description: We report the first detection of multiphase gas within a quiescent galaxy beyond $z\approx0$. The observations use the brighter image of doubly lensed QSO HE 0047$-$1756 to probe the ISM of the massive ($M_{\rm star}\approx 10^{11} \mathrm{M_\odot}$) elliptical lens galaxy at $z_\mathrm{gal}=0.408$. Using Hubble Space Telescope's Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS), we obtain a medium-resolution FUV spectrum of the lensed QSO and identify numerous absorption features from $\mathrm{H_2}$ in the lens ISM at projected distance $d=4.6$ kpc. The $\mathrm{H_2}$ column density is $\log N(\mathrm{H_2})/\mathrm{cm^{-2}}=17.8^{+0.1}_{-0.3}$ with a molecular gas fraction of $f_\mathrm{H_2}=2-5\%$, roughly consistent with some local quiescent galaxies. The new COS spectrum also reveals kinematically complex absorption features from highly ionized species O VI and N V with column densities log $N(\mathrm{O VI})/\mathrm{cm^{-2}} =15.2\pm0.1$ and log $N(\mathrm{N V})/\mathrm{cm^{-2}} =14.6\pm0.1$, among the highest known in external galaxies. Assuming the high-ionization absorption features originate in a transient warm ($T\sim10^5\,$K) phase undergoing radiative cooling from a hot halo surrounding the galaxy, we infer a mass accretion rate of $\sim 0.5-1.5\,\mathrm{M_\odot\,yr^{-1}}$. The lack of star formation in the lens suggests the bulk of this flow is returned to the hot halo, implying a heating rate of $\sim10^{48}\,\mathrm{erg\,yr^{-1}}$. Continuous heating from evolved stellar populations (primarily SNe Ia but also winds from AGB stars) may suffice to prevent a large accumulation of cold gas in the ISM, even in the absence of strong feedback from an active nucleus.

description: When two vortices cross, each of them breaks into two parts and exchanges part of itself for part of the other. This process, called vortex reconnection, occurs in classical as well as superfluids, and in magnetized plasmas and superconductors. We present the first experimental observations of reconnection between quantized vortices in superfluid helium. We do so by imaging micron-sized solid hydrogen particles trapped on quantized vortex cores (Bewley GP, Lathrop DP, Sreenivasan KR, 2006, Nature, 441:588), and by inferring the occurrence of reconnection from the motions of groups of recoiling particles. We show the distance separating particles on the just-reconnected vortex lines grows as a power law in time. The average value of the scaling exponent is approximately 1/2, consistent with the scale-invariant evolution of the vortices.

description: Research indicates that doctoral students' relationship with their advisor is the most important factor in the degree progress, and often the main reason for student attrition. In this study interviews with graduate students in two science departments, biology and chemistry, at a large research university were used to explore their concept of the "ideal" science research advisor and the extent to which their present advisor fits this ideal. Students' descriptions of the ideal research advisor included many of the traits that characterize the advisor as a mentor. However, student responses also indicated that most of their advisors deviated considerably from students' descriptions of the "ideal." This perception was particularly common among the female students in chemistry.

description: We consider a nonlocal theory of a scalar massive field in a flat spacetime background in the presence of an external potential and construct WKB solutions for this theory. We use a model in which the kinetic part of the scalar field action is modified by changing $\Box$ to $\Box f(\Box)$ operator. We discuss conditions when the corresponding form factor $f$ is chosen so that the theory does not contain new unphysical degrees of freedom. We applied the obtained WKB solutions for study energy levels of the field trapped by a one-dimensional potential and the probability of the barrier penetration. This allows us to illustrate how the effects of the nonlocality change the known results obtained for the local field theory.

description: In an attempt to solicit career advice for young women by interviewing experienced career women, this study discovered the location of the proverbial glass ceiling and revealed distinct types of power operating in organizations. The careers of the women participating in this study were circumscribed by conflicts. If they developed technical expertise as a mode of insulation, they escaped high conflict but remained on a technical career path without access to higher executive opportunities. If they pursued executive opportunities through general management positions, they were surrounded by high conflict and became career casualties in powerful threat systems. A review of the literature revealed that each of these systems is similar to a type in Boulding's (1989) theory of power.

description: In this work, we present a lattice study of an axion - dark photon system in the early Universe and show that the stochastic gravitational wave (GW) background produced by this system may be probed by future GW experiments across a vast range of frequencies. The numerical simulation on the lattice allows us to take into account non-linear backreaction effects and enables us to accurately predict the final relic abundance of the axion or axion-like particle (ALP) as well as its inhomogeneities, and gives a more precise prediction of the GW spectrum. Importantly, we find that the GW spectrum has more power at high momenta due to $2\rightarrow1$ processes. Furthermore, we find the degree of polarization of the peak of the GW spectrum depends on the ALP-dark photon coupling and that the polarization can be washed out or even flipped for large values thereof. In line with recent results in the literature, we find the ALP relic abundance may be suppressed by two orders of magnitude and discuss possible extensions of the model that expand the viable parameter space. Finally, we discuss the possibility to probe ultralight ALP dark matter via spectral distortions of the CMB.

description: The transversity distribution for $u$ and $d$ quarks is usually extracted from data on spin asymmetries in Semi Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering (SIDIS): however, due to its chiral odd nature, it has to be coupled to another chiral odd function, typically the Collins or the di-hadron fragmentation function. A recent suggestion of considering SIDIS data involving ratios of spin asymmetries and avoiding a knowledge of the Collins function, is briefly discussed. New measurements, involving ratios of cross sections, are suggested. They would allow a direct extraction of the transversity ratio, $h_1^{d_V}/h_1^{u_V}$. Numerical estimates are given.

description: Coupling a system to a nonthermal environment can profoundly affect the phase diagram of the closed system, giving rise to a special class of dissipation-induced phase transitions. Such transitions take the system out of its ground state and stabilize a higher-energy stationary state, rendering it the sole attractor of the dissipative dynamics. In this work, we present a unifying methodology, which we use to characterize this ubiquitous phenomenology and its implications for the open system dynamics. Specifically, we analyze the closed system's phase diagram, including symmetry-broken phases, and explore their corresponding excitations' spectra. Opening the system, the environment can overwhelm the system's symmetry-breaking tendencies, and changes its order parameter. As a result, isolated distinct phases of similar order become connected, and new phase-costability regions appear. Interestingly, the excitations differ in the newly-connected regions through a change in their symplectic norm, which is robust to the introduction of dissipation. As a result, by tuning the system from one phase to the other across the dissipation-stabilized region, the open system fluctuations exhibit an exceptional point-like scenario, where the fluctuations become overdamped, only to reappear with an opposite sign in the dynamical response function of the system. The overdamped region is also associated with squeezing of the fluctuations. We demonstrate the pervasive nature of such dissipation-induced phenomena in two prominent examples, namely in parametric resonators and in light-matter systems. Our work draws a crucial distinction between quantum phase transitions and their zero-temperature open system counterparts.

Exploring sandplay with children who stutter
Creators: name: Addison, Sharon J.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This study examined the use of sandplay, with three school-aged boys who stuttered. Each child was offered one-hour of sandplay therapy per week, over a four-month period. The number of sessions per child ranged from twelve to sixteen. Participant-observation was used for data collection. All sessions were videotaped and photographs were taken of each child's sand pictures. A detailed description of each session is presented. This is followed by a detailed analysis of the themes and symbols that occurred in each sandplay picture, based on Carl G. Jung's theory of Analytical Psychology and Dora Kalff s theory of Sandplay. Researcher served as the sandplay therapist in all sessions. The researcher/counsellor's clinical impressions and reflections are also presented. Quantitative pre- and post-tests measured each child's level of anxiety, self-esteem and attitudes towards his speech. The stuttering level of each child was also tested before the sandplay therapy began and once it was completed. The quantitative tests produced a wide range of results which seemed to be most useful for gathering further information relation to each child. The stuttering levels of each child increased slightly over time which was attributed to the possibility of the stressful time of year (end of the school year) during which the study was completed and the physiological demands that could have been occurring due to emotional catharsis. The sandplay process of each child appeared to indicate that each child was experiencing some psychological distress. However, during the four months of sandplay each child seemed to show some signs of some inner emotional healing. According to Kalff s (1980) theory of sandplay, each of the three boys depicted images representing the beginning and middle stages of ego-development. Symbols associated with wholeness, order and sense of Self were also portrayed. From a Jungian perspective, after four months of sandplay, each child experienced some inner healing and gained some inner strength, thus enabling each child to feel stronger when facing external conflict. Sandplay as a therapeutic intervention and as an adjunct to speech therapy appeared to be a beneficial form of therapy for release of unconscious and conscious psychological issues, and a valuable means for gaining further insight into the emotional world of each child.

description: From the beginning, women have lived narrowly defined and restricted lives in roles submissive to male dominance, and outlined with barriers and guidelines that limit freedom to express and live openly. It takes special women to bring it upon themselves to break these barriers for the good of all women, sacrificing themselves so the future generations of women that follow can live in a world where they are not forced to believe in male superiority. It takes a special woman to create enough impact to serve as a role model for women of the future. There have been several such women in history who have fought for what is right and what they are passionate about, and who have risen up, despite the rest of the world pushing them down. The lives of Harriet Tubman and Susan B. Anthony were dedicated to the truth and belief in equal rights for all races and genders. These legacies prove that they were women of vision, women of strength, and women of courage.

Ratio of CaO/K20 > 2 as evidence of a special Rhenish type of medieval stained glass

description: The chemical compositions of more than 300 medieval stained glass samples of different local origin have been published so far. Regarding their characteristic components they can be classified into five types. About 80 % of all investigated samples proved to be potash-lime-silica glasses with roughly equal concentration of CaO and K₂O (type 1). But a small group of little more than 20 samples gave a ratio of CaO/K₂0 > 2 (type 2), all but three of which had been taken from two churches of the Rhine region (St. Catherine Church Oppenheim and Cologne Cathedral). Hence, it seems likely that a corresponding recipe was used there, which was nearly unknown elsewhere in Europe. Investigation of further objects of this region might be of interest for the history of technology.

description: We study a discrete-time portfolio selection problem with partial information and maxi\-mum drawdown constraint. Drift uncertainty in the multidimensional framework is modeled by a prior probability distribution. In this Bayesian framework, we derive the dynamic programming equation using an appropriate change of measure, and obtain semi-explicit results in the Gaussian case. The latter case, with a CRRA utility function is completely solved numerically using recent deep learning techniques for stochastic optimal control problems. We emphasize the informative value of the learning strategy versus the non-learning one by providing empirical performance and sensitivity analysis with respect to the uncertainty of the drift. Furthermore, we show numerical evidence of the close relationship between the non-learning strategy and a no short-sale constrained Merton problem, by illustrating the convergence of the former towards the latter as the maximum drawdown constraint vanishes.

Based on recordings from seven contact microphones attached to the water supply network of a municipal suburb, we trained several shallow and deep anomaly detection models. Inspired by how human experts detect leaks using electronic sounding-sticks, we use these models to repeatedly listen for leaks over a predefined decision horizon. This way we avoid constant monitoring of the system. While we found the detection of leaks in close proximity to be a trivial task for almost all models, neural network based approaches achieve better results at the detection of distant leaks.

description: Measurements provide a novel mechanism for generating the entanglement resource necessary for performing scalable quantum computation. Recently, we proposed a method for performing parity measurements in a coupled quantum dot system. In this paper we generalise this scheme and perform a comprehensive analytic and numerical study of environmental factors. We calculate the effects of possible error sources including non-ideal photon detectors, ineffective spin-selective excitation and dot distinguishability (both spatial and spectral). Furthermore, we present an experimental approach for verifying the success of the parity measurement.

description: Interactions between biomolecules, electrons and protons are essential to many fundamental processes sustaining life. It is therefore of interest to build mathematical models of these bioelectrical processes not only to enhance understanding but also to enable computer models to complement in vitro and in vivo experiments.Such models can never be entirely accurate; it is nevertheless important that the models are compatible with physical principles. Network Thermodynamics, as implemented with bond graphs, provide one approach to creating physically compatible mathematical models of bioelectrical systems. This is illustrated using simple models of ion channels, redox reactions, proton pumps and electrogenic membrane transporters thus demonstrating that the approach can be used to build mathematical and computer models of a wide range of bioelectrical systems.
Measurements of the CKM Angle beta

description: In this article I report on new and updated measurements of the CP-violating parameter beta (phi_1), which is related to the phase of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) quark-mixing matrix of the electroweak interaction. Over the past few years, beta has become the most precisely known parameter of the CKM unitarity triangle that governs the B system. The results presented here were produced by the two B factories, BaBar and Belle, based on their most recent datasets of over 600 million BB events combined. The new world average for sin(2beta), measured in the theoretically and experimentally cleanest charmonium modes, such as B -> J/psi K0s, is sin(2beta) = 0.685 +- 0.032. In addition to these tree-level dominated decays, independent measurements of sin(2beta) are obtained from gluonic b --> s penguin decays, including B --> phi K0s, B --> eta' K0s and others. There are hints, albeit somewhat weaker than earlier this year, that these measurements tend to come out low compared to the charmonium average, giving rise to the tantalizing possibility that New Physics amplitudes could be contributing to the corresponding loop diagrams. Clearly, more data from both experiments are needed to elucidate these intriguing differences.

description: Die HVG verschickte im November 1993 einen Fragebogen an alle Betreiber von vollelektrischen Wannen in Deutschland mit einem Durchsatz von mehr als 10 t/d. 24 ausgefüllte Fragebögen wurden der HVG bis zum April 1994 zurückgesandt. Auch 6 vollelektrische Öfen von Nichtmitgliedern sind in die Auswertung mit aufgenommen. Ausgewertet wurden die Wannengröße (Durchmesser und Badtiefe), Art und Material der Heizelektroden, Gemengeeinlage, Gesamtscherbenanteil, Glasart und gefertigtes Erzeugnis, Schmelzleistung und spezifischer Wärmeverbrauch. In 8 Wannen wird Borosilicatglas erschmolzen, in 6 Kalk-Natronsilicatglas, in 4 Bleikristall- und in 2 Kristallglas, in 2 weiteren C-Glas und in einer Opalglas. Gefertigt werden Glasbehälter, Rohre, Wirtschaftsglas, Fasern, Streuscheiben und Beleuchtungsglas. Sowohl bei der Wannenfläche als auch bei der Badtiefe läßt sich in Abhängigkeit von der maximalen Tagestonnage eine gemeinsame Tendenz bei fast allen Öfen erkennen. Der spezifische Wärmeverbrauch sinkt mit steigendem Durchsatz bzw. größerem Wannenvolumen, da das Verhältnis von Oberfläche zu Wanneninhalt besser wird damit die Wandverluste anteilmäßig geringer werden. An 20 Wannen werden Molybdänelektroden und an 4 Wannen Zinnoxidelektroden eingesetzt. Diese Heizelektroden sind an 9 Wannen als Seiten- und Bodenelektroden eingebaut, an 7 Wannen als Seitenelektroden, an 5 Wannen als Bodenelektroden und an 3 Wannen als Topelektroden.

description: The artists of quilting have used form, materials, and practices quite different from those that, until recently have been identified with "art" . . . . You are clearly in the presence of artists of high technical excellence and design quality who were not treated or recognized as artists until the women's movement. A quilt was made to be used. It was integrated into particularistic relations - the piece of her grandmother's dress, her daughter's pinafore - and was sometimes made by a group of women working together. The making itself and the friendships were built into the design, the collection of fabrics, the stitching . . . . (Smith, 1987, p. 23)

description: The quasinormal modes (QNMs) associated with the decay of Dirac field perturbation around a Schwarzschild black hole is investigated by using continued fraction and Hill-determinant approaches. It is shown that the fundamental quasinormal frequencies become evenly spaced for large angular quantum number and the spacing is given by $ω_{λ+1}- ω_λ=0.38490-0.00000i$. The angular quantum number has the surprising effect of increasing real part of the quasinormal frequencies, but it almost does not affect imaginary part, especially for low overtones. In addition, the quasinormal frequencies also become evenly spaced for large overtone number and the spacing for imaginary part is $Im(ω_{n+1})-Im(ω_n)\approx -i/4M$ which is same as that of the scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational perturbations.

description: Due to increasing threats from malicious software (malware) in both number and complexity, researchers have developed approaches to automatic detection and classification of malware, instead of analyzing methods for malware files manually in a time-consuming effort. At the same time, malware authors have developed techniques to evade signature-based detection techniques used by antivirus companies. Most recently, deep learning is being used in malware classification to solve this issue. In this paper, we use several convolutional neural network (CNN) models for static malware classification. In particular, we use six deep learning models, three of which are past winners of the ImageNet Large-Scale Visual Recognition Challenge. The other three models are CNN-SVM, GRU-SVM and MLP-SVM, which enhance neural models with support vector machines (SVM). We perform experiments using the Malimg dataset, which has malware images that were converted from Portable Executable malware binaries. The dataset is divided into 25 malware families. Comparisons show that the Inception V3 model achieves a test accuracy of 99.24%, which is better than the accuracy of 98.52% achieved by the current state-of-the-art system called the M-CNN model.

description: An application of quantum cloning to optimally interface a quantum system with a classical observer is presented, in particular we describe a procedure to perform a minimal disturbance measurement on a single qubit by adopting a 1->2 cloning machine followed by a generalized measurement on a single clone and the anti-clone or on the two clones. Such scheme has been applied to enhance the transmission fidelity over a lossy quantum channel.

Effect of fast electrons on the gain of a direct-drive laser fusion target

description: The results of numerical and theoretical studies of the gain of direct-drive inertial confinement fusion (ICF) target, which includes a kinetic description of energy transfer by laser-accelerated fast electrons, are presented. The range of initial temperature of fast electrons and fraction of laser energy contained in these particles were chosen based on the results of recent experiments at the National Ignition Facility (NIF).The effect of 'wandering' of fast electrons is taken into account. It is due to a remoteness of the region of fast electron generation from the ablation surface of imploded target. As a result a significant fraction of particles do not fall into the compressed part of target. The `wandering' effect leads to decreasing the negative effect of fast electron generation on the target's gain.
Near-Tc second-harmonic emission in high-density bulk MgB2 at microwave frequency

description: We discuss the microwave second-harmonic generation in high-density bulk MgB2, prepared by the reactive liquid Mg infiltration technology. The intensity of the harmonic signal has been investigated as a function of temperature and amplitudes of the DC and microwave magnetic fields. The results are discussed in the framework of a phenomenological theory, based on the two-fluid model, which assumes that both the microwave and static magnetic fields, penetrating in the surface layers of the sample, weakly perturb the partial concentrations of the normal and superconducting fluids. We show that, in order to account for the experimental results, it is essential to suppose that in MgB2 the densities of the normal and condensed fluids linearly depend on the temperature.

Sheaves on moment graphs and a localization of Verma flags

description: To any moment graph G we assign a subcategory V of the category of sheaves on G together with an exact structure. We show that in the case that the graph is associated to a non-critical block of the equivariant category O over a symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebra, V is equivalent (as an exact category) to the subcategory of modules that admit a Verma flag. The projective modules correspond under this equivalence to the intersection cohomology sheaves on the graph.

Subjects: subject: 660

description: Knowledge about the exchange of gases between bubbles and molten glass is o f vital importance for bubble diagnosis. This process was studied using melting trials with very well-defined test bubbles (tracer bubbles), and bubble analysis. These experiments enable the direct determination of the gas permeability (the product of solubility and diffusivity) which describes the rate of gas exchange. In literature, little reliable data on the permeability can be found due to experimental problems with the most common method of studying gas exchange, gas extraction. For CO₂ in television screenglass a permeability of about 2 * 10⁻¹⁷ mol/(m s Pa) at 1305°C was found.
Glass with super thermal insulation properties. An important element in the fight to reduce heat consumption in buildings

Subjects: subject: 660

description: The application of heat-insulating glasses gives rise to the preservation of fossil energy and thus represents an important contribution for energy savings. Since many years the glass industry provides highly efficient insulating glass systems with low U values as well as with various solar transmissions. These systems have a strong impact on an architecture which cares for the aspect of ecology. The glass industry is well-prepared with the heat-insulating glasses to meet the pending regulations for heating of buildings. These new glass products have been introduced already. Furthermore, the glass industry is prepared to adjust to the capacity requirements as a consequence of further standardization by providing neutral, highly transparent, coated insulating glasses. In particular the paper deals with the solar contribution to the heating of buildings, the state of art in the manufacturing of heat-insulating glasses with low-emissivity coatings and gas filling, and the influence of the window on the heat requirement of buildings.
Perfectionism in university students from Chinese and European cultural backgrounds : an investigation on construct validity
Creators: name: Varey, Christine Anne
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Perfectionism has been related to both adaptive functioning such as positive achievement striving, as well as to negative outcomes such as procrastination and depression. Numerous studies, using primarily Caucasian subjects, document a relationship between multidimensional perfectionism and depression. Few studies have examined perfectionism in samples from different cultural backgrounds. The present multidimensional conceptualization and operational definition of perfectionism remains to be tested in terms of meaningfulness and applicability to other cultural groups. Therefore the overall aim of the current study is to determine if the Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (Hewitt & Flett, 1991) shows evidence of construct validity in a sample of university students from Chinese cultural backgrounds. Evidence of construct validity is obtained by investigating similarities and differences between the two cultural groups in the following: the internal structure of the measure; and the relationships between the measure and other measures (concurrent validity). Differences in mean levels of perfectionism between Chinese-Canadian and European Canadian students are also investigated. Data for 191 subjects are reported for the following measures: Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (Hewitt & Flett, 1991); Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (Frost et al, 1990); Beck Depression Inventory (Beck et al, 1979); Suinn-Lew Asian Self-Identity Acculturation Scale (Suinn et al, 1987); a Background Information Sheet. Evidence of construct validity and of the previously documented relationship between socially-prescribed perfectionism and depression was found for the Chinese-Canadian sample. The current study lends support for using the Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (Hewitt & Flett, 1991) with Chinese-Canadian university students.
