description: This report is the local evaluation of an Intelligent Transportation System deployment for the Cumberland Gap Tunnel and U.S. 25E corridor in Tennessee and Kentucky. This report examines the planning for the deployment and the systems and components used to achieve the goals of the deployment. The goals and expectations of the ITS deployment were to provide updated travel information to drivers in the vicinity of the Cumberland Gap Tunnel and along the U.S. 25E corridor; to improve the integration of the tunnel systems; to improve incident detection, verification, and response times along the U.S. 25E corridor; and to develop, use, and maintain a Regional ITS Architecture. A Regional ITS Architecture, a Strategic Plan, and an ITS Integration Plan were developed and used as the basis to upgrade and expand existing systems, to deploy regional signage, and to enhance communication. The report includes discussions of institutional involvement and the use of a project champion, along with lessons learned from the deployment.

description: We analyze the stress induced and thermally assisted roughening of a forest of superclimbing dislocations in a Peierls potential in the presence of Helium-3 impurities and randomly frozen in static stresses. It is shown that the temperature of the dip $T_d$ in the flow rate observed by Ray and Hallock (Phys.Rev. Lett. {\bf 105}, 145301 (2010)) is determined by the energy of the impurity activation from dislocation core. However, it is suppressed by, essentially, the logarithm of the impurity fraction. The width of the dip is determined by inhomogeneous fluctuations of the stresses and is shown to be much smaller than $T_d$.

description: Association rule mining is an important data-mining technique that finds interesting association among a large set of data items. Since it may disclose patterns and various kinds of sensitive knowledge that are difficult to find otherwise, it may pose a threat to the privacy of discovered confidential information. Such information is to be protected against unauthorized access. Many strategies had been proposed to hide the information. Some use distributed databases over several sites, data perturbation, clustering, and data distortion techniques. Hiding sensitive rules problem, and still not sufficiently investigated, is the requirement to balance the confidentiality of the disclosed data with the legitimate needs of the user. The proposed approach uses the data distortion technique where the position of the sensitive items is altered but its support is never changed. The size of the database remains the same. It uses the idea of representative rules to prune the rules first and then hides the sensitive rules. Advantage of this approach is that it hides maximum number of rules however, the existing approaches fail to hide all the desired rules, which are supposed to be hidden in minimum number of passes. The paper also compares of the proposed approach with existing ones.

description: The Kentucky Transportation Center, the Asphalt Institute, and the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet worked together in order to identify factors that affect asphalt pavement density, and to then evaluate their effect on long term pavement performance.  By determining which variables are most influential to pavement performance (i.e. roller pattern, temperature when rolled, etc.), and then monitoring the attention given to those variables, Kentucky would be able to increase the service life of asphalt roadways by at least 25%, therefore saving as much as $30 million annually on a resurfacing budget of $129.2 million (2007), while still maintaining the current roadway level of service.  Ensuring that the pavement roller is able to roll the surface at the appropriate temperature can result in increases in density of up to 4%. An asphalt mix having 11% voids failed at approximately 400,000 cycles @ 350 microstrains, compared to that same mix at 7% air voids failing at 600,000 cycles @ 350 microstrains, resulting in a lab fatigue life increase of 50%.  Two primary results were found from this study. First, by ensuring the compaction roller reaches the pavement before the temperature is allowed to drop substantially, up to a 4% increase in density can be achieved. Second, by increasing density 4%, lab fatigue life can be increased by as much as 50%. From these results, by practicing proper construction techniques one could conservatively expect to see increases in the service life of an asphalt surface of up to 25% in the field.

description: Which change orders tend to have the greatest impact on Kentucky transportation projects? How can I avoid them on future projects? If I do have a change order, what process can I follow to estimate a fair price for both the Cabinet and the Contractor? These are some of the questions that were addressed by research project Change Orders and Lessons Learned (KYSPR 09‐384) at the University of Kentucky’s Kentucky Transportation Center.  Why the Need for this Supplement?  Traditional research reports through the Kentucky Transportation Center contain a significant amount of scientific and technical discussion regarding the research activities and ultimately how these activities satisfied the project’s objectives. The research report for KYSPR‐09‐384 is no exception. That report fully describes the data mining, statistical analyses, literature reviews, and field interviews that went into developing the results. While these activities and supporting discussions need to be archived through traditional technical reports for future researchers and to answer technical questions on behalf of the Cabinet, a resource that clearly presents the results in a form that is quickly and effectively useful to the Cabinet is needed. This supplement is an implementation resource that presents the products of KYSPR 09‐384 without going into the details of the analyses that lead to the creation of the products. The KYSPR‐09‐384 full technical report contains the full depth of the analyses and supporting discussion if the reader should so choose to need further detail than contained herein.

description: The Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center’s (PIFSC) Cetacean Research Program (CRP) has been conducting visual surveys for cetaceans in the waters surrounding Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) and collecting long-term passive acoustic monitoring data at two sites in CNMI as part of an ongoing effort to develop a record of cetacean occurrence in the region. Visual surveys, conducted aboard small boats (7.6 – 12.2 m), have been ongoing since 2010 off the southern Mariana Islands of Guam, Rota, Saipan, Tinian, and Aguijan (Figure 1). These surveys include the collection of photographs for individual identification, tissue samples for genetic analysis of population structure, and the deployment of satellite tags for assessment of individual movements through the broader region. These surveys have been carried out in partnership with the Commander, U.S. Pacific Fleet Environmental Readiness Division. PIFSC has also maintained long-term acoustic monitoring sites in CNMI since 2010. The various datasets from these efforts are collectively being used to evaluate the seasonal occurrence and distribution, stock structure, and movements of cetaceans within the study area. This report includes a summary of the most recent survey, updates on the status of existing photo-identification catalogs and the creation of new photo-identification catalogs, and summaries of genetic analyses of bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) and short-finned pilot whale (Globicephala macrorhynchus) samples collected in the region, preliminary interpretation of satellite telemetry datasets, and the year-round occurrence of cetacean sounds recorded. The Appendices contain the more detailed reports on the mitochondrial and nuclear DNA analyses of bottlenose dolphins and short-finned pilot whales sampled in the Mariana Islands.
Journals’ Editorial Policies – An Analysis Of The Instructions For Authors Of Croatian Open Access Journals

description: The growing number of publications presenting research findings, the pressure on scientists to produce publications in great quantity, and the shift in the business models of many journals increased importance of journals’ editorial practices, which are well represented in guidelines for preparing the manuscript for submission. Journals have a special responsibility to protect research integrity and to keep trust in journal publishing. This study looked at information on editorial practices in the instructions for authors of Croatian Open Access journals. 283 instructions for authors from all disciplines were examined according to the broad range of publishing issues grouped in hierarchically organized categories. Mostly addressed issues were manuscript layout (276/283) and journal language (269/283). The most common ethical issues among journals from all disciplines were responsibility of author (73/283), funding (52/283), and accuracy (51/283). There are several ethical issues addressed significantly more often by biomedical journals, like responsibility of authors (14/30), publishing ethics (14/30), conflict of interest (12/30), funding (11/30), and authorship (11/30). In comparison with ethical issues common publishing issues like manuscript layout, manuscript elements, and type of paper were richly represented in journals from all disciplines.

description: A radio-frequency (rf) matching circuit with an in situ tunable varactor diode used for rf reflectometry measurements in semiconductor nanostructures is investigated and used to optimize the sample-specific chip design. The samples are integrated in a 2-4 GHz stub-matching circuit consisting of a waveguide stub shunted to the terminated coplanar waveguide. Several quantum point contacts fabricated on a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure with different chip designs are compared. We show that the change of the reflection coefficient for a fixed change in the quantum point contact conductance can be enhanced by a factor of 3 compared to conventional designs by a suitable electrode geometry.

description: Optimal ship forms for minimum total resistance in shallow water Optimal ship forms for minimum total resistance in shallow water: An attempt is made to obtain shallow-water optimal ship forms for total resistance by means of "tent" function representation under the constraints that the main dimensions of the ship and the water-line area were kept constant. The objective function in the quadratic programming is the sum of wave-making resistance calculated by Sretenski's formula and viscous resistance calculated by "1+k" form factor method. Thus, the present method can be used to obtain arbitrary-deep-water optimal ship forms for total resistance. Under equal geometrical constraints the shallow-water optimal ship form is obviously different from the deep-water optimal ship form. It is feIt that for shallow water the wave resistance is much more sensitive to the bow geometry than for deep water. In the optimization process, it is shown that a practical optimal ship form, of which resistance performance was obviously improved, can be reached under a set of appropriateinequality-constraints.

description: Dynamics of polarization optical singularities chain reactions in generic elliptically polarized speckle fields created in photorefractive crystal LiNbO3 was investigated in details Induced speckle field develops in the tens of minutes scale due to photorefractive 'optical damage effect' induced by incident beam of He-Ne laser. It was shown that polarization singularities develop through topological chain reactions of developing speckle fields driven by photorefractive nonlinearities induced by incident laser beam. All optical singularities (C points, optical vortices, optical diabolos,) are defined by instantaneous topological structure of the output wavefront and are tangled by singular optics lows. Therefore, they have develop in tangled way by six topological chain reactions driven by nonlinear processes in used nonlinear medium (photorefractive LiNbO3:Fe in our case): C-points and optical diabolos for right (left) polarized components domains with orthogonally left (right) polarized optical vortices underlying them. All elements of chain reactions consist from loop and chain links when nucleated singularities annihilated directly or with alien singularities in 1:9 ratio. The topological reason of statistics was established by low probability of far enough separation of born singularities pair from existing neighbor singularities during loop trajectories. Topology of developing speckle field was measured and analyzed by dynamic stokes polarimetry with few seconds' resolution. The hierarchy of singularities govern scenario of tangled chain reactions was defined. The useful space-time data about peculiarities of optical damage evolution were obtained from existence and parameters of 'islands of stability' in developing speckle fields.

description: We discuss the idea that collective behaviour of the quarks/partons, which has been intensely discussed for the last 40 years in relativistic hadron-nuclear and nuclear-nuclear interactions and confirmed by new data coming from the ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions, can lead to energetic particle production. Created from hadronization of the quark/parton (or quarks/partons), energetic particles could get the energy of grouped partons from coherent interactions. Therefore, we think that in the centre of some massive stars, a medium with high density, close to Quantum Chromodynamic one could be a source of the super high-energy cosmic rays.

description: We demonstrate the first cavity-enhanced optical frequency comb spectroscopy in the mid-infrared wavelength region and report the sensitive real-time trace detection of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a large amount of water. The experimental apparatus is based on a mid-infrared optical parametric oscillator synchronously pumped by a high power Yb:fiber laser, a high finesse broadband cavity, and a fast-scanning Fourier transform spectrometer with autobalancing detection. The comb spectrum with a bandwidth of 200 nm centered around 3.75 μm is simultaneously coupled to the cavity and both degrees of freedom of the comb, i.e., the repetition rate and carrier envelope offset frequency, are locked to the cavity to ensure stable transmission. The autobalancing detection scheme reduces the intensity noise by a factor of 300, and a sensitivity of 5.4 {\times} 10^-9 cm^-1 Hz^-1/2 with a resolution of 800 MHz is achieved (corresponding to 6.9 {\times} 10^-11 cm^-1 Hz^-1/2 per spectral element for 6000 resolved elements). This yields a noise equivalent detection limit for hydrogen peroxide of 8 parts-per-billion (ppb); in the presence of 2.8% of water the detection limit is 130 ppb. Spectra of acetylene, methane and nitrous oxide at atmospheric pressure are also presented, and a line shape model is developed to simulate the experimental data.

description: Amyloid-β peptides and hyper-phosphorylated tau are the main pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Given the recent failure of several large-scale clinical trials and the lack of disease-modifying pharmacological treatments, there is an urgent need to develop alternative therapies. A clinical grade human CTX0E03 neural stem cell line has recently passed phase I trials in people with stroke. However, this cell line has not been investigated in other neurodegenerative disorders. This study investigates the survival of CTX0E03 cells under conditions based on the underlying AD pathology. Cell viability assays showed a concentration dependence of this cell line to the toxic effects of Aβ1-42, but not Aβ1-40, and okadaic acid, a phosphatase 2A inhibitor. Notably, CTX0E03 cell line displayed toxicity at concentrations significantly higher than both rat neural stem cells and those previously reported for primary cultures. These results suggest CTX0E03 cells could be developed for clinical trials in AD patients.

description: Crucial to a quantitative understanding of galaxy evolution are the properties of the inter-stellar medium that regulate galactic-scale star formation activity. We present here the results of a suite of star formation models applied to the nearby blue compact dwarf galaxies NGC 2915 and NGC 1705. Each of these galaxies has a stellar disk embedded in a much larger, essentially star-less HI disk. These atypical stellar morphologies allow for rigorous tests of star formation models that examine the effects on star formation of the HI, stellar and dark matter mass components, as well as the kinematics of the gaseous and stellar disks. We use far ultra-violet and 24 micron imaging from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer and the Spitzer Infrared Nearby Galaxies Survey respectively to map the spatial distribution of the total star formation rate surface density within each galaxy. New high-resolution HI line observations obtained with the Australia Telescope Compact Array are used to study the distribution and dynamics of each galaxy's neutral inter-stellar medium. The standard Toomre Q parameter is unable to distinguish between active and non-active star forming regions, predicting the HI disks of the dwarfs to be sub-critical. Two-fluid instability models incorporating the stellar and dark matter components of each galaxy, in addition to the gaseous component, yield portions of the inner disk unstable. Finally, a formalisation in which the HI kinematics are characterised by the rotational shear of the gas produces models that very accurately match the observations. This suggests the time available for perturbations to collapse in the presence of rotational shear to be an important factor governing galactic-scale star formation.

description: The Laplace operator in infinite quantum waveguides (e.g., a bent strip or a twisted tube) often has a point-like eigenvalue below the essential spectrum that corresponds to a trapped eigenmode of finite L2 norm. We revisit this statement for resonators with long but finite branches that we call "finite waveguides". Although now there is no essential spectrum and all eigenfunctions have finite L2 norm, the trapping can be understood as an exponential decay of the eigenfunction inside the branches. We describe a general variational formalism for detecting trapped modes in such resonators. For finite waveguides with general cylindrical branches, we obtain a sufficient condition which determines the minimal length of branches for getting a trapped eigenmode. Varying the branch lengths may switch certain eigenmodes from non-trapped to trapped states. These concepts are illustrated for several typical waveguides (L-shape, bent strip, crossing of two stripes, etc.). We conclude that the well-established theory of trapping in infinite waveguides may be incomplete and require further development for being applied to microscopic quantum devices.

The Educational Function Of An Astronomy Reu Program As Described By Participating Women

Subjects: diversity

description: The long-running REU-program is tacitly intended to increase retention and provide "an important educational experience" for undergraduates, particularly women, minorities and underrepresented groups. This longitudinal, two-stage study was designed to explore the ways in which REUs acted as educational experiences for 51women in the field of astronomy, in an attempt to develop a theory of experience related to the REU. Stage-1 consisted of an ex post facto analysis of data collected over 8 years, including multiple interviews with each participant during their REU, annual open-ended alumni surveys, faculty interviews, and extensive field notes. All data were analyzed using a theoretical framework of continuity and interaction, in a search for transformative experiences. Four findings emerged, related to developing understandings of the nature of professional scientific work, the scientific process, the culture of academia, and an understanding of the "self." Analysis provided an initial theory that was used to design the Stage-2 interview protocol. In Stage-2, over 10 hours of interviews were conducted with 8 participants selected for their potential to disconfirm the initial theory. Results indicate that the REU provided a limited impact in terms of participants' knowledge of professional astronomy as a largely computer-based endeavor. The REU did not provide a substantive educational experience related to the nature of scientific work, the scientific process, the culture of academia, participants' conceptions about themselves as situated in science, or other aspects of the "self. Instead, the data suggests that these women began the REU with pre-existing and remarkably strong conceptions in these areas, and that the REU did not function to alter those states. These conceptions were frequently associated with other mentors/scientist interactions, from middle school into the undergraduate years. Instructors and family members also served as crucial forces in shaping highly developed, stable science identities. Sustained relationships with mentors were particularly transformational. These findings motivate an ongoing research agenda of long-term mentoring relationships for women in the sciences, at a variety of stages and across multiple disciplines.

On the dissipative non-minimal braneworld inflation

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: We study the effects of the non-minimal coupling on the dissipative dynamics of the warm inflation in a braneworld setup, where the inflaton field is non-minimally coupled to induced gravity on the warped DGP brane. We study with details the effects of the non-minimal coupling and dissipation on the inflationary dynamics on the normal DGP branch of this scenario in the high-dissipation and high-energy regime. We show that incorporation of the non-minimal coupling in this setup decreases the number of e-folds relative to the minimal case. We also compare our model parameters with recent observational data.

description: The present work establishes the mean-field limit of a N-particle system towards a regularized variant of the relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system, following the work of Braun-Hepp [Comm. in Math. Phys. 56 (1977), 101-113] and Dobrushin [Func. Anal. Appl. 13 (1979), 115-123] for the Vlasov-Poisson system. The main ingredients in the analysis of this system are (a) a kinetic formulation of the Maxwell equations in terms of a distribution of electromagnetic potential in the momentum variable, (b) a regularization procedure for which an analogue of the total energy - i.e. the kinetic energy of the particles plus the energy of the electromagnetic field - is conserved and (c) an analogue of Dobrushin's stability estimate for the Monge-Kantorovich-Rubinstein distance between two solutions of the regularized Vlasov-Poisson dynamics adapted to retarded potentials.

description: We investigate the quantum dynamics of a moderately driven two-level particle in free space or modified electromagnetic field reservoir. Particularly, we calculate the optical force acting on the radiator in such an environment. We found that the modified environmental reservoir influences significantly the optical force. Very intense driving in free space also modifies the maximal force.

description: We report Fermi/LAT observations and broad-band spectral modeling of the radio-loud active galaxy 4C +55.17 (z=0.896), formally classified as a flat-spectrum radio quasar. Using 19 months of all-sky survey Fermi/LAT data, we detect a gamma-ray continuum extending up to an observed energy of 145 GeV, and furthermore we find no evidence of gamma-ray variability in the source over its observed history. We illustrate the implications of these results in two different domains. First, we investigate the origin of the steady gamma-ray emission, where we re-examine the common classification of 4C +55.17 as a quasar-hosted blazar and consider instead its possible nature as a young radio source. We analyze and compare constraints on the source physical parameters in both blazar and young radio source scenarios by means of a detailed multiwavelength analysis and theoretical modeling of its broad-band spectrum. Secondly, we show that the gamma-ray spectrum may be formally extrapolated into the very-high energy (VHE; >= 100 GeV) range at a flux level detectable by the current generation of ground-based Cherenkov telescopes. This enables us to place constraints on models of extragalactic background light (EBL) within LAT energies and features the source as a promising candidate for VHE studies of the Universe at an unprecedented redshift of z=0.896.
Experimentelle Soziologie - Der Beitrag der Computersimulation zur Weiterentwicklung der soziologischen Theorie

description: Die folgende Abhandlung gibt einen Überblick über unterschiedliche Formen des Experiments in den Sozialwissenschaften, der von Laborexperimenten über Realexperimente bis hin zu Simulationsexperimenten reicht, um dann die Frage zu stellen, welche Funktion Experimente für den Erkenntnisfortschritt und die Theoriebildung in der Soziologie haben können. Zwar muss die Erwartung einer Validierung von Modellen bzw. einer Überprüfung von Theorien durch Experimente enttäuscht werden. Dennoch – so die These des vorliegenden Beitrags – stellt die Methode der Computersimulation eine Bereicherung des Methodenarsenals der Soziologie dar, da mit ihrer Hilfe soziologisch fundierte Modelle sozialer Systeme konstruiert werden können, die es ermöglichen, Strukturdynamiken sozialer Systeme experimentell zu untersuchen. Vor allem kann die Computersimulation dazu beitragen, die „Emergenz- Lücke“ soziologischer Mikro-Makro-Modelle schließen, die sich in einer systematischen Unterbelichtung der Prozesse der Aggregation von Einzelhandlungen zu einem systemischen Ganzen niederschlägt.

description: We analyze spectra of 18 stars belonging to the faintest subgiant branch in omega Centauri (the SGB-a), obtained with GIRAFFE@VLT at a resolution o R~17000 and a S/N ratio between 25 and 50. We measure abundances of Al, Ba, Ca, Fe, Ni, Si, and Ti and we find that these stars have =-0.73 +/- 0.14 dex, similarly to the corresponding red giant branch population (the RGB-a). We also measure =+0.40 +/- 0.16 dex, and =+0.87 +/- 0.23 dex, in general agreement with past studies. It is very interesting to note that we found a uniform Al abundance, =+0.32 +/- 0.14 dex, for all the 18 SGB-a stars analysed here, thus supporting past evidence that the usual (anti-)correlations are not present in this population, and suggesting a non globular cluster-like origin of this particular population. In the dwarf galaxy hypothesis for the formation of omega Cen, this population might be the best candidate for the field population of its putative parent galaxy, although some of its properties appear contradictory. It has also been suggested that the most metal-rich population in omega Cen is significantly enriched in helium. If this is true, the traditional abundance analysis techniques, based on model atmospheres with normal helium content, might lead to errors. We have computed helium enhanced atmospheres for three stars in our sample and verified that the abundance errors due to the use of non-enhanced atmospheres are negligible. Additional, indirect support to the enhanced helium content of the SGB-a population comes from our Li upper limits.
