The contribution of music in drivers' time-to-arrival estimations
Creators: name: Pletcher, Ryan
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: Driver accuracy in decision-making and estimation is essential to the safety of everyone on the road. Numerous studies have highlighted the failings of drivers’ abilities in critical areas and demonstrated drivers’ tendencies to severely underestimate speed, susceptibility to overestimate time-to-arrival, and reliance on perceptions of time which are influenced by stimuli such as music or conversation (Schutz et al., 2015; Horswill et al., 2005; Brodsky & Slor, 2013). The purpose of the present study was to measure how music affected judgments of speed. To test this, observers were shown a series of videos in which their visual processing was interrupted and were asked to estimate when an approaching test car would have arrived. The results of the study indicated that tempo did not have an effect on time-to-arrival estimations, but that speed did affect time-to-arrival estimations. These results suggest that drivers’ musical choices may not be as important as previously thought for their abilities to make accurate estimations of the amount of time they have before an oncoming vehicle will reach them.
Towards the global description of nuclear charge radii: exploring the Fayans energy density functional

Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this work, we study the odd-even effect in binding energies and charge radii, and systematic behavior of differential radii, to identify the underlying components of the effective nuclear interaction. We apply nuclear density functional theory using a family of Fayans and Skyrme energy density functionals fitted to similar datasets but using different optimization protocols. We inspect various correlations between differential charge radii, odd-even staggering in energies and radii, and nuclear matter properties. Detailed analysis is carried out for medium-mass and heavy semi-magic nuclei with a particular focus on the Ca chain. By making the surface and pairing terms dependent on density gradients, the Fayans functional offers the superb simultaneous description of odd-even staggering effects in energies and charge radii. Conversely, when the data on differential radii are added to the pool of fit-observables, the coupling constants determining the strengths of the gradient terms of Fayans functional are increased by orders of magnitude. The Skyrme functional optimized in this work with the generalized Fayans pairing term offers results of similar quality. We quantify these findings by performing correlation analysis based on the statistical linear regression technique. The nuclear matter parameters characterizing Fayans and Skyrme functionals optimized to similar datasets are fairly close.

description: This PhD consists of a speculative biography that follows the life of a convict named William Coombe, who was transported from England to Australia in 1835. The narrative recounts his life journey from a small English village through his crime, trial, transportation to and assignment in, Australia. It relates the story of his re-entry into society after gaining a conditional pardon, thus assisting to close an identified gap in convict literature. The speculative biography drew together the elements comprising his redemption: work, family, social and political activity, and other pursuits he followed in building his future. His life demonstrated that convicts could successfully rehabilitate, ‘the stain’ could be expunged and ex-convicts could make a productive contribution to society. The story also provides insights into Queensland’s colonial history and the role of convicts therein. The exegesis explores speculative biography and the scholarly debates associated with colonial convict history. The main research questions revolve around better understanding how and why the speculative biography has been used to write the past, then how and why the creative artefact conforms and sometimes differs to this contentious biographical sub-genre. The exegesis also asks what are the key fictional and historical techniques authors typically use when mobilising this sub-genre and what specific challenges and obligations were encountered when doing so. Using the Practice-led research methodology, the exegesis offers a critical explanation of how the research questions were addressed and answered, thereby adding to the store of knowledge regarding the application of utilising the speculative biography in producing historical works within various contexts.

description: In this talk, we are presenting results connected to the development of an instance of the Galaxy platform (https://materialsgalaxy.stfc.ac.uk/) that hosts Galaxy tools associated with the processing of computational workflows related to catalysis research. 

The workflows studied in this case are used for processing X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) data, which is obtained at the Diamond Light Source (https://www.diamond.ac.uk/) at the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus in the UK.  This XAS data is associated with catalysis experiments, and the workflows that we have developed comprise a variety of data types and processing software.  This Galaxy instance is being developed to improve the accessibility of software tools for interpreting results from XAS experiments to members of the catalysis community.

For instance, we analysed the normalisation of raw XAS data and the post-processing of that data to perform an analysis of the Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) of particular experimental samples.

The normalization of the raw XAS data is currently done with the software tools DAWN[i] and ATHENA[ii], whereas the analysis of EXAFS is currently performed with the ARTEMIS[iii] software, which relies on simulations performed by the FEFF[iv] software.  The aim of this work is to simplify and streamline the workflow used for all of these processes by creating Galaxy tools associated with the DAWN, ATHENA, ARTEMIS and FEFF software tools. These can be all linked in a Galaxy workflow that can be easily reproduced and subsequently used to study a different sample.

The work presented here is part of the two scientific initiatives:

 

 The European project EuroScienceGateway (https://galaxyproject.org/projects/esg/), whose aim is to leverage European compute infrastructures for data-intensive research guided by FAIR principles.  

The UK’s Physical Sciences Data Infrastructure (PSDI) project (https://www.psdi.ac.uk/), which aims to accelerate research in the physical sciences by providing a data infrastructure that builds upon the various data systems

Genome-Wide Association Study for Disease Traits In Wheat and Its Wild Relatives

description: Wheat is the most widely grown crop in the world and as such, is an essential source of energy and nutrition. The challenges that breeders presently face is to increase production to feed the rising population of the world, while also accounting for climate change, pollution, water and environmental stresses. As genetic uniformity of modern cultivars has increased vulnerability to pests and diseases, the wild relatives of wheat offer a rich source of genetic diversity and stress tolerance traits, that can be harnessed and transferred in to modern wheat. In this study, we used array-based genotyping to explore genetic diversity in 385 domesticated and non-domesticated lines of wheat and their wild relatives. Genetic characterization using the wheat 90K array, and subsequent filtering and validation mapped 9,570 single nucleotide polymorphic markers onto the wheat reference genome. Phylogenetic analyses illustrated four major clades, clearly separating the wild species from the domesticated, and the ancient Triticum turgidum species from modern T. turgidum cultivars. Using this diverse germplasm, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed for leaf rust, the most widespread rust disease of wheat. Identification of novel sources of resistance is necessary to maintain disease resistance and stay ahead in the plant-pathogen evolutionary arms race. GWAS was conducted using eight statistical models for infection types against six leaf rust isolates and leaf rust severity rated in field trials for 3-4 years at 2-3 locations in Canada. Functional annotation of genes containing significant quantitative trait nucleotides (QTNs) identified 96 disease-related nucleotide associated with leaf rust resistance. A total of 21 QTNs were in haplotype blocks or within flanking markers of at least 16 known leaf rust (Lr) resistance genes. The remaining significant QTNs were considered loci that putatively harbor new Lr resistance genes. Future efforts to validate these loci will help understand their role in disease resistance and promote their utility for marker-assisted selection in pre-breeding.

Are interpersonal dislike and hatred discrete emotions?
Creators: name: Steele, Amanda Kathleen
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: Discrete emotions can be identified by their particular patterns of phenomenological, expressive, behavioral, emotivational goal, and strategy characteristics. Prior research has distinguished anger and contempt in such responses, but are interpersonal dislike and hatred also distinct? This thesis aimed to examine whether dislike and hatred are distinct and whether they should be regarded as additional discrete emotions. To test this, Amazon Mechanical Turk workers completed online questionnaires about experiences of anger, contempt, dislike, and hatred, measuring hypothesized thoughts, feelings, expressions, behaviors, goals, and strategies. Hierarchical multiple regressions assessed the unique variance added by each emotion, after controlling for the others. Consistent with the hypothesis that it should be considered a discrete emotion, dislike predicted hypothesized responses in multiple components, and fit a pattern of relational avoidance. Although hatred explained the greatest significant unique variance in 21 proposed responses, overall more evidence suggested hatred is a variant of anger. That is, hatred appears to have the general properties of anger (it predicted each of the hypothesized anger responses, such as yelling and wanting to get back at someone) plus some unique characteristics (e.g., fantasizing about bad things happening to someone, and wanting someone to suffer). It is suggested that hatred is a variant of anger that is felt when someone is seen as unchangeably malevolent, and involves more intense attacks aimed at preventing the person from causing further harm. These findings may help theorists and researchers better understand distinctions among emotions, and contribute to predicting social behaviors and emotional disorders. Future research should continue to investigate emotion differentiation (particularly the overlap between anger and hatred), as well as possible temporal and relationship type moderating variables.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The population of wild Baltic salmon has undergone in the last century a severe decline, due to dam building, overfishing and pollution. The international effort to reverse this decline can claim success in some of the main Baltic rivers where stocks are seen to be recovering, yet some wild stocks remain highly depleted. From a policy perspective there is a desire to identify a management strategy that would have a high probability of safeguarding the stocks while minimizing economic and social hardships of regulation. The difficulty in designing experiments in the real world makes simulation an attractive realm in which to evaluate alternative management regimes.

description: Seasonal shifts in predation habits, from a generalist in the summer to a specialist in the winter, have been documented for the great horned owl (Bulbo virginialis) in the boreal forest. This shift occurs largely due to varying prey availability. There is little study of this switching behaviour in the current literature. Since season length is predicted to change under future climate scenarios, it is important to understand resulting effects on species dynamics. Previous work has been done on a two-species seasonal model for the great horned owl and its focal prey, the snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus). In this thesis, we extend the model by adding one of the hare's most important predators, the Canadian lynx (Lynx canadensis). We study the qualitative behaviour of this model as season length changes using tools and techniques from dynamical systems. Our main approach is to determine when the lynx and the owl may invade the system at low density and ask whether mutual invasion of the predators implies stable coexistence in the three-species model. We observe that, as summer length increases, mutual invasion is less likely, and we expect to see extinction of the lynx. However, in all cases where mutual invasion was satisfied, the three species stably coexist.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.One of the most serious problems for researchers is estimation of spawning herd's number and total allowable catch (TAC) by methods, which correspond with precautionary approach principles. Usage of traditional methods of stock's and TAC estimation has the following obstacles: difficult age structure, significant differences of hydrological conditions on the sea feeding areas, on the long migration ways and long-lasting period of migration in offshore and mouth parts of spawning rivers. In this connection, method of smolt's counting was selected for prognosis estimation of spawning herd's number. The smolt's counting was conducted in rivers where salmon spawning-and-growth areas (SGA) had been estimated. The MBAL (minimal biological acceptable level) was used in the process of TAC estimations as limiting reference points. In accordance with the classical understanding MBAL is the biomass value of spawning stock below which the probable appearances of small generation increase. For the Atlantic salmon the spawning herds MBAL is possible to express through quantitative factor because main estimation of spawning herd is conducted usually in quantitative rather then in weight calculus. In this case, the meaning of limiting reference points is without changes because it reflects the number of spawning herd, below which the probability of small generation’s appearance increases. The present scheme of spawning herd's estimations, MBAL and TAC estimations is being directed both on stock conservation and on usage of different fishery types. The present model can be used for work with other migratorious fish stocks.

description: The matter created in central p+p, p+Pb and Pb+Pb collisions at sqrt{s}=5.02 TeV is simulated event-by-event using the superSONIC model, which combines pre-equilibrium flow, viscous hydrodynamic evolution and late-stage hadronic rescatterings. Employing a generalization of the Monte Carlo Glauber model where each nucleon possesses three constituent quarks, superSONIC describes the experimentally measured elliptic and triangular flow at central rapidity in all systems using a single choice for the fluid parameters, such as shear and bulk viscosities. This suggests a common hydrodynamic origin of the experimentally observed flow patterns in all high energy nuclear collisions, including p+p.

description: Background: The various physical and chemical conditions within the oral cavity are hypothesized to have a significant influence on the behavior of denture adhesives and therefore the overall comfort of denture wearers. As such, this study aims to understand the influence of oral cavity physiological parameters such as temperature (17 to 52 °C), pH (2, 7, 10), and denture adhesive swelling due to saliva (20–120%) on the behavior of denture adhesives. This study further aims to emphasize the need for a collective approach to modelling the in-situ behavior of denture adhesives. Methods: Rheological measurements were carried out using the Super Polygrip Ultra fresh brand denture adhesive cream to evaluate its storage modulus (G´) and loss modulus (G´´) values at a range of physiologically relevant temperatures, pH values, and degrees of swelling, to represent and characterize the wide variety of conditions that occur within the oral cavity. Results: Rheological data was recorded with respect to variation of temperature, pH, and swelling. Overall, it can be seen that the physiological conditions of the oral cavity have an influence on the rheological properties of the denture adhesive cream. Specifically, our data indicates that the adhesive’s mechanical properties are weakly influenced by pH, but do change with respect to the temperature in the oral cavity and the swelling rate of the adhesive. Conclusions: Our results suggest that the collective inter-play of the parameters pH, temperature and swelling ratio have an influence on the behavior of the denture adhesive. The results clearly highlight the need for developing a multi-parameter viscoelastic material model to understand the collective influence of physiological parameters on the performance of denture adhesives. Multi-parameter models can also potentially be utilized in numerically simulating denture adhesives using finite element simulations.
Quantity, diversity, and function of caregiver language input across contexts in low-ses households

description: The current study examined the differences in the amount, diversity, and functions of caregivers’ language use with their infants (14-27 months old) across three interactive contexts (book-reading, toy play, clean-up). Participants were 33 caregiver-infant dyads from low-income families. The interactions between caregivers and infants were video-recorded, transcribed, and coded. Results suggested that book-reading and toy play elicited more diverse language input from caregivers than did clean-up. In contrast, the sheer amount of language input did not differ across contexts. Additionally, caregivers used language for different functions during these interactive contexts. Although didactic language (e.g., “This is an apple.”) accounted for a significant portion of language input across all three contexts, it was used most often during book-reading, followed by toy play, then clean-up. In contrast, directive language (e.g., “Put it here!”) was used the most during clean-up, followed by toy play, then book-reading. Affirmative (e.g., “Great job!”) and corrective (e.g., “Stop!”) language was used more often during clean up than the other two contexts. These findings highlight the potential for language learning across various contexts. While some activities naturally elicit rich language input, others may preoccupy caregivers with behavioral management and task goals, making it more challenging to provide high-quality language input. Language interventions for vulnerable populations should take this into account and explore ways to overcome these barriers.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.In 1969 and 1995 North Sea herring abundance and catches were similar. By both these years the stock had declined from an earlier high, it was in a depleted state with SSB at around 400,000 t, which was below the precautionary biomass limit of 800,000 t. The fisheries were similar in magnitude and too high to be sustainable at 600,000 t annually. The paper compares and contrasts the scientific knowledge, the advice, the management action and the resulting outcome for the periods leading up to these points in time. The paper compares the information, actions and outcome over subsequent years. This comparison provides some insight into fisheries management issues. The paper concludes that good scientific information plays an important role when confronting difficult management issues. It sets the scene and provides the basis for further decisions. There are however, other critical aspects to management, such as political will, the need for a decision making organization, and economic feasibility. To illustrate the value of good science the costs of management advice and industry benefits from successful management of this large marine stock are compared.

description: Thanks to the detections of more than 3000 exoplanets these last 20 years, statistical studies have already highlighted some properties in the distribution of the planet parameters. Nevertheless, few studies have yet investigated the planet populations from short to large separations around the same star since this requires the use of different detection techniques that usually target different types of stars. We wish to develop a tool that combines direct and indirect methods so as to correctly investigate the giant planet populations at all separations. We developed the MESS2 code, a Monte Carlo simulation code combining radial velocity and direct imaging data obtained at different epochs for a given star to estimate the detection probability of giant planets spanning a wide range of physical separations. It is based on the generation of synthetic planet populations. We apply MESS2 on a young M1-type, the nearby star AUMic observed with HARPS and NACO/ESO. We show that giant planet detection limits are significantly improved at intermediate separations (~20au in the case of AUMic). We show that the traditional approach of analysing independently the RV and DI detection limits systematically overestimates the planet detection limits and hence planet occurrence rates. The use of MESS2 allows to obtain correct planet occurrence rates in statistical studies, making use of multi-epoch DI data and/or RV measurements. We also show that MESS2 can optimise the schedule of future DI observations.

It's not what you say, it's how you say it: a linguistic analysis of empathy in fiction readers

description: Empathy is crucial for understanding human social relationships. Research examining the factors that influence empathy can provide valuable insight into the ways in which empathy can be deepened. Some researchers have hypothesized that fiction exposure is one route to improving empathy and theory of mind. This study assessed linguistic markers linked to empathy in a large group of avid fiction readers who have submitted book reviews on the online social media site Goodreads.com. My goal was to investigate a relation between fiction exposure and increases in empathy. Previous research has demonstrated that the use of third person pronouns (e.g. “he” and “she”) in Facebook posts is negatively correlated with empathy scores on the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (Davis, 1983), (Otterbacher et al. 2017). The use of other linguistic markers, punctuation and writing in the present-tense, in Facebook posts were positively correlated with empathy. In this study, I used the frequency of these three linguistic markers in book reviews to assess empathy. I made use of a longitudinal data set in which people write reviews of numerous books over time. l allowed an assessment of changes in words associated with empathy as a function of books reviewed. This study features a large sample size (e.g. 100,000 book reviewers) and change measured over years. Findings indicate correlations between the number of reviews a person has written and the percentage of each review that reflects words associated with empathy. Participants were more likely to use the punctuation category, which is associated with greater empathy, in their reviews as a function of reading more books. Other word categories like the “he/she” pronoun and present tense verbiage were not found to be used more or less often as fiction exposure progressed.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.This paper raises question about the basis of present fisheries management. Fisheries management is likely to suffer from historical myopia, because stock assessments are based on time series which go only thirty or forty years back in time. The paper documents significant changes in the North Sea ecosystem on a centennial scale, and argues that long-term, historical abundance estimates are crucial to rebuilding programmes for threatened fish populations. Situated within the field of historical ecological, this paper will present findings on the abundance of ling (Molva molva) in the Skagerrak and north eastern North Sea in the 1872. Calculations are based on historical CPUE and catch data. In 1872, the abundance of ling in the Skagerrak and north eastern North Sea equalled the recent abundance of cod in the whole of the Skagerrak, the North Sea and the eastern English Channel. Ling abundances exceeded cod abundances significantly in the Skagerrak and in the north eastern North Sea in the 1870s.
Effects of the circularly polarized beam of linearized gravitational waves

description: Solutions of the linearized Einstein equations are found that describe a transversely confined beam of circularly polarized gravitational waves on a Minkowski backdrop. By evaluating the cycle-averaged stress-energy-momentum pseudotensor of Landau & Lifshitz it is found that the angular momentum density is concentrated in the 'skin' at the edge of the beam where the intensity falls, and that the ratio of angular momentum to energy per unit length of the beam is $2/ω$, where $ω$ is the wave frequency, as expected for a beam of spin-$2$ gravitons. For sharply-defined, uniform, axisymmetric beams, the induced background metric is shown to produce the gravomagnetic field and frame-dragging effects of a gravitational solenoid, whilst the angular momentum current additionally twists the contained space helically.
