La musica corale nel Ventennio. Convergenze e intersezioni fra pedagogia, musicologia e musica d’arte
Creators: name: Maras, Alessandro
Publisher: name: Musica Docta
Year: 2023

description: Molte volte è stato sottolineato come nel progetto totalitario fascista, inteso a creare un “uomo nuovo”, la musica corale abbia avuto un ruolo di non secondaria importanza (cfr. ad es. Gentile 1993, Tarquini 20162, Bernhard e Klinkhammer 2017). Inserito dalla riforma Gentile (1923) fra gli insegnamenti obbligatori delle scuole elementari, della scuola secondaria di primo grado, e dei corsi degli istituti magistrali, la pratica del canto corale venne introdotta anche nell’ambito dell’Opera Nazionale Balilla, dell’Opera Nazionale del Dopolavoro, e nelle molteplici manifestazioni pubbliche del regime (cfr. ad es. De Felice 1974; Scalfaro 2014). Pur non essendo questa la sede adeguata per ripercorrere e valutare il decorso dell’insegnamento della polifonia vocale nelle scuole e accademie italiane in quest’epoca, né la sua funzione educativa – o meglio “rieducativa” in senso fascista – all’interno delle “Opere nazionali”, si può nondimeno affermare che il suo impatto sulla cultura italiana non è stato minimo. Circoscrivendo il campo d’indagine, ciò che si vuole mettere in luce attraverso la presente ricerca è il ruolo giocato da questa rinnovata attenzione pedagogica, socio-culturale e politica verso il canto corale all’interno dei contemporanei discorsi musicologici e della pratica compositiva d’arte; e nell’evidenziare quali siano state le interazioni fra pedagogia, teoria e pratica della musica – e quale ne sia stata l’eventuale portata. Attraverso questa breve indagine potranno scaturire ulteriori percorsi di ricerca non solo in prospettiva storiografica ma anche all’interno dell’odierna riflessione sulle intersezioni fra musicologia, composizione colta e pedagogia musicale.

description: We derive asymptotic bounds for the ordinary generating functions of several classical arithmetic functions, including the Moebius, Liouville, and von Mangoldt functions. The estimates result from the Korobov-Vinogradov zero-free region for the Riemann zeta-function, and are sharper than those obtained by Abelian theorems from bounds for the summatory functions.

description: Let $\{S_i\}_{i=1}^\ell$ be an iterated function system (IFS) on $\R^d$ with attractor $K$. Let $(Σ,σ)$ denote the one-sided full shift over the alphabet $\{1,..., \ell\}$. We define the projection entropy function $h_π$ on the space of invariant measures on $Σ$ associated with the coding map $π: Σ\to K$, and develop some basic ergodic properties about it. This concept turns out to be crucial in the study of dimensional properties of invariant measures on $K$. We show that for any conformal IFS (resp., the direct product of finitely many conformal IFS), without any separation condition, the projection of an ergodic measure under $π$ is always exactly dimensional and, its Hausdorff dimension can be represented as the ratio of its projection entropy to its Lyapunov exponent (resp., the linear combination of projection entropies associated with several coding maps). Furthermore, for any conformal IFS and certain affine IFS, we prove a variational principle between the Hausdorff dimension of the attractors and that of projections of ergodic measures.

description: The total yields of the all well-established light mesonic resonances (up to the $ϕ$(1020) meson) are estimated in neutrinonuclear interactions at < E_nu > = 10 GeV, using the data obtained with SKAT bubble chamber. For some resonances, the yields in the forward and backward hemispheres in the hadronic c.m.s. are also extracted. From the comparison of the obtained and available higher-energy data, an indication is obtained that the resonance yields rise almost linearly as a function of the mean mass < W > of the neutrinoproduced hadronic system. The fractions of pions originating from the light resonance decays are inferred.

description: We report a measurement of the longitudinal double-spin asymmetry A_LL and the differential cross section for inclusive Pi0 production at midrapidity in polarized proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 200 GeV. The cross section was measured over a transverse momentum range of 1 < p_T < 17 GeV/c and found to be in good agreement with a next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculation. The longitudinal double-spin asymmetry was measured in the range of 3.7 < p_T < 11 GeV/c and excludes a maximal positive gluon polarization in the proton. The mean transverse momentum fraction of Pi0's in their parent jets was found to be around 0.7 for electromagnetically triggered events.

The activity of sodium in cryolite-aluminun melts
Creators: name: Aylen, Peter Eric John
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Activities of sodium in alumina-saturated cryolite-aluminum melts have been measured by the equilibration of a three phase system of cryolite, aluminum and lead. An approximate linear increase in the activity of sodium was noted on a log plot of activity as a function of NaF-A1F₃ weight ratios over the range pertinent to commercial reduction cell operation. Activities of sodium in cryolite-aluminum melts have been calculated by employing the equilibrium reaction between cryolite and aluminum metal and the thermodynamic data from-an analysis of the NaF-A1F₃ phase diagram. Differences between the reversible deposition potential for aluminum and sodium at one atmosphere partial pressure were calculated from the measured equilibrium sodium activities. The values obtained were of the order of .15 to .4O volts, increasing with decreasing NaF-A1F₃, ratio.

The working group for microgrid protection systems was given the assignment to develop a report to the System Protection Subcommittee of the IEEE Power System Relaying and Control Committee. The report will investigate and assess techniques, approaches, and potential solutions to the challenges of microgrid protection.
Distribution-connected and behind-the-meter distributed energy resources (DERs), including generation and energy storage systems, are being increasingly integrated into electrical power systems. Microgrids help leverage these DERs to keep the power on when the normal supply is unavailable (e.g., due to faults or equipment outages). These systems, however, present unique protection challenges to detect and respond to faults. This report describes some challenges and 6 potential solutions for microgrid protection.

description: Generalizing the scaling limit of Martelli and Sparks [hep-th/0505027] into an arbitrary number of spacetime dimensions we re-obtain the (most general explicitly known) Einstein-Sasaki spaces constructed by Chen, Lu, and Pope [hep-th/0604125]. We demonstrate that this limit has a well-defined geometrical meaning which links together the principal conformal Killing-Yano tensor of the original Kerr-NUT-(A)dS spacetime, the Kahler 2-form of the resulting Einstein-Kahler base, and the Sasakian 1-form of the final Einstein-Sasaki space. The obtained Einstein-Sasaki space possesses the tower of Killing-Yano tensors of increasing rank, underlined by the existence of Killing spinors. A similar tower of hidden symmetries is observed in the original (odd-dimensional) Kerr-NUT-(A)dS spacetime. This rises an interesting question whether also these symmetries can be related to the existence of some "generalized" Killing spinor.

Can you stomach it? A content analysis of TikTok videos and comments about weight loss with Ozempic

description: Medications containing semaglutide, like Ozempic, have recently gained popularity due to their ability to help people lose weight quickly and effectively. The hashtag “#Ozempic” has been viewed hundreds of millions of times on TikTok, making the social media platform a useful place to analyze the discourse surrounding medical weight loss. In this study, I conduct a content analysis on sixteen TikTok videos and their accompanying comments to compare how people discuss weight loss with Ozempic and weight loss with more traditional diet methods through the example of WeightWatchers. This analysis reveals that, in many ways, people discuss Ozempic in a manner that resembles discussions about traditional diets. For instance, people using Ozempic share their specific biometric information on TikTok to compare the amount of weight they have lost on the drug with others, and they share tips on how to lose more weight with the medication. However, there are some key differences, including the reliance on a medical framing of fatness to justify using medication for weight loss. While people participating in the WeightWatchers program can employ a variety of framings to explain their desire to lose weight, people using Ozempic rely almost exclusively on the framing of obesity as a disease, illustrating how the use of medication for weight loss is only seen as acceptable when it is explicitly related to health, and not to vanity. The medicalization of fatness plays a critical role in how people discuss Ozempic, providing insight on how medical weight loss might change the way people talk about the relationship between weight loss, health, and beauty.

Emotion Recognition

description: Facial emotion recognition, the ability to interpret facial expression of emotion, is a core sociocognitive ability which supports successful social interactions and the development of more complex skills in social cognition such as empathy. Deficits in this area can have a negative impact upon children’s performance socially and in education. Despite the importance of this skill most tests of emotion recognition were designed for adults without adaption for children's developmental stage. This study is an exploratory, first phase development of a new test of emotion recognition for children; the Alien Quiz. This test includes two novel additions to emotion recognition assessment for children: a game-like format in the Guess the Alien subtest, and culturally neutral emotion stimuli. Twenty-five children from a mainstream primary school took part in the study to understand whether children apply similar strategies in the Alien Quiz and whether the Alien Quiz could be used as a measure of emotion recognition. Preliminary scoring was developed for allsubtests for the task, novel methods of scoring were developed for the game-like task, traditional scoring was adapted for the other subtests. Content analysis of the Guess the Alien subtest indicated that children used similar patterns of responding within the task and relied upon emotion as a means of categorisation. Descriptive statistics showed that children’s accuracy in identifying core emotions using novel cartoon stimuli was similar to accuracy reported in previous studies. Children expressed that they enjoyed the game-like task more than another task. With amendments noted in the limitations of this study, the Alien Quiz has potential to be used as a measure of emotion recognition for children. Continued research is required in order to assess validity, norms, and reliability of the task prior to its use clinically.

description: The knowledge of the Free Energy Landscape topology is the essential key to understand many biochemical processes. The determination of the conformers of a protein and their basins of attraction takes a central role for studying molecular isomerization reactions. In this work, we present a novel framework to unveil the features of a Free Energy Landscape answering questions such as how many meta-stable conformers are, how the hierarchical relationship among them is, or what the structure and kinetics of the transition paths are. Exploring the landscape by molecular dynamics simulations, the microscopic data of the trajectory are encoded into a Conformational Markov Network. The structure of this graph reveals the regions of the conformational space corresponding to the basins of attraction. In addition, handling the Conformational Markov Network, relevant kinetic magnitudes as dwell times or rate constants, and the hierarchical relationship among basins, complete the global picture of the landscape. We show the power of the analysis studying a toy model of a funnel-like potential and computing efficiently the conformers of a short peptide, the dialanine, paving the way to a systematic study of the Free Energy Landscape in large peptides.

4D spacetimes embedded in 5D light-like Kasner universes

description: We consider spatially homogeneous, anisotropic cosmological models in 5D whose line element can be written as $dS^2 = {\cal{A}}(u, v)du dv - {\cal{B}}_{i j}(u, v)dx^{i}dx^{j}$, $(i, j = 1, 2, 3)$, where $u$ and $v$ are light-like coordinates. In the case where ${\cal{B}}_{i j}$ is diagonal, we construct three families of analytic solutions to the 5D vacuum field equations $R_{AB} = 0$ $ (A, B = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4)$. Among them, there is a family of self-similar homothetic solutions that contains, as a particular case, the so-called light-like Kasner universes. In this work we provide a detailed study of the different types of 4D scenarios that can be embedded in such universes. For the sake of generality of the discussion, and applicability of the results, in our analysis we consider the two versions of non-compactified 5D relativity in vogue, viz., braneworld theory and induced matter theory. We find a great variety of cosmological models in 4D which are anisotropic versions of the FRW ones. We obtain models on the brane with a non-vanishing cosmological term $Λ_{(4)}$, which inflate {\it à la} de Sitter without satisfying the classical false-vacuum equation of state. Using the symmetry of the solutions, we construct a class of non-static vacuum solutions on the brane. We also develop {\it static} pancake-like distributions where the matter is concentrated in a thin surface (near $z = 0$), similar to those proposed by Zel'dovich for the shape of the first collapsed objects in an expanding anisotropic universe. The solutions discussed here can be applied in a variety of physical situations.

We also show preliminary results concerning the computation of lithium yields from super-AGBs, and suggest that super-AGBs of metallicity close to solar may be the most important galactic lithium producers. Finally, we discuss how lithium abundances may help to understand the modalities of formation of the "second generation" stars in globular clusters.

description: From first-principles calculations, we investigate the structural instabilities of CaMnO$_3$. We point out that, on top of a strong antiferrodistortive instability responsible for its orthorhombic ground-state, the cubic perovskite structure of CaMnO$_3$ also exhibit a weak ferroelectric instability. Although ferroelectricity is suppressed by antiferrodistortive oxygen motions, we show that it can be favored using strain or chemical engineering in order to make CaMnO$_3$ multiferroic. We finally highlight that the FE instability of CaMnO$_3$ is Mn-dominated. This illustrates that, contrary to the common believe, ferroelectricity and magnetism are not necessarily exclusive but can be driven by the same cation.

description: This study aims at investigating physical–chemical properties of a water-soluble heteropolysaccharide from Plnatago asiatica L. leaves, and its immunomodulatory effects on macrophages RAW264.7 cells. Hot water-extracted crude polysaccharide from the plant leaves (PLLCP) was fractionated into four fractions by DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow eluted with 0.1–0.5 M NaCl solutions. The most abundant fraction (0.3 M NaCl elution), designated PLLP-2, was identified as a heteropolysaccharide with an average molecular weight (Mw) of 3.54 × 104 and composed mainly of Gal (34.4%), GalA (36.5%), Ara (10.1%) and Rha (8.4%). PLLP-2 was an acidic polysaccharide exhibiting inflaky curly aggregation with smooth surface. PLLCP and its main subfraction PLLP-2 displayed immunomodulatory activities by stimulating the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including TNF-α and IL-1β in macrophage RAW264.7 cells. These results indicate that the main polysaccharide fraction purified from P. asiatica L. leaves is probably pectin, and have potential immunomodulatory function.

description: A Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) provides an attractive dark matter candidate, and should be within reach of the next generation of high-energy colliders. We consider the process of direct WIMP pair-production, accompanied by an initial-state radiation photon, in electron-positron collisions at the proposed International Linear Collider (ILC). We present a parametrization of the differential cross section for this process which conveniently separates the model-independent information provided by cosmology from the model-dependent inputs from particle physics. As an application, we consider two simple models, one supersymmetric, and another of the "universal extra dimensions" (UED) type. The discovery reach of the ILC and the expected precision of parameter measurements are studied in each model. In addition, for each of the two examples, we also investigate the ability of the ILC to distinguish between the two models through a shape-discrimination analysis of the photon energy spectrum. We show that with sufficient beam polarization the alternative model interpretation can be ruled out in a large part of the relevant parameter space.

description: Oaths and vows in Hebrew Bible function as poetic conventions: instruments with which the contours of plot are shaped and the subtleties of characterisation are defined. When an oath or vow is spoken, the result is heightened suspense and anticipation—will the promise be kept or broken, and by what means? Whether fulfilled or forgotten, these emphatic statements also shed light on the characters who speak and (in some cases) refute them. Particularly informative are the idiosyncrasies of oaths and vows: the points at which any given promise differs from the expected formulae established for emphatic statements in Hebrew Bible. What follows is an examination of four case studies (the book of Ruth, 1 Sam 24-26, Judg 11, and 1 Sam 1-2), each one a narrative that revolves around an oath or vow. The emphatic statements featured at the centre of these texts diverge from their expected formulae in illuminating ways; in addition, each promise is spoken by or with regard to a prominent female character. The representation of female characters in Hebrew Bible is an oft-debated subject and therefore serves as a prime backdrop for the revelatory capacity of oaths and vows as instruments of poesis in this context.

description: Critical phenomena in non-equilibrium systems have been studied by means of a wide variety of theoretical and experimental approaches. Mode-coupling, renormalization group, complex Lie algebras and diagrammatic techniques are some of the usual theoretical tools. Experimental studies include light and inelastic neutron scattering, X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy, microwave interferometry and several other techniques. Nevertheless no conclusive reatment has been developed from the basic principles of a thermodynamic theory of irreversible processes. We have developed a formalism in which we obtain correlation functions as field averages of the associated functions. By applying such formalism we attempt to find out if the resulting correlation functions will inherit the mathematical properties (integrability, generalized homogeneity, scaling laws) of its parent potentials, and we will also use these correlation functions to study the behavior of macroscopic systems far from equilibrium, specially in the neighborhood of critical points or dynamic phase transitions. As a working example we will consider the mono-critical behavior of a non-equilibrium binary fluid mixture close to its consolute point.

description: We present the proposition of an experiment in which the multiphoton quantum superposition consisting of N= 10^5 particles generated by a quantum-injected optical parametric amplifier (QI-OPA), seeded by a single-photon belonging to an EPR entangled pair, is made to interact with a Mirror-BEC shaped as a Bragg interference structure. The overall process will realize a Macroscopic Quantum Superposition (MQS) involving a microscopic single-photon state of polarization entangled with the coherent macroscopic transfer of momentum to the BEC structure, acting in space-like separated distant places.

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: This study was initiated to determine the importance of various tree characteristics and environmental factors in controlling Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) latewood formation during the five-year period 1957 to 1961. The sample included 324 mature trees representing five site types and four crown classes on the University Research Forest, Haney, B.C. Two wood "plugs" were taken from each tree at approximate breast height. The influence of seasonal variations in precipitation, temperature and frost free days on growth ring characteristics was also examined. Individuals showed significant differences in ring, earlywood and latewood zone width, and latewood percentage. Replicate samples within trees showed smaller differences. Width of earlywood and latewood increased with increasing site moisture; latewood percentage increased with dry and wet to mesic sites, suggesting some unexplained compensating mechanism. Earlywood and latewood widths increased from suppressed to dominant trees when data from all sites were grouped. No significant differences in latewood percentage were shown among crown classes, suggesting that adverse factors affecting the lower classes must influence both zones similarly. Diameter at breast height had the most influence of any tree characteristic studied, but was related to many other tree variables. Crown volume was second in importance, the order of factors being similar for all five sites. Other tree factors investigated were height, competition factor and distance to live crown. When considered in conjunction, the five tree variables accounted for about 55 per cent of the variation in ring, earlywood and latewood width. This varied somewhat with growth and site characteristics. Latewood percentage was explained to the extent of 5 per cent except on the very dry site, where 29 per cent was accounted for, mainly by crown volume and distance to live crown. Correlations with climatic factors were generally poor probably resulting from the equable climate of the area and the absence of extremes during the period studied. Both early and late season precipitation correlated positively with latewood percentage. Temperature generally showed a negative relationship with this variable. The overall dominating influence of available moisture on latewood production was shown.

description: Gaia is a satellite mission of the ESA, aiming at absolute astrometric measurements of about one billion stars (all stars down to 20th magnitude, with unprecedented accuracy. Additionally, magnitudes and colors will be obtained for all these stars, while radial-velocities and spectral properties will be determined only for bright objects (V<17.5). At 15th magnitude Gaia aims at an angular accuracy of 20 microarcseconds (muas). This goal can only be reached if the geometry of the telescopes, the detectors, and the pointing of Gaia at each moment ("attitude") can be inferred from the Gaia measurements itself with muas accuracy.

description: The radio frequency spectrum of the fermions in the unitary limit at finite temperatures is characterized by the sum rule relations. We consider a simple picture where the atoms are removed by radio frequency excitations from the strongly interacting states into a state of negligible interaction. We calculate the moments of the response function in the range of temperature $0.08 ε_F < T < 0.8 ε_F$ using auxiliary field Monte Carlo technique (AFMC) in which continuum auxiliary fields with a density dependent shift are used. We estimate the effects of superfluid pairing from the clock shift. We find a qualitative agreement with the pairing gap - pseudogap transition behavior. We also find within the quasiparticle picture that in order for the gap to come into quantitative agreement with the previously known value at T=0, the effective mass has to be $m^* \sim 1.43 m$. Finally, we discuss implications for the adiabatic sweep of the resonant magnetic field.

An investigation into the possible relationship of adenosine triphosphate to sensory synaptic transmitter substances
Creators: name: Muirhead, Christopher Robert
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: An attempt has been made to determine the relationship, if any, between adenosine triphosphate and the transmitter substance responsible for antidromic vasodilatation. Extracts of various areas of the central nervous system have been made by dialyzing boiled, ground brain tissue against distilled water. These extracts were analyzed for; labile phosphate content by the method of Berenblum and Chain (66), adenosine triphosphate content by paper chromatography and by the luciferin-luciferase enzyme method of Strehler and Totter (69). The content of vasodilator activity of extracts from the same areas was determined by the method of Holton (35). The extracts to be tested were injected into the facial artery of a rabbit and allowed to flow into the auricular artery and through the ear. The changes produced in the ear were detected by means of a photoelectric cell which measured differences in the amount of light passing through the ear. Vasodilatation appeared as a decrease in the amount of light transmitted through the ear and vasoconstriction as an increase. It was thought that if there was a relationship between adenozine triphosphate and the transmitter material the areas containing the most ATP should also contain the most vasodilator activity. A comparison of the location and concentration of the two substances revealed no such correlation. The two most important questions to be answered were: 1. is ATP the substance responsible for antidromic vasodilatation? and 2. if so, is it also a sensory synaptic transmitter substance? It was concluded that ATP was unlikely to be the substance responsible for antidromic vasodilatation. If one accepts Dale's hypothesis (48) that a neurone may employ the same transmitter substance at all branches of the axon, then it would also seem to rule out ATP as a sensory synaptic transmitter agent.

description: We argue that the natural framework for embedding the ideas of deformed, or doubly, special relativity (DSR) into a curved spacetime is a generalisation of Einstein-Cartan theory, considered by Stelle and West. Instead of interpreting the noncommuting "spacetime coordinates" of the Snyder algebra as endowing spacetime with a fundamentally noncommutative structure, we are led to consider a connection with torsion in this framework. This may lead to the usual ambiguities in minimal coupling. We note that observable violations of charge conservation induced by torsion should happen on a time scale of 10^3 s, which seems to rule out these modifications as a serious theory. Our considerations show, however, that the noncommutativity of translations in the Snyder algebra need not correspond to noncommutative spacetime in the usual sense.

The Peril of Popular Deep Learning Uncertainty Estimation Methods

Publisher: name: CISPA

description: Uncertainty estimation (UE) techniques -- such as the Gaussian process (GP), Bayesian neural networks (BNN), Monte Carlo dropout (MCDropout) -- aim to improve the interpretability of machine learning models by assigning an estimated uncertainty value to each of their prediction outputs. However, since too high uncertainty estimates can have fatal consequences in practice, this paper analyzes the above techniques.
Firstly, we show that GP methods always yield high uncertainty estimates on out of distribution (OOD) data. Secondly, we show on a 2D toy example that both BNNs and MCDropout do not give high uncertainty estimates on OOD samples. Finally, we show empirically that this pitfall of BNNs and MCDropout holds on real world datasets as well. Our insights (i) raise awareness for the more cautious use of currently popular UE methods in Deep Learning, (ii) encourage the development of UE methods that approximate GP-based methods -- instead of BNNs and MCDropout, and (iii) our empirical setups can be used for verifying the OOD performances of any other UE method.

description: This report covers the research undertaken in the Autonomous Region of Bougainville as part of the much larger project, Do No Harm: Understanding the Relationship between Women’s Economic Empowerment and Violence against Women in Melanesia. The Do No Harm research addresses the question of how to improve women’s economic agency and the security of their livelihoods without compromising their safety. It sought to capture the diversity of ways that women endeavour to overcome economic disadvantage in contemporary Melanesia. Fieldwork for the Do No Harm research was undertaken in Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea, with a total of 485 interviews conducted, including 238 with women.1 The interviews generated a large body of rich qualitative data on women’s lives and the difficulties and challenges they confront as they seek to earn income in order to improve their lives and those of their children.

description: Shock breakout is the brightest radiative phenomenon in a Type II supernova (SN). Although it was predicted to be bright, the direct observation is difficult due to the short duration and X-ray/ultraviolet-peaked spectra. First entire observations of the shock breakouts of Type II Plateau SNe (SNe IIP) were reported in 2008 by ultraviolet and optical observations by the {\it GALEX} satellite and supernova legacy survey (SNLS), named SNLS-04D2dc and SNLS-06D1jd. We present multicolor light curves of a SN IIP, including the shock breakout and plateau, calculated with a multigroup radiation hydrodynamical code {\sc STELLA} and an evolutionary progenitor model. The synthetic multicolor light curves reproduce well the observations of SNLS-04D2dc. This is the first study to reproduce the ultraviolet light curve of the shock breakout and the optical light curve of the plateau consistently. We conclude that SNLS-04D2dc is the explosion with a canonical explosion energy $1.2\times10^{51}$ ergs and that its progenitor is a star with a zero-age main-sequence mass $20M_\odot$ and a presupernova radius $800R_\odot$. The model demonstrates that the peak apparent $B$-band magnitude of the shock breakout would be $m_{\rm B}\sim26.4$ mag if a SN being identical to SNLS-04D2dc occurs at a redshift $z=1$, which can be reached by 8m-class telescopes. The result evidences that the shock breakout has a great potential to detect SNe IIP at $z\gsim1$.

description: Low-temperature magnetic properties of epitaxial BiFeO3 thin films grown on (111)-SrTiO3 substrates have been studied. ZFC and FC magnetization curves show a large discrepency beginning at a characteristic temperature Tf that is dependent on the magnetic-field strengh. Tf(H) varies according to the well known de Aleimda-Thouless line (varies in Hexp(2/3)) suggesting an acentric long rnage spin-glass behavior and mean field system.
