description: Objective: Hypertension is a common cardiovascular risk factor within the Iranian population, and this may be improved through changes in lifestyle. We aimed at improving hypertension outcomes and health literacy skills among hypertensive patients through communication skills training targeting health providers. Methods: A randomized controlled trial method was used to enroll 35 health providers and 240 hypertensive patients attending community-based healthcare practices in the Mashhad, Iran. We evaluated the effects of a communication skills intervention for primary care providers compared to usual care controls, on the hypertension outcomes, patient medication adherence, and self-efficacy, assessed at baseline and post-intervention. Bivariate analysis and the regression model were used to assess whether the health provider training improved outcomes. Results: Majority of participating patients were female (77.3%), less than high school education (80.3%), married (82.3%), and low income (82.3%), with mean age of 37 years. Following the educational intervention, there was a significant improvement (p Conclusions: The brief communication skills training for health care providers appear to be an efficient way to improve patient–provider communication skills and hypertension outcome among patients with uncontrolled BP.

description: Background: Previous studies have demonstrated that student ratings of a teachers’ performance do not incentivize clinical teachers to reflect critically and generate plans to improve their teaching. Peer group reflection might offer a solution in mediating this change. Aim: To investigate: (a) to which extent clinical teachers perceive self-evaluation, student ratings and peer group reflection effective; and (b) whether additional peer group reflection fosters critical reflection and the translation of feedback into concrete plans of action. Method: We conducted a quasi-experiment, inviting two groups of 10 clinical teachers each (1) to complete a self-evaluation and (2) subsequently examine their student ratings. One group participated in (3) an additional peer group reflection meeting. All participants were finally requested to define plans for improvement and evaluate each activity’s effectiveness. Results: Participants perceived all three activities to be effective. Levels of reflection did not differ across the two groups. However, participation in peer group reflection did result in generating more concrete plans to change clinical teaching. Conclusions: Peer group reflection on student ratings shows promise as tool to assist clinical teachers in generating plans for improvement. Future research should focus on whether teaching indeed improves with the introduction of peer group reflection.

description: Fully constrained bubble chamber data on the pp -> pi+ pn and pp -> pi+ d reactions are used to investigate the ratio of the counting rates for the two processes at low pn excitation energies. Whereas the ratio is in tolerable agreement with that found in a high resolution spectrometer experiment, the angular distribution in the final pn rest frame shows that the deviation from the predictions of final state interaction theory must originate primarily from higher partial waves in the pn system. These considerations might also be significant for the determination of the S-wave Lambda:p scattering length from data on the pp -> K+ Lambda p reaction.

description: An infinite family of exact solutions of the electrovacuum Einstein-Maxwell equations is presented. The family is static, axially symmetric and describe thin disks composed by electrically polarized material in a conformastatic spacetime. The form of the conformastatic metric allows us to write down the metric functions and the electromagnetic potentials in terms of a solution of the Laplace equation. We find a general expression for the surface energy density of the disk, the pressure, the polarization vector, the electromagnetic fields and the velocity rotation for circular orbits. As an example, we present the first model of the family and show the behavior of the different physical variables.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.By-catches of haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) below legal size (44 cm total length) in the seasonal pelagic longline fisheries for haddock off the coast of Finnmark, northern Norway, are often high. The small fish are torn off the hook at the vessel side by means of a crucifier or a gaff and returned to the sea. It is generally thought that most of the discarded haddock die. An investigation to quantify this mortality was done in the season for this fishery in 1997. The undersized haddock that were torn off the longline hook were recaptured by gently catching them in a dip net as they reached the sea surface. Survival of haddock torn off by means of crucifier alone was compared to haddock torn of the hook by means of a gaff. The fish were transferred in tanks onboard a vessel to holding pens made of small meshed knotless netting floating at the surface. They were visually monitored for 7-11 days. The control group consisted of haddock fished with clean hooks without barbs and gently released by hand. At the end of the observation period the live and dead fish were examined for external damage. The experiment showed a total mortality of 39% for fish that had been torn off by means of a crucifier, and 53% mortality of fish released by means of a gaff. The mortality of the control group was 9%. The injuries of the fish were also analysed.

description: We present a fast, simple method for automated data acquisition and visualization of sound directivity, made convenient and accessible via a smartphone app, "Polar Pattern Plotter." The app synchronizes measurements of sound volume with the phone's angular orientation obtained from either compass, gyroscope or accelerometer sensors and produces a graph and exportable data file. It is generalizable to various sound sources and receivers via the use of an input-jack-adaptor to supplant the smartphone's (omnidirectional) microphone. Results provide both a visual and quantitative representation of sound fields and device responses, adequate for introductory physics experiments.

description: This paper concerns an investigation of the spin wave excitations in magnetic nanoparticles. We provide a detailed derivation of the theoretical method for the determination of the normal modes of confined magnetic systems based on a discrete lattice of magnetic moments. The method is based on the damping-free Landau-Lifshitz equation and general enough to be utilized for the magnetic system of any dimensionality, magnetic structure, shape, and size. As an example we explore the influence of the competition between exchange and dipolar interactions on the spectrum of normal modes as well as on the stability of the vortex state in two-dimensional nanorings. We show the lowest-frequency mode to be indicative of the dipolar-to-exchange iterations ratio. We also study behavior of the fundamental mode and present the influence of both, the discreteness of the lattice and the dipolar-to-exchange iterations ratio, on its hybridization with azimuthal modes. We complete the paper with a selective review of the spin wave excitations in circular dots to compare with the results obtained for the rings.

description: We report the theoretical investigation of the suppression of magnetic systematic effects in HfF$^+$ cation for the experiment to search for the electron electric dipole moment. The g-factors for $J = 1$, $F=3/2$, $|M_F|=3/2$ hyperfine levels of the $^3Δ_1$ state are calculated as functions of the external electric field. The lowest value for the difference between the g-factors of $Ω$-doublet levels, $Δg = 3 \times 10^{-6}$, is attained at the electric field 7 V/cm. The body-fixed g-factor, $G_{\parallel}$, was obtained both within the electronic structure calculations and with our fit of the experimental data from [H. Loh, K. C. Cossel, M. C. Grau, K.-K. Ni, E. R. Meyer, J. L. Bohn, J. Ye, and E. A. Cornell, Science {\bf 342}, 1220 (2013)]. For the electronic structure calculations we used a combined scheme to perform correlation calculations of HfF$^+$ which includes both the direct 4-component all-electron and generalized relativistic effective core potential approaches. The electron correlation effects were treated using the coupled cluster methods. The calculated value $G_{\parallel}=0.0115$ agrees very well with the $G_{\parallel}=0.0118$ obtained in the our fitting procedure. The calculated value $D_{\parallel}=-1.53$ a.u. of the molecule frame dipole moment (with the origin in the center of mass) is in agreement with the experimental value $D_{\parallel}=-1.54(1)$ a.u.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Mortalities and injuries of the gadoids haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus L.), cod (Gadus morhua L.) and saithe (Pollachius virens L.) were studied after codend and grid escapement in two full scale trials in 2000 and 2001 in the Barents Sea. The escaped fish were sampled using small meshed cages. Trawl caught controls were sampled by removing the cod end and attaching the cage directly to the cod end extension. In the 2001 trial, control fish were sampled in fish traps in addition. Acoustic closing and releasing devices were used to time the sampling. Survival rates of cod and saithe escaping through codend and sorting grid were 100%. Mortality of haddock were 26.2 to 50.4% (codend escapees), 1.6 to 20% (grid escapees), 4.1 to 26.5% (trawl caught controls) and 0% (trap caught controls). The haddock mortality and injuries decreased with increasing fish length in all groups, with a mortality peek of the mesh escapees with girth approximately the mesh size circumference. Cod and saithe had significantly less skin and fin injuries than haddock, and in general, frequency of skin injuries increased towards the tail. Grid escaped gadoids had significantly less skin and fin damages than the mesh and control groups.

description: Heterogeneous gas and solid catalyst reactions occur at the atomic level, and understanding and controlling complex catalytic reactions at this level is crucial for the development of improved processes and materials. There are postulations that single atoms and very small clusters can act as primary active sites in chemical reactions. Early applications of our novel aberration corrected (AC) environmental scanning transmission electron microscope (ESTEM) with single atom resolution are described. This instrument combines, for the first time, controlled operating temperatures and a continuous gas environment around the sample with full AC STEM capabilities for real-time in-situ analysis and visualization of single atoms and clusters in nano particle catalysis. ESTEM imaging and analysis in controlled gas and temperature environments can provide unique insights into catalytic reaction pathways that may involve metastable intermediate states. Benefits include new knowledge and more environmentally friendly technological processes for health care and renewable energy as well as improved or replacement mainstream technologies in the chemical and energy industries.

description: Today there are roughly 41 million people in the U.S. who are older than 65 years of age. By 2030 it is estimated that number will rise to 72 million people. With this dramatic increase in our aging population it is necessary to explore options such as multigenerational living as an approach to maintain this generation’s inclusion in society rather than create isolation. This thesis explores the relationship between the nuclear family and the changing of what we consider the nuclear family in the United States. Through mixed-use developments, different building typologies, and several residential sizes, this research will reshape ideas of senior living, future generations, and the community while in an intergenerational site. Connection to the surrounding community, nature, and active lifestyles under a dwelling fall under the pretense of living well no matter what age. The result of choosing an intergenerational shared site and having the option of living in a residence of multiple generations is a life of better social interaction, activity, and happiness.

description: This thesis is about food, about how to replenish an abundance of good food, of availability and access in the inner city. Baltimore’s Westside neighborhood in downtown has been plagued by vacancy and dereliction for more than half a century. Public markets have long been cultural and social hubs of cities, yet amidst this backdrop, Lexington Market—Baltimore’s oldest public market—sits out of date and in desperate need of a new vision. Through a redesign of the market and the surrounding blocks to better connect this node to the city, a vibrant food-centric community can grow again. By expanding upon traditional market typologies to include the entire food cycle, the new market effectively responds to the needs of the 21st century. Food is grown, sold, cooked, and eaten on site, sparking cyclical nutrient and energy loops. As urban populations rise and agricultural land wanes, it is more important than ever to secure arable land within cities, vertically. Urban food production reconnects people with the food they eat, provides local produce with minimal transportation, and can be integrated into the public market. This thesis both revives a struggling piece of public infrastructure and demonstrates the efficacy of bringing super-productive farming into the city.

description: Mastitis remains the most costly infectious disease affecting dairy cattle. Bacterial populations in materials used as bedding in stalls for lactating cows has been correlated with teat-end exposure to mastitis pathogens and rates of clinical mastitis. Various bedding materials have different inherent ability to promote mastitis pathogen growth. In Atlantic Canada, access to quality bedding materials is a challenge. Milk 2020, a research agency of the New Brunswick dairy industry, sponsored this project to measure the growth patterns of mastitis-associated bacteria in different bedding materials under field conditions.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Nephrops norvegicus is an important target species in demersal fisheries of the North Sea. Data on the composition of caught and discarded fish and Nephrops from the English northeast coast Nephrops fishery were collected over one season from September 2001 to April 2002 on board commercial trawlers (74 trawls). Estimated mean catch and discard weights per vessel per day were 1,429 kg and 622 kg respectively. Whiting accounted for 74% of the discards by weight, and 87% of the whiting caught were subsequently discarded. The discard rate for whiting remained high despite the introduction of technical measures designed to reduce discards since a previous study. Less than 5% of the Nephrops in the catch were discarded, a figure lower than previous estimates. This is probably owing to an increased market demand for smaller-sized Nephrops. There was an estimated 9,876 t of fish and Nephrops caught by vessels working on this fishery, of which 4,424 t were discarded, equating to a discard rate of 45%

description: Two experiments on the use of homeopathic remedies for the treatment of cows with serous and catarrhal mastitis were carried out on two farms in the Moscow region, Russia. Mastitis was caused mainly by improper milking machine function because most of the equipment used in the observation period was worn-out. During the summer, cows were fetched to pasture, which increased the incidence of traumatic mastitis. On both farms, homeopathic remedies were used that are marketed by the German company Biologische Heilmittel Heel GmbH.

description: Adequate colostrum feeding is the most important management factor determining calf health and survival. Colostrum not only provides immunoglobulins, but it is also an important source of nutrients and nonspecific immune factors, including maternal leukocytes and cytokine proteins, all of which protect the newborn calf against infectious diseases early in life. Considering the potential role of these non-immunoglobulin factors, our hypothesis was that dairy calves fed fresh colostrum from their dams would perform better than those fed colostrum from cows other than their dams that had been stored cold and had a preservative added. The objective was to assess performance (growth and survival) of calves fed fresh colostrum from their dams, compared with that of calves fed colostrum from cows other than their dams that had been treated with a potassium sorbate preservative and stored refrigerated (up to 48 hours) or frozen.

description: Exotic nuclei, particularly those near the driplines, are at the core of one of the fundamental questions driving nuclear structure and astrophysics today: what are the limits of nuclear binding? Exotic nuclei play a critical role in both informing theoretical models as well as in our understanding of the origin of the heavy elements. Our purpose is to refine existing mass models through the training of an artificial neural network that will mitigate the large model discrepancies far away from stability. The basic paradigm of our two-pronged approach is an existing mass model that captures as much as possible of the underlying physics followed by the implementation of a Bayesian Neural Network (BNN) refinement to account for the missing physics. Bayesian inference is employed to determine the parameters of the neural network so that model predictions may be accompanied by theoretical uncertainties. Despite the undeniable quality of the mass models adopted in this work, we observe a significant improvement (of about 40%) after the BNN refinement is implemented. Indeed, in the specific case of the Duflo-Zuker mass formula, we find that the rms deviation relative to experiment is reduced from rms =0.503MeV to rms=0.286 MeV. These newly refined mass tables are used to map the neutron drip lines (or rather "drip bands") and to study a few critical r-process nuclei. The BNN approach is highly successful in refining the predictions of existing mass models. In particular, the large discrepancy displayed by the original "bare" models in regions where experimental data is unavailable is considerably quenched after the BNN refinement. This lends credence to our approach and has motivated us to publish refined mass tables that we trust will be helpful for future astrophysical applications.

description: We compare the optical absorption of extended systems using the density-density and current-current linear response functions calculated within many-body perturbation theory. The two approaches are formally equivalent for a finite momentum $\mathbf{q}$ of the external perturbation. At $\mathbf{q}=\mathbf{0}$, however, the equivalence is maintained only if a small $q$ expansion of the density-density response function is used. Moreover, in practical calculations this equivalence can be lost if one naively extends the strategies usually employed in the density-based approach to the current-based approach. Specifically we discuss the use of a smearing parameter or of the quasiparticle lifetimes to describe the finite width of the spectral peaks and the inclusion of electron-hole interaction. In those instances we show that the incorrect definition of the velocity operator and the violation of the conductivity sum rule introduce unphysical features in the optical absorption spectra of three paradigmatic systems: silicon (semiconductor), copper (metal) and lithium fluoride (insulator). We then demonstrate how to correctly introduce lifetime effects and electron-hole interactions within the current-based approach.

description: Lameness in the dairy industry has been identified as a disease with both detrimental economical and animal welfare implications. Digital dermatitis (DD) is a common cause oflameness in the dairy industry affecting 90% of free stall herds, and approximately 20% of cows within an affected herd. Common control strategies include the use foot baths with various chemical products including formalin, copper sulfate, antibiotics or commercially available products. Unfortunately, there is very little evidence in the literature supporting the use of these products. Evidence exists to support the use of formalin, copper sulfate, and antibiotics but few studies have been done to determine the efficacy of other commercially available products. The objective of this study was to evaluate the preventative and curative properties of two experimental products in comparison to formalin.

description: Studies of magnetization dynamics have incessantly facilitated the discovery of fundamentally novel physical phenomena, making steady headway in the development of magnetic and spintronics devices. The dynamics can be induced and detected electrically, offering new functionalities in advanced electronics at the nanoscale. However, its scattering mechanism is still disputed. Understanding the mechanism in thin films is especially important, because most spintronics devices are made from stacks of multilayers with nanometer thickness. The stacks are known to possess interfacial magnetic anisotropy, a central property for applications, whose influence on the dynamics remains unknown. Here, we investigate the impact of interfacial anisotropy by adopting CoFeB/MgO as a model system. Through systematic and complementary measurements of ferromagnetic resonance (FMR), on a series of thin films, we identify narrower FMR linewidths at higher temperatures. We explicitly rule out the temperature dependence of intrinsic damping as a possible cause, and it is also not expected from existing extrinsic scattering mechanisms for ferromagnets. We ascribe this observation to motional narrowing, an old concept so far neglected in the analyses of FMR spectra. The effect is confirmed to originate from interfacial anisotropy, impacting the practical technology of spin-based nanodevices up to room temperature.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Jens Eggvin (1899-1989) was employed at the Institute of Marine Research (IMR) in Bergen as head of its physical oceanographic activities in 1933. He followed a Norwegian tradition in relating the physical conditions of the ocean with fisheries. In 1935 he established several fixed hydrographic stations along the Norwegian coast and installed thermographs aboard several regular coastal steamers. In doing so, the entire 2700 km Norwegian of coast was covered by regular observations of the temperature in the surface layer. Later this program was extended to include samples for salinity determination at fixed locations along the coast and also to include a number of shipping routes across the North Sea.. The system of the fixed hydrographic stations were conducted by local observers, usually fishermen, but trained by IMR. This Norwegian Coastal Observing System is still in operation today. Eggvin was also a pioneer in oceanographic forecasting. An excellent demonstration of the advantage of the new observation system was described in his doctoral thesis The movement of a cold water front from 1940. He was able to follow an outbreak of cold water from the Skagerrak and its propagation along the southern Norwegian coast. This work was the basis for later forecasts on cold-water outbreaks and the transporting of harmful algae, both of great importance especially for the fish farmers. It was early known that the cod in the Lofoten area preferred to spawn in the transition layer between the cold coastal water and the warmer water of Atlantic origin below. The temperature of the transition layer was between 4o and 6o C and the depth of this layer showed great inter-annual variations. These variations influenced fisheries in several ways. Eggvin submitted in many years regular forecasts for the depth of the transition layer before the start of the fisheries. At the ICES meeting in 1959 Eggvin strongly advocated for synoptic oceanography for the benefit of fisheries. We know that certain hydrographic situations influence the fisheries in various ways. If we can predict such special hydrographic situations, we can expect to be able to assist the fisheries with valuable information, knowing in advance that certain oceanographic conditions affect the fish in such and such a manner that we shall know how the fisheries will turn out Today, this term is called Operational Oceanography. On Eggvin initiative the first ICES pilot project on synoptic oceanography was carried out during the period January- March 1966 with Norway as the lead country

description: Using the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) self-consistent mean-field theory with the SkM* Skyrme energy-density functional, we study nuclear structure properties of even-even superheavy nuclei (SHN) of $Z=120$ isotopes and $N=184$ isotones. The shape of the nucleus along the lowest energy curve as a function of the quadrupole moment $Q_{20}$ makes a sudden transition from the oblate spheroids (biconcave discs) to the toroidal shapes, in the region of large oblate quadrupole moments.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: We provide the necessary framework for carrying out stochastic positive-P and gauge-P simulations of bosonic systems with long range interactions. In these approaches, the quantum evolution is sampled by trajectories in phase space, allowing calculation of correlations without truncation of the Hilbert space or other approximations to the quantum state. The main drawback is that the simulation time is limited by noise arising from interactions. We show that the long-range character of these interactions does not further increase the limitations of these methods, in contrast to the situation for alternatives such as the density matrix renormalisation group. Furthermore, stochastic gauge techniques can also successfully extend simulation times in the long-range-interaction case, by making using of parameters that affect the noise properties of trajectories, without affecting physical observables. We derive essential results that significantly aid the use of these methods: estimates of the available simulation time, optimized stochastic gauges, a general form of the characteristic stochastic variance and adaptations for very large systems. Testing the performance of particular drift and diffusion gauges for nonlocal interactions, we find that, for small to medium systems, drift gauges are beneficial, whereas for sufficiently large systems, it is optimal to use only a diffusion gauge. The methods are illustrated with direct numerical simulations of interaction quenches in extended Bose-Hubbard lattice systems and the excitation of Rydberg states in a Bose-Einstein condensate, also without the need for the typical frozen gas approximation. We demonstrate that gauges can indeed lengthen the useful simulation time.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Since the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, overfishing, loss of coastal habitats, coastal pollution, and loss of biodiversity continue to erode the sustainability of $10.6 trillion in goods and services generated by coastal ecosystems around the globe. In recognition of the problem, the Global Environment Facility (GEF) has been approached by developing countries for assistance in planning and implementing projects for assessing and managing resources and environments of Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs) in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and eastern Europe. Seventeen LME projects involving 126 countries have been approved or are in preparation for funding support by the GEF Council. The participating countries are putting in place an ecosystem-based, five-module methodology based on systematic assessments of LME productivity, fish and fisheries, pollution and ecosystem health, socioeconomics, and governance. The GEF Operational Strategy recommends that nations sharing an LME begin to address coastal and marine issues by jointly undertaking strategic processes for analyzing scientific information on transboundary concerns, their root causes, and setting priorities for local action accordingly. The national inter-ministerial committee established in each country to operationalize reforms and programs is particularly important to achieve practical integration of needed actions in different economic sectors. However, the GEF was designed to play a minor, catalytic role and new North-South partnerships in LME monitoring and assessment are needed to sustain the $200 million in GEF/LME project momentum that has been created
A physically motivated classification of stripped-envelope supernovae

description: The classification of stripped-envelope supernovae (SE-SNe) is revisited using modern data-sets. Spectra are analysed using an empirical method to "blindly" categorise SNe according to spectral feature strength and appearance. This method makes a clear distinction between SNe that are He-rich (IIb/Ib) and He-poor (Ic) and further analysis is performed on each subgroup. For He-rich SNe the presence of H becomes the focus. The strength, velocity, and ratio between absorption and emission of H$α$ is measured, along with additional analysis of He I lines, in order to categorise the SNe. The He-poor SNe are ordered according to the number of absorption features $N$ present in the spectra, which is a measure of the degree of line blending. The kinetic energy per unit mass $E_\mathrm{k}/M_\mathrm{ej}$ is strongly affected by mass at high velocity and such situations principally occur when the outer density profile of the ejecta is shallow, leading to the blending of lines. Using the results, the existing SE-SN taxonomic scheme is adapted. He-rich SNe are split into four groups, IIb, IIb(I), Ib(II), and Ib, which represent H-rich to H-poor SNe. The SNe Ic category of broad-lined Ic (Ic-BL) is abandoned in favour of quantifying the line blending via $\left$ before peak. To better reflect the physical parameters of the explosions, the velocity of Si II at peak and the half-luminosity decay time $t_{+1/2}$ are included to give SNe Ic a designation of Ic-$\left\left(v_\mathrm{p,SiII}/t_{+1/2}\right)$.
