description: We are experiencing a period of extreme intellectual effervescence in the area of cosmology. A huge volume of observational data in unprecedented quantity and quality and a more consistent theoretical framework propelled cosmology to an era of precision, turning the discipline into a cutting-edge area of contemporary science. Observations with type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia), showed that the expanding Universe is accelerating, an unexplained fact in the traditional decelerated model. Identifying the cause of this acceleration is the most fundamental problem in the area. As in the scientific renaissance, the solution will guide the course of the discipline in the near future and the possible answers (whether dark energy, some extension of general relativity or a still unknown mechanism) should also leverage the development of physics. In this context, without giving up a pedagogical approach, we present an overview of both the main theoretical results and the most significant observational discoveries of cosmology in the last 100 years. The saga of cosmology will be presented in a trilogy. In this article (Part I), based on the articles by Einstein, de Sitter, Friedmann, Lemaître and Hubble, we will describe the period between the origins of cosmology and the discovery of Universal expansion (1929). In Part II, we will see the period from 1930 to 1997, closing with the old standard decelerated model. The Part III will be entirely devoted to the accelerated model of the universe, the cosmic paradigm of the XXI century.

description: In this paper we implement for the first time the use of a πNΔ(1232) vertex interaction containing both first and second order derivative terms, as required by renormalization considerations. As as was previously shown both interactions present formal problems, but can be implemented pertubatively. We put an end point to the discussion of which type of interaction is the apropriate one: both the usual pi-derivative and the "spin 3/2" gauge invariant that include also a derivative in the Δ field should be included in amplitude calculations. We show that when working within a tree level approach the description of total πNΔ scattering in the different channels is improved.
A cloud model of active galactic nuclei: the iron K-alpha line diagnostics

description: The origin and the profile of the iron K-alpha line from active galactic nuclei is being studied. The model with a quasi-spherical distribution of clouds around a compact galactic nucleus is explored in which the intrinsic spectral feature around 6-7 keV is substantially affected by Comptonization of primary X-rays. The predicted spectral profiles are influenced mainly by motion of the clouds in strong gravitational field of the centre, and by orientation of the source with respect to the observer. The case of the Seyfert galaxy MCG-6-30-15 is examined in more detail and free parameters of the model are determined. A robust result is obtained: acceptable fits to the observed profile correspond to the spherical distribution of the clouds with strong self-obscuration effects and with rather high value of ionization parameter. This is a different situation from that considered in the model of a cold illuminated disc. Nevertheless, geometrically flat (disc-type) configurations are not rejected.

description: The article presents a review of the literature on the chemical composition of smoke generated from a standard cigarette and the aerosol generated after heating tobacco and chemical compounds formed in the aerosol of electronic cigarettes. The literature review was carried out on the PubMed online bibliographic database, Google search engine, Google Scholar based on science articles published in recent 20 years. The bibliographic analysis shows that: replacing smoking in the traditional way by heating tobacco modifies significantly the content of chemical substances found in aerosol, the substances found in aerosols generated by e-cigarettes have proven toxic effects, e.g. pro-inflammatory effect on lung epithelial cells (e.g. crotonaldehyde) or a mutagenic effect (e.g. NNK), using e-cigarette aerosol does not rule out a health risk for people, which is not fully recognized at present. Replacing smoking in the traditional way by heating tobacco modifies significantly the content of chemical substances found in aerosol. Using e-cigarette aerosol does not rule out a health risk for people, because the substances found in aerosols generated by e-cigarettes have proven toxic effects.

description: The total solar fluxes at 1, 2, 3.75, and 9.4 GHz were observed continuously from 1957 to 1994 at Toyokawa, and from 1994 until now at Nobeyama, Japan with the current Nobeyama Radio Polarimeters. We examined the multi-frequency and long-term datasets, and found that not only the microwave solar flux but also its monthly standard deviation well indicates the long-term variation of solar activity. Furthermore, we found that the microwave spectra at the solar minima of Cycle 20~24 agree with each other. These results show that the average atmospheric structure above the upper chromosphere in the quiet Sun has not varied for half a century, and suggest that the energy input for atmospheric heating from the sub-photosphere to the corona has not changed in the quiet Sun despite significantly differing strengths of magnetic activity in the last five solar cycles.

description: Architecture, as it exists today, is deeply rooted in perceptions that were established during the Renaissance, which credited the architect as the sole author of creative thinking processes and the resultant design ideas. Since then, the architectural profession has desired to develop new and innovative ways of building, often without being bound by traditions, the environment, or any other constraints and limitations. This approach has frequently failed to address the needs and concerns of many. As a result, architects have not been successful in imparting significant social change that is valuable to large portions of the population. In contrast, however, many other industries have adopted shared design and production practices for the benefit of the masses, warranting further exploration into how architectural practice might evolve its current modes of operation. Wood as a building material has many beneficial characteristics–specifically its widespread availability, versatility, and ease of workability–which make it particularly suitable for investigating shared authorship and collective production methodologies. As an alternative to steel and concrete for mid-rise and high- rise buildings, mass timber construction, in particular, has experienced significant advancements in recent years, resulting in the development of entirely new building processes that rely on innovative engineered wood products, digital manufacturing, and prefabrication techniques. However, this has frequently led to expensive one-off proprietary solutions that are limited in their application. To foster innovation and disseminate knowledge, an open source culture of designing and sharing is necessary. To this end, this paper will present approaches for open source mass timber construction systems that can be applied to a wide range of scenarios and settings, with the aim of ultimately increasing the acceptance and market share of wood construction for the benefit of society at large.

A special attention is paid to the examination on the nonperturbative quantum dynamics: The phenomenon of dynamical-symmetry-breaking/mass-generation on the deformed superspace is investigated. The model Lagrangian and the method of SUSY auxiliary fields of composites are examined in terms of component fields. We derive the effective action, examine it, and solve the gap equation for self-consistent mass parameters.

title: Lifting the Curtain on the Nation: The Theater and Nation-Building in El ideal de un calavera
Creators: name: Hanson, Cody
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2020

description: Alberto Blest Gana, in his 1863 novel El ideal de un calavera, organizes and presents crafted images of chilenidad that are so pervasive they assume intrinsic value and take precedence over the plot narrative. Blest Gana (1830-1920) is well known for his realistic accounts of Chilean celebrations, customs, and pastimes. He consistently integrates detailed expository accounts into his writing that emphasize Chile’s unique culture. In El ideal de un calavera, for example, rather than organize themselves in an orderly line at the entrance of the theater, Chileans form an apretura, a practice in which patrons jockey for preferential positions around the door in order to gain entrance ahead of others. The resulting chaos, filled with unique and varied expressions, movements, and actions, enrich this scene with what the narrator terms “ese sello peculiar de nacionalidad” (140). This opening image of the theater scene is captivating because it concentrates the Portilian notion of an organized and stable political system with a highly authoritarian and aggressive popular culture (Encina 445-453). Fernando Unzueta notes that costumbrista descriptions cultivate a “communal identity construction” by offering glimpses into the national way of life (145). These descriptions allow Blest Gana, and his readers, to explore a lettered conception of Chilean identity (Fuenzalida Grandón 200). Indeed, it is widely accepted that nineteenth-century Latin American literature is didactic in nature and is written with the purpose of promoting values, customs, and processes that cultivate nation-building (Anderson 25; Sommer 7).

description: Many states respond to deteriorating economic conditions in their inner cities and rural communities by establishing geographically targeted tax incentives. In this paper, we examine the impact of several of these Enterprise Zone (EZ) programs on local employment. The results show that the EZ programs do not have a significant impact on local employment. Program impact does not depend on the monetary amount of the incentives and or on specific features of program design. These conclusions are constant across two econometric approaches to controlling for the non-random placement of zones and stand up to a wide variety of sensitivity analyses.

description: In the asymptotic safety paradigm, a quantum field theory reaches a regime with quantum scale invariance in the ultraviolet, which is described by an interacting fixed point of the Renormalization Group. Compelling hints for the viability of asymptotic safety in quantum gravity exist, mainly obtained from applications of the functional Renormalization Group. The impact of asymptotically safe quantum fluctuations of gravity at and beyond the Planck scale could at the same time induce an ultraviolet completion for the Standard Model of particle physics with high predictive power.

description: The nucleon-nucleon potential is analysed using the 1/N_c expansion of QCD. The NN potential is shown to have an expansion in 1/N_c^2, and the strengths of the leading order central, spin-orbit, tensor, and quadratic spin-orbit forces (including isospin dependence) are determined. Comparison with a successful phenomenological potential (Nijmegen) shows that the large-N_c analysis explains many of the qualitative features observed in the nucleon-nucleon interaction. The 1/N_c expansion implies an effective Wigner supermultiplet symmetry for light nuclei. Results for baryons containing strange quarks are presented in an appendix.

description: We examine HMO participation and enrollment in the Medicare risk market for the years 1990 to 1995. We develop a profit-maximization model of HMO behavior, which explicitly considers potential linkages between an HMO’s production decision in the commercial enrollee market and its participation and production decisions in the Medicare risk market. Our results suggest that the AAPCC is a primary determinant of HMO participation, while the price of a supplemental Medicare insurance policy positively affects HMO Medicare enrollment. We also find empirical support for the existence of complementarities in the joint production of an HMO’s commercial and Medicare products.

description: The next generation of many-core enabled large-scale computing systems relies on thousands of billions of heterogeneous processing cores connected to form a single computing unit. In such large-scale computing environments, resource management is one of the most challenging, and complex issues for efficient resource sharing and utilization, particularly as we move toward Future ManyCore Systems (FMCS). This work proposes a novel resource management scheme for future peta-scale many-core-enabled computing systems, based on hybrid adaptive resource discovery, called ElCore. The proposed architecture contains a set of modules which will dynamically be instantiated on the nodes in the distributed system on demand. Our approach provides flexibility to allocate the required set of resources for various types of processes/applications. It can also be considered as a generic solution (with respect to the general requirements of large scale computing environments) which brings a set of interesting features (such as auto-scaling, multitenancy, multi-dimensional mapping, etc,.) to facilitate its easy adaptation to any distributed technology (such as SOA, Grid and HPC many-core). The achieved evaluation results assured the significant scalability and the high quality resource mapping of the proposed resource discovery and management over highly heterogeneous, hierarchical and dynamic computing environments with respect to several scalability and efficiency aspects while supporting flexible and complex queries with guaranteed discovery results accuracy. The simulation results prove that, using our approach, the mapping between processes and resources can be done with high level of accuracy which potentially leads to a significant enhancement in the overall system performance.

description: In magnetic nanostructures one usually uses a magnetic field to commute between two resistance (R) states. A less common but technologically more interesting alternative to achieve R-switching is to use an electrical current, preferably of low intensity. Such Current Induced Switching (CIS) was recently observed in thin magnetic tunnel junctions, and attributed to electromigration of atoms into/out of the insulator. Here we study the Current Induced Switching, electrical resistance, and magnetoresistance of thin MnIr/CoFe/AlO$_x$/CoFe tunnel junctions. The CIS effect at room temperature amounts to 6.9% R-change between the high and low states and is attributed to nanostructural rearrangements of metallic ions in the electrode/barrier interfaces. After switching to the low R-state some electro-migrated ions return to their initial sites through two different energy channels. A low (high) energy barrier of $\sim$0.13 eV ($\sim$0.85 eV) was estimated. Ionic electromigration then occurs through two microscopic processes associated with different types of ions sites/defects. Measurements under an external magnetic field showed an additional intermediate R-state due to the simultaneous conjugation of the MR (magnetic) and CIS (structural) effects.

description: The SWIFT (Short-Wait Integrated Flight Travel) System represents an initiative by Carnegie Mellon University’s H. John Heinz III School of Public Policy and Management to design an airport security system that is both more secure and more efficient. With SWIFT, travelers who volunteer to submit to a security clearance by TSA and pass will receive a “smart card” containing personal and biometric information. SWIFT enrollees will be able to go through a security screening comparable to that which was used prior to September 11, 2001. By screening SWIFT enrollees prior to their arrival at an airport, TSA can focus its resources on more thorough screening of not-cleared individuals. Our research focused on estimating the demand for SWIFT enrollment, design of a reasonable system that included biometric screening of all those carrying a SWIFT card, review of current technological opportunities for screening SWIFT passengers, initial design of a national SWIFT network, identifying processing enhancements of the current system, analyzing costs and benefits of the various improvements through the use of simulation modeling, and designing an initial test implementation of the SWIFT System at the Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT). The results of this research hold promise for creating an airport security system that is markedly more secure and more efficient than the current one.

description: Recent prolonged droughts have increased water awareness worldwide, yet limited progress has been made to expand integrated building solutions. This paper investigates the critical tools needed by architectural practice and academia to support water efficient pedagogy and design. A water auditing protocol was developed, tested, and standardized during an undergraduate/graduate architecture water efficiency course over 2017-19. This paper presents the case study implementation of this tool for water use reduction in a commercial building in Tucson, Arizona. The paper ultimately evaluates the success of this new tool through four outcomes from the case study. First, a cutting-edge, service-learning pedagogical model was developed to teach water efficient design to architecture students. Second, the local water service provider was given a new tool for future commercial building owner compliance in the case of a Level 2 Drought declaration. Third, the water audit provided the building owner with cost- effective strategies to accomplish use reduction. Finally, the architectural professional community received a new tool for water efficient design and retrofit. The paper presents a tool for architecture students and professionals to expand integrated water efficient design for commercial buildings.

description: Recently striking multiple relations have been found between pure state 2 and 3-qubit entanglement and extremal black holes in string theory. Here we add further mathematical similarities which can be both useful in string and quantum information theory. In particular we show that finding the frozen values of the moduli in the calculation of the macroscopic entropy in the STU model, is related to finding the canonical form for a pure three-qubit entangled state defined by the dyonic charges. In this picture the extremization of the BPS mass with respect to moduli is connected to the problem of finding the optimal local distillation protocol of a GHZ state from an arbitrary pure three-qubit state. These results and a geometric classification of STU black holes BPS and non-BPS can be described in the elegant language of twistors. Finally an interesting connection between the black hole entropy and the average real entanglement of formation is established.

The excitation requirements of these transitions are too high to be satisfied in the outer envelope of the star, and the emission must originate within {solar}20 stellar radii, ie. the molecule must be forming close to the star. This conclusion is supported by a model for AGB stars in which molecules including HCN form in a shocked wind close to the stellar surface.

description: We analyze a detailed Nice model simulation of Kuiper Belt emplacement from Brasser & Morbidelli (2013), where Neptune undergoes a high eccentricity phase and migrates outward. In this work, which follows from Pike et al. (2017), we specifically focus on the details of structures within Neptune's mean motion resonances and in the high pericenter population of simulated trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs). We find several characteristics of these populations which should be observable in the distant Solar System in future large-scale TNO surveys as a diagnostic of whether or not this mode of Neptune migration occurred in the early Solar System. We find that the leading asymmetric libration islands of the $n$:1 resonances are generally much more populated than the trailing islands. We also find the non-resonant high-$q$ population of TNOs should have higher inclinations than the low-$q$ population due to the importance of Kozai cycling during their emplacement histories. Finally, high-$q$ TNOs should be present in roughly equal numbers on either side of distant mean-motion resonances. These predictions contrast with predictions from other Kuiper Belt emplacement simulations, and will be testable by upcoming surveys.

description: Nonequilibrium electronic transport through a molecular level weakly coupled to a single coherent phonon/vibration mode has been studied for superconducting leads. The Keldysh Green function formalism is used to compute the current for the entire bias voltage range. In the subgap regime, Multiple Andreev Reflection (MAR) processes accompanied by phonon emission cause rich structure near the onset of MAR channels, including an even-odd parity effect that can be interpreted in terms of an inelastic MAR ladder picture. Thereby we establish a connection between the Keldysh formalism and the Landauer scattering approach for inelastic MAR.

description: We present a first principles study of NMR and spin orbit effects in the unconventional superconductor Sr2RuO4. We have calculated the uniform magnetic susceptibility, which agrees rather well with the experiment in amplitude, but, as in an earlier model result we found the calculated hard axis to be z, opposite to the experiment. We have also calculated the Knight shifts and the NMR relaxation rates for all atoms, and again found an overall good agreement, but important deviations from the experiment in same particular characteristic, such as the Knight shift anisotropy. Our results suggest that correlations in Sr2RuO4 lead to underestimations of the orbital effects in density-functional based calculations. We also argue that the accepted ``experimental'' value for the relative contribution of orbital polarization in susceptibility, 10-15%, is also an underestimation. We discuss the puzzling invariance of the the O and Ru Knight shift across the superconducting transition for all directions of the applied field. We show that this fact cannot be explained by accidental cancellations or spin-flip scattering, as it happens in some elemental superconductors. We also point out that large contribution of the dipole and orbital hyperfine field into the Knight shifts in Sr2RuO4, combined with the possibility of an orbital-dependent superconductivity, calls for a revision of the standard theory of the Knight shift in the superconducting state.

description: We construct (anti)instanton solutions of a would-be q-deformed su(2) Yang-Mills theory on the quantum Euclidean space R_q^4 [the SO_q(4)-covariant noncommutative space] by reinterpreting the function algebra on the latter as a q-quaternion bialgebra. Since the (anti)selfduality equations are covariant under the quantum group of deformed rotations, translations and scale change, by applying the latter we can generate new solutions from the one centered at the origin and with unit size. We also construct multi-instanton solutions. As they depend on noncommuting parameters playing the roles of `sizes' and `coordinates of the centers' of the instantons, this indicates that the moduli space of a complete theory will be a noncommutative manifold. Similarly, gauge transformations should be allowed to depend on additional noncommutative parameters.

description: Recently a theory about the formation of over-densities of stars along tidal tails of globular clusters has been presented, this theory predicts the position and time of formation of such over-densities and was successfully tested with N-body simulations of globular clusters in a point mass galactic potential. In this work we present a comparison between this theory and our simulations using a dwarf galaxy orbiting two differently shaped dark matter halos to study the effects of a cored and a cuspy halo on the formation and evolution of tidal tails. We find no difference using a cuspy or a cored halo, however, we find an intriguing asymmetry between the leading and trailing arm of the tidal tails. The trailing arm grows faster than the leading arm. This asymmetry is seen in the distance to first over-density and its size as well. We establish a relation between the distance to the first over-density and the size of this over-density.

description: Background: Providers caring for adolescents and young adults with HIV (AYA-HIV) mostly base their adherence counseling during clinical encounters on clinical judgment and expectations of patients’ medication adherence. There is currently no data on provider predictions of viral suppression for AYA-HIV. We aimed to assess the accuracy of provider predictions of patients’ viral suppression status compared to viral load results. Methods: Providers caring for AYA-HIV were asked to predict the likelihood of viral suppression of patients before a clinical encounter and give reasons for their predictions. Provider predictions were compared to actual viral load measurements of patients. Patient data were abstracted from electronic health records. The final analysis included 9 providers, 28 patients, and 34 observations of paired provider predictions and viral load results. Results: Provider prediction accuracy of viral suppression was low (59%, Cohen's Kappa = 0.16). Provider predictions of lack of viral suppression were based on nonadherence to medications, new patient status, or structural vulnerabilities (e.g., unstable housing). Anticipated viral suppression was based on medication adherence, history of viral suppression, and the presence of family or other social forms of support. Conclusions: Providers have difficulty accurately predicting viral suppression among AYA-HIV and may base their counseling on incorrect assumptions. Rapid point-of-care viral load testing may provide opportunities to improve counseling provided during the clinical encounter.

description: Technical writing is a critical component of technical education. Many professors who teach environmental building systems, structures, or other technical courses realize the value of assigning technical reports, which require students to gather data, to analyze that data, and to draw conclusions in a cogent manner. Those of us who teach technical courses and read our students’ reports also know how poorly written those reports typically are. Gerald Grow argued in "The Writing Problems of Visual Thinkers" that architects think—and therefore write—differently than the general population. If Grow is right, should we not develop a unique pedagogy for teaching architects how to communicate through technical writing? And if so, which pedagogy is correct? In The Reflective Practitioner and Educating the Reflective Practitioner, Donald Schön investigated the way that architects and other professionals work through a problem using a process of testing potential solutions, what Schön called “knowing-in-action,” “reflection-in-action,” and “reflecting on reflection-in- action” (his term for meta-thinking). Because the writing process mirrors the design process in many ways, Schön’s ideas for educating the reflective practitioner should be appropriate for teaching architecture students to write more effectively, specifically when they are assigned technical reports. This paper is the first step in a planned investigation of applying Schön’s theory of the “reflective practitioner” to the discipline of technical writing. As a first step, this paper begins with a literature review that examines writing manuals created for architects and other design professionals, identifying the way those manuals apply techniques compatible with Schön’s theories. Next, this paper offers a brief review of writing programs at several architecture schools. Following that discussion, this paper introduces some of Donald Schön’s major concepts. Finally, this paper concludes with a next steps section that outlines a proposed, long-term research project built around the proposed concept of “writing-in-action.”
title: Microwell Based Competitive Enzyme Immunoassay for Quantifying Serum Triiodothyronine and Thyroxine Levels

description: A microwell based competitive enzyme immunoassay for determination of total thyroxine and triiodothyronine in human serum was developed with use of horseradish peroxidase conjugate. The assay, which can be performed in only 1.5 hours at room temperature, involves simultaneous incubation of T3- or T4- HRPO conjugate and serum sample in anti-T3 or anti-T4 gamma globulin fraction coated polystyrene microwells.

Isolation of anti-T3 and anti-T4 gamma globulin fractions were accomplished from whole antiserum by using DEAE-cellulose chromatograph. A carbodiimide coupling method was described to prepare the T4- and T3-HRPO conjugates. Binding of hormones to serum protein was minimised using 8-anilino-1-naphthalene sulfonic acid.

The detection limit of the T3 assay was 15.0 ng/dL and that of T4 was 0.8 ug/dL. Precision studies involving high and low levels of T3 and T4 were performed. Intra-assay coefficients of variation were 12.6% and 5.78% for T3 concentrations at 80.82 ng/dL and 207.9 ng/dL, and 8.51% and 11.1% for T4 concentrations at 14.4 ug/dL and 6.90 ug/dL, respectively. The inter-assay coefficients of variation of 15.3% and 5.91% were obtained for T3 concentrations at 85.87 ng/dL and 366.9 ng/dL, and 9.44% and 8.39% were obtained for T4 concentrations at 6.86 ug/dL and 15.66 ug/dL. Values for total T3 and total T4 so determined correlated well with those determined by radioimmunoassay with correlation coefficient of 0.976 and 0.971 respectively.
