description: We present the first findings of the vacancy-related centers identified by the electron spin resonance (ESR) and electrically-detected (ED) ESR method in the non-irradiated 6H-SiC nanostructure. This planar 6H-SiC nanostructure represents the ultra-narrow p-type quantum well confined by the δ-barriers heavily doped with boron on the surface of the n-type 6H-SiC (0001) wafer. The EDESR method by measuring the only magnetoresistance of the 6H SiC nanostructure under the high frequency generation from the δ-barriers appears to allow the identification of the silicon vacancy centers as well as the triplet center with spin state S=1. The same triplet center that is characterized by the larger value of the zero-field splitting constant D and anisotropic g-factor is revealed by the ESR (X-band) method. The hyperfine (hf) lines in the ESR and EDESR spectra originating from the hf interaction with the 14N nucleus allow us to attribute this triplet center to the N-VSi defect.

The Words Children Learn

description: The focus of this study of early word learning was on the status of object words in early vocabularies because of the considerable emphasis given to nouns or object names in both traditional part-of-speech analyses and more recent theory and research on lexical principles. Fourteen children were followed from 9 months to 2 years of age, and monthly vocabulary growth was analyzed with the children equated for both onset and achievement in word learning. The main result was that object words represented approximately one third, on average, of the different words the children learned. Nouns could be considered the largest part of speech in their vocabularies only if other part-of-speech category assignments are valid or even possible—neither of which is the case for presyntactic vocabularies. Object-specific lexical principles cannot explain word learning, if most of the words a child learns are other than names for objects. More general principles are needed, such as the Principle of Relevance offered here, for determining how a presyntactic child learns any kind of word.

description: Electron flow through a quantum point contact in presence of spin-orbit coupling is investigated theoretically in the context of the scanning gate microscopy (SGM) conductance mapping. Although in the absence of the floating gate the spin-orbit coupling does not significantly alter the conductance, we find that the angular dependence of the SGM images of the electron flow at the conductance plateaux is substantially altered as the spin-orbit interaction mixes the orbital modes that enter the quantum point contact. The radial interference fringes that are obtained in the SGM maps at conductance steps are essentially preserved by the spin-orbit interaction as backscattering by the tip preserves the electron spin although the effects of the mode mixing are visible.

description: This study examined the impact of external sector determinants on economic growth in Nigeria. Specifically, the study examined the influence of exchange rate, foreign direct investment inflows, official development assistance received, and external debt on GDP per capita from 1987 to 2022. The study used Annual times series data obtained from the World Economic Indicators (WDI) of the World Bank. The econometric techniques of auto-regressive distributive lag (ARDL) method, Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) Unit Root test, and Error Correction Method (ECM) were employed in the empirical analysis. The result of the unit root test showed that the variables had mixed order of integration. Further, the ARDL estimation showed that, in the long run, Nigeria’s external sector did not exert any significant influence on growth in GDP per capita. However, in the short run, it was established that, while foreign direct investment inflows and external debt positively influenced growth in GDP per capita in Nigeria. Although, exchange rate and official development assistance received were statistically significant in influencing the behaviour of GDP per capita in Nigeria, the relationship was negative. The result further showed that the model was free from the problem of serial correlation, heteroscedasticity, and misspecification error. Finally, the study recommended that, Nigeria should fast-track increased access of FDI to maintain a short run growth of GDP per capita

description: Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit der Frage, welche Faktoren Einfluss auf die Arbeitsleistung von Angestellten im Homeoffice haben können. Zu diesem Zweck wurde eine Mitarbeiterbefragung bei der österreichischen Firma Eurofox durchgeführt, bei welcher insgesamt 87 Angestellte mittels Fragebogen befragt wurden. Zum Befragungszeitraum waren die Teilnehmer beinahe ausschließlich im Homeoffice tätig. Um die Forschungsfrage zu beantworten, soll zunächst ein Überblick über relevante theoretische Konzepte gegeben werden. Folglich wird eine quantitative Studie durchgeführt, um mit Hilfe von linearen Regressionsmodellen signifikante Zusammenhänge nachzuweisen. Wie die Ergebnisse zeigen, haben zum einen die wahrgenommene Fairness der Vorgesetzten und zum anderen das technische Umfeld starke Einflüsse auf die Arbeitsleistung von Angestellten im Homeoffice. Im Anschluss werden die Ergebnisse in Anbetracht bereits vorhandener Literatur diskutiert. Obwohl aufgrund geringer Fallzahlen eine Verallgemeinerung nur bedingt möglich ist, so können doch wichtige Grunderkenntnisse für zukünftige Studien gefunden werden.

The mass-dependence of disc lifetimes leads to differences in the planets formed

description: The lifetime of protoplanetary discs is a key parameter for planet formation theory.Observations of disk fractions in star clusters imply median disk lifetimes of 1-3 Myr. This very short disk lifetime calls for planet formation to occur extremely rapidly. We show that young, distant clusters (≤5 Myr, >200 pc) often dominate these types of studies. Such clusters frequently suffer from limiting magnitudes leading to an over-representation of high-mass stars. As high-mass stars disperse their disks earlier, the derived disk lifetimes apply best to high-mass stars rather than low-mass stars. Including only nearby clusters (<200 pc) minimizes the effect of limiting magnitude. In this case, the median disk lifetime of low-mass stars is with 5-10 Myr, thus much longer than often claimed. The longer timescales provide planets ample time to form. How high-mass stars form planets so much faster than low-mass stars is the next grand challenge.

Speech

description: Temporal and topic contingencies between child and mother speech are reported at 2 achievements in language development in the second year. Measured against their respective baseline rates of speech, children were most likely to talk before mother speech and mothers most likely to talk after child speech. This pattern, evident at both language achievements, increased in amplitude with development. These early conversations were generated by the children; neither their interactions nor word learning depended on adult-scaffolded formats. Only about one-third of all child speech occurred in response to something mothers said; only half of all child speech received a topic-related response. When mothers responded, they most often simply acknowledged, repeated, or clarified what the child said. The results supported the intentionality model for language development, in which the child's role is primary: Children learn words for expression and interpretation in order to share contents of mind, bringing words to their conversations that they've already learned in other contexts.

description: We investigate the onset of parity-time ($\mathcal{PT}$) symmetry breaking in non-Hermitian tight-binding lattices with spatially-extended loss/gain regions in presence of an advective term. Similarly to the instability properties of hydrodynamic open flows, it is shown that $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry breaking can be either absolute or convective. In the former case, an initially-localized wave packet shows a secular growth with time at any given spatial position, whereas in the latter case the growth is observed in a reference frame moving at some drift velocity while decay occurs at any fixed spatial position. In the convective unstable regime, $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry is restored when the spatial region of gain/loss in the lattice is limited (rather than extended). We consider specifically a non-Hermitian extension of the Rice-Mele tight binding lattice model, and show the existence of a transition from absolute to convective symmetry breaking when the advective term is large enough. An extension of the analysis to ac-dc-driven lattices is also presented, and an optical implementation of the non-Hermitian Rice-Mele model is suggested, which is based on light transport in an array of evanescently-coupled optical waveguides with a periodically-bent axis and alternating regions of optical gain and loss.

description: Conductor copies of musical scores are typically rich in handwritten annotations. Ongoing archival efforts to digitize orchestral conductors' scores have made scanned copies of hundreds of these annotated scores available in digital formats.

The extraction of handwritten annotations from digitized printed documents is a difficult task for computer vision, with most approaches focusing on the extraction of handwritten text. However, conductors' annotation practices provide us with at least two affordances, which make the task more tractable in the musical domain.

First, many conductors opt to mark their scores using colored pencils, which contrast with the black and white print of sheet music. Consequently, we show promising results when using color separation techniques alone to recover handwritten annotations from conductors' scores.

We also compare annotated scores to unannotated copies and use a printed sheet music comparison tool to recover handwritten annotations as additions to the clean copy. We then investigate the use of both of these techniques in a combined method, which improves the results of the color separation technique.

These techniques are demonstrated using a sample of orchestral scores annotated by professional conductors of the New York Philharmonic. Handwritten annotation extraction in musical scores has applications to the systematic investigation of score annotation practices by performers, annotator attribution, and to the interactive presentation of annotated scores, which we briefly discuss.

We also show that the $N=4$ extended supersymmetry is unbroken and we extend the two $N=2$ one dimensional supersymmetries that the system also possess, to have a trivial central charge. The implications of the trivial central charge on the Witten index are also discussed.

description: Background: While several studies have documented the importance of hand washing in the university setting, the added role of environmental hygiene remains poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to characterize the personal and environmental hygiene habits of college students, define the determinants of hygiene in this population, and assess the relationship between reported hygiene behaviors, environmental contamination, and health status. Methods: 501 undergraduate students completed a previously validated survey assessing baseline demographics, hygiene habits, determinants of hygiene, and health status. Sixty survey respondents had microbiological samples taken from eight standardized surfaces in their dormitory environment. Bacterial contamination was assessed using standard quantitative bacterial culture techniques. Additional culturing for coagulase-positive Staphylococcus and coliforms was performed using selective agar. Results: While the vast majority of study participants (n = 461, 92%) believed that hand washing was important for infection prevention, there was a large amount of variation in reported personal hygiene practices. More women than men reported consistent hand washing before preparing food (p = .002) and after using the toilet (p = .001). Environmental hygiene showed similar variability although 73.3% (n = 367) of subjects reported dormitory cleaning at least once per month. Contamination of certain surfaces was common, with at least one third of all bookshelves, desks, refrigerator handles, toilet handles, and bathroom door handles positive for <10 CFU of bacteria per 4 cm2 area. Coagulase-positive Staphylococcus was detected in three participants' rooms (5%) and coliforms were present in six students' rooms (10%). Surface contamination with any bacteria did not vary by frequency of cleaning or frequency of illness (p

description: We study the functional renormalization group flow of a Higgs-Yukawa toy model mimicking the top-Higgs sector of the standard model. This approach allows for treating arbitrary bare couplings. For the class of standard bare potentials of ϕ^4-type at a given ultraviolet cut-off, we show that a finite infrared Higgs mass range emerges naturally from the renormalization group flow itself. Higgs masses outside the resulting bounds cannot be connected to any conceivable set of bare parameters in this standard-model ϕ^4 class. By contrast, more general bare potentials allow to diminish the lower bound considerably. We identify a simple renormalization group mechanism for this depletion of the lower bound. If active also in the full standard model, Higgs masses smaller than the conventional infrared window do not necessarily require new physics at low scales or give rise to instability problems.

description: Die vorliegende Studie befasst sich mit Anglizismen in Produktbezeichnungen bzw. beschreibungen und inwiefern diese die Wahrnehmung von Produkten beeinflussen können. Außerdem wurden eine mögliche Auswirkung auf das Kaufverhalten sowie potenzielle länderspezifische Unterschiede zwischen österreichischen und deutschen Teilnehmenden erforscht. Dazu wurde eine empirische Studie durchgeführt, bei der in einem Online-Fragebogen 100 österreichische und deutsche Studierende mithilfe eines semantischen Differenzials insgesamt acht Stimulipaare bewerteten, jeweils in einer gänzlich deutschsprachigen Version sowie in einer Version mit Anglizismen. Im Anschluss wurden die Daten mittels SPSS statistisch ausgewertet. Die Ergebnisse zeigten signifikante Unterschiede in der Wahrnehmung von Anglizismen in vielen Aspekten; auf das angegebene Kaufverhalten hatte dies jedoch scheinbar keine Auswirkung. Die Stimuli wurden von beiden länderspezifischen Gruppen zwar sehr ähnlich eingestuft, die Bewertungen der deutschen Gruppe lagen dabei jedoch deutlich näher am oberen Skalenende. Diese Studie trägt damit zur Schließung zweier Forschungslücken bei – einerseits bezüglich des Einflusses von Anglizismen in Produktbezeichnungen bzw. beschreibungen auf die Produktwahrnehmung und andererseits im Hinblick auf potenzielle länderspezifische Unterschiede – und liefert erkenntnisreiche Ergebnisse für die Sprachwissenschaft sowie die Werbeforschung.
description: The present study focuses on anglicisms in product descriptions and to what extent they might affect the perception of products. A potential impact on purchasing behaviour and differences between Austrian and German participants were investigated as well. For this purpose, an empirical study was conducted, in which 100 students filled in an online questionnaire by evaluating eight pairs of stimuli both in a German version and a version containing anglicisms using a semantic differential. Subsequently, the data were analysed statistically using SPSS. The results demonstrated significant differences in the perception of anglicisms for the majority of the items; however, an effect on intended purchasing behaviour was not found. Despite both the Austrian and German participants’ ratings being similar for the most part, the German group’s ratings were typically closer to the upper end of the scale. Hence, this study addresses two research gaps – the effect that anglicisms in product descriptions might have on the perception of products, as well as potential differences in perception of Austrian and German participants – yielding insightful results relevant for both linguistics and advertising research.

description: Cone beam CT (CBCT) has been widely used for patient setup in image guided radiation therapy (IGRT). Radiation dose from CBCT scans has become a clinical concern. The purposes of this study are 1) to commission a GPU-based Monte Carlo (MC) dose calculation package gCTD for Varian On-Board Imaging (OBI) system and test the calculation accuracy, and 2) to quantitatively evaluate CBCT dose from the OBI system in typical IGRT scan protocols. We first conducted dose measurements in a water phantom. X-ray source model parameters used in gCTD are obtained through a commissioning process. gCTD accuracy is demonstrated by comparing calculations with measurements in water and in CTDI phantoms. 25 brain cancer patients are used to study dose in a standard-dose head protocol, and 25 prostate cancer patients are used to study dose in pelvis protocol and pelvis spotlight protocol. Mean dose to each organ is calculated. Mean dose to 2% voxels that have the highest dose is also computed to quantify the maximum dose. It is found that the mean dose value to an organ varies largely among patients. Moreover, dose distribution is highly non-homogeneous inside an organ. The maximum dose is found to be 1~3 times higher than the mean dose depending on the organ, and is up to 8 times higher for the entire body due to the very high dose region in bony structures. High computational efficiency has also been observed in our studies, such that MC dose calculation time is less than 5 min for a typical case.

description: Marked prolongation of the QT interval on the electrocardiogram associated with the polymorphic ventricular tachycardia Torsades de Pointes is a serious adverse event during treatment with antiarrhythmic drugs and other culprit medications, and is a common cause for drug relabeling and withdrawal. Although clinical risk factors have been identified, the syndrome remains unpredictable in an individual patient. Here we used genome-wide association analysis to search for common predisposing genetic variants. Cases of drug-induced Torsades de Pointes (diTdP), treatment tolerant controls, and general population controls were ascertained across multiple sites using common definitions, and genotyped on the Illumina 610k or 1M-Duo BeadChips. Principal Components Analysis was used to select 216 Northwestern European diTdP cases and 771 ancestry-matched controls, including treatment-tolerant and general population subjects. With these sample sizes, there is 80% power to detect a variant at genome-wide significance with minor allele frequency of 10% and conferring an odds ratio of ≥2.7. Tests of association were carried out for each single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) by logistic regression adjusting for gender and population structure. No SNP reached genome wide-significance; the variant with the lowest P value was rs2276314, a non-synonymous coding variant in C18orf21 (p  =  3×10−7, odds ratio = 2, 95% confidence intervals: 1.5–2.6). The haplotype formed by rs2276314 and a second SNP, rs767531, was significantly more frequent in controls than cases (p  =  3×10−9). Expanding the number of controls and a gene-based analysis did not yield significant associations. This study argues that common genomic variants do not contribute importantly to risk for drug-induced Torsades de Pointes across multiple drugs.

Frenkel electron on an arbitrary electromagnetic background and magnetic Zitterbewegung

description: We present Lagrangian which implies both necessary constraints and dynamical equations for position and spin of relativistic spin one-half particle. The model is consistent for any value of magnetic moment $μ$ and for arbitrary electromagnetic background. Our equations coincide with those of Frenkel in the approximation in which the latter have been obtained by Frenkel. Transition from approximate to exact equations yields two structural modifications of the theory. First, Frenkel condition on spin-tensor turns into the Pirani condition. Second, canonical momentum is no more proportional to velocity. Due to this, even when $μ=1$ (Frenkel case), the complete and approximate equations predict different behavior of particle. The difference between momentum and velocity means extra contribution into spin-orbit interaction. To estimate the contribution, we found exact solution to complete equations for the case of uniform magnetic field. While Frenkel electron moves around the circle, our particle experiences magnetic {\it Zitterbewegung}, that is oscillates in the direction of magnetic field with amplitude of order of Compton wavelength for the fast particle. Besides, the particle has dipole electric moment.

description: Newsletter dated February/March 1984 produced by the Women’s Occupational Health Resource Center (WOHRC).The WOHRC (1979-1987) was a research and training program devoted to identifying and better understanding hazards faced by women workers. WOHRC was housed in Columbia’s School of Public Health and directed by Professor Jeanne Mager Stellman. WOHRC was a designated OSHA New Directions Training program, and also received support from other federal and private agencies. As a New Directions project, WOHRC trained thousands of workers and professionals in hazard recognition and accident and illness prevention for women workers. In order to carry out its public health programs, WOHRC developed and disseminated original educational materials. The materials were designed to be authoritative while at the same time accessible to non-professional users (e.g. the workers). WOHRC published a monthly newsletter that contained a “fact sheet” focusing on a particular job or a particular hazard. This issue features articles titled "ASBESTOS: What to Do; When to Act" and "Glare, Screen Quality Determine Eye Comfort". The fact sheets were also made available individually or collected into “fact packs” of related materials.
title: Der Beitrag von Foodcoops in Österreich zur Degrowth-Bewegung

description: Die Lebensmittelindustrie hat durch die Produktion von Lebensmitteln und die dadurch entstehenden Effekte einen Einfluss auf alle Menschen weltweit und damit deren Wohlbefinden. Diese Masterarbeit ordnet sich in das Feld der Lebensmitteldemokratie ein und betrachtet damit zusammenhängend Foodcooperations (Foodcoops) in Österreich und setzt diese in einen Zusammenhang mit dem Konzept Degrowth. Dabei wird analysiert, inwiefern Foodcoops in Österreich das Potenzial haben, einen Beitrag zum Erreichen einer Postwachstumsgesellschaft im Sinne von Degrowth zu leisten. Um dies herauszufinden, wird sich auf Sekundärquellen bezogen, sowie leitfadengestützte Expert*inneninterviews mit Mitgliedern von Foodcoops durchgeführt. Die erfolgte Analyse ergibt, dass es zahlreiche Übereinstimmungen in ökologischen sowie ökonomischen Aspekten zwischen Foodcoops in Österreich und Degrowth gibt. Zudem zeigen die beteiligten Akteure, die Motivation, sowie das Alltagsverhalten von Foodcoop-Mitgliedern in Österreich Übereinstimmungen mit dem Degrowth-Konzept. Foodcoops sind somit eine Möglichkeit, um Degrowth in der Praxis zu leben, jedoch ist dies vielen Mitglieder der Foodcoops nicht bewusst. Dennoch trägt ihre Mitgliedschaft zur fairen und nachhaltigen Produktion von Lebensmitteln bei. Der Begriff stille Nachhaltigkeit beschreibt somit den Einfluss der Foodcoop Mitglieder auf das Transformationspotenzial in eine Postwachstumsgesellschaft adäquat.
description: Through the production of food and the resulting effects, the food industry has an impact on all people worldwide and therefore their well-being. This master thesis is part in the field of food democracy and looks at foodcooperations (foodcoops) in Austria and puts them in a context with the concept of degrowth. It will be analyzed to what extent foodcoops in Austria have the potential to contribute to the achievement of a post-growth society in the sense of degrowth. In order to determine this, secondary sources will be used and guided interviews with members of foodcoops will be conducted. The analysis shows that there are numerous similarities in ecological and economic aspects between foodcoops in Austria and degrowth. In addition, the participating actors, the motivation, as well as the everyday behavior of foodcoop members in Austria show similarities with the degrowth concept. Foodcoops are therefore a possibility to live degrowth in practice, but many members of foodcoops are not directly aware of this. Nevertheless, their membership contributes to the fair and sustainable production of food. The term silent sustainability describes the influence of the foodcoop members on the transformation potential to a postgrowth society adequately.

description: The study focused on impact of federal government taxes on Nigeria economic growth. In achieving the objectives of the study, ex-post facto research design was adopted. The source of data for this work is secondary data through the use of CBN statistical bulletin and Federal Inland Revenue bulletin. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics, unit root and AutoRegression Distribution Lag (ARDL). The findings revealed that federal government taxes (PPT, CIT, VAT and CED) have no significant impact on change in gross domestic product in Nigeria. The findings also revealed that federal government taxes (PPT, CIT, VAT and CED) have no significant impact on change in foreign direct investment in Nigeria. The findings further revealed that federal government taxes (PPT, CIT, VAT and CED) have no significant impact on change in per capital income in Nigeria. Based on the findings, the study recommends Nigeria government should put policies in place that will foster the continual growth in tax revenue from custom and excise duty, personal income tax, company income tax and value added tax which are progressive in nature. This can be achieved through proper implementation of policies that improve the mechanisms for generating these tax revenues. If imports are discouraged through lower company income tax and higher custom duties, this will improve local production and increase economic growth through upscale of gross domestic product. Also, Nigeria government should set a custom and excise duty rates that are favorable to investors who are willing to carry out investment that encourages local production
