description: The partial articulated skeleton MLP 77-V-10-1 comes from the upper levels of La Meseta Formation (Seymour Island, Antarctica) at the southwestern slope of the plateau. These remains were found in the Submeseta Allomember, within the Anthropornis nordenskjoeldi Biozone, dated at 34.2 Ma using strontium isotope ratios from shells. MLP 77-V-10-1 is a giant penguin, probably the largest ever described, whose coracoids are strikingly wide at the distal surface. The present contribution is a study of this new fossil penguin, with particular emphasis on the coracoids. The osteography and associated muscles are described. Functional connotations of coracoid morphology are thoroughly discussed and its implications on the mechanics of diving are explored. We concluded that the coracoid morphology suggests a change in diving strategy from the earliest penguins until the living representatives. In the oldest penguins, the improvement of diving capacity would have been linked to the development of stronger bone and probably muscular structures enabling endurance of greater forces operating in a denser medium. In contrast, the Neogene penguins would have optimized the force action of the flight apparatus by developing more precise movements, adjusting the angle of attack of each of the effective forces.

description: I review recent theoretical developments and numerical results of twisted mass QCD. I argue that, combined with an efficient algorithm, twisted mass QCD can be an attractive QCD lattice action, to perform large scale simulations at small pion masses, where a matching with chiral perturbation theory can be performed. Open issues like flavour breaking effects are also addressed.

description: Calcareous nannofossil and foraminiferal analyses have been carried out on outcrops from the type-area of the Gonfolite Lombarda Group (Como, northern Italy). In these marine fine- to coarse-grained clastics, rapidly accumulating at the southern front of the uprising Alpine range during the Oligo-Miocene, a scarce, but reliable, sequence of calcareous nannofossil events has been observed, allowing to refine the previous age assignments. Planktonic foraminifera were found to be extremely rare and provided limited biostratigraphic information. The Villa Olmo Conglomerate and the Chiasso Formation contain the Last Occurrence (LO) of Sphenolithus distentus and the First Occurrence (FO) of Triquetrorhabdulus carinatus, which are characteristic of the nannofossil zones NP24 and NP25 (Chattian), respectively. The lower part of the Como Conglomerate was deposited during the zone NP25, whilst the upper part of the Como Conglomerate straddles the Chattian/Aquitanian boundary in zone NN1. The deposition of the Prestino Mudstones also occurred during zone NN1. However, the upper part of this formation has been dated as Burdigalian during nannofossil zone NN2. The deposition of the upper part of the Val Grande Sandstone has been assigned to the NN3 zone owing to the presence of the taxon Sphenolithus belemnos, which is restricted to NN3. The upper part of the investigated section is characterized by the deposition of the Lucino Conglomerate and its fine-grained members (Lucinasco and Lurate Caccivio Mudstones). The Lucinasco Mudstones have been dated as late Burdigalian corresponding to zone NN4, whilst the overlying Lurate Caccivio Mudstones were deposited during the Langhian part of the zone NN5, based on the presence of S. heteromorphus and the absence of H. ampliaperta. On the whole, the base and the top of the outcropping Gonfolite Lombarda Group result from our study to be younger than hitherto proposed, allowing to resolve certain previous conflicts with the few radiometric dates available for clasts from the Gonfolite Lombarda Group. The depth of deposition was upper bathyal during the Chattian and the Aquitanian and shallowed to neritic during the deposition of the Langhian Lurate Caccivio Mudstones.

description: The review is focused on our recent predictions of nontrivial physical phenomena taking place in the nanostructure single-layer grapheme on ferroelectric substrate, which are related with magnetic field. In particular we predicted that 180-degree domain walls in a strained ferroelectric film can induce p-n junctions in a graphene channel and lead to the unusual temperature and gate voltage dependences of the perpendicular modes ν of the integer quantum Hall effect. The non-integer numbers and their irregular sequence principally differ from the conventional sequence ν= 3/2, 5/3. The unusual v-numbers originate from significantly different numbers of the edge modes, ν1 and ν2, corresponding to different concentration of carriers in the left (n1) and right (n2) ferroelectric domains of p-n junction boundary. The difference between n1 and n2 disappears with the vanishing of the film spontaneous polarization in a paraelectric phase, which can be varied in a wide temperature range by an appropriate choice of misfit strain originated from the film-substrate lattice mismatch. Next we studied the electric conductivity of the system ferromagnetic dielectric - graphene channel - ferroelectric substrate. The magnetic dielectric locally transforms the band spectrum of graphene by inducing an energy gap in it and making it spin-asymmetric with respect to the free electrons. It was demonstrated, that if the Fermi level in the graphene channel belongs to energy intervals, where the graphene band spectrum, modified by EuO, becomes sharply spin-asymmetric, such a device can be an ideal non-volatile spin filter. The practical application of the system under consideration would be restricted by a Curie temperature of a ferromagnet. Controlling of the Fermi level (e.g. by temperature that changes ferroelectric polarization) can convert a spin filter to a spin valve.

It is found within the standard model that the branching ratios for the concerned processes are tiny, about ${\cal O}(10^{-18})$, and far beyond the detective ability of current experiments unless there exists some significant enhancements from a noval interaction.

description: The purpose of this study was to compare the microleakage of four obturation techniques (lateral compaction, lateral compaction of ProTaper Gutta-percha Point, single ProTaper Gutta-percha Point and warm vertical condensation) over a 3-month period. A fluid-transport model was used to measure microleakage. Sixty human extracted teeth, divided into four groups, were prepared with ProTaper rotary instruments before the root canals were filled by one of the four examined techniques. Microleakage was measured 7 days, 1 month, and 3 months after the procedures. There were no statistically significant differences between the four groups at any of examination points (p > 0.05).

description: The Lower Pliocene succession recovered at ODP Hole 975B (Balearic Basin, western Mediterranean) displays a sudden increase in sedimentation rate, in disagreement with the lithological homogeneity that characterizes the succession. The present study, consisting of a high resolution stratigraphic analysis, demonstrates that the succession is affected by repetition. The section has been astrochronologically constrained through integration of detailed biostratigraphy and cyclostratigraphy, which permitted a precise evaluation of the length and duration of the duplicated interval. This result demonstrates the efficacy of integrated stratigraphy in solving wide-range geological problems.

description: Fish otoliths are herein used to estimate the depositional depth of the Early - Middle Pleistocene deposits at SE Zakynthos and SW Kephallonia Islands (Ionian Sea, Western Greece), through comparison with the modern bathymetric distributions of the identified fish taxa. These estimates provide a more detailed picture of the depth variations for the Gelasian - Ionian stage interval in the study areas. The Lower Pleistocene marine deposits of the Gerakas Formation (SE Zakynthos Island, Ionian Sea) were deposited at average depths of 400-450 meters, with eustacy playing an important role in the depth variability, between 1.95-1.73 Ma. An uplifting episode, followed by subsidence takes place between 1.73-1.66 Ma, taking the area to 200-300 meters of depth, and then back to 400-500 meters. However, the area seems uplifted again to 200-400 meters later on in the Calabrian stage (1.25-0.97 Ma). Sedimentation of the Akrotiri deposits (NW Kephallonia Island, Ionian Sea), during the same chronostratigraphic interval, took place in a similar setting. At the Early Pleistocene (1.95-1.73 Ma) this basin reached depths of 400-450 meters, with uplift and following subsidence taking place between 1.73-1.66 Ma. Overall, the application of fish otolith paleobathymetry in the study areas provide a detailed picture of the depth variations for the Early Quaternary interval and refine the currently hypothesized pattern of tectonic movements.

description: We use an idealized three-dimensional general circulation model to study condensible-rich atmospheres with an ineffective cold trap on slowly rotating tidally locked terrestrial planets. In particular, we show the climate dynamics in a thin and temperate atmosphere with condensible water vapor. The similarities between our thin and temperate atmosphere and the warm and thick atmosphere approaching the water vapor runaway greenhouse in previous works are discussed, including the reversal of the thermal emission between the day and night hemispheres. Different from the transit spectroscopy of water vapor that depends on the absolute amount of atmospheric water vapor, the contrast between the dayside and nightside thermal emission provides information regarding the relative ratio of water vapor to the background atmosphere as well as the atmospheric pressure near the substellar tropopause and the emission level on the nightside on potentially habitable worlds.

Ab Initio Calculation of Impurity Effects in Copper Oxide Materials

description: We describe a method for calculating, within density functional theory, the electronic structure associated with typical defects which substitute for Cu in the CuO2 planes of high-Tc superconducting materials. The focus is primarily on Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8, the material on which most STM measurements of impurity resonances in the superconducting state have been performed. The magnitudes of the effective potentials found for Zn, Ni and vacancies on the in-plane Cu sites in this host material are remarkably consistent with phenomenological fits of potential scattering models to STM resonance energies. The effective potential ranges are quite short, of order 1 A with weak long range tails, in contrast to some current models of extended potentials which attempt to fit STM data. For the case of Zn and Cu vacancies, the effective potentials are strongly repulsive, and states on the impurity site near the Fermi level are simply removed. The local density of states (LDOS) just above the impurity is nevertheless found to be a maximum in the case of Zn and a local minimum in case of the vacancy, in agreement with experiment. The Zn and Cu vacancy patterns are explained as due to the long-range tails of the effective impurity potential at the sample surface. The case of Ni is richer due to the Ni atom's strong hybridization with states near the Fermi level; in particular, the short range part of the potential is attractive, and the LDOS is found to vary rapidly with distance from the surface and from the impurity site. We propose that the current controversy surrounding the observed STM patterns can be resolved by properly accounting for the effective impurity potentials and wave-functions near the cuprate surface. Other aspects of the impurity states for all three species are discussed.

description: We demonstrate that scattering of particles strongly interacting in three dimensions (3D) can be suppressed at low energies in a quasi-one-dimensional (1D) confinement. The underlying mechanism is the interference of the s- and p-wave scattering contributions with large s- and p-wave 3D scattering lengths being a necessary prerequisite. This low-dimensional quantum scattering effect might be useful in "interacting" quasi-1D ultracold atomic gases, guided atom interferometry, and impurity scattering in strongly confined quantum wire-based electronic devices.

THE CONTRIBUTION OF MAMMAL-BEARING DEPOSITS TO TIMING LATE PLEISTOCENE TECTONICS OF CAPE TINDARI (NORD EASTERN SICILY)

description: At Cape Tindari, in North-Eastern Sicily, both right-lateral and extensional displacements are documented, but very little is known about the timing of the Upper Pleistocene faults. On the steep cliffs delimiting Cape Tindari, a triangular shaped fissure opens, named Donnavilla Cave, which contains the remains of a continental mammal-bearing deposit plastering the walls of the fissure bored by Lithodomus holes from 73 m up to 85 m a. s. l..  New geological, palaeontological and radiometric data on the Cape Tindari mammal-bearing deposits are here exposed and they are compared with the known terraced mammal bearing deposits in North-eastern Sicily. The mammal-bearing deposits and the walls bored by Lithodomus holes point to the previous existence at Cape Tindari of the inner margin of the MIS 5.5 marine terrace and of the overlying coastal plain deposits. A stalagmite crust previously overlying the mammal-bearing deposits and now hanging and sloping inward into the cave, point to an erosion phase of the inner margin of the coastal plain younger than the stalagmite crust which is 40 ± 4 ka old. At 104 m a.s.l. an older abrasion platform and littoral deposits up to 111 m a.s.l. have been recognised. The two coastal lines and the deeply eroded continental deposits furnish for the first time chronological evidence from stratigraphy and biochronology to time the Late Pleistocene faulting previously recognised at Cape Tindari. They are probably responsible for a lowering of Cape Tindari of about 20 m after the MIS 5.5 substage and for cutting of part of the coastal plain deposits after the deposit of the stalagmite crust.

description: We consider the process of catastrophic expansion of a spacelike wormhole after a violation of its equilibrium state. The dynamics of deformation of the comoving reference frame is investigated. We show that the deformation has a very specific anisotropic feature. The statement made earlier by other authors, that in the process of expanding the wormhole connecting two universes these universes ultimately unite into one universe, is not correct. We show that the transverse size of the wormhole (its throat) increases and the length of the corridor decreases which does not correspond to the de Sitter model.
Matching phonetic information in lips and voice is robust in 4.5-month-old infants
Creators: name: Patterson, Michelle Louise
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Past research (Kuhl & Meltzoff, 1982; 1984) claims that 4.5-month-old infants can match phonetic information in the lips and voice. These studies used female faces poking through cloth to occlude possible distractions. Attempts to replicate these findings have not produced convincing results. The present studies were conducted to replicate and extend past research by examining how robust the ability to match phonetic information in lips and voice is at 4.5-months of age. If speech is represented intermodally in young infants then they should show evidence of matching with more ecologically valid visual stimuli and also with male faces and voices. Also, more infants might be expected to imitate the vowels when the model's lips and voice match than when they do not match. Sixty-four infants were seated in front of two side-by-side video monitors displaying filmed images of a female or a male face, each articulating a different vowel sound (/i/ or /a/) in synchrony. The sound track was played through a central speaker and corresponded to one of the two vowels but was synchronous with both. Infants spent approximately equal amounts of time looking and smiling at both the female and the male faces (p>.05). However, infants looked longer at the face that matched the heard vowel for both female and male stimuli (p<.01). Also, infants showed articulatory imitation in response to the matching face/voice stimuli (p<.05). The finding that bimodal phonetic matching holds with a more ecologically valid face and with male stimuli supports the hypothesis that infants are able to link phonetic information presented in the lips and voice. This suggests an integrated, multi-modal representation of articulatory and acoustic phonetic information at 4.5-months of age.

One wire is deposited on the center strip line of the coplanar waveguide (CPW) and the other one deposited between two strip lines of CPW. The method is based on the detection of the magnetoresistance oscillation due to the magnetization dynamics induced by the radio frequency field. The magnetic field dependences of the resonance frequency and the rectification spectrum are presented and analytically interpreted on the standpoint of a uniform magnetization precession model.

description: While magnetic fields have long been considered to be important for the evolution of magnetic non-degenerate stars and compact stars, it has become clear in recent years that actually all of the stars are deeply affected. This is particularly true regarding their internal angular momentum distribution, but magnetic fields may also influence internal mixing processes and even the fate of the star. We propose a new framework for stellar evolution simulations, in which the interplay between magnetic field, rotation, mass loss, and changes in the stellar density and temperature distributions are treated self-consistently. For average large-scale stellar magnetic fields which are symmetric to the axis of rotation of the star, we derive 1D evolution equations for the toroidal and poloidal components from the mean-field MHD equation by applying Alfven's theorem, and a conservative form of the angular momentum transfer due to the Lorentz force is formulated. We implement our formalism into a numerical stellar evolution code and simulate the magneto-rotational evolution of 1.5 M$_\odot$ stars. The Lorentz force aided by the $Ω$ effect imposes torsional Alfven waves propagating through the magnetized medium, leading to near-rigid rotation within the Alfven timescale. Our models with different initial spins and B-fields can reproduce the main observed properties of Ap/Bp stars. Calculations continued to the red-giant regime show a pronounced core-envelope coupling, which reproduces the core and surface rotation periods determined by asteroseismic observations.

description: Context: Pharmaceutical opioid (PO) use has increased four-fold in Australia with increased deaths, mostly by accidental overdose. Pharmaceutical claims showed that 10-20% of the population visited at least four prescribers or three dispensing pharmacies, or obtained at least 20 dispensing. Three (3.1%) percent of the population met all 3 criteria. Doctor-shoppers are believed to have twice the risk of drug-related mortality and opioid-related hospital admissions. Objective: To identify the demographics and drug-seeking behaviour of doctor-shoppers. Design: Identification of patients who have been prescribed at least one opioid between 2000-2017 in the data repository of the UNSW electronic Practice Based Research Network (ePBRN). The prescription strength and dose was used to calculate oral Morphine Equivalent Dose (oMED); visit information to calculate usual provider of care (UPC), Doctor Shopping Quantity (DSQ) and Doctor Shopping Indicator (DSI). Associations with demographic and clinical data of the opioid cohort were examined. Setting: SW Sydney Participants: Fourteen general practices, 200+ GPs and 60,637 active patients. Findings: A cohort of 13, 492 patients (prescribed at least one opioid between 2000-2017) was identified. There was no gender bias. Most were aged 41-70 years, followed by the 21-40 age group. A quarter of the cohort (25%) had mental health co-morbidities. Most opioid users visited only one practice, but often see different providers within the practice. Only a handful visited more than 2 practices. Values for UPC, oMED, DSQ and DSI will be discussed at the conference. Implications for practice: Observational EHR data can be used for timely identification, assessment and monitoring of selected cohorts and, in this case, associations of opioid abuse with cohort characteristics.

description: We investigate the effect of exchange and correlation (xc) in low-density electron bilayers. Along with the direct Coulomb interaction, the effective electron-electron interaction mediated by the exchange of virtual polar optical (PO) phonons is considered. We find that the introduction of xc corrections results in a significant enhancement of the transresistivity and qualitative changes in its temperature dependence. The virtual PO-phonon contribution behaves similarly to the Coulomb drag and reduces noticeably the total drag thereby resulting in a better agreement with the recent experimental findings.

description: Both young stars and multi-planet systems are primary objects that allow us to study, understand and constrain planetary formation and evolution theories. We validate the physical nature of two Neptune-type planets transiting TOI-942 (TYC 5909-319-1), a previously unacknowledged young star (50+30-20 Myr) observed by the TESS space mission in Sector 5. Thanks to a comprehensive stellar characterization, TESS light curve modelling and precise radial-velocity measurements, we validated the planetary nature of the TESS candidate and detect an additional transiting planet in the system on a larger orbit. From photometric and spectroscopic observations we performed an exhaustive stellar characterization and derived the main stellar parameters. TOI-942 is a relatively active K2.5V star (logR'hk = -4.17+-0.01) with rotation period Prot = 3.39+-0.01 days, a projected rotation velocity vsini=13.8+-0.5 km/s and a radius of ~0.9 Rsun. We found that the inner planet, TOI-942b, has an orbital period Pb=4.3263+-0.0011 days, a radius Rb=4.242-0.313+0.376 Rearth and a mass upper limit of 16 Mearth at 1-sigma confidence level. The outer planet, TOI-942c, has an orbital period Pc=10.1605-0.0053+0.0056 days, a radius Rc=4.793-0.351+0.410 Rearth and a mass upper limit of 37 Mearth at 1-sigma confidence level.

description: We study selectron production at an e-e- linear collider. With the help of transverse beam polarizations, we define CP sensitive observables in the production process e- e- --> selectron_L selectron_R. This process proceeds via t-channel and u-channel exchange of neutralinos, and is sensitive to CP violation in the neutralino sector. We present numerical results and estimate the significances to which the CP sensitive observables can be measured.

description: Recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) consists of asphalt mixtures that have been either unprocessed (e.g., milled) or processed (e.g., screened) and sourced from roadways or other resources. Utilizing RAP is a sustainable practice that can potentially lead to cost savings, environmental preservation, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions, as long as the engineering performance of the roadways incorporating RAP remains uncompromised. This study explores the benefits and drawbacks of using RAP in embankment construction and develops a numerical model to assess RAP's performance under various conditions.
description: RAP samples from five sources and two conventional soils (as references) for laboratory experiments that included testing for basic soil/RAP characteristics, gradations, moisture-density relationships at different temperatures, permeability, and as well as one-dimensional consolidation tests at different temperatures, dynamic triaxial tests at various temperatures, and direct shear analysis.
description: The results indicate that while the density and basic characteristics of RAP are similar to soil, temperature effects on RAP must always be considered. RAP exhibits comparable performance to conventional soil under static loading; however, it does not stabilize under traffic loading. Temperature significantly impacts RAP performance. To mitigate settlement issues, thermal preloading of the embankment layer is beneficial. The shear properties of RAP and soil are comparable. The hydraulic conductivity of RAP is considerably higher than that of soil. This difference must be accounted for in the pavement's drainage design.
description: A numerical model of RAP, employing a viscoelastoplastic approach, is proposed and validated using laboratory data. The nonlinear viscoelastic characteristics of RAP are modeled using a generalized Kelvin-Voigt model. The viscoplastic behavior is characterized by a non-associated flow rule and an isotropic hardening rule. Both the yield function and the flow rule for the viscoplastic model follow the Drucker-Prager framework, but with different sets of parameters. The proposed viscoelastoplastic model was found to be effective in characterizing the unique behavior of RAPs.

description: Allo scopo di studiare la convenienza di usare il principio dello 'Strong Focusing' in un elettrosincrotrone da 1000 MeV, e' stato fatto il progetto di massima che viene descritto nel seguito. Come si vedra' in questo progetto ci si e' soprattutto preoccupati di calcolare le caratteristiche della macchina che, almeno teoricamente, possono essere confrontate con quello di una macchina convenzionale; in alcuni casi tali caratteristiche sono messe in rapporto con quelle calcolate per il 'Progetto Tiburtino I^' e riportate nel 'Rapporto N.10 del Gruppo Teorico'. I calcoli sono stati eseguiti largamente impiegando il formalismo del rapporto del Dr. M.S.Idwigetons: 'Design Study for a 15 BeV Protron-Synchrotron'. M,I,T, Tech, Rap, n.10 - June 30-1953, e facendo uso di idee e formule raccolte nelle bibliografie di cui all'elenco che si trova alla fine del presente rapporto.

description: In this work we study the collective behaviors arising in a model of a simplified homogeneous society. Each agent is modeled as a binary ``perceptron'', receiving neighbors' opinions as inputs and outputting one of two possible opinions, according to the conformist attitude and to the external pressure of mass media. For a neighborhood size greater than three, the system shows a very complex phase diagram, including a disordered phase and chaotic behavior. We present analytic calculations, mean fields approximation and numeric simulations for different values of the parameters.

description: Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) combine interesting optical and spintronic properties in an atomically-thin material, where the light polarization can be used to control the spin and valley degrees-of-freedom for the development of novel opto-spintronic devices. These promising properties emerge due to their large spin-orbit coupling in combination with their crystal symmetries. Here, we provide simple symmetry arguments in a group-theory approach to unveil the symmetry-allowed spin scattering mechanisms, and indicate how one can use these concepts towards an external control of the spin lifetime. We perform this analysis for both monolayer (inversion asymmetric) and bilayer (inversion symmetric) crystals, indicating the different mechanisms that play a role in these systems. We show that, in monolayer TMDs, electrons and holes transform fundamentally differently -- leading to distinct spin-scattering processes. We find that one of the electronic states in the conduction band is partially protected by time-reversal symmetry, indicating a longer spin lifetime for that state. In bilayer and bulk TMDs, a hidden spin-polarization can exist within each layer despite the presence of global inversion symmetry. We show that this feature enables control of the interlayer spin-flipping scattering processes via an out-of-plane electric field, providing a mechanism for electrical control of the spin lifetime.

description: In this age of environmental awareness, the significance of water-borne transport is ever increasing because of its energy efficiency and convenience. To facilitate the development of water-borne transport, navigation channels have to be created or deepened to allow the safe passage of vessels. Meanwhile, in its efforts to transport products as safely and economically as possible, the oil and gas industry needs to lay pipelines on the sea-bed. These pipelines are frequently placed in a trench and the trench backfilled. In these two examples of excavation or reprofiling of the sea-bed or river-bed the work would be carried out by dredgers. They illustrate the key role which dredging now plays in our lives.
