description: THIS work is a study of interaction and change. The central theme is interaction between members of two entirely different cultural groups, Melanesians of New Caledonia and the Europeans with whom they came into· contact between 1774 and 1870. Within this theme the main focus of attention is the impact of culture contact on Melanesian social organization, attitudes and way of life during the period of intensive contact after 1843. The process was reciprocal and to some extent self-generating, since the attitudes and reactions of Europeans to the indigenous society helped determine their actions and policies . The broad process of culture contact between Melanesians and Europeans was the most dramatic, but by no means the only important process of interaction during this period and its course was deeply affected by relationships within as well as between each of the two great cultural groups. Different groups of Melanesians reacted in different ways to the challenge of European encroachment, while the interaction of indigenous groups in the context of culture contact was of profound, if not always discernible, relevance . Similarly, the attitudes , aims, methods and mutual relationships of various categories of European differed, and evoked a variety of Melanesian reactions. Of prime importance in this regard was the relationship after annexation in 1853 between the French colonial authorities and the Roman Catholic missionaries, who had settled in the archipelago ten years earlier. The ramifications of this interaction were far-reaching, especially in the 1860's when a bitter conflict over ecclesiastical jurisdiction and control of Melanesians developed under the administration of an anticlerical governor, Charles Guillain. These considerations determined my mode of approach and the methodology adopted. New Caledonia has been virtually untouched by historians and by all but a few social scientists, and there exist almost no adequate regional or thematic studies on which to base a comprehensive general history. The scope of this work is therefore narrow, but is not for that reason arbitrary.

description: Moving detectors in relativistic quantum field theories reveal the fundamental entangled structure of the vacuum which manifests, for instance, through its thermal character when probed by a uniformly accelerated detector. In this paper, we propose a general formalism inspired both from signal processing and correlation functions of quantum optics to analyze the response of point-like detectors following a generic, non-stationary trajectory. In this context, the Wigner representation of the first-order correlation of the quantum field is a natural time-frequency tool to understand single-detection events. This framework offers a synthetic perspective on the problem of detection in relativistic theory and allows us to analyze various non-stationary situations (adiabatic, periodic) and how excitations and superpositions are deformed by motion. It opens up interesting perspective on the issue of the definition of particles.

description: In 111 BC Emperor Wu of the Former Han dynasty conquered the independent kingdom of Nan-yüeh which was based in the Kuangtung region of modern China and extended south to include Tongking in northern Vietnam. After Wu-ti's conquest, Nan-yüeh was divided into 9 commanderies, one of which - Chiao-chih - was to administer Tongking. This was the beginning of a political and cultural in Tongking which was to last for more than a thousand years. It was the beginning of a long historical and cultural process which eventually produced the Vietnamese state, fiercely independent but culturally orientated towards China.
Cosmological test using the Hubble diagram of high-z quasars

description: It has been known for over three decades that the monochromatic X-ray and UV luminosities in quasars are correlated, though non-linearly. This offers the possibility of using high-z quasars as standard candles for cosmological testing. In this paper, we use a recently assembled, high-quality catalog of 1598 quasars extending all the way to redshift ~6, to compare the predictions of the R_h=ct and LCDM cosmologies. In so doing, we affirm that the parameters characterizing the correlation depend only weakly on the chosen cosmology, and that both models account very well for the data. Unlike LCDM, however, the R_h=ct model has no free parameters for this work, so the Bayesian Information Criterion favours it over LCDM with a relative likelihood of ~88 % versus ~10 %. This result is consistent with the outcome of other comparative tests, many of which have shown that R_h=ct is favoured over the standard model based on a diverse range of observations.

 Material examined. 6 ♀♀, Matsuyama, 14.vi.1954, T. Tachikawa lgt. & det. (ELKU).
 Comments. The above material was incorrectly identified as Ch. phenacocci by TACHIKAWA (1971). The specimens differ from Ch. phenacocci in having all funicle segments longer than wide, the scutellum yellow and the clava shorter than F 2 –F 6. In Ch. phenacocci the funicle segments F 2 –F 3 are almost subquadrate and F 4 slightly longer than width. We therefore removed this species from the list of Japanese encyrtids. The true identity of the specimens remains unresolved.

Can non-minimal coupling restore the consistency condition in bouncing universes?

description: An important property of the three-point functions generated in the early universe is the so-called consistency condition. According to the condition, in the squeezed limit wherein the wavenumber of one of the three modes (constituting the triangular configuration of wavevectors) is much smaller than the other two, the three-point functions can be completely expressed in terms of the two-point functions. It is found that, while the consistency condition is mostly satisfied by the primordial perturbations generated in the inflationary scenario, it is often violated in the bouncing models. The validity of the consistency condition in the context of inflation can be attributed to the fact that the amplitude of the scalar and tensor perturbations freeze on super-Hubble scales. Whereas, in the bouncing scenarios, the amplitude of the scalar and tensor perturbations often grow rapidly as one approaches the bounce, leading to a violation of the condition. In this work, with the help of a specific example involving the tensor perturbations, we explicitly show that suitable non-minimal couplings can restore the consistency condition even in the bouncing models. We briefly discuss the implications of the result.

description: Objective: Risky driving behaviors among adolescents, such as riding with a drinking or impaired driver (RWID) or driving while under the influence (DUI) of alcohol or drugs, are significant public health concerns. Few studies have examined associations of RWID and DUI with future substance use and problems after controlling for baseline substance use. Given that the DUI/RWDD event may be a teachable moment to prevent future consequences (e.g., when injured or arrested), it is important to understand how this risk behavior relates to subsequent use and problems. This study therefore examined characteristics of adolescents who reported DUI and RWID and assessed their risk of future alcohol and marijuana use and consequences 6 months later. Methods: Participants were 668 adolescents aged 12 to 18 (inclusive) recruited at 1 of 4 primary care clinics in Pittsburgh and Los Angeles as part of a larger randomized controlled trial. They completed surveys about their health behaviors at baseline and 6 months after baseline. We examined baseline characteristics of adolescents who reported DUI and RWID and then assessed whether past-year DUI and RWID at baseline were associated with alcohol and marijuana use and consequences 6 months after baseline. Results: Fifty-eight percent of participants were female, 56% were Hispanic, 23% were Black, 14% were White, 7% were multiethnic or other, and the average age was 16 years (SD = 1.9). At baseline, participants who reported RWID or DUI were more likely to be older, report past-year use of alcohol and marijuana, and more likely to have an alcohol use disorder or cannabis use disorder versus those who did not report RWID or DUI, respectively. At 6-month follow-up and after controlling for baseline demographics and baseline alcohol use, RWID was associated with more frequent drinking episodes in the past 3 months and greater number of drinks in the past month when they drank heavily. DUI at baseline was associated with more frequent heavy drinking episodes and alcohol and marijuana consequences 6 months later. Conclusions: RWID and DUI are significantly associated with greater alcohol and marijuana use over time. This study highlights that teens may be at higher risk for problem substance use in the future even if they ride with someone who is impaired. Prevention and intervention efforts for adolescents need to address both driving under the influence and riding with an impaired driver to prevent downstream consequences.
Relationship between Electronic and Geometric Structures of the O/Cu(001) System

description: The electronic structure of the $(2\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{2})R45^{\circ}$ O/Cu(001) system has been calculated using locally self-consistent, real space multiple scattering technique based on first principles. Oxygen atoms are found to perturb differentially the long-range Madelung potentials, and hence the local electronic subbands at neighboring Cu sites. As a result the hybridization of the oxygen electronic states with those of its neighbors leads to bonding of varying ionic and covalent mix. Comparison of results with those for the c(2x2) overlayer shows that the perturbation is much stronger and the Coulomb lattice energy much higher for it than for the $(2\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{2})R45^{\circ}$ phase. The main driving force for the 0.5ML oxygen surface structure formation on Cu(001) is thus the long-range Coulomb interaction which also controls the charge transfer and chemical binding in the system.

Pollution and economic activity : a theoretical study

Subjects: subject: Pollution
subject: Economic development

description: This thesis is a theoretical investigation of the basic relationships between pollution and economic activity. The study considers both the positive and normative economic aspects of the pollution problem, although more attention is paid to the latter. Or major interest is the relationship between pollution and economic growth. The main body of the thesis commences with an analysis of an uncontrolled economy. Here we are interested in the stability characteristics of the growth process. From the stability of uncontrolled systems we turn to the optimality of controlled systems. Employing Pontryagin's Maximum Principle we analyse the optimal control of economic activity over time. Initially we consider the control of pollution in the absence of economic growth. The joint problems of optimal investment and pollution control are then considered. In order to better examine the general equilibrium nature of the pollution problem we consider a two sector model.

description: The Venusian atmosphere is covered by clouds with super-rotating winds whose accelerating mechanism is still not well understood. The fastest winds, occurring at the cloud tops ($\sim$70 km height), have been studied for decades thanks to their visual contrast in dayside ultraviolet images. The middle clouds ($\sim$50-55 km) can be observed at near-infrared wavelengths (800-950 nm), although with very low contrast. Here we present the first extensive analysis of their morphology and motions at lower latitudes along 2016 with 900-nm images from the IR1 camera onboard Akatsuki. The middle clouds exhibit hemispherical asymmetries every 4-5 days, sharp discontinuities in elongated "hook-like" stripes, and large contrasts (3-21%) probably associated with large changes in the optical thickness. Zonal winds obtained with IR1 images and with ground-based observations reveal mean zonal winds peaking at the equator, while their combination with Venus Express unveils long-term variations of 20 m s$^{-1}$ along 10 years.

description: We performed Monte Carlo simulations to calculate the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) temperature $T_{BKT}$ for the two-dimensional planar rotator model in the presence of nonmagnetic impurity concentration $(ρ)$. As expected, our calculation shows that the BKT temperature decreases as the spin vacancies increase. There is a critical dilution $ρ_c \approx 0.3$ at which $T_{BKT} =0$. The effective interaction between a vortex-antivortex pair and a static nonmagnetic impurity is studied analytically. A simple phenomenological argument based on the pair-impurity interaction is proposed to justify the simulations.

description: The Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) formulation is a powerful tool to model multi-agent coordination problems that are distributed by nature. The formulation is suitable for problems where variables are discrete and constraint utilities are represented in tabular form. However, many real-world applications have variables that are continuous and tabular forms thus cannot accurately represent constraint utilities. To overcome this limitation, researchers have proposed the Functional DCOP (F-DCOP) model, which are DCOPs with continuous variables. But existing approaches usually come with some restrictions on the form of constraint utilities and are without quality guarantees. Therefore, in this paper, we (i) propose exact algorithms to solve a specific subclass of F-DCOPs; (ii) propose approximation methods with quality guarantees to solve general F-DCOPs; and (iii) empirically show that our algorithms outperform existing state-of-the-art F-DCOP algorithms on randomly generated instances when given the same communication limitations.

description: It has been suggested that a $ν$p process can occur when hot, dense, and proton-rich matter is expanding within a strong flux of anti-neutrinos. In such an environment, proton-rich nuclides can be produced in sequences of proton captures and (n,p) reactions, where the free neutrons are created in situ by $\overlineν_\mathrm{e}+\mathrm{p} \rightarrow \mathrm{n}+\mathrm{e}^+$ reactions. The detailed hydrodynamic evolution determines where the nucleosynthesis path turns off from N = Z line and how far up the nuclear chart it runs. In this work, the uncertainties on the final isotopic abundances stemming from uncertainties in the nuclear reaction rates were investigated in a large-scale Monte Carlo approach, simultaneously varying ten thousand reactions. A large range of model conditions was investigated because a definitive astrophysical site for the $ν$p process has not yet been identified. The present parameter study provides, for each model, identification of the key nuclear reactions dominating the uncertainty for a given nuclide abundance. As all rates appearing in the $ν$p process involve unstable nuclei, and thus only theoretical rates are available, the final abundance uncertainties are larger than those for nucleosynthesis processes closer to stability. Nevertheless, most uncertainties remain below a factor of three in trajectories with robust nucleosynthesis. More extreme conditions allow production of heavier nuclides but show larger uncertainties because of the accumulation of the uncertainties in many rates and because the termination of nucleosynthesis is not at equilibrium conditions. It is also found that the solar ratio of the abundances of ${}^{92}$Mo and ${}^{94}$Mo could be reproduced within uncertainties.

description: A theory of photoluminescence in semiconductor quantum dots is developed which relies on two key ingredients. First, it takes into account non-adiabaticity of the exciton-phonon system. Second, it includes the multimode dielectric model of LO-phonons and of the electron-phonon interaction in confined systems. The role of non-adiabaticity is shown to be of paramount importance in spherical quantum dots, where the lowest one-exciton state can be degenerate or quasi-degenerate. For various quantum dot structures, the calculated intensities of phonon satellites as a function of temperature, excitation energy and size of quantum dots are in a fair agreement with experimental data on photoluminescence.

description: With recent advances in deep learning, considerable attention has been given to achieving automatic speech recognition performance close to human performance on tasks like conversational telephone speech (CTS) recognition. In this paper we evaluate the usefulness of these proposed techniques on broadcast news (BN), a similar challenging task. We also perform a set of recognition measurements to understand how close the achieved automatic speech recognition results are to human performance on this task. On two publicly available BN test sets, DEV04F and RT04, our speech recognition system using LSTM and residual network based acoustic models with a combination of n-gram and neural network language models performs at 6.5% and 5.9% word error rate. By achieving new performance milestones on these test sets, our experiments show that techniques developed on other related tasks, like CTS, can be transferred to achieve similar performance. In contrast, the best measured human recognition performance on these test sets is much lower, at 3.6% and 2.8% respectively, indicating that there is still room for new techniques and improvements in this space, to reach human performance levels.

The large-time behaviour of the one-point function is studied. It is shown that, for any positive temperature, the system shows a dynamical phase transition. The dynamical phase transition is controlled by the rate of spin flip at the boundaries, and is a discontiuous change of the derivative of the relaxation time towards the stationary configuration.

Anomalous Joule law in the adiabatic dynamics of a quantum dot in contact with normal-metal and superconducting reservoirs

description: We formulate a general theory to study the time-dependent charge and energy transport of an adiabatically driven quantum dot in contact with normal and superconducting reservoirs at T=0. This setup is a generalization of a quantum RC circuit, with capacitive components due to Andreev processes and induced pairing fluctuations, in addition to the conventional normal charge fluctuations. The dynamics for the dissipation of energy is ruled by a Joule law for four channels in parallel with the universal Büttiker resistance R0=e2/2h per channel. Two transport channels are associated with the two spin components of the usual charge fluctuations, while the other two are associated with electrons and holes due to pairing fluctuations. The latter leads to an “anomalous” component of the Joule law and takes place with a vanishing net current due to the opposite flows of electrons and holes.

description: We give an exposition of graded and microformal geometry, and the language of $Q$-manifolds. $Q$-manifolds are supermanifolds endowed with an odd vector field of square zero. They can be seen as a non-linear analogue of Lie algebras (in parallel with even and odd Poisson manifolds), a basis of "non-linear homological algebra", and a powerful tool for describing algebraic and geometric structures. This language goes together with that of graded manifolds, which are supermanifolds with an extra $\mathbb{Z}$-grading in the structure sheaf. "Microformal geometry" is a new notion referring to "thick" or "microformal" morphisms, which generalize ordinary smooth maps, but whose crucial feature is that the corresponding pullbacks of functions are nonlinear. In particular, "Poisson thick morphisms" of homotopy Poisson supermanifolds induce $L_{\infty}$-morphisms of homotopy Poisson brackets. There is a quantum version based on special type Fourier integral operators and applicable to Batalin-Vilkovisky geometry. Though the text is mainly expository, some results are new or not published previously.

Here we analyze these by considering mean-field arguments and by mapping the m=1 case of the Barabasi-Albert model into a tree with a depth-dependent branching ratio. This shows the origins of the average distance scaling and allows a demonstration of why the distribution approaches a Gaussian in the limit of N large. The load (betweenness), the number of shortest distance paths passing through any node, is discussed in the tree presentation.

 Comments. In Tachikawa’s collection (ELKU) we found a box containing some 33 specimens (7 ♀♀, Hokkaido, Mt. You, Alkan Nat. Park, 25.vi.1958, Y. Murakami lgt.) labelled as Litomastix claviger Mercet, 1921. This species was synonymized with Copidosoma thebe by GUERRIERI & NOYES (2005). However, the specimens examined by us did not belong to C. thebe and more closely resembled C. cyaneum Hoffer, 1970 and C. zdeneki Guerrieri & Noyes, 2005 and therefore we excluded the possible record of C. thebe from the list of Japanese fauna.

description: Der Beitrag entwickelt eine Bestimmung des Zusammenhangs von Technik und Wissen im Rahmen der Habermas’schen Theorie des kommunikativen Handelns, wobei der Unterschied zwischen praktischem und diskursivem Wissen im Mittelpunkt steht. Als Instrumentarium zur Analyse historisch spezifischer Fälle technischen Handelns stütze ich mich auf die Anwendung von ,Operationsketten‘ und wende sie auf das Verzieren von Bronze- und Kupferobjekten an. Hierzu dienen zwei Beispiele, das eine ethnoarchäologisch und aus der heutigen Südost-Türkei, das andere archäologisch und aus dem eisenzeitlichen Urartu in Ost-Anatolien. Die Analyse ergibt in beiden Fällen, dass praktisches Wissen in Form von Augenmaß im Ablauf der Produktion eine wichtige Rolle spielt. Konsequenzen für die Strukturierung der technischen Kooperation werden erörtert.

description: Ghana, with its 92,100 square miles, occupies only 0.8 per cent of the area of Africa and 0,2 per cent of that of the world. It lies almost half way between Dakar in Senegal and Cameroon on the coast of the Gulf of Guinea, and from the southernmost point at latitude 4°44' North it extends for a distance of over 400 miles to latitude 11°10' North. The extreme western and eastern points stretch as far as longitudes 3015! West and 1°12- East. The sea coast is about 344 miles and international boundaries extend for 1,280 miles. Upper Volta, Togo and Ivory Coast are her northern, eastern and western neighbours respectively.

Masses of globular clusters

description: Central velocity dispersions have been derived for 10 globular clusters from high dispersion (6.7A mm-1) coude spectra of the integrated light. Two methods were used. The first involved the comparison of the cluster spectra with star spectra convolved with an appropriate velocity distribution function. This is the method used often for velocity dispersion determinations from spectra of the integrated light of galaxies (e.g. Morton and Chevalier 1972). Fourier techniques were used in the second method. Power spectra were obtained from the Fourier transformed spectral-intensity data of both the stars and the clusters. The star power spectra were multiplied by the transformed velocity distribution function and compared with the cluster power spectra. The advantages accruing from use of the Fourier method over the direct comparison method are (1) use of much more of the information contained in the original spectra; (2) greater accuracy arising from the increased sensitivity to changes in the velocity dispersion and (J) lessening of the necessity for critical local matching in the star - cluster line strengths. Surface density distributions have been derived from photoelectric surface photometry (using centered apertures and small aperture drifts across the cluster) and from star counts. These surface density distributions were then compared with the theoretical distributions given by King (1966a). These theoretical surface density distributions are derived from self-consistent single mass models using a realistic velocity distribution function. Two characteristic lengths, the core radius rc and the tidal cutoff rt, obtained from the comparison of the theoretical and observed surface density distributions are then usBd, along with the velocity dispersion, to derive masses for the 10 clusters. For comparison, masses are also derived by the r 1/4 law/virial theorem method. The mass-to-light ratio is obtained and the form of the luminosity function in globular clusters is discussed.

description: Der vorliegende Beitrag widmet sich in erster Linie der Untersuchung eines mittelbronzezeitlichen Schwertes aus den „Marais de Nantes“ in Frankreich, wobei seine seltene Verzierung mit Metalleinlagen im Mittelpunkt der Betrachtungen steht. Diese auch als Tauschierungen bezeichneten Zierelemente dienten ausschließlich der farblichen Kontrastierung von Metallobjekten und werden hier besonders vom Standpunkt der Herstellungstechnik aus beleuchtet. Aufgrund technischer und stilistischer Vergleiche wird das Schwert in Beziehung zu älteren und zeitgleichen bronzezeitlichen Tauschierarbeiten aus dem Gebiet nördlich der Alpen sowie dem Mittelmeerraum gesetzt und ein möglicher Technologietransfer erörtert.

description: Im Rahmen des Forschungsprojekts Reiterkrieger – Burgenbauer: die frühen Ungarn und das ‚Deutsche Reich‘ vom 9. bis zum 11. Jahrhundert wurden an Funden frühungarischer Silberwaren des 10. Jahrhunderts minimalinvasive chemische Legierungsanalysen durchgeführt. Anhand einer stichprobenartigen Gegenüberstellung von Schmucksilber aus Grab 595 und Münzen aus Grab 100 von Szeged-Kiskundorozsma wurde die Frage diskutiert, ob die untersuchten Silbermünzen dieses Fundortes ohne weitere Veränderung der Legierung zur Herstellung der dort gefundenen silbernen Beschläge zu verwenden gewesen wären. Die Analysen zeigten, dass die Mehrzahl der Münzen sich deutlich von den Beschlägen unterscheidet, jedoch eine Prägung Hugos von Provence große Ähnlichkeiten mit drei Objekten aufweist und als Ausgangsmaterial für deren Herstellung hätte dienen können.

description: We examine the relationship between a number of long gamma-ray burst (lGRB) properties (isotropic emitted energy, luminosity, intrinsic duration, jet opening angle) and redshift. We find that even when accounting for conservative detector flux limits, there appears to be a significant correlation between isotropic equivalent energy and redshift, suggesting cosmological evolution of the lGRB progenitor. Analyzing a sub-sample of lGRBs with jet opening angle estimates, we find the beaming-corrected lGRB emitted energy does not correlate with redshift, but jet opening angle does. Additionally, we find a statistically significant anti-correlation between the intrinsic prompt duration and redshift, even when accounting for potential selection effects. We also find that - for a given redshift - isotropic energy is positively correlated with intrinsic prompt duration. None of these GRB properties appear to be correlated with galactic offset. From our selection-effect-corrected redshift distribution, we estimate a co-moving rate density for lGRBs, and compare this to the global cosmic star formation rate (SFR). We find the lGRB rate mildly exceeds the global star formation rate between a redshift of 3 and 5, and declines rapidly at redshifts above this (although we cannot constrain the lGRB rate above a redshift of about 6 due to sample incompleteness). We find the lGRB rate diverges significantly from the SFR at lower redshifts. We discuss both the correlations and lGRB rate density in terms of various lGRB progenitor models and their apparent preference for low-metallicity environments.

description: Die Annäherung an die Leitbegriffe der Tagung Raum, Gabe und Erinnerung wird im Beitrag anhand der besonderen sozialen Praxis im Umgang mit Objekten, nämlich ihrer Niederlegung versucht. Insbesondere die Gabe kann einen vielversprechenden Einstieg in die Diskussion um Prozesse des Erinnerns gewähren. Gleichwohl werfen die Deponierungen aufgrund ihrer meist nur schütteren Überlieferung stets Fragen nach der Repräsentativität des Quellenbildes und der davon abgeleiteten Deutungen auf. Die folgenden Betrachtungen widmen sich möglichen Kontinuitäten im neolithischen und bronzezeitlichen Deponierungsgeschehen und versuchen auszuloten, inwieweit sich im Quellenbild anhand von räumlichen Kontinuitäten Prozesse des Erinnerns zu erkennen geben.
