description: Let $X$ be the projective plane, a Hirzebruch surface, or a general $K3$ surface. In this paper, we study the birational geometry of various nested Hilbert schemes of points parameterizing pairs of zero-dimensional subschemes on $X$. We calculate the nef cone for two types of nested Hilbert schemes: $X^{[n+1,n]}$ and universal families. As an application, we recover a theorem of Butler on syzygies on Hirzebruch surfaces.

description: BACKGROUND: Few examples exist of research capacity building (RCB) in midwifery. As in other jurisdictions, at the turn of this century midwives in the Netherlands lagged in research-based practice. Dutch professional and academic organisations recognised the need to proactively undertake RCB. This paper describes how a large national research project, the DELIVER study, contributed to RCB in Dutch midwifery. METHODS: Applying Cooke's framework for RCB, we analysed the impact of the DELIVER study on RCB in midwifery with a document analysis comprising the following documents: annual reports on research output, websites of national organizations that might have implemented research findings, National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM)), midwifery guidelines concerning DELIVER research topics, publicly available career information of the PhD students and a google search using the main research topic and name of the researcher to look for articles in public papers. RESULTS: The study provided an extensive database with nationally representative data on the quality and provision of midwifery-led care in the Netherlands. The DELIVER study resulted in 10 completed PhD projects and over 60 publications. Through close collaboration the study had direct impact on education of the next generation of primary, midwifery care practices and governmental and professional bodies. DISCUSSION: The DELIVER study was intended to boost the research profile of primary care midwifery. This reflection on the research capacity building components of the study shows that the study also impacted on education, policy, and the midwifery profession. As such the study shows that this investment in RCB has had a profound positive impact on primary care midwifery in the Netherlands.

description: We describe global embeddings of fractional D3 branes at orientifolded singularities in type IIB flux compactifications. We present an explicit Calabi-Yau example where the chiral visible sector lives on a local orientifolded quiver while non-perturbative effects, $α'$ corrections and a T-brane hidden sector lead to full closed string moduli stabilisation in a de Sitter vacuum. The same model can also successfully give rise to inflation driven by a del Pezzo divisor. Our model represents the first explicit Calabi-Yau example featuring both an inflationary and a chiral visible sector.

description: n ankle injury can happen frequently regardless of age and sex, its severity may range from
 simple to very tough conditions leading to total malfunctioning of the joint hindering mobility in
 day to day life. And for patients suffering from stroke and severe accidents, it is difficult to rally
 easily. Clinical treatment for this problem needs the active involvement of a physiotherapist which
 is tedious and tiring resulting in early fatigue and inadequate output. Most of the robot-assisted
 rehabilitation programs involve conventional rigid robots, which have good robustness and input
 signal tracking. However, they are rigid, heavy, and stationery which makes them difficult for in
 house treatment. Soft robotics has become an active research area due to their compliance with the
 natural anatomy, volume to weight ratio, and overall compatibility. However, the difficulties for
 controlling soft robots have remained a challenge for employing soft wearable robots for clinical
 applications. In this reseach work, we have designed a fuzzy-based nonlinear PID controller with
 tracking differentiators, and a higher-order sliding mode controllers which can maintain robustness
 in the presence of a disturbance signal. One problem in robot assisted rehabilitation applications
 is considering the pain signal during exercise. We have developed a simple innovative way to take
 pain signals for control action, the patient is actively involved by feeding the pain signal to the
 controller. The pain signal will be characterized into predefined categories from the
 physiotherapist’s knowledge, a fuzzy controller is developed to generate reference force output for
 the controller from pain feedback and rate of change of muscle elongation. The developed
 controller can track the input trajectory with zero overshoot, zero steady-state error, settling time
 of 0.15sec, and rise time of 0.19sec. The developed models were simulated in Matlab Simulink
 and Simscape’s physical modeling environment
Exotica and the status of the strong cosmic censor conjecture in four dimensions

description: An immense class of physical counterexamples to the four dimensional strong cosmic censor conjecture---in its usual broad formulation---is exhibited. More precisely, out of any closed and simply connected 4-manifold an open Ricci-flat Lorentzian 4-manifold is constructed which is not globally hyperbolic and no perturbation of it, in any sense, can be globally hyperbolic. This very stable non-global-hyperbolicity is the consequence of our open spaces having a "creased end" i.e., an end diffeomorphic to an exotic ${\mathbb R}^4$. Open manifolds having an end like this is a typical phenomenon in four dimensions. The construction is based on a collection of results of Gompf and Taubes on exotic and self-dual spaces, respectively, as well as applying Penrose' non-linear graviton construction (i.e., twistor theory) to solve the Riemannian Einstein's equation. These solutions then are converted into stably non-globally-hyperbolic Lorentzian vacuum solutions. It follows that the plethora of vacuum solutions we found cannot be obtained via the initial value formulation of the Einstein's equation because they are "too long" in a certain sense (explained in the text). This different (i.e., not based on the initial value formulation but twistorial) technical background might partially explain why the existence of vacuum solutions of this kind have not been realized so far in spite of the fact that, apparently, their superabundance compared to the well-known globally hyperbolic vacuum solutions is overwhelming.

Complete algorithms for algebraic strongest postconditions and weakest preconditions in polynomial ODEs

Subjects: subject: Logic in Computer Science (cs.LO)

description: A system of polynomial ordinary differential equations (ODEs) is specified via a vector of multivariate polynomials, or vector field, $F$. A safety assertion $ψ\rightarrow[F]ϕ$ means that the trajectory of the system will lie in a subset $ϕ$ (the postcondition) of the state-space, whenever the initial state belongs to a subset $ψ$ (the precondition). We consider the case when $ϕ$ and $ψ$ are algebraic varieties, that is, zero sets of polynomials. In particular, polynomials specifying the postcondition can be seen as a system's conservation laws implied by $ψ$. Checking the validity of algebraic safety assertions is a fundamental problem in, for instance, hybrid systems. We consider a generalized version of this problem, and offer an algorithm that, given a user specified polynomial set $P$ and an algebraic precondition $ψ$, finds the largest subset of polynomials in $P$ implied by $ψ$ (relativized strongest postcondition). Under certain assumptions on $ϕ$, this algorithm can also be used to find the largest algebraic invariant included in $ϕ$ and the weakest algebraic precondition for $ϕ$. Applications to continuous semialgebraic systems are also considered. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated on several case studies from the literature.

description: We present high-field electron spin resonance (ESR) studies of the honeycomb-lattice material $α$-RuCl$_3$, a prime candidate to exhibit Kitaev physics. Two modes of antiferromagnetic resonance were detected in the zigzag ordered phase, with magnetic field applied in the $ab$ plane. A very rich excitation spectrum was observed in the field-induced quantum paramagnetic phase. The obtained data are compared with results of recent numerical calculations, strongly suggesting a very unconventional multiparticle character of the spin dynamics in $α$-RuCl$_3$. The frequency-field diagram of the lowest-energy ESR mode is found consistent with the behavior of the field-induced energy gap, revealed by thermodynamic measurements.

Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2020

description: In Fifth Generation (5G) mobile communication, the system needs low-profile, compact
 size, low cost, and constant gain antennas for effective communication. Therefore, this
 thesis addresses multi-band patch antennas which are applicable to C-band, X-band, Kuband, K-band, and Ka-bands of communication. The proposed antenna design can effectively operates at eight different frequency bands for various application including 5G
 communication network. Our proposed method to design multi-band antenna based on the
 transmission line mode analysis. Moreover, the slot on the radiating part of the antenna
 and the ground plane is also considered. The designed antenna has small voltage standing
 wave ratio (VSWR), give omnidirectional radiation patterns, high directivity and gain for
 different frequencies. Our design considers octagon shaped circular slot on the patch antenna and defect ground structure (DGS) on the ground plane of the circular micro strip
 monopole antenna for multi band function. It resonates in a range of frequency from 1
 GHz - 40 GHz and dimension 20:27x16:76x1mm3. The proposed antenna system has been
 designed using Rogers RT Duroid 5880 substrate of dielectric constant 2.2 and thickness’s
 of 1 mm, and is simulated by High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software. The
 simulation results shows that the intended antenna system improves bandwidth, gain, and
 optimum reflection loss for the desired frequency.

description: We propose to constrain the gluon Wigner distribution in the nucleon by studying the exclusive diffractive dijet production process in ultraperipheral proton-nucleus collisions (UPCs) at RHIC and the LHC. Compared to the previous proposal in Ref. [Y. Hatta, B. W. Xiao, and F. Yuan, Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 202301 (2016).] to study the same observable in lepton-nucleon scattering, the use of UPCs has a few advantages: not only is the cross section larger, but the extraction of the Wigner distribution from the data also becomes simpler, including its elliptic angular dependence. We compute the corresponding cross section and evaluate the coefficients using models which include the gluon saturation effects. A potential for the measurements of the Wigner distribution at current and future experimental facilities is also discussed.

description: We provide a general discussion of the Liouvillian spectrum for a system coupled to a non-Markovian bath using Floquet theory. This approach is suitable when the system is described by a time-convolutionless master equation with time-periodic rates. Surprisingly, the periodic nature of rates allow us to have a stroboscopic divisible dynamical map at discrete times, which we refer to as Floquet stroboscopic divisibility. We illustrate the general theory for a Schrödinger cat which is roaming inside a non-Markovian bath, and demonstrate the appearance of stroboscopic revival of the cat at later time after its death. Our theory may have profound implications in entropy production in non-equilibrium systems.

description: Anxiety is a very common symptom and closely related to obsessive-compulsive symptoms in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, the association between anxiety and obsessive-compulsive symptoms at the hippocampus network level remains unclear. This study enrolled 42 patients with OCD and 42 healthy controls (HCs), who underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and clinical evaluation. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to investigate the behavioural significance and interactive effects of obsessive-compulsive and anxiety symptoms on the hippocampus functional connectivity (HFC). The mediation analysis model was used to explore whether the hippocampus functional connectivity (FC) network indirectly mediated the relationship between obsessive-compulsive symptoms and anxiety. Results showed that the FCs with the cerebellum, middle temporal gyrus (MTG) and anterior cingulate gyrus (ACG) were increased in the hippocampus FC network in patients with OCD compared with those in HCs. The regions of interactive effects between anxiety and obsession, which are mainly located in the prefrontal cortex and MTG, were positively correlated. The mediation effect is 0.018 between obsession and anxiety on the HFC networks in patients with OCD. The FC between the hippocampus and MTG plays a key role in the relationship between anxiety and obsession.

καθώς και στη λογική συνοχή της. Η παρουσίαση προσπαθεί να αναδείξει τη Νευτώνεια Μηχανική ως μια ολοκληρωμένη φυσική θεωρία,
η οποία μπορεί να οδηγήσει σε ελέγξιμες προβλέψεις. Τα μαθηματικά που εισέρχονται στη θεωρία δεν αποτελούν ξεχωριστό κεφάλαιο,
σάν να πρόκειται για κάποιο ιδιαίτερο εργαλείο που θα χρησιμοποιηθεί στην παρουσίαση των διαφόρων θεματικών ενοτήτων.
Αντιθέτως, κάθε νέα μαθηματική ιδέα κατασκευάζεται ως ο καλύτερος τρόπος μελέτης κάποιας νέας φυσικής έννοιας. Επιχειρείται έτσι
να φανεί όσο το δυνατό πιο ανάγλυφα η άμεση συσχέτιση των μαθηματικών με τη φυσική πραγματικότητα.

Παρά την ανάδειξη των μαθηματικών σε ρόλο βασικής γλώσσας στη μελέτη της φύσης, προτείνουμε τη χρήση υπολογιστή
στην επίλυση των προβλημάτων με τρόπο όμως τέτοιο ώστε να ασκηθεί η φυσική διαίσθηση. Περαιτέρω ο αριθμητικός υπολογισμός
ενός φυσικού προβλήματος οδηγεί με απτό τρόπο στην εμβάθυνση της κατανόησης όλων των πτυχών του αντίστοιχου θέματος.

Στο περιεχόμενο του βιβλίου υπάρχουν θέματα (συναρτήσεις Green, συναρτήσεις δέλτα, συμμετρίες)
τα οποία δεν συναντώνται συνήθως σε εισαγωγικά βιβλία Μηχανικής λόγω του ότι θεωρούνται τεχνικά θέματα που αφορούν ένα
πιο προχωρημένο επίπεδο από αυτό ενός προπτυχιακού μαθήματος. Πιστεύουμε ότι η χρήση και η συζήτηση των αντικειμένων
σε ένα πολύ πρωταρχικό και άρα πολύ απλό επίπεδο θα βοηθήσει τον φοιτητή να κατανοήσει δύσκολες έννοιες, αλλά και να
τις χρησιμοποιήσει για να εξάγει εύκολα αποτελέσματα σε προβλήματα που παρουσιάζουν ιδιαίτερη μαθηματική δυσκολία.

Το βιβλίο συμπληρώνεται με πλήθος ασκήσεων (οι περισσότερες από αυτές είναι πρωτότυπες και δεν αποτελούν αντίγραφα
ασκήσεων από τη διεθνή βιβλιογραφία) που στόχο έχουν να παιδέψουν τον φοιτητή να αναζητήσει/κατασκευάσει ο ίδιος τρόπους

description: A new heuristic model of interaction of an atomic system with a gravitational wave is proposed. In it, the gravitational wave alters the local electromagnetic field of the atomic nucleus, as perceived by the electron, which changes the energy of the system. The spectral decomposition of the wave function is calculated, from which the energy of the system can be obtained. The results suggest a shift in the energy difference of the atomic energy levels, which will induce a small detuning to any given resonant transition. The detuning increases with the quantum numbers of the levels, making the effect more prominent for Rydberg states. We performed calculations on the Rabi oscillations of atomic transitions, estimating how they would vary as a result of the proposed effect.

description: An efficient green chemical approach has been reported to synthesize tryptanthrin alkaloids, utilizing isatin and isatoic anhydride as a substrate in the presence of tetrabutylammonium salt-based ionic liquids (TBA-ILs) as catalyst and reaction medium under microwave conditions (MWs). The reaction proceeds evenly under mild conditions to provide the bioactive natural product tryptanthrins in excellent yields. Besides, the molecular docking studies show that all the synthesized scaffolds exhibit potential binding affinities toward α-amylase, α-glucosidase ligands, GLP-1, and EGFR receptors; the in-vitro α-amylase and α-glucosidase assays show positive inhibition. In addition, the in vitro anticancer activity against A-549 non-small lung cancer (NSLC) cell lines leads to excellent inhibition. The present findings show the therapeutic potential of the tryptanthrins for targeting antidiabetic and anticancer activities.

description: This study presents an experimental study to evaluate the feasibility of using bamboo as reinforcement
 in reinforced concrete beam and bamboo reinforcement contribution in increasing carrying capacity of
 plane concrete beam as well as its effect on deflection of a beam. To achieve this objectives series of
 physical and mechanical properties test on low land bamboo collected from Didesa west wollega,
 Oromia regional state were conducted. Also, one-point loading tests on bamboo reinforced concrete
 beam with different concrete grade were performed to identify their behavior and characteristic
 comparison with plane concrete beam.
 Mechanical properties of bamboo were tested for its compression and flexural strength test. Test result
 were recorded 91.93MPa compressive stress, 102.27MPa flexural strength and tensile strength of
 151.4MPa. Modulus of elasticity 21880N/mm2 were obtained. These mechanical properties of lowland
 bamboo show that bamboo splits can be used as reinforcement in reinforced concrete beam.
 In this study for investigating flexural property of bamboo reinforced concrete beam and plane concrete
 beam total of 32 three-point bending test were conducted. Plane concrete beam fails with crushing of
 the beam whereas all the bamboo reinforced concrete beam samples were failed by pure flexural failure.
 For plane concrete beam a load of11.51KN for M20 concrete grade to 20.54KN for M50 concrete grade
 was recorded and also for bamboo reinforced concrete beam a load of 41.85KN for M20 to 79.34KN
 for M50 concrete grade. This shows presence of bamboo reinforcement improves deflection and load
 carrying capacity of plane concrete beam by 3.25 to 3.89 times.

description: Design and analysis of the robot gripper mechanism for a specific operation in the industry
 have been an active research area recently. This research study was focused on design,
 analysis, and prototype development of an automatic robot gripper mechanism to hold
 coated materials in the electroplating industry. The specific workpieces which are handled
 by the gripper mechanism are vertical pin, horizontal pin, and phase ring hinge pin which
 are the components of the center rotor hub in the aircraft system. In this study, six-bar robot
 gripper mechanism was developed using concept generation method based on the
 evaluation criteria relative to the other mechanisms. Analytically, the entire design
 computations have been done using the vector loop method for the position, velocity, and
 acceleration analysis and newton’s law approach for static force analysis. The capability
 of the gripper robot to hold the specified workspace has been proved using the finite
 element method. Von Mises stress, directional deformation, and elastic strains for the
 gripper mechanism have been done using Ansys Workbench R19.2. The results which are
 obtained numerically showed that, the calculated total stresses for the three workpieces are
 lower than the tensile yield strength of the specified material. In addition to this, the total
 deformations for the three workpieces are also lower than the estimated percent of
 elongation of the specified material. Physical prototype for an automatic robot gripper
 mechanism has been developed in this study to show the functionality of the gripper
 mechanism. Performing simulation and prototype for the gripper robot is not enough, it
 needs further work like performing experimental validation, change the actuation system,
 improve the mechanism, and develop a control system for the mechanism to increase the
 quality and accuracy for the six-bar gripper mechanism.

description: Unsteady-flow simulation of the dam break is performed using HEC-RAS and results are
 mapped using the RAS mapping. Inundation mapping of water surface profile, Velocity and
 depth results from dam failure models and provides a preliminary assessment of the flood
 hazard and provides insight for emergency preparedness. The Unsteady process is for
 gathering and preparing data, creating an unsteady-flow model in HEC-RAS, entry of dam
 breach parameters, performing a dam failure analysis, and mapping of the flood progression.
 Break parameters prediction, the understanding of dam break mechanics, peak outflow
 prediction were shown as the essential for the dam break analysis and flood mapping. The
 results show that dam break is a complicated and comprehensive process involving lots of
 principles. Koga Dam break due to overtopping elongates the time period of high water
 surface level, which increases the duration of risk. The design Probable Maximum Flood
 (PMF) is 570 m3/sec statically estimated and PMF also estimated in HEC-HMS model after
 calibration and validation is 537m3/sec. The calibration result of HEC-HMS model is the
 Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency criteria for the calibration N=0.543 coefficient of determination (r2)
 of 0.7334 daily based. Validation result is the Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency N=0.6 and coefficient
 of determination (r2)=0.8.The result of the simulation under overtopping failure showed that
 the inundated area surrounding Koga River downstream of the dam is about 10.2 km2 with
 maximum flood depth is 16 m, water surface velocity ranges from 0.00 to 11 m/s. Most of
 floodplain areas varied from middle to high flood hazard level, and only few areas had very
 high level of flood hazard especially on river side. Whereas under piping failure inundated
 area is 9.1 km2 with maximum flood depth is 13 m, water surface velocity ranges from 0.00 to
 6 m/s. This flood affect the downstream town Wetit Abay town settlement near Koga
 river and irrigation canal also affected. Dam break has a greater impact on the downstream
 location where is closer to the dam is high flood depth in accordance with the comparison of
 the hydrographs at different downstream locations. The structural flood control measurement
 to be recommended is to construct flood dike and flood gate. The non-structural measurement
 one is to improve watershed management and socialization of flood awareness.

description: Thirty semicarbazone and thiosemicarbazone derivatives (2a–w and 4a–g) from chalcones containing furan and thiophene ring were designed and synthesized. They were characterized by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS. The crystal structure of compound 2r was characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. It crystallizes in the monoclinic system with space group P21/c. The insecticidal activity of the synthesized compounds was screened against Leucania separata and Pieris rapae using beta-cypermethrin as the comparative standard. The results displayed that most of them had remarkable insecticidal activity. Among them, compounds 2e–g showed better activity than beta-cypermethrin against L. separata and P. rapae. Compound 2p also possessed a better activity than beta-cypermethrin against P. rapae. The insecticidal activities of these compounds have been reported for the first time.

The stability constants of these binary complexes were evaluated and order of stability constant found as above Zn(II) > Co(II) > Ni(II) > Mn(II) > Cu(II). Magnetic moment value clearly indicates that newly prepared transition metal complexes of N-[(E)-(2-Hydroxyphenyl)methylen]isonicotinohydrazid are paramagnetic in nature. The stability constants for complexes decrease with an increasing temperature, indicating that the composition equilibrium is exothermic in nature. Also the change in enthalpy (ΔH) and change in Gibb’s free energy (ΔG) were negative for all of the systems which suggested that all of the reactions were exothermic. The change in entropy (ΔS) found positive for most of the complexes which indicate in metal–ligand binding process is entropy favourable. Metal complexes of organic ligand shows moderate antibacterial activity against gram positive and gram negative bacteria. It also possesses prominent antifungal activity for Nickel (II) complex. Biological evaluation results of transition metal complexes show superior pharmacological applications as compared to organic ligand.

description: In light of the Ethiopian Government’s efforts to develop and expand the country’s industrial
 sector, various industrial projects are being constructed all over the country. In this regard, the
 construction industry is playing a very significant role in providing industrial buildings and
 associated accommodations in the large industries underway. Sufficed to mention that a major
 portion of the investments pouring into industrial development is attributed to industrial buildings
 and infrastructure. The investment made by governmental and non-governmental stakeholders into
 this sector is a large amount of capital that needs to be utilized in an effective and efficient system
 to achieve the best possible outcome. However, the trends observed in most construction projects
 are contrary to this, consuming extra time and budget but resulting in unsatisfactory quality. The
 reason for this, among other issues, is the lack of reliable project cost control techniques. Earned
 Value Analysis is a technique used to evaluate and monitor project performance and forecast future
 trends using planned value, actual value and earned value of work performed.
 The study was conducted on the cost control techniques employed in the construction of industrial
 construction projects in Addis Ababa. It aimed to identify the major earned value parameters in
 cost control, to determine cost performance indicators used in earned value analysis, and to predict
 future cost performance and estimates using earned value analysis supported by an excel
 spreadsheet model for industrial construction projects in Addis Ababa. The methodology used was
 a quantitative research approach, mainly through evaluating the primary project data and analyzing
 findings using excel spreadsheets and manual approaches. The research is a type of case study on
 the Bole Lemi Industrial Zone Development Phase II project and Revamping of Powder Plant Civil
 Works project. It analyzed the data from the projects using the excel spreadsheet to determine the
 performance and forecast parameter results and interpreted their meanings for each project. The
 findings show that the excel spreadsheet model for EVA is a simple and reliable method that
 showed a mostly similar result with that of manual calculation. The conclusions drawn from the
 research are EVMS is a better method than the traditional cost control used in these projects. It is
 not a complex concept but rather simple and easily understandable. It can resolve many of the
 problems related to cost and time overruns. Project managers are encouraged to adapt these models
 to their projects. However, due to poor cost accounting and data recording methods EVM is not
 implemented in industrial construction projects in Addis Ababa.

description: Manipulation and quantification of quantum resources are fundamental problems in quantum physics. In the asymptotic limit, coherence distillation and dilution have been proposed by manipulating infinite identical copies of states. In the non-asymptotic setting, finite data-size effects emerge, and the practically relevant problem of coherence manipulation using finite resources has been left open. This letter establishes the one-shot theory of coherence dilution, which involves converting maximally coherent states into an arbitrary quantum state using maximally incoherent operations, dephasing-covariant incoherent operations, incoherent operations, or strictly incoherent operations. We introduce several coherence monotones with concrete operational interpretations that estimate the one-shot coherence cost --- the minimum amount of maximally coherent states needed for faithful coherence dilution. Furthermore, we derive the asymptotic coherence dilution results with maximally incoherent operations, incoherent operations, and strictly incoherent operations as special cases. Our result can be applied in the analyses of quantum information processing tasks that exploit coherence as resources, such as quantum key distribution and random number generation.

description: Many content analyses ofmass media and health messages havebeen conducted, but little is knownregarding the perceptions of high schoolstudents about health-related topics.The authors conducted a content analysisof 218 newspapers collected from25 Arizona high schools published duringthe 2003-2004 academic year.Two independent evaluators read eachentire newspaper, identified qualifyingarticles (n = 95), and categorized contentby the 2005 Dietary Guidelines forAmericans. Evaluators sorted each article’scontent into one or more groupsreflecting the MyPyramid food categoriesand tracked article themes relatedto harms or benefits of lifestyle choices.Articles were also scored regardinginformation accuracy. Categorizing bythe 2005 Dietary Guidelines, the mostfrequently mentioned article topicswere “carbohydrates” or “reduced sugars”in foods (55%), “weight management”(53%), and “physical activity”(45%). In all, 15% of articles includedsome incorrect information in their text.These data show that healthy eating andactive lifestyles are important concernsfor high school journalism students.Journalism and dietetics professionalsshould volunteer with high school journalismclasses to encourage these interestsand to promote greater coverage of nutrition and health issues as well asmore accurate reporting.
Liberation and desire
Creators: name: Goddard, Eileen Lucille
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: This thesis prioritizes the use of Sanskrit primary texts and adopts a philological and comparative philosophical methodology. It investigates the relationship between the enlightened mental state which occurs penultimately to liberation in relationship to the experience of liberation itself, through the lens of desire. The desire for liberation plays a key role in praxis for the Yoga, Nyāya, and Advaita Vedānta schools. However, all desire must be eliminated prior to liberation, which is then understood as a passive and inactive state. By contrast, the 16th century Vraja traditions of Kṛṣṇa bhakti consider both the penultimate enlightened mental state and liberation to be active states, characterized by personal and eternal devotional desire for God. Kṛṣṇa theologian Rūpa Gosvāmi draws on the work of previous rasa theorists in order to establish his unique aesthetic-religious understanding of rasa, which is synonymous with liberation. The correlated siddha-deha doctrine postulates the eternal embodiment of a liberated Kṛṣṇa devotee in a brahman body composed of consciousness and bliss. This thesis culminates in a detailed analysis of potential origins of this perfected eternal body, ultimately suggesting two divergent theories. While each theory provides potential insights, each also raises further questions about whether devotional desire can activate, shape, and sustain the state of liberation.
Differential Distributions for t-channel Single Top-Quark Production and Decay at Next-to-Next-to-Leading Order in QCD

description: We present a detailed phenomenological study of the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD corrections for $t$-channel single top (anti-)quark production and its semi-leptonic decay at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We find the NNLO corrections for the total inclusive rates at the LHC with different center of mass energies are generally smaller than the NLO corrections, indicative of improved convergence. However, they can be large for differential distributions, reaching a level of $10\%$ or more in certain regions of the transverse momentum distributions of the top (anti-)quark and the pseudo-rapidity distributions of the leading jet in the event. In all cases the perturbative hard scale uncertainties are greatly reduced after the NNLO corrections are included. We also show a comparison of the normalized parton-level distributions to recent data from the 8 TeV measurement of the ATLAS Collaboration. The NNLO corrections tend to shift the theoretical predictions closer to the measured transverse momentum distribution of the top (anti)-quark. Importantly, for the LHC at 13 TeV, we present NNLO cross sections in a fiducial volume with decays of the top quark included.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Herein, we have synthesized a series of novel fifteen 2-aryl benzimidazole derivatives 8a–o and tested their bioactivity as potent urease inhibitors. The structures of the 8a–o were elucidated using spectroscopic technics (1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, MS), elemental analysis, and melting point. The urease inhibition activity was evaluated using the urease enzyme inhibition kit. All 8a–o showed higher urease inhibition activity (7.74 to 21.18 µM) in comparison to thiourea and hydroxyurea as standard (IC50: 22 and 100 µM respectively). 8m, 8n, and 8o exhibited the best activity with the IC50 value of 7.74, 8.09, and 8.56 µM respectively. Docking study represented the possible mode of interactions between the most active compound and the residues of the enzyme’s active site. To investigate the cytotoxicity profile of the target compounds, the MTT assay was performed on two different cell lines. The results showed that all 8a–o derivatives display IC50 values higher than 50 µM toward both tested cell lines.
