description: Abstract
                Background
                Young adults (YA) are at high-risk for unhealthy dietary behaviors and weight gain. The Study of Novel Approaches to Weight Gain Prevention (SNAP) Trial demonstrated that two self-regulation approaches were effective in reducing weight gain over 2 years compared with control. The goal of this analysis was to examine effects of intervention on dietary outcomes and the association of diet changes with weight change.
                Methods
                Participants were 599 YA, age 18–35 years, BMI 21.0–30.0 kg/m2 (27.4 ± 4.4 years; 25.4 ± 2.6 kg/m2; 22% men; 73% non-Hispanic White), who were recruited in Providence, RI and Chapel Hill, NC and randomized to self-regulation with Small Changes (SC), self-regulation with Large Changes (LC) or Control (C). SC and LC emphasized frequent self-weighing to cue behavior changes (small daily changes vs. periodic large changes) and targeted high-risk dietary behaviors. Diet and weight were assessed at baseline, 4 months and 2 years.
                Results
                LC and SC had greater decreases in energy intake than C at 4 months but not 2 years. LC had the greatest changes in percent calories from fat at 4 months, but differences were attenuated at 2 years. No differences in diet quality were observed. Across conditions, increased total energy consumption, fast food, meals away from home, and binge drinking, and decreased dietary quality and breakfast consumption were all associated with weight gain at 2 years.
                Conclusions
                This study suggests the need to strengthen interventions to produce longer term changes in dietary intake and helps to identify specific behaviors associated with weight gain over time in young adults.

description: Abstract Background There is concern that artesunate resistance is developing in Southeast Asia. The purpose of this study is to investigate the prevalence of parasitaemia in the few days following treatment with artesunate-mefloquine (AM), which is an indirect measure of decreased artesunate susceptibility. Methods This is a retrospective analysis of 31 therapeutic efficacy studies involving 1,327 patients treated with AM conducted by the Thai National Malaria Control Programme from 1997–2007. Results The prevalence of patients with parasitaemia on day 2 was higher in the east compared to the west (east: 20%, west: 9%, OR 2.47, 95% CI: 1.77, 3.45). In addition, the prevalence of day-2 parasitaemia increased over time (OR for each year = 1.10, 95% CI: 1.03, 1.19). After controlling for initial parasitaemia and age, year and region remained important determinants of day-2 parasitaemia (OR for region = 3.98, 95%CI 2.63, 6.00; OR for year = 1.28, 95%CI: 1.17, 1.39). The presence of parasitaemia on day 2 and day 3 were specific, but not sensitive predictors of treatment failure. Discussion Delayed resolution of parasitaemia after AM treatment increased in eastern Thailand between 1997 and 2007, which may be an early manifestation of decreased artesunate susceptibility. However, clinical and parasitological treatment failure after 28 days (which is related to both mefloquine and artesunate decreased susceptibility) is not changing over time. The presence of parasitaemia on day 2 is a poor indicator of AM 28-day treatment failure.

description: We analyze the atom field-effect transistor scheme [J. A. Stickney, D. Z. Anderson and A. A. Zozulya, Phys. Rev. A 75, 013608 (2007)] using the standard tools of nonequlilibrium dynamics. In particular, we study the deviations from the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis, quantum fluctuations, and the density of states, both ab initio and using their mean-field analogues. Having fully established the quantum vs. mean-field correspondence for this system, we attempt, using a mean-field model, to interpret the off-on threshold in our transistor as the onset of ergodicity---a point where the system becomes able to visit the thermal values of the former integrals of motion in principle, albeit not being fully thermalized yet.

description: Individual psychology and cultural context are mutually constituted: environments both afford and reflect certain patterns of thought. Are cultural modes of cognition built into the structure of cities, towns, and neighborhoods? One seminal study tested this hypothesis by comparing the visual complexity of street-level photographs of American and Japanese settings. Such imagery can be an invaluable tool for studying social ecology, but capturing it is labor-intensive, expensive, and challenging to scale. However, the millions of miles captured by mapping applications provide a rich source of stimuli that can be sampled at scale. Using a combination of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and Google Street View imagery, we seek to replicate Miyamoto, Nisbett, & Masuda’s (2006) comparison of built environments in Japan and the United States. In so doing, we revisit cultural differences in perceptual affordances, while demonstrating the use of computational methods for sampling and analyzing the built environment.

description: Abstract Background The purpose of this study is to assess the reliability and validity of the U.S. National Center for Safe Routes to School's in-class student travel tallies and written parent surveys. Over 65,000 tallies and 374,000 parent surveys have been completed, but no published studies have examined their measurement properties. Methods Students and parents from two Charlotte, NC (USA) elementary schools participated. Tallies were conducted on two consecutive days using a hand-raising protocol; on day two students were also asked to recall the previous days' travel. The recall from day two was compared with day one to assess 24-hour test-retest reliability. Convergent validity was assessed by comparing parent-reports of students' travel mode with student-reports of travel mode. Two-week test-retest reliability of the parent survey was assessed by comparing within-parent responses. Reliability and validity were assessed using kappa statistics. Results A total of 542 students participated in the in-class student travel tally reliability assessment and 262 parent-student dyads participated in the validity assessment. Reliability was high for travel to and from school (kappa > 0.8); convergent validity was lower but still high (kappa > 0.75). There were no differences by student grade level. Two-week test-retest reliability of the parent survey (n = 112) ranged from moderate to very high for objective questions on travel mode and travel times (kappa range: 0.62 - 0.97) but was substantially lower for subjective assessments of barriers to walking to school (kappa range: 0.31 - 0.76). Conclusions The student in-class student travel tally exhibited high reliability and validity at all elementary grades. The parent survey had high reliability on questions related to student travel mode, but lower reliability for attitudinal questions identifying barriers to walking to school. Parent survey design should be improved so that responses clearly indicate issues that influence parental decision making in regards to their children's mode of travel to school.

description: We introduce a Hamiltonian for fermions on a lattice and prove a theorem regarding its topological properties. We identify the topological criterion as a $\mathbb{Z}_2-$ topological invariant $p(\textbf{k})$ (the Pfaffian polynomial). The topological invariant is not only the first Chern number, but also the sign of the Pfaffian polynomial coming from a notion of duality. Such Hamiltonian can describe non-trivial Chern insulators, single band superconductors or multiorbital superconductors. The topological features of these families are completely determined as a consequence of our theorem. Some specific model examples are explicitly worked out, with the computation of different possible topological invariants.

description: Abstract Background Health Human Resource (HHR) ratios are one measure of workforce supply, and are often expressed as a ratio in the number of health professionals to a sub-set of the population. In this study, we explore national trends in HHR among physical therapists (PTs) across Canada. Methods National population data were combined with provincial databases of registered physical therapists in order to estimate the HHR ratio in 2005, and to establish trends between 1991 and 2005. Results The national HHR ratio was 4.3 PTs per 10,000 population in 1991, which increased to 5.0 by 2000. In 2005, the HHR ratios varied widely across jurisdictions; however, we estimate that the national average dropped to 4.8 PTs per 10,000. Although the trend in HHR between 1991 and 2005 suggests positive growth of 11.6%, we have found negative growth of 4.0% in the latter 5-years of this study period. Conclusion Demand for rehabilitation services is projected to escalate in the next decade. Identifying benchmarks or targets regarding the optimal number of PTs, along with other health professionals working within inter professional teams, is necessary to establish a stable supply of health providers to meet the emerging rehabilitation and mobility needs of an aging and increasingly complex Canadian population.

description: Deriving the expansion history of the Universe is a major goal of modern cosmology. To date, the most accurate measurements have been obtained with Type Ia Supernovae and Baryon Acoustic Oscillations, providing evidence for the existence of a transition epoch at which the expansion rate changes from decelerated to accelerated. However, these results have been obtained within the framework of specific cosmological models that must be implicitly or explicitly assumed in the measurement. It is therefore crucial to obtain measurements of the accelerated expansion of the Universe independently of assumptions on cosmological models. Here we exploit the unprecedented statistics provided by the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) Data Release 9 to provide new constraints on the Hubble parameter $H(z)$ using the em cosmic chronometers approach. We extract a sample of more than 130000 of the most massive and passively evolving galaxies, obtaining five new cosmology-independent $H(z)$ measurements in the redshift range $0.3

description: Abstract: Purpose: Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a clustering of cardiovascular disease risk factors that identifies individuals with the highest risk for heart disease. Two factors that may influence the MS are physical activity and aerobic fitness. This study determined if adolescent with the MS had low levels of aerobic fitness and physical activity as children. Methods: This longitudinal, exploratory study had 389 participants: 51% girls, 84% Caucasian, 12% African American, 1% Hispanic, and 3% other races, from the State of North Carolina. Habitual physical activity (PA survey), aerobic fitness (VO2max), body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and lipids obtained at 7–10 y of age were compared to their results obtained 7 y later at ages 14–17 y. Results: Eighteen adolescents (4.6%) developed 3 or more characteristics of the MS. Logistic regression, adjusting for BMI percentile, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels, found that adolescents with the MS were 6.08 (95%CI = 1.18–60.08) times more likely to have low aerobic fitness as children and 5.16 (95%CI = 1.06–49.66) times more likely to have low PA levels. Conclusion: Low levels of childhood physical activity and aerobic fitness are associated with the presence of the metabolic syndrome in adolescents. Thus, efforts need to begin early in childhood to increase exercise.

description: Addiction, as a nervous disease, can be analysed using mathematical modelling and computer simulations. In this paper, we use an existing mathematical model to predict and simulate human brain response to the consumption of a single dose of methamphetamine. The model is implemented and coded in Matlab. Three types of personalities including introverts, ambiverts and extroverts are studied. The parameters of the mathematical model are calibrated and optimized, according to psychological theories, using a real coded genetic algorithm. The simulations show significant correlation between people response to methamphetamine abuse and their personality. They also show that one of the causes of tendency to stimulants roots in consumers personality traits. The results can be used as a tool for reducing attitude towards addiction.

description: Abstract
                Background
                Sports nutrition is a constantly evolving field with hundreds of research papers published annually. In the year 2017 alone, 2082 articles were published under the key words ‘sport nutrition’. Consequently, staying current with the relevant literature is often difficult.
                Methods
                This paper is an ongoing update of the sports nutrition review article originally published as the lead paper to launch the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition in 2004 and updated in 2010. It presents a well-referenced overview of the current state of the science related to optimization of training and performance enhancement through exercise training and nutrition. Notably, due to the accelerated pace and size at which the literature base in this research area grows, the topics discussed will focus on muscle hypertrophy and performance enhancement. As such, this paper provides an overview of: 1.) How ergogenic aids and dietary supplements are defined in terms of governmental regulation and oversight; 2.) How dietary supplements are legally regulated in the United States; 3.) How to evaluate the scientific merit of nutritional supplements; 4.) General nutritional strategies to optimize performance and enhance recovery; and, 5.) An overview of our current understanding of nutritional approaches to augment skeletal muscle hypertrophy and the potential ergogenic value of various dietary and supplemental approaches.
                Conclusions
                This updated review is to provide ISSN members and individuals interested in sports nutrition with information that can be implemented in educational, research or practical settings and serve as a foundational basis for determining the efficacy and safety of many common sport nutrition products and their ingredients.

description: Morally courageous behavior is regarded as highly socially desirable, and still, powerful psychological barriers seem to inhibit it. In the present study, we use an experience sampling approach to investigate intervention against observed norm violations in everyday life. Participants report situations in their life where they could have intervened after witnessing a norm violation. This behaviour of moral courage is tested in its associations with different personality traits and different characteristics of the situation in which the norm violation occured.

description: We examine a classically-chaotic system consisting of two reservoirs of particles connected by a channel containing oscillating potential-energy barriers. We investigate whether such a system can preferentially pump particles from one reservoir to the other, a process often called "quantum pumping." We show how to make a "particle diode" which under specified conditions permits net particle pumping in only one direction. Then we examine systems having symmetric barriers. We find that if all initial particle energies are considered, a system with symmetric barriers cannot preferentially pump particles. However, if only finite initial energy bands are considered, the system can create net particle transport in either direction. We study the system classically, semiclassically, and quantum mechanically, and find that the quantum description cannot be fully understood without the insight gained from classical and semiclassical analysis.

description: Abstract Introduction Activation status of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway in breast cancer brain metastases (BCBMs) is largely unknown. We examined expression of phospho(p)-AKT, p-S6, and phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) in BCBMs and their implications for overall survival (OS) and survival after BCBMs. Secondary analyses included PI3K pathway activation status and associations with time to distant recurrence (TTDR) and time to BCBMs. Similar analyses were also conducted among the subset of patients with triple-negative BCBMs. Methods p-AKT, p-S6, and PTEN expression was assessed with immunohistochemistry in 52 BCBMs and 12 matched primary BCs. Subtypes were defined as hormone receptor (HR)+/HER2-, HER2+, and triple-negative (TNBC). Survival analyses were performed by using a Cox model, and survival curves were estimated with the Kaplan-Meier method. Results Expression of p-AKT and p-S6 and lack of PTEN (PTEN-) was observed in 75%, 69%, and 25% of BCBMs. Concordance between primary BCs and matched BCBMs was 67% for p-AKT, 58% for p-S6, and 83% for PTEN. PTEN- was more common in TNBC compared with HR+/HER2- and HER2+. Expression of p-AKT, p-S6, and PTEN- was not associated with OS or survival after BCBMs (all, P > 0.06). Interestingly, among all patients, PTEN- correlated with shorter time to distant and brain recurrence. Among patients with TNBC, PTEN- in BCBMs was associated with poorer overall survival. Conclusions The PI3K pathway is active in most BCBMs regardless of subtype. Inhibition of this pathway represents a promising therapeutic strategy for patients with BCBMs, a group of patients with poor prognosis and limited systemic therapeutic options. Although expression of the PI3K pathway did not correlate with OS and survival after BCBM, PTEN- association with time to recurrence and OS (among patients with TNBC) is worthy of further study.

description: The only relativistic reflection model that implements a parameter relating the intensity incident on an accretion disk to the observed intensity is relxill. The parameter used in earlier versions of this model, referred to as the reflection strength, is unsatisfactory, and it has been superseded by a parameter that provides insight into the accretion geometry, namely the reflection fraction. The reflection fraction is defined as the ratio of the coronal intensity illuminating the disk to the coronal intensity that reaches the observer. The relxill model combines a general relativistic ray-tracing code and a photoionization code to compute the component of radiation reflected from an accretion that is illuminated by an internal source. The reflection fraction is a particularly important parameter for relativistic models with well-defined geometry, such as the lamppost model, which is a focus of this paper. Relativistic spectra are compared for three inclinations and for four values of the key parameter of the lamppost model, namely the height above the black hole of the illuminating, on-axis point source. In all cases, the strongest reflection is produced for low source heights and high spin. A low-spin black hole is shown to be incapable of producing enhanced relativistic reflection. Results for the relxill model are compared to those obtained with other models and a Monte Carlo simulation. Fitting data using the relxill model and the recently implemented parameter the reflection fraction, one can constrain the geometry of a system, under the assumption of a lamppost-like accretion geometry. The reflection fraction is independent of such system parameters as inclination and black hole spin. The reflection fraction parameter was implemented with the name refl_frac in all flavors of the relxill model, and the nonrelativistic reflection model xillver, in v0.4a (18 January 2016).

description: The formation process of fossil groups (FGs) is still under debate,
 and due to their relative rarity large samples of such objects are
 still missing. Based on the large spectroscopic catalogue of haloes
 and galaxies by Tinker, we extracted a sample of 87 FG candidates and
 100 non-FGs. For all the objects with images available in UNIONS, in
 the u and r bands, and/or in an extra r-band processed to preserve all
 low surface brightness features (rLSB hereby), we made a 2D
 photometric fit of the brightest group galaxy (BGG) with GALFIT with
 one or two Sersic components. We also analysed how the subtraction of
 intracluster light contribution modifies the BGG properties. From the
 SDSS spectra available for the BGGs of 65 FGs and 82 non-FGs, we
 extracted the properties of their stellar populations with Firefly.

 We find that a single Sersic profile can fit most objects in the u
 band, while two Sersics are needed in the r and rLSB bands, both for
 FGs and non-FGs. Non-FG BGGs cover a larger range of Sersic index. FG
 BGGs follow the Kormendy relation previously derived for almost one
 thousand brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) by Chu et al. (2022), while
 non-FGs BGGs are in majority located below this relation, with fainter
 mean surface brightnesses. This suggests that FG BGGs have evolved
 similarly to BCGs, and non-FG BGGs have evolved differently from both
 FG BGGs and BCGs. All the above properties can be strongly modified by
 the subtraction of intracluster light contribution. Based on spectral
 fitting, the stellar populations of FG and non-FG BGGs do not differ
 significantly.

 The morphological properties and the Kormendy relation of FG and
 non-FG BGGs differ, suggesting they have had different formation
 histories. However, it is not possible to trace differences in their
 stellar populations or in their large scale distributions.

description: Houser C, Carswell A, Chittle B, Johnson G, Caschera A, Smith A. 2024. Relative energy and perceived impact of vessel-generated waves in fetch-limited environments. Lake Reserv Manag. 40:285–302 Vessel-generated waves (or wakes) are perceived as an important stressor in both marine and freshwater systems, and they are an increasingly important focus of coastal management. Recent studies suggest that wakes account for a significant portion of the total wave energy in fetch-limited environments and in turn have the potential to resuspend sediment, erode shorelines, degrade water quality, damage infrastructure, and disrupt aquatic ecosystems, in addition to being considered a safety hazard and a nuisance. To assess the relative contribution of wakes to the total wave energy, monitoring was completed at 32 sites across 7 fetch-limited lakes in Ontario, Canada between 2020 and 2023. The percent wake energy was inversely related to the average fetch length, with deviations to the relationship dependent on whether the site was open, an embayment or along a narrow section of the lake. A survey of property owners and residents suggests that the perceived impact of wakes also varies with the fetch length. Shoreline erosion and degraded water quality were identified as primary impacts of wakes in lakes with the smallest average fetch, but very few respondents provided direct evidence of boat wake impacts. Most respondents described vessel operation, experience of the vessel operator and conflict over different boating uses as the primary issues associated with wakes. While boat wakes may contribute a significant portion of the wave energy in fetch-limited lakes, further research is required to determine when and where they may represent a physical and ecological stressor rather than being just a nuisance.

description: Gifford SR, St. Amand A, Graham JL, Foster GM, Sauve C, Clark D, Schroeder-Larkins H. 2024. Comparison of imaging flow cytometry and microscopy for freshwater algal bloom detection. Lake Reserv Manage. 40:221–235. Imaging flow cytometry (IFC) is an emerging tool that allows for rapid identification and enumeration of phytoplankton in freshwater systems. However, few studies have assessed the effects of preservation on IFC results or compared live IFC and microscopy results in freshwater systems. Understanding the effects of preservation and differences between IFC and microscopy will improve interpretation of these data and inform strategies to use IFC-based approaches in freshwater systems. Our study objectives were to compare IFC and phase contrast with epifluorescence microscopy as techniques for phytoplankton identification and enumeration, and the effects of sample preservation with an emphasis on taxa forming harmful cyanobacterial blooms (HCBs). During June through October 2020, samples were collected from 2 lakes in the Finger Lakes region of New York. Live and preserved samples were analyzed by laboratory-based IFC, and preserved samples were analyzed by microscopy. The IFC approach captured community dynamics while detecting potential cyanobacterial bloom-forming taxa earlier and at lower abundances than microscopy. Laboratory-based IFC allowed for an intermediate level of taxonomic information when compared to microscopy, gross techniques, such as extracted chlorophyll a or fluorescence sensors, and field-based operation of IFC approaches. The laboratory-based application of IFC in this study allowed receipt of results in 5 d or less, a substantial improvement over microscopy, which can be time-consuming to conduct. However, the laboratory-based IFC approach had some limitations. Imaging flow cytometry-estimated biovolume may be less accurate than microscopy for some taxa because of the algorithms used to calculate biovolume, particularly for chrysophytes and coccoid cyanobacteria. Colonial dissociation during preservation appeared to affect detection of Microcystis by IFC less than for other fragile bloom-forming taxa like chrysophytes. Our study results advance understanding of how IFC may translate to field-based approaches for early harmful algal bloom indicators in freshwater.

description: Abstract Background It has been well-documented that Americans have shifted towards eating out more and cooking at home less. However, little is known about whether these trends have continued into the 21st century, and whether these trends are consistent amongst low-income individuals, who are increasingly the target of public health programs that promote home cooking. The objective of this study is to examine how patterns of home cooking and home food consumption have changed from 1965 to 2008 by socio-demographic groups. Methods This is a cross-sectional analysis of data from 6 nationally representative US dietary surveys and 6 US time-use studies conducted between 1965 and 2008. Subjects are adults aged 19 to 60 years (n= 38,565 for dietary surveys and n=55,424 for time-use surveys). Weighted means of daily energy intake by food source, proportion who cooked, and time spent cooking were analyzed for trends from 1965–1966 to 2007–2008 by gender and income. T-tests were conducted to determine statistical differences over time. Results The percentage of daily energy consumed from home food sources and time spent in food preparation decreased significantly for all socioeconomic groups between 1965–1966 and 2007–2008 (p ≤ 0.001), with the largest declines occurring between 1965 and 1992. In 2007–2008, foods from the home supply accounted for 65 to 72% of total daily energy, with 54 to 57% reporting cooking activities. The low income group showed the greatest decline in the proportion cooking, but consumed more daily energy from home sources and spent more time cooking than high income individuals in 2007–2008 (p ≤ 0.001). Conclusions US adults have decreased consumption of foods from the home supply and reduced time spent cooking since 1965, but this trend appears to have leveled off, with no substantial decrease occurring after the mid-1990’s. Across socioeconomic groups, people consume the majority of daily energy from the home food supply, yet only slightly more than half spend any time cooking on a given day. Efforts to boost the healthfulness of the US diet should focus on promoting the preparation of healthy foods at home while incorporating limits on time available for cooking.
Search for massive WH resonances decaying into the l nu b anti-b final state at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV

description: A search for a massive resonance W' decaying into a W and a Higgs boson in the l nu b anti-b (l = e, mu) final state is presented. Results are based on data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 inverse femtobarns of proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV, collected using the CMS detector at the LHC. For a high-mass ( greater than 1 TeV) resonance, the two bottom quarks coming from the Higgs boson decay are reconstructed as a single jet, which can be tagged by placing requirements on its substructure and flavour. Exclusion limits at 95% confidence level are set on the production cross section of a narrow resonance decaying into WH, as a function of its mass. In the context of a little Higgs model, a lower limit on the W' mass of 1.4 TeV is set. In a heavy vector triplet model that mimics the properties of composite Higgs models, a lower limit on the W' mass of 1.5 TeV is set. In the context of this model, the results are combined with related searches to obtain a lower limit on the W' mass of 1.8 TeV, the most restrictive to date for decays to a pair of standard model bosons.

description: We present the discovery by the WASP-South survey, in close collaboration with the Euler and TRAPPIST telescopes, of WASP-121 b, a new remarkable short-period transiting hot Jupiter, whose planetary nature has been statistically validated by the PASTIS software. The planet has a mass of $1.183_{-0.062}^{+0.064}$ $M_{\mathrm{Jup}}$, a radius of 1.865 $\pm$ 0.044 $R_{\mathrm{Jup}}$, and transits every $1.2749255_{-0.0000025}^{+0.0000020}$ days an active F6-type main-sequence star ($V$=10.4, $1.353_{-0.079}^{+0.080}$ $M_{\odot}$, 1.458 $\pm$ 0.030 $R_{\odot}$, $T_{\mathrm{eff}}$ = 6460 $\pm$ 140 K). A notable property of WASP-121 b is that its orbital semi-major axis is only $\sim$1.15 times larger than its Roche limit, which suggests that the planet might be close to tidal disruption. Furthermore, its large size and extreme irradiation ($\sim$$7.1\:10^{9}$ erg $\mathrm{s}^{-1} \mathrm{cm}^{-2}$) make it an excellent target for atmospheric studies via secondary eclipse observations. Using the TRAPPIST telescope, we indeed detect its emission in the $z'$-band at better than $\sim$4$σ$, the measured occultation depth being 603 $\pm$ 130 ppm. Finally, from a measurement of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect with the CORALIE spectrograph, we infer a sky-projected spin-orbit angle of $257.8_{-5.5}^{+5.3}$ deg. This result indicates a significant misalignment between the spin axis of the host star and the orbital plane of the planet, the planet being in a nearly polar orbit. Such a high misalignment suggests a migration of the planet involving strong dynamical events with a third body.

description: Most criminal cases are adjudicated by guilty pleas. The Supreme Court has held that guilty pleas must be made voluntarily (Brady v. United States, 1970). Although most defendants report that their pleas are voluntary, many also report that they did not feel a part of the decision-making process and were not ultimately responsible for the decision (Redlich & Summers, 2012). This project will examine how different legal actors (i.e., defendants, judges) perceive the voluntariness of a plea decision by drawing on social psychological theories including the actor/observer bias and procedural justice.
