Community colleges

description: Community colleges are under pressure to increase completion rates and efficiency despite limited evidence of the economic consequences of different reform strategies. We introduce an economic model of student course pathways linked to college expenditures and revenues. Using detailed data from a single college, we calculate baseline efficiency and differences in efficiency for students who follow different pathways. We simulate changes in output, expenditures, revenues, net revenues, and efficiency assuming that the college meets particular performance targets. Findings indicate substantial differences in efficiency across pathways and significant differences in efficiency across strategies to help students complete college. They also suggest that increasing the completion rate is difficult and typically requires additional resources beyond the costs of implementing particular strategies. The model has wide practical application for community colleges.
La morte e la storia

description: Questo lavoro mette a confronto due profili di artista per molti versi analoghi, che hanno incrociato casualmente i loro destini e per i quali il ruolo di una morte precoce ha acquisito significati analoghi. Per entrambi, il corpo è stato un tema centrale della produzione artistica, e nel caso di entrambi è stato il corpo a tradire e a spegnersi in fretta, in apparenza interrompendo una parabola artistica incompleta, in realtà ricalibrandola alla luce, appunto, della fine della vita. Attraverso il confronto tra Derek Jarman e Pier Paolo Pasolini, si affronta la questione dell’arte come senso dell’esistenza e riepilogo del proprio ruolo nel mondo.

Il fiume carsico della dimenticanza: amnesie individuali, silenzi collettivi e cure im/possibili nelle narrazioni cinematografiche della demenza
Creators: name: Coppola, Maria Micaela
Publisher: name: Altre Modernità
Year: 2020

description: Questo saggio intende tracciare il percorso della cultura della demenza osservando la costruzione socio-culturale della sindrome nelle narrazioni cinematografiche mainstream contemporanee in lingua inglese. La dimenticanza che caratterizza la demenza, come malattia e come fenomeno culturale, è (anche) un processo socio-culturale, eterogeneo e fatto di amnesie individuali e di paure e silenzi collettivi. Analizzando i film anglofoni sulla demenza, come parte di una più generale cultura occidentale della demenza, si intendono far riemergere, da un lato, diverse rappresentazioni culturali di soggetti amnesici a causa di forme di questa patologia, e, dall’altro, gli elementi ricorrenti (silenzi e paure collettive) in tali rappresentazioni. Infine, seguendo il percorso del ‘fiume carsico della demenza’, con le sue emersioni e immersioni, quella cura che a livello biomedico è ancora impossibile, a livello culturale emerge come possibile, nella presa di parola e nell’empowerment collettivi.

description: The first spectroscopy of excited states in 52Ni (Tz=2) and 51Co (Tz=-3/2) has been obtained using the highly selective two-neutron knockout reaction. Mirror energy differences between isobaric analogue states in these nuclei and their mirror partners are interpreted in terms of isospin nonconserving effects. A comparison between large scale shell-model calculations and data provides the most compelling evidence to date that both electromagnetic and an additional isospin nonconserving interactions for J=2 couplings, of unknown origin, are required to obtain good agreement.

description: Combining local exceptions and first class continuations leads to programs with complex control flow, as well as the possibility of expressing powerful constructs such as resumable exceptions. We describe and compare games models for a programming language which includes these features, as well as higher-order references. They are obtained by contrasting methodologies: by annotating sequences of moves with "control pointers" indicating where exceptions are thrown and caught, and by composing the exceptions and continuations monads. The former approach allows an explicit representation of control flow in games for exceptions, and hence a straightforward proof of definability (full abstraction) by factorization, as well as offering the possibility of a semantic approach to control flow analysis of exception-handling. However, establishing soundness of such a concrete and complex model is a non-trivial problem. It may be resolved by establishing a correspondence with the monad semantics, based on erasing explicit exception moves and replacing them with control pointers.

description: We describe the practical implementation of the sideband search, a search for periodic gravitational waves from neutron stars in binary systems. The orbital motion of the source in its binary system causes frequency-modulation in the combination of matched filters known as the $\mathcal{F}$-statistic. The sideband search is based on the incoherent summation of these frequency-modulated $\mathcal{F}$-statistic sidebands. It provides a new detection statistic for sources in binary systems, called the $\mathcal{C}$-statistic. The search is well suited to low-mass X-ray binaries, the brightest of which, called Sco X-1, is an ideal target candidate. For sources like Sco X-1, with well constrained orbital parameters, a slight variation on the search is possible. The extra orbital information can be used to approximately demodulate the data from the binary orbital motion in the coherent stage, before incoherently summing the now reduced number of sidebands. We investigate this approach and show that it improves the sensitivity of the standard Sco X-1 directed sideband search. Prior information on the neutron star inclination and gravitational wave polarization can also be used to improve upper limit sensitivity. We estimate the sensitivity of a Sco X-1 directed sideband search on 10 days of LIGO data and show that it can beat previous upper limits in current LIGO data, with a possibility of constraining theoretical upper limits using future advanced instruments.

description: We present an easily reproducible, open-source, sound card based experimental set-up to support transfer function measurement. Our system is able to visualize signals of mechanical and electrical resonances and their spectra in real time. We give a brief description of the system, and show some examples of electrical and mechanical resonance experiments that are supported by the system. The theoretical background, experimental set-up, component selection and digital signal processing are all discussed, and more detailed information (building instructions, software download) is provided on a dedicated web page (http://www.noise.inf.u-szeged.hu/edudev/RealTimeAnalysisOfResonances/) The experimental set-up can support undergraduate and graduate education of students of physics, physics education and engineering by means of experimental demonstrations and laboratory exercises. The very low cost, high efficiency and transparent system provides a scalable experimental environment that can be easily built in several instances.

We will show that if the one-sided topological Markov shifts (X_A,σ_A) and (X_B,σ_B) are continuously orbit equivalent, then the two-sided topological Markov shifts (\bar X_A,\barσ_A) and (\bar X_B,\barσ_B) are flow equivalent, and hence det(id-A)=det(id-B). As a result, the one-sided topological Markov shifts (X_A,σ_A) and (X_B,σ_B) are continuously orbit equivalent if and only if the Cuntz-Krieger algebras O_A and O_B are isomorphic and det(id-A)=det(id-B).

La suggestione e il suo ruolo nella clinica tra passato, presente e futuro

description: Da tempo si è iniziato a dubitare che il rapporto con la realtà sia oggettivo e unicamente centrato su aspetti logico-razionali. Le neuroscienze hanno offerto conferme al fatto che la percezione della realtà non corrisponda alla realtà. La mente è uno strumento di falsificazione molto efficace, perché costruisce “scenari virtuali” così persuasivi da essere scambiati dagli esseri umani per “realtà”. È noto fin dall’antichità che le parole hanno potere sulla realtà e le discipline filosofiche si sono occupate spesso del rapporto tra linguaggio e realtà. La suggestione può essere intesa come una particolare forma di comunicazione, tradizionalmente impiegata nella cura, che comprende un insieme di tecniche per manipolare aspettative e percezioni. In molte attività umane il tema della suggestione ha raggiunto un alto livello di elaborazione ed è stato diffusamente applicato; tra questi ambiti ricordiamo quello pubblicitario, della scelta economica e del voto politico. Da oltre un secolo la medicina, alla ricerca di fondamenti scientifici, ha però trascurato il ruolo della suggestione nei processi di cura. Gli autori illustrano alcuni percorsi storici della suggestione nella cura e una panoramica della sua presenza, talvolta non riconosciuta e non studiata, in vari ambiti della clinica attuale.

description: The Japanese currency has recently weakened past 100 yen to the dollar. The reason for the recent depreciation of the yen is the expectation of higher inflation in Japan, owing to the rapid projected growth in Japanese base money, the sum of currency and commercial banking reserves at the Bank of Japan. We show through our empirical analysis that recent expansionary Japanese monetary policies have generally helped raise U.S. GDP, despite the appreciation of the dollar.

description: Although chromospheric activity cycles have been studied in a larger number of late-type stars for quite some time, very little is known about coronal activity-cycles in other stars and their similarities or dissimilarities with the solar activity cycle. While it is usually assumed that cyclic activity is present only in stars of low to moderate activity, we investigate whether the ultra-fast rotator AB Dor, a K dwarf exhibiting signs of substantial magnetic activity in essentially all wavelength bands, exhibits a X-ray activity cycle in analogy to its photospheric activity cycle of about 17 years and possible correlations between these bands. We analysed the combined optical photometric data of AB Dor A, which span ~35 years. Additionally, we used ROSAT and XMM-Newton X-ray observations of AB Dor A to study the long-term evolution of magnetic activity in this active K dwarf over nearly three decades and searched for X-ray activity cycles and related photometric brightness changes. AB Dor A exhibits photometric brightness variations ranging between 6.75 < Vmag < 7.15 while the X-ray luminosities range between 29.8 < log LX [erg/s] < 30.2 in the 0.3-2.5 keV. As a very active star, AB Dor A shows frequent X-ray flaring, but, in the long XMM-Newton observations a kind of basal state is attained very often. This basal state probably varies with the photospheric activity-cycle of AB Dor A which has a period of ~17 years, but, the X-ray variability amounts at most to a factor of ~2, which is, much lower than the typical cycle amplitudes found on the Sun.

Quantifying Sentiment for the Japanese Economy as Predictors of Stock Prices

description: This paper quantifies market sentiment as four indexes and examines whether they can help predict stock prices in Japanese markets. Sentiment analysis is gaining increasing interest in both academia and business. Previously, Ishijima et al. (2014) created a sentiment index that quantifies the positive or negative emotions that might appear in the Nikkei, which is the most popular business newspaper in Japan. They concluded that the sentiment index significantly predicts stock prices three days in advance. We re-examine their recent 5-year-worth results by extending in two dimensions; that is, we extend the coverage of the Nikkei to 29 years and create variations of their original sentiment index. On the basis of 29-year-worth daily sentiment indexes, we thoroughly examine the predictability of Japanese stock prices. The findings of our year-by-year analysis are two-fold: (1) sentiment indexes created from all of Nikkei’s articles persistently predict the Nikkei 225 stock prices, in both in-sample and out-of-sample bases, and (2) these periods can be interpreted using business cycles defined by Japan’s Cabinet Office.

description: We report $^{153}$Eu and $^{69,71}$Ga NMR under a zero magnetic field on the antiferromagnetic state of EuGa$_{4}$ with $T_{\rm{N}}\approx 16$ K. We have successfully observed a $^{153}$Eu zero-field NMR signal with well-resolved nuclear quadrupole splitting in the antiferromagnetic state of EuGa$_{4}$. $^{69,71}$Ga zero-field NMR spectra were also observed below $T_{\rm{N}}$. The internal field and nuclear quadrupole frequency are estimated from a simulation of the spectra by the exact diagonalization of the nuclear spin Hamiltonian matrix. The asymmetrically split zero-field NMR spectra were explained by considering a configuration of the magnetic moments of Eu$^{2+}$ lying in the basal $ab$-plane. The temperature dependence of the internal field, which is proportional to the sublattice magnetization, can be explained by the Brillouin function with $J=S=7/2$

description: The economics of an internet crime has newly developed into a field of controlling black money. This economic approach not only provides estimated technique of analyzing internet crimes but also gives details to analyzers of system dependability and divergence. This paper will highlight on the subject of online crime, which has formed its industry since. It all started from amateur hackers who cracked websites and wrote malicious software in pursuit of fun or achieving limited objectives to professional hacking. In the past days, electronic fraud was main objective but now it has been changed into electronic hacking. This study focuses the issue through an economic analysis of available web forum to deals in malware and private information. The findings of this survey research provide considerable in-depth sight into the functions of malware economy spinning around computer impositions and compromise. In this regard, the survey research paper may benefit particularly computer security officials, the law enforcement agencies, and in general prospective anyone involved in better understanding cybercrime from the offender standpoint.

description: We investigate magnetic properties and strong coupling corrections in the BCS (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer)-BEC (Bose-Einstein condensation) crossover regime of an ultracold Fermi gas. Within the framework of an extended $T$-matrix theory, we calculate the spin susceptibility $χ$ above the superfluid phase transition temperature $T_{\rm c}$. In the crossover region, the formation of preformed Cooper pairs is shown to cause a non-monotonic temperature dependence of $χ$, which is similar to the so-called spin-gap phenomenon observed in the under-doped regime of high-$T_{c}$ cuprates. From this behavior of $χ$, we determine the spin-gap temperature as the temperature at which $χ$ takes a maximum value, in the BCS-BEC crossover region. Since the spin susceptibility is sensitive to the formation of singlet Cooper pairs, our results would be useful in considering the temperature region where pairing fluctuations are important in the BCS-BEC crossover regime of an ultracold Fermi gas.

description: We analyze information diffusion using empirical data that tracks online communication around two instances of mass political mobilization, including the year that lapsed in-between the protests. We compare the global properties of the topological and dynamic networks through which communication took place as well as local changes in network composition. We show that changes in network structure underlie aggregated differences on how information diffused: an increase in network hierarchy is accompanied by a reduction in the average size of cascades. The increasing hierarchy affects not only the underlying communication topology but also the more dynamic structure of information exchange; the increase is especially noticeable amongst certain categories of nodes (or users). This suggests that the relationship between the structure of networks and their function in diffusing information is not as straightforward as some theoretical models of diffusion in networks imply.

The contact line behaviour of solid-liquid-gas diffuse-interface models

description: A solid-liquid-gas moving contact line is considered through a diffuse-interface model with the classical boundary condition of no-slip at the solid surface. Examination of the asymptotic behaviour as the contact line is approached shows that the relaxation of the classical model of a sharp liquid-gas interface, whilst retaining the no-slip condition, resolves the stress and pressure singularities associated with the moving contact line problem while the fluid velocity is well defined (not multi-valued). The moving contact line behaviour is analysed for a general problem relevant for any density dependent dynamic viscosity and volume viscosity, and for general microscopic contact angle and double well free-energy forms. Away from the contact line, analysis of the diffuse-interface model shows that the Navier--Stokes equations and classical interfacial boundary conditions are obtained at leading order in the sharp-interface limit, justifying the creeping flow problem imposed in an intermediate region in the seminal work of Seppecher [Int. J. Eng. Sci. 34, 977--992 (1996)]. Corrections to Seppecher's work are given, as an incorrect solution form was originally used.

description: The Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) has been used for high angular resolution imaging of 71 southern class I methanol maser sources quasi-simultaneously at 36 and 44 GHz. The data reveal a high level of morphological and kinematical complexity, and allow us to demonstrate associations, at arcsecond precision, of the class I maser emission with outflows, expanding HII regions, dark clouds, shocks traced by the 4.5-micron emission and 8.0-micron filaments. More than 700 maser component features were found at each of the two methanol transitions, but with only 23 per cent recognisable at both transitions; the morphology of class I emission is much better revealed by our survey of both transitions, compared with either one alone. We found that the number of masers falls exponentially with the projected linear distance from the associated class II 6.7-GHz methanol maser. This distribution has a scale of 263+/-15 mpc, irrespective of the transition. The class I masers associated with OH masers were found to have a tendency to be more spread out, both spatially and in the velocity domain. This is consistent with the expectation that such sources are more evolved. Apart from a small number of high-velocity components (which are largely blue-shifted and predominantly seen at 36 GHz), the velocity distribution was found to be Gaussian, peaking near the systemic velocity of the region, which had been estimated as the middle of the velocity interval of the associated class II methanol maser at 6.7 GHz. The mean indicated a small, but significant blue shift asymmetry of -0.57 km/s (uncertainties are 0.06 and 0.07 km/s for the 36- and 44-GHz masers, respectively) with respect to the 6.7-GHz masers. The standard deviation of the velocity distribution was found to be 3.65+/-0.05 and 3.32+/-0.07 km/s for the 36- and 44-GHz masers, respectively.

description: We present new proofs of termination of evaluation in reduction semantics (i.e., a small-step operational semantics with explicit representation of evaluation contexts) for System F with control operators. We introduce a modified version of Girard's proof method based on reducibility candidates, where the reducibility predicates are defined on values and on evaluation contexts as prescribed by the reduction semantics format. We address both abortive control operators (callcc) and delimited-control operators (shift and reset) for which we introduce novel polymorphic type systems, and we consider both the call-by-value and call-by-name evaluation strategies.

description: We study open heavy flavor meson production in proton-nucleus (pA) collisions at RHIC and LHC energies within the Color Glass Condensate framework. We use the unintegrated gluon distribution at small Bjorken's x in the proton obtained by solving the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation with running coupling correction and constrained by global fitting of HERA data. We change the initial saturation scale of the gluon distribution for the heavy nucleus. The gluon distribution with McLerran-Venugopalan model initial condition is also used for comparison. We present transverse momentum spectra of single D and B productions in pA collisions, and the so-called nuclear modification factor. The azimuthal angle correlation of open heavy flavor meson pair is also computed to study the modification due to the gluon saturation in the heavy nucleus at the LHC.
