Eyak

description: This entry focuses on the Eyak living in the Copper River Delta, Alaska, around the time of 1890. The principal ethnographic source of information (Birket-Smith and De Laguna, 1938) reconstructs this focal time using informant testimony, written sources, and the account of American Colonel Abercrombie’s visit to the area in 1884. Reconstruction was necessary given that by the beginning of the 20th century, “…the 'civilizing' of the Eyak was practically complete, and they had almost ceased to exist as a separate tribal entity” (Birket-Smith and De Laguna, 1938:360-361). Consequently, limited information on the Eyak’s nonmaterial culture was available, making a description of Eyak religious beliefs and practices somewhat limited. However, enough information is available to gather a general picture these religious beliefs and practices. Overall, the Eyak beliefs are animistic in nature, as “all animate and inanimate things have souls or spirit ‘owners’” (Birket-Smith and De Laguna, 1938:230). The spirits of deceased human beings are present, but not described in detail. There is indication that the sun was important and worshipped in earlier times. Also present are a variety of supernatural beings (often associated with natural elements or meteorological phenomenon), such as the somewhat mythic Thunderbird, or the spirit in control of the Copper River. Magic plays an important role in daily life, including taboos and superstitions around subsistence activities. Fasting served as a means of invoking the supernatural, or (in addition to sexual abstinence) promoting ritual purity. Witches and shaman are both present, and could be either male or female. Witches are differentiated as they only use their powers for evil. Shamans, on the other hand, possess high esteem; they serve as ritual leaders, medical/supernatural healers, and can enter trance states to foresee future events. Informants believe their powers are possibly inherited somehow, and note that their spirit helper(s) manifest(s) in dreams. Shamans are not equivalent to chiefs, but chiefs can command the services of shaman. Because religion does not exist in a distinct realm, but is rather bound up with the functioning of society at large, this entry considers the religious group to be coterminous with the society itself.

description: La population enseignante est particulièrement touchée par le risque d’épuisement professionnel, d’une part à cause des éléments typiques du care qui caractérise le métier d'enseignant, d’autre part à cause de la charge élevé de travail, du comportement des élèves, de la pression temporelle, de l’administration scolaire et de l’ambiance générale à l’école. Ces éléments mettent l’enseignant·e face à des situations problématiques qu’il/elle doit choisir comment résoudre. Le conflit intérieur généré par le fait de devoir faire un choix est source de stress qui peut limiter la rationalité de l’individu. Le modèle du conflit décisionnel développé par Janis et Mann (1977) théorise quatre styles décisionnels que les individus peuvent adoptés : le style vigilant et trois styles inadaptés (transfert de responsabilité, procrastination, hypervigilance). Adopter un style inadapté semblerait avoir un impact négatif sur le bien-être de l’individu, ainsi, dans cette étude nous avons exploré le lien entre les différents styles décisionnels mis en œuvre par les enseignant·e·s vaudois·e·s du secondaire I et le burnout. Pour ce faire, nous avons réalisé une étude transversale auprès d’une population de 22 participant·e·s, soit 15 femmes et 7 hommes âgés de 27 à 60 ans, d’un établissement sécondaire I. Deux questionnaires, le Shirom-Melamed Burnout Measure (SMBM), adapté en français par Sassi et Neveu (2010), et le Melbourne Decision Making Questionnaire (MDMQ), adapté en français par Bailly et Ilharragorry-Devaux (2011), ont été complétés au cours de l’année scolaire 2021-2022. Les résultats dénotent des niveaux faibles de burnout, d’hypervigilance, de procrastination et de transfert de responsabilité et un niveau élevé de coping vigilant. Il émerge aussi que les enseignant·e·s avec un niveau de burnout élevé utiliseraient davantage la procrastination comme style décisionnel, et que la procrastination serait aussi plus utilisée par les hommes que par les femmes. En revanche aucun effet d’âge n’a été remarqué. En vue de la petite taille de notre échantillon des études ultérieurs seraient nécessaires pour approfondir cette recherche et prendre ensuite en considération de former les enseignant·e·s à une prise de décision adapté.

description: The ‘ultimate’ goal in teaching foreign languages has been proposed for many years as learner autonomy. To put it broadly, learner autonomy needs total responsibility for learning and independence instead of dependence on others. This study outlines six approaches—resource, technology, learner, classroom, curriculum, and teacher—that support the development of learner autonomy. To explore learner autonomy approaches through strategy-based Instruction, this study investigates two reading classes implemented by experienced lecturers at two Indonesian universities, private and public universities. The two lecturers used strategy-based instruction to teach EFL reading skills. This multiple case study lasted six months, collecting data from observation, semi-structured interviews, and students’ journals. Based on the Learner Autonomy approach framework, this study reveals that only five out of six approaches were used by the lecturer participants: While the resource-based approach and the technology approach were mainly employed for assignment after-reading activities, the learner, teacher, and classroom approach were used mainly to promote the learner autonomy. The implications show that educators or practitioners can use practical learner autonomy approaches through strategy-based instruction both within and outside the classroom. Researchers have been interested in studying how students take charge of their education. It is essential for students not to become dependent on others to become responsible and engaged members of society. In learning, learner autonomy is essential. The current study identified five learning approaches that the lecturers can use to develop the students’ autonomy through strategy-based instruction. The findings demonstrate that teaching reading through strategy-based instruction allowed students to take control of their education, establish objectives, organize their studies, assess their progress, and choose relevant resources. In general, learning necessitates individual learning for every student. It inspires them to learn throughout their lives and to develop into more resilient, capable, and powerful people. Lecturers must provide students with a range of self-directed learning techniques.

description: Decades of semiconductor technology scaling and breakthroughs in communication technology have miniaturized computing, embedding it everywhere, enabling the development of smart things connected to the internet, forming the Internet of Things. Further miniaturization of devices has led to an exponential increase in the number of devices in and around the body in the last decade, forming a subset of IoT which is increasingly becoming popular as the Internet of Bodies (IoB). The gradual shift from the current form of human-electronics coexistence to human-electronics cooperation, is the vision of Internet of Bodies (IoB). This vision of a connected future with devices in and around our body talking to each other to assist their day-to-day functions demands energy efficient means of communication. Electro-Quasistatic Human Body Communication (EQS-HBC) has been proposed as an exciting alternative to traditional Radio Frequency based methodologies for communicating data around the body. In this dissertation, we expand the boundaries of wearable and implantable IoB nodes using Electro-Quasistatic Human Body Communication and Powering by developing advanced channel models and demonstrating novel applications.Leveraging the advanced channel models developed for wearable EQS-HBC, we demonstrate wearable applications like ToSCom which extend the use cases of touchscreens to beyond touch detection and location to enable high-speed communication strictly through touch. We further demonstrate an application of EQS Resonant Human Body Powering to demonstrate Step-to-Charge, allowing mW-scale wireless power transfer to wearable devices. With increasing connected implanted healthcare devices becoming a part of the IoB space, we benchmark RF-based technologies for In-Body to Out-of-Body (IBOB) communication using novel in-vivo experiments. We then explore EQS-HBC in the realm of IBOB communication using advanced channel modeling, revealing its potential for low-power and physically secure data transfer from implantable devices to wearable nodes on the body, demonstrating its potential in extending the battery life span of implantable nodes. Finally, an overview of the potential of IoB devices is analyzed with the use of EQS-HBC where we propose a human-inspired distributed network of IoB nodes which brings us a step closer to the potential for perpetually operable devices in and around the body.

description: Purpose: Linguistically diverse children face health disparities in special education services in part due to limited linguistic responsivity in communication assessment practices. This study uses the first application of the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) to reveal the various factors that affect the implementation of linguistically responsive practices and their respective barriers and facilitators.Method: Two focus groups were conducted in Oregon with a total of nine speech-language pathologists, most of whom were multilingual. A deductive and inductive analytical approach in a two-stage process was employed, whereby barriers and facilitators were deductively coded using TDF domains (content analysis) and analyzed for subthemes within each domain as well as barriers and facilitators for each domain. Barriers and facilitators were summarized across overarching themes.Results: A total of 33 themes were extracted from all the domains. The most commonly coded TDF domains in the focus group transcript were knowledge (69%), beliefs about consequences (48%), and environmental context and resources (33%). The overarching themes identified across domains were related to the role of family, flexibility and adaptability, limitations of assessment tools, need for help through experts, research and training, and approach to language differences.Conclusions: The findings from this study offer a precise initial characterization of the barriers and facilitators to linguistically responsive communication assessment of children from birth to age 5 years. Future research should focus on supporting facilitators while eliminating barriers to ensure equitable service provision for all children.Supplemental Material S1.

description: We present a new approach to tuning fork-based atomic force microscopy for utilizing advanced "tip-on-chip" probes with high sensitivity and broad compatibility. Usually, such chip-like probes with a size reaching 2 mm x 2 mm drastically perturb the oscillation of the tuning fork, resulting in poor performance in its intrinsic force sensing. Therefore, restoring initial oscillatory characteristics is necessary for regaining high sensitivity. To this end, we developed a new approach consisting of three basic steps: tuning fork rebalancing, revamping holder-sensor fixation, and electrode reconfiguration. Mass rebalancing allows the tuning fork to recover the frequency and regain high Q-factor values up to 10E4 in air and up to 4 x 10E4 in ultra-high vacuum conditions. The floating-like holder-fixation using soft wires significantly reduces energy dissipation from the mounting elements. Combined with the soft wires, reconfigured electrodes provide electrical access to the chip-like probe without intervening in the force-sensing signal. Finally, our easy-to-implement approach allows converting the atomic force microscopy-tip from a passive tool to a dedicated microdevice with extended functionality.

description: In this work, we have performed numerical simulations of primordial black hole (PBH) formation in the Friedman-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker universe filled by radiation fluid, introducing the local-type non-Gaussianity to the primordial curvature fluctuation. We have compared the numerical results from simulations with previous analytical estimations on the threshold value for PBH formation done in the previous paper arXiv:2109.00791, particularly for negative values of the non-linearity parameter $f_{\rm NL}$. Our numerical results show the existence of PBH formation of (the so-called) type I also in the case $f_{\rm NL} \lesssim -0.336$, which was not found in the previous analytical expectations using the critical averaged compaction function. In particular, although the universal value for the averaged critical compaction function $\bar{\mathcal{C}}_{c}=2/5$ found previously in the literature is not satisfied for all the profiles considered in this work, an alternative direct analytical estimate has been found to be roughly accurate to estimate the thresholds, which gives the value of the critical averaged density with a few $\%$ deviation from the numerical one for $f_{\rm NL}\gtrsim -1$.

Huron also known as “Wendat”

Publisher: name: Database of Religious History (DRH)
Year: 2019

description: This entry is based upon ethnographic materials that reconstruct the Huron society prior to cultural changes as a result of outside influence. Reconstruction is made possible from accounts written by European traders and Jesuit missionaries during early contacts with the Huron. This entry focuses on the Bear (Attignawantan) and Cord (Attigneenongnahac) subtribes around the time of 1634, which were located between Lake Simcoe and the Georgian Bay in what is now Ontario, Canada. These two subtribes are the largest and oldest of the four Huron subtribes (the other two being the Tahontaenrat and Arendahronon). At the focal time of 1634, the village was the primary unit of daily life, encompassing social, economic, and religious importance. The village was led by a council of elders, a war chief, and a general chief. However, this varied by village and sometimes several chiefs were present. Leaders acted as a council, with no chief outranking others, and holding their position on the basis of ability, experience, success, courage, etc. Religion did not have its own distinct sphere in Huron society, rather, it was a part of all Huron beliefs and practices; “to them, their religion and way of life were one and the same” (Trigger, 1976:75). Consequently, this entry considers the religious group to be coterminous with the society. The Huron did not have religious specialists (e.g. a shaman or priest position), rather, chiefs often held ritual offices and duties in addition to their secular roles. The religion did not have a well-defined pantheon of supernatural beings, but the most important deity is the sky, serving as a present but otiose high god. Also present are previously human spirits, but these beings are not discussed in extensive ethnographic details. Non-human supernatural beings include Iouskeha and Aataentsic (two of the most important, bestpersonified, and most described beings), as well as “… animate spirits [that] resided in the earth, the rivers, lakes, certain rocks, and the sky and had control over journeying, trading, war feasts, disease, and other matters" (Tooker, 1964:80). Religious observances (e.g. taboos, superstitions) were associated with almost all aspects of Huron life, such as subsistence strategies and life cycle events. Four types of feasts were held, including singing (celebratory) feasts, thanksgiving feasts, curing feasts, and farewell feasts.

description: We present a communication-efficient surrogate likelihood (CSL) framework for solving distributed statistical inference problems. CSL provides a communication-efficient surrogate to the global likelihood that can be used for low-dimensional estimation, high-dimensional regularized estimation, and Bayesian inference. For low-dimensional estimation, CSL provably improves upon naive averaging schemes and facilitates the construction of confidence intervals. For high-dimensional regularized estimation, CSL leads to a minimax-optimal estimator with controlled communication cost. For Bayesian inference, CSL can be used to form a communication-efficient quasi-posterior distribution that converges to the true posterior. This quasi-posterior procedure significantly improves the computational efficiency of Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms even in a nondistributed setting. We present both theoretical analysis and experiments to explore the properties of the CSL approximation. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

description: The Sydney University Giant Air-shower Recorder (SUGAR) measured the muon component of extensive air showers with a unique array of muon detectors. The SUGAR data allow us to reconstruct the empirical dependence of muon density on the distance from the axis of the shower, the lateral distribution function (LDF). We compare the shape of this function with the predictions of hadronic-interaction models, QGSJET-II-04 and EPOS-LHC, in the energy range 10^17.6 - 10^18.6 eV. We find a difference between the observed data and the simulation: the observed muon density falls faster with the increased core distance than it is predicted in simulations. This observation may be important for interpretation of the energy-dependent discrepancies in the simulated and observed numbers of muons in air showers, known as the "muon excess".

description: The spectroscopic parameters as well as electromagnetic form factor of the strange particle kaon are investigated in vacuum and a medium with finite density. The obtained vacuum mass and decay constant, which are consistent with the existing experimental results, are used to extract the $ Q^2 $ dependence of the kaon electromagnetic form factor in the interval $Q^2\in [0,10]$ GeV$^2$ in vacuum. The obtained results at lower and intermediate values of $ Q^2 $ are consistent with the existing experimental data within the presented uncertainties. The $ Q^2 $ behavior of the electromagnetic form factor of kaon in vacuum and in the interval $Q^2\in [0,6]$ GeV$^2$ is in a nice agreement with the existing predictions of the Lattice QCD and the solution of the Bethe-Salpeter equation for the model of Nambu and Jona-Lasinio (NJL) with proper-time regularization, as well. The obtained vacuum radius for kaon is also in a nice agreement with the world's average experimental result. We extend the analyses to a medium with higher densities and obtain the behavior of the mass, decay constant, electromagnetic form factor and radius with respect to density. The obtained results for some of the parameters are compared with the existing predictions of other models and approaches. The results obtained in the present study can be useful for future experimental and theoretical studies both in vacuum and a dense medium.

description: Zombie States are a recently introduced formalism to describe coupled coherent Fermionic states which address the Fermionic sign problem in a computationally tractable manner. Previously it has been shown that Zombie States with fractional occupations of spin-orbitals obeyed the correct Fermionic creation and annihilation algebra and presented results for real-time evolution [Dmitrii V. Shalashilin, J. Chem. Phys. 148, 194109 (2018)]. In this work we extend and build on this formalism by developing efficient algorithms for evaluating the Hamiltonian and other operators between Zombie States and address their normalization. We also show how imaginary time propagation can be used to find the ground state of a system. We also present a biasing method, for setting up a basis set of random Zombie States, that allow much smaller basis sizes to be used while still accurately describing the electronic structure Hamiltonian and its ground state and describe a technique of wave function "cleaning" which removes the contributions of configurations with the wrong number of electrons, improving the accuracy further. We also show how low-lying excited states can be calculated efficiently using a Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization procedure.The proposed algorithm of imaginary time propagation on a biased random grids of Zombie States may present an alternative to existing Quantum Monte Carlo methods.

description: In order to extract the precise physical information encoded in the gravitational and electromagnetic signals from powerful neutron-star merger events, we need to include as much of the relevant physics as possible in our numerical simulations. This presents a severe challenge, given that many of the involved parameters are poorly constrained. In this paper we focus on the role of nuclear reactions. Combining a theoretical discussion with an analysis connecting to state-of-the-art simulations, we outline multiple arguments that lead to a reactive system being described in terms of a bulk viscosity. The results demonstrate that in order to properly account for nuclear reactions, future simulations must be able to handle different regimes where rather different assumptions/approximations are appropriate. We also touch upon the link to models based on the large-eddy-strategy required to capture turbulence.

description: People living or working in the Arctic are faced with uncertainty regarding future social, political, economic, and environmental change. This uncertainty is due not least to the ongoing transformations caused by climate change. This paper presents results from a project entitled “Yamal 2040: Scenarios for the Russian Arctic”, which employed ‘Strategic Foresight’, a specific co-design and engagement methodology, to support stakeholders of one particular region in the Arctic, the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug (Yamal region) in Western Siberia, Russia. It was the project’s objective to respond to this situation of general uncertainty, to develop forward-looking scenarios to better understand the risks and opportunities associated with future transformations in the Arctic. The findings presented here may be of interest for stakeholders in other parts of the Arctic and Russia that depend on the exploitation of fossil fuels and/or are facing complex and uncertain situations.

description: In the fields of neuroimaging and genetics, a key goal is testing the association of a single outcome with a very high-dimensional imaging or genetic variable. Often, summary measures of the high-dimensional variable are created to sequentially test and localize the association with the outcome. In some cases, the associations between the outcome and summary measures are significant, but subsequent tests used to localize differences are underpowered and do not identify regions associated with the outcome. Here, we propose a generalization of Rao’s score test based on projecting the score statistic onto a linear subspace of a high-dimensional parameter space. The approach provides a way to localize signal in the high-dimensional space by projecting the scores to the subspace where the score test was performed. This allows for inference in the high-dimensional space to be performed on the same degrees of freedom as the score test, effectively reducing the number of comparisons. Simulation results demonstrate the test has competitive power relative to others commonly used. We illustrate the method by analyzing a subset of the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative dataset. Results suggest cortical thinning of the frontal and temporal lobes may be a useful biological marker of Alzheimer’s disease risk. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

description: We present a communication-efficient surrogate likelihood (CSL) framework for solving distributed statistical inference problems. CSL provides a communication-efficient surrogate to the global likelihood that can be used for low-dimensional estimation, high-dimensional regularized estimation, and Bayesian inference. For low-dimensional estimation, CSL provably improves upon naive averaging schemes and facilitates the construction of confidence intervals. For high-dimensional regularized estimation, CSL leads to a minimax-optimal estimator with controlled communication cost. For Bayesian inference, CSL can be used to form a communication-efficient quasi-posterior distribution that converges to the true posterior. This quasi-posterior procedure significantly improves the computational efficiency of Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms even in a nondistributed setting. We present both theoretical analysis and experiments to explore the properties of the CSL approximation. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

Searching for the origin of the Ehrenreich effect in ultra-hot Jupiters: Evidence for strong C/O gradients in the atmosphere of WASP-76b?

description: Extreme temperature contrasts between the day and nightside of ultra-hot Jupiters result in significantly asymmetric atmospheres, with a large expansion occurring over a small range of longitude around the terminator. Over the course of a transit, WASP-76b rotates by about 30 degree, changing the observable part of the atmosphere and invoking variations in the appearance of its constituents. As recently reported, this results in time-variable effects in the neutral iron signal, which are amplified by its possible condensation on the nightside. Here, we study the presence of molecular signals during a transit of WASP-76b observed with the CARMENES spectrograph and compare the contributions from this planet's morning and evening terminators. The results are somewhat puzzling, with formal detections of water vapor (5.5$σ$) and hydrogen cyanide (5.2$σ$) but at significantly different positions in the K$_p$-V$_{sys}$ diagram, with a blueshift of -14.3 $\pm$ 2.6 km/s and a redshift of $+$20.8 $^{+7.8}_{-3.9}$ km/s respectively, and a higher K$_p$ than expected. The H$_2$O signal also appears stronger later on in the transit, in contrast to that of HCN, which seems stronger early on. We tentatively explain this by silicate clouds forming and raining out on the nightside, partially removing oxygen from the upper atmosphere. For C/O values between 0.7 and 1, this leads to the formation of HCN at the morning limb. At the evening terminator, with the sequestered oxygen being returned to the gas phase due to evaporation, these C/O values lead to formation of H$_2$O instead of HCN. If confirmed, these results indicate that individual molecules trace different parts of the atmosphere, as well as nightside condensation, allowing spatial characterization. As these results are based on a single transit, we advocate that more data are needed to confirm them and further explore these scenarios.

description: Studying and interpreting the different flow patterns present in urban areas is becoming essential since they help develop new approaches to fight climate change through an improved understanding of the dynamics of the pollutants in urban environments. This study uses higher order dynamic mode decomposition (HODMD) to analyze a high-fidelity database of the turbulent flow in various simplified urban environments. The geometry simulated consists of two buildings separated by a certain distance. Three different cases have been studied, corresponding to the three different regimes identified in the bibliography. We recognize the characteristics of the well-known arch vortex forming on the leeward side of the first building and document possible generation and destruction mechanisms of this vortex based on the resulting temporal modes. These so-called vortex-generating and vortex-breaking modes are further analyzed via proper-orthogonal decomposition. We show that the arch vortex plays a prominent role in the dispersion of pollutants in urban environments, where its generation leads to an increase in their concentration; therefore, the reported mechanisms are of extreme importance in the context of urban sustainability.

description: Against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, health is receiving unprecedented public and political attention. Yet the fact that climate change also presents us with a health crisis deserves further recognition. From more deaths due to heat stress to increased transmission of infectious diseases, climate change affects the social and environmental determinants of health in ways that are profound and far-reaching. The fundamental interdependency of human health and the health of the environment is encapsulated in the concept of planetary health, a scientific field and social movement that has been gaining force since the 2015 publication of the Rockefeller Foundation-Lancet Commission report “Safeguarding human health in the Anthropocene epoch”. We see an urgent need for strategic communication to raise awareness of climate-health synergies in order to overcome the misperception that climate and health are two independent agendas. The fragmented and sector-focused nature of thinking and action remains a significant barrier to integrating health considerations into climate planning and project development. Inevitably, collaboration across sectors requires a community of practice. Despite recent efforts focused on the climate-health nexus, much work remains to be done to translate scientific findings for policymakers, mobilise climate financing resources in support of health co-benefits, and promote genderjust solutions within climate change projects.
