description: Recent ALICE measurements of jet splittings in Pb--Pb and pp collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}}$ = 5.02 TeV are reported. These measurements scan the phase space of jet emissions in search of medium-induced signals which are expected to emerge at different scales. These include effects such as multiple soft-radiation, single hard emissions, and color coherence. The Lund plane diagram is shown, including projections onto distributions of the splitting scale $k_{\mathrm{T}}$ in intervals of the splitting angle $R_{\mathrm{g}}$. Soft Drop grooming is applied to access hard splittings within the jet, enabling measurements of groomed substructure variables. These include the shared momentum fraction $z_{\mathrm{g}}$ between the two hardest subjets and the number of Soft Drop splittings $n_{\mathrm{SD}}$. The results in Pb--Pb collisions are compared to PYTHIA events embedded into a Pb--Pb background to separate out background from in-medium effects. Measurements of $z_{\mathrm{g}}$ and the normalized splitting angle $θ_{\mathrm{g}}$ will also be shown in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 5.02 TeV for different grooming settings.

description: Committees have long endured as an integral and powerful institutional feature of Congress. Yet since 1970, major external changes may have affected committees and their policymaking. Potential influences include changes in the external environment, membership and panel orientation, and committee organization. Although scholars have linked some specific committee changes to external influences, further analysis of the external influences upon internal committee dynamics and decisions is warranted. To examine these influences, this dissertation provides a longitudinal and bicameral analysis of the House and Senate Agriculture Committees, their policymaking processes, and farm bill decisions from 1970 to 1990. Using an extensive variety of data and methodologies, both quantitative and qualitative, a framework for analysis is first employed to outline changes in the external factors. Second, the study highlights the influences of these changes upon internal committee dynamics by focusing upon strategic premises, committee norms, committee conflict and the use of political strategies. Third, the policy decisions of these panels are examined for their responsiveness to agricultural and nonagricultural interests. Fourth, a longitudinal and bicameral comparison of change in external factors, internal dynamics and decisions is completed for further analysis. The results show substantial and influential changes in the external environment, particularly from interest groups and budgetary pressures. Less influential change is found within committee orientation and organization. Committee dynamics are found to vary over time, correlating closely with the external changes. However, committee decisions reflected long-term stability--a primary responsiveness to agricultural interests, and a subsidiary responsiveness to nonagricultural interests. Lastly, significant bicameral similarities and differences are featured, suggesting the need for further bicameral scholarship. This dissertation extends and deepens the scholarly understanding of Congress, its committees, their policymaking processes and decisions. A focus upon agricultural policymaking in a bicameral and longitudinal perspective has provided the means to highlight the varying influences of external changes, to examine continuity and change in committee dynamics, and to establish the influences underlying policy decisions, a long-neglected aspect of committee research. Lastly, given the functionality of the framework for analysis employed here, a comprehensive theory of congressional committee policymaking may be formulated from its lead.

description: In 1990, Kolesova, Lam and Thiel determined the 283,657 main classes of Latin squares of order 8. Using techniques to determine relevant Latin trades and integer programming, we examine representatives of each of these main classes and determine that none can contain a uniquely completable set of size less than 16. In three of these main classes, the use of trades which contain less than or equal to three rows, columns, or elements does not suffice to determine this fact. We closely examine properties of representatives of these three main classes. Writing the main result in Nelder's notation for critical sets, we prove that scs(8)=16.

description: The popularity of fertilizers and plant protection treatments with chemical preparations is based, among other factors, on their ease of use and fast effects. This paper presents an analysis of the consumption of selected agrochemicals in EU-28 agriculture in type and spatial arrangement. The main aim of the article is to present changes in the examined scope, including the identification of Poland's rank in the consumption of selected agrochemicals against the background of European Union countries. According to the analysis, the consumption of mineral fertilizers and herbicides in Poland is one of the highest in Europe. Due to potential threats to human health and life and environmental risks, special attention should be paid to agricultural practices with regard to the use of agrochemicals.

description: We study two-body interactions of magnetic skyrmions on the plane and apply them to a (mostly) analytic description of a skyrmion lattice. This is done in the context of the solvable line, a particular choice of a potential for magnetic anisotropy and Zeeman terms, where analytic expressions for skyrmions are available. The energy of these analytic single skyrmion solutions is found to become negative below a critical point, where the ferromagnetic state is no longer the lowest energy state. This critical value is determined exactly without the ambiguities of numerical simulations. Along the solvable line the interaction energy for a pair of skyrmions is repulsive with power law fall off in contrast to the exponential decay of a purely Zeeman potential term. Using the interaction energy expressions we construct an inhomogeneous skyrmion lattice state, which is a candidate ground states for the model in particular parameter regions. Finally we estimate the transition between the skyrmion lattice and an inhomogeneous spiral state.

description: We report the first observation of the semi-muonic decay $D^+\to ωμ^+ν_μ$ using an $e^+e^-$ collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $2.93~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected with the BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV. The absolute branching fraction of the $D^+\to ωμ^+ν_μ$ decay is measured to be ${\mathcal B}_{D^+\to ωμ^+ν_μ}=(17.7\pm1.8_{\rm stat}\pm1.1_{\rm syst})\times 10^{-4}$. Its ratio with the world average value of the branching fraction of the $D^+\to ωe^+ν_e$ decay probes lepton flavor universality and it is determined to be ${\mathcal B}_{D^+\to ωμ^+ν_μ}/{\mathcal B}^{\rm PDG}_{D^+\to ωe^+ν_e}=1.05\pm0.14$, in agreement with the standard model expectation within one standard deviation.

Protection, promotion and sustainable development ABSTRACT: In the XIX century (mainly dating to the Sixties), laws were enacted for the secularization of all the religious assets. In order to protect, maintain and run this extremely rich, diversified and priceless estate, a Worship Buildings Fund (called Fondo Edifici di Culto = FEC) established by Law no. 222 (1985). Its holdings include many worship buildings (about 840 churches, abbeys, monasteries and convents), sacred objects, artworks, museums, archaelogical sites, book collections; as well as non-religious buildings (farms, schools, barracks and so on), and protected natural areas. Therefore FEC’s purposes need a renewed attention. A new governance will help to achieve the double goal, that is to administer faithfully the policies and objectives which best fulfill the needs, concerns and interests of this precious heritage and to support sustainable development.

description: Analog quantum simulation is expected to be a significant application of near-term quantum devices. Verification of these devices without comparison to known simulation results will be an important task as the system size grows beyond the regime that can be simulated classically. We introduce a set of experimentally-motivated verification protocols for analog quantum simulators, discussing their sensitivity to a variety of error sources and their scalability to larger system sizes. We demonstrate these protocols experimentally using a two-qubit trapped-ion analog quantum simulator and numerically using models of up to five qubits.

description: Social media has become an emerging alternative to opinion polls for public opinion collection, while it is still posing many challenges as a passive data source, such as structurelessness, quantifiability, and representativeness. Social media data with geotags provide new opportunities to unveil the geographic locations of users expressing their opinions. This paper aims to answer two questions: 1) whether quantifiable measurement of public opinion can be obtained from social media and 2) whether it can produce better or complementary measures compared to opinion polls. This research proposes a novel approach to measure the relative opinion of Twitter users towards public issues in order to accommodate more complex opinion structures and take advantage of the geography pertaining to the public issues. To ensure that this new measure is technically feasible, a modeling framework is developed including building a training dataset by adopting a state-of-the-art approach and devising a new deep learning method called Opinion-Oriented Word Embedding. With a case study of the tweets selected for the 2016 U.S. presidential election, we demonstrate the predictive superiority of our relative opinion approach and we show how it can aid visual analytics and support opinion predictions. Although the relative opinion measure is proved to be more robust compared to polling, our study also suggests that the former can advantageously complement the later in opinion prediction.

description: Message brokers see widespread adoption in modern IT landscapes, with Apache Kafka being one of the most employed platforms. These systems feature well-defined APIs for use and configuration and present flexible solutions for various data storage scenarios. Their ability to scale horizontally enables users to adapt to growing data volumes and changing environments. However, one of the main challenges concerning message brokers is the danger of them becoming a bottleneck within an IT architecture. To prevent this, knowledge about the amount of data a message broker using a specific configuration can handle needs to be available. In this paper, we propose a monitoring architecture for message brokers and similar Java Virtual Machine-based systems. We present a comprehensive performance analysis of the popular Apache Kafka platform using our approach. As part of the benchmark, we study selected data ingestion scenarios with respect to their maximum data ingestion rates. The results show that we can achieve an ingestion rate of about 420,000 messages/second on the used commodity hardware and with the developed data sender tool.

description: The consequence of multidimensional and multilevel idea of food security is the large number of definitions and measures. The aim of this article was an attempt to systematize food security measurement methods and to indicate their advantages and disadvantages based on the literature review. Food security measurement methods were divided into five groups. Although none of the presented methods does not address this problem in a comprehensive and error-free manner, it is clear from a review of the literature that experience-based food insecurity scales methods are very popular and appreciated among food security researchers, particularly at national and local level. / Synopsis. Konsekwencją wielowymiarowości i wielopoziomowości bezpieczeństwa żywnościowego jest duża liczba definicji i mierników tego zjawiska.

Metody pomiaru bezpieczeństwa żywnościowego podzielono na pięć grup. Chociaż żadna z zaprezentowanych metod nie ujmuje tego problemu w sposób kompleksowy i wolny od wad, to z przeglądu literatury wynika, że dużą popularnością wśród badaczy problemu bezpieczeństwa żywnościowego, szczególnie na poziomie krajowym i lokalnym, cieszą się metody oparte na ocenie skali doświadczania niepewności żywnościowej i postrzegania własnej sytuacji żywnościowej przez respondentów (experience-based food insecurity scales).

description: The shock model has successfully explained the observed behaviors of afterglows from long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Here we use it to investigate the so-called early afterglows from short GRBs, which arises from blast waves that are not decelerated considerably by their surrounding medium. We consider a nearby medium loaded with $e^{\pm}$ pairs (Beloborodov 2002). The temporal behaviors show first a soft-to-hard spectral evolution, from the optical to hard X-ray, and then a usual hard-to-soft evolution after the blast waves begin to decelerate. The light curves show variability, and consist of two peaks. The first peak, due to the pair effect, can be observed in the X-ray, though too faint and too short in the optical. The second peak will be easily detected by {\it Swift}. We show that detections of the double-peak structure in the light curves of early afterglows are very helpful to determine all the shock parameters of short GRBs, including both the parameters of the relativistic source and the surroundings. Besides, from the requirement that the forward-shock emission in short GRBs should be below the BATSE detection threshold, we give a strong constraint on the shock model parameters. In particular, the initial Lorentz factor of the source is limited to be no more than $\sim 10^3$, and the ambient medium density is inferred to be low, $n\la 10^{-1}$ cm$^{-3}$.

 Comments. A. jucundus was described from a single female collected by sweeping on vegetation (De Santis 1963). It is a Neotropical species, known only from Argentina, and shows similarities with the next described new species. This type specimen was compared with the literature description and key in De Santis (1963). Although this species appears in the literature indicated as described in 1964 (Loiácono et al. 2001, Noyes 2018), the date on the cover of the publication is clearly the year 1963 (De Santis 1963, CICBA 2015).

The analysis of changes was carried out for the six main regions of the world (Africa, Asia, North America, South America, Europe and Oceania) based on the data of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (EUROSTAT), which were aggregated to the average from 2001-2004, 2005-2007, 2008-2010 and 2011-2013. In the 21st century, the global production and consumption of oilseeds, vegetable oils and oil pellets is growing dynamically in the wake of the growing global demand for food and renewable energy, while the regional growth rate is diversified. The international turnover of these products is also growing, but the geographical directions of trade do not change significantly due to the lack of significant changes in self-sufficiency in the field of oilseeds and their processing products in derivatives regions of the world. / Synopsis.

A comparison of knowledge, attitude and behavior regarding alcohol use among female college students in Catholic single sex and coeducational settings
Creators: name: Smith, Karen Jacquelyn
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The purpose of this study was to determine what relationship exists between the type of institution (coed or women's college) a sample of undergraduate women attended and their knowledge, attitude and behavior regarding alcohol, as assessed by the Alcohol Knowledge and Use Inventory (AKUI). The three research hypotheses were: (1) there is no significant difference in the knowledge based on the type of institution, (2) there is a significant difference in attitude, (3) there is a significant difference in behavior. Full-time undergraduate women from five Catholic colleges and universities in urban environments participated in this study. A total of 109 responses provided data used to test these hypotheses. The knowledge score was not significantly different. Students in general know a reasonable amount about the effects of alcohol regardless of where they go to college. There was a significant relationship between the type of institution and attitudes regarding alcohol. Women's college students exhibit more conservative and responsible attitudes toward drinking and experience less negative consequences as a result of drinking than coed college women. Although generally responsible, 28.6% of the women's college students reported driving after drinking and 20.5% engaged in unplanned sex after drinking compared to 21.7% and 26.7% of the coed college women. A significant relationship was found between the type of institution and alcohol related behaviors. Coed college women drank more and more often than women at women's colleges. There were no significant differences between the groups regarding whether a woman drinks or not, at what age she started drinking and where she chooses to drink. The choice of beverage was significantly different with 63.8% of coed college women preferring beer and 51.5% of women college students preferring mixed drinks and straight shots. Alcohol awareness and educational programming seem to have the same impact regardless of where a woman attends college. This knowledge base, however, does not have the same influence on the student's attitudes and behaviors. The study findings showed a more conservative approach to alcohol among women college students and less drinking, less often and with fewer negative consequences than their coed college counterparts.

description: (abridged) An outburst of more than 80 individual bursts, similar to those seen from Soft Gamma Repeaters (SGRs), was detected from the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar (AXP) 1E 2259+586 in 2002 June. Coincident with this burst activity were gross changes in the pulsed flux, persistent flux, energy spectrum, pulse profile and spin down of the underlying X-ray source. We present RXTE and XMM-Newton observations of 1E 2259+586 that show the evolution of the aforementioned source parameters during and following this episode. Specifically, we observe an X-ray flux increase by more than an order of magnitude having two distinct components. The first component is linked to the burst activity and decays within ~2 days during which the energy spectrum is considerably harder than during the quiescent state of the source. The second component decays over the year following the glitch according to a power law in time with an exponent -0.22 +/- 0.01. The pulsed fraction decreased initially to ~15% RMS, and the pulse profile changed significantly during the outburst. A glitch was observed in 1E 2259+586 that preceded the observed burst activity. A fraction of the glitch (~19%) recovered, although the recovery was not purely exponential. An exponential rise of ~20% of the frequency jump with a time scale of ~14 days results in a significantly better fit to the data, however, contamination from a systematic drift in the phase of the pulse profile cannot be excluded. The long-term post-glitch spin-down rate decreased in magnitude relative to the pre-glitch value. A comparison with SGR outburst properties, a physical interpretation of the results, and implications on the number of magnetar candidates in our Galaxy are discussed.

description: The purpose of this study was to determine what relationship exists between the type of institution (coed or women's college) a sample of undergraduate women attended and their knowledge, attitude and behavior regarding alcohol, as assessed by the Alcohol Knowledge and Use Inventory (AKUI). The three research hypotheses were: (1) there is no significant difference in the knowledge based on the type of institution, (2) there is a significant difference in attitude, (3) there is a significant difference in behavior. Full-time undergraduate women from five Catholic colleges and universities in urban environments participated in this study. A total of 109 responses provided data used to test these hypotheses. The knowledge score was not significantly different. Students in general know a reasonable amount about the effects of alcohol regardless of where they go to college. There was a significant relationship between the type of institution and attitudes regarding alcohol. Women's college students exhibit more conservative and responsible attitudes toward drinking and experience less negative consequences as a result of drinking than coed college women. Although generally responsible, 28.6% of the women's college students reported driving after drinking and 20.5% engaged in unplanned sex after drinking compared to 21.7% and 26.7% of the coed college women. A significant relationship was found between the type of institution and alcohol related behaviors. Coed college women drank more and more often than women at women's colleges. There were no significant differences between the groups regarding whether a woman drinks or not, at what age she started drinking and where she chooses to drink. The choice of beverage was significantly different with 63.8% of coed college women preferring beer and 51.5% of women college students preferring mixed drinks and straight shots. Alcohol awareness and educational programming seem to have the same impact regardless of where a woman attends college. This knowledge base, however, does not have the same influence on the student's attitudes and behaviors. The study findings showed a more conservative approach to alcohol among women college students and less drinking, less often and with fewer negative consequences than their coed college counterparts.

description: We study the magnetic braking and viscous damping of differential rotation in incompressible, uniform density stars in general relativity. Differentially rotating stars can support significantly more mass in equilibrium than nonrotating or uniformly rotating stars. The remnant of a binary neutron star merger or supernova core collapse may produce such a "hypermassive" neutron star. Although a hypermassive neutron star may be stable on a dynamical timescale, magnetic braking and viscous damping of differential rotation will ultimately alter the equilibrium structure, possibly leading to delayed catastrophic collapse. Here we consider the slow-rotation, weak-magnetic field limit in which E_rot << E_mag << W, where E_rot is the rotational kinetic energy, E_mag is the magnetic energy, and W is the gravitational binding energy of the star. We assume the system to be axisymmetric and solve the MHD equations in both Newtonian gravitation and general relativity. Toroidal magnetic fields are generated whenever the angular velocity varies along the initial poloidal field lines. We find that the toroidal fields and angular velocities oscillate independently along each poloidal field line, which enables us to transform the original 2+1 equations into 1+1 form and solve them along each field line independently. The incoherent oscillations on different field lines stir up turbulent-like motion in tens of Alfven timescales ("phase mixing"). In the presence of viscosity, the stars eventually are driven to uniform rotation, with the energy contained in the initial differential rotation going into heat. Our evolution calculations serve as qualitative guides and benchmarks for future, more realistic MHD simulations in full 3+1 general relativity.

description: An exclusive measurement of the Coulomb breakup of 8B into 7Be+p at 254 A MeV allowed to study the angular correlations of the breakup particles. These correlations demonstrate clearly that E1 multipolarity dominates and that E2 multipolarity can be neglected. By using a simple single-particle model for 8B and treating the breakup in first-order perturbation theory, we extract a zero-energy S factor of S-(17)(0) = 18.6 +- 1.2 +- 1.0 eV b.

description: Pressureless liquid-phase sintered SiC (LPS-SiC) ceramics fabricated from β-SiC and 1 vol% α-SiC seeds with 3–15 vol% Al2O3-Y2O3-CaO additives were prepared to investigate the effects of additive content on the mechanical and thermal properties. All the specimens consisted primarily of elongated α-SiC grains that were predominantly formed via β to α phase transformation and via the growth of the initially added α-SiC seeds during the sintering. The grain growth and polytypic transformation exhibited diffusion-controlled kinetics. The highest value for fracture toughness (5.4 MPa·m1/2) was exhibited at an additive content level of 7 vol%; this was attributable to the optimal interfacial strength and well-interlocked elongated grains with active crack–microstructure interaction. The specimen with 7 vol% additive content exhibited the highest flexural strength (686 MPa) among the reported pressureless LPS-SiC ceramics, and this was attributable to its high density and the optimal content of soft intergranular phase (IGP). The hardness and thermal conductivity decreased gradually with the increase in additive content, owing to the increased volume fraction of the soft IGP with low thermal conductivity.

description: Debate about the therapeutic value of fees in psychotherapy has been present since the publication of early psychoanalytic writings. Two theories, based on psychoanalytic and cognitive dissonance concepts, have both predicted that the payment of some fee contributes to effective psychotherapy. The present study examined psychotherapy effort and outcome data collected from client families receiving psychotherapy services at various family therapy clinics, under the auspices of the Maryland Association of Youth Service Bureaus. Some of these clinics charged a flat fee for psychotherapy, some used a sliding scale fee structure, and others provided free services. Data from sites that now charge fees were examined across a period before and after fee structures were implemented, allowing for a pre-post comparison within sites. Results indicate that fee structure did not interact with the time of data collection (pre-fees or post-fees) to affect either psychotherapy effort or outcome variables. Discussion focuses on questioning the assumption that charging fees improves psychotherapy.

description: High catalytic activities of enzymes are necessary for the enzyme immobilizing technology for the development of better biocatalysts and biosensors. Basic polypeptide (poly-L-lysine)-templated precipitation of silica synthesized by sol-gel chemistry produced a composite material that allows high enzyme activity. This study investigates the structural properties of the composite material that allow retaining the glucose oxidase (GOx) activity. Scanning (SEM) and transmission (TEM) electron microscopies reveal that the composite has plate- or sheet-type morphologies composed of hexagonal structures that are 0.2–2 µm in diameter. After the encapsulation in a sol-gel silica matrix, encapsulated GOx retained high activity (over 85% of oxidation activity compared with that of free GOx). The relative activity of GOx-encapsulated in SiO2@pLys remained approximately at 50–60% after eight cycles; in addition, the catalytic stability of encapsulated GOx improved under high temperature (60°C) and in several solvents (e.g., HCl, urea, and acetone). Moreover, D-glucose detection was performed in the linear range of 1–400 µM using SiO2@pLys-GOx composites. The obtained results show that SiO2@pLys-GOx composites can be used for enzyme encapsulation with high activity and stability and as biosensor materials with high sensitivity.
