description: These are the pre- and post-workshop evaluation cards for the GlasWeeAsian Plant Explorers workshop. They are available in multiple languages. They received ethical approval from the University of Strathclyde for anonymous data collection from our workshops.
 How to use the resources Print the designs, double sided, onto plain paper or card (no coating) Hand out cards at the start of the workshop, asking the attendees to respond to the prompt question and complete some light demographic information Set aside and deliver the workshop At the end, ask the attendees to flip over the postcards and complete the reverse side
 In theory, you should see an increase in precision, vocabulary, and knowledge after the workshop. We typically get ours printed on A6 or A5 card flyers at our local print shop, rather than using a home printer.

description: The Thomas-Fermi-Dirac (TFD) approximation and an sp3d5s* tight binding method were used to calculate the electronic properties of a delta-doped phosphorus layer in silicon. This self-consistent model improves on the computational efficiency of "more rigorous" empirical tight binding and ab initio density functional theory models without sacrificing the accuracy of these methods. The computational efficiency of the TFD model provides improved scalability for large multi-atom simulations, such as of nanoelectronic devices that have experimental interest. We also present the first theoretically calculated electronic properties of a delta-doped phosphorus layer in germanium as an application of this TFD model.

description: The mechanisms underlying the intrinsic photoresponse of few-layer (FL) molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) field-effect transistors are investigated via scanning photocurrent microscopy. We attribute the locally enhanced photocurrent to band-bending assisted separation of photoexcited carriers at the MoS2/Au interface. The wavelength-dependent photocurrents of few layer MoS2 transistors qualitatively follow the optical absorption spectra of MoS2, providing direct evidence of interband photoexcitation. Time and spectrally resolved photocurrent measurements at varying external electric fields and carrier concentrations establish that drift-diffusion currents dominate photothermoelectric currents in devices under bias.

description: Isolobodon portoricensis Allen, 1916. Ann. New York Acad. Sci., 27:19. TYPE LOCALITY: Puerto Rico, Jobo Dist., near Utuado. DISTRIBUTION: Hispaniola (Haiti and Dominican Republic) and offshore islands. Introduced on Puerto Rico, St. Thomas, St. Croix, and Mona Islands. The only known jutfa on La Gonave island. STATUS: Probably extinct, but possibly surviving on La Tortue island off the north coast of Haiti (Woods et al., 1985). SYNONYMS: levir. COMMENTS: Even though the type locality is Puerto Rico, the species was apparently introduced there by Amerindians and the natural range is restricted to Hispaniola. Reported as extinct by Hall (1981:868), but this species survived in Hispaniola and Puerto Rico until the last few decades, and may still survive in certain remote areas (Woods et al., 1985). Includes I. levir (Reynolds et al., 1953).

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Effect of Lorentz transformation on some properties of multi-qubit systems is investigated. It is shown that, properties like, the fidelity and entanglement decay as the Wigner's angles increase, but can be improved, if all the transformed particles are transformed with the same Wigner's angles. The upper bounds of the average capacity of the GHZ state increases while it decreases and more robust with the W-state as the Wigner's angle of the observer decreases. Under Lorentz transformation, the tripartite states transform into another equivalent states and hence no change on the efficiency of these states to perform quantum information tasks.

description: From 2002 to 2018, the Tongan Long Line fishery collected and compiled catch data (limited to presence records) for Albacore, Bigeye, Skipjack, and Yellowfin. The Tonga Ministry of Fishery and the South Pacific Community (SPC) Office in New Caledonia provided this data. To ensure adherence to regulations, at least two fisheries offices cross-verified the entire fish catch. The data consists of daily fishing positions (latitude and longitude) and date (day, month, and year), organized in a 1^0 spatial grid. Our study utilized catch per unit effort (CPUE), a standardized metric indicating fishing efficiency and effort, calculated by dividing the weight of the catch in metric tons by the number of hooks deployed per fishing record. To align with the temporal scales of the predictor variables, we aggregated the CPUE data into monthly and annual datasets using Microsoft Excel.

The entire fish catch is checked by a minimum of two fisheries offices to ensure compliance.

description: Air-vented ionization chambers exposed to clinical radiation beams may suffer from recombination during the drift of the charge carriers towards the electrodes. Thus, dosimetry protocols recommend the use of a correction factor, usually denominated saturation factor ($k_{\rm sat}$), to correct the ionization chamber readout for the incomplete collection of charge. The two-voltage method is the recommended methodology for the calculation of the saturation factor, however, it is based on the early Boag model, which only takes into account the presence of positive and negative ions in the ionization chamber and does not account for the electric field screening or the free electron contribution to the signal.
 The numerical simulation shows a better agreement with the experimental data than the current analytical theories in terms of charge collection efficiency. The classical two-voltage method, systematically overestimates the saturation factor, with differences increasing with dose per pulse also present at low dose per pulse. These results may have implications for the dosimetry with ionization chambers in therapy modalities that use a dose per pulse higher than conventional radiotherapy such as intraoperative radiotherapy but also in conventional dose per pulse for ionization chambers that suffer from significant charge recombination.
Correlated continuous-time random walks: combining scale-invariance with long-range memory for spatial and temporal dynamics

description: Standard continuous time random walk (CTRW) models are renewal processes in the sense that at each jump a new, independent pair of jump length and waiting time are chosen. Globally, anomalous diffusion emerges through action of the generalized central limit theorem leading to scale-free forms of the jump length or waiting time distributions. Here we present a modified version of recently proposed correlated CTRW processes, where we incorporate a power-law correlated noise on the level of both jump length and waiting time dynamics. We obtain a very general stochastic model, that encompasses key features of several paradigmatic models of anomalous diffusion: discontinuous, scale-free displacements as in Levy flights, scale-free waiting times as in subdiffusive CTRWs, and the long-range temporal correlations of fractional Brownian motion (FBM). We derive the exact solutions for the single-time probability density functions and extract the scaling behaviours. Interestingly, we find that different combinations of the model parameters lead to indistinguishable shapes of the emerging probability density functions and identical scaling laws. Our model will be useful to describe recent experimental single particle tracking data, that feature a combination of CTRW and FBM properties.

Biogeochemical surveys at Ohui and Pine Sinter epithermal Au-Ag prospects, Coromandel, and at Waiotapu Thermal Park, New Zealand
Publisher: name: GNS Science
Year: 2019

description: In 2017, biogeochemical surveys were conducted at the Pine Sinter and Ohui Au-Ag prospects located 15 km north of Whangamata near Oputere in the Hauraki Goldfield, Coromandel Volcanic Zone. Foliage from 138 samples of common tree ferns was collected at 117 sample sites (several species from selected sites). In addition, 18 samples of several common plant species were collected from 6 sites around the geothermal pools at Waiotapu, 27 km SSE of Rotorua, in order to compare and contrast the relative abilities of the different plant species to accumulate a range of elements. At Pine Sinter and Ohui, silver fern (Cyathea dealbata [‘ponga’]) proved to be the most widespread species and was the primary focus for these surveys. For comparison of relative element uptake, additional samples were collected of rough tree fern (‘wheki’, Dicksonia squarrosa) and black tree fern (‘mamaku’, Cyathea medullaris). All 156 samples were reduced to ash and analysed for 52 elements. At Pine Sinter, exploration has yet to find a feeder pipe to outcropping sinter that overlies a large flow-banded rhyolite dome and an altered andesite. Silver ferns have slightly anomalous Ag content in a north-trending zone located above the andesite near its contact with the rhyolite. All Au levels were low and no definitive trends were obvious. Over the eastern part of the rhyolite the ferns show a north-south trend of several elements (Ba, Ca, Sr, and Se) that suggest some carbonatisation of the underlying rocks; REE have some coincident trends. At Ohui, the Phoenix and Staircase Au-Ag-bearing quartz veins are quite well defined by the distribution of Ag and Sb, but not by Au. The Staircase veins also show some weak enrichment of As. Nickel, Co, and to a lesser degree S and Ca, define a north-easterly trend that follows some parallel faults. These elements are not enriched in samples from the vicinity of the Great Mexican fault, but some enrichment of Al, B and Mn suggests alteration. Zinc, Tl, Pb and Cu in the southwest are indicative of base metal mineralisation. From earlier soil surveys, there were patterns of Au, As, Sb and Hg that indicated enrichments near the Great Mexican fault, but these signatures are either not present in the ferns or the weak signatures are laterally displaced. Concealed deposits tend to be reflected in plants growing directly above mineralisation, whereas in such rugged terrain, soils may show mechanical dispersion. At Waiotapu, the data show that kanuka (Kunzea ericoides) has higher concentrations than manuka (Leptospermum scoparium) of the epithermal related elements Ag, Au, Sb and As, especially close to Champagne Pool. As with previous studies (Luck-at-Last mine and Puhipuhi (Goldmine) Hill), the data obtained from this study further demonstrate the potential value and some limitations in the use of silver fern (‘ponga’) as an exploration medium in the search for Au-Ag deposits in New Zealand.

description: Abstract

The learning model is a description of the direction and steps in teaching so as not to exceed the material limits and can help students to understand the material given more quickly. Therefore, it is expected that student understanding will improve with a suitable learning model. The learning models that are expected to be applied in lectures are Project Based Learning (PjBL) and Case Study (CS). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the implementation of learning/lectures in the Undergraduate Study Program of Building Engineering Education, Faculty of Engineering Universitas Negeri Surabaya in the Learning Evaluation course. This research is included in the quantitative category of evaluation research by looking at the implementation of PjBL and Case Study learning and evaluating student learning outcomes. The subjects of this study were three groups of learning in the Learning Evaluation course for the Even Semester 2023-2024 Undergraduate Study Program of Building Engineering Education, Faculty of Engineering Universitas Negeri Surabaya. The instruments used were observation sheets and assignments. The observation sheet is used to collect data on the implementation of learning, while the assignment is to obtain data on student learning outcomes. Data analysis was conducted using quantitative narrative descriptive. The results of this study are as follows: (1) PjBL and Case Study are suitable for the Learning Evaluation course with several notes; (2) Student learning outcomes by giving assignments achieved a good average with several notes.
Deformed Twistors and Higher Spin Conformal (Super-)Algebras in Six Dimensions

description: Massless conformal scalar field in six dimensions corresponds to the minimal unitary representation (minrep) of the conformal group SO(6,2). This minrep admits a family of deformations labelled by the spin t of an SU(2)_T group, which is the 6d analog of helicity in four dimensions. These deformations of the minrep of SO(6,2) describe massless conformal fields that are symmetric tensors in the spinorial representation of the 6d Lorentz group. The minrep and its deformations were obtained by quantization of the nonlinear realization of SO(6,2) as a quasiconformal group in arXiv:1005.3580. We give a novel reformulation of the generators of SO(6,2) for these representations as bilinears of deformed twistorial oscillators which transform nonlinearly under the Lorentz group SO(5,1) and apply them to define higher spin algebras and superalgebras in AdS_7. The higher spin (HS) algebra of Fradkin-Vasiliev type in AdS_7 is simply the enveloping algebra of SO(6,2) quotiented by a two-sided ideal (Joseph ideal) which annihilates the minrep. We show that the Joseph ideal vanishes identically for the quasiconformal realization of the minrep and its enveloping algebra leads directly to the HS algebra in AdS_7. Furthermore, the enveloping algebras of the deformations of the minrep define a discrete infinite family of HS algebras in AdS_7 for which certain 6d Lorentz covariant deformations of the Joseph ideal vanish identically. These results extend to superconformal algebras OSp(8*|2N) and we find a discrete infinite family of HS superalgebras as enveloping algebras of the minimal unitary supermultiplet and its deformations. Our results suggest the existence of a discrete family of (supersymmetric) HS theories in AdS_7 which are dual to free (super)conformal field theories (CFTs) or to interacting but integrable (supersymmetric) CFTs in 6d.

description: Let k be an arbitrary field and Q an acyclic quiver of tame type. Consider the path algebra kQ and the category of finite dimensional right modules Mod kQ. In the first part of the paper we deduce that the Gabriel-Roiter inclusions in preprojective indecomposables and simple homogeneous regulars (with dimension the minimal radical vector) as well as their Gabriel-Roiter measures are field independent. Using this result we can prove in a more general setting a theorem by Bo Chen which states that the Gabriel-Roiter submodule of a simple homogeneous regular (with dimension the minimal radical vector) is a preprojective indecomposable of defect -1. The generalization consists in considering the originally missing case $\tilde E_8$ and using arbitrary fields (instead of algebraically closed ones). Our proof is based on the idea of Ringel (used in the Dynkin quiver context) of comparing all possible Ringel-Hall polynomials with the special form they take in case of a Gabriel-Roiter inclusion. For this purpose we compute (using a program written in GAP) a list of useful Ringel-Hall polynomials in tame cases.

description: We review ideas on temporal dependences and recurrences in discrete time series from several areas of natural and social sciences. We revisit existing studies and redefine the relevant observables in the language of copulas (joint laws of the ranks). We propose that copulas provide an appropriate mathematical framework to study non-linear time dependences and related concepts - like aftershocks, Omori law, recurrences, waiting times. We also critically argue using this global approach that previous phenomenological attempts involving only a long-ranged autocorrelation function lacked complexity in that they were essentially mono-scale.

Impaired Flow-mediated Dilation Is Associated with Low Pulmonary Function and Emphysema in Ex-smokers

description: Rationale: Basic science research suggests a causal role for endothelial dysfunction in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Clinical studies examining endothelial function are lacking, particularly early in the disease. Flow-mediated dilation (FMD) is a physiologic measure of endothelial reactivity to endogenous nitric oxide.

Objectives: We hypothesized that lower FMD among former smokers would be associated with lower post-bronchodilator FEV1, higher percentage of emphysema using computed tomography (CT) and lower diffusing capacity.

Methods: We measured FMD, pulmonary function, and CT percentage of emphysema in a random sample of 107 cotinine-confirmed former smokers in the ongoing EMCAP study. FMD was defined as percentage change in the brachial artery diameter with reactive hyperemia. Generalized additive models were used to adjust for potential confounders and assess linearity.

Measurements and Main Results: Mean age of participants was 71 ± 5 years, 46% were female, and pack-years averaged 48 ± 26. Mean FMD was 3.8 ± 3.1%; mean post-bronchodilator FEV1, 2.3 ± 0.8 L; and mean CT percentage of emphysema, 26 ± 10%. A 1 SD decrease in FMD was associated with a 132-ml (95% confidence interval, 16–248 ml; P = 0.03) decrement in post-bronchodilator FEV1 and a 2.6% (95% confidence interval, 0.5–4.7%; P = 0.02) increase in CT percentage of emphysema in fully adjusted models. These associations were linear across the spectrum from normality to disease, independent of smoking history, and also significant among participants without COPD. Associations with diffusing capacity were consistent but nonsignificant (P = 0.09). The FMD–FEV1 association was entirely attributable to percentage of emphysema.

Conclusions: Impaired endothelial function, as measured by FMD, was associated with lower FEV1 and higher CT percentage of emphysema in former smokers early in COPD.

description: Reduced density matrix functional theory (RDMFT) and coupled cluster theory restricted to paired double excitations (pCCD) are emerging as efficient methodologies for accounting for the so-called non-dynamic electronic correlation effects. Up to now, molecular calculations have been performed with real-valued orbitals. However, before extending the applicability of these methodologies to extended systems, where Bloch states are employed, the subtleties of working with complex-valued orbitals and the consequences of imposing time-reversal symmetry must be carefully addressed. In this work, we describe the theoretical and practical implications of adopting time-reversal symmetry in RDMFT and pCCD when allowing for complex-valued orbital coefficients. The theoretical considerations primarily affect the optimization algorithms, while the practical implications raise fundamental questions about the stability of solutions. Specifically, we find that complex solutions lower the energy when non-dynamic electronic correlation effects are pronounced. We present numerical examples to illustrate and discuss these instabilities and possible problems introduced by N-representability violations.

description: Visible light communications (VLC) are motivated by the radio-frequency (RF) spectrum crunch and fast-growing solid-state lighting technology. VLC relies on white light emitting diodes (LEDs) to provide communication and illumination simultaneously. Simple two-level on-off keying (OOK) and pulse-position modulation (PPM) are supported in IEEE standard due to their compatibility with existing constant current LED drivers, but their low spectral efficiency have limited the achievable data rates of VLC. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been applied to VLC due to its high spectral efficiency and ability to combat inter-symbol-interference (ISI). However, VLC-OFDM inherits the disadvantage of high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) from RF-OFDM. Besides, the continuous magnitude of OFDM signals requires complicated mixed-signal digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and modification of LED drivers. We propose the use of delta-sigma modulators in visible light OFDM systems to convert continuous magnitude OFDM symbols into LED driver signals. The proposed system has the communication theory advantages of OFDM along with the practical analog and optical advantages of simple two level driver signals. Simulation results are provided to illustrate the proposed system.

Emission Height and Temperature Distribution of White-Light Emission Observed by Hinode/SOT from the 2012 January 27 X-class Solar Flare

description: White-light emissions were observed from an X1.7 class solar flare on 27 January 2012, using three continuum bands (red, green, and blue) of the Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) onboard the Hinode satellite. This event occurred near the solar limb, and so differences in locations of the various emissions are consistent with differences in heights above the photosphere of the various emission sources. Under this interpretation, our observations are consistent with the white-light emissions occurring at the lowest levels of where the Ca II H emission occurs. Moreover, the centers of the source regions of the red, green, and blue wavelengths of the white-light emissions are significantly displaced from each other, suggesting that those respective emissions are emanating from progressively lower heights in the solar atmosphere. The temperature distribution was also calculated from the white-light data, and we found the lower-layer emission to have a higher temperature. This indicates that high-energy particles penetrated down to near the photosphere, and deposited heat into the ambient lower layers of the atmosphere.

description: Objectives. We examined whether transnational ties, social ties, and neighborhood ties were independently associated with current smoking status among Latino immigrants. We also tested interactions to determine whether these associations were moderated by gender.

Methods. We conducted a series of weighted logistic regression analyses (i.e., economic remittances, number of return visits, friend support, family support, and neighborhood cohesion) using the Latino immigrant subsample (n = 1629) of the National Latino and Asian American Study in 2002 and 2003.

Results. The number of past-year return visits to the country-of-origin was positively associated with current smoker status. Gender moderated the association between economic remittances, friend support, and smoking. Remittance behavior had a protective association with smoking, and this association was particularly pronounced for Latino immigrant women. Friendship support lowered the odds of smoking among men, but not women.

Conclusions. Our results underscore the growing importance of transnational networks for understanding Latino immigrant health and the gendered patterns of the associations between social ties, transnational ties, and health risk behaviors.

Classical fields and quantum measurement for Bose-Einstein condensate

description: We analyze a process of splitting of the Bose-Einstein condensate and the mutual coherence of two separated atomic clouds. Within the classical fields approximation we show that coherence between clouds is degraded if atoms interact and if we account for the sufficiently long observation time. We also show, that upon recombination, the coherence across the sample is restored. The coherence is not fully degraded if the splitting potential remains sufficiently penetrable. We calculate the variance of atom number difference for this time-averaging measurement and show that for low temperatures it can be well below Poissonian limit like it was observed in the experiments.

description: Family Heptaxodontidae Anthony, 1917. Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., 37(4):183. SYNONYMS: Amblyrhizinae, Elasmodontomyinae. COMMENTS: Known only from sub-Recent fossils from Greater and N Lesser Antilles (Woods, 1989a). It is debated whether Amblyrhiza and Clidomys became extinct before or after humans arrived in the West Indies. This family is often placed near the Chinchillidae based on similar laminar plates of molariform teeth. One genus (Quemisia) is very similar in dental morphology to capromyids, however, and it is possible to derive all of the conditions seen in heptaxodontids from dental patterns found within the Capromyidae. This family should be placed adjacent to the Capromyidae.

description: This paper invites the reader to experiment with an easy-to-use MATLAB implementation of Metropolis integrators for Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation. These integrators are analysis-based, in the sense that they can rigorously simulate dynamics along an infinitely long MD trajectory. Among explicit integrators for MD, they seem to be the only ones that satisfy the fundamental requirement of stability. The schemes can handle stiff or hard-core potentials, and are straightforward to set up, apply and extend to new situations. Potential pitfalls in high dimension are discussed, and tricks for mitigation are given.

description: The discovery of amino acids in meteorites and the detection of glycine in samples returned from a comet to Earth suggest that the interstellar chemistry is capable of producing such complex organic molecules. Our goal is to investigate the degree of chemical complexity that can be reached in the ISM. We performed an unbiased, spectral line survey toward Sgr B2(N) and (M) with the IRAM 30m telescope in the 3mm window. The spectra were analyzed with a simple radiative transfer model that assumes LTE but takes optical depth effects into account. About 3675 and 945 spectral lines with a peak signal-to-noise ratio higher than 4 are detected toward N and M, i.e. about 102 and 26 lines per GHz, respectively. This represents an increase by about a factor of 2 over previous surveys of Sgr B2. About 70% and 47% of the lines detected toward N and M are identified and assigned to 56 and 46 distinct molecules as well as to 66 and 54 less abundant isotopologues of these molecules, respectively. We also report the detection of transitions from 59 and 24 catalog entries corresponding to vibrationally or torsionally excited states of some of these molecules, respectively. Excitation temperatures and column densities were derived for each species but should be used with caution. Among the detected molecules, aminoacetonitrile, n-propyl cyanide, and ethyl formate were reported for the first time in space based on this survey, as were 5 rare isotopologues of vinyl cyanide, cyanoacetylene, and hydrogen cyanide. We also report the detection of transitions from within 12 new vib. or tors. excited states of known molecules. Although the large number of unidentified lines may still allow future identification of new molecules, we expect most of these lines to belong to vib. or tors. excited states or to rare isotopologues of known molecules for which spectroscopic predictions are currently missing.
