Readings in historico-geographical materialism
Creators: name: Castree, Noel
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: As the twentieth century comes to a close Marxism, as an intellectual and political force, is widely considered to be in a state of terminal decline. In the English-speaking world Marxism is often seen as essentially an economistic discourse, unable to deal with questions of power and subjectivity that have recently become the focus of so much academic concern. In this thesis I contest that view by exploring the cultural theory contained in David Harvey's 'historico-geographical materialism'. Harvey, perhaps the leading exponent of geographically inflected materialist analysis, has produced a considerable amount of work exploring how capital entails a particular mode of sociation that is consequential for our very subjectivities. Yet his work, I contend, is little understood. In an account that is both exegetical and critical I seek to illuminate the central aspects of Harvey’s interventions into the cultural realm and suggest the limits of his contrual of what I call 'the subject of capital' in making sense of the complexities of late twentieth century societies. As such this thesis is more than simply a meditation on the work of one individual. It is also a critical investigation of a particular kind of Marxism -'classical' Marxism - and an evaluation of where, today, that venerable problematic leaves those trying to make sense of our subjection in contemporary society.

description: In this work, we investigate the quasinormal modes for a massive scalar field with a nonminimal coupling with gravity in the spacetime of a loop quantum black hole, known as the Self-Dual Black Hole. In this way, we have calculated the characteristic frequencies using the 3rd order WKB approach, where we can verify a strong dependence with the mass of scalar field, the parameter of nonminimal coupling with gravity, and parameters of the Loop Quantum Gravity. From our results, we can check that the Self-Dual Black Hole is stable under the scalar perturbations when assuming small values for the parameters. Also, such results tell us that the quasinormal modes assume different values for the cases where the mass of field is null and the nonminimal coupling assumes $ξ=0$ and $ξ=1/6$, i.e., a possible breaking of the conformal invariance can be seen in the context of loop quantum black holes.

description: Studies in Land and Credit in Ancient Athens 500-200 B.C.: The Horos Inscriptions was published by Rutgers University Press in 1952 and was reprinted with a new introduction by Paul Millett by Transaction Books in
1985. The book is unlike Finley’s other books, which were based on lectures.
The World of Odysseus had its origins in a series of lectures given
at Bryn Mawr College. Democracy Ancient and Modern was based on the
Mason Welch Gross Lectures given in New Brunswick, New Jersey in
April 1972. 5 The Ancient Economy was the publication of Finley’s Sather
Lectures given at the University of California, Berkeley in the Winter
Quarter of 1972. Ancient Slavery and Modern Ideology was based on four lectures presented at the Collège de France in November and December 1978. Politics in the Ancient World was the publication of his Wiles Lectures delivered at the Queen’s University, Belfast in May 1980.8 All of these works were written for the general public and address broad, general topics in Ancient History: there is little detailed analysis of the ancient sources, and the bibliographies in some cases contain few items.

description: The g_{YM} perturbed, non supersymmetric extension of the dual single matrix description of 1/2 BPS states, within the Hilbert space reduction to the oscillator subsector associated with chiral primaries is considered. This matrix model is described in terms of a single hermitean matrix. It is found that, apart from a trivial shift in the energy, the large N background, spectrum and interaction of invariant states are independent of g_{YM}. This property applies to more general D terms.

description: We place observational constraints on two models within a class of scenarios featuring an elastic interaction between dark energy and dark matter that only produces momentum exchange up to first order in cosmological perturbations. The first one corresponds to a perfect-fluid model of the dark components with an explicit interacting Lagrangian, where dark energy acts as a dark radiation at early times and behaves as a cosmological constant at late times. The second one is a dynamical dark energy model with a dark radiation component, where the momentum exchange covariantly modifies the conservation equations in the dark sector. Using Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO), and Supernovae type Ia (SnIa) data, we show that the Hubble tension can be alleviated due to the additional radiation, while the $σ_8$ tension present in the $Λ$-Cold-Dark-Matter model can be eased by the weaker galaxy clustering that occurs in these interacting models. Furthermore, we show that, while CMB+BAO+SnIa data put only upper bounds on the coupling strength, adding low-redshift data in the form of a constraint on the parameter $S_8$ strongly favours nonvanishing values of the interaction parameters. Our findings are in line with other results in the literature that could signal a universal trend of the momentum exchange among the dark sector.

description: We report an analysis of the dust disk around DM~Tau, newly observed with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) at 1.3 mm. The ALMA observations with high sensitivity (8.4~$μ$Jy/beam) and high angular resolution (35~mas, 5.1~au) detect two asymmetries on the ring at $r\sim$20~au. They could be two vortices in early evolution, the destruction of a large scale vortex, or double continuum emission peaks with different dust sizes. We also found millimeter emissions with $\sim$50~$μ$Jy (a lower limit dust mass of 0.3~$M_{\rm Moon}$) inside the 3-au ring. To characterize these emissions, we modeled the spectral energy distribution (SED) of DM~Tau using a Monte Carlo radiative transfer code. We found that an additional ring at $r=$ 1~au could explain both the DM~Tau SED and the central point source. The disk midplane temperature at the 1-au ring calculated in our modeling is less than the typical water sublimation temperature of 150~K, prompting the possibility of forming small icy planets there.

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας μελέτης ήταν να εξετάσει τον τρόπο με τον οποίο νέες γυναίκες κατασκευάζουν την έννοια της ενηλικίωσης, το ρόλο διαφόρων σημείων μετάβασης στην ενηλικίωση, καθώς και το ρόλο της οικονομικής κρίσης στην επίτευξη της ενήλικης ταυτότητας. Για τον σκοπό αυτό πραγματοποιήθηκαν ατομικές συνεντεύξεις με τη συμμετοχή 18 γυναικών ηλικίας 18 έως 29 ετών. Από την ανάλυση των αποτελεσμάτων προέκυψαν τα εξής: η ενηλικίωση κατασκευάστηκε ως προσωπική αυτονομία, ως οικονομική ανεξαρτησία και ως ευθύνες. Ως προς τα μεταβατικά γεγονότα οι συμμετέχουσες κατασκεύασαν ως σημαντικά για την επίτευξη της ενηλικίωσης την οικονομική ανεξαρτησία, την ολοκλήρωση των σπουδών και την διαβίωση μακριά από τους γονείς. Τέλος, κατασκεύασαν την οικονομική κρίση είτε ως παράγοντα που θέτει εμπόδια στην ενηλικίωση είτε ως παράγοντα που διευκολύνει την επίτευξη αυτής. Τα αποτελέσματα συζητούνται υπό το πρίσμα της σύγχρονης βιβλιογραφίας.
description: The aim of this study was to examine the way in which young women construct the concept of adulthood, the role of different points of transition to adulthood, and the role of the economic crisis in achieving adult identity. For this purpose individual interviews were carried out involving 18 women aged 18-29. The analysis of the results showed that adulthood was constructed as personal autonomy, as economic independence and as responsibilities. As far as the transition events are concerned, participants have made economic independence, completion of studies and living away from their parents important for reaching adulthood. Finally, they constructed the economic crisis either as an obstacle to adulthood or as a factor facilitating it. The results are discussed in the light of modern literature.

description: This survey paper focuses on the estimation schemes in molecular communication (MC) systems. The existing studies in estimation schemes can be divided into parameter estimation (e.g., distance, diffusion coefficient, and flow velocity) and channel estimation. In this paper, we present, for the first time, a comprehensive survey on i) distance estimation, since distance is the most widely estimated parameter in current studies, ii) estimation of other parameters (i.e. the parameters excluding distance), and iii) channel estimation that focuses on the channel impulse response (CIR). Moreover, we examine the noise that may impact on the estimation performance and the metrics applied to evaluate the performance of different estimation schemes. Numerical results are provided to compare the performance of different distance estimation schemes. In addition, future research directions in parameter estimation and channel estimation are identified and discussed.

description: Recent advances in techniques for generating quantum light have stimulated research on novel spectroscopic measurements using quantum entangled photons. One such spectroscopy technique utilizes non-classical correlations among entangled photons to enable measurements with enhanced sensitivity and selectivity. Here, we investigate spectroscopic measurement utilizing entangled three photons. In this measurement, time-resolved entangled photon spectroscopy with monochromatic pumping [J. Chem. Phys. 153, 051102 (2020).] is integrated with the frequency-dispersed two-photon counting technique, which suppresses undesired accidental photon counts in the detector and thus allows one to separate the weak desired signal. This time-resolved frequency-dispersed two-photon counting signal, which is a function of two frequencies, is shown to provide the same information as that of coherent two-dimensional optical spectra. The spectral distribution of the phase-matching function works as a frequency filter to selectively resolve a specific region of the two-dimensional spectra, whereas the excited-state dynamics under investigation are temporally resolved in the time region longer than the entanglement time. The signal is not subject to Fourier limitations on the joint temporal and spectral resolution, and therefore, it is expected to be useful for investigating complex molecular systems in which multiple electronic states are present within a narrow energy range.

description: Measurements of lifetimes can be done in two ways. For very short lived particles, the width can be measured. For long lived ones, the lifetime can be directly measured, for example, using a displaced vertex. Practically, the lifetime cannot be extracted for particles with intermediate lifetimes. We show that for such cases information about the lifetime can be extracted for heavy colored particles that can be produced with known polarization. For example, a $t$-like particle with intermediate lifetime hadronizes into a superposition of the lowest two hadronic states, $T^*$ and $T$ (the equivalent of $B^*$ and $B$). Depolarization effects are governed by time scales that are much longer than the hadronization time scale, $\lqcd^{-1}$. After a time of order $1/Δm$, with $Δm \equiv m(T^*)-m(T)$, half of the initial polarization is lost. The polarization is totally lost after a time of order $1/Γ_γ$, with $Γ_γ= Γ(T^*\to Tγ)$. Thus, by comparing the initial and final polarization, we get information on the particle's lifetime.

description: The fused deposition modeling is one of the most rapidly developing 3D printing techniques, with numerous applications, also in the field of applied electrochemistry. Here, utilization of conductive polylactic acid (C-PLA) for 3D printouts is the most promising, due to its biodegradability, commercial availability, and ease of processing. To use C-PLA as an electrode material, an activation process must be performed, removing the polymer matrix and uncovering the electroactive filler. The most popular chemical or electrochemical activation routes are done in solvents. In this manuscript, we present a novel, alternative approach towards C-PLA activation with Nd:YAG (lambda = 1064 nm) laser ablation. We present and discuss the activation efficiency based on various laser source operating conditions, and the gas matrix. The XPS, contact angle, and Raman analyses were performed for evaluation of the surface chemistry and to discuss the mechanism of the activation process. The ablation process carried out in the inert gas matrix (helium) delivers a highly electroactive C-PLA electrode surface, while the resultant charge transfer process is hindered when activated in the air. This is due to thermally induced oxide layers formation. The electroanalytical performance of laser-treated C-PLA in He atmosphere was confirmed through caffeine detection, offering detection limits of 0.49 and 0.40 microM (S/N = 3) based on CV and DPV studies, respectively.
The modification of turbulent thermal wind balance by non-traditional effects

Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)

description: The meridional component of the earth's rotation is often neglected in geophysical contexts. This is referred to as the `traditional approximation' and is justified by the typically small vertical velocity and aspect ratio of such problems. Ocean fronts are regions of strong horizontal buoyancy gradient and are associated with strong vertical transport of tracers and nutrients. Given these comparatively large vertical velocities, non-traditional rotation may play a role in governing frontal dynamics. Here the effects of non-traditional rotation on a front in turbulent thermal wind balance are considered using an asymptotic approach. Solutions are presented for a general horizontal buoyancy profile and examined in the simple case of a straight front. Non-traditional effects are found to depend strongly on the direction of the front and may lead to the generation of jets and the modification of the frontal circulation and vertical transport.

The experience of teenagers living with a parent with advanced cancer
Creators: name: Brown, Jane E.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the experience of teenagers living with a parent with advanced cancer, and to determine whether the conceptualization of "fading away", as described by Davies, Chekryn-Reimer, & Martens (1990), reflects the teenagers' experience as it does the experience of children over the age of 18years in the same situation. The grounded theory approach to qualitative research was the method used in this study. Data were collected through a series of interviews with eleven teenagers who were living with a parent with advanced cancer. Initial interviews were loosely guided by a set of questions derived by Davies et al. (1990), from their previous research on the conceptualization of "fading away". Data were analyzed according to the constant comparative method of Strauss & Corbin (1990), in order to uncover core categories. The data were then in a format which could be, first, discussed within the conceptualization of "fading away", and second, compared to data from children over 18 years from the research of Davies et al. (1990). Findings revealed that living with a terminally ill parent undoubtedly had a profound emotional and physical impact on the teenagers in this study. The teenagers described the phenomenon of shielding which was a useful strategy they adopted in order to pursue the developmental tasks of adolescence, and to get on with their own lives despite the worsening situation at home. Four of the seven phenomena of the conceptualization of "fading away' reflected the experience of the teenagers and three did not. The differences between the two age groups of children could be accounted for by developmental stage. The findings from this study provide nurses with a better understanding of the experience of teenagers living with a parent with advanced cancer. It provides direction for assessing, teaching and supporting teenagers living in this type of family situation, and offers guidance for working with the parents of these teenagers. Implications for future research include further exploration of different aspects of the teenagers' experience, in-depth examination of the phenomenon of shielding with different populations of teenagers, and a recommendation for intervention studies.

description: Quantum mechanics allows for states in macroscopic superpositions, but they ordinarily undergo rapid decoherence due to interactions with their environment. A system that only interacts gravitationally, such as an arrangement of dark matter (DM), may exhibit slow decoherence. In this Letter, we compute the decoherence rate of a quantum object within general relativity, focusing on superposed metric oscillations; a rare quantum general relativistic result. For axion DM in a superposition of the field's phase, we find that DM in the Milky Way is robust against decoherence, while a spatial superposition is not. This novel phase behavior may impact direct detection experiments.

description: We establish when the two problems of minimizing a function of lifetime minimum wealth and of maximizing utility of lifetime consumption result in the same optimal investment strategy on a given open interval $O$ in wealth space. To answer this question, we equate the two investment strategies and show that if the individual consumes at the same rate in both problems -- the consumption rate is a control in the problem of maximizing utility -- then the investment strategies are equal only when the consumption function is linear in wealth on $O$, a rather surprising result. It, then, follows that the corresponding investment strategy is also linear in wealth and the implied utility function exhibits hyperbolic absolute risk aversion.

description: This master’s dissertation attempts to make it clear whether the Orthodox Church and theology of the 20th century followed or not the teaching of Saint Cyprian of Carthage „extra Ecclesiam nulla salus“ in its relations with the other Christian Churches and Confessions. Apart from the question of whether there is salvation outside the Church are also addressed a series of additional issues: a) whether the Orthodox Church has or not an exclusive attitude towards the other Christian Churches, b) If the Orthodox Church recognizes beyond her institutional limits some form of „churchiness“ and c) If she recognizes the existence of a Church outside of the Church (Ecclesia extra Ecclesiam) as well as Christians beyond her institutional limits (extra muros). The material of the research was sought in the official stances of the Orthodox Church of the 20th century (official ecclesiastical documents, declarations, statements within the World Council of the Churches, in individual positions of orthodox theologians of the 20th century around the axiom „extra Ecclesiam nulla salus“ as well as in the pre-Conciliar and official documents of the Holy and Great Council of the Orthodox Church) so that could be more fully outlined her general attitude towards the issue.

description: We review the theoretical motivations and experimental status of searches for stable massive particles (SMPs) which could be sufficiently long-lived as to be directly detected at collider experiments. The discovery of such particles would address a number of important questions in modern physics including the origin and composition of dark matter in the universe and the unification of the fundamental forces. This review describes the techniques used in SMP-searches at collider experiments and the limits so far obtained on the production of SMPs which possess various colour, electric and magnetic charge quantum numbers. We also describe theoretical scenarios which predict SMPs and the phenomenology needed to model their production at colliders and interactions with matter. In addition, the interplay between collider searches and open questions in cosmology is addressed.

If the dark matter is made up of SUSY neutralinos, the annihilation of these particles produces a characteristic spectrum of gamma rays which in principle, could be detected. The annihilation signal at different energy bands is computed and compared with the expected gamma ray background.

description: We revisit an algorithm constructing elliptic tori, that was originally designed for applications to planetary hamiltonian systems. The scheme is adapted to properly work with models of chains of $N+1$ particles interacting via anharmonic potentials, thus covering also the case of FPU chains. After having preliminarily settled the Hamiltonian in a suitable way, we perform a sequence of canonical transformations removing the undesired perturbative terms by an iterative procedure. This is done by using the Lie series approach, that is explicitly implemented in a programming code with the help of a software package, which is especially designed for computer algebra manipulations. In the cases of FPU chains with $N=4,\, 8$, we successfully apply our new algorithm to the construction of elliptic tori for wide sets of the parameter ruling the size of the perturbation, i.e., the total energy of the system. Moreover, we explore the stability regions surrounding 1D elliptic tori. We compare our semi-analytical results with those provided by numerical explorations of the FPU-model dynamics, where the latter ones are obtained by using techniques based on the so called frequency analysis. We find that our procedure works up to values of the total energy that are of the same order of magnitude with respect to the maximal ones, for which elliptic tori are detected by numerical methods.

description: We present 31 bright eclipsing contact and semi-detached binaries that showed high period change rates in a 5 year interval in observations by the All-Sky Automated Survey (ASAS). The time-scales of these changes range from only 50 up to 400 kyr. The orbital periods of 10 binaries are increasing and of 21 are decreasing, and even a larger excess is seen in contact binaries, where the numbers are 5 and 17, respectively. Period change has previously been noticed for only two of these binaries; our observations confirmed a secular period drift for SV Cen and period oscillations for VY Cet. The spectroscopic quadruple system V1084 Sco shows both period change and brightness modulation. All investigated binaries were selected from a sample of 1711 (1135 contact and 576 semi-detached) that fulfilled all criteria of data quality. We also introduce a "branch" test to check if luminosity changes on part of the binary's photosphere has led to a spurious or poorly characterized period change detection.

description: We have conducted a survey of 61 southern white dwarfs searching for magnetic fields using Zeeman spectropolarimetry. Our objective is to obtain a magnetic field distribution for these objects and, in particular, to find white dwarfs with weak fields. We found one possible candidate (WD 0310-688) that may have a weak magnetic field of -6.1+/-2.2 kG. Next, we determine the fraction and distribution of magnetic white dwarfs in the Solar neighborhood, and investigate the probability of finding more of these objects based on the current incidence of magnetism in white dwarfs within 20 pc of the Sun. We have also analyzed the spectra of the white dwarfs to obtain effective temperatures and surface gravities.

description: We study the Cardy-like limit of the superconformal index of generic $\mathcal{N}=1$ SCFTs with ABCD gauge algebra, providing strong evidence for a universal formula that captures the behavior of the index at finite order in the rank and in the fugacities associated to angular momenta. The formula extends previous results valid at lowest order, and generalizes them to generic SCFTs. We corroborate the validity of our proposal by studying several examples, beyond the well-understood toric class. We compute the index also for models without a weakly-coupled gravity dual, whose gravitational anomaly is not of order one.

description: Questo articolo si presenta come un piccolo saggio relativo all’analisi e all’utilizzo della morfologia derivazionale con i possibili risvolti applicativi per l’insegnamento dell’italiano come L2/LS. Dopo una breve introduzione alla morfologia derivazionale, vengono presi in esame tre testi, uno di ambito scientifico, uno di ambito letterario e uno di ambito giornalistico, allo scopo di mettere in evidenza aspetti della morfologia derivazionale specifici del linguaggio della medicina, della chimica, dei giornali, della letteratura e, là dove possibile, le differenze di utilizzo e di realizzazione della derivazione. La riflessione condotta sui testi analizzati consente di sottolineare come la pratica dell’‘insegnamento derivazionale’ possa consentire all’apprendente di accrescere il suo vocabolario e di conseguenza aumentare anche la sua capacità di fare inferenze e di riflettere sulla lingua.

Derivational morphology: application implications on teaching italian L2/LS

Laura Mantovani

This article focuses on the analysis and use of derivational morphology and the resulting possible application implications on teaching Italian as a L2/LS. After a brief introduction on derivational morphology, we examine three texts, one scientific, one literary and one journalistic, in order to highlight specific aspects of derivational morphology in the languages of medicine, chemistry, newspapers, literature and, where possible, the differences in the use and implementation of  derivations. Discussions of the texts analyzed underscore how the practice of "derivational" teaching allows learners to increase their vocabulary and consequently also increase their ability to make inferences and reflect on the language.

ITALIANO E SINTO LOMBARDO A CONFRONTO: SOMIGLIANZE, DIVERGENZE E PROSPETTIVE DIDATTICHE

Publisher: name: Italiano LinguaDue

description: Questo lavoro vuole mettere in luce le differenze e le analogie che intercorrono fra italiano e sinto lombardo per scoprire quali possono essere gli aspetti più problematici e le difficoltà linguistiche maggiori che possono pregiudicare una buona acquisizione dell’italiano L2 da parte di apprendenti di lingua madre sinta. Nella prima parte dell’articolo si inquadra la lingua sinta all’interno della famiglia linguistica indoeuropea e dell’ampio gruppo che racchiude le molte varianti della lingua romanì e si evidenziano la posizione del sinto lombardo e delle altre varianti della lingua romanì parlate in Italia rispetto alla legge italiana sulla tutela delle lingue minoritarie e i problemi che possono sorgere dalla non tutela di questa minoranza linguistica. Segue, nella seconda parte, l’analisi contrastiva tra italiano e sinto lombardo con paragrafi dedicati alla fonetica e alla fonologia, alla morfologia del nome, al  verbo, alla sintassi e al lessico. Questa analisi si propone di fornire informazioni agli insegnanti che hanno nelle loro classi alunni di lingua madre sinta lombarda e che spesso ignorano del tutto il loro contesto linguistico e culturale: non essendo il sinto lombardo riconosciuto e tutelato come minoranza linguistica, gli studenti sinti sono posti spesso in una posizione di svantaggio nell’acquisizione dell’italiano L2 e nello studio in generale.

A comparison of italian and sinto lombardo: similarities, differences and educational perspectives

Elena Sorrenti

This paper aims at highlighting the differences and similarities that exist between Italian and Sinto Lombardo to find out what may be the most problematic aspects and language difficulties that can affect the acquisition of L2 learners by native Sinto speakers. The first part of the article is the Sinto language is collocated within the Indo-European language family and the large group that encompasses the many variants of the Romani language, showing the location of Sinto speakers Lombardy and speakers of the other variants of the Romani language spoken in Italy with respect to the Italian law on the protection of minority languages and the problems that can arise from the non-protection of this minority language. In the second part, a contrastive analysis between Italian and Sinto Lombardo features sections on phonetics and phonology, morphology of the name, the verb, syntax and lexicon. This analysis aims to provide information to teachers who have mother tongue Sinto Lombardo speaking students in their classes. The teachers are often unaware of the linguistic and cultural context of these students: and since Sinto Lombardo is not recognized and protected as a minority language, these students are often at a disadvantage in the acquisition of L2 and studying in general.

Einfluss der Kompaktierung auf die Elektrodenmikrostruktur und elektrochemische Performance bei Lithium-Ionen-Zellen

description: Due to their technological advantages, lithium-ion-batteries have been established in stationary and mobile applications. In general, for electrochemical storage systems, there is a fundamental conflict between high energy density and temporal high power density for different applications. During the electrode production process, the material- and process-related parameters define the resulting cell properties. In the last step of the electrode manufacturing, the compaction process, a high volume fraction of active material is targeted at the expense of internal porosity. In contrast, porosity is essential for the cell functionality, especially for kinetic requirements. Thus, tailoring the microstructure of the electrode active material results in an effcient design for different applications. The present work aims at investigating and correlating the microstructural changes by active mass compaction with the resulting electrochemical properties. For technologically favorable electrode active mass compositions, a wide compaction down to porosities of less than 20% was considered and electrochemically cycled between C/20 and 5C to map different applications. Microstructural analyses were used to determine the influence of compaction on the active material particles within the active mass and on the binder/additive phase. In addition to the change in pore size distribution, the studies give insight on the freely accessible surface of the active material particles within the porous active mass, the number of potential near-surface pores and pore openings with access to deeper lying areas and interactions on active mass components due to the external force application depending on the degree of compaction. The electrochemical properties of variously compacted LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2 (NCM) and graphite electrodes were determined in half-cells with a Li/Li+ counter electrode and in fullcell configuration with a graphite or NCM counter electrodes of constant porosity to finally correlate them with the active mass microstructure. From the performed capacities, the specific energy vs. specific power (gravimetric consideration) and the energy density vs. power density (volumetric consideration) were displayed in Ragone plots. By using this result, an optimal porosity of the electrodes and, at the same time, an effcient trade-off of the target variables energy and power was achieved. Electrochemical long-term cycling also provided insights into the limitations of the electrode active masses depending on the degree of compaction in different applications. Focusing on the manufacturing parameters and microstructure of the active mass coating of lithium-ion cells, the present results give guidelines for the design optimization of electrodes for energy cells and power cells as well.

description: Online social media has been a popular source for people to consume and share news content. More recently, the spread of misinformation online has caused widespread concerns. In this work, we focus on a critical task of detecting fauxtography on social media where the image and associated text together convey misleading information. Many efforts have been made to mitigate misinformation online, but we found that the fauxtography problem has not been fully addressed by existing work. Solutions focusing on detecting fake images or misinformed texts alone on social media often fail to identify the misinformation delivered together by the image and the associated text of a fauxtography post. In this paper, we develop FauxWard, a novel graph convolutional neural network framework that explicitly explores the complex information extracted from a user comment network of a social media post to effectively identify fauxtography. FauxWard is content-free in the sense that it does not analyze the visual or textual contents of the post itself, which makes it robust against sophisticated fauxtography uploaders who intentionally craft image-centric posts by editing either the text or image content. We evaluate FauxWard on two real-world datasets collected from mainstream social media platforms (i.e., Reddit and Twitter). The results show that FauxWard is both effective and efficient in identifying fauxtography posts on social media.

description: We use inelastic neutron scattering to probe magnetic excitations of an optimally electron-doped superconductor Nd$_{1.85}$Ce$_{0.15}$CuO$_{4-δ}$ above and below its superconducting transition temperature $T_c=25$ K. In addition to gradually opening a spin pseudo gap at the antiferromagnetic ordering wavevector ${\bf Q}=(1/2,1/2,0)$, the effect of superconductivity is to form a resonance centered also at ${\bf Q}=(1/2,1/2,0)$ but at energies above the spin pseudo gap. The intensity of the resonance develops like a superconducting order parameter, similar to those for hole-doped superconductors and electron-doped Pr$_{0.88}$LaCe$_{0.12}$CuO$_4$. The resonance is therefore a general phenomenon of cuprate superconductors, and must be fundamental to the mechanism of high-$T_c$ superconductivity.
