description: Background: Little is known about the relationship between antibiotic use and asthma in the children with a higher risk of allergic sensitization. We examine the association between the use of specific therapeutic antibiotics in the first year of life and development of wheezing by 36 months among children with a higher risk of allergic sensitization. Methods: A multi-center prospective cohort study was conducted among children at high risk for allergic sensitization. A validated questionnaire was used to prospectively collect information on antibiotic use and potential risk factors for wheezing from parents or guardians of 606 children from three European countries at 6, 12, 24 and 36 months of age. Multivariate linear and logistic regression models were used to adjust for potential confounders and effect modifiers and to estimate the association of antibiotic use with the development of early childhood wheezing. Results: Of the antibiotics assessed, only macrolide use in the first year of life was associated with increasing risk for wheezing by 36 months, after adjusting for gender, socioeconomic status, breast feeding >6 months, tobacco smoke exposure, family history of asthma, and respiratory infection (RR = 1.09; 95% CI 1.05–1.13). To avoid a bias by indication, we analyzed children with and without respiratory infection separately. Similar associations were observed for macrolides use in children who had no respiratory infection. Conclusions: In European children with a familial risk for allergic sensitization, we found a positive association between macrolide use in the first year of life and wheezing until 36 months old which was independent of the effect of respiratory infection.

description: We use QCD sum rules to study mass spectra of $P$-wave charmed baryons of the $SU(3)$ flavor $\mathbf{6}_F$. We also use light-cone sum rules to study their $S$- and $D$-wave decays into ground-state charmed baryons together with light pseudoscalar and vector mesons. We work within the framework of heavy quark effective theory, and we also consider the mixing effect. Our results can explain many excited charmed baryons as a whole, including the $Σ_c(2800)^0$, $Ξ_c(2923)^0$, $Ξ_c(2939)^0$, $Ξ_{c}(2965)^{0}$, $Ω_c(3000)^0$, $Ω_c(3050)^0$, $Ω_c(3066)^0$, $Ω_c(3090)^0$, and $Ω_c(3119)^0$. Their masses, mass splittings within the same multiplets, and decay properties are extracted for future experimental searches.

description: A novel series of alloxan-derived 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles was synthesized in excellent yields under catalytic conditions using a click reaction strategy through 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. Their structures have been ascertained on the basis of spectroanalytical and elemental analysis data. Synthesis of hybrid compounds with varying substitutions in the triazole ring was achieved by reaction between alloxan-derived terminal alkyne and a pertinent azide derivative in the presence of clay-Cu(II) as the catalyst in methanolic medium. Also, comparative evaluation of various catalytic systems [viz., CuI, CuSO4, CuI-zeolite, K10Ti, and clay-Cu(II)] was investigated. Of these catalytic systems, clay-Cu(II) was observed to be the best. The catalyst was recyclable for several runs without showing significant loss in its activity. The good selectivity, cost-efficiency, short reaction time, milder reaction conditions, and simple workup procedure are the added salient features of this synthetic protocol.

description: Solid-state quantum emitters with manipulable spin-qubits are promising platforms for quantum communication applications. Although such light-matter interfaces could be realized in many systems only a few allow for light emission in the telecom bands necessary for long-distance quantum networks. Here, we propose and implement a new optically active solid-state spin-qubit based on a hole confined in a single InAs/GaAs quantum dot grown on an InGaAs metamorphic buffer layer emitting photons in the C-band. We lift the hole spin-degeneracy using an external magnetic field and demonstrate hole injection, initialization, read-out and complete coherent control using picosecond optical pulses. These results showcase a new solid-state spin-qubit platform compatible with preexisting optical fibre networks.

description: We report on a robust method to achieve strong coupling between a superconducting flux qubit and a high-quality quarter-wavelength coplanar waveguide resonator. We demonstrate the progression from the strong to ultrastrong coupling regime by varying the length of a shared inductive coupling element, ultimately achieving a qubit-resonator coupling strength of 655 MHz, $10\%$ of the resonator frequency. We derive an analytical expression for the coupling strength in terms of circuit parameters and also discuss the maximum achievable coupling within this framework. We experimentally characterize flux qubits coupled to superconducting resonators using one and two-tone spectroscopy methods, demonstrating excellent agreement with the proposed theoretical model.

description: In various applications in the field of control engineering the estimation of the state variables of dynamic systems in the presence of unknown inputs plays an important role. Existing methods require the so-called observer matching condition to be satisfied, rely on the boundedness of the state variables or exhibit an increased observer order of twice the plant order. In this article, a novel observer normal form for strongly observable linear time-invariant multivariable systems is proposed. In contrast to classical normal forms, the proposed approach also takes the unknown inputs into account. The proposed observer normal form allows for the straightforward construction of a higher-order sliding mode observer, which ensures global convergence of the estimation error within finite time even in the presence of unknown bounded inputs. Its application is not restricted to systems which satisfy the aforementioned limitations of already existing unknown input observers. The proposed approach can be exploited for the reconstruction of unknown inputs with bounded derivative and robust state-feedback control, which is shown by means of a tutorial example. Numerical simulations confirm the effectiveness of the presented work.

description: The lucid and provocative argument underlying J. M. Arthur’s "word map" can be summarised in a few sentences. Her claim is that the English language carries within it the image and idea of a particular kind of environment and landscape. That vision was transported to Australia with the language and acts as a screen between the colonists" eyes and the country they view. What the non-indigenous Australian sees, or rather, projects across the actual landscape when they write or speak about it in English, is the country that they althought or hoped would be there: almost anything but the country that is. In fact, to represent Arthur’s argument accurately, it is not simply the colonist’s "hope" or "dream" of a particular kind of country that is disappointed, but a hope carried within the language itself. Risking a form of pathetic fallacy, Arthur writes: “the language sees double; two landscapes, one present and one ‘remembered.’ The double vision results in expectation and disappointment. The words look for what is not there, for the other country that didn’t happen. Charles Sturt is not the only person who has, in belief and expectation if not in physical reality, towed a boat through the Australian landscape” (24).

description: Edited by John J. Joughin and Simon Malpas, The New Aestheticism collects 13 essays, each of which attempt to situate aesthetics at the intersection of literature, philosophy and politics. The editors’ introduction sets forth the overall program of the text with great clarity. The concept of ‘new aestheticism’ covers those attempts to consider the truth content of art while refusing to reduce the specificity of the artwork, that very specificity which prevents it from being subordinated to truth understood in its classical sense. The tension between the universality and the singularity of truth characterised throughout the volume is, for the most part, distinctively deconstructive. Joughin and Malpas admit as much when they refer to the “constitutive aporia of aesthetic theory” (12). The New Aestheticism is “necessarily plural, as any work that takes the aesthetic seriously must be” (17). It also attempts to take seriously the singularity that appears equiprimordially with plurality. At the same time, The New Aestheticism assumes the imbrication of the artwork within social, political, natural, ideological and other networks while refusing to allow these determinations to exhaust the meaning of the artwork. The aesthetic attitude is developed at the site of the tension between the structural determinations of the artwork and its singularity as a work of art.

description: J. M. Barrie’s Peter Pan (originally titled Peter Pan and Wendy) has a history as subtle and complex as any of the images and themes the work itself evokes. First staged as a pantomime on the stage of the Duke of York’s Theatre in London on December 27, 1904, the prose version was first published in 1911. Before that, aspects of the narrative can be found in Barrie’s earlier works, including The Little White Bird (1902). Now, to celebrate the centenary of Peter Pan, Yale UP has republished Andrew Birkin’s landmark biography of Barrie, a tale which unfolds through an impressive array of documentary detritus from Barrie’s relationship with the five boys of the Llewelyn Davies family, the boys generally agreed to be the inspiration for Pan’s Lost Boys.

description: The cost of constructing a rich digital twin of a road currently outweighs its benefits. This is the prevailing industry view even though a simple highway geometric digital twin has the potential to boost cost, time, quality, safety and sustainability performance. This paper presents a review of the current state of the art in practice and research in constructing and maintaining highway 6 digital twins, focusing on road infrastructure geometry and relationships. We calculate frequent highway assets for prioritisation and construct geometric digital twins in commercial software to estimate costs. We also highlight the limitations, identify gaps in knowledge and propose research directions.

description: The movement which takes an historical event – the bombing of the Sari Nightclub in Bali on October 12, 2002 – into the “slipstream above the stratosphere” is also the movement of transtasman poet Stephen Oliver’s admirable 2003 chapbook: Deadly Pollen. To be more precise, two movements dominate here. The first sends history into the stratosphere: “Time passes – that pressure in space again” (Poem 7). According to the second movement, the laws of Newtonian physics reassert themselves and there are so many particular things that fall: sand, dust, snow, “star flecks, nova spittle” (Poem 26). Earthly bombing becomes nova explosion. The poem’s perspective expands until it collapses under its own metaphysical weight into an even smaller, even more constricted topos: “in an emptied / space within a space caved under” (Poem 2). This is the cosmic claustrophobia characterising the sequence of thirty-one granular poems making up the (w)hole of “Deadly Pollen”.

description: In the eastern coastal cities of China, the need for supervision of illegal land use is urgent requiring new ways to promptly identify and put a stop to the practice. In this paper, we present a practical example through the generation of thematic maps for illegal land use risk assessment in Shenzhen city with the assistance of GIS. Thematic maps are useful in relation to the following points. First, they could be a template for generating illegal land use risk assessment maps. Second, illegal land use risk assessment maps indicate the different risk levels of each community, which allows for more effective illegal land use supervision to protect the cultivated and ecological land. Third, with the assistance of GIS, the process of spatial analysis and mapping becomes more efficient as a tool in this supervision.

description: There is a traditional pickled tea fermented under anaerobic condition in many Asian countries, but its quality characteristics are still unclear. The dynamic qualities, chemical components, and volatile components of pickled tea processed by submerged fermentation were investigated. The results showed that the sensory qualities of the pickled tea gradually improved with increasing fermentation time. Sensory qualities decreased gradually after 7 d of fermentation, and the change was extremely significant (p < 0.01). Correspondingly, biochemical indicators (except for soluble extract) decreased continuously and significantly (p < 0.01) within 5–7 d of fermentation, but the decrease was much slower in the later stage. The proper control of fermentation time is a key step for obtaining the desired quality of pickled tea. By submerged fermentation for 7 d, the best sensory quality of pickled tea was obtained: the taste of pickled tea was less bitter and astringent, but certainly acidic; the flavor of pickled tea was sour with sweet and floral tastes; the tea had low caffeine content, high gamma-amino butyric acid content, and high contents of special volatile components, such as hotrienol and 2,6-bis (1,1-dimethylethyl)-4-methyl-phenol. Results indicated that submerged fermentation is potentially a new method of processing pickled tea to obtain the desired quality. Our results contribute to the understanding of the microbial transformation of tea components under anaerobic conditions.

description: The rich and electrostatically tunable phase diagram exhibited by moiré materials has made them a suitable platform for hosting single material multi-purpose devices. To engineer such devices, understanding electronic transport and localization across electrostatically defined interfaces is of fundamental importance. Little is known, however, about how the interplay between the band structure originating from the moiré lattice and electric potential gradients affects electronic confinement. Here, we electrostatically define a cavity across a twisted double bilayer graphene sample. We observe two kinds of Fabry-Pérot oscillations. The first, independent of charge polarity, stems from confinement of electrons between dispersive-band/flat-band interfaces. The second arises from junctions between regions tuned into different flat bands. When tuning the out-of-plane electric field across the device, we observe Coulomb blockade resonances in transport, an indication of strong electronic confinement. From the gate, magnetic field and source-drain voltage dependence of the resonances, we conclude that quantum dots form at the interfaces of the Fabry-Pérot cavity. Our results constitute a first step towards better understanding interfacial phenomena in single crystal moiré devices.

Isaac's Sacrifice: Operation of Word and Image in Ashkenazi Religious Ceremonies
Creators: name: Shalev-Eyni, Sarit
Publisher: name: Entangled Religions
Year: 2020

description: In the Ashkenazi public prayer domain, narratives and figures were limited to the illumination of large prayer books used by the cantor and smaller copies for private use, ordered by those members of the community who could afford them. Operation of word and image in this context enabled worshipers to interact with the human ancestors of the Jewish people and related fundamental biblical events perceived in the liturgy as ancestral merits. However, while the basic texts used in such collaborations were recited or sung by the cantor or believers and formed a consistent obligatory part of the liturgy, the images were always a flexible nonobligatory addition, open to variation. Often, there may be a clear gap between the two in regard to contents, a result of the way the Jewish visual language crystallized in Christian Europe. This article exemplifies the complexities involved in the process of such an operation as expressed in two Ashkenazi liturgical manuscripts of around 1300.

Lit from above and wiped clean of the sweat of labour, the metallic skins of designer watches, digital video cameras and the soft curves of perfume bottles are suggestively posed on velvet cloth or propped up on display stands for maximum exposure. The English labels and posters of blonde European women add further layers of fantasy to the objects. It all seems so far away. His eyes are drawn to the sparkling surfaces and he takes a step closer until his nose touches the glass. He doesn’t notice the security camera hidden in the glare of the overhead lights. It all seems so close. Then the security guard steps from beside the door and with a firm hand on his shoulder directs him away from the glass wall. As he looks back over his shoulder he sees the security guard wiping the glass with a cloth where his nose left a tiny round mark.

description: In recent years, the reassessment of quantum physical phenomena under the framework of resource theories has triggered the design of novel quantum technologies that take advantage from quantum resources, such as entanglement and quantum coherence. Bearing this in mind, in this work we study the dynamics of quantum resources for two solid-state fermionic quantum devices: (i) a system composed by a pair of Majorana fermions and (ii) another comprising a pair of regular fermions. In both systems, the fermionic species are coupled to a single-level quantum dot. From the interaction of these tripartite systems with a dissipative reservoir, we were able to characterize the dynamics of the devices for some initial states. By employing a time-nonlocal master equation approach, we obtain the evolution for fermionic occupations, quantum correlations, and quantum coherences in both the Markovian and non-Markovian dissipating regimes. We investigate the interconversion of local coherence and bipartite correlations for the marginal states in each device. While the dynamics of the entanglement and quantum coherence depend quite strongly on the temperature of the reservoir for regular fermions, we found these evolutions are qualitatively similar for the case of Majorana bound states regardless of temperature. Our results illustrate the use of quantum information-theoretic measures to characterize the role of quantum resources in fermion systems.

description: It is proposed to consider the fast thermalization of gluons in relativistic heavy-ion collisions as a diffusion process in momentum space. Closed-form analytical solutions of a nonlinear boson diffusion equation (NBDE) with constant drift and diffusion coefficients v, D and boundary conditions at the singularity are derived. The time evolution towards local central temperatures T< 600 MeV through inelastic gluon scatterings in heavy-ion collisions is calculated for under- and overoccupied systems in the full momentum range. The results are consistent with QCD-based numerical calculations for gluon thermalization via inelastic gluon collisions.

description: Purpose: To examine the relationship between central aortic systolic pressure (CASP) and intraocular pressure (IOP), and to compare the strength of any association with that of peripheral blood pressure and IOP. Methods: Adults ranging in age from 40 to 80 years were consecutively recruited from the population-based Singapore Chinese Eye Study. We measured CASP using arterial tonometry (BPro) and IOP using Goldmann applanation tonometry. All participants had a standardized examination including a complete ophthalmic and systemic examination. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured using peripheral blood pressure cuff. Univariable and multiple linear regression analyses were performed to examine the relationship between CASP and IOP. Standardized regression coefficients (sβ) were calculated to compare the associations between CASP and SBP with IOP. Results: A total of 372 consecutive Chinese participants were analyzed. After adjusting for age, gender, body mass index, total cholesterol, use of antihypertensive medication and central corneal thickness, each 10 mmHg increase in CASP was associated with 0.32 mmHg of IOP elevation [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.10–0.53, sβ = 0.160, p value = 0.004]. SBP also had a positive relationship with IOP (β = 0.279, 95% CI: 0.079–0.479, sβ = 0.152, p value = 0.006). Associations between IOP and CASP, SBP and DBP were similar in participants using antihypertensive medication to participant not using antihypertensives. Conclusions: Increased CASP, as measured by arterial tonometry, is associated with higher IOP. Our results strengthen the relationship between systemic blood pressure and IOP.
'I have seen what I have seen': Charles Wright's 'Tattoos' and the Problem of Autobiography

description: For good or ill, modern poetry is bound to the idea of personal utterance. For the ancients this was merely the characteristic that separated lyric from dramatic and narrative poetry. But over the past two hundred years significant shifts have taken place. Lyric no longer means simply the single voice singing in the first person, whether actual or merely assumed, but also autobiography. Moreover, very little poetry has been written in either of the other two main genres for generations. Most modern poetry is premised, then, on the belief that the proper subject of poetry, perhaps the only subject, is the poet's own life and experience. Nonetheless, the connection between poetry and autobiography has not always been straightforward. There are considerable tensions between the demands of autobiography and the demands of the lyric. Such tensions can be found in Wordsworth’s Prelude and Whitman’s Leaves of Grass just as they can be found in more recent successors to the tradition associated with those two monumental figures: Hart Crane’s The Bridge; Robert Lowell’s Life Studies; John Berryman’s Dream Songs; even John Ashbery’s Flowchart all bear marks of the strain. In American poetry, at least, the tensions have been highly pitched indeed. As such they have been productive of great personal achievements and laid a foundation for numerous poetic schools and cliques. This brings up the other subject of this article, American poet, Charles Wright.
Résultats expérimentaux et théoriques sur la fissuration des voiles en béton armé

description: Dans le cadre du projet CEOS.fr, quatre maquettes de murs épais à l'échelle 1/3 ont été testées et soumises à des actions cycliques. L'objectif était d'obtenir des données sur le mécanisme et le faciès de fissuration quand un mur est soumis à un chargement cyclique non-alterné ou alterné appliqué dans son plan de symétrie. Les méthodes de mesure utilisées ont permis une exploitation statistique des valeurs mesurées, en termes d’espacement entre fissures et d’ouvertures de fissures. Les résultats obtenus ont ainsi pu être comparés à ce que donnent les formules des codes de conception (Eurocode 2 et Code Modèle 2010 de la fib), ce qui a permis de mettre en évidence les insuffisances de ces formules. En outre, une formulation de l’ouverture de fissure a été mise au point pour son évaluation à partir d’un calcul de structure. Enfin, un lien clair a été mis en évidence entre la distorsion d’un voile (« drift ») et la fissuration en phase stabilisée.

description: Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis is widely used in engineering. Although CFD calculations are accurate, the computational cost associated with complex systems makes it difficult to obtain empirical equations between system variables. Here we combine active learning (AL) and symbolic regression (SR) to get a symbolic equation for system variables from CFD simulations. Gaussian process regression-based AL allows for automated selection of variables by selecting the most instructive points from the available range of possible parameters. The results from these experiments are then passed to SR to find empirical symbolic equations for CFD models. This approach is scalable and applicable for any desired number of CFD design parameters. To demonstrate the effectiveness, we use this method with two model systems. We recover an empirical equation for the pressure drop in a bent pipe and a new equation for predicting backflow in a heart valve under arotic insufficiency.

description: This study reports ambient concentrations of 63 air toxics that were measured in Canada by the National Air Pollution Surveillance (NAPS) program over the period 2009 to 2013. Measured concentrations are compared to ambient air quality guidelines from Canadian jurisdictions and compounds that exceeded guidelines are identified and discussed. Though this study does not assess risk or cumulative effects, air toxics that approached guidelines are also identified so that their potential contribution to ambient air toxics pollution can be considered.Eleven air toxics exceeded at least one guideline and an additional sixteen approached guidelines during the study period. Four compounds were measured using methods whose detection limits exceeded a guideline value, three of which could not be compared to guidelines since they were not detected in any samples. The assessment of several metal(loid) concentrations is tentative since they were measured only in fine particulate matter (PM) but compared to guidelines based on coarse or total PM. Improvements to sampling and analysis techniques for the latter compounds as well as for those whose methods are subject to known uncertainties would improve confidence in reported concentrations and their relation to applicable guidelines. Analysis of sampling strategies for all compounds found to exceed or approach guidelines would contribute to ensuring that their spatiotemporal coverage is adequate. Examination of the air toxics not measured by NAPS but having guidelines in Canadian jurisdictions or being included in other programs such as the US National-Scale Air Toxics Assessment (NATA) would contribute to ensuring that the full suite of pollutants relevant to ambient air quality in Canada is subject to adequate study. The results of this study can be applied to evaluating the effectiveness of toxic substances management in Canada.
ImplicationsRecent measurements of 63 air toxics in Canada by the National Air Pollution Surveillance (NAPS) program showed that eleven compounds exceeded daily or annual ambient air quality guidelines and that an additional sixteen compounds approached such guidelines within an order of magnitude. The results of this study can be applied to evaluating the effectiveness of toxic substances management in Canada and to identifying compounds that merit further investigation.
A Generative Entanglement: Word and Image in Roman Catholic Devotional Practice
Creators: name: Morgan, David
Publisher: name: Entangled Religions

description: Devotional piety broadly depends on events that are not accessible for direct observation and commonly offer very little, if anything, in the way of historical documentation. Sometimes the experiences to which devotion is directed in the veneration of saints is based on visionary experience for which reports are contradictory. This essay explores ways in which word and image are brought together to anchor evanescent or ephemeral, or entirely uncertain, origins and provide devotion with stable objects. I develop the view that word and image are generatively entangled, meaning that their ambiguous connections with one another are able to produce a medium in which devotion finds a footing. The discussion focuses on two case studies: Our Lady of Fátima and Saint Jude. Fátima is based on a series of apparitions to young children in 1917 and Jude is a historically shadowy figure whose cult underwent a modern revival, in part assisted by new iconographic developments that allowed devotees to link their saint to very old traditions. Lore and imagery work together as forms of saying and seeing that bring elusive origins into focus.

description: Why and how is it productive to conceptualize religion as mediation? In this article, I 1) rehearse the intellectual trajectory of the move from studying the implications of the adoption of new mass media into religious practices to a broader idea of religion as a practice of mediation; 2) address some criticisms raised with regard to the concept of religion-as-mediation from my position in the interface of anthropology and religious studies; 3) discuss the evocation of a sense of transcendence through sensational forms, and 4) by way of an outlook, pinpoint how conceptualizing religion as mediation is useful to unpack religious plurality.

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.
