description: O excesso de peso é cada vez maior entre da população escolar jovem. Uma vez que não é evidente qual a atitude dos alunos com sobrepeso e obesidade face à participação em atividades físicas e sua relação com o desempenho escolar pretendemos identificar os factores de influência no contexto da EF escolar. Participaram neste estudo 490 alunos dos 3º ciclo e ensino secundário, divididos por sexo. Os valores de IMC foram ajustados para sexo e idade e criados três grupos: Magreza; peso normal; e excesso de peso. Os valores dos resultados escolares foram normalizadas para uma escala de 1 a 5 valores. A participação em atividades desportivas, regularidade de prática e percepção do sucesso escolar foi medida por questionário. Após análise exploratória dos dados foram realizados os testes do Qui-quadrado, ANOVA e correlação de Pearson. O eta quadrado parcial (η²) foi reportado como medida da magnitude do efeito das diferenças verificadas nas ANOVAs. Foi considerado o valor de α de 0.05. Os resultados mostraram que alunos com excesso de peso e magreza reportaram menores níveis de atividade física em relação a alunos normoponderais (4.20±1.73, 4.06±1.77, 4.61±1.73; p=0.044; η²=0.01, resp.). A maior parte dos alunos definiu o seu sucesso escolar através da aprovação/transição de ano a par de boas classificações, tendo este grupo obtido níveis superiores de prática (4.57±1.71, p=0.03) Verificaram-se efeitos significativos da variável níveis de IMC nas classificações médias finais e na disciplina de EF, em que os alunos normoponderais obtiveram melhores classificações do que os alunos com excesso de peso. Além disso, verificaram-se correlações significativas entre as classificações de Português e Matemática (r=0.80; p<0.001), entre as classificações de EF e Português (r=0.36; p<0.001), e entre as classificações de EF e Matemática (r=0.42; p<0.001). Os alunos com sobrepeso apresentaram níveis inferiores de prática de atividade física quando comparados com os alunos com peso normal ou magros concomitantemente com um rendimento escolar inferior. Face aos resultados consideramos a prática de atividade física um fator com influência positiva no rendimento escolar em alunos dos ensinos básico e secundário.

description: Community detection is a major issue in network analysis. This paper combines a socio-historical approach with an experimental reconstruction of programs to investigate the early automation of clique detection algorithms, which remains one of the unsolved NP-complete problems today. The research led by the archaeologist Jean-Claude Gardin from the 1950s on non-numerical information and graph analysis is retraced to demonstrate the early contributions of social sciences and humanities. The limited recognition and reception of Gardin's innovative computer application to the humanities are addressed through two factors, in addition to the effects of historiography and bibliographies on the recording, discoverability, and reuse of scientific productions: 1) funding policies, evidenced by the transfer of research effort on graph applications from temporary interdisciplinary spaces to disciplinary organizations related to the then-emerging field of computer science; and 2) the erratic careers of algorithms, in which efficiency, flaws, corrections, and authors' status, were determining factors.

Occupational health and fitness : a treatise on the relationship between physical fitness and health status as they apply to the occupational setting, with particular emphasis on aerobic fitness, coronary heart disease and the Canadian military
Creators: name: Bardsley, John Edward
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Coronary heart disease takes a large toll of middle-aged males thereby reducing the overall occupational fitness and potential of the workforce. Most of the risk factors for CHD (and other diseases) are self-determined and/or the result of preventable behaviour or alterable environment. The Multiple Risk Factor Hypothesis and the CHD risk factors are reviewed in detail in Chapter 2. It is more the interaction among risk factors within supposedly "normal" limits, rather than abnormally high levels of one or a few factors which results in the development of CHD, a phenomenon which obscures the issue of causation. It is hypothesized that the imbalance between the collective pathogenic effects of risk factors and the ability of the body to resist and/or repair such effects cause CHD. States such as sedentariness and obesity in which most of the risk factors tend to be clustered are important risk indicators. Moreover, since the overall risk profile is improved with reversal of these two states through regular aerobic activity and weight loss, the latter two are key interventions in CHD prevention. Risk factor screening to identify those at risk and subsequent modification of the risk status are useful manoeuvers for the prevention of CHD. As well as being secondary to the ravages of such diseases as CHD, occupational productivity is also reduced by poor levels of employee physical fitness. The recognition by employers of the potential success of CHD prevention programs and the increased productivity of the fit employee has led to the emergence of employer-sponsored occupational fitness programs. Such programs are based on a wholistic health-enhancement approach with regular aerobic physical activity as the core. The operative principles, contents (including the what and how of the all important assessment component) and benefits of such programs are reviewed in Chapter 3. A review of the state of health and fitness in the Canadian Forces and the experimental portion of the thesis make up Chapter 4. In spite of policies, orders and programs to ensure the health and fitness of Canadian Forces' personnel, the CF remains a fairly high-risk population. The cross-sectional study on the health and fitness of 2 83 CF personnel at National Defence Headquarters shows that Other Ranks constitute a higher-risk rank grouping than Officers, as do lower ranks in both of these two major rank groupings. Volunteers appear to be a self-selected sub-population which is healthier and fitter than average. Aerobic fitness (VO₂ max), obesity and resting heart rate emerge as the three key indicators of health and CHD risk status. Chapter 5 summarizes the thesis and contains conclusions and recommendations to the CF for future actions which are also applicable to most occupational settings.

description: Motivated by A/B/n testing applications, we consider a finite set of distributions (called \emph{arms}), one of which is treated as a \emph{control}. We assume that the population is stratified into homogeneous subpopulations. At every time step, a subpopulation is sampled and an arm is chosen: the resulting observation is an independent draw from the arm conditioned on the subpopulation. The quality of each arm is assessed through a weighted combination of its subpopulation means. We propose a strategy for sequentially choosing one arm per time step so as to discover as fast as possible which arms, if any, have higher weighted expectation than the control. This strategy is shown to be asymptotically optimal in the following sense: if $τ_δ$ is the first time when the strategy ensures that it is able to output the correct answer with probability at least $1-δ$, then $\mathbb{E}[τ_δ]$ grows linearly with $\log(1/δ)$ at the exact optimal rate. This rate is identified in the paper in three different settings: (1) when the experimenter does not observe the subpopulation information, (2) when the subpopulation of each sample is observed but not chosen, and (3) when the experimenter can select the subpopulation from which each response is sampled. We illustrate the efficiency of the proposed strategy with numerical simulations on synthetic and real data collected from an A/B/n experiment.

description: We report the possible discovery of a new stellar system (YMCA-1), identified during a search for small scale overdensities in the photometric data of the YMCA survey. The object's projected position lies on the periphery of the Large Magellanic Cloud about $13^\circ$ apart from its center. The most likely interpretation of its color-magnitude diagram, as well as of its integrated properties, is that YMCA-1 may be an old and remote star cluster of the Milky Way at a distance of 100 kpc from the Galactic center. If this scenario could be confirmed, then the cluster would be significantly fainter and more compact than most of the known star clusters residing in the extreme outskirts of the Galactic halo, but quite similar to Laevens~3. However, much deeper photometry is needed to firmly establish the actual nature of the cluster and the distance to the system.

description: This article presents a physical biology approach to understanding organization and segregation of bacterial chromosomes. The author uses a "piston" analogy for bacterial chromosomes in a cell, which leads to a phase diagram for the organization of two athermal chains confined in a closed geometry characterized by two length scales (length and width). When applied to rod-shaped bacteria such as Escherichia coli, this phase diagram predicts that, despite strong confinement, duplicated chromosomes will demix, i.e., there exists a primordial physical driving force for chromosome segregation. The author discusses segregation of duplicating chromosomes using the concentric-shell model, which predicts that newly synthesized DNA will be found in the periphery of the chromosome during replication. In contrast to chromosomes, these results suggest that most plasmids will be randomly distributed inside the cell because of their small sizes. An active partitioning system is therefore required for accurate segregation of low-copy number plasmids. Implications of these results are also sketched, e.g., on the role of proteins, segregation mechanisms for bacteria of diverse shapes, cell cycle of an artificial cell, and evolution.

description: We report on the results from the observations in very high energy band (VHE, E_gamma > 100 GeV) of the black hole X-ray binary (BHXB) Cygnus X-1. The observations were performed with the MAGIC telescope, for a total of 40 hours during 26 nights, spanning the period between June and November 2006. Searches for steady gamma-ray signals yielded no positive result and upper limits to the integral flux ranging between 1 and 2% of the Crab nebula flux, depending on the energy, have been established. We also analyzed each observation night independently, obtaining evidence of gamma-ray signals at the 4.0 standard deviations (sigma) significance level (3.2 sigma after trial correction) for 154 minutes effective on-time (EOT) on September 24 between 20h58 and 23h41 UTC, coinciding with an X-ray flare seen by RXTE, Swift and INTEGRAL. A search for faster-varying signals within a night resulted in an excess with a significance of 4.9 sigma (4.1 sigma after trial correction) for 79 minutes EOT between 22h17 and 23h41 UTC. The measured excess is compatible with a point-like source at the position of Cygnus X-1, and excludes the nearby radio nebula powered by its relativistic jet. The differential energy spectrum is well fitted by an unbroken power-law described by dN/(dA dt dE) = (2.3+- 0.6) x 10^{-12} (E/1 TeV)^{-3.2 +- 0.6}. This is the first experimental evidence of VHE emission from a stellar-mass black hole, and therefore from a confirmed accreting X-ray binary.

description: A utilidade dos videogames na reabilitação de pacientes com Doença de Parkinson (PDP) vem sendo demonstrada. Contudo, a discussão sobre a seleção dos jogos utilizados ainda é escassa, embora fundamental para recomendação de seu uso terapêutico. Não foram, até o momento, encontrados estudos sobre a utilização do Xbox Kinect® (XK) na reabilitação de PDP. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar as modificações de desempenho de PDP, decorrentes do treino, por meio das mudanças nas pontuações de jogos do XK, em cada sessão. Sete PDP em estágios leve a moderado realizaram 14 sessões de treinamento em quatro jogos previamente selecionados. As pontuações foram registradas para análise da curva de desempenho entre as sessões. Foram feitas análises de variância para medidas repetidas considerando-se um grupo e 14 sessões, seguidas por testes Post Hoc Tukey-Kramer para verificar as diferenças entre as mesmas (p≤ 0.05). Os resultados mostraram que os PDP melhoraram seu desempenho em todos os jogos, porém em momentos diferentes. Concluiu-se que os PDP do presente estudo mostraram capacidade de melhorar o desempenho em jogos do XK, mas que a melhora depende das demandas e da presença de fatores facilitadores da aprendizagem, reforçando a importância da sua escolha com propósito de reabilitação.

description: The optical response of bulk germanium sulfide (GeS) is investigated systematically using different polarization-resolved experimental techniques, such as photoluminescence (PL), reflectance contrast (RC), and Raman scattering (RS). It is shown that while the low-temperature ($T$=5 K) optical band-gap absorption is governed by a single resonance related to the neutral exciton, the corresponding emission is dominated by the disorder/impurity- and/or phonon-assisted recombination processes. Both the RC and PL spectra are found to be linearly polarized along the armchair direction. The low and room ($T$=300 K) temperature RS spectra consist of six Raman peaks identified with the help of Density Fuctional Theory (DFT) calculations: A$^1_{\textrm{g}}$, A$^2_{\textrm{g}}$, A$^3_{\textrm{g}}$, A$^4_{\textrm{g}}$, B$^1_{\textrm{1g}}$, and B$^2_{\textrm{1g}}$, which polarization properties are studied under four different excitation energies. We found that the polarization orientations of the A$^2_{\textrm{g}}$ and A$^4_{\textrm{g}}$ modes under specific excitation energy can be useful tools to determine the GeS crystallographic directions: armchair and zigzag.

description: Let $λ: \tilde{G}\to G$ be the non-trivial double covering of the symplectic group $G=Sp(V,ω)$ of the symplectic vector space $(V,ω)$ by the metaplectic group $\tilde{G}=Mp(V,ω).$ In this case, $λ$ is also a representation of $\tilde{G}$ on the vector space $V$ and thus, it gives rise to the representation of $\tilde{G}$ on the space of exterior forms $\bigwedge^{\bullet}V^*$ by taking wedge products. Let $S$ be the minimal globalization of the Harish-Chandra module of the complex Segal-Shale-Weil representation of the metaplectic group $\tilde{G}.$ We prove that the associative commutant algebra $\hbox{End}_{\tilde{G}}(\bigwedge^{\bullet}V^*\otimes S)$ of the metaplectic group $\tilde{G}$ acting on the $S$-valued exterior forms is generated by certain representation of the super ortho-symplectic Lie algebra $osp(1|2)$ and two distinguished operators. This establishes a Howe type duality between the metaplectic group and the super Lie algebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2).$ Also the space $\bigwedge^{\bullet}V^*\otimes S$ is decomposed wr. to the joint action of $Mp(V,ω)$ and $osp(1|2).$

Perception of fricatives in an AX paradigm by children 3-4 1/2 years old
Creators: name: Barker, Dorothy Kathleen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: In the field of child language acquisition, in particular phonological acquisition, many have queried the role played by perception. The present study was undertaken to examine the perception of some speech sounds by children in the process of phonological development. Perception of the group of sounds known as fricatives was examined in a group of subjects aged 3;0 to 4;11. Pairs of nonsense syllables were presented to eight subjects in an AX paradigm. Results were examined for each fricative pair in terms of mean error rate. Some discussion of individual subjects was also included. Results showed that children find it more difficult to discriminate between some pairs of fricatives than others. In particular, the three voiced/voiceless minimal pairs: [sə-zə, ʃə- ʒə, fə-və] were found to be significantly more difficult to discrjurdnate than other pairs of fricatives. Findings were for the most part in agreement with the results of other similar studies. In addition, methodological problems inherent to the nature of the investigation were encountered and discussed.

description: The most effective way to enhance the dissipation-free supercurrent in presence of magnetic field for type II superconductors is the introduction of defects that acts as artificial pinning centres (APCs) for the vortices. For instance, the in-field critical current density of doped BaFe2As2 (Ba122), one of the most technologically important Fe-based superconductors, has been improved over the last decade by APCs created by ion-irradiation. The technique of ion-irradiation has been commonly implemented to determine the ultimate superconducting properties. However, this method is rather complicated and expensive. Here, we report on a surprisingly high critical current density and strong pinning efficiency close to the crystallographic c-axis for a K-doped Ba122 epitaxial thin film without APCs, achieving performance comparable to ion-irradiated K-doped Ba122 single crystals. Microstructural analysis reveals that the film is composed of columnar grains having width around 30-60 nm. The grains are rotated around the b- (or a-) axis by 1.5 degree and around the c-axis by -1 degree, resulting in the formation of low-angle grain boundary networks. This study demonstrates that the upper limit of in-field properties reached in ion-irradiated K-doped Ba122 is achievable by grain boundary engineering, which is a simple and industrially scalable manner.

description: Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially Neural Networks (NNs), has become increasingly popular. However, people usually treat AI as a tool, focusing on improving outcome, accuracy, and performance while paying less attention to the representation of AI itself. We present AIive, an interactive visualization of AI in Virtual Reality (VR) that brings AI "alive".

description: We report a discovery of a double radio relic in the cluster merger ZwCl1447.2+2619 ($z=0.376$) with uGMRT observations at $420\rm~MHz$ and $700\rm~MHz$. The linear sizes of the northern and southern relics are $\sim0.3~$Mpc and $\sim1.2~$Mpc, respectively, which is consistent with the theoretical expectation that a larger relic is produced in the less massive subcluster side. However, ZwCl1447.2+2619 is unlike other known double radio relic systems, where the larger relics are much more luminous by several factors. In this merger the higher surface brightness of the smaller northern relic makes its total radio luminosity comparable to that of the much larger southern relic. The surface brightness ratio $\sim0.1$ between the two radio relics differs significantly from the relation observed in other double radio relic systems. From our radio spectral analysis, we find that both relics signify similar weak shocks with Mach numbers of $2.9\pm0.8$ and $2.0\pm0.7$ for the northern and southern relics, respectively. Moreover, the northern relic is connected to a discrete radio source with an optical counterpart, which indicates the possible presence of cosmic ray injection and re-acceleration. Therefore, we propose that this atypical surface brightness ratio can be explained with the particle acceleration efficiency precipitously dropping in the weak shock regime and/or with re-acceleration of fossil cosmic rays. Our multi-wavelength analysis and numerical simulation suggest that ZwCl1447.2+2619 is a post-merger, which has experienced a near head-on collision $\sim0.7\rm~Gyr$ ago.

description: By imposing special compatible similarity constraints on a class of integrable partial $q$-difference equations of KdV-type we derive a hierarchy of second-degree ordinary $q$-difference equations. The lowest (non-trivial) member of this hierarchy is a second-order second-degree equation which can be considered as an analogue of equations in the class studied by Chazy. We present corresponding isomonodromic deformation problems and discuss the relation between this class of difference equations and other equations of Painleve type.

description: The theme of the cut, of the portion of reality that the photographic technique cuts out and freezes outside the time-space continuum, is intrinsic to photography. It has been analyzed by important curators and critics such as John Szarkowski and Philippe Dubois, whose work is historically related to the construction of a theory of photography as art. This paper, focuses on another type of photographic production: photographs in archives, which were traditionally cut out from official narratives based on museum values. Using examples from the Photothek of the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florenz, Max Planck Institute, this paper analyzes how cutting practices that shape photographic objects and documents over time. It shows that cutting practices in photo archives should not be considered a form of destruction, but rather a transformation of the photographic objects. Moreover, cut will prove itself as a very useful metaphor and heuristic category for exploring the epistemological potential and the value systems of (art-historical) photo archives.
Electronic transport in normal-conductor/graphene/normal-conductor junctions and conditions for insulating behavior at a finite charge-carrier density

description: We investigate the conductance of normal-conductor/graphene/normal-conductor (NGN) junctions for arbitrary on-site potentials in the normal and graphitic parts of the system. We find that a ballistic NGN junction can display insulating behavior even when the charge-carrier density in the graphene part is finite. This effect originates in the different k intervals supporting propagating modes in graphene and a normal conductor, and persists for moderate levels of bulk, edge, or interface disorder. The ensuing conductance thresholds could be used as an electronic tool to map out details of the graphene band structure in absolute k space.

description: Using the HST ACS, we have obtained deep optical images reaching well below the oldest main sequence turnoff in fields on the southeast minor-axis of the Andromeda Galaxy, 35 kpc from the nucleus. These data probe the star formation history in the extended halo of Andromeda -- that region beyond 30 kpc that appears both chemically and morphologically distinct from the metal-rich, highly-disturbed inner spheroid. The present data, together with our previous data for fields at 11 and 21 kpc, do not show a simple trend toward older ages and lower metallicities, as one might expect for populations further removed from the obvious disturbances of the inner spheroid. Specifically, the mean ages and [Fe/H] values at 11 kpc, 21 kpc, and 35 kpc are 9.7 Gyr and -0.65, 11.0 Gyr and -0.87, and 10.5 Gyr and -0.98, respectively. In the best-fit model of the 35 kpc population, one third of the stars are younger than 10 Gyr, while only ~10% of the stars are truly ancient and metal-poor. The extended halo thus exhibits clear evidence of its hierarchical assembly, and the contribution from any classical halo formed via early monolithic collapse must be small.

description: We report a novel correlated background in the antineutrino detection using the inverse beta decay reaction. Spontaneous fissions and $(α,n)$ reactions in peripheral materials of the antineutrino detector, such as borosilicate glass of photomultipliers, produce fast neutrons and prompt gamma rays. If the shielding from the material to the detector target were not thick enough, neutrons and gammas could enter the target volume and mimic antineutrino signals. This paper revisits the yields and energy spectra of neutrons produced in B$(α,n)$N and F$(α,n)$Na reactions. A Geant4 based simulation has been carried out using a simplified detector geometry for the present generation reactor neutrino experiments. The background rates in these experiments are estimated. If this background was not taken into account, the value of the neutrino mixing angle $\sin^22θ_{13}$ would be underestimated. We recommend that Daya Bay, RENO, Double Chooz, and JUNO, carefully examine the masses and radiopurity levels of detector materials that are close to the target and rich in boron and fluorine.

Scaling laws for soliton pulse compression by cascaded quadratic nonlinearities

description: We present a detailed study of soliton compression of ultra-short pulses based on phase-mismatched second-harmonic generation (\textit{i.e.}, the cascaded quadratic nonlinearity) in bulk quadratic nonlinear media. The single-cycle propagation equations in the temporal domain including higher-order nonlinear terms are presented. The balance between the quadratic (SHG) and the cubic (Kerr) nonlinearity plays a crucial role: we define an effective soliton number -- related to the difference between the SHG and the Kerr soliton numbers -- and show that it has to be larger than unity for successful pulse compression to take place. This requires that the phase mismatch be below a critical level, which is high in a material where the quadratic nonlinearity dominates over the cubic Kerr nonlinearity. Through extensive numerical simulations we find dimensionless scaling laws, expressed through the effective soliton number, which control the behaviour of the compressed pulses. These laws hold in the stationary regime, in which group-velocity mismatch effects are small, and they are similar to the ones observed for fiber soliton compressors. The numerical simulations indicate that clean compressed pulses below two optical cycles can be achieved in a $β$-barium borate crystal at appropriate wavelengths, even for picosecond input pulses.

Modified jump conditions for parallel collisionless shocks

description: Within the context of Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), the properties of a parallel shock do not depend on the field strength, as the field and the fluid are disconnected for such a geometry. However, in the collisionless case, the field can sustain a stable anisotropy in the downstream, triggering a departure from the expected MHD behavior. In a recent work [A. Bret and R. Narayan, J. Plasma Phys. \textbf{84}, 905840604 (2018)], a theoretical model was presented allowing to derive the density ratio of a non-relativistic parallel collisionless shock in an electron/positron plasma, as a function of the field. Here we derive the entropy, pressure and temperature jumps stemming from this model. It is found to offer a transition between a 3D and a 1D downstream for the jumps in density, entropy, parallel temperature and parallel pressure.

Remarks
With the increase in taxonomic sophistication in the Amphipoda over the last one and a half centuries, it is unavoidable that some of the earlier records from India will prove to be incorrect. This catalogue lists the names of all marine amphipods recorded from the Indian subcontinent so that researchers may follow the thread of amphipod records. Within the taxonomic list are species that are also probably incorrectly identified and their inclusion as Indian species is uncertain. These are clearly indicated with remarks in the list. Where identifications are clearly incorrect these have been omitted from the list and included in Table 1.

description: The notion of weak measurement provides a formalism for extracting information from a quantum system in the limit of vanishing disturbance to its state. Here we extend this formalism to the measurement of sequences of observables. When these observables do not commute, we may obtain information about joint properties of a quantum system that would be forbidden in the usual strong measurement scenario. As an application, we provide a physically compelling characterisation of the notion of counterfactual quantum computation.

description: The increasing use of online hospitality platforms provides firsthand information about clients preferences, which are essential to improve hotel services and increase the quality of service perception. Customer reviews can be used to automatically extract the most relevant aspects of the quality of service for hospitality clientele. This paper proposes a framework for the assessment of the quality of service in the hospitality sector based on the exploitation of customer reviews through natural language processing and machine learning methods. The proposed framework automatically discovers the quality of service aspects relevant to hotel customers. Hotel reviews from Bogotá and Madrid are automatically scrapped from Booking.com. Semantic information is inferred through Latent Dirichlet Allocation and FastText, which allow representing text reviews as vectors. A dimensionality reduction technique is applied to visualise and interpret large amounts of customer reviews. Visualisations of the most important quality of service aspects are generated, allowing to qualitatively and quantitatively assess the quality of service. Results show that it is possible to automatically extract the main quality of service aspects perceived by customers from large customer review datasets. These findings could be used by hospitality managers to understand clients better and to improve the quality of service.
