description: We investigate the correlations in galaxy shapes between optical and radio wavelengths using archival observations of the COSMOS field. Cross-correlation studies between different wavebands will become increasingly important for precision cosmology as future large surveys may be dominated by systematic rather than statistical errors. In the case of weak lensing, galaxy shapes must be measured to extraordinary accuracy (shear systematics of $< 0.01\%$) in order to achieve good constraints on dark energy parameters. By using shape information from overlapping surveys in optical and radio bands, robustness to systematics may be significantly improved without loss of constraining power. Here we use HST-ACS optical data, VLA radio data, and extensive simulations to investigate both our ability to make precision measurements of source shapes from realistic radio data, and to constrain the intrinsic astrophysical scatter between the shapes of galaxies as measured in the optical and radio wavebands. By producing a new image from the VLA-COSMOS L-band radio visibility data that is well suited to galaxy shape measurements, we are able to extract precise measurements of galaxy position angles. Comparing to corresponding measurements from the HST optical image, we set a lower limit on the intrinsic astrophysical scatter in position angles, between the optical and radio bands, of $σ_α> 0.212π$ radians (or $38.2^{\circ}$) at a $95\%$ confidence level.

description: Σκοπός της παρούσας διπλωματικής εργασίας ήταν να αξιολογήσει τις ψυχομετρικές ιδιότητες της ελληνικής μετάφρασης του ερωτηματολογίου PERMA Profiler και να αξιολογήσει τη σχέση του ερωτηματολογίου με τις κλίμακες του άγχους (STAI), της κατάθλιψης (CES-D) και της αυτοκτονικότητας (RASS). To PERMA Profiler είναι ένα σύντομο, αυτοσυμπληρούμενο ερωτηματολόγιο, σχεδιασμένο να μετρά την ευζωία. Με βάση τη θεωρία του Seligman, στην οποία βασίζεται, η ευζωία αποτελείται από πέντε βασικούς πυλώνες, οι οποίοι είναι: τα θετικά συναισθήματα, οι σχέσεις, η ενασχόληση, το νόημα της ζωής και η επίτευξη. Η εσωτερική συνέπεια ελέγχθηκε με τον συντελεστή alpha του Cronbach και οι συσχετίσεις του με τις άλλες κλίμακες ελέγχθηκαν με χρησιμοποιώντας τον συντελεστή συσχέτισης Pearson. Τα δεδομένα της παρούσας έρευνας έδειξαν η εσωτερική δομή διαφέρει από το αρχικό προτεινόμενο μοντέλο αλλά γενικά βρίσκεται σε συμφωνία με μετέπειτα ερευνητικά ευρήματα. Η ελληνική έκδοση του ερωτηματολογίου PERMA Profiler είναι ένα αξιόπιστο εργαλείο για τη μέτρηση της ευζωίας στον ελληνικό πληθυσμό
description: The aim of the present thesis was to assess the psychometric properties of the Greek translation of the Perma Profiler questionnaire and to assess its relationship with measurements of anxiety (STAI), depression (CES-D) and suicidality (RASS). The PERMA Profiler is a brief, self-reported questionnaire which assess the wellbeing. According to Seligman’s theory that it was based on, wellbeing is composed of five pillars, which are: positive emotions, engagement, relationships, meaning in life and accomplishments. Τhe internal consistency was examined using Cronbach’s alpha and correlations with the other measurements were examined using Pearson’s correlation. The data derived from the current study showed that the internal structure deviates from the original proposed model but in general it is in accord with later research findings. The Greek version of the PERMA Profiler questionnaire is an appropriate tool to measure the wellbeing in Greek population

description: Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde ein speziell für die Lebensmittelanwendung ausgelegtes Kapselmodellsystem entwickelt und in Hinblick auf die Bildungskinetik, rheologischen Eigenschaften, Strukturanalyse und Dynamik der die Kapseln umgebenden Hüllschichten charakterisiert. Hierbei wurde auf ein einfaches Kapselmodellsystem, das auf der ionischen Vernetzung von Alginat und Pektin mit mehrwertigen Kationen basiert, zurückgegriffen. Nach geeigneter Stoffauswahl und erfolgreicher Optimierung des Herstellungsprozesses rückte insbesondere die Charakterisierung der mechanischen Stabilität der Kapselmembranen in den Fokus dieser Arbeit. Systematische rheologische Untersuchungen der mechanischen Eigenschaften hinsichtlich der elastischen und plastischen Deformierbarkeit der Gelmembranen erfolgten anhand von Squeezing- und Spinning-Capsule-Messungen. Des Weiteren sollte das hergestellte Kapselmodellsystem der Stabilisierung und gezielten Freisetzung empfindlicher Inhaltsstoffe, den Anthocyanen, dienen. In stofflicher und morphologischer Hinsicht wurde anhand erster Freisetzungsmessungen deutlich, dass die Polysaccharidkapseln, bedingt durch die hochporösen, stark diffusionsdurchlässigen Gelmembranen, zur gewünschten Extraktrückhaltung und gezielten Extraktfreisetzung im Darm angepasst und modifiziert werden müssen. Um somit das pH-gesteuerte Darm-Targeting zu erreichen, wurde zum einen versucht die Anthocyan-diffusion durch die Ausbildung von Kompositmembranen unter Zugabe von PLL zur Vernetzer- bzw. Schellack zur Polymerlösung zu vermindern bzw. zu hemmen. Zum anderen wurden die Kapseln mit externen Coatings durch Aufbringung zusätzlicher Polyelektrolytmultischichten (Layer-by-Layer-Verfahren) bzw. einer umhüllenden Schellackmembran versehen. Während die Bildung der Komposit- und Multischichtenmembranen nur zu geringfügigen Änderungen der Freisetzungskinetiken führte, konnte die Membranpermeabilität durch die Aufbringung externer Schellackschichten signifikant vermindert werden. Insgesamt konnte in dieser Arbeit ein speziell für die Lebensmittelanwendung zugelassenes Kapsel-modellsystem erfolgreich synthetisiert werden. Die mit Schellack beschichteten Kapseln bieten die Möglichkeit der effektiven Extraktstabilisierung und nachhaltigen Speicherung mit gezielter Darmfreisetzung. Die zahlreichen systematischen Deformations- und Freisetzungsuntersuchungen konnten hierbei zur Beschreibung und Förderung des Verständnisses des komplexen Gelbildungsmechanismus und der Anthocyandiffusion beitragen.

description: Η παρούσα εργασία παρουσιάζει το παιδικό ιχνογράφημα ως μέσο ανίχνευσης καταθλιπτικής συμπτωματολογίας, σε παιδιά προσχολικής ηλικίας. Σκοπός της είναι η καταγραφή των στοιχείων της παιδικής ζωγραφιάς, με έμφαση στην ψυχολογική ανάλυσή τους και η σύνδεση αυτών με τα συμπτώματα της καταθλιπτικής διαταραχής. Εμπειρικά και ερευνητικά δεδομένα οδήγησαν το μεγαλύτερο μέρος των επιστημόνων στην παραδοχή ότι η ύπαρξη κατάθλιψης εμφανίζεται με διάφορους τρόπους σε παιδιά, ακόμη και προσχολικής ηλικίας. Η παιδική κατάθλιψη περνά συνήθως απαρατήρητη ή παρερμηνεύεται από γονείς κι εκπαιδευτικούς, γεγονός που επιδεινώνει τη διαταραχή. Η έκπτωση λειτουργικότητας που προκαλεί και τα συμπτώματα, που εμφανίζονται τις περισσότερες φορές συγκαλυμμένα στα παιδιά, καθιστούν απαραίτητη την εύρεση τρόπων ανίχνευσης και διάγνωσής της. Το παιδικό σχέδιο αποτελεί δίαυλο επικοινωνίας μεταξύ παιδιών και ενηλίκων ενώ χαρακτηρίζεται ως καθρέφτης του εσωτερικού ψυχικού τους κόσμου. Μέσα από την αποκωδικοποίηση και ανάλυση του περιεχομένου του, των χρωμάτων, των σχημάτων, των γραμμών μπορούν να εντοπιστούν καταθλιπτικά συμπτώματα, επιθετική συμπεριφορά και ψυχικές καταστάσεις άγχους, φόβου, απομόνωσης κι αγωνίας, που δύσκολα ανιχνεύονται με διαφορετικό τρόπο
description: This paper presents the phenomenon of depression and focuses on the appearance of the disorder in preschool children, by analyzing children’s drawings as a means of detecting depressive symptoms. Empirical and research data led most scientists to the assumption that the existence of depression appears in various ways in children, even of preschool age Due to the inability of young children to express themselves with words, the symptoms of the disease, which usually range from aggressive behavior to withdrawal and isolation, go unnoticed or are misinterpreted by parents and teachers A child’s drawing can help adults to get in touch with the inner world and psyche of the child, as through its analysis and decoding of its elements such as the colors, the pencil lines, the representations on the paper, the drawings turn into a useful tool for identifying problematic situations and depressive symptoms

description: The nuclear modification factor is derived using Tsallis non-extensive statistics in relaxation time approximation. The variation of nuclear modification factor with transverse momentum for different values of non-extensive parameter, $q$, is also observed. The experimental data from RHIC and LHC are analysed in the framework of Tsallis non-extensive statistics in a relaxation time approximation. It is shown that the proposed approach explains the $R_{AA}$ of all particles over a wide range of transverse momenta but doesn't seem to describe the rise in $R_{AA}$ at very high transverse momenta.

description: Using the recently obtained Pgq splitting function we extend the low x evolution equation for gluons to account for contributions originating from quark-to-gluon splitting. In order to write down a consistent equation we resum virtual corrections coming from the gluon channel and demonstrate that this implies a suitable regularization of the Pgq singularity, corresponding to a soft emitted quark. We also note that the obtained equation is in a straightforward manner generalized to a nonlinear evolution equation which takes into account effects due to the presence of high gluon densities.

description: A comprehensive theoretical study of the E1, M1, E2 transitions of Ca-like tungsten ions is presented. Using multi-configuration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) method with a restricted active space treatment, the wavelengths and probabilities of the M1 and E2 transitions between the multiplets of the ground state configuration ([Ne]3s$^{2}$3p$^{6}$3d$^{2}$) and of the E1 transitions between [Ne]3s$^{2}$3p$^{5}$3d$^{3}$ and [Ne]3s$^{2}$3p$^{6}$3d$^{2}$ have been calculated. The results are in reasonable agreement with available experimental data. The present E1 and M1 calculations are compared with previous theoretical values. For E2 transitions, the importance of electron correlation from 3s and 3p orbitals is pointed out. Several strong E1 transitions are predicted, which have potential advantage for plasma diagnostics.

description: En række danske kommuner leverer den evidensbaserede programserie De Utrolige År til børn og forældre. Socialstyrelsen understøtter dette arbejde bl.a. ved at stille et datasystem til rådighed for kommunerne. Datasystemet giver mulighed for at indsamle data om De Utrolige År i kommunen samt hente rapporter om indsatsen. Formålet med datasystemet er at kvalificere indsatsen i De Utrolige År i Danmark gennem en bedre viden om effekten af indsatsen. I organisationen kan denne viden anvendes både af de medarbejdere der leverer indsatsen, og på organisatorisk niveau af den administrative og politiske ledelse. På nationalt niveau er et samlet overblik over data om indsatsen inden for De Utrolige År et vigtigt grundlag for løbende forskning i programmet og for monitorering af programmets effekt i Danmark.
Datasystemet giver som udgangspunkt organisationer, der arbejder med De Utrolige År, mulighed for at benytte det validerede testredskab Eyberg Child Behavior Inventory (ECBI) til at følge effekten af indsatsen i organisationen. ECBI har til formål at vurdere adfærdsmæssige forstyrrelser hos børn, som de kommer til udtryk i barnets hjemlige miljø og i samspillet med andre, eksempelvis
søskende og kammerater. ECBI anvendes ofte i forskning i De Utrolige År. I DUÅ datasystemet kan organisationer indberette ECBI-målinger på børn før, efter samt 3, 6 og 12 mdr. efter indsatsen.

Life-Cycle Risk Assessment

description: Nano Life-cycle Risk Assessment (LCRA) is an adaptive screening-level risk assessment framework. The iterative process
 is a semiquantitative evaluation of potential risks of nanomaterials across the product life-cycle to inform early
 decision-making about nanomaterial and novel nanoscale technologies. As an independently funded US partner of the
 DIAGONAL consortium, Vireo Advisors developed a Nano LCRA for occupational, consumer and environmental
 receptors of a graphene composite as a case study. The analysis identifies potential receptors and exposure pathways at each life-cycle stage. These scenarios are ranked
 by applying exposure criteria to identify priority pathways for evaluation. Where possible, potential exposures are
 characterized for the priority pathways and evaluated alongside available hazard data in the peer reviewed literature.
 The risk assessment uses simplified worst-case assumptions to determine whether more detailed assessments are
 warranted to demonstrate safety for the proposed application(s) in functional fabrics. This poster presents the main findings of the graphene-composite LCRA. Outcomes include a data gap analysis that
 identifies gaps in our current understanding of safety for graphene-enabled applications, and a set of research
 priorities to address them. The analysis contributes key findings to guide safety testing under DIAGONAL, and toward
 the development of Safe(r)-by-Design (SbD) strategies.

description: Multi-component generalizations of derivative nonlinear Schrodinger (DNLS) type of equations having quadratic bundle Lax pairs related to Z_2-graded Lie algebras and A.III symmetric spaces are studied. The Jost solutions and the minimal set of scattering data for the case of local and nonlocal reductions are constructed. The latter lead to multi-component integrable equations with CPT-symmetry. Furthermore, the fundamental analytic solutions (FAS) are constructed and the spectral properties of the associated Lax operators are briefly discussed. The Riemann-Hilbert problem (RHP) for the multi-component generalizations of DNLS equation of Kaup-Newell (KN) and Gerdjikov-Ivanov (GI) types is derived. A modification of the dressing method is presented allowing the explicit derivation of the soliton solutions for the multi-component GI equation with both local and nonlocal reductions. It is shown that for specific choices of the reduction these solutions can have regular behavior for all finite x and t. The fundamental properties of the multi-component GI equations are briefly discussed at the end.

description: If it were possible to purchase tumour-spheroids as a standardized product, ready for direct use in assays, this may contribute to greater research reproducibly, potentially reducing costs. Herein, we describe a workflow where uniformly sized cancer tumour-spheroids are mass-produced using microwell culture, cryopreserved with high viability, and then cultured in neutral buoyancy media for drug testing. C4-2B prostate cancer or MCF-7 breast cancer cells amalgamated into uniform tumour-spheroids after 48 h of culture. Tumour-spheroids formed from 100 cells each tolerated the cryopreservation process marginally better than tumour-spheroids formed from 200 or 400 cells. Post-thaw, tumour-spheroid metabolic activity was significantly reduced, suggesting mitochondrial damage. Metabolic function was rescued by thawing the tumour-spheroids into medium supplemented with 10 µM N-Acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC). Following thaw, the neutral buoyancy media, Happy Cell, was used to maintain tumour-spheroids as discrete tissues during drug testing. Fresh and cryopreserved C4-2B or MCF-7 tumour-spheroids responded similarly to titrations of Docetaxel. This protocol will contribute to a future where tumour-spheroids will be available for purchase as reliable and reproducible products, allowing laboratories to efficiently replicate and build on published research, in many cases making tumour-spheroids simply another cell culture reagent.

The model shows a continuous phase transition between a phase with consensus (order) and a phase having no consensus (disorder). The mean field version of the model was already studied. Using extensive numerical simulations, we study the same model in $2$ and $3$ dimensions. The critical points of the phase transitions for various cases and the associated critical exponents have been estimated. The universality class of the phase transitions in the model is found to be same as Ising model in the respective dimensions.

description: Der 'Big Trade Off', den Arthur Okun schon vor über dreißig Jahren formulierte, ist zurück. Ökonomische Effizienz und soziale Gleichheit erscheinen unvereinbar. Oder anders: Moderne Gesellschaften müssen sich zwischen der Scylla hoher Einkommensungleichheit oder der Charybdis von Arbeitslosigkeit entscheiden. Und es sieht so aus, als ob sich die kontinentaleuropäischen Länder wie Frankreich und Deutschland für höhere Einkommensgleichheit und Arbeitslosigkeit entschieden hätten, während die liberalen Ökonomien Großbritanniens und der USA sich für größere Einkommensungleichheit und einen höheren Beschäftigungsstand entschieden hätten. In dieser Arbeit wird argumentiert, dass der Trade Off keineswegs eine angebotspolitische Notwendigkeit zur Aufrechterhaltung der Leistungsbereitschaft der Arbeitnehmer ist, sondern politökonomisch gedeutet werden kann als das Ergebnis von Rent seeking'-Verhalten. Doch im Gegensatz zu dem bahnbrechenden Werk von Mancur Olson sind es nicht die Gewerkschaften, die eine Verteilungskoalition bilden, sondern vielmehr die Leistungselite, die mittels fehlgesteuertem Demand management eine meritokratisch-optimale Arbeitslosigkeit ansteuern, um ihre Verteilungsinteressen durchzusetzen.
description: The 'big trade off', described by Arthur Okun some thirty years ago, is back again. Equality or efficiency, or to put it differently again: modern highly developed economies and societies have to choose between the Scylla of income inequality or the Charybdis of unemployment. Furthermore, it looks like the continental European economies foremost Germany and France sided with more egalitarian ends accepting higher unemployment whilst the liberal economies such as the United States and the United Kingdom choose higher inequality for lower unemployment. In this paper it is argued, that the trade-off is not a supply-side necessity to maintain work effort in a situation of incomplete contracts, but is a politico-economic issue of particular interest groups to seek rents. However, unlike in Mancur Olson's seminal approach, it is not the trade unions which are forming distributional coalitions on the labour market but rather the meritocracy which is happy to misuse Keynesian-type demand management in order to advance their material interests by pursuing a 'Meritocratically Optimal Rate of Unemployment' (MORU).

dementia

description: Introduction: Dementia occurs in up to 80% of Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients long-term, but studies reporting such high rates were published years ago and had relatively small sample sizes and other limitations. Objective: To determine long-term, cumulative dementia prevalence rates in PD using data from two large, ongoing, prospective observational studies. Design: Analyses of data from the Parkinson’s Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI) and a longstanding PD research clinical core at the University of Pennsylvania (Penn). Setting: PPMI is a multi-site international study, and Penn is a single site study at a tertiary movement disorders center. Participants: PPMI enrolls de novo, untreated PD participants at baseline, and Penn enrolls a convenience cohort from a large clinical center. Methods: For PPMI a cognitive battery and MDS-UPDRS Part I are administered annually, and the site investigator assigns a cognitive diagnosis annually. At Penn a comprehensive cognitive battery is administered either annually or biennially, and a cognitive diagnosis is made by expert consensus. Main Outcomes: Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival curves were fit for time from PD diagnosis to stable dementia diagnosis for each cohort, using assigned cognitive diagnosis of dementia as the primary endpoint (for both PPMI and Penn), and MoCA score <21 and MDS-UPDRS Part I cognition score ≥3 as secondary endpoints (for PPMI). In addition, cumulative dementia prevalence by PD disease duration was tabulated for each study and endpoint. Results: For the PPMI cohort, 417 PD participants were seen at baseline; estimated cumulative probability of dementia at year 10 disease duration were: 7% (site investigator diagnosis), 9% (MoCA) or 7.4% (MDS-UPDRS Part I cognition). For the Penn cohort, 389 PD participants were followed over time, with 184 participants (47% of cohort) eventually diagnosed with dementia. The KM curve for the Penn cohort had median time to dementia diagnosis =15 years (95% CI: 13-15) disease duration; the estimated cumulative probability of dementia was 27% at year 10, 50% at year 15, and 74% at year 20. Conclusions and Relevance: Results from two large, prospective studies suggest that dementia in Parkinson disease occurs less frequently, or later in the disease course, than often-cited previous research studies have reported.

Friction-induced Shear thickening: a microscopic perspective

description: We develop a microscopic picture of shear thickening in dense suspensions which emphasizes the role of frictional forces, coupling rotational and translational degrees of freedom. Simulations with contact forces and viscous drag only, reveal pronounced shear thickening with a simultaneous increase in contact number and energy dissipation by frictional forces. At high densities, when the translational motion is severely constrained, we observe liquid-like gear-states with pronounced relative rotations of the particles coexisting with solid-like regions which rotate as a whole. The latter are stabilised by frustrated loops which become more numerous and persistent with increasing pressure, giving rise to an increasing lengthscale of this mosaique-like structure and a corresponding increase in viscosity.

description: In der deutschen Arbeits- und Industriesoziologie ist eine Debatte über die (angeblich) krisenhafte Situation des Faches entbrannt. Dies hat seinen Grund in der impliziten oder expliziten Forderung nach einer gesellschaftstheoretischen Fundierung des Fachs. In dem Artikel wird gezeigt, dass dieser Anspruch nicht mehr angemessen ist; zudem führt er dazu, die Verdienste der Forschung nicht ausreichend zu würdigen. Stattdessen wird für eine Beschränkung auf Theorien mittlerer Reichweite plädiert. Zugleich werden Überlegungen nach dem Gegenstandsbereich der Arbeits- und Industriesoziologie angestellt. Er besteht in der Analyse der Transformation von Arbeitskraft in Arbeit. Damit behandelt die Arbeits- und Industriesoziologie ein für die Entwicklung moderner Gesellschaften nach wie vor zentrales Untersuchungsfeld.
description: In the sociology of work and industry in Germany a discussion has come up about its (allegedly) critical situation. One of the reasons for this assumption is the implicitly or explicitly raised demand of a socio-theoretical foundation of the empirical findings. The article shows that this demand is no longer adequate. If this is claimed to be right the research merits are not valued highly enough. Instead, this article pleads for a limitation to middle range theories. At the same time it considers the object of sociology of work and industry. This is the transformation of working capacity into real work. For this reason, this special sociology deals with a field of research which is still crucial for the analysis of modern societies development.

Οι οξίμες που χρησιμοποιήθηκαν για την σύνθεση των εστέρων προήλθαν από συμπύκνωση είτε της ανθρακινόν-2-καρβοξαλδεΰδης είτε της 4-νιτροβενζαλδεΰδης με υδροχλωρική υδροξυλαμίνη. Η εστεροποίηση επιτεύχθηκε με σύζευξη με χλωρίδια καρβοξυλικών οξέων ή καρβοξυλικά οξέα (που ενεργοποιήθηκαν για να καταστούν δραστικά) για την παραλαβή των επιθυμητών προϊόντων. Οι εστέρες μελετήθηκαν ως προς την ικανότητά τους να αλληλεπιδρούν με το (calf-thymus ή πλασμιδιακό) DNA και τις πρωτεΐνες HSA (Human Serum Albumin) και BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin) με χρήση των τεχνικών φασματοσκοπίας υπεριώδους-ορατού, φθορισμού και ιξωδομετρίας, ενώ η φωτοδιασπαστική τους δράση εξετάστηκε με χρήση ηλεκτροφόρησης με πηκτή αγαρόζης και πολυακρυλαμιδίου σε αποδιατακτικές συνθήκες
description: The main objective of the present work was the synthesis oxime of carboxylates and the study of their DNA and protein photocleavage ability. The oximes used in the synthesis of the esters derived from a condensation reaction of either anthraquinone-2-carbaldehyde or 4-nitrobenzaldehyde with hydroxylamine hydrochloride. Conjugation with acyl halides or activated carboxylic acids gave the desired products. The esters were tested for their interaction towards DNA and the HSA (Human Serum Albumin) and BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin) proteins using UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy, and viscometry. Their photocleavage action was studied with agarose and SDS-PAGE electrophoresis
First Passage Under Restart

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

description: First passage under restart has recently emerged as a conceptual framework suitable for the description of a wide range of phenomena, but the endless variety of ways in which restart mechanisms and first passage processes mix and match hindered the identification of unifying principles and general truths. Hope that these exist came from a recently discovered universality displayed by processes under optimal, constant rate, restart---but extensions and generalizations proved challenging as they marry arbitrarily complex processes and restart mechanisms. To address this challenge, we develop a generic approach to first passage under restart. Key features of diffusion under restart---the ultimate poster boy for this wide and diverse class of problems---are then shown to be completely universal.

description: This qualitative inquiry into Balinese women's experience of the marriage system and fertility options in urban and rural Bali revealed varying degrees of social expectation to provide male descendants for their families. At the same time, economic burdens still haunt them in this development era, and have conflicting implications for family size. Their stories of purusa (patrilocal) and sentana (matrilocal) marriage were complex, being strongly associated with customary law (adat) in traditional society. Paradoxically, however, it was rural women in the study sample who disproportionately opted for the sentana arrangement and limitation of family size.

Dynamical phase transition in large deviation statistics of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation

description: We study the short-time behavior of the probability distribution $\mathcal{P}(H,t)$ of the surface height $h(x=0,t)=H$ in the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation in $1+1$ dimension. The process starts from a stationary interface: $h(x,t=0)$ is given by a realization of two-sided Brownian motion constrained by $h(0,0)=0$. We find a singularity of the large deviation function of $H$ at a critical value $H=H_c$. The singularity has the character of a second-order phase transition. It reflects spontaneous breaking of the reflection symmetry $x \leftrightarrow -x$ of optimal paths $h(x,t)$ predicted by the weak-noise theory of the KPZ equation. At $|H|\gg |H_c|$ the corresponding tail of $\mathcal{P}(H)$ scales as $-\ln \mathcal{P} \sim |H|^{3/2}/t^{1/2}$ and agrees, at any $t>0$, with the proper tail of the Baik-Rains distribution, previously observed only at long times. The other tail of $\mathcal{P}$ scales as $-\ln \mathcal{P} \sim |H|^{5/2}/t^{1/2}$ and coincides with the corresponding tail for the sharp-wedge initial condition.

A Multi-Technique Study of $CO_2$ Adsorption on $Fe_3$$O_4$ Magnetite

description: The adsorption of $CO_2$ on the $Fe_3$$O_4$(001)-($\sqrt{2}$ $\times$ $\sqrt{2}$)R45° surface was studied experimentally using temperature programmed desorption (TPD), electron spectroscopies (UPS and XPS), and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). $CO_2$ binds most strongly at defects related to Fe2+ including antiphase domain boundaries in the surface reconstruction and above incorporated Fe interstitials. On the pristine surface, $CO_2$ adsorbs molecularly at fivefold-coordinated Fe3+ sites with a binding energy of 0.4 eV. Above a coverage of 4 molecules per ($\sqrt{2}$ $\times$ $\sqrt{2}$)R45° unit cell, further adsorption results in a compression of the first monolayer up to a density approaching that of a $CO_2$ ice layer. Surprisingly, desorption of the second monolayer occurs at a lower temperature ($\approx$ 84 K) than $CO_2$ multilayers ($\approx$ 88 K), suggestive of a metastable phase or diffusion-limited island growth. The paper also discusses design considerations for a vacuum system optimized to study the surface chemistry of metal oxide single crystals, including the calibration and characterisation of a molecular beam source for quantitative TPD measurements.
