description: Using a recent technique, proposed by Eardley and Giddings, we extend their results to the high-energy collision of two beams of massless particles, i.e. of two finite-front shock waves. Closed (marginally) trapped surfaces can be determined analytically in several cases even for collisions at non-vanishing impact parameter in D\ge 4 space-time dimensions. We are able to confirm and extend earlier conjectures by Yurtsever, and to deal with arbitrary axisymmetric profiles, including an amusing case of ``fractal'' beams. We finally discuss some implications of our results in high-energy experiments and in cosmology.

Slower variation of the generation sizes induced by heavy-tailed environment for geometric branching
Creators: name: Bhattacharya, Ayan

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: Motivated by seminal paper of Kozlov et al.(1975) we consider in this paper a branching process with a geometric offspring distribution parametrized by random success probability $A$ and immigration equals $1$ in each generation. In contrast to above mentioned article, we assume that environment is heavy-tailed, that is $\log A^{-1} (1-A)$ is regularly varying with a parameter $α>1$, that is that ${\bf P} \Big( \log A^{-1} (1-A) > x \Big) = x^{-α} L(x)$ for a slowly varying function $L$. We will prove that although the offspring distribution is light-tailed, the environment itself can produce extremely heavy tails of distribution of the population at $n$-th generation which gets even heavier with $n$ increasing. Precisely, in this work, we prove that asymptotic tail ${\bf P}(Z_l \ge m)$ of $l$-th population $Z_l$ is of order $ \Big(\log^{(l)} m \Big)^{-α} L \Big(\log^{(l)} m \Big)$ for large $m$, where $\log^{(l)} m = \log \ldots \log m$. The proof is mainly based on Tauberian theorem. Using this result we also analyze the asymptotic behaviour of the first passage time $T_n$ of the state $n \in \mathbb{Z}$ by the walker in a neighborhood random walk in random environment created by independent copies $(A_i : i \in \mathbb{Z})$ of $(0,1)$-valued random variable $A$. This version differs from the final version as it contains an alternative proof for the tail behavior for generation sizes which is not very sharp (lacks constant) but completely avoids arguments based on Tauberian theorem. This proof may be of an independent interest.

description: The treatment of degenerate states within Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) is a problem of longstanding interest. We propose a solution to this mapping from the interacting degenerate system to that of the noninteracting fermion model whereby the equivalent density and energy are obtained via the unifying physical framework of quantal density functional theory (Q-DFT). We describe the Q-DFT of \textit{both} ground and excited degenerate states, and for the cases of \textit{both} pure state and ensemble v-representable densities. This then further provides a rigorous physical interpretation of the density and bidensity energy functionals, and of their functional derivatives, of the corresponding KS-DFT. We conclude with examples of the mappings within Q-DFT.

description: When looking for heavy ($\mathcal{O}$(few TeV)) New Physics, the most efficient way to benefit from both high and low-energy measurements simultaneously is the use of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). In this talk I highlight the importance of semileptonic $τ$ decays in complementing, in this respect, the traditional low-energy precision observables and high-energy measurements. This is yet another reason for considering hadronic tau decays as golden channels at Belle-II beyond the unquestionable interest of the CP violation anomaly in $τ\to K_Sπν_τ$ decays, that I also discuss within the effective theory. A couple of new results for $τ^-\to K^-ν_τ$ decays are also included.

description: Carbonaceous nanomaterials (CNMs) are universally being used to make commodities, as they present unique opportunities for development and innovation in the fields of engineering, biotechnology, etc. As technology advances to incorporate CNMs in industry, the potential exposures associated with these particles also increase. CNMs have been found to be associated with substantial pulmonary toxicity, including inflammation, fibrosis, and/or granuloma formation in animal models. This study attempts to categorize the toxicity profiles of various carbon allotropes, in particular, carbon black, different multi-walled carbon nanotubes, graphene-based materials, and their derivatives. Statistical and machine learning-based approaches were used to identify groups of CNMs with similar pulmonary toxicity responses from a panel of proteins measured in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid samples and with similar pathological outcomes in the lungs. Thus, grouped particles, based on their pulmonary toxicity profiles, were used to select a small set of proteins that could potentially identify and discriminate between the toxicity profiles associated within each group. Specifically, MDC/CCL22 and MIP-3β/CCL19 were identified as common protein markers associated with both toxicologically distinct groups of CNMs. In addition, the persistent expression of other selected protein markers in BAL fluid from each group suggested their ability to predict toxicity in the lungs, i.e. fibrosis and microgranuloma formation. The advantages of such approaches can have positive implications for further research in toxicity profiling.

 Rhamphocoelus [sic] dunstalli Rothschild, 1895: 481 (Central America and probably Panama).
 Now Ramphocelus dimidiatus × R. icteronotus. See Hartert, 1919: 149, Griscom, 1932a, Hellmayr, 1936: 261–264, Olson and Violani, 1995: 304– 305, and Dickinson, 2003: 806.
 HOLOTYPE: AMNH 510004, unsexed [male], locality unknown, purchased from K. Dunstall. From the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: When this bird was described, Rothschild had the single specimen; he commented: ‘‘By the make of the skin it evidently came from Central America, and probably Panama.’’ Hartert (1919: 149) commented that later Rothschild had purchased a second similar specimen from Comte de Dalmas, who in 1896 had bought it from Sciama, a feather-dealer in Paris. This second specimen has no type standing.
 Griscom (1932a) came to the conclusion that R. dunstalli was a hybrid between R. dimidiatus and R. icteronotus, and Olson and Violani (1995: 304–305) agreed with this assesment. Hellmayr (1936, 263, footnote) disagreed and thought that it was merely a ‘‘freaky’’ mutation of R. passerinii.

description: A machine learning technique with two-dimension convolutional neural network is proposed for detecting exoplanet transits. To test this new method, five different types of deep learning models with or without folding are constructed and studied. The light curves of the Kepler Data Release 25 are employed as the input of these models. The accuracy, reliability, and completeness are determined and their performances are compared. These results indicate that a combination of two-dimension convolutional neural network with folding would be an excellent choice for the future transit analysis.

The processing of injected flavour in the flavour aversion learning preparation
Creators: name: Lloyd, Doug
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1979

description: This research examines the processing of injected flavour in the flavour aversion learning paradigm. It is found that an aversion can be conditioned to injected saccharin solution only if the presentation of reinforcement (poisoning by lithium chloride) is delayed, and not if animals are poisoned immediately after injection of flavour. It is concluded that intravascular perception of injected saccharin solution persists for a number of hours after the time of injection, and that the time of occurrence of poisoning within this period determines the strength of any resulting aversion to the flavour of saccharin. In particular, the length of delay before poisoning is concluded to determine how much flavour exposure will occur before illness, thus contributing to the acquisition of an aversion to that flavour; and how much flavour exposure will occur after illness, thus contributing to the total or partial extinction of that aversion. A number of investigations are proposed for the purpose of establishing whether or not the intravascular taste mechanism operates in preparations where the flavoured solution is consumed in the normal way. Incidental findings of this research are that confinement is capable of acting as an unconditioned stimulus in the food aversion learning paradigm, and that the development of sensitisation follows a slower time course than either the attenuation of neophobia or the conditioning of flavour aversions.

description: Hard sphere systems in two dimensions are examined for arbitrary density. Simulation results are compared to the theoretical predictions for both the low and the high density limit, where the system is either disordered or ordered, respectively. The pressure in the system increases with the density, except for an intermediate range of volume fractions $0.65 \le ν\le 0.75$, where a disorder-order phase transition occurs. The proposed {\em global equation of state} (which describes the pressure {\em for all densities}) is applied to the situation of an extremely dense hard sphere gas in a gravitational field and shows reasonable agreement with both experimental and numerical data.

Reflection as a Means to Develop Young Learners’ Metacognition – an exploratory study
Creators: name: Cravo, Paula
Publisher: name: Sensos-e
Year: 2018

description: The exploratory action research study conducted as part of my practicum as a student teacher during the master’s degree studies in teaching English at primary level aimed to explore two strands of the umbrella term, metacognitive awareness. These were self-awareness (Who am I as a language learner?) and cognitive awareness (Why and how do I learn a language?). Secondly, the study aimed to help understand the teacher’s role in fostering reflection and how reflection can support students’ learning. The study was conducted during a 2- month period and involved a group of 26 students at primary level. The main data collection tools consisted of a teaching journal used to note pertinent contributions from students, and student questionnaires. Classroom practice consisted of strategic questioning, reflection upon the activities carried out during the lesson through the use of reflection cards and reflective summaries promoted by the teacher. Results showed that over time, through reflection more students were able to recognize their mistakes, share their learning strategies with their peers, and students were able to provide more reasons for the activities carried out in the classroom. Moreover, the study demonstrated that the teacher’s role is fundamental in promoting students’ reflective attitudes towards learning. Full Article

description: Recent work has demonstrated that many social networks, and indeed many networks of other types also, have broad distributions of vertex degree. Here we show that this has a substantial impact on the shape of ego-centered networks, i.e., sets of network vertices that are within a given distance of a specified central vertex, the ego. This in turn affects concepts and methods based on ego-centered networks, such as snowball sampling and the "ripple effect". In particular, we argue that one's acquaintances, one's immediate neighbors in the acquaintance network, are far from being a random sample of the population, and that this biases the numbers of neighbors two and more steps away. We demonstrate this concept using data drawn from academic collaboration networks, for which, as we show, current simple theories for the typical size of ego-centered networks give numbers that differ greatly from those measured in reality. We present an improved theoretical model which gives significantly better results.

 Rhamphocoelus [sic] inexpectatus Rothschild, 1897a: 32 (Panama).
 Now backcross Ramphocelus icteronotus / dimidiatus × icteronotus. See Hartert, 1919: 149, Griscom, 1932a, Hellmayr, 1936: 266–268, Olson and Violani, 1995: 304–309, and Dickinson, 2003: 806.
 HOLOTYPE: AMNH 509649, unsexed [male], locality unknown, purchased from K. Dunstall. From the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: Rothschild had the single specimen when this form was described. Based on the method of preparation, the skin was thought to have come from Panama. Griscom (1932a) discussed this form and decided that it represented a hybrid between R. chrysopterus and R. icteronotus (but he considered R. chrysopterus a hybrid between R. flammigerus and R. icteronotus). Olson and Violani (1995: 304–309) also believed that R. inexpectatus represented a backcross, but between a hybrid R. icteronotus / dimidiatus and R. icteronotus. Hellmayr (1936: 263, footnote) considered inexpectatus to be an ‘‘individual mutation’’ of R. icteronotus.

Implementing intercultural pedagogy in the teaching of English at Primary schools

Publisher: name: Sensos-e
Year: 2018

description: Exposure to other cultures right from early childhood is very crucial. There is growth and richness in the cultural horizons of pupils who come across different cultures and interact with them. Bearing this in mind, this article aims at illustrating some didactic activities in which some intercultural (Chlopek, 2008) and plurilingual (Cenoz & Gorter, 2013) approaches were made during the internship of the Master of Arts in Teaching English at 1st Cycle of Basic Education. Approaches of this kind offered pupils the opportunity to critically analyse, compare cultures and languages as well as create some project related to this field. Results from data analysis and interpretation based on observations, questionnaires, and documentary analysis (Walker, 1985) in this case study show that intercultural approach is a relevant approach in the teaching of English at primary schools. In fact, pupils were engaged in tasks which posed them challenges, by training them to become citizens of a pluricultural and plurilingual world (Cruz, & Orange, 2016). Moreover, evidences show that having had the opportunity to be exposed to different cultures, pupils were able to create intercultural awareness in them, which consequently helped them to develop respect for the other and their respective cultures (Concelho Nacional de Educação, 2013).

description: We study the drag force on discrete objects with circular cross section moving slowly through a spherical granular medium. Variations in the geometry of the dragged object change the drag force only by a small fraction relative to shape effects in fluid drag. The drag force depends quadratically on the object's diameter as expected. We do observe, however, a deviation above the expected linear depth dependence, and the magnitude of the deviation is apparently controlled by geometrical factors.

D e s c r i p t i o n: Length 2-2.2 mm. Body shiny, brown, antennae yellow with the three basal antennomeres pale yellow, legs yellow. Second antennomere shorter than the first, third shorter than the second, fourth transverse, antennomeres five to ten transverse. Eyes longer than the postocular region in dorsal view. Reticulation of the fore-body very superficial, on pronotum and elytra very transverse, that of the abdomen irregular, polygonal and evanescent. Puncturation of the head irregularly distributed and absent on the longitudinal median band, that of the pronotum evident and distributed as in figure 67.

Borneo, G. borneensis CAMERON, fungus" (MSNL). In the shape of the male sixth free abdominal tergite the new species is near to G. microcicatricosa PACE, 2001 from Mt Kinabalu. The new species differs from G. microcicatricosa in the yellowish-red antennae (brown in G. microcicatricosa) and in the bi-sinuate aedeagus (curved aedeagus in G. microcicatricosa).

description: With the rapid development of natural language processing technologies, more and more text steganographic methods based on automatic text generation technology have appeared in recent years. These models use the powerful self-learning and feature extraction ability of the neural networks to learn the feature expression of massive normal texts. Then they can automatically generate dense steganographic texts which conform to such statistical distribution based on the learned statistical patterns. In this paper, we observe that the conditional probability distribution of each word in the automatically generated steganographic texts will be distorted after embedded with hidden information. We use Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) to extract these feature distribution differences and then classify those features into cover text and stego text categories. Experimental results show that the proposed model can achieve high detection accuracy. Besides, the proposed model can even make use of the subtle differences of the feature distribution of texts to estimate the amount of hidden information embedded in the generated steganographic text.

We consider two important applications of these results: to cosmology, as regards the possibility of solving the horizon problem with no need to resort to any inflationary scenario, and to the Strong Cosmic Censorship Hypothesis to which we propose a class of physically consistent counter-examples.

description: The Jahn-Teller (JT) distortion that can remove electronic degeneracies in partially occupied states and results in systematic atomic displacements is a common underlying feature to many of the intriguing phenomena observed in 3d perovskites, encompassing magnetism, superconductivity, orbital ordering and colossal magnetoresistance. Although the seminal Jahn and Teller theorem has been postulated almost a century ago, the origins of this effect in perovskite materials are still debated, including propositions such as super exchange, spin-phonon coupling, sterically induced lattice distortions, and strong dynamical correlation effects. Here we analyze the driving forces behind the Jahn-Teller motions and associated electronic fingerprints in a full range of ABX3 compounds. We identify (i) compounds that are prone to an electronically-driven instabilities (i.e. a pure JT effect) such as KCrF3, KCuF3 or LaVO3 and proceed to relax the structures, finding quantitatively the JTD in excellent agreement with experiment; (ii) compounds such as LaMnO3 or LaTiO3 that do not show electronically driven JTD despite orbital degeneracies, because their strongly hybridized B, d-X, p states supply but too weak JT forces to overcome the needed atomic distortions; (iii) although LaVO3 exhibits similar B, d-X, p hybridizations as LaTiO3, the former compound exhibits a robust electronic instability while LaTiO3 has zero stabilization energy, the reason being that LaVO3 has two electrons t2g2 relative to LaTiO3 with just one t2g1. (iv) We explain the trends in "orbital ordering" whereby electrons occupy orbitals that point to orthogonal directions between all nearest-neighbor 3d atoms. We thereby provide a unified vision to explain octahedra deformations in perovskites that, at odds with common wisdom, does not require the celebrated Mott-Hubbard mechanism.

D e s c r i p t i o n: Length 1.12-1.2 mm. Body shiny, yellowish-brown, elytra brown, antennae dirty yellow, legs yellow. Second antennomere shorter than the first, third shorter than the second, antennomeres four to ten transverse. Eyes longer than the postocular region in dorsal view. Head and pronotum devoid of reticulation. Reticulation of the elytra evident and slightly transverse, that of the abdomen also evident and irregular polygonal. Puncturation of the head very superficial, except for two strong median posterior punctures located on a transverse line. Puncturation of the pronotum very superficial and evident, distributed as in figure 75. Granulation of the elytra fine, very superficial and close, that of the abdomen salient only near the posterior margin of each tergite. Male fifth free tergite with a posterior median flattened U-shaped fold. Aedeagus: Fig. 73; spermatheca: Fig. 74; pronotum: Fig. 75; sixth free male abdominal tergite: Fig. 76.
 C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: The shapes of the aedeagus and of the male sixth free abdominal tergite of the new species show some similarities to those of G. benevola PACE, 2001 also from Borneo. The new species is clearly distinguished by having the apex of the aedeagus, in lateral view, wide (narrow in G. benevola). The median lobe of the male sixth free abdominal tergite is ampler in the new species than in G. benevola.
 E t y m o l o g y: The profile of the aedeagus, in lateral view, is shaped like the head of dragon with a fierce mouth. The name of the new species means "fierce mouth" from the Latin os = mouth and ferox = fierce.

description: Very short quantum wires (quantum contacts) exhibit a conductance structure at a value of conductance close to $0.7 \times 2e^2/h$. It is believed that the structure arises due to the electron-electron interaction, and it is also related to electron spin. However details of the mechanism of the structure are not quite clear. Previously we approached the problem within the restricted Hartree-Fock approximation. This calculation demonstrated a structure similar to that observed experimentally. In the present work we perform restricted and unrestricted Hartree-Fock calculations to analyze the validity of the approximations. We also consider dependence of the effect on the electron density in leads. The unrestricted Hartree-Fock method allows us to analyze trapping of the single electron within the contact. Such trapping would result in the Kondo model for the ``0.7 structure''. The present calculation confirms the spin-dependent bound state picture and does not confirm the Kondo model scenario.

description: A “Educação pela Arte (EpA) no ensino precoce do Inglês” surge como uma nova abordagem didática que cria pontes entre Arte e Língua. A arte fornece o contexto para a aquisição da L2 e ambos, arte e L2, culminam no desenvolvimento da relação do ser humano com o mundo, na vertente cultural, artística e linguística. Esta abordagem interdisciplinar resulta do reconhecimento de um conjunto de premissas teóricas: os saberes não devem ser compartimentados e, como tal, não devem ser hierarquizados; o acesso à arte não deve ser um luxo, mas uma necessidade; Língua e Arte são formas de expressão subjetiva e criativa, promotoras do desenvolvimento global da criança. Numa sociedade cada vez mais global e mutável, a educação precisa de uma panaceia que cure o desrespeito por estas premissas. Para atingir essa finalidade, a investigação centrou-se em dois grupos de observação, professores e alunos, para perceber até que ponto o fenómeno em estudo era apenas uma potencialidade ou uma realidade. Através do trabalho de campo (Iturra, 1986) realizado foi possível construir uma nova abordagem didática no ensino precoce de uma segunda língua. A EpA passou de uma teoria bidimensional, o papel, para uma realidade tridimensional, a da sala de aula. Artigo Completo

description: Background: Electronic data collection is increasingly available as a means to collect pain-related clinical trial data; however, effectiveness and costs relative to traditional data collection are uncertain. Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate data quality, protocol adherence, satisfaction, and resource requirements of electronic data collection (i.e., Internet-based electronic submission) compared to traditional data collection methods (i.e., paper-based diaries and telephone interviews) in a perioperative factorial randomized controlled trial. Methods: This study was an open-label two-arm parallel randomized controlled trial. Women (18–75 years) undergoing breast cancer surgery were allocated to either electronic or traditional data collection and completed pain-related questionnaires at baseline, postoperative period, and 3-month follow-up (NCT02240199). Results: We acquired outcome data at all time points from 78 randomized patients, 38 in the electronic group and 40 in the traditional group. The number of data queries (e.g., erroneously entered data) per patient was higher in the electronic data group (4.92 [SD = 4.67] vs. 1.88 [SD = 1.51]; P P P Conclusion: Electronic data collection is feasible for perioperative pain clinical trials. Additional trials, including different surgical populations, are needed to confirm our findings and optimize use of electronic data capture methods.

description: Simulation results of dense granular gases with particles of different size are compared with theoretical predictions concerning the pair-correlation functions, the collison rate, the energy dissipation, and the mixture pressure. The effective particle-particle correlation function, which enters the equation of state in the same way as the correlation function of monodisperse granular gases, depends only on the total volume fraction and on the dimensionless width A of the size-distribution function. The ''global equation of state'' is proposed, which unifies both the dilute and the dense regime. The knowledge about a global equation of state is applied to steady-state situations of granular gases in the gravitational field, where averages over many snapshots are possible. The numerical results on the density profile agree perfectly with the predictions based on the global equation of state, for monodisperse situations. In the bi- or polydisperse cases, segregation occurs with the heavy particles at the bottom.

description: Introduction/Aim: Alterations in extracellular glutamate levels have been previously found to contribute to cancer-induced bone pain (CIBP). Increased activity of system xc-, a cystine-glutamate membrane antiporter, has been previously implicated in our lab in these nociceptive behaviours. System xc- subunit xCT, is further positively regulated by signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3). In the current investigation, we hypothesized that DR-1–55-mediated inhibition of pSTAT3 will lead to decreased nociceptive behaviours in a validated xCT overexpression model of CIBP. Methods: Using a murine xenograft CIBP model, a high glutamate-releasing xCT/pSTAT3 overexpressing human breast cancer cell line (T47D clone) was injected into the distal epiphysis of the femur of female nude mice. Nociceptive behaviours were monitored through automated von Frey, dynamic weight bearing, and open field testing for the study duration. Three weeks after cell inoculation, a 14-day schedule of intraperitoneal injections of DR-1–55 or vehicle were administered. Results: In vitro, there were elevated levels of glutamate, IL-6, and IL- 1β exhibited in the T47D clone. These cells also showed significant nociceptive behaviours earlier than the T47D wild type (WT). Treatment with DR-1–55 significantly delayed the onset and severity of spontaneous and induced nociceptive behaviours, as seen with behavioural testing. Discussion/Conclusions: This study shows that targeting pSTAT3 may be a viable treatment when managing CIBP, and can be a molecule of interest in future studies.

description: Anomaly detection from a driver's perspective when driving is important to autonomous vehicles. As a part of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), it can remind the driver about dangers timely. Compared with traditional studied scenes such as the university campus and market surveillance videos, it is difficult to detect abnormal event from a driver's perspective due to camera waggle, abidingly moving background, drastic change of vehicle velocity, etc. To tackle these specific problems, this paper proposes a spatial localization constrained sparse coding approach for anomaly detection in traffic scenes, which firstly measures the abnormality of motion orientation and magnitude respectively and then fuses these two aspects to obtain a robust detection result. The main contributions are threefold: 1) This work describes the motion orientation and magnitude of the object respectively in a new way, which is demonstrated to be better than the traditional motion descriptors. 2) The spatial localization of object is taken into account of the sparse reconstruction framework, which utilizes the scene's structural information and outperforms the conventional sparse coding methods. 3) Results of motion orientation and magnitude are adaptively weighted and fused by a Bayesian model, which makes the proposed method more robust and handle more kinds of abnormal events. The efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed method are validated by testing on nine difficult video sequences captured by ourselves. Observed from the experimental results, the proposed method is more effective and efficient than the popular competitors, and yields a higher performance.
