description: Primordial magnetic fields are often thought to be the early Universe seeds that have bloomed into what we observe today as galactic and extra-galactic magnetic fields. Owing to their minuscule strength, primordial magnetic fields are very hard to detect in cosmological and astrophysical observations. We show how this changes if a part of neutral Dark Matter has a magnetic susceptibility. In this way, by studying Dark Matter one can obtain information about the properties of primordial magnetic fields, even if the latter have a comoving amplitude $B_0 \lesssim0.01~\mbox{nG}$. In our model Dark Matter is a stable singlet scalar $χ$, which interacts with electromagnetism through the Rayleigh operator as $χ^2 F_{μν} F^{μν}/Λ^2$. For primordial magnetic fields present in the early Universe this operator forces the $Z_2$-symmetry of the model to be spontaneously broken. Later, when the primordial magnetic field redshifts below a critical value, the symmetry is restored through an "inverse phase transition". At that point the field $χ$ begins to oscillate and acts as a "magnetomorphic" Dark Matter component, inheriting the properties of the primordial magnetic field space distribution. In particular, for a nearly flat spectrum of magnetic field fluctuations, the scalar $χ$ carries a statistically anisotropic isocurvature mode. We discuss the parameter space of the model and consider the possibility that the bulk of the Dark Matter is composed of the same particles $χ$ produced via the freeze-in mechanism.

description: Language competence and social relations appear as key factors that impact the well-being and academic satisfaction of graduate international students (GISs). This study applies the situated learning (Lave & Wenger, 1991) and the social capital (Coleman, 1988, 1994) frameworks to describe GISs' access to resources to cope with the writing demands of their courses, and to determine whether there is an association between  access to writing resources and academic satisfaction levels of graduate international students. A mixed methods approach, with a sequential qualitative/quantitative exploratory strategy was used in this study. Findings indicate that although graduate international students were aware of the writing services provided by the university, they used them partially. Graduate international students more likely consulted peers, academic advisors, and class professors when writing for their courses. Interesting patterns appeared when comparing students enrolled in the three biggest colleges at the university where the study was conducted. Graduate international students enrolled in the Engineering and Information Technology College used significantly fewer writing resources than students enrolled in the colleges of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences and Natural and Mathematical Sciences. In addition, graduate international students enrolled in the college of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences faced more writing demands than students in the other two colleges. Regression analyses showed that those graduate international students who sought support when writing for their courses and reported higher levels of English ability indeed showed higher levels of academic satisfaction. After controlling for social relations, English ability, and writing demands of graduate courses, writing resources use was also positively associated with academic satisfaction. This research has important implications for expanding our theoretical understanding of writing as a social practice as well as developing programs to improve graduate international students academic experiences.

description: The purpose of this study is to examine the networking and mentoring experiences of  White and Black women as they navigate the management hierarchy of the federal  government. Network theory and intersectionality theory provide the framework for  the study, which used a qualitative research design. The study explores differences in  networking and mentoring experiences of women in federal management by both race  and grade. The multi- agency study includes 18 White and Black women who have  worked in management positions at the GS13, GS14, GS15 and SES levels of the  federal government. The women each participated in an interview about their  experiences with networks and mentors in the federal government. The data show  that the women in the study included primarily same- race and same- grade network  members. Their networks include current and former supervisors who also played  mentoring roles. The results suggest that primarily structural constraints influenced  the network patterns of the women included in the study although there is some  evidence of individual preference playing a role in composing their networks.  Women use their networks primarily for friendship, work purposes, advice and  support. Differences in network and mentoring experiences appear to be more  pronounced by grade level than by race.
Topology of the Warm plasma dispersion relation at the second Harmonic Electron Cyclotron Resonance Layer

description: The Warm Plasma Dispersion Relation, for waves in the electron cyclotron resonance range of frequencies, can be cast into the form of a bi-quadratic equation for $N_\perp$, where the coefficients are a function of $N_\perp^2$ and an iterative procedure is required to obtain a solution. However, this iterative procedure is not well understood and fails to converge towards a solution at the second harmonic resonance layer. In particular at higher densities where the wave can couple to an electron Bernstein wave. This paper focuses on a solution to the poor convergence of the iterative method, enabling determination of the topology of the dispersion relation around the second harmonic using a fully relativistic code for oblique waves. A feed-forward controller is proposed with the ability to adjust the rotation of a step of $N_\perp^2$ within the complex plane, while also limiting the step-size. It is shown that implementation of the controller stabilizes unstable solutions, while improving overall robustness of the iteration. This allows the evaluation of the coupling between the fast extraordinary mode and electron Bernstein waves at the second harmonic electron cyclotron resonance layer, for non-perpendicularly propagating waves.

description: The magnetic field measured in the Madison Dynamo Experiment shows intermittent periods of growth when an axial magnetic field is applied. The geometry of the intermittent field is consistent with the fastest growing magnetic eigenmode predicted by kinematic dynamo theory using a laminar model of the mean flow. Though the eigenmodes of the mean flow are decaying, it is postulated that turbulent fluctuations of the velocity field change the flow geometry such that the eigenmode growth rate is temporarily positive. Therefore, it is expected that a characteristic of the onset of a turbulent dynamo is magnetic intermittency.

Single Women in the Borders: Religion and Philanthropy as Paths to Social Action in Victorian Britain

description: This project examines how so-called redundant women used religion and philanthropy as a means for social action in Victorian Britain. I will argue that some women skillfully negotiated the borders between public and private by first engaging in philanthropy, which then led to public speaking, and then service in various national organizations, reform efforts, and even local government bodies. I will show how four lesser-known Victorian women were pioneers of the feminist movement although they were uninterested in suffrage.  The foundation of this project are case studies of four women, for whom I examine both their private and public writing and their philanthropic and social reform activities. Mary Carpenter (1807 - 1877) helped reform the education of impoverished children and became a renowned pioneer of the Ragged School movement. Carpenter's research would lead to the passage of two parliamentary Acts in the mid-1850s. Louisa Twining (1820 - 1912) began her work as an unpaid district visitor, but she would eventually be elected as a Poor Law Guardian. Twining ultimately transformed healthcare of the pauper sick and helped reform the nursing profession; her work led to the passage of the Metropolitan Poor Bill in 1867. Honnor Morten (1861 - 1913) furthered Twining's work in nursing reform and helped professionalize nursing, as well as serving in local government, most particularly the London School Board. Emily Faithfull (1835 - 1895) took philanthropy to the level of professional work by broadening the options for respectable ladies' employment. Faithfull trained middle-class women in printing, established the Victoria Press, and edited/wrote a number of practical publications advocating women's work opportunities. The final section of this dissertation looks at women's work in the context of fiction rather than fact.  Drawing on a selection of novels by Elizabeth Gaskell and Charles Dickens, I will argue that the significant work being done by women such as Carpenter, Twining, Morten, and Faithfull, was not adequately represented in the fiction of the period. The middle-class, single women studied here all pushed the boundaries of the separate spheres ideology, but their work was too radical to be depicted adequately in didactic Victorian fiction.

description: In this letter, we investigate a quite recent new class of spin one-half fermions, namely \emph{Ahluwalia class-7 spinors}, endowed with mass dimensionality $1$ rather than $3/2$, being candidates to describe dark matter. Such spinors, under the Dirac adjoint structure, belongs to the Lounesto's class-6, namely dipole spinors. Up to our knowledge, dipole spinor fields have Weyl spinor fields as their most known representative, nonetheless, here we explore the \emph{dark} counterpart of the dipole spinors, which represents eigenspinors of the chirality operator.

Imagining selves : the politics of representation, film narratives and adult education
Creators: name: Gazetas, Aristides
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: In today's world of communication technology, film and television more than ever inform and persuade us about our world through a wealth of images. The purpose of this study is to explore "the various way that film narratives function to construct the social reality that constitutes the lived world of social actors" (Mumby, 1993:5). The thesis argues that film narratives and video productions are historical social/political artifacts incorporating important social and political issues through the use of ideology, rhetoric and genre in the "politics of representation." The study examines a number of theoretical positions proposed by adult educators in relation to five poststructural perspectives chosen for this research. The analysis begins with a Lacanian interpretation of subjectivity in the complexities of female bonding with the Other, then follows with Foucault's concepts of knowledge and power, Derrida's perspective on differance, Baudrillard's thesis on "simulacra" and closes with Lyotard's philosophy on the "postmodern condition." The study argues that objects of knowledge are locally and historically specific, and that they become available for human understanding only within certain "language games," "paradigms" and "discursive formations." Following the lead of these French thinkers, the study investigates the central role language plays in the process of socialization while questioning simultaneously, the ideological processes forming our subjectivities. Also the study challenges the foundational basis for historical knowledge and the existing state of cultural power, one that structures identities of Self and Other within societal forms of domination and exploitation. The research concludes with reasons why a postmodern position extends the imaginary spaces for cultural narratives and offers alternative models for adult education. These positions are "necessary illusions" grounded upon our understanding of cultural identities, and focus upon a new engagement of adult education through a "politics of difference." The thesis attempts to help adult learners comprehend their own cultural situation through an explicit understanding of how narrative discourses operate within the "politics of representation" on two levels: one, as a communication phenomenon that pedagogically and culturally constructs human identities through role-playing, and two, as a social phenomenon that both reinforces and challenges the social order.

description: The laser interaction with an electron-positron-ion mixed plasma is studied, from the perspective of the associated high-order harmonic generation. For an idealized mixed plasma which is assumed with a sharp plasma-vacuum interface and uniform density distribution, when it is irradiated by a weakly relativistic laser pulse, well-defined signals at harmonics of the plasma frequency in the harmonic spectrum are observed. These characteristic signals are attributed to the inverse two-plasmon decay of the counterpropagating monochromatic plasma waves which are excited by the energetic electrons and the positron beam accelerated by the laser. Particle-in-cell simulations show the signal at twice the plasma frequency can be observed for a pair density as low as $\sim 10^{-5}$ of the plasma density. In the self-consistent scenario of pair production by an ultraintense laser striking a solid target, particle-in-cell simulations, which account for quantum electrodynamic effects (photon emission and pair production), show that dense (greater than the relativistically-corrected critical density) and hot pair plasmas can be created. The harmonic spectrum shows weak low order harmonics, indicating a high laser absorption due to quantum electrodynamic effects. The characteristic signals at harmonics of the plasma frequency are absent, because broadband plasma waves are excited due to the high plasma inhomogeneity introduced by the interaction. However, the high frequency harmonics are enhanced due to the high-frequency modulations from the direct laser coupling with created pair plasmas.

description: We discover multi-Hamiltonian structure of complex Monge-Ampere equation (CMA) set in a real first-order two-component form. Therefore, by Magri's theorem this is a completely integrable system in four real dimensions. We start with Lagrangian and Hamiltonian densities and obtain a symplectic form and the Hamiltonian operator that determines the Dirac bracket. We have calculated all point symmetries of two-component CMA system and Hamiltonians of the symmetry flows. We have found two new real recursion operators for symmetries which commute with the operator of a symmetry condition on solutions of the CMA system. These operators form two Lax pairs for the two-component system. The recursion operators, being applied to the first Hamiltonian operator, generate infinitely many real Hamiltonian structures. We show how to construct an infinite hierarchy of higher commuting flows together with the corresponding infinite chain of their Hamiltonians.

description: Detecting and recognizing human action in videos with crowded scenes is a challenging problem due to the complex environment and diversity events. Prior works always fail to deal with this problem in two aspects: (1) lacking utilizing information of the scenes; (2) lacking training data in the crowd and complex scenes. In this paper, we focus on improving spatio-temporal action recognition by fully-utilizing the information of scenes and collecting new data. A top-down strategy is used to overcome the limitations. Specifically, we adopt a strong human detector to detect the spatial location of each frame. We then apply action recognition models to learn the spatio-temporal information from video frames on both the HIE dataset and new data with diverse scenes from the internet, which can improve the generalization ability of our model. Besides, the scenes information is extracted by the semantic segmentation model to assistant the process. As a result, our method achieved an average 26.05 wf\_mAP (ranking 1st place in the ACM MM grand challenge 2020: Human in Events).

description: The increasing complexity in today's systems and the limited market times demand new development tools for FPGA. Currently, in addition to traditional hardware description languages (HDLs), there are high-level synthesis (HLS) tools that increase the abstraction level in system development. Despite the greater simplicity of design and testing, HLS has some drawbacks in describing harware. This paper presents a comparative study between HLS and HDL for FPGA, using a Sobel filter as a case study in the image processing field. The results show that the HDL implementation is slightly better than the HLS version considering resource usage and response time. However, the programming effort required in the HDL solution is significantly larger than in the HLS counterpart.

description: Numerous immigrants with limited formal education have recently arrived in the U.S.  These immigrants, lacking native language literacy skills, enroll in adult English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) programs to improve their literacy skills and learn English.  Research indicates that 100-150 hours of instruction are needed to make a learning gain equivalent to one grade level, but that learners attend for an average of 58 to 128 hours.  The purpose of this study was to determine which adult ESOL literacy learners persisted the longest with formal coursework, so that follow-up studies might investigate their persistence strategies. The study examined the records of 462 adult ESOL literacy learners enrolled in a federally-funded ESOL program within a three-year period.  Persistence was defined as the total percentage of hours attended for all classes and the total number of classes enrolled in.  Learners were predominantly Latino and over half were female.  The average age of the group population was 36 and learners reported a mean of four years of formal education in their countries.  The group enrolled in a mean of 1.8 ESOL courses and attended almost two-thirds of their total scheduled instructional hours.  Inferential statistics were used to study a range of enrollment, attendance, and persistence patterns.  Each of these patterns was compared to students' gender, ethnic background, language, world region, age, and amount of education in their native country, but none of these comparisons were statistically significant at the p/ < .05 level.  No significant interaction effects were found. Future research should therefore investigate other factors that may affect persistence for adult ESOL literacy learners, including personal and programmatic variables such as a mentor on-site childcare; pre-enrollment advising; attendance policies; personal value placed on learning English and/or literacy skills; and interest in integrating into mainstream U.S. culture.  Research from disciplines outside of adult education may shed additional light on the persistence phenomenon.  In particular, current research on the motivations for language learning may offer insights.  Policy recommendations include upgrading data systems for enhanced data collection and analysis.  Practitioner recommendations involve a greater use of data and research at the local level.

Bolívar, 1899. Ann. Soc. Entom. Belgique, 43: 602 (Platycleis roeseli variety bispina); type locality and depository: Turkey, Marach (MNCN, Madrid).
Material examined. Turkey, Marach (holotype ♁) (MNCN); Turkey, Kilia (1♀); Turkey, Smyrne, Brunner (1♁); Turkey, Smyrne, Kordelia, Brunner (3♀) (NMW); Turkey, Kütahya, Ikizhüyük (950 m) 21.VII.2003, M. Ünal (1♁, 1♀) (MUPC).
Remarks. R. bispina was described by Bolívar (1899) as Platycleis roeseli var. bispina, characterized by stout head and differences in the subgenital plate of the female, which has a broad concavity. Zeuner (1941) raised the taxon to species level within Roeseliana. This was followed by Harz (1969) and Massa & Fontana (2011). Heller (1988) considered it as synonymous with R. roeselii and Ünal (1999, 2006, 2018) listed it as Metrioptera (Roeseliana) bispina, recording some new localities from north Turkey.
Morphological characters (see also Table 2 and 4) allow to separate it from other eastern (like R. fedtshenkoi, R. pylnovi) and western taxa (like R. brunneri, R. azami minor and R. azami). Male titillators are little curved, slender and nearly unarmed, with only few small apical spines (Fig. 5n).
Distribution. Turkey, recorded from north Macedonia by Karaman (1975).

Title of Dissertation: Perceptions of low-income, HIV positive women of Nakuru, Kenya, on HIV/AIDS prevention and condom use
Creators: name: Mwangi-Mugambi, Hannah Mweru
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2007
Subjects: Women's Studies (0453)
Sociology, General (0626)

description: This is an in depth interview study that seeks to understand how low income, HIV positive women of Nakuru perceive and practice HIV/AIDS prevention.  The study focuses on the sample population in view of their cultural, geographical, economic and political status within the local and global contexts of  HIV/AIDS control policy and population politics.  The study considers how gender, class, and race play out in the sample population's lives, and examines the group's responses to challenges and constraints faced within the limitations they encounter.  Through their narratives, HIV/AIDS prevention practices and in particular male condom use and negotiation, are examined in relation to a myriad of complex heterosexual marriage and relationship types.  The study, based on a semi-urban, slum, residential area of Nakuru, Kenya, exposes poverty, hunger, lack of support from government, kinship, and international organizations, inaccessibility to reproductive health services, and a gender powerless position, as being among the major factors constraining successful HIV/AIDS prevention practices.  The work identifies multiple culture-dependent strategies that HIV positive women of Nakuru adopt, as a form of personal and social agency in response to these challenges. Some of their initiatives include the formation of support group networks, self employment ventures, seeking legal action, educating themselves and others, witnessing, and making decisions to adopt HIV prevention suitable methods.  A set of feminist approaches to the intersection of gender, race, sexuality, and globalization are applied. At the race level, Critical Race Feminism supports the inclusion of Other and is further complemented by African feminist thought that delves on the historical locations of Nakuru women. The positive contributions of Western Radical Feminist ideology support the women's stories of struggles in negotiating condom use, and the sexual encounter. International and local policies regarding HIV prevention, therefore, need to acknowledge and include recipient communities' knowledges and contributions. Fair methods of resource distribution will ensure poverty reduction, without which justice, nor lasting solutions to the spread of HIV/AIDS can be achieved.

description: Larmor precession of the quasiparticle spin about a transverse magnetic field leads to the oscillations in the spontaneous photon echo signal due to the shuffling of the optical coherence between optically accessible (bright) and inaccessible (dark) states. Here we report on a new non-oscillating photon echo regime observed in the presence of non-equal dephasing rates of bright and dark states. This regime enables the observation of the long-living dark optical coherence. As a simple mechanical analogy, we suggest a charged particle moving in the magnetic field through the medium with anisotropic viscous friction. We demonstrate the dark coherence retrieval in the spontaneous photon echo from excitons in the InGaAs/GaAs quantum well.

description: We investigate the effect of an assembly history on the evolution of dark matter (DM) halos of 10^{12} Msun/h using Constrained Realizations of random Gaussian fields. Five different realizations of a DM halo with distinct merging histories were constructed and evolved. Our main results are: A halo evolves via a sequence of quiescent phases of a slow mass accretion intermitted by violent episodes of major mergers. In the quiescent phases, the density is well fitted by an NFW profile, the inner scale radius Rs and the mass enclosed within it remain constant, and the virial radius (Rvir) grows linearly with the expansion parameter "a". Within each quiescent phase the concentration parameter ("c") scales as "a", and the mass accretion history (Mvir) is well described by the Tasitsiomi etal. fitting formula. In the violent phases the halos are not in a virial equilibrium and both Rs and Rvir grow discontinuously. The violent episodes drive the halos from one NFW dynamical equilibrium to another. The final structure of a halo, including "c", depends on the degree of violence of the major mergers and on their number. Next, we find a distinct difference between the behavior of various NFW parameters taken as averages over an ensemble of halos and those of individual halos. Moreover, the simple scaling relations c--Mvir do not apply to the entire evolution of individual halos, and so is the common notion that late forming halos are less concentrated than early forming ones. The entire evolution of the halo cannot be fitted by single analytical expressions.
