficient source of free energy for destabilizing the whistler mode. This suggests the greater involvement of the anisotropic strahlo in processes conditioned by wave–particle interactions. The present results also suggest that the contribution of core anisotropy can be safely disregarded when assessing the importance of instabilities driven by the suprathermal population. This allows for a focused study, particularly regarding the regulation of the electron heat flux in the solar wind.
Giant Impact Events for Protoplanets: Energetics of Atmospheric Erosion by Head-on Collision
Authors: Kurosaki Kenji , Inutsuka Shu-ichiro 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Numerous exoplanets with masses ranging from Earth to Neptune and radii larger than Earth have been found through observations. These planets possess atmospheres that range in mass fractions from 1% to 30%, reflecting the diversity of atmospheric mass fractions. Such diversities are supposed to be caused by differences in the formation processes or evolution. Here, we consider head-on giant impacts onto planets causing atmosphere losses in the later stage of their formation. We perform smoothed particle hydrodynamic simulations to study the impact-induced atmosphere loss of young super-Earths with 10%–30% initial atmospheric mass fractions. We find that the kinetic energy of the escaping atmosphere is almost proportional to the sum of the kinetic impact energy and self-gravitational energy released from the merged core. We derive the relationship between the kinetic impact energy and the escaping atmosphere mass. The giant impact events for planets of comparable masses are required in the final stage of the popular scenario of rocky planet formation. We show it results in a significant loss of the atmosphere, if the impact is a head-on collision with comparable masses. This latter fact provides a constraint on the formation scenario of rocky planets with substantial atmospheres.
