description: We report on the first realization of a single bosonic Josephson junction, implemented by two weakly linked Bose-Einstein condensates in a double-well potential. In order to fully investigate the nonlinear tunneling dynamics we measure the density distribution in situ and deduce the relative phase between the two condensates from interference fringes. Our results verify the predicted nonlinear generalization of tunneling oscillations in superconducting and superfluid Josephson junctions. Additionally we confirm a novel nonlinear effect known as macroscopic quantum self-trapping, which leads to the inhibition of large amplitude tunneling oscillations.

description: Traditional Traffic Engineering (TE) solutions can achieve the optimal or near-optimal performance by rerouting as many flows as possible. However, they do not usually consider the negative impact, such as packet out of order, when frequently rerouting flows in the network. To mitigate the impact of network disturbance, one promising TE solution is forwarding the majority of traffic flows using Equal-Cost Multi-Path (ECMP) and selectively rerouting a few critical flows using Software-Defined Networking (SDN) to balance link utilization of the network. However, critical flow rerouting is not trivial because the solution space for critical flow selection is enormous. Moreover, it is impossible to design a heuristic algorithm for this problem based on fixed and simple rules, since rule-based heuristics are unable to adapt to the changes of the traffic matrix and network dynamics. In this paper, we propose CFR-RL (Critical Flow Rerouting-Reinforcement Learning), a Reinforcement Learning-based scheme that learns a policy to select critical flows for each given traffic matrix automatically. CFR-RL then reroutes these selected critical flows to balance link utilization of the network by formulating and solving a simple Linear Programming (LP) problem. Extensive evaluations show that CFR-RL achieves near-optimal performance by rerouting only 10%-21.3% of total traffic.

We focus the input beam of femtosecond pulses on one core only, to identify transitions between inter-core oscillations, self-trapping in the cross core, and self-trapping of the pulse in the straight core. A model based in the system of coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations provides surprisingly good agreement with the experimental findings.

description: The f-electron spectral function of the Falicov-Kimball model is calculated via a Keldysh-based many-body formalism originally developed by Brandt and Urbanek. We provide results for both the Bethe lattice and the hypercubic lattice at half filling. Since the numerical computations are quite sensitive to the discretization along the Kadanoff-Baym contour and to the maximum cutoff in time that is employed, we analyze the accuracy of the results using a variety of different moment sum-rules and spectral formulas. We find that the f-electron spectral function has interesting temperature dependence becoming a narrow single-peaked function for small U and developing a gap, with two broader peaks for large U.

description: We report the magnetic structure of nominally 10% Cd-doped CeIrIn$_5$, CeIr(In$_{0.9}$Cd$_{0.1}$)$_5$, determined by elastic neutron scattering. Magnetic intensity was observed only at the ordering wave vector $Q_{AF} = (1/2,1/2,1/2)$, commensurate with the crystal lattice. A staggered moment of 0.47(3)$μ_B$ at 1.8 K resides on the Ce ion. The magnetic moments are found to be aligned along the crystallographic $c$ axis. This is further confirmed by magnetic susceptibility data, which suggest the $c$ axis to be the easy magnetic axis. The determined magnetic structure is strikingly different from the incommensurate antiferromagnetic ordering of the closely related compound CeRhIn$_5$, in which the magnetic moments are antiferromagnetically aligned within the tetragonal basal plane.

description: With the aim of building a data-set of spectral properties of well studied early-type galaxies showing emission lines, we present intermediate resolution spectra of 50 galaxies in the nearby Universe. The sample, which covers several of the E and S0 morphological sub-classes, is biased toward objects that might be expected to have ongoing and recent star formation, at least in small amounts, because of the presence of the emission lines. The emission are expected to come from the combination of active galactic nuclei and star formation regions within the galaxies. Sample galaxies are located in environments corresponding to a broad range of local galaxy densities, although predominantly in low density environments. Our long-slit spectra cover the 3700 - 7250 A wavelength range with a spectral resolution of about 7.6 A at 5550 A. The specific aim of this paper, and our first step on the investigation, is to map the underlying galaxy stellar population by measuring, along the slit, positioned along the galaxy major axis, line--strength indices at several, homogeneous galacto-centric distances. For each object we extracted 7 luminosity weighted apertures corrected for the galaxy ellipticity and 4 gradients and we measured 25 line-strength indices. The paper introduces the sample, presents the observations, describes the data reduction procedures, the extraction of apertures and gradients, the determination and correction of the line--strength indices, the procedure adopted to transform them into the Lick-IDS System and the procedures adopted for the emission correction. We finally discuss the comparisons between our dataset and line-strength indices available in the literature.

description: Stellar rotation periods can be determined by observing brightness variations caused by active magnetic regions transiting visible stellar disk as the star rotates. The successful stellar photometric surveys stemming from the Kepler and TESS observations led to the determination of rotation periods in tens of thousands of young and active stars. However, there is still a lack of information about rotation periods of older and less active stars, like the Sun. The irregular temporal profiles of light curves caused by the decay times of active regions, which are comparable to or even shorter than stellar rotation periods, combine with the random emergence of active regions to make period determination for such stars very difficult. We tested the performance of the new method for the determination of stellar rotation periods against stars with previously determined rotation periods. The method is based on calculating the gradient of the power spectrum (GPS) and identifying the position of the inflection point (i.e. point with the highest gradient). The GPS method is specifically aimed at determining rotation periods of low activity stars like the Sun. We applied the GPS method to 1047 Sun-like stars observed by the Kepler telescope. We show that the GPS method returns precise values of stellar rotation periods. Furthermore, it allows us to constrain the ratio between facular and spot areas of active regions at the moment of their emergence. We show that relative facular area decreases with stellar rotation rate. Our results suggest that the GPS method can be successfully applied to retrieve periods of stars with both regular and non-regular light curves.

description: Nonequilibrium quantum mechanics can be solved with the Keldysh formalism, which evolves the quantum mechanical states forward in time in the presence of a time-dependent field, and then evolves them backward in time, undoing the effect of the time-dependent field. The Feynman path integral over the Keldysh contour is employed to calculate the strongly correlated Green's function. We examine the accuracy of this procedure for the simplest problem that requires a nonequilibrium formulation: the f-electron spectral function of the spinless Falicov-Kimball model.

description: We consider an optimal control problem $\cQ$ governed by an elliptic quasivariational inequality with unilateral constraints. The existence of optimal pairs of the problem is a well known result, see \cite{SS}, for instance. We associate to $\cQ$ a new optimal control problem $\wQ$, obtained by perturbing the state inequality (including the set of constraints and the nonlinear operator) and the cost functional, as well. Then, we provide sufficient conditions which guarantee the convergence of solutions of Problem $\wQ$ to a solution of Problem $\cQ$. The proofs are based on convergence results for elliptic quasivariational inequalities, obtained by using arguments of compactness, lower semicontinuity, monotonicity, penalty and various estimates. Finally, we illustrate the use of the abstract convergence results in the study of optimal control associated with two boundary value problems. The first one describes the equilibrium of an elastic body in frictional contact with an obstacle, the so-called foundation. The process is static and the contact is modeled with normal compliance and unilateral constraint, associated to a version of Coulomb's law of dry friction. The second one describes a stationary heat transfer problem with unilateral constraints. For the two problems we prove existence, uniqueness and convergence results together with the corresponding physical interpretation.

description: Steering traffic in cities is a very complex task, since improving efficiency involves the coordination of many actors. Traditional approaches attempt to optimize traffic lights for a particular density and configuration of traffic. The disadvantage of this lies in the fact that traffic densities and configurations change constantly. Traffic seems to be an adaptation problem rather than an optimization problem. We propose a simple and feasible alternative, in which traffic lights self-organize to improve traffic flow. We use a multi-agent simulation to study three self-organizing methods, which are able to outperform traditional rigid and adaptive methods. Using simple rules and no direct communication, traffic lights are able to self-organize and adapt to changing traffic conditions, reducing waiting times, number of stopped cars, and increasing average speeds.

description: Generation and development of migrant workers’ problems are analyzed from the perspective of economics. There are economic factors causing migrant workers’ problems: imbalance in the industrial structure brings farmers living pressure; urban modern civilization is attractive to farmers; urban economic development needs a large number of agricultural laborers engaged in manual labor. Moreover, relevant countermeasures are proposed. The dual economic structure is to be broken to gradually eliminate the barrier between urban and rural areas; an unified and standard labor market is to be established to narrow the gap between urban and rural areas; overall considerations should be taken and the reform of matching system should be quickened; the construction of urbanization is to be duly promoted to improve the level of modernization in the countryside.
Floquet spectrum and electronic transitions of tilted anisotropic Dirac materials under electromagnetic radiation: monodromy matrix approach

description: We analyze the quasienergy-spectrum and the valence to conduction-band transition probabilities of a tilted anisotropic Dirac material subject to linearly and circularly polarized electromagnetic fields. The quasienergy-spectrum is numerically calculated from the monodromy matrix of the Schrödinger equation via the Floquet theorem for arbitrarily intense electromagnetic fields. To asses the valence to conduction-band transition times we deduced a Rabi-like formula in the rotating wave approximation. In the strong-field regime the spectrum as a function of the momentum components divides into two very distinctive regions. In the first, located around the Dirac point, the quasi-spectrum is significantly distorted by the field as the electronic parameters are renormalized by electronic-dressing. In the second, all the characteristics of the free carrier spectrum are retained. Linearly polarized light anisotropically deforms the spectrum according to the field polarization direction. Dirac-like points form around the original Dirac point. The quasi spectrum of circularly polarized light, instead, exhibits a gap formation in the Dirac point and has elliptical symmetry. We show that, in contrast to the single-photon resonant transitions that characterize the weak-field regime, the strong-field regime is dominated by multiphoton resonances.

The role of SHIP in hematopoiesis
Creators: name: Hughes, Michael R.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The SH2-containing inositol-5'-phosphatase, SHIP, has been shown, by comparing SHTP+/+ and -/- cells, to be. a critical negative regulator of the phosphatidylinositol (PI)-3- kinase (PI3K) pathway in many hematopoietic cell lineages. However, SHIP-/- mice are neither polycythemic nor profoundly anemic and we wanted to know why. Our studies revealed that SHIP-/- mice suffer from reticulocytosis and show an enhanced recovery from phenylhydrazine (PHz)-induced anemia accompanied by a more rapid accumulation of CFUE and late erythroid progenitors in the spleens of SHIP-/- mice. In addition, following PHz treatment, SHIP-/- plasma possesses higher erythroid growth-stimulating activity than SHIP+/+ plasma. Interestingly, however, erythropoietin (Epo) dose-response studies revealed little difference between SHIP+/+ and -/- progenitors and this may be because perturbed erythropoiesis in SHIP-/- mice is caused by extrinsic mechanisms. Although SHIP becomes tyrosine phosphorylated in response to multiple stimuli, the kinase(s) responsible has not been identified. Using phosphospecific antibodies we developed, we found that the two NPXYs within SHIP are the major sites of tyrosine phosphorylation in response to cytokines, growth factors, G protein-coupled receptor ligands, immunoreceptor ligands and osmotic stress. Moreover, using the Src family inhibitor, PP2 as well as cells from Lyn-/- mice, we found that the Src family is primarily responsible for SHIP'S tyrosine phosphorylation. Moreover, consistent with this being a direct effect, we found SHIP and Lyn associate in B-cells and this association increases with BCR + FcγRIIB aggregation. Interestingly, Lyn-SHIP association appears to be mediated via Lyn's SH3 and a previously unidentified PXXP motif proximal to SHIP'S SH2 domain. Lastly, we investigated the role of SHIP in human hematopoietic cells using small interfering RNA to silence SHIP expression in the erythroleukemic cell line, TF-1. We demonstrated complete and long-lasting knockdown of SHIP protein in these cells and this resulted in a more rapid phosphorylation of Akt, GSK3β and ERK1/2 in response to GMCSF. Furthermore, SHIP-deficient TF-1 cells survived better with low or no cytokines but displayed reduced proliferation at high cytokine concentrations. Further investigation into the enhanced survival of SHIP-knockdown TF-1 cells suggested that this was mediated in part by the PI3K-induced maintenance of the pro-survival Bcl-2 member, Mcl-1.

description: The light curves of type I X-ray bursts (XRBs) result from energy released from the atmosphere of a neutron star when accreted hydrogen and helium ignite and burn explosively via the rp-process. Since charged particle reaction rates are both density and very temperature dependent, a simulation model must provide accurate values of these variables to predict the reaction flow. This paper uses a self-consistent one-dimensional model calculation with a constant accretion rate of dM/dt=5e16g/s (0.045 Eddington) and reports on the detailed rp-process reaction flow of a given burst.

description: Nanocrystals based on metal-halide perovskites offer a promising material platform for highly efficient lighting. Using transient optical spectroscopy, we study excitation recombination dynamics in manganese-doped CsPb(Cl,Br)3 perovskite nanocrystals. We find an increase in the intrinsic excitonic radiative recombination rate upon doping, which is typically a challenging material property to tailor. Supported by ab initio calculations, we can attribute the enhanced emission rates to increased exciton localization through lattice periodicity breaking from Mn dopants, which increases exciton effective masses and overlap of electron and hole wavefunctions and thus the oscillator strength. Our report of a fundamental strategy for improving luminescence efficiencies in perovskite nanocrystals will be valuable for maximizing efficiencies in light-emitting applications.
All Maximal Independent Sets and Dynamic Dominance for Sparse Graphs

description: We describe algorithms, based on Avis and Fukuda's reverse search paradigm, for listing all maximal independent sets in a sparse graph in polynomial time and delay per output. For bounded degree graphs, our algorithms take constant time per set generated; for minor-closed graph families, the time is O(n) per set, and for more general sparse graph families we achieve subquadratic time per set. We also describe new data structures for maintaining a dynamic vertex set S in a sparse or minor-closed graph family, and querying the number of vertices not dominated by S; for minor-closed graph families the time per update is constant, while it is sublinear for any sparse graph family. We can also maintain a dynamic vertex set in an arbitrary m-edge graph and test the independence of the maintained set in time O(sqrt m) per update. We use the domination data structures as part of our enumeration algorithms.

description: A expansão dos níveis de produção perseguidos atualmente com vistas à elevação dos níveis de emprego e renda gerados pela economia e a manutenção dos padrões de consumo demandados pela sociedade fazem com que haja uma crescente pressão sobre os recursos naturais. A análise dos processos e produtos gerados pelas indústrias tornaria viável adoção de medidas capazes de obter resultados mais eficientes. Para possibilitar tais análises, têm sido desenvolvidos diversos conceitos teóricos e métodos que visam a melhoria do processo produtivo. O conceito de externalidades e o método de Análise do Ciclo de Vida (ACV) fazem parte desse arcabouço. A partir de sua aplicação, tornam-se possíveis a adoção de medidas que busquem a utilização sustentável dos recursos naturais e a redução da geração de resíduos pelas atividades produtivas. No Brasil, muitas empresas vêm buscando a redução dos resíduos gerados e, ainda, utilizam a reciclagem como instrumento de “eficiência ecológica” e fonte complementar de renda. Os números indicam que, a reciclagem, além de reduzir o volume de dejetos na natureza tem sido responsável pela geração de emprego e renda, o que torna possível a inclusão de diversos cidadãos ao mercado de trabalho.------------------------------------------The expansion of the production levels searched actually aiming at the increasing of employment and income generated by the economy and the maintaining of the consumption standards demanded by society cause an increasing pressure on natural resources. The analysis of the process and products generated by the industries would become feasible the adoption of measures capable of obtaining more efficient results. To make possible such analyses several theoretical concepts and methods have been developed that aim the betterment of the productive process. The concept of externalities and the method of Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) make part of this device. From its application the adoption of measures that search the sustainable utilization of natural resources and the reduction of the generation of wastes by productive activities are made possible. In Brazil many enterprises have been searching the reduction of the wastes generated and, still, use recycling as an instrument of “ecological efficiency” and as a complementary source of income. Numbers indicate that recycling, besides reducing the volume of wastes in nature, has been responsible for generation of income and employment, what makes possible the inclusion of many citizens into the work market.

description: In this letter we present the study of the eightfold degeneracy in the $(θ_{13},δ)$ measurement including both appearance and disappearance channels. We analyse, for definiteness, the case of a standard low-$γ$ $β$-Beam and a 4 MWatt SPL Super-Beam facility, both aiming at a UNO-like Mton water Cerenkov detector located at the Frejus laboratory, $L = 130$ km. In the $β$-Beam case, the \nue disappearance channel does not improve the $(θ_{13},δ)$ measurement when a realistic (i.e. $\ge$ 2%) systematic error is included. In the Super-Beam case, the \numu disappearance channel could, instead, be quite useful in reducing the impact of the eightfold degeneracy in the $(θ_{13},δ)$ measurement, especially once the error on the atmospheric mass difference is fully taken into account in the fit.

description: The evolution and collapse of a gaseous toroidal vortex under the action of self-gravitation are considered using the Hamiltonian mechanics approach. It is shown that evolution occurs in three main stages separated by characteristic time scales. First, a compression along the small radius to a quasi-equilibrium state takes place, followed by a slower compression along the large radius to a more stable compact vortex object. In the latter stage, the possibility of effective scattering and ejection of particles along the vortex axis (jet formation) is detected. As a result, mass, energy, and momentum losses take place, and the vortex collapses.

description: Human gesture recognition has assumed a capital role in industrial applications, such as Human-Machine Interaction. We propose an approach for segmentation and classification of dynamic gestures based on a set of handcrafted features, which are drawn from the skeleton data provided by the Kinect sensor. The module for gesture detection relies on a feedforward neural network which performs framewise binary classification. The method for gesture recognition applies a sliding window, which extracts information from both the spatial and temporal dimensions. Then we combine windows of varying durations to get a multi-temporal scale approach and an additional gain in performance. Encouraged by the recent success of Recurrent Neural Networks for time series domains, we also propose a method for simultaneous gesture segmentation and classification based on the bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory cells, which have shown ability for learning the temporal relationships on long temporal scales. We evaluate all the different approaches on the dataset published for the ChaLearn Looking at People Challenge 2014. The most effective method achieves a Jaccard index of 0.75, which suggests a performance almost on pair with that presented by the state-of-the-art techniques. At the end, the recognized gestures are used to interact with a collaborative robot.

description: Os efeitos gerados pela manutenção do atual padrão de consumo sustentado pelo homem tornam cada vez mais evidente a inviabilidade do mesmo. A pressão exercida sobre os recursos naturais enquanto fatores de produção e sumidouros depositários de resíduos oriundos da utilização desses, faz com que as questões referentes a possíveis limites à sua utilização sejam discutidas. A teoria econômica vem buscando, através de seu arcabouço, determinar formas eficientes e sustentáveis para a utilização dos recursos ambientais. Tais teorias apresentam argumentos sobre o limite, as características, as finalidades dadas aos recursos naturais, entre outros. A Economia Ambiental e a Economia Ecológica são correntes metodológicas que buscam interpretar o problema ambiental e determinar ações que busquem resultados eficientes, partindo de considerações acerca das características de tais recursos. Este trabalho busca analisar os principais fundamentos das referidas correntes metodológicas, com vistas a contribuir para o debate a respeito da problemática ambiental.--------------------------------------------------The effects generated by the maintaining of the actual standard of sustainable consumption by man make more and more evident its impracticability. Pressure performed on natural resources while factors of production and depositor sewers of wastes originated from their utilization cause the discussion of questions relative to the possible limits to their utilization. The economic theory has been searching, by means of its device, to determine efficient and sustainable ways to the utilization of natural resources. Such theories present arguments about the limit, the features, the finalities given to natural resources, among others. The Environmental Economy and the Ecological Economy are methodological streams that search to interpret the environmental issue and to determine actions that search efficient results, departing from considerations about the features of such resources. This work aims to analyse the main bases of the cited methodological streams aiming to contribute for the debate about the environmental problematic.
Making magic : facilitating collaborative processes

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the meaning and value of 'making magic,' facilitating collaborative processes. In this study the term 'making magic' is a metaphor for the peak experiences that happen when facilitating collaborative processes with groups (two or more people) in workplace, community, and/or classroom settings. Four other educational/organizational consultants joined me in this inquiry that was itself a collaborative process that I facilitated in three stages: interviews; collaborative conversation; and data analysis. Two key areas of literature, appreciative inquiry and transformative education, inform and are informed by this study. I used appreciative inquiry as a research methodology and the models, theories and applications of appreciative inquiry inform our practices of 'making magic' The transformative education literature added a critical lens that is lacking in appreciative inquiry, the notions of the impact of social structural differences on people's ability to appreciate and be appreciated. The primary findings of this inquiry are the notions of critical appreciative processes, and 'making magic' through being present, vulnerable and courageous. Critical appreciative processes combine the appreciative and the critical. These processes could enhance the possibility of magic, the transformation that happens when groups of people collaborate effectively by being interconnected and authentic, present, with each other. The group transforms to be more than the individuals put together and/or the group process aggrandizes the learning. Critical appreciative processes could create sacred spaces, holistic spaces that take into consideration the spirit and emotions as well as the intellect and body. Facilitators intentionally create these spaces for the possibility of magic through a variety of strategies and by being present, vulnerable and courageous themselves, being who they are, as they facilitate. The collaborative group in this inquiry moved beyond the initial peak experiences of their work to critically examine the challenges of 'making magic' It is hard work. But the value of the work is the possibility of constructive change in the worlds within which we facilitate. It is of value to us as well, because we continue to learn and grow through our 'magic making' work.

description: Este artigo apresenta que o desenvolvimento de técnicas e práticas administrativas, orientadas pelos preceitos do desenvolvimento sustentável e voltadas à organização familiar rural tem como horizonte a fixação do homem no campo, melhoria de sua qualidade de vida e, em última análise, permitir sua inclusão social. Os objetivos do trabalho são: identificar e avaliar as práticas gestão orientadas ao desenvolvimento sustentável nas organizações familiares rurais da Gleba Triângulo. Os métodos utilizados foram: pesquisa bibliográfica; aplicação de questionários semi-estruturados; organização e análise dos dados colhidos, e; posteriormente visitas a campo para verificar de fato a realidade. Como resultado, poucas ferramentas administrativas encontradas e uso incipiente das práticas de gestão, portanto torna-se necessário apresentar a esta organização familiar rural que o uso das práticas de gestão e da sustentabilidade, apesar da escala em que atuam, serem o caminho para a continuidade na atividade agrícola e inserção num novo mercado mais social.----------------------------------------------This article presents that the techniques development and administrative practices, guided by the precepts of the sustainable development to the rural family organization, has as horizon man's fixation in the field, improvement of their life quality and, in last analysis, allow their social inclusion. The work goals are: identify and to evaluate the administration practices guided to the sustainable development in the rural family organizations of the Gleba Triangulo. The used methods were: bibliographical research; semi-structured questionnaires application; organization and analysis of the collected data, and; afterwards visits for field to verify in fact the reality. As result, there were few the found administrative tools and the incipient administration practices use, therefore it becomes necessary to present to this rural family organization that the administration practices and sustainability use, besides the scale in which they act, be the way for the continuity in the agricultural activity and insert in a new socialer market.
