description: Storm, Sherwood, Roe, Tressoldi, Rock and Risio (2017) performed a meta-analysis of laboratory studies of ESP in dreams, finding a moderate overall effect (r = .20).  Certain statistical decisions, such as primarily reporting unweighted effects, may have inflated these observations.  In the current article, I perform an inverse-variance weighted meta-analysis using the database provided by Storm et al., finding a much smaller overall effect (r = .07).  I also find evidence that a significant relationship exists between effect size and sample size, suggesting that the prior results may have been primarily driven by large effects found in small-n studies.  I suggest that future researchers of ESP in dreams should produce more large-n studies, which could alleviate many notable criticisms of the current psi literature.

title: The Hustle and Bustle of the Coast Salish Potlatch  An Exploratory Case Study of Gift Economic Exchange and  Bird Resources at the Village of Xwe’Chi’eXen, 45WH1
Creators: name: Sholin, Carl E.
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2018

description:
Bird remains are regularly found in archaeological deposits in the Salish Sea region. Predominant paradigms to explain the distribution of archaeological faunal remains primarily focus on diet. Yet, uses of bird remains for purposes other than food are also widely represented in ethnographies. The economic structure of the potlatch is an alternative model to account for the presence of archaeological avifauna.  Avifaunal materials contribute to a continuous social system as both food and wealth objects. How avian resources were harvested, transformed into commodities, and used to signal rank and prestige in the context of the potlatch are considered. This study explores how these themes are reflected in the archaeological record over the last 3,500 years of occupation at the village of Xwe’Chi’eXen, 45WH1. A total of 2,109 bird bones were analyzed from two time components that generally correspond with the Locarno Beach and Marpole typological phases. Several patterns consistent with formalization of the gift economy over time were observed. A high frequency of duck wings, and evidence of butchery suggests that wings were intentionally removed, possibly for their flight feathers. Concentrations of bird remains at two locations may indicate potlatch or other ritual related deposition. Increases in frequency of naturally aggregating taxa, and changing patterns of avian diversity over time, are interpreted as increasing reliance on mass harvest hunting techniques. These lines of evidence are argued to represent intensification in the gift economy that result in the formalization of harvest locations as lineage property.
Enhanced Preheating after Multi-Field Inflation: On the Importance of being Special

description: We discuss preheating after multi-field inflation in the presence of several preheat matter fields that become light in the vicinity of (but not at) the inflatons' VEV, at distinct extra-species-points (ESP); this setup is motivated by inflationary models that include particle production during inflation, e.g.trapped inflation, grazing ESP encounters or modulated trapping, among others. While de-phasing of inflatons tends to suppress parametric resonance, we find two new effects leading to efficient preheating: particle production during the first in-fall (efficient if many preheat matter fields are present) and a subsequent (narrow) resonance phase (efficient if an ESP happens to be at one of several distinct distances from the inflatons' VEV). Particles produced during the first in-fall are comprised of many species with low occupation number, while the latter are made up of a few species with high occupation number. We provide analytic descriptions of both phases in the absence of back-reaction, which we test numerically. We further perform lattice simulations to investigate the effects of back-reaction. We find resonances to be robust and the most likely cause of inflaton decay in multi-field trapped inflation if ESP distributions are dense.

title: The Geology and Mineralogy of Bentonites and Associated Rocks of the Chuckanut Formation, Mt. Higgins Area, North Cascades, Washington
Creators: name: Cruver, Susan Kinder
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 1981

description:
In the Mt. Higgins area, the Chuckanut Formation is in probable fault contact with pre-Tertiary metamorphlc rocks. The Chuckanut is over- lain by Oso volcanics (zircon fission track age of 43.2 ± 1.9 MY). A diorite body (k/At date = 53 ± 8 MY) crops out in the Granite Lake area and is thought to be intrusive into the Chuckanut. Sedimentary rocks of much of the study area are dominantly thick- bedded arkoses that are generally cross-bedded, and resemble the Chuckanut type section. Sediments cropping out along and near Deer Creek are different; black, bituminous shale is the dominant rock type, and several bentonite beds are also present. Some bentonites are only a few centimeters thick and are not lithified, whereas others are thicker, lithifled and composed of amalgamated beds, some of which are graded. Glass shards and other volcanic detritus of the air-fall tephra have altered to form K-rectorlte upon heating to 275-285°C. A mld-Eocene date of 44.5 MY was obtained by fission track dating of zircons from one of the bentonites. It is proposed that the Deer Creek area sediments were deposited in lakes and other low energy environments on a swampy floodplain. Kalkberg-type mixed-layer illlte/smectite is found elsewhere in the Mt. Higgins area, and is probably indicative of higher temperatures than those which created the K-rectorite. On Mt. Higgins, the presence of andalusite suggests temperatures near 400°C. Cordlerite-bearing sediments indicate temperatures of 500°C. Heating was a result of a large geothermal system initiated by the intrusion of the Granite Lake diorite and possibly other related intrusions, and may be associated with Oso volcanlsm. Magmatic activity may have affected the area for several million years, perhaps sporadically.

description: We have obtained Spitzer Space Telescope Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS) 24 μm and 70 μm observations of 215 nearby, Hipparcos B- and A-type common proper motion single and binary systems in the nearest OB association, Scorpius-Centaurus. Combining our MIPS observations with those of other ScoCen stars in the literature, we estimate 24 μm B+A-type disk fractions of 17/67 (25+6%), 36/131 (27+4%), and 23/95 (24+5%) for Upper Scorpius (\sim11 Myr), Upper Centaurus Lupus (\sim15 Myr), and Lower Centaurus Crux (\sim17 Myr), respectively, somewhat smaller disk fractions than previously obtained for F- and G-type members. We confirm previous IRAS excess detections and present new discoveries of 51 protoplanetary and debris disk systems, with fractional infrared luminosities ranging from LIR/L\ast = 1e-6 to 1e-2 and grain temperatures ranging from Tgr = 40 - 300 K. In addition, we confirm that the 24 μm and 70 μm excesses (or fractional infrared luminosities) around B+A type stars are smaller than those measured toward F+G type stars and hypothesize that the observed disk property dependence on stellar mass may be the result of a higher stellar companion fraction around B- and A-type stars at 10 - 200 AU and/or the presence of Jupiter-mass companions in the disks around F- and G- type stars. Finally, we note that the majority of the ScoCen 24 μm excess sources also possess 12 μm excess, indicating that Earth-like planets may be forming via collisions in the terrestrial planet zone at \sim10 - 100 Myr.

title: Net Shore-drift of Pierce County, Washington
Creators: name: Harp, Brad D.
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 1983

description:
The coastline of Pierce County, Washington, lies along the glacially scoured channels of Puget Sound. The highly crenelated coastline totals 373 km in length, with approximately 80 km contributed by five major islands and five minor islands. This study was conducted to determine the long-term net shore-drift along the Pierce County coast. Geomorphic and sedimentologic indicators were used to determine drift directions. These indicators include: direction of spit growth, change in bluff morphology and beach profile, stream diversion, sediment-size gradation, identifiable sediments (sediments from an identifiable source), and nearshore sand bar orientation. Sediment supplied to the foreshore is derived primarily from the coastal bluffs by wave erosion and mass wasting. Sediment movement is compartmentalized into drift cells that include zones of erosion, transport, and deposition. These drift cells vary in length from 50 m to about 11.5 km. Evident throughout this study area is the importance of fetch, which directly influences the pattern of net shore-drift. Shore drift patterns can be and have been disrupted by human modification of the coastline. Shore defenses, marinas, commercial sites, and industrial sites have interrupted and divided former drift cells along much of Pierce County's eastern coastline. Throughout this area, and in other areas of the county, sediment supply to the foreshore has been reduced or eliminated by the emplacement of bulkheads, seawalls, or nearshore structures that damp wave action.

description: Aims. A model of heliosheath density and energy spectra of alpha-particles and He+ ions carried by the solar wind is developed. Neutralization of heliosheath He+ ions, mainly by charge exchange (CX) with neutral interstellar H and He atoms, gives rise to ~0.2 - ~100 keV fluxes of energetic neutral He atoms (He ENA). Such fluxes, if observed, would give information about plasmas in the heliosheath and heliospheric tail. Methods. Helium ions crossing the termination shock (TS) constitute suprathermal (test) particles convected by (locally also diffusing through) hydrodynamically calculated background plasma flows (three versions of flows are employed). The He ions proceed from the TS towards heliopause (HP) and finally to the heliospheric tail (HT). Calculations of the evolution of alpha- and He+ particle densities and energy spectra include binary interactions with background plasma and interstellar atoms, adiabatic heating (cooling) resulting from flow compression (rarefaction), and Coulomb scattering on background plasma. Results. Neutralization of suprathermal He ions leads to the emergence of He ENA fluxes with energy spectra modified by the Compton-Getting effect at emission and ENA loss during flight to the Sun. Energy-integrated He ENA intensities are in the range ~0.05 - ~50 cm^-2 s^-1 sr^-1 depending on spectra at the TS (assumed kappa-distributions), background plasma model, and look direction. The tail/apex intensity ratio varies between ~1.8 and ~800 depending on model assumptions. Energy spectra are broad with maxima in the ~0.2 - ~3 keV range depending on the look direction and model. Conclusions. Expected heliosheath He ENA fluxes may be measurable based on the capabilities of the IBEX spacecraft. Data could offer insight into the heliosheath structure and improve understanding of the post-TS solar wind plasmas. HT direction and extent could be assessed.

description: We investigate the thermal Casimir interaction of a suspended graphene described by the Dirac model with a plate made of dielectric or metallic materials. The reflection coefficients on graphene expressed in terms of a temperature-dependent polarization tensor are used. We demonstrate that for a graphene with nonzero mass gap parameter the Casimir free energy remains nearly constant (and the thermal correction negligibly small) over some temperature interval. For the interaction of graphene with metallic plate, the free energy is nearly the same, irrespective of whether the metal is nonmagnetic or magnetic and whether it is described using the Drude- or plasma-model approaches. The free energy computed using the Dirac model was compared with that computed using the hydrodynamic model of graphene and big differences accessible for experimental observation have been found. For dielectric and nonmagnetic metallic plates described by the Drude model these differences vanish with increasing temperature (separation). However, for nonmagnetic metals described by the plasma model and for magnetic metals, a severe dependence on the chosen theoretical description of graphene remains even at high temperature. In all cases the analytic asymptotic expressions for the free energy at high temperature are obtained and found in a very good agreement with the results of numerical computations.

description: We have used the Herschel-HIFI instrument to observe interstellar nitrogen hydrides along the sight-lines towards W49N and G10.6-0.4 in order to elucidate the production pathways leading to nitrogen-bearing species in diffuse gas. All detections show absorption by foreground material over a wide range of velocities, as well as absorption associated directly with the hot-core source itself. As in the previously published observations towards G10.6-0.4, the NH, NH2 and NH3 spectra towards W49N show strikingly similar and non-saturated absorption features. We decompose the absorption of the foreground material towards W49N into different velocity components in order to investigate whether the relative abundances vary among the velocity components, and, in addition, we re-analyse the absorption lines towards G10.6-0.4 in the same manner. Abundances, with respect to molecular hydrogen, in each velocity component are estimated using CH. The analysis points to a co-existence of the nitrogen hydrides in diffuse or translucent interstellar gas with a high molecular fraction. Towards both sources, we find that NH is always at least as abundant as both o-NH2 and o-NH3, in sharp contrast to previous results for dark clouds. We find relatively constant N(NH)/N(o-NH3) and N(o-NH2)/N(o-NH3) ratios with mean values of 3.2 and 1.9 towards W49N, and 5.4 and 2.2 towards G10.6-0.4, respectively. The mean abundance of o-NH3 is ~2x10^-9 towards both sources. The nitrogen hydrides also show linear correlations with CN and HNC towards both sources, and looser correlations with CH. The upper limits on the NH+ abundance indicate column densities < 2 - 14 % of N(NH). Surprisingly low values of the ammonia ortho-to-para ratio are found in both sources, ~0.5 - 0.7 +- 0.1. This result cannot be explained by current models as we had expected to find a value of unity or higher.

description: Mechanisms that stabilize quasicrystals are much discussed but not finally resolved. We confirm the random tiling hypothesis and its predictions in a fully atomistic decagonal quasicrystal model by calculating the free energy and the phason elastic constants over a wide range of temperatures. The Frenkel-Ladd method is applied for the phonon part and an approach of uncorrelated phason flips for the configurational part. When lowering the temperature, a phase transition to an approximant occurs. Close to the transition temperature one of the phason elastic constants becomes soft.

Future non-linear stability for reflection symmetric solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov system of Bianchi types II and VI$_0$

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: Using the methods developed for the Bianchi I case we have shown that a boostrap argument is also suitable to treat the future non-linear stability for reflection symmetric solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov system of Bianchi types II and VI$_0$. These solutions are asymptotic to the Collins-Stewart solution with dust and the Ellis-MacCallum solution respectively. We have thus generalized the results obtained by Rendall and Uggla in the case of locally rotationally symmetric Bianchi II spacetimes to the reflection symmetric case. However we needed to assume small data. For Bianchi VI$_0$ there is no analogous previous result.

description: We report on the discovery of the shortest period binary comprising a hot subdwarf star (CD-30 11223, GALEX J1411-3053) and a massive unseen companion. Photometric data from the All Sky Automated Survey show ellipsoidal variations of the hot subdwarf primary and spectroscopic series revealed an orbital period of 70.5 minutes. The large velocity amplitude suggests the presence of a massive white dwarf in the system (M_2/M_sun > 0.77) assuming a canonical mass for the hot subdwarf (0.48 M_sun), although a white dwarf mass as low as 0.75 M_sun is allowable by postulating a subdwarf mass as low as 0.44 M_sun. The amplitude of ellipsoidal variations and a high rotation velocity imposed a high-inclination to the system (i > 68 deg) and, possibly, observable secondary transits (i > 74 deg). At the lowest permissible inclination and assuming a subdwarf mass of ~0.48 M_sun, the total mass of the system reaches the Chandrasekhar mass limit at 1.35 M_sun and would exceed it for a subdwarf mass above 0.48 M_sun. The system should be considered, like its sibling KPD 1930+2752, a candidate progenitor for a Type Ia supernova. The system should become semi-detached and initiate mass transfer within ~30 Myr.

Mobilität und Dynamik im Zellkern
Creators: name: Cremer, Christoph
Publisher: name: Heidelberg University Publishing
Year: 2018

description: Vor rund 180 Jahren wurde der Zellkern entdeckt als eine abgegrenzte Einheit innerhalb der Zellen, aus denen alle Organismen dieser Erde aufgebaut sind. Gegen Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts wurde postuliert, dass der Kern der Sitz der die Lebensvorgänge steuernden Erbinformation ist; vor rund 70 Jahren schließlich entschlüsselten James D. Watson und Francis Crick das Geheimnis der DNA-Doppelhelix. Viele Jahrzehnte hindurch erschien die im Zellkern lokalisierte DNA als ein „inertes Speichermedium“, einem linearen - von seltenen Mutationen abgesehen - unveränderlichen Programmcode entsprechend. Dieses Bild hat sich in den letzten Jahrzehnten gründlich gewandelt. Heute wird immer deutlicher, dass es sich bei dem Zellkerngenom um eine ungeheuer komplexe und hoch dynamische Organisation handelt, dessen raum-zeitliche Struktur von fundamentaler Bedeutung für die vielfältigen Aufgaben der Genregulation ist.

description: Intelligente Assistenzsysteme können einen wichtigen Beitrag dazu leisten, die Lebensqualität von Menschen im Alter zu erhalten bzw. zu steigern. Insbesondere vor dem Hintergrund der demographischen Entwicklung ist es notwendig, geeingnete technische Assistenzsysteme auch für die Gruppe der älteren und alten Menschen zu entwicklen und nutzbar zu machen. Einen Schwerpunkt bilden dabei Mobilitätsassistenzroboter, die die Mobilität von älteren und alten Menschen wiederherstellen oder zumindest ihren Verlust verlangsamen können. Assistenzroboter, die auf die speziellen Bedürfnisse der älteren Bevölkerung zugeschnitten sind, befinden sich derzeit noch in der Forschungs- bzw. Prototypphase. Dieser Beitrag beschreibt die Anforderungen an und Möglichkeiten von Mobilitätsassistenzrobotern und stellt den aktuellen Forschungsstand dar. Insbesondere zeigen wir zwei aktuelle, im Rahmen des EU-Projektes MOBOT unter unserer Beteiligung entwickelte Prototypen. Außerdem beschreiben wir die in Heidelberg verwendete Methodik zur Entwicklung von Mobilitätsassistenzrobotern auf der Basis von modell-basierter Optimierung.

description: A central component of the ALICE Upgrade will be a completely new Inner Tracking System (ITS). The performance of the new ITS will be a significant improvement over that of the present ITS, in particular in the areas of material budget, granularity, a reduced radial distance from the first layer to the beam and rate capability. This will enable many key measurements of the properties of the quark-gluon plasma to be performed, in particular with rare probes such as low momentum charm and beauty mesons and baryons.

description: Background: The reduced, level-independent, Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer Hamiltonian is exactly diagonalizable by means of a Bethe Ansatz wavefunction, provided the free variables in the Ansatz are the solutions of the set of Richardson-Gaudin equations. On the one side, the Bethe Ansatz is a simple product state of generalised pair operators. On the other hand, the Richardson-Gaudin equations are strongly coupled in a non-linear way, making them prone to singularities. Unfortunately, it is non-trivial to give a clear physical interpretation to the Richardson-Gaudin variables because no physical operator is directly related to the individual variables. Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to shed more light on the critical behavior of the Richardson-Gaudin equations, and how this is related to the product wave structure of the Bethe Ansatz. Method: A pseudo-deformation of the quasi-spin algebra is introduced, leading towards a Heisenberg-Weyl algebra in the contraction limit of the deformation parameter. This enables an adiabatic connection of the exact Bethe Ansatz eigenstates with pure bosonic multiphonon states. The physical interpretation of this approach is an adiabatic suppression of the Pauli exclusion principle. Results: The method is applied to a so-called "picket-fence" model for the BCS Hamiltonian, displaying a typical critical behavior in the Richardson-Gaudin variables. It was observed that the associated bosonic multiphonon states change collective nature at the critical interaction strengths of the Richardson-Gaudin equations. Conclusions: The Pauli exclusion principle is the main responsible for the critical behavior of the Richardson-Gaudin equations, which can be suppressed by means of a pseudo deformation of the quasispin algebra.

description: We demonstrate generation of high-purity photon pairs at 1560 nm in a single spatial mode from a periodically-poled KTiOPO_4 (PPKTP) waveguide. With nearly lossless spectral filtering, the PPKTP waveguide source shows approximately 80 % single-mode fiber coupling efficiency and is well suited for high-dimensional time-energy entanglement-based quantum key distribution. Using high-count-rate self-differencing InGaAs single-photon avalanche photodiodes configured with either square or sinusoidal gating, we achieve > 1 Mbit/s raw key generation with 3 bits-per-photon encoding, and, to the best of our knowledge, the highest reported Franson quantum-interference visibility of 98.2 % without subtraction of accidental coincidences.

title: Service evaluation: Factors associated with missed or delayed diagnosis of major trauma in older people at a UK level 1 trauma centre
Creators: name: Mcpherson, Melinda
Publisher: name: Oxford Brookes University
Year: 2020

description: Diagnosis of major trauma in the older person is increasingly being recognised as clinically challenging when compared to that of the younger patient. Recent reports state that older patients sustaining major trauma are commonly under-recognised and are subsequently not receiving gold standard major trauma care. This paper reports a service evaluation of major trauma (ISS >15) care in patients >65 years presenting to the emergency department (ED) at a UK major trauma centre (MTC). Multiple logistic regression suggests that there are modifiable process factors that have a statistically significant association with missed or delayed diagnosis of major trauma. Lack of trauma team activation, CT imaging and assessment in pitstop vs the resuscitation room were associated with missed or delayed diagnosis of major trauma. These findings suggest that service improvement initiatives should be aimed at the early stages of the patient journey to improve missed or delayed diagnoses of major trauma in this patient group.

description: The momentum and density dependence of mean fields in symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter are analysed using the simple density dependent finite range effective interaction containing a single Gaussian term alongwith the zero-range terms. Within the formalism developed, it is possible to reproduce the various diverging predictions on the momentum and density dependence of isovector part of the mean field in asymmetric matter. The finite nucleus calculation is formulated for the simple Gaussian interaction in the framework of quasilocal density functional theory. The prediction of energies and charge radii of the interaction for the spherical nuclei compares well with the results of other effective theories.

title: Biostratigraphy of the Bilk Limestone (Permian), Northwestern Nevada
Creators: name: Thomas, Erich
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 1972

description:
The Bilk Limestone (new manuscript name) described in this report is a carbonate sequence located in the Bilk Creek Mountains at the southernmost end of the Kings River Range (fig. 1), about 30 miles south of the town Denio in north-central Humboldt County, Nevada. This study investigates the biostratigraphy and general paleoecology of about 2900 feet of limestone of early to middle Permian (middle Wolfcampian to middle Leonardian) age. The limestone is interbedded with nodular chert and is considerably altered by faulting and fracturing with associated epigenetic dolomitization. The fossil content is varied, and in this report stress is placed on fusulinid identification and their use as age indicators. They, as well as the carbonate patrology, yield important information for studying the paleoenvironment. The fossil content and lithology are notably distinct from any previously described carbonate of similar age in other areas.
title: Net Shore-Drift of Mason County, Washington
Creators: name: Blankenship, Dana G.
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 1983

description:
Winds from various directions cause waves which transport sediment along the shore. Over a relatively long time interval, sediment is moved in one predominant direction, which is the direction of net shore-drift. Variations in shoreline orientation cause shore drift to occur in discrete, essentially independent, drift cells.

By the specific identification of a number of established geomorphic and sedimentological shore drift indicators, drift cell boundaries can be delineated and the directions of net shore-drift determined. These indicators include changes in bluff morphology, beach width and slope, sediment-size gradation, identifiable sediment, deposition and/or erosion at shore drift obstructions, direction of spit growth and stream diversions, and nearshore bar orientation. Using these shore drift indicators, 136 drift cells have been mapped and described for the Mason County portions of Hood Canal and southern Puget Sound.

Net shore-drift along most of the Mason County shore is generally northward, which reflects the influence of more frequent and stronger winds from southerly directions. Areas of southward net shore-drift occur where fetch from the south is limited. Shore drift in insignificant along parts of the shore where fetch is limited in all directions, where wave energy is diminished by shallow water or man-made barriers, or where cliffs or bluffs extend to deep water.
