description: To evaluate efficacy and safety of lebrikizumab combined with topical corticosteroids (TCS) in Japanese patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD). Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (ADhere-J; NCT04760314) conducted at 37 centers in Japan (March 2021–February 2023), comprising 16-week induction (reported herein) and 52-week maintenance periods. Overall, 286 patients aged ≥12 years and ≥40 kg were randomized (interactive web response system) to subcutaneous placebo, lebrikizumab 250 mg every 4 weeks (Q4W), or lebrikizumab 250 mg every 2 weeks (Q2W) with TCS (82, 81, and 123 patients, respectively). Coprimary endpoints were proportions of patients achieving (1) Investigator’s Global Assessment score of 0 or 1 (IGA [0,1]) with ≥2-point improvement from baseline, and (2) ≥75% improvement from baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI 75) at week 16. At week 16, compared with placebo, a significantly greater proportion of the lebrikizumab Q4W and Q2W groups achieved IGA (0,1) (6.1% vs. 29.1% and 33.4%, respectively; both p < 0.001) and EASI 75 (13.4% vs. 47.2% and 51.2%, respectively; both p < 0.001). Serious adverse events (AEs) occurred in 2.4%, 0%, and 0.8% of placebo, lebrikizumab Q4W and Q2W groups, respectively. Common treatment-emergent AEs, including pyrexia (placebo: 15.9%; lebrikizumab Q4W/Q2W: 18.5%/20.3%), conjunctivitis allergic (placebo: 4.9%; lebrikizumab Q4W/Q2W: 12.3%/17.1%), and conjunctivitis (placebo: 2.4%; lebrikizumab Q4W/Q2W: 6.2%/9.8%), were more frequent with lebrikizumab; most were mild or moderate. Consistent with global data, lebrikizumab demonstrated clinical improvements with a positive benefit-risk profile in Japanese adults and adolescents with moderate-to-severe AD through 16 weeks.

description: We report Keck LRIS observations of an arc-like background galaxy near the center of Abell 2152 (z=0.043), one of the three clusters comprising the Hercules supercluster. The background object has a redshift z=0.1423 and is situated 25 arcsec north of the primary component of the A2152 brightest cluster galaxy (BCG). The object is about 15 arcsec in total length and has a reddening-corrected R-band magnitude of $m_R = 18.55\pm0.03$. Its spectrum shows numerous strong emission lines, as well as absorption features. The strength of the H-alpha emission would imply a star formation rate $\SFR \approx 3h^{-2} \msun $yr$^{-1}$ in the absence of any lensing. However, the curved shaped of this object and its tangential orientation along the major axis of the BCG suggest lensing. We model the A2152 core mass distribution including the two BCG components and the cluster potential. We present velocity and velocity dispersion profile measurements for the two BCG components and use these to help constrain the potential. The lens modeling indicates a likely magnification factor of $\sim1.9$ for the lensed galaxy, making A2152 the nearest cluster in which such significant lensing of a background source has been observed. Finally, we see evidence for a concentration of early-type galaxies at $z=0.13$ near the centroid of the X-ray emission previously attributed to A2152. We suggest that emission from this background concentration is the cause of the offset of the X-ray center from the A2152 BCG. The background concentration and the dispersed mass of the Hercules supercluster could add further to the lensing strength of the A2152 cluster.

description: The Gaia-ESO Survey (GES) is a large spectroscopic survey that provides a unique opportunity to study the distribution of spectroscopic multiple systems among different populations of the Galaxy. We aim at detecting binarity/multiplicity for stars targeted by the GES from the analysis of the cross-correlation functions (CCFs) of the GES spectra with spectral templates. We develop a method based on the computation of the CCF successive derivatives to detect multiple peaks and determine their radial velocities, even when the peaks are strongly blended. The parameters of the detection of extrema (DOE) code have been optimized for each GES GIRAFFE and UVES setup to maximize detection. This code therefore allows to automatically detect multiple line spectroscopic binaries (SBn, n>1). We apply this method on the fourth GES internal data release and detect 354 SBn candidates (342 SB2, 11 SB3 and even one SB4), including only 9 SB2 known in the literature. This implies that about 98% of these SBn candidates are new (because of their faint visual magnitude that can reach V=19). Visual inspection of the SBn candidate spectra reveals that the most probable candidates have indeed a composite spectrum. Among SB2 candidates, an orbital solution could be computed for two previously unknown binaries: 06404608+0949173 (known as V642 Mon) in NGC 2264 and 19013257-0027338 in Berkeley 81. A detailed analysis of the unique SB4 (four peaks in the CCF) reveals that HD 74438 in the open cluster IC 2391 is a physically bound stellar quadruple system. The SB candidates belonging to stellar clusters are reviewed in detail to discard false detections. We warn against the use of atmospheric parameters for these system components rather than by SB-specific pipelines. Our implementation of an automatic detection of spectroscopic binaries within the GES has allowed an efficient discovery of many new multiple systems.

description: To estimate the cost and healthcare resource utilization (HRU) associated with the prevalence of comorbidities in people living with HIV (PLWH) in a Spanish cohort over ten years. A cohort study carried out at the HIV outpatient clinic of the University Hospital Virgen del Rocío based on data collected during 2007–2016. PLWH with at least one follow-up visit were included. Comorbidities were determined by examining diagnostic codes in the electronic medical records. Costs were estimated from hospitalizations, emergency and non-HIV visits, laboratory tests for conditions unrelated to HIV infection, HIV antiretroviral therapy, and other non-HIV diagnostic tests. A linear regression was performed with non-ART costs as the dependent variable and patient characteristics (sex, HIV transmission route, age, CD4, comorbidities, and infection duration) as independent variables. The study included 2,798 PLWH; 83% were men with a mean age of 38.6 years. Overall, 52.5% of PLWH had at least one non-HIV comorbidity and 21.2% had ≥3 comorbidities. The most prevalent comorbidities were hepatitis C (25.3%) and hypertension (22.9%). The presence of comorbidities increased the total healthcare cost up to 80% in PLWH with ≥3 comorbidities compared with those without comorbidities (over a 10-year period (115,867.3€ vs 64,290.7€, p < .001). The number of comorbidities was linked to higher healthcare costs in PLWH in the adjusted model. Comorbidities raised the total healthcare costs for PLWH, with a greater impact on those with multiple comorbidities compared to those with few or none. Both clinical and economic decision-makers must consider and assess the cost of comorbidities when evaluating HIV treatment guidelines or recommendations.

description: We study the flow of a thixotropic fluid around a cylinder. The rheology of the fluid is described by means of a structural viscoplastic model based on the Bingham constitutive equation, regularised using the Papanastasiou regularisation. The yield stress is assumed to vary linearly with the structural parameter, which varies from zero (completely broken structure) to one (fully developed skeleton structure), following a first-order rate equation which accounts for material structure break-down and build-up. The results were obtained numerically using the Finite Element Method. Simulations were performed for a moderate Reynolds number of 45, so that flow recirculation is observed behind the cylinder, but vortex shedding does not occur. The effects of the Bingham number and of the thixotropy parameters are studied. The results show that the viscous character of the flow can be controlled within certain limits through these parameters, despite the fact that the Reynolds number is fixed.

description: On 28 May 2013, the Media Development Authority of Singapore (MDA) dropped a bombshell on the online community. In a press release, it declared that within three days, websites reporting on Singapore news, and with significant reach, will have to be licensed. This case examines the need for regulation of online news content, against a backdrop of rising online participation in civic and political affairs. It highlights the dilemmas faced by policymakers seeking to understand and regulate the news industry in the context of media convergence and a more active and engaged citizenry. Beyond examining the need for such Internet regulations, the case also raises questions of how the government should formulate and implement these regulations.

description: We describe a way to determine the total angular momentum, both spin and orbital, transferred to a particle trapped in optical tweezers. As an example an LG02 mode of a laser beam with varying degrees of circular polarisation is used to trap and rotate an elongated particle with a well defined geometry. The method successfully estimates the total optical torque applied to the particle. For this technique, there is no need to measure the viscous drag on the particle, as it is an optical measurement. Therefore, knowledge of the particle's size and shape, as well as the fluid's viscosity, is not required.

According to the McKinsey Global Institute, Indonesia is the 16th largest economy in the world with potential to climb to the 7th position by 2030. However, Indonesia’s ambitions may be constrained by the low productivity of its labor force. As such, Indonesia’s Ministry of Education & Culture (MENC), the Directorate General of Higher Education (DGHE) and the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) has decided to focus extensively on improving technical education and vocational training (TVET) to narrow the skills gap. This case study is about the development of, and future for, vocational education in Indonesia.

The Unified model and the Seyfert 2 infrared dichotomy

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: An optical spectropolarimetric study has shown that the detectability of polarised broad H-alpha in Seyfert 2 galaxies is correlated to the IRAS f60/f25 flux ratio where only those Seyfert 2s with "warm" IRAS colours show polarised broad line emission. It was suggested that those Seyfert 2s with "cool" IRAS colours have highly inclined tori which obscure the broad line scattering screen. I present here hard X-ray observations inconsistent with this picture showing that the derived column densities of warm and cool Seyfert 2 galaxies are statistically the same. I classify the Bright Galaxy Sample to produce a non-Seyfert comparison. The analysis of the properties of these galaxies with the Seyfert 2s suggest that the IRAS f60/f25 flux ratio is consistent with implying the relative strength of galactic to Seyfert emission. I show that this new picture can account for the absence of polarised broad H-alpha in the cool Seyfert 2s.

description: Large-scale data collection by means of wireless sensor network and internet-of-things technology poses various challenges in view of the limitations in transmission, computation, and energy resources of the associated wireless devices. Compressive data gathering based on compressed sensing has been proven a well-suited solution to the problem. Existing designs exploit the spatiotemporal correlations among data collected by a specific sensing modality. However, many applications, such as environmental monitoring, involve collecting heterogeneous data that are intrinsically correlated. In this study, we propose to leverage the correlation from multiple heterogeneous signals when recovering the data from compressive measurements. To this end, we propose a novel recovery algorithm---built upon belief-propagation principles---that leverages correlated information from multiple heterogeneous signals. To efficiently capture the statistical dependencies among diverse sensor data, the proposed algorithm uses the statistical model of copula functions. Experiments with heterogeneous air-pollution sensor measurements show that the proposed design provides significant performance improvements against state-of-the-art compressive data gathering and recovery schemes that use classical compressed sensing, compressed sensing with side information, and distributed compressed sensing.

title: Hysteretic Behavior of bridge columns with FRP-Jacketed lap splices designed for moderate ductility enhancement
Creators: name: Brena, SF
name: Schlick, BM
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2007

description: This paper presents test results of six specimens representing older bridge columns with inadequate reinforcement detailing consisting of short lap splices at the base and widely spaced transverse reinforcement. Four of these specimens were rehabilitated using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) jackets of two different composite materials (carbon and aramid) to avoid premature failure of the lapped bars after a limited number of postyield cycles. The test results indicate that thin FRP jackets can be used to avoid failure of short lap splices at moderate displacement ductilities. Displacement capacities consistent with expected demands in regions of moderate or low seismicity were achieved after jacket retrofitting. The hysteretic behavior of rehabilitated columns was assessed with emphasizing issues related to variation of stiffness and damping ratio as a function of ductility demand for this class of columns. Equations that account for the effect of axial load level on estimates of effective stiffness and damping as a function of displacement ductility are proposed for this class of columns.

Case B narrates how the government’s strategy of dealing with the second protest of the IAC movement backfired. Anna and Kejriwal were arrested before they began their fast. IAC took full advantage of the situation and used the news and social media to mobilize public opinion against the government. Anna began his fast-unto-death inside prison while the government, on the back foot now, attempted to bring things under control. After days of negotiation, Anna ended his fast when the parliament passed a non-binding resolution to incorporate his key demands into the Lokpal Bill. In his speech, Anna called on his supporters to continue the struggle for change.

description: The employment of foreign domestic workers (FDWs or maids) in Singapore is often seen as a black-and-white issue, with first-world employers ruthlessly exploiting third-world workers. While FDWs in Singapore do suffer from a lack of legal protection and practical support, their legal and social status has evolved over time. Equally, local narratives surrounding FDWs as well as other types of immigrants and the topic of migration in general vary across and within the various groups that make up Singaporean society. While successive governments have chosen to focus purely on the economic implications of their foreign labour policies, a lively debate exists within society regarding the rights, wrongs, advantages and disadvantages of the nation’s reliance upon FDWs. This case study looks at the history of domestic labour in Singapore, the applicable local legislation, and the ways in which social forces have shaped and responded to policy on the issue.

description: The symmetries of the topological Yang-Mills theory are studied in the Hamiltonian formalism and the generators of the twisted N=2 superPoincaré algebra are explicitly constructed. Noting that the twisted Lorentz generators do not generate the Lorentz symmetry of the theory, we relate the two by extracting from the latter the twisted version of the internal SU(2) generator. The hermiticity properties of the various generators are also considered throughout, and the boost generators are found to be non-hermitian. We then recover the BRST cohomology condition on physical states from representation theory arguments.

description: We present accurate electrical resistivity measurements along the two principle crystallographic axes of the pressure-induced heavy-fermion superconductor CeRhIn5 up to 5.63 GPa. For both directions, a valence crossover line is identified in the p-T plane and the extrapolation of this line to zero temperature coincides with the collapse of the magnetic ordering temperature. Furthermore, it is found that the p-T phase diagram of CeRhIn5 in the valence crossover region is very similar to that of CeCu2Si2. These results point to the essential role of Ce-4f electron delocalization in both destroying magnetic order and realizing superconductivity in CeRhIn5 under pressure.

Как неотъемлемая часть программ международного бакалавриата данная технология активно внедряется в российских образовательных организациях и демонстрирует широкий спектр потенциальных возможностей в оценивании компетенций обучающихся, среди которых одна из важнейших компетенций современного мира лингвистическая. При сравнительном анализе подходов к оцениванию лингвистической компетенции обучающихся между традиционным подходом в отечественной практике и подходом в Международном Бакалавриате выявлены разночтения. Заявленные критерии программы MYP Международного Бакалавриата выявляют большее количество оцениваемых аспектов в соответствии с определенным видом речевой деятельности. Анализ положений Международного Бакалавриата и требований ФГОС позволяет выделить основные задачи и необходимый инструментарий в оценивании лингвистической компетенции обучающихся, а именно: система оценивания должна представлять комплексную, накопительную оценку результатов обучения, охватывать методы диагностического, формирующего и констатирующего оценивания, включать самооценивание, количественные, качественные, смешанные методы оценки в равной степени. Применение системы критериального оценивания к уровню лингвистической компетенции обучающихся позволяет решить некоторые вопросы организации обучения. Во-первых, выявляются недостатки в работе отдельных преподавателей, а значит, их внимание вынужденно переключается с содержания на организацию учебного процесса. Во-вторых, растет взаимная ответственность всех субъектов образовательного процесса, а следовательно, повышается качество обучения. Тем не менее некоторые проблемы оценивания лингвистической компетенции обучающихся пока остаются нерешенными.

description: We present results on the total mass and temperature determination using two samples of clusters of galaxies. One sample is constructed with emphasis on the completeness of the sample, while the advantage of the other is the use of the temperature profiles, derived with ASCA. We obtain remarkably similar fits to the M-T relation for both samples, with the normalization and the slope significantly different from both prediction of self-similar collapse and hydrodynamical simulations. We discuss the origin of these discrepancies and also combine the X-ray mass with velocity dispersion measurements to provide a comparison with high-resolution dark matter simulations. Finally, we discuss the importance of a cluster formation epoch in the observed M-T relation.

description: В статье рассматриваются современные подходы к повышению квалификации профессорско-преподавательского состава вуза, учитывающие важнейшие тенденции совершенствования современного образовательного процесса. В качестве одной из ведущих признается тенденция ориентации на будущее образования, в связи с чем существенно меняется роль преподавателя. Не менее важной является тенденция, учитывающая тот факт, что поколение Z, так называемое «цифровое поколение», имеет существенные когнитивно-психологические и социально-педагогические особенности, по сравнению с другими поколениями. Приведены исследования поколения Z, характеризующие его как «цифровое поколение», научные теории, детерминирующие исследование поколения Z естественно-научными методами, для подтверждения важности учета поколенческой теории в совершенствовании образовательного процесса. Исследуется отношение профессорско-преподавательского состава инженерного вуза к будущему образования и поколению Z, изучается уровень знаний педагогов о направлениях развития образования, особенностях поколения Z, владение ими современными теоретическими представлениями об изменениях образовательного процесса, которые основываются на современных тенденциях.

description: A theoretical study of stress-impedance effect based on the solution of Landau-Lifsitz-Gilbert equation has been carried out. The results show that stress impedance effects depend largely on several extrinsic (external bias field, external frequency) and intrinsic (orientation and magnitude of uniaxial anisotropy, damping) parameters.

description: To evaluate efficacy and safety of lebrikizumab combined with topical corticosteroids (TCS) in Japanese patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD). Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (ADhere-J; NCT04760314) conducted at 37 centers in Japan (March 2021–February 2023), comprising 16-week induction (reported herein) and 52-week maintenance periods. Overall, 286 patients aged ≥12 years and ≥40 kg were randomized (interactive web response system) to subcutaneous placebo, lebrikizumab 250 mg every 4 weeks (Q4W), or lebrikizumab 250 mg every 2 weeks (Q2W) with TCS (82, 81, and 123 patients, respectively). Coprimary endpoints were proportions of patients achieving (1) Investigator’s Global Assessment score of 0 or 1 (IGA [0,1]) with ≥2-point improvement from baseline, and (2) ≥75% improvement from baseline in Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI 75) at week 16. At week 16, compared with placebo, a significantly greater proportion of the lebrikizumab Q4W and Q2W groups achieved IGA (0,1) (6.1% vs. 29.1% and 33.4%, respectively; both p < 0.001) and EASI 75 (13.4% vs. 47.2% and 51.2%, respectively; both p < 0.001). Serious adverse events (AEs) occurred in 2.4%, 0%, and 0.8% of placebo, lebrikizumab Q4W and Q2W groups, respectively. Common treatment-emergent AEs, including pyrexia (placebo: 15.9%; lebrikizumab Q4W/Q2W: 18.5%/20.3%), conjunctivitis allergic (placebo: 4.9%; lebrikizumab Q4W/Q2W: 12.3%/17.1%), and conjunctivitis (placebo: 2.4%; lebrikizumab Q4W/Q2W: 6.2%/9.8%), were more frequent with lebrikizumab; most were mild or moderate. Consistent with global data, lebrikizumab demonstrated clinical improvements with a positive benefit-risk profile in Japanese adults and adolescents with moderate-to-severe AD through 16 weeks.

description: We suggest a novel type of photonic structures where the strength of diffraction can be managed in a very broad frequency range. We introduce optimized arrays of curved waveguides where light beams experience wavelength-independent normal, anomalous, or zero diffraction. Our results suggest novel opportunities for efficient self-collimation, focusing, and reshaping of beams produced by white-light and super-continuum sources. We also show how to manipulate light patterns through multicolor Talbot effect, which is possible neither in free space nor in conventional photonic lattices.

description: 2023 was an important year for research in traumatic brain injury (TBI), particularly as it concerned interests in neuropathology. After reviewing the literature, we present the advancements that we felt were of particular importance to the neuropathology community. Highlighted are articles that report upon: (1) the first large-cohort assessment for the neuropathology of intimate partner violence, (2) the assessment of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) in young athletes, (3) the observation of cortical sulcal depth vascular changes in CTE, (4) a proposal for a tau immunohistochemical panel to evaluate complex cases of CTE in the context of multiple tauopathies, (5) the relationship of TBI and/or CTE with TDP-43 pathology, (6) repetitive TBI inducing pathology in C9orf72-transgenic mice, (7) radiologic patterns of head and neck injury following vehicular underbody blast exposure, (8) chronic alterations in brain metal content following repetitive impact TBI, (9) neurovascular unit injury following low-level blast exposure, and finally (10) an assessment of Muhammad Ali’s clinical history leading to the conclusion that he suffered from young-onset, idiopathic Parkinson Disease. We close our writing with in memoriam to Dr. Byron A. Kakulas, a renowned figure in the neuropathology of spinal cord injury who we lost in 2023.

description: We devise a supersymmetry-based method for the construction of zero-energy states in graphene. Our method is applied to a two-dimensional massless Dirac equation with a hyperbolic scalar potential. We determine supersymmetric partners of our initial system and derive a reality condition for the transformed potential. The Dirac potentials generated by our method can be used to approximate interactions that are experimentally realizable.

description: В статье уточняется понятие «социокультурная реалия». Авторы определяют ее как явление, характерное для жизни одного народа и чуждое другому, отражающее национальный колорит и самобытность. Определяется роль социокультурных реалий в процессе формирования межкультурной компетенции у студентов неязыковых факультетов в вузе на занятиях по иностранному языку с позиции соизучения языков и культур. Обосновывается необходимость обучения иностранному языку на уровне высшего образования с учетом культуры, а также законов и принципов межкультурного общения и социокультурных реалий страны изучаемого языка в профессиональной деятельности. Представлен краткий анализ современных учебных пособий издательства Oxford и Cambridge с точки зрения выявления социокультурных реалий. Подчеркнута значимость активных методических приемов, ориентированных на рост уровня эмоционального интеллекта обучающихся путем «пережития»/«пропускания через себя» нового инокультурного опыта и последующей рефлексии. Для исследования проблемы формирования межкультурной компетенции на занятиях по иностранному языку был проведен эксперимент, в котором приняли участие студенты неязыковых факультетов МПГУ. Анализ полученных данных говорит о проблеме недостаточного знания культуры изучаемого языка, которую возможно решить, включая в занятие задания и упражнения, направленные на развитие навыков межкультурного общения. Представлены наиболее эффективные методы и стратегии обучения с элементами социокультурных реалий: анкета-тест, технология «культурный ассимилятор», культурно-ориентированные тексты с заданиями, медиатексты, обучающие и художественные кинофильмы.
The Warm Ionized Medium in the Milky Way and Other Galaxies
Creators: name: Mathis, John S.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Observations of the "Warm Ionized Medium" (or, equivalently, the "Diffuse Ionized Gas") of the local ISM, the Perseus arm in the Milky Way, and also in several other galaxies show strong [NII]6563 (~H-alpha in some cases) and [SII]6717/[NII]6583 = 0.6 - 0.7 in all locations and objects. Other line ratios (e.g., [O III]5007/H-beta) vary considerably. Simple photoionization models reproduce the observed spectra, providing extra heating beyond that supplied by photoionization is assumed (Reynolds, Haffner, & Tufte 1999). With observed gas-phase abundances (not solar), the line ratios in the local arm at b = 0 deg are fitted with no extra heating and (S/H) = 13 ppm (solar is 20 ppm). Local gas observed at b = -35 deg requires extra heating of about gamma = 0.75, where gamma is the extra heating in units of 10^{-25} erg H^{-1} s^{-1}. In the Perseus arm, there are similar results, with a domposition consistent with the Galactic abundance gradient. The requirements for NGC 891 are similar to the Perseus arm: little or no extra heating at |z| = 1 kpc and gamma 3 at 2 kpc. In NGC 891 there is also an increase of 5007/H-alpha with |z| that can only come about if most of the ionizing radiation is supplied by stars with T~50000 K. Either their radiation must propagate from the plane to high |z| through very little intervening matter, or else the stars are located at high |z|. The total power requirement of the extra heating is <15% of the photoionization power. [O~II]3727/H-beta can serve as a useful diagnostic of extra heating, but [S~III] 9065,9531/H-alpha is not useful in this regard.

The Ising model in a Bak-Tang-Wiesenfeld sandpile

Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We study the spin-1 Ising model with non-local constraints imposed by the Bak-Tang-Wiesenfeld sandpile model of self-organized criticality (SOC). The model is constructed as if the sandpile is being built on a (honeycomb) lattice with Ising interactions. In this way we combine two models that exhibit power-law decay of correlation functions characterized by different exponents. We discuss the model properties through an order parameter and the mean energy per node, as well as the temperature dependence of their fourth-order Binder cumulants. We find (i) a thermodynamic phase transition at a finite T_c between paramagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases, and (ii) that above T_c the correlation functions decay in a way typical of SOC. The usual thermodynamic criticality of the two-dimensional Ising model is not affected by SOC constraints (the specific heat critical exponent α\approx 0), nor are SOC-induced correlations affected by the interactions of the Ising model. Even though the constraints imposed by the SOC model induce long-range correlations, as if at standard (thermodynamic) criticality, these SOC-induced correlations have no impact on the thermodynamic functions.

Predictivity and Nonrenormalizability

description: We consider the problem of removing the divergences in an arbitrary gauge-field theory (possibly nonrenormalizable). We show that this can be achieved by performing, order by order in the loop expansion, a redefinition of some parameters (possibly infinitely many) and a canonical transformation (in the sense of Batalin and Vilkovisky) of fields and BRS sources. Gauge-invariance is turned into a suitable quantum generalization of BRS-invariance. We define quantum observables and study their properties. We apply the result to renormalizable gauge-field theories that are gauge-fixed with a nonrenormalizable gauge-fixing and prove that their predictivity is retained. A corollary is that topological field theories are predictive. Analogies and differences with the formalisms of classical and quantum mechanics are pointed out.
