description: NGC 5548 has been well spectroscopically monitored for reverberation mapping of the central kinematics by 19 campaigns. Using the maximum entropy method in this Letter, we build up a high-quality velocity-delay map of the H$β$ emission line in the light curves of the continuum and the line variations observed between 2015-2016. The map shows the response strength and lags of the velocity fields of the H$β$ emitting regions. The velocity-delay structure of the map is generally symmetric, with strong red and blue wings at time lag $τ\leq 15$ days, a narrower velocity distribution at $τ\geq 15$ days, and a deficit of response in the core. This is suggestive of a disk geometry of the broad-line region (BLR). The relatively weaker H$β$ response at the longer lags in the red side indicates anisotropic emission from the outer part of the BLR. We also recover the velocity-delay maps of NGC 5548 from the historical data of 13 years to investigate the long-term variability of its BLR. In general, the BLR of NGC 5548 was switching between the inflow and virialized phases in the past years. The resultant maps of seven years reveal inflow signatures and show decreasing lags, indicating that the changes in the BLR size are related to the infalling BLR gas. The other four maps show potential disk signatures which are similar to our map.

description: We report thermoelectric (TE) properties of Sr and Mn co-substituted LaCoO3 system from room temperature to 700 K. Sr-substitutions at La and Mn at Co site in LaCoO3 improves the electrical conductivity (σ). Thermal conductivity (\k{appa}) of all the samples increases with the increase in temperature but decreases with the substitution in LaCoO3. An estimation of the electronic thermal conductivity (\k{appa}e) suggests a dominant phonon contribution to thermal conductivity in this system. A maximum value of the figure of merit is 0.14 at 480 K for La0.95Sr0.05Co0.95Mn0.05O3

description: Background: This paper adopts a communication and sociocultural perspective to analyze the factors behind the lag in electronic medical record (EMR) adoption in the United States. Much of the extant research on this topic has emphasized economic factors, particularly, lack of economic incentives, as the primary cause of the delay in EMR adoption. This prompted the Health Information Technology on Economic and Clinical Health Act that allow financial incentives through the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid Services for many health care organizations planning to adopt EMR. However, financial incentives alone have not solved the problem; many new innovations do not diffuse even when offered for free. Thus, this paper underlines the need to consider communication and sociocultural factors to develop a better understanding of the impediments of EMR adoption. Objective: The objective of this paper was to develop a holistic understanding of EMR adoption by identifying and analyzing the impact of communication and sociocultural factors that operate at 3 levels: macro (environmental), meso (organizational), and micro (individual). Methods: We use the systems approach to focus on the 3 levels (macro, meso, and micro) and developed propositions at each level drawing on the communication and sociocultural perspectives. Results: Our analysis resulted in 10 propositions that connect communication and sociocultural aspects with EMR adoption. Conclusions: This paper brings perspectives from the social sciences that have largely been missing in the extant literature of health information technology (HIT) adoption. In doing so, it implies how communication and sociocultural factors may complement (and in some instances, reinforce) the impact of economic factors on HIT adoption.

description: The dynamical aspects of the phonoriton state in highly-photoexcited semiconductors is studied theoretically. The effect of the exciton-exciton interaction and nonbosonic character of high-density excitons are taken into account. Using Green's function method and within the Random Phase Approximation it is shown that the phonoriton dispersion and damping are very sensitive to the exciton density, characterizing the excitation degree of semiconductors.

description: We study the general Higgs-weak boson coupling with CP-violation via the process e+e- -> f \bar f h. We categorize the signal channels by sub-processes Zh production and ZZ fusion and construct four CP asymmetries by exploiting polarized e+e- beams. We find complementarity among the sub-processes and the asymmetries to probe the real and imaginary parts of the CP-violating form factor. Certain asymmetries with unpolarized beams can retain significant sensitivity to the coupling. We conclude that at a linear collider with high luminosity, the CP-odd ZZh coupling may be sensitively probed via measurements of the asymmetries.

description: TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) is a very common method for Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) problem in crisp as well as uncertain environment. The interval trapezoidal neutrosophic number can handle incomplete, indeterminate and inconsistent information which are generally occurred in uncertain environment. In this paper, we propose TOPSIS method for MADM, where the rating values of the attributes are interval trapezoidal neutrosophic numbers and the weight information of the attributes are known or partially known or completely unknown. We develop optimization models to obtain weights of the attributes with the help of maximum deviation strategy for partially known and completely unknown cases. Finally, we provide a numerical example to illustrate the proposed approach and make a comparative analysis.

description: Once the energy spectrum of the secondary component is well understood, measurements of the antiproton cosmic-ray flux at the Earth will be a powerful way to indirectly probe for the existence of supersymmetric relics in the galactic halo. Unfortunately, it is still spoilt by considerable theoretical uncertainties. As shown in this work, searches for low-energy antideuterons appear in the mean time as a plausible alternative, worth being explored. Above a few GeV/n, a dozen spallation antideuterons should be collected by the future AMS experiment on board ISSA. For energies less than about 3 GeV/n, the antideuteron spallation component becomes negligible and may be supplanted by a potential supersymmetric signal. If a few low-energy antideuterons are discovered, this should be seriously taken as a clue for the existence of massive neutralinos in the Milky Way.

description: Neutrosophic (over, off, under) set and logic were defined for the first time in 1995 by Florentin Smarandache, and presented during 1995-2018 to various national and international conferences and seminars. The (over, off, under) neutrosophic geometric programming was put forward by Huda et al. in an attempt to define a new type of geometric programming using (over, off, under) neutrosophic less than or equal to. This paper completes the basic notions of (over, off, under) neutrosophic geometric programming illustrating its convexity condition, and its decomposition theorems.
title: The socio-cultural importance of Mauritia flexuosa palm swamps (aguajales) and implications for multi-use management in two Maijuna communities of the Peruvian Amazon

description: Background Fruit from the palm Mauritia flexuosa (aguaje) is harvested throughout the Peruvian Amazon for subsistence and commercial purposes. Recent estimates suggest that residents of Iquitos, the largest city in the region, consume approximately 148.8 metric tons of aguaje fruit per month, the vast majority of which is harvested by felling and killing adult female trees. In this study, we sought to better understand and document the importance of M. flexuosa palm swamps (aguajales) in two Maijuna indigenous communities to inform the sustainable management of this habitat and species. Methods Semi-structured interviews, focus groups, and household surveys were carried out to assess the significance of aguajales and their associated plant and animal resources as well as to determine how the relationship that the Maijuna have with aguajales has changed over time. Results Aguajales and their associated resources are culturally significant and useful to the Maijuna in a wide variety of ways. In addition to M. flexuosa, the Maijuna use over 60 different species of plants from aguajales. When M. flexuosa is in fruit, aguajales are important hunting areas with a total of 20 different animal species hunted. The Maijuna also have traditional beliefs about aguajales, believing that malevolent supernatural beings reside in them. Notably, the relationship that the Maijuna have with aguajales has changed considerably over the years as aguaje fruit went from a subsistence item collected opportunistically from the ground to a market good destructively harvested beginning in the early 1990s. The Maijuna are concerned not only about how this has affected the future commercial harvest of aguaje but also about its effects on game animals given the importance of hunting to Maijuna cultural identity, subsistence, and income generation. Conclusions In order to meet the multiple socio-cultural and economic needs of the Maijuna, sustainable management efforts must be expanded to not only focus on the commercial harvest of aguaje but also other facets of their relationship with this habitat. Our study suggests that the research and development of multi-use forest management plans must not be restricted to commercial forest products and ecosystem services given that many communities rely on tropical forests for a wide range of non-market cultural, economic, and subsistence goods and services.

description: Standard phase-stepping algorithms (PSAs) estimate the measuring phase of linear carrier temporal-fringes with respect to a linear-reference. Linear-carrier fringes are normally obtained using feedback, closed-loop, optical phase-shifting devices. On the other hand, open-loop, phase-shifting devices, usually give fringe patterns with nonlinear phase-shifts. The Fourier spectrum of linear-carrier fringes is composed by Dirac deltas only. In contrast, nonlinear phase-shifted fringes are wideband, spread-spectrum signals. It is well known that using linear-phase reference PSA to demodulate nonlinear phase-shifted fringes, one obtains an spurious-piston. The problem with this spurious-piston, is that it may wrongly be taken as a real optical thickness. Here we mathematically find the origin of this spurious-piston and design nonlinear phase-stepping PSAs to cope with open-loop, nonlinear phase-shifted interferometric fringes. We give a general theory to tailor nonlinear phase-stepping PSAs to demodulate nonlinear phase-shifted wideband fringes.

Statistical inference on lattices

description: In many scientific disciplines, there is frequently a need to describe purely spatial interactions among objects located at the sites of a lattice. Of particular interest are the equilibrium states of physical and biological phenomena occurring simultaneously at sites in more than one dimension (e.g. ferromagnetism, crystal formation, patterns of infection). Markov random fields form a wide class of intu.-itively appealing models for spatial interaction. Binary ones have been studied extensively in statistical mechanics where they are known as Ising models. In the biological and ecological context, it is the fitting of data and analysis of given patterns which is most relevant. Statistical inference for Markov random fields is a relatively new field. In particular, Ising models are notoriously difficult to analyse and the absence of constructive characterizations has rendered Monte Carlo simulation an ineffective tool for comparing various statistical techniques. This thesis provides a basis for asymptotic maximum likelihood inference for binary Markov random fields. The general method is illustrated by the detailed analysis of the classical Ising lattice with nearest neighbour interactions. However, the resulting limit theorems for this model are of considerable interest in their own right. Some rather surprising technical problems arise in connection with the application of the limit theorems. A solution is presented. Also, a class of relatively tractable Ising models, which admit constructive characterizations and direct simulation, is introduced in this thesis. The properties of these models are explored. In particular, they generally have a geometric correlation structure and contain embedded Markov chains. Moreover, they can further be used in simulation studies to compare the relative effectiveness of various methods of spatial analysis. Finally, although all the results are for binary models, the tools are useful in much wider generality. They apply, for example, to Gaussian Markov random fields as well.

description: We discuss renormalization of the non-relativistic three-body problem with short-range forces. The problem is non-perturbative at momenta of the order of the inverse of the two-body scattering length. An infinite number of graphs must be summed, which leads to a cutoff dependence that does not appear in any order in perturbation theory. We argue that this cutoff dependence can be absorbed in one local three-body force counterterm and compute the running of the three-body force with the cutoff. This allows a calculation of the scattering of a particle and the two-particle bound state if the corresponding scattering length is used as input. We also obtain a model-independent relation between binding energy of a shallow three-body bound state and this scattering length. We comment on the power counting that organizes higher-order corrections and on relevance of this result for the effective field theory program in nuclear and molecular physics.

description: What does it mean to ‘be’ an ethical faculty member? A number of scholars point to legal and moral issues, aligning ethics with professional codes and regulated by institutional policy. From this perspective, being ethical is a matter of knowing and following the professional rules—the goal is to avoid certain actions. On the other hand, others question this objectivist approach and position faculty ethics as an experience, a fusion of personal and professional histories that include disciplinary training, socialization to the profession, and—especially—the specter of faculty rewards such as tenure and promotion. This article explores these competing perspectives in a qualitative meta-synthesis of data collected across studies of faculty identity, professional epistemology, and academic ethics. This analysis concentrates on 116 interviews with women and minority doctoral students and faculty members conducted between 1999 and 2012, a subset of more than 200 interviews I conducted during this timeframe. All interviews were initially coded using constant comparative analysis. For the meta-synthesis, I chose to apply an elaborative coding technique that juxtaposes data with the ethics literature related to chilly and alienating climates, cultural taxation, and the snare of faculty rewards in higher education. This (re)analysis allowed me engage in a formal dialogue between local theory and scholarship, resulting in six sub-themes: ‘real’izing, acting out/in, toiling, serving, aligning, and diverging.

description: Directed flow ($v_1$) is a good probe of the early-stage dynamics of collision systems, and the $v_1$ slope at midrapidity ($dv_1/dy|_{y=0}$) is sensitive to the system's equation of state. STAR has published $v_1(y)$ measurements for ten particle species ($π^\pm$, $p$, $\bar{p}$, $Λ$, $\barΛ$, $ϕ$, $K^\pm$ and $K^0_{S}$) in Au+Au collisions at eight beam energies from $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 7.7$ GeV to 200 GeV. In this study, we employ a simple coalescence idea to decompose $v_1$ of hadrons into $v_1$ of constituent quarks. The $dv_1/dy$ values of $\bar{p}$, $K^-$ and $\barΛ$ are used to test the coalescence sum rule for produced quarks. Data involving produced quarks support the coalescence picture at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 11.5$ GeV to 200 GeV, and a sharp deviation from this picture is observed at 7.7 GeV. The $dv_1/dy$ of transported quarks is studied via net particles (net $p$ and net $Λ$). In these proceedings, we further extract the $v_1$ slopes of produced and transported quarks, assuming that the coalescence sum rule is valid.

description: Abstract A new group of compounds, promising for the design of original multitarget therapeutic agents for treating neurodegenerative diseases, based on conjugates of aminoadamantane and carbazole derivatives was synthesized and investigated. Compounds of these series were found to interact with a group of targets that play an important role in the development of this type of diseases. First of all, these compounds selectively inhibit butyrylcholinesterase, block NMDA receptors containing NR2B subunits while maintaining the properties of MK-801 binding site blockers, exert microtubules stabilizing properties, and possess the ability to protect nerve cells from death at the calcium overload conditions. The leading compound C-2h has been shown the most promising effects on all analyzed parameters. Thus, these compounds can be regarded as promising candidates for the design of multi-target disease-modifying drugs for treatment of AD and/or similar neuropathologies.

description: According to the honing theory of creativity, the iterative process culminating in a creative work is made possible by the self-organizing nature of a conceptual network, or worldview, and its innate holistic tendency to minimize inconsistency. As such, the creative process is not limited to the problem domain, and influences on creativity from domains other than that of the final product are predicted to be widespread. We conducted a study in which participants with varying levels of creative experience listed their creative outputs, as well as influences (sources of inspiration) on these outputs. Of the 758 creative influences, 13% were within-domain narrow, 13% within-domain broad, 67% cross-domain, and 6% unclear. These findings support the hypothesis that to trace the inspirational sources or 'conceptual parents' of a creative output, and thus track its cultural lineage, one must look beyond the problem domain to the creators' self-organizing, inconsistency-minimizing worldview at large.

description: We present milliarcsecond (mas) angular resolution observations of the gravitationally lensed radio source MG J0751+2716 (at z=3.2) obtained with global Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) at 1.65 GHz. The background object is highly resolved in the tangential and radial directions, showing evidence of both compact and extended structure across several gravitational arcs that are 200 to 600~mas in size. By identifying compact sub-components in the multiple images, we constrain the mass distribution of the foreground z=0.35 gravitational lens using analytic models for the main deflector [power-law elliptical mass model; $ρ(r) \propto r^{-γ}$, where $γ=2$ corresponds to isothermal] and for the members of the galaxy group. Moreover, our mass models with and without the group find an inner mass-density slope steeper than isothermal for the main lensing galaxy, with $γ_1 = 2.08 \pm 0.02$ and $γ_2 = 2.16 \pm 0.02$ at the 4.2$σ$ level and 6.8$σ$ level, respectively, at the Einstein radius ($b_1 = 0.4025 \pm 0.0008$ and $b_2 = 0.307 \pm 0.002$ arcsec, respectively). We find randomly distributed image position residuals of about 3 mas, which are much larger that the measurement errors ($40$ $μ$as on average). This suggests that at the mas level, the assumption of a smooth mass distribution fails, requiring additional structure in the model. However, given the environment of the lensing galaxy, it is not clear whether this extra mass is in the form of sub-haloes within the lens or along the line of sight, or from a more complex halo for the galaxy group.

description: The microscopic approach quantum dissipation process presented by Yu and Sun [Phys. Rev., A49(1994)592, A51(1995)1845] is developed to analyze the wave function structure of dynamic evolution of a typical dissipative system, a single mode boson soaked in a bath of many bosons. In this paper, the wave function of total system is explicitly obtained as a product of two components of the system and the bath in the coherent state representation. It not only describes the influence of the bath on the variable of the system through the Brownian motion, but also manifests the back- action of the system on the bath and the effects of the mutual interaction among the bosons of the bath. Due to the back-action, the total wave function can only be partially factorizable even for the Brownian motion can be ignored in certain senses, such as the cases with weak coupling and large detuning

description: The United States government has been funding infrastructure expansions and upgrades to bring Internet access to schools and households. While this broadband funding has increased access and adoption, it is unclear how improvements in Internet access affect student performance because Internet access has both productivity and distraction effects. The Internet provides students with access to vast amounts of educational content, instructional videos and other valuable resources that increase productivity. It also provides students access to social media, video games and other forms of entertainment that distract students and reduce student performance.  While the literature shows that advances in technology (computers) and Internet access improve firm performance (Brynjolfsson and Hitt 1996), recent studies find that increased access to the Internet has almost no effect on student performance. Using a dataset of 247 counties in Texas with broadband penetration and graduation rates in public schools in 2000, 2010 and 2017, I find that a 10 percentage-point increase in broadband penetration is associated with a statistically significant 1.83 percentage-point increase in graduation rates after correcting for endogeneity. This result differs from what other published literature find on this topic.

description: We experimentally observed the violation of Kujula-Dzhafarov noncontextuality inequalities by non-separable spin-orbit laser modes. Qubits are encoded on polarization and transverse modes of an intense laser beam. A spin-orbit non-separable mode was produced by means of a radial polarization converter (S-plate). The results show that contextuality can be investigated by using spin-orbit modes in a simple way, corroborating recent works stating that such system can emulate single-photon experiments. Additionally, an improvement in the non-separable mode preparation allowed us to observe a greater violation of the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality for such system. The results are in very good agreement with the theoretical predictions of quantum mechanics.

Approaches to drug therapy for COPD in Russia a proposed therapeutic algorithm.docx

description: Abstract Until recently, there have been few clinical algorithms for the management of patients with COPD. Current evidence-based clinical management guidelines can appear to be complex, and they lack clear step-by-step instructions. For these reasons, we chose to create a simple and practical clinical algorithm for the management of patients with COPD, which would be applicable to real-world clinical practice, and which was based on clinical symptoms and spirometric parameters that would take into account the pathophysiological heterogeneity of COPD. This optimized algorithm has two main fields, one for nonspecialist treatment by primary care and general physicians and the other for treatment by specialized pulmonologists. Patients with COPD are treated with long-acting bronchodilators and short-acting drugs on a demand basis. If the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) is ≥50% of predicted and symptoms are mild, treatment with a single long-acting muscarinic antagonist or long-acting beta-agonist is proposed. When FEV1 is <50% of predicted and/or the COPD assessment test score is ≥10, the use of combined bronchodilators is advised. If there is no response to treatment after three months, referral to a pulmonary specialist is recommended for pathophysiological endotyping: 1) eosinophilic endotype with peripheral blood or sputum eosinophilia >3%; 2) neutrophilic endotype with peripheral blood neutrophilia >60% or green sputum; or 3) pauci-granulocytic endotype. It is hoped that this simple, optimized, step-by-step algorithm will help to individualize the treatment of COPD in real-world clinical practice. This algorithm has yet to be evaluated prospectively or by comparison with other COPD management algorithms, including its effects on patient treatment outcomes. However, it is hoped that this algorithm may be useful in daily clinical practice for physicians treating patients with COPD in Russia.
Antiferromagnetic spin ladders: crossover between spin S = 1/2 and S = 1 chains

description: We study a model of two weakly coupled isotropic spin-1/2 Heisenberg chains with an antiferromagnetic coupling along the chains. It is shown that the system always has a spectral gap. For the case of identical chains the model in the continuous limit is equivalent to 4 decoupled noncritical Ising models. For this case we obtain the exact expressions for the asymptotics of spin-spin correlation functions. When the chains have different exchange integrals the spectrum at low energies is well described by the O(3) nonlinear sigma model. We discuss the topological order parameter related to the gap formation and give a detailed description of the dynamical magnetic susceptibility.

title: “Advocacy” and “Activism” Are Not Dirty Words–How Activists Can Better Help Conservation Scientists
Creators: name: Parsons, E. Christien Michael
Publisher: name: Frontiers in Marine Science

description: Whether scientists should be advocates for conservation has been a matter of debate in the scientific community and literature (Brussard and Tull, 2007; Lackey, 2007; Noss, 2007; Chan, 2008; Nelson and Vucetich, 2009; Scott and Rachlow, 2010; Parsons, 2013; Rose and Parsons, 2015). Some are set against it, such as Lackey (2007), who considers that while scientists should be involved in the policy process, they should not show any preferences for conservation policies, nor even use value-laden terms in their work, such as good, healthy, or degradation. On the other side of the spectrum, Noss (2007) argues that everyone has opinions and values and, when it comes to making policy recommendations, who better to do so than scientists, who are closest to the facts?

description: We demonstrate a radio-frequency potassium-vapor magnetometer operating with sensitivities of 0.3 fT/√Hz at 0.5 MHz and 0.9 fT/ √Hz at 1.31 MHz in the absence of radio-frequency and mu-metal or magnetic shielding. The use of spatially separated magnetometers, two voxels within the same cell, permits for the subtraction of common mode noise and the retention of a gradient signal, as from a local source. At 0.5 MHz the common mode noise was white and measured to be 3.4 fT/ √Hz; upon subtraction the noise returned to the values observed when the magnetometer was shielded. At 1.31 MHz, the common mode noise was from a nearby radio station and was reduced by a factor of 33 upon subtraction, limited only by the radio signal picked up by receiver electronics. Potential applications include in-the-field low-field magnetic resonance, such as the use of nuclear quadrupole resonance for the detection of explosives.
