description: This research was intended to explore the factors that declared the negative factors influencing the intrinsic and extrinsic motivations and to create equations for predicting negative motivation towards the creation of Chinese Language learning of Chinese program students of Phitsanulok Pittayakom School. The participants were 61 senior high students chosen using simple random sampling technique. There were 68.8 percent male and 31.2 percent female comprising 95 percent of students in the Chinese Program. Research tools used were a valid 38-item questionnaire, presenting a satisfied content validity and reliability between .64-.89. Robust regression was applied to generate prediction models. The research results showed that the negative factors affecting intrinsic motivation towards the creation of Chinese Language learning included teacher's personalities and grading. Equation predictions in raw score form was Ŷ = 4.86 -.76 (teacher's personalities), and -.39 (grading). Extrinsic motivation included textbooks selection and teacher's personalities at Ŷ = 5.02 -.20 (textbook selection) and -.16 (teacher's personalities). Equation predictions in standard score form was zˆ = -.50 (teacher's personalities); -.39 (grading); zˆ = -.69 (textbook selection) and -.37 (teacher's personalities), respectively. The stated results can reflect instructional management of teachers who teach Chinese Language and deploy on inattentive students’ problem on Chinese Language learning afterward.

description: The recent discovery that for large Hilbert spaces, almost all (that is, typical) Hamiltonians have eigenstates that place small subsystems in thermal equilibrium, has shed much light on the origins of irreversibility and thermalization. Here we give numerical evidence that many-body lattice systems generically approach typicality as the number of subsystems is increased, and thus provide further support for the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis. Our results indicate that the deviation of many-body systems from typicality decreases exponentially with the number of systems. Further, by averaging over a number of randomly-selected nearest-neighbor interactions, we obtain a power-law for the atypicality as a function of the Hilbert space dimension, distinct from the power-law possessed by random Hamiltonians.

description: The ultimate navigation efficiency of mobile robots in human environments will depend on how we will appraise them: merely as impersonal machines or as human-like agents. In the latter case, an agent may take advantage of the cooperative collision avoidance, given that it possesses recursive cognition, i.e.,the agent's decisions depend on the decisions made by humans that in turn depend on the agent's decisions. To deal with this high-level cognitive skill, we propose a neural network architecture implementing Prediction-for-CompAction paradigm. The network predicts possible human-agent collisions and compacts the time dimension by projecting a given dynamic situation into a static map. Thereby emerging compact cognitive map can be readily used as a "dynamic GPS" for planning actions or mental evaluation of the convenience of cooperation in a given context. We provide numerical evidence that cooperation yields additional room for more efficient navigation in cluttered pedestrian flows, and the agent can choose path to the target significantly shorter than a robot treated by humans as a functional machine. Moreover, the navigation safety, i.e., the chances to avoid accidental collisions, increases under cooperation. Remarkably, these benefits yield no additional load to the mean society effort. Thus, the proposed strategy is socially compliant, and the humanoid agent can behave as "one of us".

description: Many physical, biological or chemical systems are modeled by ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and finding their solution is an every-day-task for many scientists. Here, we introduce a new C++ library dedicated to find numerical solutions of initial value problems of ODEs: odeint (www.odeint.com). odeint is implemented in a highly generic way and provides extensive interoperability at top performance. For example, due to it's modular design it can be easily parallized with OpenMP and even runs on CUDA GPUs. Despite that, it provides a convenient interface that allows for a simple and easy usage.

description: Gruppenarbeit – ein vielversprechend schillernder Begriff zieht weiter seine Runden: in Produktionshallen und Expertenkreisen, bei Managern, Forschern und zunehmend selbstbewußten Mitarbeitern in großen und kleineren Betrieben. Was bedeutet Gruppenarbeit? Was läßt sich damit bewirken, fördern oder verhindern? fragten sich 1991 knapp zwei Dutzend Praktiker und Wissenschaftler bei einem Workshop in Bremen. Was ist Gruppenarbeit heute? Wieviel ist geblieben von den Idealen? Wie kann es weitergehen? wollten sieben Jahre später nahezu dieselben Leute wissen. Damals wie diesmal gab es für die zweitägige Konferenz eine solide Basis in Form sehr ausführlicher Einzel-Vorgespräche samt Auswertung, die allen Teilnehmenden vorab zur Verfügung stand. Der besondere Charakter und die methodische Qualität dieser das Gesamtthema strukturierenden Vorbereitung beruhten in beiden Fällen auf der langfristigen Zusammenarbeit eines kleinen Teams von Universitäts- und Unternehmensangehörigen - und der geschickten Einbeziehung sowohl von verantwortlichen Praktikern (Personal, Entlohnung, Bildung, Organisation usw.) aus konkurrierenden Betrieben der Automobilindustrie, als auch von Wissenschaftlern, die sich in außeruniversitärem Kontext (z.B. halbstaatliche Forschungs- und Beratungsstellen, Gewerkschaften, Unternehmensberatung) als Arbeitspsychologen, Industriesoziologen, Politologen, Erwachsenenpädagogen etc. seit Jahren mit Gruppenarbeit befassen. So ergab sich aus Kontinuität der Kooperation und Intensität der Vorbereitung sozusagen eine „doppelte Dichte“ der Follow-up-Veranstaltung nach sieben Jahren.

description: Music educators currently face five major problem areas in the determination of appropriate administrative, pedagogical and research policies and approaches, namely, problems respecting the nature of the musical symbol itself ; socio-cultural issues; problems respecting the pedagogical process and its nature; problems in music education research; and the lack of a theoretical base in musical pedagogy. The writer, therefore, develops three logically distinguishable areas of focus in the analysis, i . e., structural or musical, sociocultural, and pedagogical. Each of these areas is composed of several assumptive sets. In each case a review of the extant relevant research and/or theoretical formulations precedes an attempt to evaluate these, and where feasible, to offer alternate assumptions, which hopefully will prove more desirable. Resultant from the analysis are twenty propositions which in turn address the five problem areas in music education which have been identified by the writer. The study constitutes an attempt to re-evaluate "the present state of the art" of music education. In so doing, it represents a first step in the development of a theoretical formulation which is not only consistent with the evidence from extant research but tends to be internally and logically consistent. Further it is illustrative of attempts to explicate the crucial role of assumptions, for in the explication of assumptions, the roots of action, the logical premises of behaviour are examined and evaluated.
Observables and dynamics in quantum gravity
Creators: name: Haghnegahdar, Poya
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The treatment of quantum constraint theories in physics is considered. These systems exist in many different branches of physics. One noticeable case is the quantum theory of gravity (which is a completely constraint system). We contrast two modern methods of solving such quantum constraint systems, namely the method used in the String Theory - BRST Quantization, and that used in Loop Quantum Gravity - the Loop Quantization. We investigate these methods and the quantum solution space they produce - along with proper observables - for the case of a discrete closed string. This system has the advantage that it lends itself to the investigation of these two methods of quantization easily - thereby highlighting some of their principle features - yet it is simple enough so to side-step the many complications that arise in more general systems.

description: Delta Scuti (delta Sct) stars are opacity-driven pulsators with masses of 1.5-2.5M$_{\odot}$, their pulsations resulting from the varying ionization of helium. In less massive stars such as the Sun, convection transports mass and energy through the outer 30 per cent of the star and excites a rich spectrum of resonant acoustic modes. Based on the solar example, with no firm theoretical basis, models predict that the convective envelope in delta Sct stars extends only about 1 per cent of the radius, but with sufficient energy to excite solar-like oscillations. This was not observed before the Kepler mission, so the presence of a convective envelope in the models has been questioned. Here we report the detection of solar-like oscillations in the delta Sct star HD 187547, implying that surface convection operates efficiently in stars about twice as massive as the Sun, as the ad hoc models predicted.

Es zeigte sich, dass Push- und Pull-Maßnahmen nur in Kombination effektiv wirken können und eine Ausrichtung an die jeweilige Zielgruppe notwendig ist. Mithilfe einer durchgeführten Haushaltsbefragung in zwei Hamburger Stadtteilen und der daraus folgenden deskriptiven und explanativen Datenauswertung, wurde die Verkehrsmittelverlagerung bei Umsetzung von Maßnahmen für mehr Pkw-Freiheit (Mobilitätsbausteinen) untersucht. Für die Haushaltsbefragung wurden Zukunftsszenarien formuliert, die die Umsetzung von Push- und Pull-Maßnahmen beinhalten. Daraus konnten Personengruppen nach ihrem zukünftigen Mobilitätsverhalten abgeleitet werden.
description: In a first step, the psychological background of people’s mobility behavior was classified based on guided interviews with experts. According to this study the implementation of effective push and pull measures is considered to be more effective when adjusting them to target groups and combining both, restrictions and incentives. Additionally, a household survey was carried out in two districts in Hamburg. The survey data was analysed using descriptive and explanatory statistics to examine the future modal shift after implementing measures for more car-free living. With this aim in mind, scenarios for future mobility were formulated in the household survey, including the implementation of push and pull measures. Based on these scenarios, survey participants were asked to indicate which modes of transport they would choose in the future and whether they would consider not owning a car. The final part of the paper identifies groups of people based on their future mobility behavior.

Bose Gases Near Resonance: renormalized interactions in a condensate

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Quantum Gases (cond-mat.quant-gas)

description: We study the interplay between few- and many-body physics in Bose gases near resonance. The effect of condensates on the two-body running coupling constant is investigated via imposing a boundary condition on a self-consistent renormalization flow equation. Bose gases are found to become nearly fermionized when the chemical potential as a function of scattering lengths reaches a maximum and the atomic condensates lose meta-stability. The maximum and accompanied insta- bility are illustrated as a precursor of the sign change of g_2, the renormalized two-body interaction between condensed atoms from effectively repulsive to effectively attractive when approaching res- onance even though the scattering length is still positive. This occurs when dimers, under the influence of condensates, emerge at zero energy in the atomic gases at a finite positive scattering length.

Higher order combination modes involving 3 phonons and 4 phonons are observed in single-layer (SLG), bi-layer (BLG), and few layer (FLG) graphene samples prepared by mechanical exfoliation. The intensity of the higher order phonon modes (relative to the G peak) is highest in SLG and decreases with increasing layers. In addition, all higher order modes are observed to upshift in frequency almost linearly with increasing graphene layers, betraying the underlying interlayer van der Waals interactions.

description: Touchscreen-based electronic devices such as smart phones and smart tablets are widely used in our daily life. While the security of electronic devices have been heavily investigated recently, the resilience of touchscreens against various attacks has yet to be thoroughly investigated. In this paper, for the first time, we show that touchscreen-based electronic devices are vulnerable to intentional electromagnetic interference (IEMI) attacks in a systematic way and how to conduct this attack in a practical way. Our contribution lies in not just demonstrating the attack, but also analyzing and quantifying the underlying mechanism allowing the novel IEMI attack on touchscreens in detail. We show how to calculate both the minimum amount of electric field and signal frequency required to induce touchscreen ghost touches. We further analyze our IEMI attack on real touchscreens with different magnitudes, frequencies, duration, and multitouch patterns. The mechanism of controlling the touchscreen-enabled electronic devices with IEMI signals is also elaborated. We design and evaluate an out-of-sight touchscreen locator and touch injection feedback mechanism to assist a practical IEMI attack. Our attack works directly on the touchscreen circuit regardless of the touchscreen scanning mechanism or operating system. Our attack can inject short-tap, long-press, and omni-directional gestures on touchscreens from a distance larger than the average thickness of common tabletops. Compared with the state-of-the-art touchscreen attack, ours can accurately inject different types of touch events without the need for sensing signal synchronization, which makes our attack more robust and practical. In addition, rather than showing a simple proof-of-concept attack, we present and demonstrate the first ready-to-use IEMI based touchscreen attack vector with end-to-end attack scenarios.

Semaphorin 5B : an inhibitory transmembrane guidance cue reveals its secretable function
Creators: name: Lett, Robyn Lynn Mwuese
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Corticofugal axons projecting to the thalamus, brainstem and spinal cord must travel the same initial trajectory through the subcortical lateral and medial ganglionic eminences, and are therefore likely subject to the same sets of guidance cues. These cues direct the course of corticofugal axons bringing them to each intermediate target, until they reach the diencephalic-telencephalic boundary, where axons targeting the thalamus turn dorsally and brainstem and spinal cord targeting axons turn ventrally. Many of these guidance cues have been elucidated, yet there are still gaps in our understanding of the formation of the corticofugal projection. I found that Sema5B expression flanked the presumptive internal capsule during its formation, and was therefore ideally situated both spatially and temporally to act as an instructive cue for descending cortical axons. In Chapter 2, I show that Sema5B is not only capable of inhibiting cortical axons in vitro, but can cause misguidance of cortical axons in slice culture when placed ectopically over normally non-Sema5B expressing regions. In addition, I show that the loss of Sema5B from the neocortical VZ resulted in aberrant penetration of this normally avoided region. Therefore Sema5B is both necessary and sufficient to inhibit the corticofugal projection. Semaphorins and their plexin receptors are frequently proteolyzed to modulate the elicited responses in navigating growth cones. In Chapter 3 I show that Sema5B cleavage results in an inhibitory fragment that in heterologous cells can produce inhibitory gradients for cortical explants in collagen gel co-cultures, and collapse dissociated cortical neuronal growth cones, an effect that can be blocked with a function disrupting antibody to the cell adhesion molecule TAG-1. This thesis shows that Sema5B, a guidance cue with a hitherto unknown function, is responsible for a very important aspect of cortical development. My work leads to a final proposal that Sema5B is in fact a two-in-one protein with separable inhibitory and alternate complex functions, the implications of which are discussed thoroughly in Chapter 4.

description: We study the nucleon matrix elements of the quark scalar-density operator using maximally twisted mass fermions with dynamical light ($u$,$d$), strange and charm degrees of freedom. We demonstrate that in this setup the nucleon matrix elements of the light and strange quark densities can be obtained with good statistical accuracy, while for the charm quark counterpart only a bound can be provided. The present calculation which is performed at only one value of the lattice spacing and pion mass serves as a benchmark for a future more systematic computation of the scalar quark content of the nucleon.
Anomalous beam diffusion near beam-beam synchro-betatron resonances

Subjects: subject: Accelerator Physics (physics.acc-ph)

description: The diffusion process near low order synchro-betatron resonances driven by beam-beam interactions at a crossing angle is investigated. Macroscopic observables such as beam emittance, lifetime and beam profiles are calculated. These are followed with detailed studies of microscopic quantities such as the evolution of the variance at several initial transverse amplitudes and single particle probability distribution functions. We present evidence to show that the observed diffusion is anomalous and the dynamics follows a non-Markovian continuous time random walk process. We derive a modified master equation to replace the Chapman-Kolmogorov equation in action-angle space and a fractional diffusion equation to describe the density evolution for this class of processes.

description: We report the discovery of an interesting and rare, rectangular-shaped galaxy. At a distance of 21 Mpc, the dwarf galaxy LEDA 074886 has an absolute R-band magnitude of -17.3 mag. Adding to this galaxy's intrigue is the presence of an embedded, edge-on stellar disk (of extent 2R_{e,disk} = 12 arcsec = 1.2 kpc) for which Forbes et al. reported V_rot/sigma ~ 1.4. We speculate that this galaxy may be the remnant of two (nearly edge-one) merged disk galaxies in which the initial gas was driven inward and subsequently formed the inner disk, while the stars at larger radii effectively experienced a dissipationless merger event resulting in this `emerald cut galaxy' having very boxy isophotes with a_4/a = -0.05 to -0.08 from 3 to 5 kpc. This galaxy suggests that knowledge from simulations of both `wet' and `dry' galaxy mergers may need to be combined to properly understand the various paths that galaxy evolution can take, with a particular relevance to blue elliptical galaxies.

The source is well-known for its spectral complexity, comprising a strong soft-excess and different absorption systems. Soft energy band (0.3-0.7 keV) lags are detected over all the four observations, in the frequency range $ν\lsim 6 \times 10^{-4}$ Hz, where hard lags, similar to those observed in black hole X-ray binaries, are usually detected in smaller mass AGN. The lag magnitude is energy-dependent, showing two distinct trends apparently connectable to the two flux levels at which the source is observed. The results are discussed in the context of disk- and/or corona-reprocessing scenarios, and of disk wind models. Similarities with the high-frequency negative lag of 1H 0707-495 are highlighted, and, if confirmed, they would support the hypothesis that the lag in PG 1211+143 represents the signature of the same underlying mechanism, whose temporal characteristics scale with the mass of the central object.

Technology Market Intermediaries

description: Technology Market Intermediaries (TMI) are currently emerging on the markets for technologies attempting to realize business opportunities and facilitate the technology and IP transactions supporting firms and other markets actors (e.g. universities). They aim to support open innovation, respectively facilitate more economically technology and particularly IP transactions. However, our understanding of TMIs and their roles needs to be considered incomplete. In this paper I provide evidence on the growing number of TMIs and derived a conceptual basis for a further understanding of TMIs. The inherent difficulties of intellectual property monetization present a challenge for technology based enterprises and business opportunities for IP firms. Following a literature review, I develop a typology for TMIs. Having carried out a review of the literature I compiled a mix of primary and secondary data on about 70 TMIs. Applying the ‘nine business model building blocks’ from Osterwalder (2004) I identify 12 different TMI types which I then consolidate into six TMI archetypes using the framework for ‘business models archetypes’ of Herman and Malone (2003).

description: We study the dual complexes of boundary divisors in log resolutions of compactifications of algebraic varieties and show that the homotopy types of these complexes are independent of all choices. Inspired by recent developments in nonarchimedean geometry, we consider relations between these boundary complexes and weight filtrations on singular cohomology and cohomology with compact supports, and give applications to dual complexes of resolutions of isolated singularities that generalize results of Stepanov and Thuillier.

description: We generalize the concept of convective (or velocity-dependent) Lyapunov exponent $Λ(v)$ to an entire spectrum $Λ(v,n)$. Our results are supported by the consistency between the outcome of the chronotopic approach [{\it S. Lepri et al. J. Stat. Phys., 82 5/6 (1996) 1429}] and a more direct method. There exists a critical integrated density $n=n_c$, beyond which the convective exponent exhibits a discontinuous dependence on the velocity, which originates from the appearance of multiple branches. This phenomenon can be traced back to a change of concavity of the so-called {\it temporal} Lyapunov spectrum for $n>n_c$, which is therefore a dynamical invariant.

description: Clinical research into consciousness has long focused on cortical macroscopic networks and their disruption in pathological or pharmacological consciousness perturbation. Despite demonstrating diagnostic utility in disorders of consciousness (DoC) and monitoring anesthetic depth, these cortico-centric approaches have been unable to characterize which neurochemical systems may underpin consciousness alterations. Instead, preclinical experiments have long implicated the dopaminergic ventral tegmental area (VTA) in the brainstem. Despite dopaminergic agonist efficacy in DoC patients equally pointing to dopamine, the VTA has not been studied in human perturbed consciousness. To bridge this translational gap between preclinical subcortical and clinical cortico-centric perspectives, we assessed functional connectivity changes of a histologically characterized VTA using functional MRI recordings of pharmacologically (propofol sedation) and pathologically perturbed consciousness (DoC patients). Both cohorts demonstrated VTA disconnection from the precuneus and posterior cingulate (PCu/PCC), a main default mode network node widely implicated in consciousness. Strikingly, the stronger VTA-PCu/PCC connectivity was, the more the PCu/PCC functional connectome resembled its awake configuration, suggesting a possible neuromodulatory relationship. VTA-PCu/PCC connectivity increased toward healthy control levels only in DoC patients who behaviorally improved at follow-up assessment. To test whether VTA-PCu/PCC connectivity can be affected by a dopaminergic agonist, we demonstrated in a separate set of traumatic brain injury patients without DoC that methylphenidate significantly increased this connectivity. Together, our results characterize an in vivo dopaminergic connectivity deficit common to reversible and chronic consciousness perturbation. This noninvasive assessment of the dopaminergic system bridges preclinical and clinical work, associating dopaminergic VTA function with macroscopic network alterations, thereby elucidating a critical aspect of brainstem-cortical interplay for consciousness.

description: Context: The study of variations in total solar irradiance (TSI) is important for understanding how the Sun affects the Earth's climate. Aims: Full-disk continuum images and magnetograms are now available for three full solar cycles. We investigate how modelled TSI compares with direct observations by building a consistent modelled TSI dataset. The model, based only on changes in the photospheric magnetic flux can then be tested on rotational, cyclical and secular timescales. Methods: We use Kitt Peak and SoHO/MDI continuum images and magnetograms in the SATIRE-S model to reconstruct TSI over cycles 21-23. To maximise independence from TSI composites, SORCE/TIM TSI data are used to fix the one free parameter of the model. We compare and combine the separate data sources for the model to estimate an uncertainty on the reconstruction and prevent any additional free parameters entering the model. Results: The reconstruction supports the PMOD composite as being the best historical record of TSI observations, although on timescales of the solar rotation the IRMB composite provides somewhat better agreement. Further to this, the model is able to account for 92% of TSI variations from 1978 to 2009 in the PMOD composite and over 96% during cycle 23. The reconstruction also displays an inter-cycle, secular decline of 0.20 (+0.12 / -0.09) Wm-2 between cycle 23 minima, in agreement with the PMOD composite. Conclusions: SATIRE-S is able to recreate TSI observations on all timescales of a day and longer over 31 years from 1978. This is strong evidence that changes in photospheric magnetic flux alone are responsible for almost all solar irradiance variations over the last three solar cycles.

description: Atmospheric modelling of the components of the visually close binary systems Hip70973 and Hip72479 was used to estimate the individual physical parameters of their components. The model atmospheres were constructed using a grid of Kurucz solar metalicity blanketed models, and used to compute a synthetic spectral energy distribution for each component separately, and hence for the combined system. The total observational spectral energy distributions of the systems were used as a reference for the comparison with the synthetic ones. We used the feedback modified parameters and iteration method to get the best fit between synthetic and observational spectral energy distributions. The physical parameters of the components of the system Hip70973 were derived as: Ta eff = 5700{\pm}75 K, Tb eff = 5400{\pm}75 K, log ga = 4.50{\pm}0.05, log gb = 4.50{\pm}0.05, Ra = 0.98{\pm}0.07R{\odot}, Rb = 0.89{\pm}0.07R{\odot}, and pi = 26.25 {\pm} 1.95 mas, with G4 & G9 spectral types. And those of the system Hip72479 as: Ta eff = 5400 {\pm} 50 K, Tb eff = 5180 {\pm} 50 K, log ga = 4.50 {\pm} 0.05, log gb = 4.60 {\pm} 0.05, Ra = 0.89 {\pm} 0.07R{\odot}, Rb = 0.80 {\pm} 0.07R{\odot}, and pi = 23.59 {\pm} 1.00 mas with G9 & K1 spectral types.

Discrete space-time geometry and skeleton conception of particle dynamics

description: It is shown that properties of a discrete space-time geometry distinguish from properties of the Riemannian space-time geometry. The discrete geometry is a physical geometry, which is described completely by the world function. The discrete geometry is nonaxiomatizable and multivariant. The equivalence relation is intransitive in the discrete geometry. The particles are described by world chains (broken lines with finite length of links), because in the discrete space-time geometry there are no infinitesimal lengths. Motion of particles is stochastic, and statistical description of them leads to the Schrödinger equation, if the elementary length of the discrete geometry depends on the quantum constant in a proper way.
