description: Zimpherus Miller and Wheeler, new genus  (Figs. 1–7)
 Type Species. Zimpherus nancae Miller and Wheeler, new species, by present designation.
 Diagnosis. This species is diagnosed within Bidessini by: 1) a transverse occipital line on the head absent (Fig. 1); 2) the anterior clypeal margin unmodified (Fig. 1); 3) a transverse carina across the elytral epipleuron at the humeral angle absent (Fig. 1); 4) basal elytral stria present (Fig. 1); 5) elytral sutural stria absent (Fig. 1); 6) the elytron without rows of punctures (Fig. 1); 7) the median lobe of the male aedeagus apically extremely complex (Figs. 2, 3); and 8) the lateral lobes of the male aedeagus with two segments and apically rounded (Fig. 4). The genus is similar to Uvarus, but differs in the body shape and the shape of the male aedeagus. The overall body shape of Zimpherus specimens is narrow and anteriorly narrowed with the head somewhat deflexed ventrad and the lateral outline distinctly discontinuous between the pronotum and elytron (Fig. 1). The body shape in Uvarus specimens is broadly to elongate oval and the lateral outline is approximately continuous between the pronotum and elytron. The median lobe is apically multifurcated and multilobed in Zimpherus (Figs. 2, 3), and the lateral lobe is broad with the apex rounded, without a small, curved, tooth–shaped apical lobe (Fig. 4). A simple, evenly curved male median apical lobe is characteristic of Uvarus. The male median lobe of members of Microdessus is also apically divided into multiple lobes (four), but Microdessus species are very small (∼ 1.5 mm), do not have an unusually offset metatrochanter, and are not overall uniquely shaped as are Zimpherus specimens. Microdessus species are somewhat flattened dorsoventrally and elongate oval with the lateral margins continuously curved.
 Etymology. The genus is named in honor of Nancy Zimpher, Chancellor of the State University of New York.
 Discussion. This genus bears similarity with both Uvarus and Microdessus in its basic character combination but differs from each (see Diagnosis). Nevertheless, it is not without some misgivings that the new species described here is placed within a new genus given the expanding number of genera in the tribe.

description: The origin of neutrino flux observed in IceCube is still mainly unknown. Typically two flux components are assumed, namely: atmospheric neutrinos and an unknown astrophysical term. In principle the latter could also contain a top-down contribution coming for example from decaying dark matter. In this case one should also expect prompt and secondary gammas as well. This leads to the possibility of a multimessenger analysis based on the simultaneous comparison of the Dark Matter hypothesis both with neutrino and high energy gamma rays data. In this paper, we analyze, for different decaying Dark Matter channels, the 7.5 years IceCube HESE data, and compare the results with previous exclusion limits coming from Fermi data. Finally, we test whether the Dark Matter hypothesis could be further scrutinised by using forthcoming high energy gamma rays experiments.

description: Over the past thirty years, there has been considerable progress in the design of natural language interfaces to databases. Most of this work has concerned snapshot databases, in which there are only limited facilities for manipulating time-varying information. The database community is becoming increasingly interested in temporal databases, databases with special support for time-dependent entries. We have developed a framework for constructing natural language interfaces to temporal databases, drawing on research on temporal phenomena within logic and linguistics. The central part of our framework is a logic-like formal language, called TOP, which can capture the semantics of a wide range of English sentences. We have implemented an HPSG-based sentence analyser that converts a large set of English queries involving time into TOP formulae, and have formulated a provably correct procedure for translating TOP expressions into queries in the TSQL2 temporal database language. In this way we have established a sound route from English to a general-purpose temporal database language.

A Critical Race Narrative Analysis of New York City Early Childhood Teachers' Constructions of Teacher Certification and Teaching Quality

description: Growing national attention to the importance of early childhood education (ECE) has led many cities and states to abandon debates pertaining to whether and for whom Pre-Kindergarten (PK) should be available in favor of the establishment of Universal PK (UPK). UPK programs have been framed as an investment in human capital to improve standards and performance and achieve economic payoffs that will afford high returns on investment—improving future employment, lowering rates of incarceration, etc. Such an investment narrative is predicated on high-quality UPK programs; this has meant that in New York City (NYC), UPK teachers were expected to be certified by New York State. Situating my study within the growing educational research literature on the problems with teacher certification tests, which found that such tests disadvantage Teachers of Color, this qualitative study employed critical race theory to examine the racialization of teacher certification test success and failure, combining three individual life history interviews, a critical participatory focus group, and dyad. Through interviews, it sought to understand how ECE teachers of Color in NYC conceptualized teaching quality within the context of institutional discourses and official definitions of teaching quality. Employing critical narrative analysis, I attended to the interplay between policy discourses and personal lived experiences via conversational narratives recounting their experiences of licensure test failure, inquiring into how they negotiated institutional definitions of qualified teacher with their own understandings and lived experiences pertaining to teacher qualification. Focus groups served as sites for the co-creation of counter-narratives to the institutional narrative of teacher licensure indexing teacher quality. Findings point toward how current policy conceptions of teacher quality as teacher licensure gives continuation to a long history of teacher licensure tests being used as a racist tool to protect whiteness in the teaching profession. This is particularly problematic in light of the growing majority of young children in today’s early childhood classrooms combined with the proven benefits children of Color have from having Teachers of Color. As such, implications point toward the need to disentangle conceptualizations of teacher quality and qualification from teacher licensure testing.

description: How can university departments enhance the employability of their graduates in archaeology? What do employers want from those graduates, how can university departments ensure that their graduates have the best opportunities and how can this enable archaeology to be a truly meritocratic profession?
This guide, aimed at both teachers and learners, seeks to explore the debate in the role of higher educational institutions (HEIs) in preparing people for professional life: the tension between delivery of discipline specific knowledge and skills, and broader development of critical and analytical skills, precariously balanced against the demand from employers for field-ready archaeologists.

description: The high-resolution photoabsorption spectrum of O2 below the O 1sσ−1 ionization threshold has been reanalyzed by using a sophisticated fit approach. For the vibrational substates of the O 1sσ−1u(4∑−u)3sσg(3∑−u) Rydberg state Fano lineshapes are observed indicating an interaction with the O 1sσ−1g(4∑−g)3σ∗u(3∑−u) core-to-valence excited state. In the angularly resolved ion-yield spectrum recorded at 90° relative to the polarization direction of the synchrotron radiation clear evidence for the O 1sσ−1g(2∑−g)3σ∗u(3∑−u) and the O 1sσ−1u(2∑−u)3sσg(3∑−u) state was found. This observation clearly suggests thatΛ, the projection of total orbital angular momentum on the molecular axis, is not well separated in the angularly resolved ion-yield spectrum due to a partial breakdown of the axial-recoil approximation for these transitions.

A Critical Assessment of the Preservation of Charleston Cottages in Charleston, South Carolina
Creators: Crowley, Jason
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2013
Subjects: Cultural property--Protection

description: Charleston Cottages, often referred to as Freedman’s Cottages (due to the large numbers of newly freed African Americans who supposedly inhabited the cottages after the end of the Civil War) are a small uniquely-­‐Charleston vernacular building type. The typical size being less than 1,200 square feet, Charleston Cottages are one room wide and two or three rooms deep. The cottages are often considered functionally insufficient by modern American cultural standards. Due to their small size, location in economically depressed neighborhoods, and lack of proper documentation and protective preservation ordinances, Charleston Cottages are continuously being demolished due to neglect and redevelopment. Along with demolition, unsympathetic and improper renovations are removing significant architectural features and overwhelming the massing of the historic structures with out-­‐of-­‐scale additions. This thesis assesses the architectural and cultural significance of Charleston Cottages, providing an analysis and critique of current policies and preservation programs in Charleston that affect preservation of the threatened building type. The policies and programs advocating the preservation of shotgun cottages in the city of New Orleans, Louisiana are utilized as a comparative case study. The case study is used as tool to find examples of how the vernacular building type of similar scale and age has been documented and promoted as significant to the development of a city. Through investigating issues and providing recommendations, this thesis explores how the local stakeholders can establish a plan establishing better preservation of Charleston Cottages.

description: We present the Cell-based Maximum Entropy (CME) approximants in E3 space by constructing the smooth approximation distance function to polyhedral surfaces. CME is a meshfree approximation method combining the properties of the Maximum Entropy approximants and the compact support of element-based interpolants. The method is evaluated in problems of large strain elastodynamics for three-dimensional (3D) continua using the well-established Meshless Total Lagrangian Explicit Dynamics (MTLED) method. The accuracy and efficiency of the method is assessed in several numerical examples in terms of computational time, accuracy in boundary conditions imposition, and strain energy density error. Due to the smoothness of CME basis functions, the numerical stability in explicit time integration is preserved for large time step. The challenging task of essential boundary conditions imposition in non-interpolating meshless methods (e.g., Moving Least Squares) is eliminated in CME due to the weak Kronecker-delta property. The essential boundary conditions are imposed directly, similar to the Finite Element Method. CME is proven a valuable alternative to other meshless and element-based methods for large-scale elastodynamics in 3D.

description: Coalition formation is a key topic in multiagent systems. One would prefer a coalition structure that maximizes the sum of the values of the coalitions, but often the number of coalition structures is too large to allow exhaustive search for the optimal one. But then, can the coalition structure found via a partial search be guaranteed to be within a bound from optimum? We show that none of the previous coalition structure generation algorithms can establish any bound because they search fewer nodes than a threshold that we show necessary for establishing a bound. We present an algorithm that establishes a tight bound within this minimal amount of search, and show that any other algorithm would have to search strictly more. The fraction of nodes needed to be searched approaches zero as the number of agents grows. If additional time remains, our anytime algorithm searches further, and establishes a progressively lower tight bound. Surprisingly, just searching one more node drops the bound in half. As desired, our algorithm lowers the bound rapidly early on, and exhibits diminishing returns to computation. It also drastically outperforms its obvious contenders. Finally, we show how to distribute the desired search across self-interested manipulative agents.

description: Numerical weather prediction (NWP) models require ever-growing computing time/resources, but still, have difficulties with predicting weather extremes. Here we introduce a data-driven framework that is based on analog forecasting (prediction using past similar patterns) and employs a novel deep learning pattern-recognition technique (capsule neural networks, CapsNets) and impact-based auto-labeling strategy. CapsNets are trained on mid-tropospheric large-scale circulation patterns (Z500) labeled $0-4$ depending on the existence and geographical region of surface temperature extremes over North America several days ahead. The trained networks predict the occurrence/region of cold or heat waves, only using Z500, with accuracies (recalls) of $69\%-45\%$ $(77\%-48\%)$ or $62\%-41\%$ $(73\%-47\%)$ $1-5$ days ahead. CapsNets outperform simpler techniques such as convolutional neural networks and logistic regression. Using both temperature and Z500, accuracies (recalls) with CapsNets increase to $\sim 80\%$ $(88\%)$, showing the promises of multi-modal data-driven frameworks for accurate/fast extreme weather predictions, which can augment NWP efforts in providing early warnings.

description: We investigate the $η\bar{K}K^*$ three body system in order to look for possible $I^G(J^{PC})=0^+(1^{-+})$ exotic states in the framework of the fixed center approximation to the Faddeev equation. We assume the scattering of $η$ on a clusterized system $\bar{K}K^*$, which is known to generate the $f_1(1285)$, or a $\bar{K}$ on a clusterized system $ηK^*$, which is shown to generate the $K_1(1270)$. In the case of the $η$-$(\bar{K}K^*)_{f_1(1285)}$ scattering, we find evidence of a bound state $I^G(J^{PC})=0^+(1^{-+})$ below the $η{f_1(1285)}$ threshold with mass around 1700 MeV and width about 180 MeV. Considering the $\bar{K}$-$(ηK^*)_{K_1(1270)}$ scattering, we obtain a bound state $I(J^{P})=0(1^{-})$ just below the $\bar{K}{K_1(1270)}$ threshold with a mass around 1680 MeV and a width about 160 MeV.

description: We define the geometric thickness of a graph to be the smallest number of layers such that we can draw the graph in the plane with straight-line edges and assign each edge to a layer so that no two edges on the same layer cross. The geometric thickness lies between two previously studied quantities, the (graph-theoretical) thickness and the book thickness. We investigate the geometric thickness of the family of complete graphs, K_n. We show that the geometric thickness of K_n lies between ceiling((n/5.646) + 0.342) and ceiling(n/4), and we give exact values of the geometric thickness of K_n for n <= 12 and n in {15,16}. We also consider the geometric thickness of the family of complete bipartite graphs. In particular, we show that, unlike the case of complete graphs, there are complete bipartite graphs with arbitrarily large numbers of vertices for which the geometric thickness coincides with the standard graph-theoretical thickness.

description: This thesis explores the performance practice of three major works involving piano composed by Olivier Messiaen between 1940 and 1944. These are considered through a descriptive analysis of historic commercial recordings that are known to have been directly influenced by the composer, a survey of existing interview material and secondary sources, and interviews with selected leading exponents of Messiaen’s piano music. Many issues of interest are apparent in the historic recordings analysed. Some involve factors not accorded detail in the score, others depart from instructions in the score, and some appear to be permanently intended changes to the published score. This suggests that a well informed performance practice of this music requires consideration of many elements that extend beyond the instructions in the printed score. Comparisons of recordings by pianists who studied the Vingt Regards sur l’Enfant-Jésus with Messiaen, or with his primary exponent Yvonne Loriod, reveal that their approaches diverged in some significant ways on the playing of this solo work, but to a much lesser extent when playing Visions de l’Amen or the Quatuor pour la fin du Temps. This suggests that at some point Loriod began to perform and teach Vingt Regards sur l’Enfant-Jésus in a more independent way, while Messiaen remained a guiding figure in rehearsals and recordings of the ensemble works. As a result, appropriate interpretation of Vingt Regards sur l’Enfant-Jésus may require consideration of the performances of pianists who worked on the repertoire directly with the composer. It is also evident that Messiaen genuinely intended the very slow tempi in certain movements of the works studied, and that he encouraged full use of these tempi in performance.

description: Quantum computing is expected to provide new promising approaches for solving the most challenging problems in material science, communication, search, machine learning and other domains. However, due to the decoherence and gate imperfection errors modern quantum computer systems are characterized by a very complex, dynamical, uncertain and fluctuating computational environment. We develop an autonomous agent effectively interacting with such an environment to solve magnetism problems. By using the reinforcement learning the agent is trained to find the best-possible approximation of a spin Hamiltonian ground state from self-play on quantum devices. We show that the agent can learn the entanglement to imitate the ground state of the quantum spin dimer. The experiments were conducted on quantum computers provided by IBM. To compensate the decoherence we use local spin correction procedure derived from a general sum rule for spin-spin correlation functions of a quantum system with even number of antiferromagnetically-coupled spins in the ground state. Our study paves a way to create a new family of the neural network eigensolvers for quantum computers.

description: All possible Lie bialgebra structures on the harmonic oscillator algebra are explicitly derived and it is shown that all of them are of the coboundary type. A non-standard quantum oscillator is introduced as a quantization of a triangular Lie bialgebra, and a universal $R$-matrix linked to this new quantum algebra is presented.

description: Green leafy vegetables are essential components of a balanced diet, rich in vital vitamins and minerals. However, concerns arise from the potential contamination of both imported and locally grown green leafy vegetables, making them a primary source of foodborne pathogens. Contamination can result from various factors, including the use of natural organic fertilizers, tainted irrigation water, direct exposure to livestock, wild animals, and birds, as well as inadequate food handler hygiene practices. This contamination poses a significant risk of entero-pathogenic infections, particularly from pathogens such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella.

Escherichia coli encompasses a range of strains, with most being nonpathogenic and naturally occurring in the intestinal tracts of animals, including humans. However, certain strains, such as O157:H7, produce potent toxins that can cause severe intestinal damage, leading to life-threatening conditions. Salmonella, on the other hand, represents a group of bacteria responsible for Salmonella infection, leading to various intestinal illnesses, including typhoid fever, food poisoning, gastroenteritis, and enteric fever

The subject/object distinction in mystical experiencing
Creators: name: Gray, Frances Marie
Publisher: name: The Australian National University

description: For human beings, consciousness is that which determines and constitutes the content, order and form of all of our experience. It is consciousness which generates our awareness as our own. Both experience and awareness provide the ontological basis to all that is possible for us. The conscious experience that we have - our thoughts, our feelings, our being aware of our existence in the world and our behaviour- either as isolatable goings-on, or in a more general everyday sense, can be divided into the rational and the intuitive. This is a rough division only, and is meant to represent the mediating or non-mediating role which consciousness plays in our experience, in terms of the structures which consciousness imposes to constitute the experience as it is. Generally speaking, rational experience is that which is bounded and constructed by the constraints of logic and language. Rational experience provides the framework within which nearly all of our thinking and behaving is manifested. At a very basic level this is seen in the simple stimulus/response mechanism with which we are all very familiar.(For example, when we are hungry, we know that the hunger can be satisfied by eating.) At a more sophisticated level, it is manifested in the complicated mental processes we might go through in order to solve a mathematical problem…
Lepton scattering from $^{40}$Ar and $^{48}$Ti in the quasielastic peak region

description: Neutron and proton spectral functions of $^{40}$Ar, $^{40}$Ca, and $^{48}$Ti isotopes are computed using the ab initio self-consistent Green's function approach. The resulting radii and charge distributions are in good agreement with available experimental data. The spectral functions of Ar and Ti are then utilized to calculate inclusive ($e$,$e$') cross sections within a factorization scheme and are found to correctly reproduce the recent Jefferson Lab measurements. Based on these successful agreements, the weak charged and neutral current double-differential cross sections for neutrino-$^{40}$Ar scattering are predicted in the quasielastic region. Results obtained by replacing the (experimentally inaccessible) neutron spectral distribution of $^{40}$Ar with the (experimentally accessible) proton distribution of $^{48}$Ti are compared and the accuracy of this approximation is assessed.

description: The ability to quickly revoke a compromised key is critical to the security of any public-key infrastructure. Regrettably, most traditional certificate revocation schemes suffer from latency, availability, or privacy problems. These problems are exacerbated by the lack of a native delegation mechanism in TLS, which increasingly leads domain owners to engage in dangerous practices such as sharing their private keys with third parties. We analyze solutions that address the long-standing delegation and revocation shortcomings of the web PKI, with a focus on approaches that directly affect the chain of trust (i.e., the X.509 certification path). For this purpose, we propose a 19-criteria framework for characterizing revocation and delegation schemes. We also show that combining short-lived delegated credentials or proxy certificates with an appropriate revocation system would solve several pressing problems.

description: This dissertation investigates the relationship between social status, gender and marriage choices in urban China today, with a specific focus on highly educated and high-income women. The fieldwork research included in-depth interviews with 70 women in Beijing, 35 of whom hold or are in the midst of attaining a PhD, and 35 of whom are professional or business women who earn over 5,000 RMB per month. The interviews probed their romantic choices and marriageability, examining the factors that affect their decision-making and the ways in which they describe and justify their personal life courses. The research findings are set against popular Chinese discourses which suggest that high-status Chinese women are undesirable as wives and, as a consequence, largely remain single. Chapter 3 examines the content of these discourses and discusses the social norms and values that underpin them. The research shows that, contrary to the stereotype portrayed in the discourses, a high proportion of the highly educated and high-income women are married or in serious relationships. However, their personal life courses tend to vary slightly from the norm as a consequence of several interrelated factors. First, the time spent studying or establishing a career tends to delay marriage and motherhood. Second, changing views on love and on relationships encourage these women to seek emotional satisfaction in a relationship tailored to their needs rather than marriage for the sake of it. Finally, economic independence plays an important role in increasing the likelihood of a non-normative personal life course, as it allows these women to give effect to their views about the true purpose of relationships. As a case study this dissertation contributes to an understanding of contemporary urban Chinese sexual, gender, and familial norms. It also broadens our understanding of the role of the educated middle class at the forefront of changes in lifestyles and in the reshaping of intimate relationships.
Action Correlations and Random Matrix Theory

description: The correlations in the spectra of quantum systems are intimately related to correlations which are of genuine classical origin, and which appear in the spectra of actions of the classical periodic orbits of the corresponding classical systems. We review this duality and the semiclassical theory which brings it about. The conjecture that the quantum spectral statistics are described in terms of Random Matrix Theory, leads to the proposition that the classical two-point correlation function is given also in terms of a universal function. We study in detail the spectrum of actions of the Baker map, and use it to illustrate the steps needed to reveal the classical correlations, their origin and their relation to symbolic dynamics.

Heavy quarkonium suppression beyond the adiabatic limit

description: Many prior studies of in-medium quarkonium suppression have implicitly made use of an adiabatic approximation in which it was assumed that the heavy quark potential is a slowly varying function of time. In the adiabatic limit, one can separately determine the in-medium breakup rate and the medium time evolution, folding these together only at the end of the calculation. In this paper, we relax this assumption by solving the 3d Schrodinger equation in real-time in order to compute quarkonium suppression dynamically. We compare results obtained using the adiabatic approximation with real-time calculations for both harmonic oscillator and realistic complex heavy quark potentials. Using the latter, we find that, for the Upsilon(1s), the difference between the adiabatic approximation and full real-time evolution is at the few percent level, however, for the Upsilon(2s), we find that the correction can be as large as 18% in low temperature regions. For the J/Psi, we find a larger difference between the dynamical evolution and the adiabatic approximation, with the error reaching approximately 36%.
