description: Meson spectroscopy is going through a revival with the advent of high statistics experiments and new advances in the theoretical predictions. The Constituent Quark Model (CQM) is finally being expanded considering more basic principles of field theory and using discrete calculations of Quantum Chromodynamics (lattice QCD). These new calculations are approaching predictive power for the spectrum of hadronic resonances and decay modes. It will be the task of the new experiments to extract the meson spectrum from the data and compare with those predictions. The goal of this report is to describe one particular technique for extracting resonance information from multiparticle final states. The technique described here, partial wave analysis based on the helicity formalism, has been used at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) using pion beams, and Jefferson Laboratory (JLab) using photon beams. In particular this report broadens this technique to include production experiments using linearly polarized real photons or quasi-real photons. This article is of a didactical nature. We describe the process of analysis, detailing assumptions and formalisms, and is directed towards people interested in starting partial wave analysis.

description: We use the formalism of Gould and Raffelt to compute the dimensionless thermal conduction coefficients for scattering of dark matter particles with standard model nucleons via cross-sections that depend on the relative velocity or momentum exchanged between particles. Motivated by models invoked to reconcile various recent results in direct detection, we explicitly compute the conduction coefficients $α$ and $κ$ for cross-sections that go as $v_{\rm rel}^2$, $v_{\rm rel}^4$, $v_{\rm rel}^{-2}$, $q^2$, $q^4$ and $q^{-2}$, where $v_{\rm rel}$ is the relative DM-nucleus velocity and $q$ is the momentum transferred in the collision. We find that a $v_{\rm rel}^{-2}$ dependence can significantly enhance energy transport from the inner solar core to the outer core. The same can true for any $q$-dependent coupling, if the dark matter mass lies within some specific range for each coupling. This effect can complement direct searches for dark matter; combining these results with state-of-the-art Solar simulations should greatly increase sensitivity to certain DM models. It also seems possible that the so-called Solar Abundance Problem could be resolved by enhanced energy transport in the solar core due to such velocity- or momentum-dependent scatterings.

title: Computer tools to assist the diagnosis of dyspraxia
Creators: name: Boyle, Timothy
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2023

description: Dyspraxia is a condition which relates to an impairment in the development of motor coordination, and which has been estimated to affect around 6% of children. It is a highly debilitating condition, seriously undermining both academic and social development. It is, however, a condition which can be difficult to diagnose, and one which can be reflected in different aspects of behaviour. This thesis discusses an approach to the assessment of Dyspraxia in which computer tools can be used to support the detailed monitoring and analysis of a child’s behaviour during standardised testing procedures. Current methods of diagnosis require specially trained clinical staff and can be very time consuming. We have taken one of the standard assessment tests, the Beery Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration (the VMI Test), and investigated improvements which can be achieved using computer software. The proposed improvements relate both to supporting more objective and automated support for test analysis, but also to the provision of options to extract characteristics of behaviour which are traditionally difficult to extract using conventional procedures. We have developed software to provide support to a clinician scoring the VMI. We have produced a generalised assessment system for any figure copying task. This has been adapted to score the VMI test. Novel approaches to diagnosing Dyspraxia have also been discussed. On-line data capture provides an assortment of measures which are unavailable to a scoring system based solely on a static image. Overall, the work reported describes and evaluates a package of tools which can be used to support diagnostic procedures in routine clinical practice.

description: Most couples spend their nights together in one bed. Although several studies investigated the effect of co-sleeping on the sleep of the individuals, research into the sleep behavior of couples is scarce. One study, for example, looked at the hypothesis that relationship quality is related to the intimacy of the couple’s position at sleep onset, however, did not find a significant relationship due to small samples size. The present study was carried out to address this topic. Overall, 128 participants living in a stable relationship completed the online survey. Whereas the association between the intimacy of the sleep-onset position and relationship quality was only marginally significant (small effect size), couples living together and sleeping in larger beds are more likely to choose less intimate sleeping positions. This change in behavior, sleeping with greater distance to the partner, might be mediated by living together and bed size. In summary, the findings of this study indicate that studying sleep behavior and sleep arrangement of couples might be fruitful for basic sleep research and for the field of sleep medicine.

Dream recall frequency and nightmare frequency in patients with restless legs syndrome (RLS) or periodic limb movements disorder (PLMD)
Creators: name: Schredl, Michael
Publisher: name: International Journal of Dream Research
Year: 2022

description: Dreaming in patients with sleep disorders, e.g., narcolepsy, insomnia, differs from dreaming in healthy controls. Dream research in patients with RLS/PLMD, however, is very scarce. Overall, 447 patients (263 women, 184 men) with RLS/PLMD and 208 healthy controls completed dream, sleep, and stress questionnaires during diagnostic procedures. The patient group did not show any differences regarding dream recall frequency but reported nightmares more often than healthy controls. This difference was no longer significant after controlling for daytime distress. This study indicates that patients with RLS or PLMD experience more nightmare than healthy persons – most likely due to the daytime burden associated with having this types of sleep disorders. Future research should study whether altered sleep physiology, e.g., vegetative and/or cognitive arousals, has a direct effect on the dreaming process.

Dreams with natural elements in psychotherapy
Creators: name: Fabik, Dusan
Publisher: name: International Journal of Dream Research
Year: 2022

description: The paper focuses on dreams containing images of natural elements. In theory and research, it is based on the extensive works by Ernest Hartmann, who discovered that these dreams appear with increased frequency in people after various traumatic events. The publication considers a broader framework of this knowledge. It assumes that intense dreams with natural elements appear as a result of any extremely intense emotional energy that has remained unexpressed or unexperienced in the dreamer, not just the traumatic one. These assumptions are verified on the basis of three case studies. The first case study contains a dream with the image of a tornado, the second a dream with the image of a storm and the third a dream with the image of a hurricane. Thanks to the analysis of these dreams, which resulted from current scientific knowledge, assumptions have been accepted that dreams with natural elements can be associated with unexpressed or unexperienced emotional energy.

A model of the Dream-Building System based on phenomenological data
Creators: name: Barcaro, Umberto
name: Magrini, Massimo
Publisher: name: International Journal of Dream Research
Year: 2022

description: The article describes a model of how our brain constructs a dream and what functions are involved in this construction. The model is based on phenomenological data, reported in the literature, obtained by experimental research focused on the relationship between the dream experience and events in the dreamer’s waking life. The Dream-Building System is described as a cascade of two sub-systems. The first (the Retrieving Sub-System) performs the function of retrieving, from among the memory contents in the dreamer’s mind, those specific memories that are appropriate for the construction of a dream. The output of this sub-system, i.e., a Cluster of Dream Sources, is the input of the Plot-Building Sub-System, which creates the serial plot of the Dream Experience by transforming its distributed input (i.e., the output of the Retrieving Sub-System) into a serial output. Both sub-systems perform complex functions that require a high level of creative unconscious “intelligence”. Issues regarding typical dreams, underlying emotions, symbolism, condensation, creativity, and bizarreness are discussed in the light of the proposed model.

description: Abstract

Current study aimed to assess the dietary preferences and the extent of plant damage caused by Indian crested porcupines across diverse ecological zones. Field surveys were conducted in 12 locations representing irrigated forest plantations, sub-mountainous tracts, desert ecosystems, and agricultural areas. Vegetation samples, fecal pellets, and live porcupine pairs were collected and analyzed microscopically to identify plant species in their diet from stomach and fecal contents. Damage assessments were carried out using systematic transect and quadrate methods. During Spring season, Bombix ceiba (23.34%), Mangifera indica (11.33%), Melia azedarach (11.67%) and Triticum aestivum (7.66%) were the most notably consumed species. Whereas, Morus alba (11.59%), Sorghum vulgaris (11.18%), Cucurbita maxima (9.99%) dominated the dietary regiment during Summers. However, as Fall season arrived, dietary preferences shifted towards Cucurbita maxima (21.27%), Zea mays (19.78%), and Cucumis melo (5.74%). Specific plant parts such as Stems (111, 28.5%) were favored more during Fall, while dietary preference for Pods (18, 4.6%) increased slightly relative to summer. In Faisalabad, wheat was significantly damaged more than onion (0.0427), Barley than Tomato (0.0287), and Sugarcane than Tomato (<0.0001). Whereas in Qadirabad, Percentage damage to Mustard was greatest and significantly different from onion (0.0002). Bombax ceiba was found to be most susceptible to porcupine damage in Daphar (33.16%) and Changa Manga (30.69%) Forests. However, other trees like Albizzia procera and Acacia nilotica exhibited relatively lower damage percentages, indicating a possible resistance or lower preference by the porcupines. Statistical analyses highlighted significant seasonal and ecological variations in dietary preferences and damage patterns. Non-lethal management strategies, increased community awareness, and habitat management were recommended to mitigate the impact of porcupine activity. Future research should focus on long-term monitoring and the development of sustainable pest control methods, including the potential use of natural predators and habitat manipulation to reduce crop and forest damage.

Exhibition of Dreams

Publisher: name: International Journal of Dream Research
Year: 2022

description: I recorded two thousand interviews with people describing what they had dreamt at night while they were sleeping. Then, I invited local artists of Lisbon - painters, animation artists, and performance artists - to create an exhibition where the dreams were used as inspiration for the art-works. Dreaming and making art come from a similar origin; one is an unconscious action of creation, and the other is a conscious creative process. Interdisciplinary Dream exhibitions can blur the border between these different ways of creation, they can fade the hierarchy between the dreamer, the artist and the visitor. This empirical experiment offers a new, horizontal hierarchy between the dreamer, the artist and the viewer. The paper describes the uniqueness of the Dreampire exhibitions and their specific method in which dream reports serve as inspiration for the art pieces of different disciplines and suggests revision of the view on the relationship between culture and dreams.

Discerning the ontology of dream characters from the standpoint of co-creative dream theory
Creators: name: Sparrow, Gregory Scott
Publisher: name: International Journal of Dream Research
Year: 2022

description: It is not uncommon to have dreams with familiar characters who appear to exhibit independent agency and personhood, whether the actual persons are alive or dead. Discerning the ontological nature of dream characters presents a challenge in contemporary dreamwork, especially if one wishes to adopt an inclusive approach that allows for dream characters to be derived from intrapsychic or transpersonal sources. An inclusive model avoids two possible errors inherent in an either-or approach: 1) Believing that a dream character is a “real” person, a dreamer may disavow ownership over unacknowledged or rejected aspects of self; or, 2) Believing that the character originates intrapsychically, the dreamer may assume ownership of qualities and attitudes that are not derived from within. In this paper, I introduce an integrated view of dream character ontology based on the co-creative dream paradigm (CDP), which allows for the possibility that various sources co-inhere as mutable imagery coalescing in real time on a continuum of relative influence. This approach allows for the possibility that a dream character’s ontological status may derive from multiple sources, shifting in degree of representation from moment to moment.

description: In this paper, the problem of pilot beam pattern design for channel estimation in massive multiple-input multiple-output systems with a large number of transmit antennas at the base station is considered, and a new algorithm for pilot beam pattern design for optimal channel estimation is proposed under the assumption that the channel is a stationary Gauss-Markov random process. The proposed algorithm designs the pilot beam pattern sequentially by exploiting the properties of Kalman filtering and the associated prediction error covariance matrices and also the channel statistics such as spatial and temporal channel correlation. The resulting design generates a sequentially-optimal sequence of pilot beam patterns with low complexity for a given set of system parameters. Numerical results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Foods and substances influencing (lucid) dreams
Creators: name: Biehl, Josua
Publisher: name: International Journal of Dream Research
Year: 2022

description: Research on how substances and foods influence dreams and lucid dreams (i.e. the dreamer knows that they are dreaming while dreaming) is still scarce. For the present study, 436 participants, mainly collected from communities with interest in dreaming and lucid dreams, completed an online questionnaire and answered questions about consumption of some daily foods and substances alongside with dream recall, lucid dream frequency and other dream-related items. For possible interactions, demographics and Big Five personality factors were also collected and partial correlations were calculated. Prominent findings of this mostly explorative study were: when corrected for openness to experiences as an interactive variable, vitamin intake still correlated significantly with lucid dream frequency, (p = 0.013, r = 0.121), but not with dream recall (p = 0.112, r = 0.078); However, when instead corrected for dream recall and age, vitamin intake did not significantly correlate with lucid dream frequency (p = 0.066, r = 0.090); this suggests, vitamin intake influences either dream recall or lucid dream frequency. Also, consumption of fruits correlated with dream recall (p = 0.10, r = 0.124), which might be due to vitamins. Eating fish correlated significantly with lucid dream frequency, after controlling for extraversion and age (p = 0.012, r = 0.121), which is discussed to occur probably due to effects of omega-3 fatty acids. Consumption of chili correlated significantly with recall of hypnagogia, when controlled for age and openness to experiences (p = 0.002, r = 0.154), which is discussed to occur probably due to effects of capsaicin. Smoking correlated significantly with nightmares, after controlling for sleep paralysis (p = 0.049, r = 0.096). Use of antidepressants correlated significantly with lucid dream frequency (p = 0.012, r = 0.122), but also with nightmare frequency, even after controlling for neuroticism (p = 0.000, r = 0.197), which could not be explained by lucid dream frequency. Other hypotheses about certain foods or substances influencing dream variables could not be confirmed or provided less evident results. Further research is suggested for testing more detailed hypotheses based on these findings.

description: We consider a simple realization of an event horizon in the flow of a one-dimensional two-component Bose-Einstein condensate. Such a condensate has two types of quasiparticles; In the system we study, one corresponds to density fluctuations and the other to polarization fluctuations. We treat the case where a horizon occurs only for one type of quasiparticles (the polarization ones). We study the one- and two-body signal associated to the analog of spontaneous Hawking radiation and demonstrate by explicit computation that it consists only in the emission of polarization waves. We discuss the experimental consequences of the present results in the domain of atomic Bose-Einstein condensates and also for the physics of exciton-polaritons in semiconductor microcavities.

description: Dreams are a common phenomenon people experience throughout their lives. So far, no validated questionnaire has been available to assess the Malaysian population’s dream experiences. One of the tools available to measure dream experience and attitude towards the dream is the Mannheim Dream Questionnaire (MADRE). Therefore, there is a need to validate the Malay version of simplified MADRE based on the Persian version to explore dream experiences among the local population and their associated factors. This study aims to validate the Malay version of MADRE (M-MADRE), which was adapted from the Persian Adaptation of Mannheim Dream Questionnaire. A cross-sectional study involving 412 participants from 18 years and above was conducted via an online questionnaire form from August 2020 until October 2020. M-MADRE was initially translated from the English-translated Persian Version of MADRE into the Malay Language using forward and backward translation procedures by a group of experts. The study started by quantifying content validity using Content Validation Index to ensure M-MADRE consists of content validity and is culturally appropriate for Malaysians. The finalized version of M-MADRE was pre-tested and coordinated on 31 participants. Study participants were instructed to complete the socio-demographic questionnaire and M-MADRE questionnaire. The final step was to analyze the data using SPSS version 26 and RStudio software for construct validity by performing exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, construct reliability, and test-retest reliability. In this study, the final model of M-MADRE mostly fits the data, which comprises 3 factors with 21 items, compared to the Persian Version of MADRE with 24 items and 6 factors. The findings revealed acceptable fit indices (RMSEA=0.062, CFI=0.936, TLI=0.927, SRMR=0.054), overall Cronbach’s alpha is acceptable (0.86-0.93), and exhibit excellent test-retest reliability (ICC = 0.95). The study revealed that a 3-factor model with 21 items of the Malay Version Version of MADRE contains good psychometric properties. With this, the scale is proven valid and reliable in measuring the dream experiences Malaysians undergo and their attitude towards it.

description: The affect network dysfunction (AND) model attributes nightmare production and experience to both situational (affect load) and dispositional (affect distress) processes. However, the relationship between these two processes is not clearly specified in the AND model. Numerous studies have reported associations between nightmare phenomena and purported regulators of affect load (i.e., taxing life events). Drawing on triadic theory it was argued that exposure to taxing life events (i.e., daily hassles) is determined in large part by factors associated with affect distress (i.e., high neuroticism and early-life adversity). To test this theory, participants (N = 172) completed an online survey comprising questionnaire measures of neuroticism, early-life adversity, daily hassles, nightmare frequency and nightmare distress. In accord with the hypothesised model: neuroticism, early-life adversity and their interaction all explain unique variance in daily hassles; neuroticism and daily hassles both predicted unique variance in nightmare frequency; neuroticism and nightmare frequency both predicted unique variance in nightmare distress. While early life adversity correlated with nightmare distress in simple bivariate analysis, it was unrelated to nightmare distress after controlling for daily hassles. The results from the present study highlight the need to consider the influence of dispositional factors on situational factors when developing models of nightmare distress.

description: Theories of nightmare chronicity suggest that the distress experienced as a result from the nightmare creates and sustains the coercive nightmare cycle. However, changes in nightmare severity throughout treatment has not been studied. We sought to understand how characteristics of nightmares may relate to breaking a cycle of nightmares in order to disrupt nightmare persistence. We examined changes in nightmare distress and nightmare frequency in a cognitive-behavioral treatment for nightmares for children, specifically testing the prediction that nightmare distress would improve before nightmare frequency. Seventeen children experiencing post-traumatic nightmares between the ages of 5 to 17 participated in a brief, five-session cognitive behavioral therapy to address their trauma-related nightmares. Data from pre-treatment, five therapy sessions, and post-treatment were used in the analyses. Helmert contrasts were used to examine improvement over time by comparing the mean of each variable at each progressive time point to the mean of the subsequent time points. While treatment was significantly related to reduced nightmare distress and frequency from pre-treatment to post-treatment, our findings did not support our hypothesis that nightmare distress would improve before nightmare frequency. Nightmare frequency saw a decline sooner than did nightmare distress. Nevertheless, these findings demonstrate that, as treatment progresses, significant reductions in nightmare distress occur, which may further disrupt the nightmare cycle. Implications for treatment are discussed.

description: Precise measurements of the lepton properties provide stringent tests of the Standard Model and accurate determinations of its parameters. We overview the present status of tau physics, highlighting the most recent developments, and discuss the prospects for future improvements. The leptonic decays of the tau lepton probe the structure of the weak currents and the universality of their couplings to the W boson. The universality of the leptonic Z couplings has also been tested through leptonic Z decays. The hadronic tau decay modes constitute an ideal tool for studying low-energy effects of the strong interaction in very clean conditions. Accurate determinations of the QCD coupling and the Cabibbo mixing have been obtained with tau data. The large mass of the tau opens the possibility to study many kinematically-allowed exclusive decay modes and extract relevant dynamical information. Violations of flavour and CP conservation laws can also be searched for with tau decays. Related subjects such as muon decays, the electron and muon anomalous magnetic moments, neutrino mixing and B-meson decays into tau leptons are briefly covered. Being one the fermions most strongly coupled to the scalar sector, the tau lepton is playing now a very important role at the LHC as a tool to test the Higgs properties and search for new physics at higher scales.

description: Post-conscious is an imaginary state of consciousness that convinces the mind to do the work that it intends to do only to help overcome the conflicts between consciousness and unconsciousness. This state of consciousness is developed to explain what is not explained by the other states of consciousness. So, what we propose is in essence that the post-conscious as such an unconscious function of the mind, designed to ignite dreams that correct or solve these (conscious or unconscious) conflicts or challenges. To determine the role of post-conscious in creating dreams and imaginations of the future. The study is a cross sectional study involving 112 participants from 25 countries. Convenient sampling was employed with all participants involved in the study either pursuing or have completed their undergraduate education with no past history of any psychiatric illness. The questionnaire was administered, and data recorded through in person or video call interviews. The questionnaire was tested for reliability and validity. 54.5% said that they sometimes dream about their thoughts and conflicts about future events. 88.4% of them said that their dreams about the future did not come true for any more than two times during their life up until now. 90.2% of the participants said that this kind of dreams make them relaxed. No significant differences were found concerning age and gender of the subjects dreaming about future events. Dreaming about future events and thoughts do not take enough time to be saved in one’s unconsciousness, which is why they are released by our postconscious to make them satisfied and relaxed about what we are worrying about or stressed about. Some of the dreams causes us to relax, we suggest calling them “Good dreams”, While others make you uncomfortable; “Bad dreams”.

The species was described originally from southern Vietnam (Da Lat) (JÄCH 1995). Subsequently, HÁJEK (2007) published additional records of doubtful identification from central Vietnam (Pleiku). The specimens from Laos reveal that E. pacholatkoi represents a species with a rather variable habitus and body setation; the latter varies from light to dark brown and from grey-whitish to yellowish. First record from Laos.
