description: Transmittance and reflectance measurements on glass for architectural applications using commercial spectrophotometers may be affected by errors resulting from an improperly operated instrument, an inappropriate calibration, etc. Discrepancies between the values of parameters such as light reflectance and solar factor measured on the same glass product by different laboratories can be very pronounced. In order to avoid disputes among glass producers and complaints from glass users the interlaboratory reproducibility and the accuracy of the measurements must be improved. A n intercomparison was organized by Technical Committee 10 "Optical Properties of Glass" of the International Commission on Glass among 15 laboratories and one metrological institute on transmittance and reflectance measurements on commercial coated and uncoated glasses. Good reproducibility and accuracy in transmittance measurements ( ± 0 . 6 %) have been achieved even with each laboratory using its own instrumental procedures. In the case of reflectance, a preliminary round robin performed using the same instruments gave very large discrepancies in the spectral and integrated values. Reproducibility and accuracy of the same order of magnitude as in the transmittance measurements were obtained when each laboratory used a standardized procedure and the same reference standards, the latter having optical characteristics similar to the samples.
What's Really at Stake with High-Stakes Testing?

description: High-stakes testing has the potential to make significant differences in the lives of children and adults across a variety of educational settings. Decisions related to high-stakes testing can affect individuals and systems at the local, regional, state, and national levels (Ysseldyke et al., 2004). Advocates of high-stakes testing hope test scores will prompt schools and organizations to reform policy, encourage teachers to adopt more effective practices, and motivate students to work harder based on the school's accountability report (Stecher, 2002). However, some studies indicate that high-stakes testing can have negative as well as positive consequences and that these consequences sometimes result in different experiences for females and minorities. In this article, we define high-stakes tests, describe both positive and negative consequences of these assessments as they relate to females and minorities, discuss reasons for performance differences among diverse groups, and share cautions regarding uses of high-stakes tests.

Standing on the Frontline: Having the Courage to Teach
Creators: name: Garner, Rochelle
Publisher: name: Advancing Women in Leadership Journal
Year: 2017

description: Issues of race, class, and gender along with many other characteristics that define human differences are inextricably woven into the fabric of the social institutions in the United States of America; the university classroom is not excluded. This article discusses the teaching experiences of an African-American woman teaching associate/doctoral student while teaching at a predominantly white institution and the resistance often encountered from students in the form of challenging authority, questioning credibility and/or grades, and other forms of disrespectful behavior that could be subtle and covert. Despite such challenges, the teaching associate discusses ways in which she used various strategies to successfully manage barriers in the classroom. Dealing with issues of social justice in the classroom inevitably creates a level of discomfort for individuals who have never had to deal with these issues; yet, it is critically important to continue to raise the level of awareness for faculty and administrators of the type of issues women and people of color are faced with in the classroom when dealing with these topics.

What facilitates completion of high school for students who experience the risk of early leave
Creators: name: Katz, Shirley
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This study explores the facilitation of completion of high school for students who experience the risk of dropping out. The purpose of the study was to develop a comprehensive scheme of categories to describe what facilitates completion from the perspective of high school students. An adaptation of The Critical Incident Technique (Flanagan, 1954) was used. Sixteen categories emerged from an analysis of incidents. The soundness and trustworthiness of the categories were tested. Results indicate that completion can be facilitated by emotional support and guidance, respect from teachers, opportunity to participate and get help, goals setting for the future, encouragement of autonomy and responsibility, recognition, participation in the arts or sport, and reward. What remains to be confirmed is the helping value of several categories that were novel, such as identity development through social comparison. Anecdotal information that was consistently observed in the contents of the interviews was included and discussed. Participants made suggestions to help other students struggling to complete high school. This study suggests promising developments in high school completion which have implications for research, practice and curriculum design in counselling and education.

New developments in NOₓ control - The Pilkington "3R" process
Creators: name: Shulver, Ian
Publisher: name: Offenbach : Verlag der Deutschen Glastechnischen Gesellschaft
Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: 660

description: There is increasing pressure from the regulatory authorities to reduce the emissions of the nitrogen oxides from glass plants by a significant amount. Exploiting its own technology, Pilkington originally developed the "3R" process for reducing these NOₓ emissions to below 500 mg/m³ waste gas (≈1.5 kg/t glass) from its float glass furnaces. This process has now been demonstrated to be apphcable to other types of regenerative furnaces. The capital costs incurred in installing 3R are less than 10% of alternative processes, with operating costs also significantly reduced. Unlike some o f the alternatives, the Pilkington process requires no fundamental changes in furnace design or operation and is the most effective technology to meet the most demanding NOₓ legislation
Succeeding in Academia: Practical Strategies for Achieving Tenure and Promotion at Research Universities
Creators: name: Ferreira, Maria
Publisher: name: Advancing Women in Leadership Journal
Year: 2017

description: Achieving tenure and promotion is an integral process to becoming a member of the academy's community. Tenure provides job security, ensures academic freedom, and protects faculty from institutional threats. As newcomers in the academy, women and minorities face challenges not previously encountered by their white male peers. Research indicates that in addition to scholarly, pedagogical, political, and personal issues, the tenure process for women and minorities also includes issues of gender and race. This paper provides women and minority faculty on the tenure track at research universities with practical strategies intended to facilitate their tenure and promotion process. The strategies focus on the three areas used in tenure and promotion decisions: research, teaching, and service.

Certain extensions of the Standard Model predict measurable levels of this otherwise rare decay. We reconstruct fully one neutral B meson and seek evidence for the signal decay in the rest of the event. We find no evidence for signal events and obtain B(B0 --> tau+tau-) < 4.1 x 10^-3 at the 90% confidence level.

description: The waveform templates of the matched filtering-based gravitational-wave search ought to cover wide range of parameters for the prosperous detection. Numerical relativity (NR) has been widely accepted as the most accurate method for modeling the waveforms. Still, it is well-known that NR typically requires a tremendous amount of computational costs. In this paper, we demonstrate a proof-of-concept of a novel deterministic deep learning (DL) architecture that can generate gravitational waveforms from the merger and ringdown phases of the non-spinning binary black hole coalescence. Our model takes ${\cal O}$(1) seconds for generating approximately $1500$ waveforms with a 99.9\% match on average to one of the state-of-the-art waveform approximants, the effective-one-body. We also perform matched filtering with the DL-waveforms and find that the waveforms can recover the event time of the injected gravitational-wave signals.

description: In my own quest for knowledge and beyond knowledge, wisdom, I read Maxine Greene's book, Releasing the Imagination . I sought guidance from Greene to re-form my own pedagogy related to teacher education. The tenth anniversary of its publication seemed an apropos time to consider its continuing value to educators. After reading and studying this work, I agreed with Elizabeth Vallance (1996) who said, This book is a hymn to the liberating potential of art, music, dance, and literature as portraits of other imagined worlds. And, it is a forceful argument that those portraits are essential to students' repertoires of images of what it means to be human in a community (p. 102)

Critical factors in the adolescent experience of an outdoor experiential education programme
Creators: name: Mauchan, Alison Jane Hope
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This study was based on the experiences of a sample (n=15) 14 and 15 year old students at Sea to Sky Outdoors School, an experiential outdoor education programme located on Keats Island, British Columbia. The purpose of the study was to gain insight into the experience of an outdoor education programme from the perspective of the students, and to discuss issues of gender in the context of this experience. The retrospective data was collected using the Critical Incident Technique (Flanagan, 1954). The interviews were audio taped and transcribed verbatim. Data analysis was based on creating categories of critical incidents based on the themes expressed by the students. The results reflect common themes which describe the experiential outdoor education programme from the perspective of the students. The findings of this study led to the general conclusions that; 1) outdoor and experiential education is a positive experience for most students; 2) there are differences between the males and females both in the expression and type of critical incidents recorded and 3) outdoor experiential programmes can be beneficial experiences for enhancing relationships, increasing awareness and providing an opportunity for enjoyable experiences for both sexes. In addition to these general conclusions, the findings of this study identify several important characteristics of "voice" in adolescents and provide preliminary support for the idea that participation in outdoor education programmes serves to decrease sex-role stereotyping in adolescence. The study also identifies several important aspects of an outdoor education programme from the perspective of the students.
Telling Stories: Examining the Views of an African-Centered Female Minority Leader

description: Many educators believe that unless a determined effort is made to include cultural relevance in public school curriculums, public education will continue to fail African-American students. In fact, the quality of one's experience in education and in the community is often identified as a critical determinant for gaining a foundation for higher intellectual pursuits. This article examines the beliefs of an African-centered educator as she uses her own African-centered model to empower African-American students and solve this serious problem in her community.

description: American higher education currently faces "harsh realities" (Altbach, 1999). "It has been argued," according to Altbach, "that higher education's golden age - the period of strong enrollment growth, increasing research budgets, and general public support - is over" (p. 272). There is a wave of change on the horizon. "Never before have we experienced the kind of change currently rocking our society" (Zahorski & Cognard, 1999, p. 2). Preparing our academic institutions for this change "promises to be perhaps the greatest of the many challenges in the decades ahead" (p. 2). Some of the changes that currently challenge higher education include "fiscal austerity, downsizing, heavy faculty workloads, underprepared students, a growing cohort of nomadic adjunct faculty, a tenure system under fire, [and] a demand for greater accountability and productivity from a disenchanted public" (p. 2). Perhaps the greatest challenge at present is the changing face of American higher education due to the influx of new populations of students. In parts of the country, p eople of different nationalities, cultural identities, and races are sharing academic spaces creating hybrid identities, new languages, and new academic cultures (Association for the Study of Higher Education, 2006). Policies, institutional practices, teaching methods, methods of assessment, and leadership will all need to change to better serve constituents in these evolving academic communities.

Dipolar interactions, molecular flexibility, and flexoelectricity in bent-core liquid crystals
Creators: name: Dewar, Alastair

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The effects of dipolar interactions and molecular flexibility on the structure and phase behavior of bent-core molecular fluids are studied using Monte Carlo computer simulations. Some calculations of flexoelectric coefficients are also reported. The rigid cores of the model molecules consist of either five or seven soft spheres arranged in a `V' shape with external bend angle $γ$. With purely repulsive sphere-sphere interactions and $γ=0^\circ$ (linear molecules) the seven-sphere model exhibits isotropic, uniaxial nematic, smectic-A, and tilted phases. With $γ\geq 20^\circ$ the smectic-A phase disappears, while the system with $γ\geq 40^\circ$ shows a direct tilted smectic--isotropic fluid transition. The addition of electrostatic interactions between transverse dipole moments on the apical spheres is generally seen to reduce the degree of tilt in the smectic and solid phases, destabilize the nematic and smectic-A phases of linear molecules, and destabilize the tilted smectic-B phase of bent-core molecules. The effects of adding three-segment flexible tails to the ends of five-sphere bent-core molecules are examined using configurational-bias Monte Carlo simulations. Only isotropic and smectic phases are observed. On the one hand, molecular flexibility gives rise to pronounced fluctuations in the smectic-layer structure, bringing the simulated system in better correspondence with real materials; on the other hand, the smectic phase shows almost no tilt. Lastly, the flexoelectric coefficients of various nematic phases -- with and without attractive sphere-sphere interactions -- are presented. The results are encouraging, but the computational effort required is a drawback associated with the use of fluctuation relations.

Educating for Social Justice: The Life and Times of Septima Clark in Review
Creators: name: Hines III, Mack T.

Publisher: name: Advancing Women in Leadership Journal
Year: 2017

description: One of the most important goals of teacher education programs is to train preservice teachers on how to teach for social justice (Atweh, Kemmis, & Weeks, 1998). Educating for social justice is teaching people how to make just and democratic contributions to their communities and society. Many teacher education programs use Jean Piaget's (1963), Lev Vygotsky's (1978), and other male theorists' learning theories to convey this idea to students. Scant research shows how these programs provide minority groups' perspectives on social justice education. This paper fills these voids by highlighting Septima Clark's (1898- 1987) endeavors of teaching for social justice. Septima Clark (1962) was a famous South Carolina educator and Civil Rights leader who used reading and writing to enhance African-American leaders. A lifelong learner, she combined her daily life experiences with the fundamentals of reading and writing to teach African-Americans how to become informed citizens of their communities. During this process, she continuously evolved and elevated her personal and professional philosophy of how to empower other people to change society. As such, her life and legacy bears significant implications for preparing preservice teachers to become lifelong leaders of graduating value-added, needs-satisfying citizens of society.

Corrosion tests - A very important investigation method for the selection of refractories for glass tanks
Creators: name: Dunkl, Michael
Publisher: name: Offenbach : Verlag der Deutschen Glastechnischen Gesellschaft
Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: 660

description: For determining and comparing the corrosion behavior of refractories against glass melts, a good reproducibility of the corrosion tests is needed. In the present paper the reproducibility of the various most common corrosion tests, the respective procedures and the applied evaluations are discussed. The investigation was carried out with fused-cast AZS material because it has an inhomogeneous microstructure, so that the reproducibility with this material is not as good as that of the corrosion tests with refractories which have a homogeneous microstructure. The investigated corrosion tests are: dynamic finger test, rotating cylinder face method, small rotating furnace test, crucible test, static finger test and static plate corrosion test. Among these methods the static plate corrosion test combines a good reproducibility with many advantages (disadvantages were not observed). An international round-robin investigation within the Technical Committee 11 of the International Commission on Glass confirmed the good reproducibility of the static plate corrosion test, and the TC 11 recommended it as standard corrosion test. In the present paper, moreover, the influence of the most important parameters on the static plate corrosion test is discussed. Besides the additional bubble drilling in the fluxline area, which can be eliminated directly by the evaluation, a possible influence of saturation, of evaporation or of initial processes must be considered and eliminated if necessary. For this reason the knowledge of the corrosion behavior for the various most common combinations refractory/glass melt is important, which will be determined within a round-robin investigation by TC 11 in the near future.
Quantum $W_{1+\infty}$ subalgebras of BCD type and symmetric polynomials

description: The infinite affine Lie algebras of type ABCD, also called $\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}(\infty)$, $\widehat{\mathfrak{o}}(\infty)$, $\widehat{\mathfrak{sp}}(\infty)$, are equivalent to subalgebras of the quantum $W_{1+\infty}$ algebras. They have well-known representations on the Fock space of either a Dirac fermion ($\hat A_\infty$), a Majorana fermion ($\hat B_\infty$ and $\hat D_\infty$) or a symplectic boson ($\hat C_\infty$). Explicit formulas for the action of the quantum $W_{1+\infty}$ subalgebras on the Fock states are proposed for each representation. These formulas are the equivalent of the \textit{vertical presentation} of the quantum toroidal $\mathfrak{gl}(1)$ algebra Fock representation. They provide an alternative to the fermionic and bosonic expressions of the \textit{horizontal presentation}. Furthermore, these algebras are known to have a deep connection with symmetric polynomials. The action of the quantum $W_{1+\infty}$ generators leads to the derivation of Pieri-like rules and q-difference equations for these polynomials. In the specific case of $\hat B_\infty$, a q-difference equation is obtained for $Q$-Schur polynomials indexed by strict partitions.

Evolution of Gas in Galaxies

description: The SKA will be a unique instrument with which to study the evolution of the gas content of galaxies. A proposed deep (~8 Msec) 'pencil-beam' survey is simulated using recently updated specifications for SKA sensitivity and survey speed. Almost 10^7 galaxies could be detected in the redshifted 21cm line, most at redshifts in excess of two. This will enable confident statements to be made about the evolution of the cosmic HI density and the HI mass function to z=3, corresponding to a lookback time of 11 Gyr. However, galaxies or groups of galaxies with masses the same as the most HI-massive galaxies at z=0 will be detectable at redshifts of 6, if they exist. The ideal instrument for studying HI evolution would have an instantaneous sensitivity at least a factor of two higher than current specifications in the critical frequency range 200-500 MHz, or A/T > 2x10^4 m^2/K. The capabilities of the SKA will be highly complementary to ALMA which will be able to study the evolution of the molecular gas component over the same redshift range.

The Educational Leadership of Anna Julia Haywood Cooper

Publisher: name: Advancing Women in Leadership Journal
Year: 2017

description: Anna Julia Haywood Cooper (1859-1964) was one of the most influential African-American educators of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Heralded as a community activist, author, and scholar, Cooper dedicated her entire life to the education and empowerment of African-American youth and adults. Her commitment and passionate belief in the power of education as a vehicle to social, economic, and political freedom was a driving force in her life. As a classroom teacher, high school principal, and college president, Cooper initiated and implemented pioneering educational reforms, which reflected her distinctive vision of education for Blacks, females, and working-class people. Cooper's vision of education challenged the dominant discourse concerning how African-Americans, females, and working-class adults should be educated by offering alternative ways of educating these disenfranchised groups. Indeed, her ideals of education were framed by her social location as a Black woman in an era when few Blacks and few women were educated, and when most were disenfranchised.

Active thermal conductivity of hot glass

name: Lentes, Frank-Thomas
Publisher: name: Offenbach : Verlag der Deutschen Glastechnischen Gesellschaft
Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: 660

description: For (semi)transparent glass, it is suggested to distinguish between an active and a passive thermal conductivity. Essentially, the latter is attached to the heat transfer through long-range photons most of which are both emitted and absorbed outside the glass volume, the former to the heat transfer through phonons and short-range photons which have an intense energy exchange with the glass. As the temperature distribution in the glass volume can be influenced only by the heat exchange in which the glass is actively involved, it is determined by the active thermal conductivity. The sum of the active and the passive thermal conductivity, which is identical to the so-called apparent thermal conductivity, indicates the overall heat flux through the glass. Like the apparent thermal conductivity, the active thermal conductivity can be obtained from the prototype of thermal conductivity measurements where the heat flux through a sample between two heat reservoirs of different temperatures is measured. The apparent thermal conductivity follows from the usual reduction o f the measurement data, the active thermal conductivity is derived via a differentation rule. Comparing the calculation and the measurement of the temperature inside a cooling block of glass, this differentiation rule is verified.

Strong axial damping can be switched on to allow this oscillation to be used for quantum nondemolition detection of the cyclotron and spin quantum state of the electron. Weak axial damping can be switched on to circumvent the backaction of the detection motion that has limited past measurements. The newly developed switch will reduce the linewidth of the cyclotron transition of one-electron by two orders of magnitude.

description: Feminist therapy has risen correspondingly to feminism since 1960 (Israeli & Santor, 2000). Dutton- Douglas and Walker (1988) stated that over a decade feminist theory has greatly impacted the major therapy systems. Feminist therapy also has developed considerably and brought its unique contribution to the area of psychotherapy. This therapy addresses four important issues, which are: (a) the special problems that women bring into the therapeutic setting, such as motherhood, employment discrimination, marriages, rape, wife abuse, sexual harassment, etc.; (b) sex-role socialization in the development of women, for example, women are expected to maintain the body image of a certain thin figure and try their best to stay young because this society adores youth, especially for women, and other social sex-roles which keep women subordinate to the other gender and, therefore, causes women' s unhealthy problems.; (c) the inadequacies of contemporary theory, research, and practice in addressing the lives of women; and (d) the development of alternative approaches to conceptualization and intervention with women (Worell & Remer,1992).

As main results we find that the rho-pion-pion coupling constant is almost quark mass independent and that the rho mass shows a smooth quark mass dependence while that of the sigma shows a strong non-analyticity. These findings are important for studies of the meson spectrum on the lattice.

description: The LIGO-Virgo collaboration recently reported a puzzling event, GW190814, with component masses of 23 and 2.6 solar masses. Motivated by the relatively small rate of such a coalescence and the fact that the mass of the secondary is close to the total mass of known binary neutron star (bNS) systems, we propose that GW190814 was a second-generation merger from a hierarchical triple system, i.e., the remnant from the bNS coalescence was able to merge again with the 23 Msun black hole (BH) tertiary. We show that this occurs at a sufficiently high probability provided that the semimajor axis of the outer orbit is less than a few AU at the time of bNS coalescence. It remains to be explored whether the conditions for the formation of such tight triple systems are commonly realized in the Universe, especially in low metallicity (less than 0.1 solar) environments. Our model provides a number of predictions. (1) The spin of the secondary in GW190814-like systems is 0.6 to 0.7. (2) The component mass distribution from a large sample of LIGO sources should have a narrow peak between 2.5 and ~3.5 Msun, whereas the range between ~3.5 and ~5 Msun stays empty (provided that stellar evolution does not generate such BHs in the "mass gap"). (3) About 90% (10%) of GW190814-like events have an eccentricity of e > 2x10^{-3} (> 0.1) near gravitational wave frequency of 10 mHz. (4) A significant fraction (> 10%) of bNS mergers should have signatures of a massive tertiary at a distance of a few AU in the gravitational waveform. (5) There are 10^5 undetected radio-quiet bNS systems with a massive BH tertiary in the Milky Way.

Subjects: subject: 660

description: Glasses containing microcrystals of CuBr or CuCl show two characteristic absorption peaks caused by excitonic transitions. If temperature is increased the peaks become wider and flatter, whereas the complete disappearance o f the excitonic peaks takes place in a narrow temperature range of 30 to 50 K. Absorption intensity in the UV region (at about 30 000 cm⁻¹) increases simultaneously. The reason for these reversible changes is the melting of the microcrystals about 200 K below the melting point of the corresponding bulk crystals.

Teachers' Perceptions of "smart" girls: What does it mean for developing girls and young women into leaders?
Creators: name: Jacobs, Jacqueline E.
Publisher: name: Advancing Women in Leadership Journal
Year: 2017

description: Based on two studies, one of girls and young women in middle schools and high schools (n=802) and a random sample of their teachers (n=41), there is evidence that girls and young women are confident in their views of themselves as "smart" and do not see any differences in how they are treated by their peers or teachers for being "smart". The evidence from the teachers supports these perceptions and provides a glimpse at what characteristics/behaviors teachers perceive as identifying girls and young women as "smart." This evidence suggests that there is confidence among girls and young women relative to being "smart" which may well provide a basis for the development of skills which are needed to ensure girls and young women become leaders in our society.

Procrastination : what keeps us at it? - a search for positive aspects
Creators: name: Askwith, Howard F.

description: The study of procrastination has historically been approached from a negative bias. Often purported to be connected with other pejoratively valued behaviours such as perfectionism, avoidance, aversiveness, learned helplessness, and depression, procrastination is today seen as a problem that begs resolution. Existing research has been unable to determine a sufficiently comprehensive understanding of the phenomenon to prevent, reduce, or minimize the negative aspects of the experience. This fact, combined with the volume of previous research suggests that the procrastination is indeed a complicated phenomenon, composed of more aspects than have heretofore been subject to scrutiny. The research described in the following pages attempted to explore the complex nature of procrastination in greater detail, from an entirely new perspective. It sought to answer the question, "What are the positive and therefore reinforcing elements of the experience, what keeps us at it?" A Critical Incident methodology was used to interview 15 self-identified procrastinators who volunteered in response to notices posted on campus at the University of British Columbia. Eight women and seven men, who ranged in age from 19 to 49, were interviewed about their experience of procrastination. Transcriptions of audiotaped interviews were analyzed to identify themes from three aspects of the experience: (a) positive themes apparent in what happened during the experience, (b) positive themes of the reported outcomes of the experience, and (c) positive themes of what participants reported they would miss if they were no longer able to procrastinate. The results identified 20 themes that are discussed in terms of their relevance to existing literature about procrastination and to counselling psychology in general. The presence of clearly identified positive themes indicates that procrastination contains strong elements of reinforcement for its perpetuation. This description may further enhance our understanding of why procrastination has so far proven difficult to extinguish. The presence of positive themes suggests that the behaviour may be viewed as partially beneficial to the individual procrastinator and may call into question some demands for extinction of the behaviour. Recommendations for further research are made and implications for counselling are also discussed.

description: Optically resonant dielectric metasurfaces offer unique capability to fully control the wavefront, polarisation, intensity or spectral content of light based on the excitation and interference of different electric and magnetic Mie multipolar resonances. Recent advances of the wide accessibility in the nanofabrication and nanotechnologies have led to a surge in the research field of high-quality functional optical metasurfaces which can potentially replace or even outperform conventional optical components with ultra-thin feature. Replacing conventional optical filtering components with metasurface technology offers remarkable advantages including lower integration cost, ultra-thin compact configuration, easy combination with multiple functions and less restriction on materials. Here we propose and experimentally demonstrate a planar narrow-band-pass filter based on the optical dielectric metasurface composed of Si nanoresonators in array. A broadband transmission spectral valley (around 200~nm) has been realised by combining electric and magnetic dipole resonances adjacent to each other. Meanwhile, we obtain a narrow-band transmission peak by exciting a high-quality leaky mode which is formed by partially breaking a bound state in the continuum generated by the collective longitudinal magnetic dipole resonances in the metasurface. Our proposed metasurface-based filter shows a stable performance for oblique light incidence with small angles (within 10 deg). Our work imply many potential applications of nanoscale photonics devices such as displays, spectroscopy, etc.

Helping Non-tenured Education Faculty Get Published in Peer-reviewed Journals

description: If university trustees and administrators in the United States require junior faculty to publish or perish, then they should provide extensive support for this requirement. Such support is evident in the School of Education at the C.W. Post Campus of Long Island University, where administrators and faculty became team members and held cooperatively planned informal get-togethers with non-tenured faculty. These informal sessions focused on pertinent topics aimed at getting published in peer-reviewed journals. The topics included: (a) synthesizing a dissertation and condensing it into a manuscript format; (b) increasing an awareness of the format, content, editorial policy, and audience of journals for which authors intend to submit a manuscript; (c) realizing creative potential and being aware of methods that kill creativity; (d) becoming a serious critic and editor of one's own work; (e) weighing the benefits of submitting manuscripts to themed issues or regular issues of journals; (f) selecting journals that represent one's current developmental level of research and writing and that the university considers acceptable; (g) considering electronic journals as viable options for publishing; (h) thinking about presenting a paper at a convention but realizing its pros and cons; and (i) managing a busy academic year while being productive and visible, but not exhausted

description: In this work we consider black hole solutions to Einstein theory coupled to a nonlinear power-law electromagnetic field with a fixed exponent value. We study the extended phase space thermodynamics in canonical and grand canonical ensembles where the varying cosmological constant plays the role of an effective thermodynamic pressure. We examine thermodynamical phase transitions in such black hols and find that both first and second order phase transitions can occur in the canonical ensemble, while for the grand canonical ensemble the Hawking-Page and second order phase transitions are allowed.

description: We derive exact expressions for the forces and torques between biaxial molecules interacting via the RE-squared potential, a recent variant of the Gay-Berne potential. Moreover, efficient routines have been provided for rigid body MD simulations, resulting in 1.6 times speedup compared to the two-point finite difference approach. It has also been shown that the time cost of a MD simulation will be almost equal to a similar MC simulation, making use of the provided routines.

Lock in on Coordinates: Mapping the Glass Ceiling with Career Women's Reflections on Power

description: In an attempt to solicit career advice for young women by interviewing experienced career women, this study discovered the location of the proverbial glass ceiling and revealed distinct types of power operating in organizations. The careers of the women participating in this study were circumscribed by conflicts. If they developed technical expertise as a mode of insulation, they escaped high conflict but remained on a technical career path without access to higher executive opportunities. If they pursued executive opportunities through general management positions, they were surrounded by high conflict and became career casualties in powerful threat systems. A review of the literature revealed that each of these systems is similar to a type in Boulding's (1989) theory of power.
