description: We study the coupling of MSSM fields to heavy modes through cubic superpotential interactions in F-theory SU(5) GUTs. The couplings are calculated by integrating the overlap of two massless and one massive wavefunctions. The overlap integral receives contributions from only a small patch around a point of symmetry enhancement thereby allowing the wavefunctions to be determined locally on flat space, drastically simplifying the calculation. The cubic coupling between two MSSM fields and one of the massive coloured Higgs triplets present in SU(5) GUTs is calculated using a local eight-dimensional SO(12) gauge theory. We find that for the most natural regions of local parameter space the coupling to the triplet is comparable to or stronger than in minimal four-dimensional GUTs thereby, for those regions, reaffirming or strengthening constraints from dimension-five proton decay. We also identify possible regions in local parameter space where the couplings to the lightest generations are substantially suppressed compared to minimal four-dimensional GUTs. We further apply our results and techniques to study other phenomenologically important operators arising from coupling to heavy modes. In particular we calculate within a toy model flavour non-universal soft masses induced by integrating out heavy modes which lead to FCNCs.

description: We obtain an exact solution for the motion of a particle driven by a spring in a Brownian random-force landscape, the Alessandro-Beatrice-Bertotti-Montorsi (ABBM) model. Many experiments on quasi-static driving of elastic interfaces (Barkhausen noise in magnets, earthquake statistics, shear dynamics of granular matter) exhibit the same universal behavior as this model. It also appears as a limit in the field theory of elastic manifolds. Here we discuss predictions of the ABBM model for monotonous, but otherwise arbitrary, time-dependent driving. Our main result is an explicit formula for the generating functional of particle velocities and positions. We apply this to derive the particle-velocity distribution following a quench in the driving velocity. We also obtain the joint avalanche size and duration distribution and the mean avalanche shape following a jump in the position of the confining spring. Such non-stationary driving is easy to realize in experiments, and provides a way to test the ABBM model beyond the stationary, quasi-static regime. We study extensions to two elastically coupled layers, and to an elastic interface of internal dimension d, in the Brownian force landscape. The effective action of the field theory is equal to the action, up to 1-loop corrections obtained exactly from a functional determinant. This provides a connection to renormalization-group methods.

description: We propose a model for inflation consisting of an axionic scalar field coupled to a set of three non-Abelian gauge fields. Our model's novel requirement is that the gauge fields begin inflation with a rotationally invariant vacuum expectation value (VEV) that is preserved through identification of SU(2) gauge invariance with rotations in three dimensions. The gauge VEV interacts with the background value of the axion, leading to an attractor solution that exhibits slow roll inflation even when the axion decay constant has a natural value ($

Iconic turn. Alcune chiavi di svolta
Creators: name: Alloa, Emanuele
Publisher: name: Lebenswelt. Aesthetics and philosophy of experience.
Year: 2012

description: Two decades after the “iconic turn” has been proclaimed, it still remains uncertain whether that expression catches a paradigm shift which has actually taken place or whether it only yet calls forth for it to happen. The essay takes a look at the different ways in which the expression might be understood, referring either to a kind of visual thinking, a disciplinary self-reflection or a epistemic meta-discourse. The success of the expression goes hand in hand, so it seems, with the uncertainty of its status, as still today, it is by no means evident to question the evidence of the image. Against the verdict of the philologist Ernst Robert Curtius, still echoing today, who claimed that, in contrast with the science of text, “the science of images is easy”, the essay advocates for three ‘turns of the screw’ in order to make image theory ‘more difficult’: the turn from an iconology to a    symptomatology, from extensive to intensive and from indicative to conjunctive.

title: DEPREACTED: Quality Assurance of Cervical Smear Slide Inspection Using a Novel Eye-Tracking Technique
Creators: name: Coombes, Lee Roy
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2004

description: A novel objective quality assurance system for smear slide screening is investigated in this thesis. A method of data validation was developed that compares data from an eye tracked image display, machine image colour texture analysis and expert judgements in a statistical manner to identify salient areas of cervical cytological images. These data are used to construct screener performance profiles, which have been compared to screener experience. The experimental methodology is described and how the screener performance profile is constructed. Results from a study of 10 screeners, checkers and pathologists are presented showing predicted trends of human performance. Relations to experience and strategy are also shown, though these relationships are not statistically significant. A standardised quality assurance test is developed that profiles screeners across many performance measures. Highly significant correlations were found between fixation saliency and machine colour texture (maxima density), though fixation saliency suffers from a lack of a significant statistical basis. Further fixation data is needed, however if it conforms to the existing trends then the results would support the new data validation method as a framework from which image analysis techniques applied to cytology may be objectively tested. Furthermore, this new approach to cervical cytology quality assurance would have the potential to further reduce human errors in the cervical smear inspection process by lowering levels of observer variation found in all aspects of the cervical screening process.

description: We propose and study a model of polymer chains in a bilayer. Each chain is confined in one of the layers and polymer bonds on first neighbor edges in different layers interact. We also define and comment results for a model with interactions between monomers on first neighbor sites of different layers. The thermodynamic properties of the model are studied in the grand-canonical formalism and both layers are considered to be Cayley trees. In the core region of the trees, which we may call a bilayer Bethe lattice, we find a very rich phase diagram in the parameter space defined by the two activities of monomers and the Boltzmann factor associated to the interlayer interaction between bonds or monomers. Beside critical and coexistence surfaces, there are tricritical, bicritical and critical endpoint lines, as well as higher order multicritical points.

description: We build the wrapped Fukaya category W(E) for any monotone symplectic manifold, convex at infinity. We define the open-closed and closed open-string maps. We study their algebraic properties and prove that the string maps are compatible with the eigenvalue splitting of W(E). We extend Abouzaid's generation criterion from the exact to the monotone setting. We construct an acceleration functor from the compact Fukaya category which on Hochschild (co)homology commutes with the string maps and the canonical map from quantum cohomology QH(E) to symplectic cohomology SH(E). We define the QH(E)- and SH(E)-module structure on the Hochschild (co)homology of W(E) which is compatible with the string maps. The module and unital algebra structures, and the generation criterion, also hold for the compact Fukaya category F(E), and also hold for closed monotone symplectic manifolds. As an application, we show that the wrapped category of any monotone negative line bundle over any projective space is proper (cohomologically finite). For any monotone negative line bundle E over a toric Fano variety, we show that SH(E) is non-trivial and that W(E) contains an essential non-displaceable monotone Lagrangian torus.

Male intersive care nurses' experiences in taking care of dying patients
Creators: name: Wu, Tammy W.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Male nurses can bring energy and knowledge along with diverse beliefs and values to their workplaces. When taking care of dying patients, male ICU nurses may also have an array of issues concerning comfort care, and their unique ways of coping with stress that can accompany such events. Male ICU nurses also have distinct ways for maintaining their well-being and for sustaining their masculine ideals when caring for dying patients and working in a female-dominated environment. Many research studies have focused on how nurses care for dying patients, but few studies have explored the experiences of male ICU nurses caring for dying patients. The current study addresses this significant knowledge gap and provides valuable insights on how male ICU nurses connect masculine ideals with stress coping strategies in a female-dominated environment. Using an interpretive descriptive qualitative approach, this study provides understandings of male ICU nurses’ struggles and feelings when they witness their patients’ death. The findings indicated that most participants drew on masculine ideals to act as providers in meeting the needs of the patients and their families. That said, most participants also transgressed some masculine ideals by expressing their feelings, such as shedding tears at the bedside and talking about their emotions to help reduce stress. Many participants also reported appreciating their life and their families more after witnessing patients’ death. They also used effective strategies to cope with the stress in their lives and workplace. Furthermore, participants believed that they were equals to the female nurses both in terms of competency and in their ability to care for patients and families. Finally, this study also enhances opportunity to learn how to increase understanding in supporting male ICU nurses at their workplaces.
title: Aristotle's concept of lexis : a theory of language and style

publisherIdentifier: https://ror.org/02wn5qz54
publisherIdentifierScheme: ROR

description: Aristotle’s concept of lexis has been discussed by numerous scholars, yet no comprehensive account of lexis has been produced so far. To fill this gap in scholarship, this thesis offers a systematic analysis of Aristotle’s concept of lexis by dividing it into three levels, which allow a step-by-step approach to understanding this multi-layered concept. By considering Plato’s and Isocrates’ thoughts on lexis, Chapter 1 outlines the intellectual context in which Aristotle’s ideas on the concept of lexis developed. Chapters 2-5 focus on the three levels of lexis and Chapter 6 brings a concluding discussion of metaphor. In Chapter 2 the linguistic elements treated under the notion of lexis and Aristotle’s theory of language are delineated. These not only present Aristotle’s thoughts on language as an abstract system, but they also form the most fundamental level upon which the remainder of Aristotle’s thoughts on the concept of lexis are based. Chapter 3 explores Aristotle’s remarks regarding individuals’ use of linguistic elements as determined by sociolinguistic factors. Aristotle’s occasional statements about language usage within the concept of lexis provide valuable pieces of evidence for studies in sociolinguistics and for his ideas on lexis on its third level as discussed in Chapters 4 and 5. In Chapter 4 the intra-textual aspect of Aristotle’s remarks on lexis as a means for the creation of different kinds of poetry and rhetoric, i.e. lexis as technē, is examined. In Chapter 5 extra-textual factors are considered and are followed by a discussion of the purpose and function of lexis on its third level. Chapter 6 concludes the discussion of lexis by focusing on metaphor, the linguistic and stylistic element par excellence treated under the notion of lexis, which further highlights the benefits of a three-level approach to Aristotle’s concept of lexis.
Mito e le visioni musicali di Antonio Buero Vallejo
Creators: name: Ferrante, Giada
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2012

description: Nel corso della sua attività drammaturgica Antonio Buero Vallejo si confrontò con la scrittura di un unico «libreto para una ópera», intitolato Mito.
Il libretto non fu mai musicato, ma venne pubblicato nel 1968 sulle pagine della rivista Primer Acto, preceduto da una breve introduzione dell’autore. Nel 1976, Mito apparve in un’edizione Espasa- Calpe curata da Francisco García Pavón, inseme a La doble historia del Doctor Valmy. 
Basandosi su quest’ultima pubblicazione, fedele al testo originale, l’articolo indaga la scrittura di Buero, attraverso una sistematica analisi delle didascalie e della costruzione dialogica dell’opera, evidenziando i numerosi suggerimenti musicali del drammaturgo. 
Dopo una breve introduzione all’opera, si esaminano nel dettaglio gli interventi dell’autore, cercando di rintracciare i diversi ambiti musicali entro cui si muove Buero, per poi arrivare a mostrare la possibile alternanza di un sistema musicale tonale e un sistema musicale dodecafonico.
La scrittura musicale sottesa a «Mito» testimonia della spiccata sensibilità del drammaturgo, permettendo di affermare che Buero concepì il testo in forma musicata, fin dalle prime fasi della sua stesura, sostituendosi, in molti casi, all’eventuale compositore, fino a proporre originali e suggestive soluzioni sonore che questo articolo si prefigge di delineare.

During his dramatic activity, Antonio Buero Vallejo measured himself with the writing of a single «libreto para una ópera», entitled Mito.
This libretto was never set to music, but was published in 1968 in Primer Acto, preceded by a brief introduction of the author. In 1976 Mito appeared in an Espasa-Calpe volume, edited by Francisco García Pavón, together with La doble historia del Doctor Valmy. 
Based on this edition, true to the original text, the article investigates Buero’s writing through a methodical analysis of the stage directions and the dialogical construction of the text, highlighting the many musical suggestions of the playwright.
After a brief introduction to Buero’s work, the article studies in detail the interventions of the author, trying to trace the different musical areas within which Buero moves and finally showing the possible oscillation between a tonal and a dodecaphonic musical system.
The musical writing implicit in Mito, attests the strong sensibility of the playwright and allows to say that Buero conceived the libretto as a musical text since the early stages of its composition, taking the place of the composer, in many cases, and getting to suggest original and interesting sound solutions that this article aims to trace out.

description: When one splits spacetime into space plus time, the Weyl curvature tensor (vacuum Riemann tensor) gets split into two spatial, symmetric, and trace-free (STF) tensors: (i) the Weyl tensor's so-called "electric" part or tidal field, and (ii) the Weyl tensor's so-called "magnetic" part or frame-drag field. Being STF, the tidal field and frame-drag field each have three orthogonal eigenvector fields which can be depicted by their integral curves. We call the integral curves of the tidal field's eigenvectors tendex lines, we call each tendex line's eigenvalue its tendicity, and we give the name tendex to a collection of tendex lines with large tendicity. The analogous quantities for the frame-drag field are vortex lines, their vorticities, and vortexes. We build up physical intuition into these concepts by applying them to a variety of weak-gravity phenomena: a spinning, gravitating point particle, two such particles side by side, a plane gravitational wave, a point particle with a dynamical current-quadrupole moment or dynamical mass-quadrupole moment, and a slow-motion binary system made of nonspinning point particles.

description: We analyze a family of measures of general quantum correlations for composite systems, defined in terms of the bipartite entanglement necessarily created between systems and apparatuses during local measurements. For every entanglement monotone $E$, this operational correspondence provides a different measure $Q_E$ of quantum correlations. Examples of such measures are the relative entropy of quantumness, the quantum deficit, and the negativity of quantumness. In general, we prove that any so defined quantum correlation measure is always greater than (or equal to) the corresponding entanglement between the subsystems, $Q_E \ge E$, for arbitrary states of composite quantum systems. We analyze qualitatively and quantitatively the flow of correlations in iterated measurements, showing that general quantum correlations and entanglement can never decrease along von Neumann chains, and that genuine multipartite entanglement in the initial state of the observed system always gives rise to genuine multipartite entanglement among all subsystems and all measurement apparatuses at any level in the chain. Our results provide a comprehensive framework to understand and quantify general quantum correlations in multipartite states.

description: We have formulated and experimentally demonstrated an improved algorithm for design of arbitrary two-dimensional holographic traps for ultracold atoms. Our method builds on the best previously available algorithm, MRAF, and improves on it in two ways. First, it allows for creation of holographic atom traps with a well defined background potential. Second, we experimentally show that for creating trapping potentials free of fringing artifacts it is important to go beyond the Fourier approximation in modelling light propagation. To this end, we incorporate full Helmholtz propagation into our calculations.

A Method to Simulate Non-Stationary Vehicle Interior Wind Noise
Creators: name: Yu, Jinghe
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 401701
subject: Acoustics and noise control (excl. architectural acoustics)

description: As speeds and directions of the vehicle and wind change, the unsteady flow creates variations in wind noise, which can be referred to as non-stationary wind noise. To investigate people's perceptions of non-stationary wind noise, a method to simulate the non-stationary wind noise is needed. Previously, a method was developed that used stationary recordings taken at several wind speeds and directions to form functions that relate the 1/3 octave sound pressure level with wind speed and direction. These functions are used to create time-varying filters based on provided time histories of wind speed and direction. A reference wind noise measurement is then filtered to produce the sounds. To reduce the time cost of taking many stationary measurements, an improved method was investigated. At each yaw angle, one speed sweep wind tunnel measurement was used to estimate the relationship between sound pressure level and wind speed. Two partially correlated white noise signals were then filtered to simulate binaural sounds that had a similar coherence structure between the left and right ear sounds to that observed in binaural measurements in the vehicle. The accuracy of the simulations was validated by comparing wind noise simulations with wind tunnel and on-road vehicle interior noise measurements. For the on-road measurements, a noise decomposition method based on noise source measurements was used to estimate the road/tire noise, which was then added to the simulated wind noise to make it comparable with the measured on-road noise. The time-varying loudness, and power spectral densities of the simulated and measured sounds were found to be well consistent. Besides, a method to simulate the turbulent wind speed time histories, which can be used as inputs to the wind noise simulation method, was developed. The von Karman model predicts the spectra of wind turbulence by assuming it to be a stationary random process. White noise signals can then be filtered to simulate the stable variations of wind speeds. The discrete gusts, which are the transient events in wind speed time histories, were also simulated by using an 8-parameter piecewise function. Eventually, the non-stationary wind noise and the turbulent wind speed simulation method can be a powerful tool when investigating sound perceptions of vehicle interior wind noise.
La vida invisible ed El séptimo velo di Juan Manuel de Prada: quando echi e geometrie divengono formule

description: Il presente articolo vorrebbe mostrare, soffermandosi soprattutto sull’analisi dei romanzi La vida invisible (2003) e El séptimo velo (2007), come la traiettoria letteraria di Juan Manuel de Prada sia nel fondo frutto di una progressiva sedimentazione di tic stilistici, metafore, similitudini, immagini e personaggi che ricorrono sistematicamente nei suoi libri, finendo per dare vita a universi chiusi, retti su archetipi che, con la loro fissità, offuscano il brillante stile barocco dell’autore e mettono a nudo una certa serialità delle vicende narrate.

The aim of this article is to show, through the analysis of the novels La vida invisible and El séptimo velo, how the whole literary work of Juan Manuel de Prada –one of the most acclaimed spanish writers born in the Seventies– is based on a progressive sedimentation of stylistic devices, metaphors, similes, images and characters. As a consequence, the literary worlds that he creates in his books are claustrophobic and rely on archetypes that, because of their shared traits, undermine the brilliance of his baroque style and reveal some repetitiveness in the elaboration of plots and situations.

Delinea quindi tutta la produzione d’ispirazione africana dell’autore, concentrandosi sul testo chiave, strutturato come viaggio, «En el país de los bubis» (1920), di cui analizza la materia autobiografica ed etnografica, i tratti stilistici e la strategia narrativa delle diverse parti, nonché la componente ideologica.

This article traces the critical reception of the work of José Más (1885-1941) and the current revival of interest due to its pioneering role in colonial writing on Equatorial Guinea, in particular the island of Fernando Poo. It outlines all African-inspired books of the author, focusing on the basic text, structured as a journey, ‘En el país de los bubis’ (1920), which analyzes the autobiographical and ethnographic material, the stylistic features and narrative strategy of its varied parts as well as the ideological component.

Fare dell’Africa un nuovo Brasile. Letteratura e retorica coloniale nell’Ottocento portoghese
Creators: name: Russo, Vincenzo

Year: 2012

description: La costruzione di una retorica coloniale per un paese come il Portogallo alla fine del Diciannovesimo secolo non può prescindere dalla sua storia coloniale né dalle nuove contingenze storico-politiche europee e internazionali: l’indipendenza del Brasile (1822), la “corsa all’Africa”, l’imperialismo di nuove e vecchie potenze europee, il Congresso di Berlino, l’Ultimatum dell’Inghilterra al Portogallo (1890). La narrativa portoghese, anche quella non di classica ispirazione coloniale, traduce in un vasto archivio di rappresentazioni – spesso originale o almeno differente rispetto alle retoriche europee – l’Africa come spazio mitografico.

The construction of Portuguese colonial rhetoric at the end of the nineteenth century is closely linked to the colonial history of the nation and the new international political and historical contingencies: the independence of Brazil (1822), the “scramble for Africa”, the old and new imperialism of European powers, the Congress of Berlin, the British Ultimatum to Portugal (1890). The nineteenth-century Portuguese novel, even that is not inspired by the imperial novels, translated Africa as a mythographic space into a vast archive of representations, often original or, at least, different from the rhetoric of Europe.

description: Eine erfolgreiche Energiewende setzt nicht nur Innovationen voraus, sondern erfordert auch eine aktive Exnovation der fossilen Energieerzeugung. Die vorliegende Masterarbeit zielt deshalb darauf ab, Herausforderungen und Ansatzpunkte für eine Verständigung zwischen Gewerkschaften und Umweltverbänden zur der Zukunft Kohleenergie zu untersuchen. Leitend sind zwei Fragen: Erstens und empirisch: Welche Argumente vertreten Umweltverbände und Gewerkschaften hinsichtlich eines Kohleausstiegs? Zweitens und verbunden mit der gewählten theoretischen Perspektive der Sozialen Ökologie: Welche Bezogenheiten und Trennungen werden zwischen den jeweiligen Verständnissen von Natur, Gesellschaft und Ökonomie in den Argumenten der Akteure sichtbar? Dafür wurde im theoretischen Teil der Arbeit eine sozial-ökologische Perspektive auf die energetische Kohlenutzung und das sogenannte Jobs versus Environment Dilemma erarbeitet. Im empirischen Teil werden mittels einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse über 100 Veröffentlichungen verschiedener Gewerkschaften und Umweltverbände aus dem Zeitraum von Ende 2014 (erster politischer Vorstoß zur Reduzierung der Kohleverstromung) bis Anfang 2019 (Ende der Kommission "Wachstum, Strukturwandel und Beschäftigung") ausgewertet. Als Ergebnis legt die Arbeit die Argumente der Akteure vergleichend dar, zeigt auf, wie sich diese im Verlauf des Untersuchungszeitraums verändern und welche Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede, Annäherungen und Distanzierungen zwischen den einzelnen Akteuren und Akteursgruppen bestehen. Darauf aufbauend wird der Umgang der Akteure mit dem Jobs versus Environment Dilemma aus der Perspektive der Sozialen Ökologie diskutiert und verglichen. Die Erkenntnisse der Forschungsarbeit legen nahe, dass der gewerkschaftliche Ansatz von Just Transition bzw. "gerechtem" Strukturwandel mit Klima- und Umweltgerechtigkeitskonzepten verknüpft werden muss, um einen umfassenden inter- und intragenerationellen Gerechtigkeitsanspruch zu erfüllen. Damit der Kohleausstieg und weitere Exnovationsprozesse als sozial-ökologische Transformation gestaltet werden können, ist es notwendig, sowohl die aktuelle ökonomische Abhängigkeit von Arbeitenden in betroffenen Branchen zu verstehen als auch den Klimawandel nicht nur als ökologische, sondern auch als soziale und ökonomische Frage anzuerkennen.

description: Günümüzde büyük çoğunluğu kıyı seyri yapan amatör denizciler, klasik anlamda mevki tayinine genelde ihtiyaç duymamaktadırlar. Çünkü android cihazlara indirilen mevcut navigasyon yazılımları (appleri) ihtiyaçlarına fazlasıyla yetmektedir. Ancak yakın uzaklıklara mesafe tayinine zaman zaman ihtiyaçları olabilmektedir. Fakat kıyı seyrine özgü uygulanagelen klasik mesafe tayin yöntemleri, amatör denizciler için pek kullanışlı olamamaktadırlar. Bu nedenle mesafe göz ile tahmin edilmeye çalışılmakta, fakat özellikle yeni başlayan amatör denizcilerde bu tahminler büyük hata payları içerebilmektedir.  İşbu makalede önce klasik mesafe tayin yöntemlerinin teorik temelleri irdelenmekte ve neden amatör denizciler için elverişli olmadıklarına dair yorum getirilmektedir. Ardından özellikle yelkenli teknelerle seyir yapan amatör denizciler için, yakın uzaklıklara (150 metreler civarı) mesafe tayinini yeterli bir hata payıyla mümkün kılan pratik bir yeni yöntem tanıtılmaktadır. Yöntemin esası kıyı çizgisinin satıhla oluşturduğu hattın, yelken direğinde gözlenen izdüşümüne dayanmaktadır. Yöntemin teorik izahının yanısıra, 9 metrelik bir yelkenli teknedeki gerçek uygulaması ve test edilmesi ayrıntılı olarak anlatılmaktadır. Makale Türk Denizci Dilinin yaşamasına katkı sağlamak düşüncesiyle özellikle Türkçe olarak kaleme alınmıştır.
description: Nowadays, amateur sailors, most of whom do coastal cruising, generally do not need position determination in the classical sense. Because the existing navigation software (apps) downloaded to Android devices are more than sufficient for their needs. However, they may sometimes need distance determination for close distances. However, classical distance determination methods used for coastal navigation are not very useful for amateur sailors. For this reason, distance is tried to be estimated by eye, but these estimates may contain large margins of error, especially for beginner amateur sailors. In this article, the theoretical foundations of classical distance determination methods are first examined and comments are made on why they are not suitable for amateur sailors. Then, a practical new method is introduced that enables distance determination at close distances (around 150 meters) with a sufficient margin of error, especially for amateur sailors cruising on sailboats. The essence of the method is based on the projection of the line formed by the shoreline with the surface, observed on the sail mast. In addition to the theoretical explanation of the method, its actual application and testing on a 9-meter sailboat is explained in detail. The article was written especially in Turkish with the idea of contributing to the survival of the Turkish Sailor Language.
Spontaneous Generation of Photons in Transmission of Quantum Fields in PT Symmetric Optical Systems

description: We develop a rigorous mathematically consistent description of PT symmetric optical systems by using second quantization. We demonstrate the possibility of significant spontaneous generation of photons in PT symmetric systems. Further we show the emergence of Hanbury-Brown Twiss (HBT) correlations in spontaneous generation. We show that the spontaneous generation determines decisively the nonclassical nature of fields in PT symmetric systems. Our work can be applied to other systems like plasmonic structure where losses are compensated by gain mechanisms.

Fragmentación y descorporización del yo en la poesía de Alejandra Pizarnik

Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Milano

description: El artículo que se presenta a continuación propone una aproximación a la lírica de Alejandra Pizarnik a partir del análisis estilístico computacional del corpus de su poesía completa. En particular, aprovechando algunas aportaciones críticas sobre la obra de la autora argentina, se indagan las formas de la representación de un sujeto poético dominante, que se construye a través de la colisión entre las dimensiones lacerantes de la muerte y la corporeidad para engendrar la imagen fragmentada de una individualidad escindida y contradictoria. Las modalidades discursivas mediante las cuales se lleva a cabo dicha representación se exploran a raíz de indicios reveladores como el uso peculiar de los pronombres personales o de las localizaciones espaciales, observados según un enfoque diacrónico que permita contemplar la evolución poética de una autora cuya obra oscila constantemente entre el impulso autorreferencial y la sublimación estética.

The following paper proposes an approach to Alejandra Pizarnik’s poetry based on the quantitative stylistic analysis of the corpus of her complete poetical works. In particular, exploiting some critical studies about the work of the Argentinian poet, it investigates the forms of the representation of a prevailing poetic subject, that is built through a collision between the painful conditions of death and corporeity in order to breed the fragmented image of a split and contradictory individuality. The discursive modalities through which this representation is pursued are explored through the study of a distinctive use of personal pronouns and spatial localizations, that are observed in a diachronic perspective with the intention of considering the poetic evolution of a writer whose work constantly wavers between the autobiographical urge and the aesthetic sublimation.

Development of a classification scale for arm use following stroke
Creators: name: Simpson, Lisa Ann
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Introduction and Purpose Understanding upper extremity functional recovery following stroke requires knowledge of how individuals use their upper extremity in the home and community settings. Currently, there are no measures that provide a rich description about the types of activities and manner in which they are performed by the affected upper extremity. This study aimed to develop and validate a classification scale that captures UE use following stroke. Objectives 1. To conduct a systematic review of existing research on the ability of UE function and UE use measures following stroke to capture important, observed and detectable change. 2. To develop a new classification tool, Rating of Everyday Arm-use in the Community and Home (REACH) scale, that captures UE use and to assess the interrater reliability and validity of the new tool. Methods Design: This study used multiple methods to achieve the stated objectives. A systematic review methodology that reviewed 68 articles covering 14 measures was employed. Development of the REACH scale utilized focus groups to acquire client, clinician, and caregiver perspectives. Evaluation of interrater reliability involved a test-retest design with different raters. Hypothesis testing was used to assess the validity of the REACH scale. Participants: Focus groups included clinicians (n=13), participants with stroke (n=16), and caregivers (n=4). Individuals with stroke living in the community participated in the evaluation of the REACH scale (n=96). Measures: Responsiveness indices were extracted and calculated from the included articles for the systematic review. The following measures were used to evaluate the REACH scale: Motor Activity Log, activity counts captured by accelerometers, Action Research Arm Test, Stroke Impact Scale – hand subscale, Chedoke-McMaster Stroke Assessment (Arm Recovery, Hand Recovery, and Shoulder pain scales). Results The REACH scale, informed by literature and user consultation, takes 5 minutes to administer. The intraclass correlation coefficient and weighted kappa for interrater reliability was 0.96 and 0.91 respectively. Strong relationships were observed between the REACH scores and external measures of UE use, UE function and UE impairment (ρ=0.91-0.94). Conclusions The REACH scale provides an accessible and efficient tool for measuring UE use following stroke.
