description: We propose a new mathematical tool for the study of transport properties of models for lattice vibrations in crystalline solids. By replication of dynamical degrees of freedom, we aim at a new dynamical system where the "local" dynamics can be isolated and solved independently from the "global" evolution. The replication procedure is very generic but not unique as it depends on how the original dynamics are split between the local and global dynamics. As an explicit example, we apply the scheme to study thermalization of the pinned harmonic chain with velocity flips. We improve on the previous results about this system by showing that after a relatively short time period the average kinetic temperature profile satisfies the dynamic Fourier's law in a local microscopic sense without assuming that the initial data is close to a local equilibrium state. The bounds derived here prove that the above thermalization period is at most of the order L^(2/3), where L denotes the number of particles in the chain. In particular, even before the diffusive time scale Fourier's law becomes a valid approximation of the evolution of the kinetic temperature profile. As a second application of the dynamic replica method, we also briefly discuss replacing the velocity flips by an anharmonic onsite potential.

description: We explore the phenomenology of virtual spin-1 contributions to the h to gamma gamma and h to Z gamma decay rates in gauge extensions of the standard model. We consider generic lorentz and gauge invariant vector self-interactions, which can have non-trivial structure after diagonalizing the quadratic part of the action. Such features are phenomenologically relevant in models where the electroweak gauge bosons mix with additional spin-1 fields, such as occurs in little higgs models, extra dimensional models, strongly coupled variants of electroweak symmetry breaking, and other gauge extensions of the standard model. In models where non-renormalizable operators mix field strengths of gauge groups, the one-loop higgs decay amplitudes can be logarithmically divergent, and we provide power counting for the size of the relevant counter-term. We provide an example calculation in a 4-site moose model that contains degrees of freedom that model the effects of vector and axial vector resonances arising from TeV scale strong dynamics.

description: The People Management and Innovation survey reports findings from 165 of the top performing organisations in Ireland. The picture that emerges from the analysis suggests a moderate to low take-up of a full-blown High Performance Work System model; a finding that is similar to other comparable international studies showing the low overall incidence of strategic bundles of HRM (Blasi and Kruse 2006; Kersely et al, 2006). Nonetheless, we find support for the argument that High Performance Work Systems (HPWS) impact positively upon a number of performance outcomes i.e. organisational performance, HR performance, employee effort and innovation
On a recent preliminary study for the measurement of the Lense-Thirring effect with the Galileo satellites

description: It has been recently proposed to combine the node drifts of the future constellation of 27 Galileo spacecraft together with those of the existing LAGEOS-type satellites to improve the accuracy of the past and ongoing tests of the Lense-Thirring (LT) effect by removing the bias of a larger number of even zonal harmonics $J_{\ell}$ than either done or planned so far. Actually, it seems a difficult goal to be realistically achieved for a number of reasons. First, the LT range signature of a Galileo-type satellite is as little as $0.5$ mm over 3-days arcs, corresponding to a node rate of just $\dotΩ_{\rm LT}=2$ milliarcseconds per year (mas yr$^{-1}$). Some tesseral and sectorial ocean tides such as $K_1,K_2$ induce long-period harmonic node perturbations with frequencies which are integer multiples of the extremely slow Galileo's node rate $\dotΩ$ completing a full cycle in about 40 yr. Thus, over time spans $T$ of some years they would act as superimposed semi-secular aliasing trends. Since the coefficients of the $J_{\ell}$-free multisatellite linear combinations are determined only by the semimajor axis $a$, the eccentricity $e$ and the inclination $I$, which are nominally equal for all the Galileo satellites, it is not possible to include all of them. Even by using only one Galileo spacecraft together with the LAGEOS family would be unfeasible because the resulting Galileo coefficient would be $\gtrsim 1$, thus enhancing the aliasing impact of the uncancelled non-conservative and tidal perturbations.

description: Rattus sordidus (Gould, 1858). Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1857:242 [1858]. TYPE LOCALITY: Australia, Queensland, open plains Darling Downs = locality of lectotype (see Mahoney and Richardson, 1988). DISTRIBUTION: Australia; E coast from the tip of Cape York to NE New South Wales, and some off-shore islands (see Watts and Aslin, 1981:239). New Guinea; lowlands south of Central Cordillera from Dobodura in E Papua New Guinea west and north to Koembe in Irian Jaya (see map in Taylor et al., 1983:265). SYNONYMS: aramia, brachyrhinus, bunae, conatus, gestri, gestroi, youngi. COMMENTS: One of the two species of native Rattus in the New Guinea-Australian region that occurs on both land masses. On morphological evidence, Taylor and Horner (1973) arranged villosissimus and colletti as subspecies of R. sordidus . Later evaluations, however, based on chromosomal, biochemical, and hybridization data, suggested the three should be viewed as separate species in the same monophyletic cluster (Baverstock et al., 1977d, 1983a, 1986), which is the way they are treated in current faunal accounts and catalogs (Mahoney and Richardson, 1988; Watts and Aslin, 1981).

description: The Random Phase Approximation (RPA) for correlation energy in the grid-based projector augmented wave (gpaw) code is accelerated by porting to the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) architecture. The acceleration is achieved by grouping independent vectors/matrices and transforming the implementation from being memory bound to being computation/latency bound. With this approach, both the CPU and GPU implementations have been enhanced. We tested the GPU implementation on a few representative systems: molecules (O2), bulk solids (Li2O and MoO3) and molecules adsorbed on metal surfaces (N2/Ru(0001) and CO/Ni(111)). Improvements from 10+ to 40+ have been achieved (8-GPUs versus 8-CPUs). A realistic RPA calculation for CO/Ni(111) surface can be finished in 5.5 h using 8 GPUs. It is thus promising to employ non-self-consistent RPA for routine surface chemistry simulations.

Differential object marking in Chichewa
Creators: name: Downing, Laura J.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: In most Bantu languages, an object prefix can occur on the verb. In some Bantu languages,
 this object prefix has a purely anaphoric function, while in others it has an additional agree-
 ment function. Since Bresnan & Mchombo, Chichewa (Bantu N.31 Malawi) has been con-
 sidered a textbook example of a language where the object marker is “always an incor-
 porated pronoun and never a non-referential marker of grammatical agreement” (Bresnan
 & Mchombo 1987: 755). That is, in order for an overt nominal phrase (DP) to co-occur in
 the same sentence with an object prefix, the DP must be a dislocated Topic. Conversely, a
 dislocated object DP (a Topic) must be anaphorically bound to an object prefix. In this pa-
 per I present new Chichewa data showing that in modern colloquial Chichewa there is a
 human/non-human asymmetry in object marking. Human object DPs commonly co-occur
 with an object prefix, whether the object is a dislocated Topic or not, whereas non-human
 ones commonly do not co-occur with an object prefix, even when they are dislocated Top-
 ics. I conclude that Chichewa shows differential object marking (or object indexation), as hu-
 manness is a more important condition on the occurrence of object prefixes than word order.
 The implications of the Chichewa (and other Bantu) data for recent proposals like Creissels
 (2006), Dalrymple & Nikolaeva (2011) and Iemmolo (2013; 2014) about the diachronic devel-
 opment of DOM agreement systems from anaphoric Topic marking systems are discussed,
 and an alternative constraints-based account is proposed.

Numerical evidence for strong randomness scaling at a superfluid-insulator transition of one-dimensional bosons

Subjects: subject: Disordered Systems and Neural Networks (cond-mat.dis-nn)

description: We present numerical evidence from Monte Carlo simulations that the superfluid-insulator quantum phase transition of interacting bosons subject to strong disorder in one dimension is controlled by the strong-randomness critical point. At this critical point the distribution of superfluid stiffness over disorder realizations develops a power-law tail reflecting a universal distribution of weak links. The Luttinger parameter on the other hand does not take on a universal value at this critical point, in marked contrast to the known Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless-like superfluid-insulator transition in weakly disordered systems. We develop a finite-size scaling procedure which allows us to directly compare the numerical results from systems of linear size up to 1024 sites with theoretical predictions obtained by Altman et al. [ Phys. Rev. Lett. 93 150402 (2004)] using a strong disorder renormalization group approach. The data shows good agreement with the scaling expected at the strong-randomness critical point.

Coptic

description: This article argues that Differential Argument Indexing (DOI) and Differential Argument
 Marking (DOM) constructions in Coptic (Afroasiatic, Egypt) are reanalyzed, resulting in
 a set of verbs with interposed P-indexes within bipartite stems (DeLancey 1996; Nichols
 2003). Basically, incorporated noun phrases with prefixed possessor indexes become parts
 of derived verbs with unpredictable lexical semantics, and their erstwhile possessor prefixes,
 entrapped within the derived verb, are reanalyzed as P-interpositions. Since this possessor
 prefix ultimately developed from an earlier possessor suffix, the pathway documented here,
 stripped down to its essentials, is suffix → prefix → interposition, and erstwhile com-
 plex construction → bipartite stem. Finally, an overt genitive prefix that marks lexical
 possessors of incorporated noun phrases is reanalyzed as an accusative case prefix. These
 changes introduce new complexity into Coptic Differential Argument Marking: not only
 are P arguments either indexed as suffixes, case marked, or incorporated for the majority of
 verbs, they can be indexed as interpositions for a lexically determined set of verbs.
A note on smeared branes in flux vacua and gauged supergravity

description: In the known examples of flux vacua with calibrated spacetime-filling sources (branes or orientifold planes), one can smear the source in order to perform a standard KK reduction and obtain a lower-dimensional supergravity description. Furthermore, it is expected that the smeared and localized solution preserve equal amounts of supersymmetry. In this note we point out that the $\mathrm{AdS}_7$ solution discussed in arXiv:1111.2605 and arXiv:1309.2949 is a counterexample to this common lore. The solution is supersymmetric when the spacetime-filling D6-branes are localized but breaks supersymmetry in the smeared limit. By using the embedding tensor formalism we demonstrate that there is no gauged supergravity description for the solution, regardless of the source being smeared or not. We conjecture that for flux solutions with separation between the KK scale and the AdS radius this cannot occur.

description: This paper seeks to clarify the role of affectedness for the marking of direct objects through
 an analysis of a corpus of Lycopolitan Coptic texts (4th to 5th centuries AD). Whereas previ-
 ous research has shown the importance of definiteness for the use of the direct object marker
 n with the so-called imperfective tenses (present and imperfect), it has proven more diffi-
 cult to establish why it alternates in the non-imperfective with a zero marker. An attempt
 is made here to correlate the two different object constructions to Tsunoda’s verb-type hier-
 archy, which was conceived to capture the degree of affectedness. It appears that the more
 affected a direct object is, the more likely it is to receive the direct object marker; whenever
 the object is little affected or unaffected, the zero-marked construction is preferred.

description: The surface band bending tunes considerably the surface band structures and transport properties in topological insulators. We present a direct measurement of the band bending on the Bi2Se3 by using the bulk sensitive angular-resolved hard x-ray photospectroscopy (HAXPES). We tracked the depth dependence of the energy shift of Bi and Se core states. We estimate that the band bending extends up to about 20 nm into the bulk with an amplitude of 0.23--0.26 eV, consistent with profiles previously deduced from the binding energies of surface states in this material.

description: We study the patterns generated in finite-time sweeps across symmetry-breaking bifurcations in individual-based models. Similar to the well-known Kibble-Zurek scenario of defect formation, large-scale patterns are generated when model parameters are varied slowly, whereas fast sweeps produce a large number of small domains. The symmetry breaking is triggered by intrinsic noise, originating from the discrete dynamics at the micro-level. Based on a linear-noise approximation, we calculate the characteristic length scale of these patterns. We demonstrate the applicability of this approach in a simple model of opinion dynamics, a model in evolutionary game theory with a time-dependent fitness structure, and a model of cell differentiation. Our theoretical estimates are confirmed in simulations. In further numerical work, we observe a similar phenomenon when the symmetry-breaking bifurcation is triggered by population growth.

Constraining primordial magnetic fields with distortions of the black-body spectrum of the cosmic microwave background: pre- and post-decoupling contributions

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Observational limits on $y$- and $μ$-type distortions can constrain properties of magnetic fields in the early universe. For a Gaussian, random, and non-helical field, $μ$ and $y$ are calculated a function of the present-day strength of the field, $B_0$, smoothed over a certain Gaussian width, $k_c^{-1}$, and spectral index, $n_B$, defined by $P_B(k)\propto k^{n_B}$. For $n_B=-2.9$ and $k_c^{-1}=1 {\rm Mpc}$, the COBE/FIRAS limit on $μ$ yields $B_0<40$ nG, whereas the projected PIXIE limit on $μ$ would yield $B_0<0.8$ nG. For non-scale-invariant spectra, constraints can be stronger. For $B_0=1$ nG with $k_c^{-1}=1 {\rm Mpc}$, the COBE/FIRAS limit on $μ$ excludes a wide range of spectral indices given by $n_B>-2.6$. After decoupling, energy dissipation is due to ambipolar diffusion and decaying MHD turbulence, creating a $y$-type distortion. The distortion is completely dominated by decaying MHD turbulence, and is of order $y\approx 10^{-7}$ for a few nG field smoothed over the damping scale at the decoupling epoch, $k_{d,dec}\approx 290 (B_0/1 {\rm nG})^{-1} {\rm Mpc}^{-1}$. This contribution is as large as those of the known contributions such as reionization and virialized objects at lower redshifts. The projected PIXIE limit on $y$ would exclude $B_0>1.0$ and 0.6 nG for $n_B=-2.9$ and -2.3, respectively, and $B_0>0.6$ nG for $n_B\geq 2$. The current limits on the optical depth to Thomson scattering restrict the predicted $y$-type distortion to be $y\lesssim 10^{-8}$. (Abridged)

Emergence of optional accusative case marking in Khoe languages
Creators: name: McGregor, William B.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018
Subjects: accusative case-marking; grammaticalisation; Khoe family; optional case-marking; attention; prominence; backgrounding

description: A number of languages of the Khoe family – one of three genetic lineages comprising south-
 ern African Khoisan – show an accusative marker, typically a postposition which in its
 elsewhere form has the shape (-)(ʔ)à. In all languages for which adequate data is available,
 this postposition is optional on object NPs, at least in some circumstances. A few proposals
 have been made for the grammaticalisation of this marker, notably by Kilian-Hatz (2008: 55;
 2013: 376–378). However, not only are these proposals specific to the Khwe language, but
 also they fail to account for the fact that (-)(ʔ)à marks the accusative and that it is optional.
 In this paper I widen the net to the Khoe family as a whole, and consider the synchronic sit-
 uations for the usage of the marker (-)(ʔ)à and its putative cognates in those languages for
 which pertinent data is available. This is used to motivate a diachronic proposal concern-
 ing the grammaticalisation of (-)(ʔ)à in the modern languages. Specifically, it is proposed
 that the accusative marker began life as a presentative copula; this served to index an item,
 drawing the addressee’s attention to it. It later became an optional accusative marker via
 grammaticalisation processes akin to those outlined in McGregor (2008; 2010; 2013; 2017)
 for the development of optional ergative case markers in some Australian languages. Thus
 the grammaticalisation scenario proposed is consistent with pathways of development of
 other optional case-markers.

Ellipsis in Arabic fragment answers
Creators: name: Algryani, Ali
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2017

description: Fragment answers are short answers to questions consisting of non-sentential XPs that convey the same propositional content as complete sentential answers. This squib discusses the syntax of ellipsis in Arabic fragments answers focusing on whether or not ellipsis in fragmentary utterances contains syntactic structure and whether, if so, such fragmentary XPs can be derived via A-bar movement to a clause-initial position plus TP deletion at PF in a way similar to that of Merchant (2004). It is argued that ellipsis in Arabic fragment answers contains syntactic structure and therefore can be analysed as TP ellipsis derived by focus movement of the remnant to a left peripheral position followed by deletion of the TP constituting the background information. Such an analysis captures some morpho-syntactic effects such as morphological case-matching, preposition-stranding, and islands effects.

description: Based on first-principles calculations, we predict Bi2TeI, a stoichiometric compound synthesized, to be a weak topological insulator (TI) in layered subvalent bismuth telluroiodides. Within a bulk energy gap of 80 meV, two Dirac-cone-like topological surface states exist on the side surface perpendicular to BiTeI layer plane. These Dirac cones are relatively isotropic due to the strong inter-layer coupling, distinguished from those of previously reported weak TI candidates. Moreover, with chemically stable cladding layers, the BiTeI-Bi2-BiTeI sandwiched structure is a robust quantum spin Hall system, which can be obtained by simply cleaving the bulk Bi2TeI.

description: A long-neglected issue, population ageing is at the forefront of public discussion in Greece today. The debate is focused mainly on the economic effects of the increased percentage and number of people aged 65 and over at the national level, while often economic indicators are inaccurately associated with demographic ones. At the same time, there is little discussion on the issue of “ageing within ageing”, namely the rapid increase of the population aged 85 and over, and there is no mention of the spatial variation of ageing, i.e. the significantly differentiated percentage of those aged 65 and over and those aged 85 and over below the national level. In the following text we briefly comment on the issues raised above, using maps of our own elaboration, based on data for the estimated population of the 1/1/2020 provided by the Hellenic Statistical Authority. Our findings include, on one hand, a high degree of spatial variation beneath the national averages and on the other hand the rapid ageing of a large part of mainland Greece which, if not reversed, will undermine any efforts of socio-economic development. Immediate action is therefore imperative, if we do not wish to soon find ourselves in an irreversible situation, with a large part of the country continuously losing population, with a percentage of 30% of elderly in the total population and one in four elderly aged over 85 years.

description: Corporate Social Responsibility stellt einen strategischen Ansatz zur Unternehmensausrichtung dar, in dem der ausschließlich wirtschaftliche Blickwinkel auf unternehmerische Entscheidungen um soziale und ökologische Aspekte ergänzt werden soll. Aktuelle epidemische und rechtliche Entwicklungen wirken sich auf CSR-Maßnahmen in Unternehmen aus und eröffnen neue Forschungslücken. Die vorliegende Dissertation zielt darauf ab, einige der neu aufgekommenen und noch offenen Forschungslücken zu schließen, indem die Auswirkungen der aktuellen Entwicklungen auf Unternehmen und Stakeholder identifiziert werden. Neben einer Untersuchung eines Effekts der Corona-Pandemie auf CSR in mittelständischen Unternehmen werden die Auswirkungen des Reformvorschlags der EU Kommission zur Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive sowie die Verabschiedung des nationalen Lieferkettengesetzes auf Unternehmen festgestellt. Darüber hinaus wird in einem quantitativen Forschungsdesign untersucht, ob mit einer gezielten CSR Berichterstattung eine positive Beeinflussung der Stakeholder möglich ist.

Copulas originating from the imperative of 'see/look' verbs in Mande languages
Creators: name: Creissels, Denis
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2017

description: This paper analyzes Mande data that suggest a grammaticalization path leading from the imperative of ‘see/look’ verbs to ostensive predicators (i.e. words functionally similar to French voici, Italian ecco, or Russian vot), and further to copulas. Clear cases of copulas cognate with ‘see/look’ verbs are found in several branches of the Mande family, and there is convincing evidence that they did not develop from the semantic bleaching of forms originally meaning ‘is seen/found’ (another plausible grammaticalization path leading from ‘see’ verbs to copulas), but from the routinization of the ostensive use of the imperative of ‘see/look’. Comparison of the Mande data with the Arabic data provided by Taine-Cheikh (2013) shows however that this is not the only possibility for imperatives of ‘see/look’ verbs to grammaticalize into copulas, since in the Arabic varieties in which the imperative form of ‘see’ has become a plain copula, the most plausible explanation is that a modal/discursive particle resulting from the grammaticalization of the imperative of ‘see’ has undergone a process of semantic bleaching in the context of an equative or locational predicative construction that initially included no overt predicator.

description: We demonstrate order of magnitude coherent control of total transmission of light through random media by shaping the wavefront of the input light. To understand how the finite illumination area on a wide slab affects the maximum values of total transmission, we develop a model based on random matrix theory that reveals the role of long-range correlations. Its predictions are confirmed by numerical simulations and provide physical insight into the experimental results.

description: Paramyosins, muscle proteins occurring exclusively in invertebrates, are abundant in seafoods. The potential of seafood paramyosins (SP) as sources of anti-angiotensin-convertingenzyme (ACE) and anti-dipeptidyl-peptidase (DPP-IV) peptides is underexplored. This in silico study investigated the release of anti-ACE and anti-DPP-IV peptides from SP after gastrointestinal (GI) digestion. We focused on SP of the common octopus, Humboldt squid, Japanese abalone, Japanese scallop, Mediterranean mussel, Pacific oyster, sea cucumber, and Whiteleg shrimp. SP protein sequences were digested on BIOPEP-UWM, followed by identification of known anti-ACE and anti-DPP-IV peptides liberated. Upon screening for high-GI-absorption, non-allergenicity, and non-toxicity, shortlisted peptides were analyzed via molecular docking and dynamic to elucidate mechanisms of interactions with ACE and DPP-IV. Potential novel anti-ACE and anti-DPP-IV peptides were predicted by SwissTargetPrediction. Physicochemical and pharmacokinetics of peptides were predicted with SwissADME. GI digestion liberated 2853 fragments from SP. This comprised 26 known anti-ACE and 53 anti-DPP-IV peptides exhibiting high-GI-absorption, non-allergenicity, and non-toxicity. SwissTargetPrediction predicted three putative anti-ACE (GIL, DL, AK) and one putative anti-DPP-IV (IAL) peptides. Molecular docking found most of the anti-ACE peptides may be non-competitive inhibitors, whereas all anti-DPP-IV peptides likely competitive inhibitors. Twentyfive nanoseconds molecular dynamics simulation suggests the stability of these screened peptides, including the three predicted anti-ACE and one predicted anti-DPP-IV peptides. Seven dipeptides resembling approved oral-bioavailable peptide drugs in physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties were revealed: AY, CF, EF, TF, TY, VF, and VY. In conclusion, our study presented in silico evidence for SP being a promising source of bioavailable and safe anti-ACE and anti-DPP-IV peptides following GI digestions.

description: Membrane-type Acoustic Metamaterials (MAMs) have demonstrated unusual capacity in controlling low-frequency sound transmission/reflection. In this paper, an analytical vibroacoustic membrane model is developed to study sound transmission behavior of the MAM under a normal incidence. The MAM is composed of a prestretched elastic membrane with attached rigid masses. To accurately capture finite-dimension rigid mass effects on the membrane deformation, the point matching approach is adopted by applying a set of distributed point forces along the interfacial boundary between masses and the membrane. The accuracy and capability of the theoretical model is verified through the comparison with the finite element method. In particular, microstructure effects such as weight, size and eccentricity of the attached mass, pretension and thickness of the membrane on the resulting transmission peak and dip frequencies of the MAM are quantitatively investigated. New peak and dip frequencies are found for the MAM with one and multiple eccentric attached masses. The developed model can be served as an efficient tool for design of such membrane-type metamaterials.
Multiple argument marking in Bantoid: from syntheticity to analyticity
Creators: name: Hyman, Larry M.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2017

description: This paper addresses the mechanisms of change that lead from syntheticity to analyticity in the Bantoid languages of the Nigeria-Cameroon borderland area. I address the different strategies that are adopted as these languages lose applicative “verb extensions” found elsewhere in Bantu and Niger-Congo. I show that although historical recipient, benefactive, and instrumental applicative marking on verbs allowed multiple object noun phrases (send-APPL chief letter, cook-APPL child rice, cut-APPL knife meat), they have been replaced by adpositional phrases and/or serial verb constructions in all branches of Bantoid. I map out the different analytic strategies that have been adopted and reconstruct the original verbal, nominal and pronominal sources of the different grammaticalization processes. Of particular interest is the development of a recipient/benefactive preposition ‘to, for’ from the word for ‘hand’ and a comitative/instrumental preposition ‘with’ from a third person plural pronoun.
Tonal placement in Tashlhiyt: How an intonation system accommodates to adverse phonological environments
Creators: name: Roettger, Timo B.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2017

description: In most languages, words contain vowels, elements of high intensity with rich harmonic structure, enabling the perceptual retrieval of pitch. By contrast, in Tashlhiyt, a Berber language, words can be composed entirely of voiceless segments. When an utterance consists of such words, the phonetic opportunity for the execution of intonational pitch movements is exceptionally limited. This book explores in a series of production and perception experiments how these typologically rare phonotactic patterns interact with intonational aspects of linguistic structure. It turns out that Tashlhiyt allows for a tremendously flexible placement of tonal events. Observed intonational structures can be conceived of as different solutions to a functional dilemma: The requirement to realise meaningful pitch movements in certain positions and the extent to which segments lend themselves to a clear manifestation of these pitch movements.

description: We report results of a systematic study of the broad--band (2--2000 keV) time--resolved prompt emission spectra of a sample of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) detected with both the Wide Field Cameras (WFCs) aboard the BeppoSAX satellite and the BATSE experiment aboard CGRO. The main goal of the paper is to test spectral models of the GRB prompt emission that have recently been proposed. In particular, we test the photospheric model proposed by Ryde and Pe'er (2009), i.e., blackbody plus power--law, the addition of a blackbody emission to the Band function in the cases in which this function does not fit the data, and the Comptonization model developed by Titarchuk et al. (2012). By considering the few spectra for which the simple Band function does not provide a fully acceptable fit to the data (Frontera et al. 2012), only in one case we find a statistically significant better fit by adding a blackbody to this function. We confirm the results found fitting the BATSE spectra alone with a blackbody plus a power law. Instead when the BATSE GRB spectra are joined to those obtained with WFCs (2--28 keV), this model becomes unacceptable in most of time intervals in which we subdivide the GRB light curves. We find instead that the Comptonization model is always acceptable, even in the few cases in which the Band function is inconsistent with the data. We discuss the implications of these results.
