Delias mira roepkei sanford & bennett, 1955

description: Delias mira roepkei Sanford & Bennett, 1955 stat. rev. (Figs 25-28) The type locality of Delias mira roepkei Sanford & Bennett, 1955 is Mt Hagen. The taxon was raised to species level by Van Mastrigt (2000) who mentioned the presence of two forms in the Hagen population; one with broad black borders on the upperside, the other with narrower borders and paler yellow hindwing patch on the underside that he speculated might represent a separate species. Males collected at the Murmur Pass locations exhibit a continuum of individual variations in the upperside border depth and underside hindwing markings and are not readily dividable into two separate groups. Specimens from Mt Wilhelm (Simbu Province) and the Eastern Highlands are also variable and, on average, have a more peach-colored anal patch on the hindwing underside. Van Mastrigt’s decision to elevate roepkei to species level was based by the supposed sympatry of both roepkei and mira in parts of the Owen Stanley Mountains. Pending genetic analysis, the original taxonomy is adopted in this paper. Among a number of typically white coloured females, two individuals with yellow-colored uppersides have been recorded. (Figs 28-29). Similar yellow female forms have been recorded in a number of species of the D. iltis ̡ D. aroae and D. eichorni groups.

description: We investigate the spatial extension of weakly bound Ne and C isotopes by taking into account the pairing correlation with the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) method and a 3-body model, respectively. We show that the odd-even staggering in the reaction cross sections of $^{30,31,32}$Ne and $^{14,15,16}$C are successfully reproduced, and thus the staggering can be attributed to the pairing anti-halo effect. A correlation between a one-neutron separation energy and the anti-halo effect is demonstrated for $s$- and p-waves using the HFB wave functions.

description: We simulate numerically the dynamics of strongly correlated bosons in a two-leg ladder subject to a time-dependent energy bias between the two chains. When all atoms are initially in the leg with higher energy, we find a drastic reduction of the inter-chain particle transfer for slow linear sweeps, in quantitative agreement with recent experiments. This effect is preceded by a rapid broadening of the quasi-momentum distribution of atoms, signaling the presence of a bath of low-energy excitations in the chains. We further investigate the scenario of quantum quenches to fixed values of the energy bias. We find that for large enough density the momentum distribution relaxes to that of an equilibrium thermal state with the same energy.

Innovations in natural organic matter removal using ion exchange
Creators: name: Dezfoolian, Maryam
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: Ion exchange (IEX) is a viable technology for the removal of natural organic matter (NOM) from surface water. One potential drawback of the IEX process, however, is the need for frequent regeneration of the resins using a brine solution which needs to be disposed of safely. Operating ion exchange systems in biological could potentially be a promising approach. By allowing a viable microbial community to grow on the resins, NOM removal could be achieved through biodegradation in addition to ion exchange. This process, here named biological ion exchange (BIEX), decreases the need for frequent regeneration and prolongs the life of the resins. The aim of this study was to further explore the efficacy of the BIEX process, operating in the long-term, at removing NOM and to investigate different mechanisms involved in the process. Two parallel and identical packed bed ion exchange columns were used in pilot scale, each column with a height of 1 m was halfway filled with ion exchange resin and operated with a filtration velocity of 1 m/h, without regeneration. Also, two parallel continuous stirred tank reactors, each with a volume of 400 mL, were operated in the lab scale, in biotic and abiotic conditions. The performance of the systems was assessed by monitoring the concentrations of dissolved organic carbon, different anions, and UV absorbance of water. In addition, several other parameters (i.e., THMFP, BDOC and ATP measurements, resin morphology) were monitored on a less frequent basis. Laboratory experiments involving biotic and abiotic conditions resulted in no significant difference in terms of performance and NOM removal. This was likely due to the type of reactor (i.e., stirred tank), as well as operating conditions that did not allow for sufficient growth of biofilm. Pilot experiment, on the other hand, had noticeable biological growth and demonstrated effective removal of NOM, after approximately 9 months. Extended NOM removal along with no chloride release after 60 days, positive ATP data through the bed, and significant sulphate release over the course of experiments, indicated that in addition to ion exchange, other mechanisms would be responsible for NOM removal.

description: Heterogeneous nucleation of a new bulk phase on a flat substrate can be associated with the surface phase transition called wetting transition. When this bulk heterogeneous nucleation occurs on a completely-wettable flat substrate with a zero contact angle, the classical nucleation theory predicts that the free energy barrier of nucleation vanishes. In fact, there always exist a critical nucleus and a free energy barrier as the first-order pre-wetting transition will occur even when the contact angle is zero. Furthermore, the critical nucleus changes its character from the critical nucleus of surface phase transition below bulk coexistence (undersaturation) to the critical nucleus of bulk heterogeneous nucleation above the coexistence (oversaturation) when it crosses the coexistence. Recently, Sear [J.Chem.Phys {\bf 129}, 164510 (2008)] has shown by a direct numerical calculation of nucleation rate that the nucleus does not notice this change when it crosses the coexistence. In our work the morphology and the work of formation of critical nucleus on a completely-wettable substrate are re-examined across the coexistence using the interface-displacement model. Indeed, the morphology and the work of formation changes continuously at the coexistence. Our results support the prediction of Sear and will rekindle the interest on heterogeneous nucleation on a completely-wettable substrate.

description: Delias hapalina Jordan, 1930 (Figs 29-30) A new record for the Mt Hagen area. The species is widespread though less common in PNG than in Indonesian Papua and has previously been recorded from Mt Wilhelm and Tari (ssp. kerowagiensis Yagishita, 1993), the Owen Stanley Mts (ssp. owenstanleyi Schröder & Treadaway, 1994) the west Bismark Mts and Porgera in Enga province (CD). Male specimens from Mt Hagen are distinguishable from topotypical kerowagiensis by the narrower black median bands on the hindwing underside and from the Bismark and Porgera populations which lack red median bands on the hindwing. The identity and distribution of potential subspecies of D. hapalina in PNG will be reviewed after comparative study of these populations.

description: We study the structural properties of a quasi-one-dimensional classical Wigner crystal, confined in the transverse direction by a parabolic potential. With increasing density, the one-dimensional crystal first splits into a zigzag crystal before progressively more rows appear. While up to four rows the ground state possesses a regular structure, five-row crystals exhibit defects in a certain density regime. We identify two phases with different types of defects. Furthermore, using a simplified model, we show that beyond nine rows no stable regular structures exist.

description: Delias callista Jordan, 1930 (Figs 31-32) The type locality of D. callista porquaiensis Yagishita, 2003 is stated to be ’Porquia, PNG’ however no such place name is gazetted in PNG and it is assumed that it is a misspelling of Porgera, the site of a large gold mine in western Enga Province, approximately 80km west of Mt Hagen. Male specimens from Porgera and the Ok Tedi area agree with the original description of porquaiensis and are characterized by rich yellow coloration, broad black submarginal bands and triangular shaped black terminal vein markings on the hindwing underside. Males of D. callista from Mt Hagen consistently differ from this phenotype by having a paler shade of yellow on the hindwing underside, narrow subterminal bands and terminal vein markings. A similar form has been recorded from Gumine (IFTA). Females from Mt Hagen have a series of 5 white apical spots on the forewing upperside and 4 – 5 white subterminal spots on the hindwing that are absent or poorly developed in more western areas. The taxonomic status of D. callista populations in PNG and western Papua is uncertain and will be reviewed in a further publication.

This is formulated as a standard quantum limit (SQL) and it has been proven to always hold for the following position measurement: a probe is set in a prescribed position before the measurement. Just after the interaction of the mass with the probe, the probe position is measured, and using this value, the measurement results of the pre-measurement and post-measurement positions are estimated.

Freezing to death in a warming climate : drivers of yellow-cedar decline on Haida Gwaii
Creators: name: Comeau, Vanessa
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: The global rise in temperature and associated changes in climate have led to decline of forests around the globe, across multiple species and ecosystems. This includes yellow-cedar (Callitropsis nootkatensis) decline, which is one of the most severe in North America. I found abundant evidence of tree decline and mortality of yellow-cedar on Haida Gwaii across multiple watersheds and over a range of elevations. The decline on Haida Gwaii parallels the broader yellow-cedar decline in terms of spatial distribution, symptoms, magnitude and timing. Nevertheless, the proposed drivers on the mainland may not adequately explain the decline on Haida Gwaii, due to the more temperate climate and lack of persistent snowpack. I investigated several possible drivers both at the local and regional scale. My results are inconsistent with stand dynamics as a driver of elevated decline and mortality. Neither increased competition, nor aging of a cohort explains the decline. Onset of basal area increment decline and mortality have been accumulating over time, with increased rates since the 1980s. Alternatively, the magnitude and timing of the decline is consistent with well-documented multi-decadal variations and long-term directional trends in regional climate. I found patterns of divergent growth and divergent response to climate among yellow-cedars at the same sites. Yellow-cedars affected by decline were decreasing in growth and negatively associated with warmer drier winter conditions. Whereas, yellow-cedars not affected by decline were increasing in growth and positively associated with warmer growing season temperatures. The limiting factors for declining trees, warm dry winter conditions, are consistent with the hypothesis from the mainland that climate warming has led to root freezing. However, compared to drivers of yellow-cedar decline on the mainland, snowpack plays a less important role on Haida Gwaii. Warming temperatures likely have a more direct effect. I propose warmer winter temperatures have led to a combination of decreased cold-hardening and earlier dehardening, in conjunction with increased frequency of thaw-freeze cycles and freeze events during otherwise milder winters. This exposes yellow-cedar’s fine roots to varying degrees of freezing damage over multiple winter thaw-freeze cycles, causing physiological stress, tree decline and eventual death.

description: Star-galaxy classification is one of the most fundamental data-processing tasks in survey astronomy, and a critical starting point for the scientific exploitation of survey data. For bright sources this classification can be done with almost complete reliability, but for the numerous sources close to a survey's detection limit each image encodes only limited morphological information. In this regime, from which many of the new scientific discoveries are likely to come, it is vital to utilise all the available information about a source, both from multiple measurements and also prior knowledge about the star and galaxy populations. It is also more useful and realistic to provide classification probabilities than decisive classifications. All these desiderata can be met by adopting a Bayesian approach to star-galaxy classification, and we develop a very general formalism for doing so. An immediate implication of applying Bayes's theorem to this problem is that it is formally impossible to combine morphological measurements in different bands without using colour information as well; however we develop several approximations that disregard colour information as much as possible. The resultant scheme is applied to data from the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS), and tested by comparing the results to deep Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Stripe 82 measurements of the same sources. The Bayesian classification probabilities obtained from the UKIDSS data agree well with the deep SDSS classifications both overall (a mismatch rate of 0.022, compared to 0.044 for the UKIDSS pipeline classifier) and close to the UKIDSS detection limit (a mismatch rate of 0.068 compared to 0.075 for the UKIDSS pipeline classifier). The Bayesian formalism developed here can be applied to improve the reliability of any star-galaxy classification schemes based on the measured values of morphology statistics alone.

description: It has been a long-standing goal to create magnetism in a nonmagnetic material by manipulating its structure at the nanometer scale. This idea may be realized in graphitic carbon: evidence suggests magnetic states at the edges of graphene ribbons and at grain boundaries in graphite. Such phenomena have long been regarded as unlikely in silicon because there is no graphitic bulk phase. Here we show theoretically that intrinsic magnetism indeed exists in a class of silicon surfaces whose step edges have a nanoscale graphitic structure. This magnetism is intimately connected to recent observations, including the coexistence of double- and triple-period distortions and the absence of edge states in photoemission. Magnetism in silicon may ultimately provide a path toward spin-based logic and storage at the atomic level.

description: This study investigates determinants of the level of women  participation in urban agriculture
in Wolaita Soddo town. The study sampled 204  women  respondents who have selected based
on multi-stage sampling technique. The researcher employed with structured  questionnaire
in  order  to  collect  data from  the  participants.  The  study  use  econometrics  and  descriptive
method  of  analysis.  Tobit  model  is  used  to  examine  the  determinants  of  level  of  women
participation in urban agriculture, and also used descriptive method of analysis in order to
measure  and  identify  the  extent  of  women  participation  in  urban  agriculture.  The  Tobit
model result shows that age is negatively and significantly affect their participation, on the
other  hand  the  factors  such  as  dependency  ratio,  having  credit,  extension  worker  contact,
land  ownership,  neighbor  influence,  farm  experience,  and  access  to  improve  seed  are
positively  and  significantly  affect  the  level  of  women  participation  in  urban  agriculture.
From the descriptive method of analysis result 22% of women in the study area participate in
urban  agriculture  and  their  extent  of  participation  is  on  average  34.3%  which  is
approximately constitutes; only 26.9% in crop production, only 25% in livestock, and  51.1%
in  both(crop  and  livestock)  activities.  Participant  women  averagely  get  an  income  of  557
birr/month  from  crop  production,  3250  birr/month  from  livestock  rearing,  and  3392
birr/month  from  both(crop  and  livestock).  This  imply  that  based  on  the  finding  that
government  and  non-government  organization  should  pay  due  attention  to  create  ample
platform to allow  women  to participate in urban agriculture, wider community sensitization
and awareness creation on the importance of urban agriculture for livelihood and  economic
security  should  be  undergone  and  finally,  policy  makers  have  to  give  attention  for
agricultural  activities  not  only  in  rural  but  also  in  urban  area  with  gender  sensitive
approach.
DETERMINANTS OF FARMERS’ PARTICIPATION IN COFFEE  PRODUCTION AND MARKETING (THE CASE OF OYDA WOREDA IN  GAMMOGOFA ZONE SOUTHERN NATIONS NATIONALITIES AND  PEOPLES REGIONAL STATE)
Creators: name: TENKIR TENKA

description: Agriculture  in  Ethiopia  remains  the  key  sector  that  provides  lion  share  of  foreign
exchange earnings and the largest labor force employer. Out of total agricultural output
about  95%  was  covered  by  smallholder  agriculture  sub-sector.  However,  a  number  of
factors  limit  farmers  from  participating in coffee production  and  marketing. The  main
objective  of  this  paper  was  to  identify  household  specific  factors  determining  coffee
production  and  marketing in  OydaWoreda.  A  cross-sectional  quantitative  study  was
conducted in a sampled population by taking 214 sample sizes using systematic sampling
method. The tools used in the study were structured interview, focus group discussion and
observation.  To  examine  the  determinants  of  farmers’  decision  to  participate  in  the
production activity and level of participation, Double hurdle model were used. In the first
stage of double hurdle model, probit regression was used to examine farmers’ decision to
participate  in  production.  In  the  second  stage  of  double  hurdle  model  truncated
regression were used to analyze level of participation and income generation from sell of
coffee. The study indicated that farm size, family labor, number of oxen owned, access to
credit, availability of family food, and distance to extension service significantly explain
the  decision  to  produce  coffee.  On  other  hand,  the  number  of  oxen  owned,  farmers
experience on coffee production, number of working family members, and access to credit
service determine the level of coffee production participation considerably. Furthermore,
the study verified that in addition to the quantity of coffee marketed, market price, selling
channels,  selling  time,  travelling  time  from  the  nearest  market  and  market  price
significantly determines the level of income earned from coffee sale. The implication is
that livelihood improvement could be assisted through better participation of farmers in
coffee production and marketing in the area.

description: A new class of spin-transfer torque magnetic random access memory (STT-MRAM) is discussed, in which writing is achieved using thermally initiated magnonic current pulses as an alternative to conventional electric current pulses. The magnonic pulses are used to destabilize the magnetic free layer from its initial direction, and are followed immediately by a bipolar electric current exerting conventional spin-transfer torque on the free layer. The combination of thermal and electric currents greatly reduces switching errors, and simultaneously reduces the electric switching current density by more than an order of magnitude as compared to conventional STT-MRAM. The energy efficiency of several possible electro-thermal circuit designs have been analyzed numerically. As compared to STT-MRAM with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, magnonic STT-MRAM reduces the overall switching energy by almost 80%. Furthermore, the lower electric current density allows the use of thicker tunnel barriers, which should result in higher tunneling magneto-resistance and improved tunnel barrier reliability. The combination of lower power, improved reliability, higher integration density, and larger read margin make magnonic STT-MRAM a promising choice for future non-volatile storage.

description: This  study  intends  to  assess  the  macro  determinants  of  loan  recovery  of  Commercial  Bank  of
Ethiopia.  In  the  study,  Unit  root  test  (stationarity  and  non  stationarity)  and  Co-integration
analysis  for long run relationship  methods were employed from1970 to 2011.  The study makes use
of secondary data and series of Econometrics techniques were adopted, to justify the long run
relationship between  loan repayment  performance and its determinant  over the period of analysis.
Moreover,  the  study  investigates  the  level  of  CBE’s  loan  repayment  performance  and  also
examines  those  various  macroeconomic  determinants  of  CBE’s  loan  repayment.  More  so,  the
study  used  is  estimated  using  loan  repayment  data  (LR)  and  its  determinants  such  as  loan
disbursement (LD), exchange rate (EXR), consumer price index (CPI), Interest rate (IR), gross
capital formation (GCF), and nominal Gross domestic product (Y) from nominal we can get real
GDP  so  we  can  use  either  of  the  two  for  the  period  of  42  years.  However,  the  study  result
reveals   that   there  is    positive   relationship  between  loan  collection  and   loan
disbursement,  exchange  rate,  Gross  domestic  product,  gross  capital  formation  except  Interest
rate  and   consumer  price  index  gross  of  inflation  that  have  a  negative  relationship  and  it  is
insignificant. It was also revealed from the result that there is a long run relationship   between
Loan   repayment   and   all   the   explanatory   variables   in   the   study.  Finally,  the  study
recommend   and   conclude   that   CBE   should  endeavor  to  focus  on  this  will  enhance  their
lending  performance  and  should  formulate  critical,  realistic  and  comprehensive  strategic  and
financial plans to minimize loan repayment defaults based on the corresponding current situation
of   macroeconomic variables.
We’re Small Enough to Close but Big Enough to Divide: The Complexities of the Nova Scotia School Review Process

description: Through interviews conducted in the fall of 2013 and winter of 2014, this paper presents a portrait of the various issues faced by community activists in fighting to keep their small rural schools open amidst constraints, most notably, provincial budget cuts and low enrolment numbers in rural areas. At the same time, school board members seeking to close small schools in rural areas faced their own sets of constraints. Participants were asked to discuss: their experiences in the small schools review process, their suggestions for policy design and implementation, and their notions around what small schools mean to rural sustainability and future economic development. Throughout these interviews, the participants from both contexts highlighted the struggles they faced during the review process and the impact of school closures on their children, their communities, and themselves. In addition to metrocentric (Green & Corbett, 2013) assumptions faced by the activists in the school review and closure process, there were additional issues concerning the configurations of people with different orientations as they attempted to participate in a democratic dialogue within the school closure process. Cet article présente, par le biais d’entrevues ayant eu lieu à l’automne 2013 et l’hiver 2014, un aperçu des divers enjeux qu’affrontent les activistes communautaires dans leur lutte pour maintenir ouvertes leurs petites écoles rurales dans le contexte de contraintes, notamment les compressions budgétaires du gouvernement provincial et le faible nombre d’inscriptions dans les milieux ruraux. En contrepartie, les membres des conseils scolaires voulant fermer les petites écoles dans les milieux ruraux faisaient face à leurs propres contraintes. On a demandé aux participants de discuter des éléments suivants : leurs expériences lors du processus d’examen des petites écoles; leurs suggestions quant aux nouvelles politiques et à leur mise en œuvre; et leurs idées sur le rôle des petites écoles dans la durabilité rurale et le développement économique à l’avenir. Tout au long des entrevues, les participants des deux contextes ont souligné les luttes qu’ils ont affrontées pendant le processus d’examen, ainsi que l’impact des fermetures d’écoles sur leurs enfants, leurs communautés et eux-mêmes. Les participants ont évoqué, en plus des suppositions « métrocentriques » (Green & Corbett, 2013) auxquelles ont dû faire face les activistes pendant les processus d’examen et de fermeture, des enjeux impliquant les configurations de gens avec différentes orientations qui tentaient de participer au dialogue démocratique au sein du processus de fermeture des écoles.

description: The  objective  of  this  study  was  to  determine  factors  affecting  borrower’s  loan  repayment
performance in OCSSCO-Bale zone Goba branch. The frame work of this study was built by four
factors  namely  borrowers  characteristics,  business  characteristics,  loan  characteristics  and
lenders characteristic.  The study used mixed methodology  combining between quantitative and
qualitative  data  through  survey  questionnaires  and  in  depth  interview.  The  main  study  was
conducted  based on quantitative method  and supported by qualitative data. Data were collected
using simple random sampling techniques; accordingly 256 sample respondents were selected
from the total population of 3210 borrowers.  To conduct this study the researcher employed the
logit model. Credit repayment performance was dependent variable and explanatory variables of
the model  include  those  which were hypothesized to have an association with loan repayment
performance.  For  the  purpose  of  this  study  the  researcher  has  constructed  14  independent
variables assuming that they are best to explain the determinants of loan repayment performance
of OCSSCO-Goba branch  borrowers.
The analysis began with a descriptive analysis followed by binary logit regression analysis. The
descriptive  model  used  t-test  and  chi-  square  test  to  compare  defaulters  and  none  defaulters
based  on  explanatory  variables.  The  result  of  econometrics  model  revealed  that  out  of  the
fourteen  explanatory  variables,  six  were    found  to  be  significant.  Gender  and  suitability  of
repayment  period  were  negatively  related  with  credit  repayment  performance,  where  as  loan
supervision, availability of other sources of income, house hold size, and adequacy of the loan
were  positively related with credit repayment performance.  This study contributes significantly
to  the  knowledge  of  microfinance  program  at  large,  where  it  explains  that  repayment
performance plays an important role to ensure that MFIs can continue providing  microfinance
to the micro entrepreneurs without depending on subsidies.

description: Applying the perturbative approach to geodesic equations, we study motion of the test particles in time-dependent spherically symmetric spacetimes created by oscillating dark matter. Assuming the weakness of the gravitational field, we derive general formulas that describe infinite trajectories of the test particles and determine the total deflection angle in the leading order approximation. The obtained formulas are valid for both time-dependent and static matter configurations. Using these results, we calculate the deflection angle of a test particle passing through a spherically symmetric oscillating distribution of a self-gravitating scalar field with a logarithmic potential. It turned out that, in a wide range of amplitudes, oscillations in the deflection angle are sinusoidal and become small for ultrarelativistic particles.

description: The concept of thermal energy was only fully formulated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The search for the understanding of calorific phenomena was what provided the construction and development of the concept of thermal energy. In this work we present the evolution of the concept of heat and thermal energy over time, following a chronological order and the evolution of the ideas and principles in question. For this, a vast bibliographical research on the subject was carried out. The theme has been addressed from the ancient Greek philosophers to the advent of modern physics with the elucidation of the phenomenon of thermal radiation.

Teaching Principals in Small Rural Schools: “My Cup Overfloweth”
Creators: name: Wallin, Dawn C.
name: Newton, Paul
Publisher: name: Alberta Journal of Educational Research
Year: 2015

description: This paper presents the results of interviews with 12 Manitoba and Alberta rural teaching principals regarding their leadership practices in small schools. The overwhelming theme mentioned by these teaching principals was the joy and sense of purpose they found in the relationships they cultivated with children, staff, and community members because of the ‘advantages’ they had working in small schools. The paper details the small schools context within which teaching principals are working in these two provinces and outlines the role of reciprocal relationality that is central to their leadership efforts in small rural schools. Cet article présente les résultats d’entrevues auprès de douze directeurs-enseignants d’écoles rurales au Manitoba et en Alberta portant sur les pratiques de leadership dans les petites écoles. Le thème dominant qui en est ressorti est celui de la joie et le sentiment d’un but à atteindre qu’ils retiraient des rapports entretenus avec les enfants, le personnel et les membres de la communauté et qu’ils associaient aux « bienfaits » de travailler dans une petite école. L’article décrit en détail le contexte scolaire dans lequel travaillent les directeurs-enseignants dans ces deux provinces, et dresse un portrait du rôle de la relationnalité réciproque qui est au centre de leurs efforts comme dirigeants de petites écoles en milieu rural.

Estimation of the relative risk following group sequential procedure based upon the weighted log-rank statistic
Creators: name: Izmirlian, Grant
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: In this paper we consider a group sequentially monitored trial on a survival endpoint, monitored using a weighted log-rank (WLR) statistic with deterministic weight function. We introduce a summary statistic in the form of a weighted average logged relative risk and show that if there is no sign change in the instantaneous logged relative risk, there always exists a bijection between the WLR statistic and the weighted average logged relative risk. We show that this bijection can be consistently estimated at each analysis under a suitable shape assumption, for which we have listed two possibilities. We indicate how to derive a design-adjusted p-value and confidence interval and suggest how to apply the bias-correction method. Finally, we document several decisions made in the design of the NLST interim analysis plan and in reporting its results on the primary endpoint.
