description: The main objectives of this projects are the manufacturing process of PET bottle preforms for consumable drinks using ‘Grade A’ PET material and also design, and analysis of the strength and quality of the PET bottle preforms for consumable drinks. About 60% of the world’s PET is used in the manufacture of artificial fibers with bottle manufacturing bookkeeping about 30% of global request. Polyethylene terephthalate PET or polyester is the fourth most made polymer after Polyethylene PE, Polypropylene PP and Polyvinyl Chloride PVC. The chemical formula of Polyethylene terephthalate PET or polyester is (C10H8O4)n, having a molar mass between 10-50kg/mol and density of 1.38 g/cm3 at 20 °C, 1.370 g/cm3 (amorphous) and 1.455 g/cm3 (single crystal). It’s melting and boiling points are 250 °C < 260 °C and > 350 °C respectively. It is insoluble in water and has a thermal conductivity of 0.15 to 0.24 W/(m·K) and heat capacity of 1.0 kJ/(kg·K). The resultant bottle preforms yields by the mold is characteristically hygienic and has extraordinary accuracy but infrequent cases of alternating may occur at the bottle seams, where two mold halves meets. In such cases, operators sleek away the glut plastic and add it to the regrind for reuse. The engineering process of the PET plastic bottle water is done using an injection molding machine (for the preform)

description: Manifestations of the solar magnetic activity through periodicities of about 11 and 2 years are now clearly seen in all solar activity indices.In this paper, we add information about the mechanism driving the 2 year period by studying the time and latitudinal properties of acoustic modes that are sensitive probes of the subsurface layers. We use almost 17 years of high quality resolved data provided by the Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG) to investigate the solar cycle changes in p-mode frequencies for spherical degrees l from 0 to 120 and 1.6 mHz < nu < 3.5 mHz. For both periodic components of solar activity, we locate the origin of the frequency shift in the subsurface layers and put in evidence for a sudden enhancement in amplitude just in the last few hundred kilometers. We also show that, in both cases, the size of the shift increases towards equatorial latitudes and from minimum to maximum of solar activity, but, in agreement with previous findings,the quasi-biennial periodicity (QBP) causes a weaker shift in mode frequencies and a slower enhancement than the one caused by the 11 year cycle. We compare our observational findings with the features predicted by different models that try to explain the origin of this QBP and conclude that the observed propertiescould result from the beating between a dipole and quadrupole magnetic configuration of the dynamo.

description: The electronic structure of the honeycomb lattice iridates Na2IrO3 and Li2IrO3 has been investigated using resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS). Crystal-field split d-d excitations are resolved in the high-resolution RIXS spectra. In particular, the splitting due to non-cubic crystal fields, derived from the splitting of j_eff=3/2 states, is much smaller than the typical spin-orbit energy scale in iridates, validating the applicability of j_eff physics in A2IrO3. We also find excitonic enhancement of the particle-hole excitation gap around 0.4 eV, indicating that the nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction could be large. These findings suggest that both Na2IrO3 and Li2IrO3 can be described as spin-orbit Mott insulators, similar to the square lattice iridate Sr2IrO4.

description: We present results based on Chandra observations of a large sample of 129 hot galaxy clusters. We measure the concentration parameter c_200, the dark mass M_200 and the baryonic mass content in all the objects of our sample, providing the largest dataset of mass parameters for galaxy clusters in the redshift range z = 0.01 - 1.4. We confirm a that a tight correlation between c_200 and M_200, c \propto M^a_vir /(1+z)^b with a = -0.56 +/- 0.15 and b =0.80 +/- 0.25 (68 per cent confidence limits), is present, in good agreement with the predictions from numerical simulations and previous observations. Fitting the mass profile with a generalized NFW model, we got the inner slope alpha, with alpha = 0.94 +/- 0.13. Finally, we show that the inner slope of the density profile, alpha correlates with the baryonic mass content, M_b : namely alpha is decreasing with increasing baryonic mass content.

description: We report the detection of a double planetary system orbiting around the evolved intermediate-mass star HD 4732 from precise Doppler measurements at Okayama Astrophysical Observatory (OAO) and Anglo-Australian Observatory (AAO). The star is a K0 subgiant with a mass of 1.7 M_sun and solar metallicity. The planetary system is composed of two giant planets with minimum mass of msini=2.4 M_J, orbital period of 360.2 d and 2732 d, and eccentricity of 0.13 and 0.23, respectively. Based on dynamical stability analysis for the system, we set the upper limit on the mass of the planets to be about 28 M_J (i>5 deg) in the case of coplanar prograde configuration.

description: The Arctic Ocean and its coastal areas are especially vulnerable to climate change. Its ecosystem is rapidly changing in response to temperature increase, loss of sea ice, and the combined effects of additional stressors such as freshwater input and legacy pollutants. However, the scientific community currently lacks sufficient information on the mechanisms and drivers behind the biogeochemical cycling of these additional inputs and the consequences that may arise for the Arctic environment. In August 2021, water samples were collected in 5 offshore transects along the coast of West Greenland between Nuuk and Disko Bugt. The aim of the ongoing study is to understand the mechanism of trace metal and carbon cycling in polar coastal areas that are influenced by meltwater fluxes from retreating glaciers, icebergs and sea ice. Therefore, filtered water samples (< 45 µm) were subjected to multi-element analysis via ICP-MS and measured for further parameters such as alkalinity (AT), dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and nutrients. Our preliminary results show distinct element distribution patterns and fluxes in the water column from coast to ocean as well as along the coastline, helping identify the biogeochemical behavior of different trace metals. Additionally, the difference of various freshwater sources on altering the CO2 system can be illustrated. Along the coastline, we see a prominent influence of glacial meltwater from the Greenland Ice Sheet whereas offshore stations are more affected by the melting sea ice cover. The collected data provides first valuable insights into biogeochemical processes and carbon sequestration in high-latitude coastal regions affected by climate change and thus help predict future changes and impacts on Arctic ecosystems. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under Grant Agreement No. 869383 (ECOTIP).

description: 176P/LINEAR is a member of the new cometary class known as main-belt comets (MBCs). It displayed cometary activity shortly during its 2005 perihelion passage that may be driven by the sublimation of sub-surface ices. We have therefore searched for emission of the H2O 110-101 ground state rotational line at 557 GHz toward 176P/LINEAR with the Heterodyne Instrument for the Far Infrared (HIFI) on board the Herschel Space Observatory on UT 8.78 August 2011, about 40 days after its most recent perihelion passage, when the object was at a heliocentric distance of 2.58 AU. No H2O line emission was detected in our observations, from which we derive sensitive 3-sigma upper limits for the water production rate and column density of < 4e25 molec/s and of < 3e10 cm^{-2}, respectively. From the peak brightness measured during the object's active period in 2005, this upper limit is lower than predicted by the relation between production rates and visual magnitudes observed for a sample of comets by Jorda et al. (2008) at this heliocentric distance. Thus, 176P/LINEAR was likely less active at the time of our observation than during its previous perihelion passage. The retrieved upper limit is lower than most values derived for the H2O production rate from the spectroscopic search for CN emission in MBCs.

Behind the blue wall: navigating value conflicts with law enforcement officers within a theraputic context
Creators: name: Stoppiello, Michael T.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2022

description: Given the increased national attention placed on police misconduct and civilian shootings in recent years and the well-documented mental health stigma within law enforcement culture, clinicians are likely to encounter value conflicts in providing therapeutic services to law enforcement officers (LEOs) (Karaffa & Koch, 2016; Lawrence, 2000; Moule, Fox, & Parry, 2019). However, the literature on serving LEO patients largely neglects value conflicts and fails to tackle how clinicians can address value conflicts effectively in the context of therapeutic relationship (Crank, 2014; Papazoglou & Tuttle, 2018). To this end, the present study examined the experiences of clinicians working with LEO patients, with a focus on understanding how these clinicians experience and navigate value conflicts in the therapeutic relationship. Eight clinicians who regularly work with LEOs in their scope of practice were recruited and interviewed using a semi-structured, qualitative interview schedule. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) was used as a method of analysis to capture the lived experiences of participants in their work with LEOs. Four central themes emerged from the analysis: LEO Identity as a Barrier (to addressing mental health needs), Hidden Mental Health Costs of Being an LEO, Strategies for Providing Treatment to LEOs, and Personal Impact of Treating LEOs on Clinicians. Key features of these themes and their practical applications for theory, training and clinical practice were elaborated upon, in connection with the current cultural climate surrounding law enforcement and the scope of therapy as an agent for social change. Further research is needed to examine the various personal impacts of working with LEOs on clinicians, how these factors may vary based on racial identity, gender, and civilian experiences with law enforcement, and to determine adequate supports for clinicians to effectively address value conflicts with LEO patients.

description: In April 2020, University of Tennessee (UT) Extension conducted a survey of hemp growers and hemp industry stakeholders. The survey consisted of 16 questions to illicit opinions regarding 2019 and 2020 hemp production in Tennessee. The survey was emailed to UT county Extension agents, area specialists and state specialists to be distributed to producers and other hemp industry stakeholders. Survey results depict the answers and opinions of the 600 respondents who completed at least one survey question. The following information has been collected to show an overview of production, marketing and risk management practices used in the 2019 and 2020 production years. While readers can draw their own conclusions, our analysis of the results indicated that producers faced numerous challenges during the 2019 production year. Two of the largest challenges were securing a viable market or processor for their production and variation/uncertainty in pricing of the end product. On the positive side, in spite of a lack of established production methods, producers were able to successfully grow a crop, with average plant losses of only 19 percent and average yields per plant of 2.0 lb for biomass and 1.1 lb per plant for flower. Partially due to marketing challenges, the 2020 production level is anticipated to be lower than 2019. Additionally, due to bad experiences in 2019 with contracts, fewer growers are signing contracts with processors or purchasers. Despite the marketing challenges and a lack of regulatory clarity, many producers and stakeholders are willing to continue investing in the emerging hemp industry in Tennessee. The long-term structure and viability of the industrial hemp industry in Tennessee remains highly uncertain.

description: The Campanelli-Lousto solutions of Brans-Dicke theory, usually reported as black holes are reconsidered and shown to describe, according to the values of a parameter, wormholes or naked singularities. The veiled Schwarzschild metric recently used as an example to discuss conformal frames and their equivalence corresponds to a special case of the CL metric. The conformal cousins of these solutions, and of the Riegert black hole solution of conformally invariant Weyl theory, are analysed, leading to a word of caution when interpreting physically spacetimes generated via conformal transformations from known seed solutions.

description: Security of wireless sensor network (WSN) is always considered a critical issue and has a number of considerations that separate them from traditional wireless sensor network. First, sensor devices are typically vulnerable to physical compromise. Second, they have significant power and processing constraints. Third, the most critical security issue is protecting the aggregate output of the system, even if individual nodes may be compromised. While a variety of security techniques are being developed and lots of researches are going on security fields. In this paper we have proposed a new technique to provide data authentication and privacy in faster, scalable and cost effective way.

Three areas of artifact concentration; designated NA15,779, were identified within a plowed field area, indicating possible site utilization by the Hohokam between the late Colonial and the Classic periods. Backhoe trenching is recommended within the artifact concentration areas to determine if undisturbed cultural deposits remain beneath the field plow zone.

description: Quantum coherent light-matter interactions have been at the forefront of scientific interest since the fundamental predictions of Einstein and the later work of Rabi. Direct observation of quantum coherent interactions entails probing the electronic wavefunction which requires that the electronic state of the matter does not de-phase during the measurement, a condition that can be satisfied by lengthening the coherence time or by shortening the observation time. The short de-phasing time in semiconductors has dictated that all coherent effects reported to date have been recorded directly only at cryogenic temperatures. Here we report on the first direct electronic wavefunction probing in a room-temperature semiconductor. Employing an ultrafast characterization scheme we have demonstrated Rabi oscillations and self-induced transparency in an electrically driven, room-temperature semiconductor laser amplifier, revealing the most intimate details of the light-matter interactions seen to date. The ability to employ quantum effects in solid-state media, which operate at elevated temperatures, will finally bring true quantum mechanical concepts into the realm of practical devices.

description: A 55 acre parcel of private land adjacent to the' existing Salt River Project Kyrene Steam Generating Plant was surveyed by the Museum of Northern Arizona in March, 1979. At that time three areas of artifact concentrations were noted and the area was designated NA15,779. The previous investigator (Keller 1979) recommended backhoe trenching within the areas of artifact concentration to determine if undisturbed cultural deposits remain beneath the field plow zone. This investigation placed six backhoe trenches in the three areas and found no significant intact cultural resources. Five of the trenches failed to reveal any undisturbed cultural material, while one trench exposed part of a pit filled with cultural debris. Archaeological clearance for the parcel is recommended.

Using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.2 fb$^{-1}$ collected by the CDF II detector in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96 ~TeV$ at the Fermilab Tevatron, we measure the $t\bar{t}$ cross section, $σ_{t\bar{t}}$, and the top-quark mass, M$_{top}$. We extract M$_{top}$ from a likelihood based on per-event probabilities calculated with leading-order signal and background matrix elements. We measure $σ_{t\bar{t}} = 8.8 \pm 3.3 ~(\mathrm{stat}) \pm 2.2 ~(\mathrm{syst}) ~\mathrm{pb}$ and M$_{top} = 172.7 \pm 9.3 ~(\mathrm{stat}) \pm 3.7 ~(\mathrm{syst}) ~GeV/c^2$.

description: We consider the problem of constructing efficient P2P overlays for sensornets providing "Energy-Level Application and Services". The method presented in \cite{SOPXM09} presents a novel P2P overlay for Energy Level discovery in a sensornet. However, this solution is not dynamic, since requires periodical restructuring. In particular, it is not able to support neither join of sensor\_nodes with energy level out of the ranges supported by the existing p2p overlay nor leave of \emph{empty} overlay\_peers to which no sensor\_nodes are currently associated. On this purpose and based on the efficient P2P method presented in \cite{SPSTMT10}, we design a dynamic P2P overlay for Energy Level discovery in a sensornet, the so-called SART (Sensors' Autonomous Range Tree). The adaptation of the P2P index presented in \cite{SPSTMT10} guarantees the best-known dynamic query performance of the above operation. We experimentally verify this performance, via the D-P2P-Sim simulator (D-P2P-Sim is publicly available at http://code.google.com/p/d-p2p-sim/).

description: We investigate the thermoelectric propeties of the electron-doped FeAs$_2$ both experimentally and theoretically. Electrons are doped by partially substituting Se for As, which leads to a metallic behavior in the resistivity. A Seebeck coefficient of about $-$200 $μ$V/K is reached at 300 K for 1% doping, and about $-$120 $μ$V/K even at 5% doping. The origin of this large Seebeck coefficient despite the metallic conductivity is analyzed from a band structure point of view. The first-principles band calculation reveals the presence of a pudding-mold type band just above the band gap, somewhat similar to Na$_x$CoO$_2$, but with a quasi-one-dimensional nature. We calculate the Seebeck coefficient using a tightbinding model that correctly reproduces this band structure, and this gives results close to the experimental observations. The origin of this peculiar band shape is also discussed.

description: Energy meter reading is a monotonous and an expensive task. Now the meter reader people goes to each meter and take the meter reading manually to issue the bill which will later be entered in the billing software for billing and payment automation. If the manual meter reading and bill data entry process can be automated then it would reduced the laborious task and financial wastage. "Automatic Electric Meter Reading (AMR) System" is a metering system that is to be used for data collecting from the meter and processing the collected data for billing and other decision purposes. In this paper we have proposed an automatic meter reading system which is low cost, high performance, highest data rate, highest coverage area and most appropriate for Bangladesh perspective. In this AMR system there are four basic units. They are reading unit, communication unit, data receiving and processing unit and billing system. For reading unit we identified the disk rotation of the energy meter and stored the data in microcontroller. So it is not required to change the current analog energy meter. An external module will be added with the current energy meter. In the communication unit Wimax transceiver was used for wireless communication between meter end and the server end because of its wide coverage area. In the data receiving and processing unit meter reading will be collected from the transceiver which is controlled by another microcontroller. There will be a computer application that will take the data from the microcontroller. This will also help to avoid any tampering or break down of energy meter. There are various AMR system exists all over the world. Those systems were analyzed and we found they are not feasible for Bangladesh.

description: Five characteristic temperatures of TM = 148 K, TN = 142 K, Tt = 138 K, Tf ~ 125 K and Tg ~ 50 K were found by the measurements of the magnetization curves at various temperature. The spontaneous magnetization appears below TM. It increases up to M_{S} simeq 2 times 10^{-4} mu_{B} at Tt and then decreases steeply below Tt, which qualitatively agrees with the temperature dependence of magnetization obtained under field-cooling (FC) condition. On the other hand, the slope of the magnetization curve, namely the magnetic susceptibility, drops below TN, which coincides with the temperature dependence of magnetization obtained under zero-FC condition, although the magnetization curves were obtained under FC condition. The temperature dependence of the spontaneous magnetization shows a minimum at Tf and a drop at Tg although there is no anomaly in the temperature dependence of FC or ZFC magnetization.

description: In a 5 hour Halpha exposure of the N-W region of the Coma cluster with the 2.1m telescope at SPM (Mx) we discovered a 65 kpc cometary emission of ionized gas trailing behind the SBab galaxy NGC 4848. The tail points in the opposite direction of the cluster center, in the same direction where stripped HI has been detected in previous observations. The galaxy shows bright HII regions in an inner ring-like pattern, where the star formation takes place at the prodigious rate of 8.9 Msun/yr. From the morphology of the galaxy and of the trailing material, we infer that the galaxy is suffering from ram pressure due to its high velocity motion through the cluster IGM. We estimate that 4 x 10^9 Msun of gas is swept out from the galaxy forming the tail. Given the ambient conditions in the Coma cluster (rho = 6.3 x 10^-27 g/cm^3; sigma_vel = 940 km/s) simulations predict that the ram pressure mechanism is able to remove such an amount of gas in less than 200 Myr. This, combined with the geometry of the interaction, indicating radial infall into the cluster, leads to the conclusion that NGC 4848 is caught in its first passage through the dense cluster environment.

description: We solve the problem of quantum state discrimination with "general (symmetric) figures of merit" for an even number of symmetric quantum bits with use of the no-signaling principle. It turns out that conditional probability has the same form for any figure of merit. Optimal measurement and corresponding conditional probability are the same for any monotonous figure of merit.

description: Because networks can be used to represent many complex systems, they have attracted considerable attention in physics, computer science, sociology, and many other disciplines. One of the most important areas of network science is the algorithmic detection of cohesive groups (i.e., "communities") of nodes. In this paper, we algorithmically detect communities in social networks and image data by optimizing multislice modularity. A key advantage of modularity optimization is that it does not require prior knowledge of the number or sizes of communities, and it is capable of finding network partitions that are composed of communities of different sizes. By optimizing multislice modularity and subsequently calculating diagnostics on the resulting network partitions, it is thereby possible to obtain information about network structure across multiple system scales. We illustrate this method on data from both social networks and images, and we find that optimization of multislice modularity performs well on these two tasks without the need for extensive problem-specific adaptation. However, improving the computational speed of this method remains a challenging open problem.

description: We discuss the prospects for production and detection of fermiophobic bosons (exotic bosons decaying only to standard model gauge bosons) at the LHC, and describe simple methods for determining spin. We consider two complementary approaches to spin determination: the search for decays in the diphoton channel, and the comparison of events with no extra spectator jets to those with one extra jet. We show that these approaches can together allow the fermiophobic bosons spin to be determined over a wide range of parameter space. We study both even and odd parity states.

description: The non-trivialness of a topological insulator (TI) is characterized either by a bulk topological invariant or by the existence of a protected metallic surface state. Yet, in realistic samples of finite size this non-trivialness does not necessarily guarantee the gaplessness of the surface state. Depending on the geometry and on the topological indices, a finite-size energy gap of different nature can appear, and correspondingly, exhibits various scaling behaviors of the gap. The spin-to-surface locking provides one of such gap-opening mechanisms, resulting in a power-law scaling of the energy gap. Weak and strong TI's show different degrees of sensitivity to the geometry of the sample. As a noteworthy example, a strong TI nanowire of a rectangular prism shape is shown to be more gapped than that of a weak TI of precisely the same geometry.

Tepperia

description: Genus Tepperia Lea, 1903
Tepperia Lea, 1903: 660; Marshall, 1936: 195 (in key;
type species designation: Tepperia sterculiae Lea, 1903); Alonso-Zarazaga & Lyal, 1999: 128 (cataloged; Cryptorhynchini: Cryptorhynchina; type species: “NYD”).
Diagnosis. This genus can be distinguished from other genera of Cryptorhynchina by a combination of the following characteristics: rostrum stout; frons wider than half width of an eye; basal margin of each elytron rounded near scutellar shield; legs short; each femur ventrally with a median tooth; meso- and metatibiae angulate basally along outer margins; mesoventral receptacle cavernous, projecting ventrally; and ventrite II nearly as long as III and IV combined (Lea 1903 & 1913; Marshall 1936).
Distribution. Australia; the Philippines, Taiwan, and Japan — new records.
Remarks. Alonso-Zarazaga and Lyal (1999) noted the type species of Tepperia as “NYD” (not yet designated) in their catalog, but Marshall (1936: 195) had previously designated T. sterculiae as the type species, stating that “ T. sterculiae is now fixed as the type of the genus”.
The genus Evaniocis Lea, 1913, which comprises two Australian species and closely resembles Tepperia, was erected based on the “coarsely faceted eyes and elytra not separately rounded at base” (Lea 1913); however, the relationship between the two genera warrants attention since states of these characteristics seem to be variable within Tepperia.
In the course of his study on New Zealand taxa of Cryptorhynchinae, Lyal (1993) indicated that the presence of a “spiculum relictum” can be regarded as a trait of generic importance. On the other hand, Lyal (1993) noted that the shape of the basal sclerite (= copulatory sclerites sensu Lyal 2010) is variable within the subfamily and is sometimes crucial for distinguishing genera. At that time, morphological characteristics of male terminalia had not been studied for Tepperia and its relatives. As described below, we observed structures of the male terminalia of three Tepperia species, T. sterculiae, T. palawanica and T. vagabunda, for the first time, and revealed that their male terminalia are similar in having a spiculum relictum of sternite VIII and a tubular copulatory sclerite in the endophallus. In order to assess the significance of structures of the male terminalia in delimiting the genus Tepperia, it is necessary to examine the character states in other congeners, as well as in members of related genera.
