description: Aim of the research project has been the synthesis of cyclopeptides and cyclopeptoids in order to investigate their structural properties and catalytic activities. In particular, studies of the arrangement and the cyclopeptoids organization in the crystal structure have been realized. Moreover, the influence of some aminoacidic residues on conformational control of peptoid skeleton was evaluated. In this context, the effect of proline, an amminoacid with an important role in the formation of secondary protein structures,1 and of a pseudo-proline residue on the cystal structure and conformational equilibria of some cyclopeptoids was evaluated. In particular, N-methoxyethyl cyclic peptoids containing proline and N-methoxyethyl hexacyclopeptoid (proline-free) in complexed and uncomplexed form (1-3, figure 1) were successfully synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction. In addition, the synthesis of a cyclohexapeptoid containing a pseudo-proline residue was obtained (4, figure 1). Furthermore, two isomeric amphiphilic peptoids (5 and 6, figure 1) were synthesized in order to investigate the effect of amphiphilicity on the crystal frame. All that is described in sections 2,3. Moreover, considering the well documented complexation properties of cyclopeptoids towards alkaline metals,2 the ability of some cyclohexapeptoids to work as phase-transfer catalysts was investigated in a benchmark SN2 reaction. In particular, the cyclopeptoid which revealed to be the most active was the N-[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl] side chain cyclohexapeptoid (7, figure 2). Therefore, we also tested some proline-rich cyclopeptoids in asymmetric phase transfer catalysis and the most promising demonstrated to be the cyclopeptoid 8 (figure 2) alternating N-3,5-dimethyl benzylamine glycine and proline residues. The catalytic studies mentioned are illustrated in section 4. Finally, in section 5 is reported a novel synthetic strategy for the synthesis of the biologically active cyclotide kalata B1 (9, figure 4) based on Fmoc/t-Bu solid phase synthesis and on the use of an innovative linker...

Anisotropic Multipolar Exchange Interactions in Systems with Strong Spin-Orbit Coupling

description: We introduce a theoretical framework for computaions of anisotropic multipolar exchange interactions found in many spin--orbit coupled magnetic systems and propose a method to extract these coupling constants using a density functional total energy calculation. This method is developed using a multipolar expansion of local density matrices for correlated orbitals that are responsible for magnetic degrees of freedom. Within the mean--field approximation, we show that each coupling constant can be recovered from a series of total energy calculations via what we call the ``pair--flip'' technique. This technique flips the relative phase of a pair of multipoles and computes corresponding total energy cost associated with the given exchange constant. To test it, we apply our method to Uranium Dioxide, which is a system known to have pseudospin $J=1$ superexchange induced dipolar, and superexchange plus spin--lattice induced quadrupolar orderings. Our calculation reveals that the superexchange and spin--lattice contributions to the quadrupolar exchange interactions are about the same order with ferro-- and antiferro--magnetic contributions, respectively. This highlights a competition rather than a cooperation between them. Our method could be a promising tool to explore magnetic properties of rare--earth compounds and hidden--order materials.

description: We present the analysis of three faint clusters of the Small Magellanic Cloud RZ82, HW42 and RZ158. We employed the SOAR telescope instrument SAM with adaptive optics, allowing us to reach to V~23-24 mag, unprecedentedly, a depth sufficient to measure ages of up to about 10-12Gyr. All three clusters are resolved to their centres, and the resulting colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) allow us to derive ages of 3.9, 2.6, and 4.8Gyr respectively. These results are significantly younger than previous determinations (7.1, 5.0, and 8.3Gyr, respectively), based on integrated photometry or shallower CMDs. We rule out older ages for these clusters based on deep photometry and statistical isochrone fitting. We also estimate metallicities for the three clusters of [Fe/H]=-0.68, -0.57 and -0.90, respectively. These updated ages and metallicities are in good agreement with the age-metallicity relation for the bulk of SMC clusters. Total cluster masses ranging from ~7-11x10^3Mo were estimated from integrated flux, consistent with masses estimated for other SMC clusters of similar ages. These results reduce the number of SMC clusters known to be older than about 5 Gyr and highlight the need of deep and spatially resolved photometry to determine accurate ages for older, low-luminosity SMC star clusters.

description: We present deep high-resolution ($\sim$50 mas, 8 au) ALMA 0.88 and 1.3 mm continuum observations of the LkCa 15 disk. The emission morphology shows an inner cavity and three dust rings at both wavelengths, but with slightly narrower rings at the longer wavelength. Along a faint ring at 42 au, we identify two excess emission features at $\sim$10$σ$ significance at both wavelengths: one as an unresolved clump and the other as an extended arc, separated by roughly 120 degrees in azimuth. The clump is unlikely to be a circumplanetary disk (CPD) as the emission peak shifts between the two wavelengths even after accounting for orbital motion. Instead, the morphology of the 42 au ring strongly resembles the characteristic horseshoe orbit produced in planet--disk interaction models, where the clump and the arc trace dust accumulation around Lagrangian points $L_{4}$ and $L_{5}$, respectively. The shape of the 42 au ring, dust trapping in the outer adjacent ring, and the coincidence of the horseshoe ring location with a gap in near-IR scattered light, are all consistent with the scenario of planet sculpting, with the planet likely having a mass between those of Neptune and Saturn. We do not detect point-like emission associated with a CPD around the putative planet location ($0.''27$ in projected separation from the central star at a position angle of $\sim$60\degr), with upper limits of 70 and 33 $μ$Jy at 0.88 and 1.3 mm, respectively, corresponding to dust mass upper limits of 0.02--0.03 $M_{\oplus}$.

description: Object recognition in the video sequence or images is one of the sub-field of computer vision. Moving object recognition from a video sequence is an appealing topic with applications in various areas such as airport safety, intrusion surveillance, video monitoring, intelligent highway, etc. Moving object recognition is the most challenging task in intelligent video surveillance system. In this regard, many techniques have been proposed based on different methods. Despite of its importance, moving object recognition in complex environments is still far from being completely solved for low resolution videos, foggy videos, and also dim video sequences. All in all, these make it necessary to develop exceedingly robust techniques. This paper introduces multiple moving object recognition in the video sequence based on LoG Gabor-PCA approach and Angle based distance Similarity measures techniques used to recognize the object as a human, vehicle etc. Number of experiments are conducted for indoor and outdoor video sequences of standard datasets and also our own collection of video sequences comprising of partial night vision video sequences. Experimental results show that our proposed approach achieves an excellent recognition rate. Results obtained are satisfactory and competent.

description: The electrical performance of a tunnel field-effect transistor depends critically on the band offset at their semiconductor heterojunction interface. Historically, it has been difficult to experimentally determine how the electronic bands align at the heterojunction interface. We report here on experimental methods to ascertain a complete energy band alignment of a broken-gap tunnel field-effect transistor based on an InAs/GaSb hetero-junction. By using graphene as an optically transparent electrode in a traditional internal photoemission measurement, both the electron and hole barrier heights at the InAs/GaSb interface can be quantified. For a Al2O3/InAs/GaSb layer structure, the barrier height from the top of InAs and GaSb valence band to the bottom of Al2O3 conduction band is inferred from electron emission whereas hole emissions reveal the barrier height from the top of Al2O3 valence band to the bottom of InAs and GaSb conduction band. Subsequently, the offset parameter at the broken gap InAs/GaSb interface is extracted and thus can be used to facilitate the development of predicted model of electron quantum tunneling efficiency and transistor performance.

description: Voyager 1 has explored the solar wind-interstellar medium interaction region between the terminal shock and heliopause following the intensity distribution of galactic cosmic ray protons above 200 MeV energy. Before this component reached the galactic level at 121.7 AU, 4 episodes of rapid intensity change occured similar to the Forbush Decreases found near the sun, rather than the expected result of models related to those describing Long Term Modulation in the inner solar system. Because the mean solar wind flow is both expected and observed to be perpendicular to the radial direction close to the heliopause, explanation is given in terms of transient radial flows related to possible heliopause boundary flapping. It is necessary that radial flows are at the sound speed found for conditions downstream of the teminal shock and that the relevant perpendicular cosmic ray diffusion is controlled by 'slab' field fluctuations accounting for 20 percent or less of the total power in field variance. However, additional radial drift motion related to possible north to south gradients in the magnetic field may allow the inclusion of some diffusion according to 2-D turbulence theory. The required field gradients may arise due to variation in the field carried by the solar plasma deflected away from the solar equatorial plane. Modulation amounting to a total 30 percent drop in galactic intensity requires explanation by a combination of several transient episodes.

description: The faint and ultrafaint dwarf galaxies in the Local Group form the observational bedrock upon which our understanding of small-scale cosmology rests. In order to understand whether this insight generalizes, it is imperative to use resolved-star techniques to discover similarly faint satellites in nearby galaxy groups. We describe our search for ultrafaint galaxies in the M81 group using deep ground-based resolved-star data sets from Subaru's Hyper Suprime-Cam. We present one new ultrafaint dwarf galaxy in the M81 group and identify five additional extremely low surface brightness candidate ultrafaint dwarfs that reach deep into the ultrafaint regime to $M_V \sim -6$ (similar to current limits for Andromeda satellites). These candidates' luminosities and sizes are similar to known Local Group dwarf galaxies Tucana B, Canes Venatici I, Hercules, and Boötes I. Most of these candidates are likely to be real, based on tests of our techniques on blank fields. Intriguingly, all of these candidates are spatially clustered around NGC 3077, which is itself an M81 group satellite in an advanced state of tidal disruption. This is somewhat surprising, as M81 itself and its largest satellite M82 are both substantially more massive than NGC 3077 and by virtue of their greater masses, would have been expected to host as many or more ultrafaint candidates. These results lend considerable support to the idea that satellites of satellites are an important contribution to the growth of satellite populations around Milky Way-mass galaxies.

description: We perform an analysis of the luminosity functions (LFs) of two types of ringed galaxies -- polar-ring galaxies and collisional ring galaxies -- using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Both classes of galaxies were formed as a result of interaction with their environment and they are very rare objects. We constructed LFs of galaxies by different methods and found their approximations by the Schechter function. The luminosity functions of both types of galaxies show a systematic fall-off at low luminosities. The polar structures around bright ($M_r \leq -20^m$) and red ($g-r > +0.8$) galaxies are about twice as common as around blue ones. The LF of collisional rings is shifted towards brighter luminosities compared to polar-ring galaxies. We analysed the published data on the ringed galaxies in several deep fields and confirmed the increase in their volume density with redshift: up to z$\sim$1 their density grows as $(1+z)^m$, where $m \gtrsim 5$.

We measured the column densities of the ions in one of the subcomponents ($v$ = -1600 km s$^{-1}$), which include O I and Fe II. We found the kinetic luminosity of this component to be at most ~2.4% of the quasar's Eddington luminosity. This is near the amount required to contribute to AGN feedback. We also examined the time-variability of a C IV mini-BAL found at $v$ = -8700 km s$^{-1}$, which shows a shallower and narrower absorption feature attached to it in previous SDSS observations from 2000 and 2001, but not in the spectra from 2005 and onwards.

description: Icy grains in the interstellar medium and star-formation regions consist of a variety of materials. Such composite grains interact differently with cosmic-ray (CR) particles compared to simple single-material grains. We aim to calculate the spectra of energies and temperatures of mixed-composition grains undergoing whole-grain heating by CRs. The grains were assumed to consist of a mixture of carbon and olivine, covered by ices consisting of carbon oxides and water. The energy and temperature spectra for grains with radii 0.05; 0.1, and 0.2 microns impacted by CRs were calculated for eight values of column density, relevant to molecular clouds and star-forming cores. The approach takes into account changes in ice thickness and composition with increasing column density. These detailed data for CR interaction with interstellar grains are intended for applications in astrochemical models. The main finding is that the a more accurate approach on grain heat capacity and other factors prevent a frequent heating of 0.1 micron or larger icy grains to high temperatures.

We reveal the evidence for the persisting of the dual universal formula associated with the Hawking-Page (HP) and minimum black hole thermodynamical transition points. Our study unveils the universal properties of the black holes in different statistics, in particular beyond the Gibbs-Boltzmann formalism, and motivates a further promising bridge between the nonextensivity Rényi parameter λ and the cosmological constant ? . Besides, we discover that universal ratios related to horizon radius, Rényi temperature, and entropy can be shown to appear in presence of such a transition.

description: Objective: The aim of the present study was to explore the social process of formulation in talk therapy between young people and clinicians. Design: Qualitative semi-structured interview study. Method: Ten young people (male=6, female=4, age range=16–23 years) and nine clinicians from various disciplines within a youth mental health service were interviewed. Constructivist grounded theory was used for the analysis. Results: Four themes were constructed from the data; a ‘level playing field’ between young person and clinician enables formulation, formulating is a constant process of getting it right and getting it wrong, emotional expression and attunement get us closer to each other and to understanding, and ‘formulation versus diagnosis’ can create tension in the therapy room. The constructivist grounded theory devised demonstrated how the dynamics of power, collaboration, openness, and the therapeutic relationship are constantly in flux during the process of formulation. Conclusion: The paper presents a constructivist grounded theory which incorporates dynamics relating to power, collaboration, and openness. The importance of the therapeutic relationship is also emphasised. The theory encourages continuous and recursive personal reflection by the therapist Practitioner points • Dynamics of power, collaboration, and openness inform the social process of formulation. • The therapeutic relationship acts as a ‘tuning fork’, honing in on the needs of the young person. • Model proposed has scope for use as reflective practice tool in supervision spaces.

In this paper, we establish the partial stochastic dominance result that the cumulative distribution function of the maximum of a multivariate normal random vector, with positive intraclass correlation coefficient, intersects the cumulative distribution function of a standard normal random variable at most once. This result can be applied to the Bayesian design of a clinical trial in which several experimental treatments are compared to a single control.

description: Current workflow on co-editing and simultaneous presentation of 3-D shapes is confined to on-screen manipulation, which causes loss of perceived information when presenting perceptual concepts or complex shapes between members. Thus, we create TeleSHift, a 3-D tangible user interface (TUI) with a telexisting communication framework for group-based collaboration and demonstration. In this work, we present a larger-scaled proof-of-concept prototype providing hands-on operation for shape-based interactions including multi-sided collaboration and one-to-many presentation. In contrast to previous works, we further extend the use of TUIs to support cooperative tasks with telexistence while enabling the linkage of manipulable bits to provide a better user experience and interactivity.

Umgang mit herausforderndem Verhalten von Jugendlichen in der Offenen Jugendarbeit: Eine Orientierungshilfe für Mitarbeitende in der Praxis

description: Das Thema dieser Forschungsarbeit ist der Umgang mit herauforderndem Verhalten von Jugendlichen in der offenen Jugendarbeit (OJA). Die Erkenntnisse der Arbeit bieten eine Orientierungshilfe für Mitarbeitende (MA) in der Praxis. Den Autorinnen Sara Arisci und Stefanie Tinner war es ein Anliegen, nicht das Verhalten von Jugendlichen zu problematisieren. Vielmehr wurde der Fokus auf von MA der OJA subjektiv empfundenen Herausforderungen und ihren Umgang damit gelegt. Ausgangspunkt der Arbeit war das Hausverbot als eine in der OJA mögliche, aber kritisch betrachtete Massnahme (Schmidt, 2013, S. 19). Ziel war daher, ausgehend vom Hausverbot, weitere Handlungsmöglichkeiten zu identifizieren und herauszufinden, wie MA der OJA dadurch kongruent zu ihren Grundhaltungen mit herausfordernden Situationen umgehen können. Dazu wurden in einem ersten Schritt Grundlagen aus der Literatur erarbeitet und aufbauend darauf ein Interviewleitfaden erstellt, mit dem MA aus sechs Einrichtungen der OJA im Kanton Zürich zu ihrem Umgang mit herausforderndem Verhalten auf qualitative Weise befragt wurden. Die Auswertung der Ergebnisse zeigt eine Vielzahl von Handlungsmöglichkeiten, wobei insbesondere der Selbstreflexion und der Reflexion im Team sowie der Beziehungsarbeit und dem Eröffnen von Lernmöglichkeiten eine wichtige Bedeutung zukommt. Anhand der Erkenntnisse aus Literatur und der qualitativen Interviews wurde eine Orientierungshilfe anhand des Wissen-Praxis-Transfermodells nach Husi (2015) erarbeitet. Diese soll MA der OJA ermöglichen, in herausfordernden Situationen möglichst professionell und kongruent zum Auftrag und der Grundhaltung und somit im Sinne der OJA und letztlich ihrer Zielgruppe handeln zu können.

description: Are Germans still pro-Europe? And, even more, may the current behaviour of German Government be called pro-Europe? This work deals with this interesting topic analyz-ing, on one hand, the European policy of German govern-ment, from Adenauer to the current Chancellor Merkel, on the other hand, the European feeling of German citizens. For a long time Europe has been for Germans the only place in which – and through which – it would be possible to re-cover the sovereignty and reunification. To achieve this, Germans would have to be more European than Europe-ans. What did it happen after the reunification? And, more recently, did the economic crisis change German attitude toward Europe? Retracing the political cornerstones of Germany's european membership and then using the Eurobarometer data, comparing the German data to the French and Italian ones, the paper analyses the existing and unquestionably unique link between Germany and Europe.

Topological magnetic textures and long-range orders in Tb-based quasicrystal and approximant

description: The quasicrystal(QC)s have unique lattice structure with the rotational symmetry forbidden in the periodic crystals. The electric properties are far from complete understanding. It has been unresolved whether the magnetic long-range orders are realized in the QC. Here we report our theoretical discovery of the ferromagnetic long-range order in the Tb-based QC. The difficulty in past theoretical studies on the QC was lack of the microscopic theory of the crystalline electric field (CEF), which is crucially important in the rare-earth systems. By analyzing the CEF in the Tb-based QC, we clarify that magnetic anisotropy plays a key role in realizing unique magnetic textures in the Tb-based QC and approximant crystal (AC). By constructing the minimal model, we show that various magnetic textures on the icosahedron at whose vertices Tb atoms are located. We find that the hedgehog state is characterized by the topological charge of one and the whirling-moment state is characterized by unusually large topological charge of three. The hedgehog and whirling-moment states are shown to be realized as antiferromagnetic orders transcribed as the emergent monopole and antimonopole in the 1/1 AC. We find that these states exhibit the topological Hall effect under applied magnetic field accompanied by the topological as well as metamagnetic transition. Our model and the determined phase diagram are expected to be relevant to the broad range of the rare-earth based QCs and ACs with strong magnetic anisotropy, which are useful not only to understand magnetism but also to explore novel topological properties.

Jung Perspektifinden Maskülenlik

description: Son yıllarda eril ve dişil enerji kavramları özellikle sosyal medyada olmak üzere genel toplum içerisinde giderek popülerlik kazanmaktadır. Bu kavramlar hem kadına hem erkeğe atfedilmesinin yanında nesnelere ve ülkelere dahi atfedilir durumdadır. Dolayısıyla bu derleme makalenin amacı, dişil ve eril kavramlarının popülerleşmesi kapsamında analitik psikolojinin kurucusu Carl Gustav Jung'un eril kavramının detaylı olarak ele alınmasıdır. Maskülenlik kavramı, Jung'un kuramında merkezi bir rol oynamaktadır. Jung'a göre, her bireyin içinde hem kadınsı hem de erkeksi nitelikler bulunur ve bu niteliklerin denge içinde olması önemlidir. Animus ve anima arketipleri, bu dengeyi sağlamada önemli bir rol oynar ve bireyin içsel gelişiminde kritik bir öneme sahiptir. Erkeklik arketipleri, bireyin toplumsal rollerini ve kimliğini şekillendirirken, dişil nitelikler de aynı derecede önemlidir. Jung'un perspektifine göre, cinsiyet rolleri esneklik gösterir ve her bireyde farklı şekillerde ifade edilir. Bireyselleşme sürecinde, bireyin içsel çatışmalarını çözmesi ve kadınsı ile erkeksi nitelikleri arasında denge kurması önemlidir. Bu denge, bireyin kendini tam olarak gerçekleştirmesine ve psikolojik olarak sağlıklı bir duruma ulaşmasına yardımcı olur.
