description: Physiotherapists’ varied interpretations of the International Classification of Functioning and Health (ICF) and the biopsychosocial model underlying it can significantly influence its dissemination, assimilation, and application. This study analyzed the diverse discourses of Brazilian physiotherapists engaged in teaching and researching the ICF. This descriptive cross-sectional study employed Q methodology to explore participants’ viewpoints. Participants ranked diverse statements about the ICF into nine categories from “strongly disagree” (-4) to “strongly agree” (+4). Rankings were analyzed through factor analysis to identify emerging factors, then interpreted as viewpoints based on the average ranking of statements within each factor. A total of 48 experts ranked 59 statements. Participants had diverse specialties, with an average of 19.1 years of professional experience, 13.62 years of teaching, and 16.04 years of engagement with the ICF. Most were affiliated with public universities and held doctoral degrees. Factor analysis revealed two distinct viewpoints, both supporting a biopsychosocial understanding of functionality, emphasizing the ICF’s value in either pragmatic or conceptual terms. The two viewpoints by experts emphasize the practical and theoretical value of the ICF, reinforcing its biopsychosocial approach to functioning. Physiotherapists recognized as International Classification of Functioning and Health (ICF) experts expressed two distinct viewpoints, emphasizing its practical and theoretical significance.The ICF can guide patient-centered physiotherapy.Understanding the ICF helps physiotherapists broaden their perspective on functioning beyond the biomedical model.Physiotherapists recognized as ICF experts can contribute to public discourse on functioning and disability.

description: We investigate continuous variable (CV) quantum teleportation using relevant classes of non-Gaussian states of the radiation field as entangled resources. First, we introduce the class two-mode squeezed symmetric superposition of Fock states, including finite truncations of twin-beam Gaussian states as special realizations. These states depend on a set of free independent parameters that can be adjusted for the optimization of teleportation protocols, with an enhancement of the success probability of teleportation both for coherent and Fock input states. We show that the optimization procedure reduces the entangled resources to truncated twin beam states, which thus represents an optimal class of non-Gaussian resources for quantum teleportation. We then introduce a further class of two-mode non-Gaussian entangled resources, in the form of squeezed cat-like states. We analyze the performance and the properties of such states when optimized for (CV) teleportation, and compare them to the optimized squeezed Bell-like states introduced in a previous work \cite{CVTelepNoi}. We discuss how optimal resources for teleportation are characterized by a suitable balance of entanglement content and squeezed vacuum affinity. We finally investigate the effects of thermal noise on the efficiency of quantum teleportation. To this aim, a convenient framework is to describe noisy entangled resources as linear superpositions of non-Gaussian state and thermal states. Although the presence of the thermal component strongly reduces the teleportation fidelity, noisy non-Gaussian states remain preferred resources when compared to noisy twin-beam Gaussian states.

description: We introduce an inductive argument for proving birational superrigidity and K-stability of singular Fano complete intersections of index one, using the same types of information from lower dimensions. In particular, we prove that a hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ of degree $n+1$ with only ordinary singularities of multiplicity at most $n-5$ is birationally superrigid and K-stable if $n\gg0$. As part of the argument, we also establish an adjunction type result for local volumes of singularities.

description: Nowadays, the health-care system is structured around creativity. The key aim is to bring together a consistent patient inspection structure so that therapeutic services specialists can track patients who are also injured or carry out their everyday activities. This method is becoming increasingly beneficial to the elderly. By using Heartbeat Monitoring, it avoids additional time rates. We have some experience with electrocardiogram (ECG) estimation and pulse testing. Our system is designed to follow a patient's physiological sequence in order to determine when she or he feels most at comfort. The patient is transported in equipment with sensors and telephone applications; the sensors will sense the patient's essential sign and imperative indication, and this information will be transferred to the phone via Bluetooth/Wi-Fi. It also sends an instant message with an alert about the patient's essential well-being. These information findings can be saved in a database that can be retrieved from a remote location if a crisis occurs legitimately. Sensors, a data acquisition facility, a microcontroller, and programming make up the majority of the system. Our framework checks, displays, and summarises the patient's body temperature, heart rate, muscles, blood glucose level, ECG information, and pulse level. This paper can play a critical role in saving a patient's life during a crisis.

description: We investigate the production of gravitational waves due to quantum fluctuations of the vacuum during the transition from the inflationary to the radiation-dominated eras of the universe, assuming this transition to be dominated by the phenomenon of parametric resonance. The energy spectrum of the gravitational waves is calculated using the method of continuous Bogoliubov coefficients, which avoids the problem of overproduction of gravitons at large frequencies. We found, on the sole basis of the mechanism of quantum fluctuations, that the resonance field leaves no explicit and distinctive imprint on the gravitational-wave energy spectrum, apart an overall upward or downward translation. Therefore, the main features in the spectrum are due to the inflaton field, which leaves a characteristic imprint at frequencies of the order of MHz/GHz.

description: The article discusses the basis of axiolinguistic concepts for the analysis of the anthropocentric paradigm, their connection with cognitive linguistics and psycholinguistics. In world languages there are different expressions of the concept of “loyalty”. The expression of the concept of “loyalty” in the Uzbek language is analyzed through lexical units - lexical means and stable compounds and symbols. It is emphasized that the expression of the concept of “loyalty” through symbols is mainly observed in the text of proverbs.
Evidence for an Intermediate-Mass Milky Way from Gaia DR2 Halo Globular Cluster Motions

description: We estimate the mass of the Milky Way (MW) within 21.1 kpc using the kinematics of halo globular clusters (GCs) determined by Gaia. The second Gaia data release (DR2) contained a catalogue of absolute proper motions (PMs) for a set of Galactic GCs and satellite galaxies measured using Gaia DR2 data. We select from the catalogue only halo GCs, identifying a total of 34 GCs spanning $2.0 < r < 21.1$ kpc, and use their 3D kinematics to estimate the anisotropy over this range to be $β= 0.46^{+0.15}_{-0.19}$, in good agreement, though slightly lower than, a recent estimate for a sample of halo GCs using HST PM measurements further out in the halo. We then use the Gaia kinematics to estimate the mass of the MW inside the outermost GC to be $M(< 21.1 \mathrm{kpc}) = 0.21^{+0.04}_{-0.03} 10^{12} \mathrm{M_\odot}$, which corresponds to a circular velocity of $v_\mathrm{circ}(21.1 \mathrm{kpc}) = 206^{+19}_{-16}$ km/s. The implied virial mass is $M_\mathrm{virial} = 1.28^{+0.97}_{-0.48} 10^{12} \mathrm{M_\odot}$. The error bars encompass the uncertainties on the anisotropy and on the density profile of the MW dark halo, and the scatter inherent in the mass estimator we use. We get improved estimates when we combine the Gaia and HST samples to provide kinematics for 46 GCs out to 39.5 kpc: $β= 0.52^{+0.11}_{-0.14}$, $M(< 39.5 \mathrm{kpc}) = 0.42^{+0.07}_{-0.06} 10^{12} \mathrm{M_\odot}$, and $M_\mathrm{virial} = 1.54^{+0.75}_{-0.44} 10^{12} \mathrm{M_\odot}$. We show that these results are robust to potential substructure in the halo GC distribution. While a wide range of MW virial masses have been advocated in the literature, from below $10^{12} \mathrm{M_\odot}$ to above $2 \times 10^{12}\mathrm{M_\odot}$, these new data imply that an intermediate mass is most likely.

description: Peripheral perfusion index (PI) is non-invasive method measuring peripheral blood volume in numerical form and indicating perfusion status. In this study, we have investigated whether the relationship between the measurements of PI and definition of bronchial asthma exacerbation classification and treatment. This prospective study included in aged 5–12 years children applied to the hospital between January 2020 and June 2020. They were divided into two groups as patients who presented bronchial asthma symptoms and the control group who were selected as children applied to the hospital for routine healthy child follow-up. The severity of the asthma exacerbations was evaluated. Before administering nebulizer therapy, vital signs, oxygen hemoglobin saturation and PI values were recorded. Appropriate nebulizer treatment was initiated for the severity of exacerbation and subsequent changes in the PI values were recorded. Pretreatment PI values were higher in children with asthma than those in healthy children (p = 0.001). The PI measurements of the patients for diagnosing asthma exacerbation showed a statistically significant area under the ROC curve (p = 0.001), and AUC (0.842) values of the 2.25 cut-off point of the PI value were sufficiently high. In the ROC analysis conducted to determine the need for hospitalization in patients presented with asthma exacerbations, the area under the curve was statistically significant (p = 0.020), and AUC (0.830) values of the 3.25 cut-off point of the PI value were sufficiently high. The PI measured in patients presented with asthma symptoms may use a valuable parameter for the diagnosing of asthma exacerbations and making hospitalization decisions.

description: We propose that proximity of the first-order transition manifested by the quantum tricritical point (QTCP) explains non-Fermi-liquid properties of YbRh2Si2. Here, at the QTCP, a continuous phase transition changes into first order at zero temperature. The non-Fermi-liquid behaviors of YbRh2Si2 are puzzling in two aspects; diverging ferromagnetic susceptibility at the antiferromagnetic transition and unconventional power-law dependence in thermodynamic quantities. These puzzles are solved by an unconventional criticality derived from our spin fluctuation theory for the QTCP.

description: We propose two novel types of spatially multiplexed single-photon sources based on incomplete binary-tree multiplexers. The incomplete multiplexers are extensions of complete binary-tree multiplexers, and they contain incomplete branches either at the input or at the output of them. We analyze and optimize these systems realized with general asymmetric routers and photon-number-resolving detectors by applying a general statistical theory introduced previously that includes all relevant loss mechanisms. We show that the use of any of the two proposed multiplexing system can lead to higher single-photon probabilities than that achieved with complete binary-tree multiplexers. Single-photon sources based on output-extended incomplete binary-tree multiplexers outperform those based on input-extended ones in the considered parameter ranges, and they can in principle yield single-photon probabilities higher than 0.93 when they are realized by state-of-the-art bulk optical elements.

description: To evaluate the experiences and opinions of adolescents aged 10-14 years with allergic asthma in Turkiye about the online asthma education they received from their peers. Eleven adolescents who had previously received peer education concerning asthma participated in this qualitative phenomenological study. These were asked semi-structured questions to evaluate peer education through a video chat program. Qualitative data were analyzed using N'Vivo (Version 12.5) software. Four main themes and 12 sub-themes were identified in the light of the data obtained from the interviews. ‘The importance of friends’ theme (T1) was established for the sharing, listening to their thoughts, caring about their opinions, and taking their suggestions into consideration sub-themes. ‘The comfort derived from being with peers’ them (T2) was established for the facilitating learning, feeling not alone, feeling understood, and motivation for recovery sub-themes. The reliability of information’ theme (T3) was established for the believing in the reliability of the information and applying the information learned sub-themes, and the ‘opinions about the educator’ theme (T4) for the experiences with peer educators and suggestions for peer educators sub-themes. The experiences and opinions of the adolescents with allergic asthma in this study were highly favorable regarding the education provided by their peers about the disease in an online environment.

description: The paper deals with the Compton disintegration of positronium and a comparison of the differential cross sections of this process with the similar cross sections in the case of the Compton ionization of the hydrogen atom. Special attention is paid to the resonances arising, when the electron and positron move parallel to each other in continuum states with the same velocities and zero relative momentum. It is likely that a manifestation of this effect in the double differential cross section is found as an additional peak, which grows with a decrease in the photon energy.

For $W$ and $W^*$ defined on the same probability space, the $L^1$ distance between $F$, the distribution function of $W$ with $\mathit{EW}=0$ and $Var(W)=1$, and the cumulative standard normal $Φ$ has the simple upper bound \[\Vert F-Φ\Vert_1\le2E|W^*-W|.\] This inequality is used to provide explicit $L^1$ bounds with moderate-sized constants for independent sums, projections of cone measure on the sphere $S(\ell_n^p)$, simple random sampling and combinatorial central limit theorems.

description: There has been a long-standing factor-of-two tension between the observed star formation rate density and the observed stellar mass buildup after $z\sim2$. Recently we have proposed that sophisticated panchromatic SED models can resolve this tension, as these methods infer systematically higher masses and lower star formation rates than standard approaches. In a series of papers we now extend this analysis and present a complete, self-consistent census of galaxy formation over 0.2 < z < 3 inferred with the Prospector galaxy SED-fitting code. In this work, Paper I, we present the evolution of the galaxy stellar mass function using new mass measurements of ~10^5 galaxies in the 3D-HST and COSMOS-2015 surveys. We employ a new methodology to infer the mass function from the observed stellar masses: instead of fitting independent mass functions in a series of fixed redshift intervals, we construct a continuity model that directly fits for the redshift evolution of the mass function. This approach ensures a smooth picture of galaxy assembly and makes use of the full, non-Gaussian uncertainty contours in our stellar mass inferences. The resulting mass function has higher number densities at a fixed stellar mass than almost any other measurement in the literature, largely owing to the older stellar ages inferred by Prospector. The stellar mass density is ~50% higher than previous measurements, with the offset peaking at z~1. This talk describes a paper submitted for publication in the Astrophysical Journal.

description: Testing the distance-sum-rule in strong lensing systems provides an interesting method to determine the curvature parameter $Ω_k$ using more local objects. In this paper, we apply this method to a quite recent data set of strong lensing systems in combination with intermediate-luminosity quasars calibrated as standard rulers. In the framework of three types of lens models extensively used in strong lensing studies (SIS model, power-law spherical model, and extended power-law lens model), we show that the assumed lens model has a considerable impact on the cosmic curvature constraint, which is found to be compatible or marginally compatible with the flat case (depending on the lens model adopted). Analysis of low, intermediate and high-mass sub-samples defined according to the lens velocity dispersion demonstrates that, although it is not reasonable to characterize all lenses with a uniform model, such division has little impact on cosmic curvature inferred. Finally, thinking about future when massive surveys will provide their yields, we simulated a mock catalog of strong lensing systems expected to be seen by the LSST, together with a realistic catalog of quasars. We found that with about 16000 such systems, combined with the distance information provided by 500 compact milliarcsecond radio sources seen in future radio astronomical surveys, one would be able to constrain the cosmic curvature with an accuracy of $ΔΩ_k\simeq 10^{-3}$, which is comparable to the precision of \textit{Planck} 2015 results.

description: We propose a novel approach to approximate numerically shock waves. The method combines the unstructured shock-fitting approach developed in the last decade by some of the authors, with ideas coming from embedded boundary techniques. The numerical method obtained allows avoiding the re-meshing phase required by the unstructured fitting method, while guaranteeing accuracy properties very close to those of the fitting approach. This new method has many similarities with front tracking approaches, and paves the way to shock-tracking techniques truly independent on the data and mesh structure used by the flow solver. The approach is tested on several problems showing accuracy properties very close to those of more expensive fitting methods, with a considerable gain in flexibility and generality.

description: We present a multiwavelength study of the highly evolved compact galaxy group known as Seyfert's Sextet (HCG79: SS). We interpret SS as a 2-3 Gyr more evolved analog of Stephan's Quintet (HCG92: SQ). We postulate that SS formed by sequential acquisition of 4-5 primarily late-type field galaxies. Four of the five galaxies show an early-type morphology which is likely the result of secular evolution driven by gas stripping. Stellar stripping has produced a massive/luminous halo and embedded galaxies that are overluminous for their size. These are interpreted as remnant bulges of the accreted spirals. H79d could be interpreted as the most recent intruder, being the only galaxy with an intact interstellar medium (ISM) and uncertain evidence for tidal perturbation. In addition to stripping activity we find evidence for past accretion events. H79b (NGC6027) shows a strong counter-rotating emission line component interpreted as an accreted dwarf spiral. H79a shows evidence for an infalling component of gas representing feedback or possible cross-fueling by H79d. The biggest challenge to this scenario involves the low gas fraction in the group. If SS formed from normal field spirals then much of the gas is missing. Finally, despite its advanced stage of evolution, we find no evidence for major mergers and infer that SS (and SQ) are telling us that such groups coalesce via slow dissolution.

description: Recently, the formalism needed to relate the finite-volume spectrum of systems of nondegenerate spinless particles has been derived. In this work we discuss a range of issues that arise when implementing this formalism in practice, provide further theoretical results that can be used to check the implementation, and make available codes for implementing the three-particle quantization condition. Specifically, we discuss the need to modify the upper limit of the cutoff function due to the fact that the left-hand cut in the scattering amplitudes for two nondegenerate particles moves closer to threshold; we describe the decomposition of the three-particle amplitude $\mathcal{K}_\text{df,3}$ into the matrix basis used in the quantization condition, including both $s$ and $p$ waves, with the latter arising in the amplitude for two nondegenerate particles; we derive the threshold expansion for the lightest three-particle state in the rest frame up to $\mathcal{O}(1/L^5)$; and we calculate the leading-order predictions in chiral perturbation theory for $\mathcal{K}_\text{df,3}$ in the $π^+π^+K^+$ and $π^+K^+K^+$ systems. We focus mainly on systems with two identical particles plus a third that is different ("2+1" systems). We describe the formalism in full detail, and present numerical explorations in toy models, in particular checking that the results agree with the threshold expansion, and making a prediction for the spectrum of $π^+π^+K^+$ levels using the two- and three-particle interactions predicted by chiral perturbation theory.

description: Grain-size distributions are a key geomorphic metric of gravel-bed rivers. Traditional measurement methods include manual counting or photo sieving, but these are achievable only at the 1–10 ㎡ scale. With the advent of drones and increasingly high-resolution cameras, we can now generate orthoimagery over hectares at millimeter to centimeter resolution. These scales, along with the complexity of high-mountain rivers, necessitate different approaches for photo sieving. As opposed to other image segmentation methods that use a watershed approach, our open-source algorithm, PebbleCounts, relies on k-means clustering in the spatial and spectral domain and rapid manual selection of well-delineated grains. This improves grain-size estimates for complex riverbed imagery, without post-processing. We also develop a fully automated method, PebbleCountsAuto, that relies on edge detection and filtering suspect grains, without the k-means clustering or manual selection steps. The algorithms are tested in controlled indoor conditions on three arrays of pebbles and then applied to 12 × 1 ㎡ orthomosaic clips of high-energy mountain rivers collected with a camera-on-mast setup (akin to a low-flying drone). A 20-pixel b-axis length lower truncation is necessary for attaining accurate grain-size distributions. For the k-means PebbleCounts approach, average percentile bias and precision are 0.03 and 0.09 ψ, respectively, for ∼1.16 mm pixel⁻¹ images, and 0.07 and 0.05 ψ for one 0.32 mm pixel⁻¹ image. The automatic approach has higher bias and precision of 0.13 and 0.15 ψ, respectively, for ∼1.16 mm pixel⁻¹ images, but similar values of −0.06 and 0.05 ψ for one 0.32 mm pixel⁻¹ image. For the automatic approach, only at best 70 % of the grains are correct identifications, and typically around 50 %. PebbleCounts operates most effectively at the 1 ㎡ patch scale, where it can be applied in ∼5–10 min on many patches to acquire accurate grain-size data over 10–100 ㎡ areas. These data can be used to validate PebbleCountsAuto, which may be applied at the scale of entire survey sites (102–104 ㎡ ). We synthesize results and recommend best practices for image collection, orthomosaic generation, and grain-size measurement using both algorithms.

Nanodroplets on rough hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces

description: We present results of Molecular Dynamics (MD) calculations on the behavior of liquid nanodroplets on rough hydrophobic and hydrophilic solid surfaces. On hydrophobic surfaces, the contact angle for nanodroplets depends strongly on the root mean square roughness amplitude, but it is nearly independent of the fractal dimension of the surface. Since increasing the fractal dimension increases the short-wavelength roughness, while the long-wavelength roughness is almost unchanged, we conclude that for hydrophobic interactions the short-wavelength (atomistic) roughness is not very important. We show that the nanodroplet is in a Cassie-like state. For rough hydrophobic surfaces, there is no contact angle hysteresis due to strong thermal fluctuations, which occur at the liquid-solid interface on the nanoscale. On hydrophilic surfaces, however, there is strong contact angle hysteresis due to higher energy barrier. These findings may be very important for the development of artificially biomimetic superhydrophobic surfaces.

Open Knowledge

description: The GEO Community is inherently decentralized by design. Through various GEO Work Programme Activities and other initiatives, it produces knowledge in a wide range of areas, including agriculture, climate, oceans, and more. However, the decentralized nature of these efforts often results in knowledge being dispersed across different institutions and research projects. This fragmentation can hinder the community's ability to discover and reuse valuable insights and outputs its members create. 
Recent years have witnessed a significant shift within the GEO Community. The adoption and increasing prominence of Open Knowledge practices have prompted more initiatives to share not just datasets, but the full spectrum of materials that contribute to research outcomes. These materials, including source code, documentation, technical notes, and methodologies, are fostering a more transparent and accessible knowledge-sharing environment. 
This session aimed to explore the ongoing efforts within the GEO Community to promote Open Knowledge practices (activities, user engagement, infrastructure). It highlighted the concrete actions implemented to facilitate more open sharing of knowledge across different initiatives. Additionally, the session addressed the key challenges and barriers that remain, focusing on what needs to be done to encourage broader adoption of Open Knowledge principles across the community.

description: Abstract  

In an effort to combat poverty, several developing nations are attracting for foreign direct investment. But developing nations are not only trailing behind in attracting FDI, the pattern of FDI inflow to emerging nations is also incredibly uneven. The study investigated the impact of foreign direct investment on gross domestic product in Sub-Sahara Africa. Therefore the data using for this study is a secondary data, so the population of this study is 40 countries which I selected for availability of data.
Threshold Pion Electroproduction at Large Momentum Transfers

description: We consider pion electroproduction close to threshold for $Q^2$ in the region 1-10 GeV$^2$ on a nucleon target. The momentum transfer dependence of the S-wave multipoles at threshold, $E_{0+}$ and $L_{0+}$, is calculated in the chiral limit using light-cone sum rules. Predictions for the cross sections in the threshold region are given taking into account P-wave contributions that, as we argue, are model independent to a large extent. The results are compared with the SLAC E136 data on the structure function $F_2(W,Q^2)$ in the threshold region.
