description: This paper has its origin in an effort to come to grips with a research problem defined in 1971 in collaboration with the Ministry of Agriculture of Lebanon. Opinion was divided in Lebanon as to whether the country should be European or Arab in its effort to seek shelter in a world of growing economic integration. Forty five percent of the Lebanese GNP arises in a services sector dominated by trade. The research problem was to ascertain how the agricultural sector in Lebanon would fare under one possible outcome of efforts towards the establishment of an Arab common market; a union of Lebanon With the existing ACM of Syria, Iraq, Jordan and Egypt.

description: Thin colloidal crystals (or synthetic opals) composed of Stober silica spheres typically develop cracks when they are utilized to obtain photonic band gap crystals (or inverted opals). We find that by sintering the silica spheres prior to assembly of the opal these cracks can be avoided. We report the effects of temperature and duration of the heat treatment on 850 nm silica spheres using electron microscopy, thermogravimetry, and light scattering. We also find a large dependence of the refractive index of the silica on the temperature of the heat treatment. This may allow tuning of the refractive index of silica spheres.

description: We point out that extensions of the Standard Model with low scale (~TeV) lepton number violation (LNV) generally lead to a pattern of lepton flavor violation (LFV) experimentally distinguishable from the one implied by models with GUT scale LNV. As a consequence, muon LFV processes provide a powerful diagnostic tool to determine whether or not the effective neutrino mass can be deduced from the rate of neutrinoless double beta decay. We discuss the role of μ-> e γand μ-> e conversion in nuclei, which will be studied with high sensitivity in forthcoming experiments.

description: Comets are primitive objects that formed in the protoplanetary disk, and have been largely preserved over the history of the Solar System. However, they are not pristine, and surfaces of cometary nuclei do evolve. In order to understand the extent of their primitive nature, we must define the mechanisms that affect their surfaces and comae. We examine the lightcurve of comet 240P/NEAT over three consecutive orbits, and investigate three events of significant brightening ($Δm \sim -2$ mag). Unlike typical cometary outbursts, each of the three events are long-lived, with enhanced activity for at least 3 to 6 months. The third event, observed by the Zwicky Transient Facility, occurred in at least two stages. The anomalous behavior appears to have started after the comet was perturbed by Jupiter in 2007, reducing its perihelion distance from 2.53 to 2.12 au. We suggest that the brightening events are temporary transitions to a higher baseline activity level, brought on by the increased insolation, which has warmed previously insulated sub-surface layers. The new activity is isolated to one or two locations on the nucleus, indicating that the surface or immediate sub-surface is heterogeneous. Further study of this phenomenon may provide insight into cometary outbursts, the structure of the near-surface nucleus, and cometary nucleus mantling.

Asteroseismology of HADS stars: V974 Oph, a radial pulsator flavoured by nonradial components
Creators: name: Poretti, Ennio
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The analysis of a dense time-series on V974 Oph disclosed the rich pulsational content (at least five independent terms) of this high-amplitude (0.60 mag in B-light) Delta Sct star. A mode with a frequency very close to the main one (probably the fundamental radial mode) has been detected: such a doublet is not a common feature in stars of the same class. Also another term can be considered a radial one, but the high ratio (0.786) raises some problems that can be solved only by admitting very low metallicity. It is quite evident that some undetectable terms are again hidden in the noise, as the least--squares fit leaves a rms residual much higher than the observational noise. All that considered, nonradial modes seem to play a key role in the light variability of V974 Oph. Revealing an unsuspected asteroseismic interest, V974 Oph provides a link between low- and high-amplitude Delta Sct stars. By discussing other high-amplitude Delta Sct stars showing unusual period ratios, it is evident that the asteroseismic approach is possible also for this class of pulsators.

description: The double barrier resonant tunneling diode exhibits complex spatio-temporal patterns including low-dimensional chaos when operated in an active external circuit. We demonstrate how autosynchronization by time--delayed feedback control can be used to select and stabilize specific current density patterns in a noninvasive way. We compare the efficiency of different control schemes involving feedback in either local spatial or global degrees of freedom. The numerically obtained Floquet exponents are explained by analytical results from linear stability analysis.

description: The $K^+$ and $K^0$ meson mass difference induces the mixing of the $a^0_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ resonances, the amplitude of which, between the $K^+K^-$ and $K^0\bar K^0$ thresholds, is large in magnitude, of the order of $ m_{K}\sqrt{m^2_{K^0}-m^2_{K^+}}\approx\sqrtαm^2_K$, and possesses the phase sharply varying by about 90$^\circ$. We suggest performing the polarized target experiments on the reaction $π^-p\toηπ^0n$ at high energy in which the fact of the existence of $a^0_0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing can be unambiguously and very easily established through the presence of a strong jump in the azimuthal asymmetry of the $ηπ^0$ $S$ wave production cross section near the $K\bar K$ thresholds. The presented estimates of the polarization effect to be expected in experiment are to a great extent model independent.

Supplementary Information from Why men invest in non-biological offspring: paternal care and paternity confidence among Himba pastoralists

Publisher: name: The Royal Society
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: 60801 Animal Behaviour
subject: FOS: Biological sciences

description: Paternal investment is predicted to be a facultative calculation based on expected fitness returns and modulated by a host of social predictors including paternity uncertainty. However, the direct role of paternity confidence on the patterns of paternal investment is relatively unknown, in part due to a lack of research in populations with the high levels of paternity uncertainty. Additionally, much of the work on paternity certainty uses cues of paternity confidence rather than direct assessments from fathers. We examine the effect of paternity assertions on the multiple measures of paternal investment in Himba pastoralists. Despite a high degree of paternity uncertainty, Himba have strong norms associated with social fatherhood, with men expected to invest equally in biological and non-biological offspring. Our behavioural data show patterns that largely conform to these norms. For domains of investment that are highly visible to the community, such as brideprice payments, we find no evidence of investment biased by paternity confidence. However, more private investment decisions do show some evidence of sex-specific titration. We discuss these results in light of broader considerations about paternal care and the mating-parenting trade-off.

I show how the mirror symmetry in manifolds with spin(7) holonomy arises as the automorphism in the extended sperconformal algebra. The automorphism is realized as 14 kinds of T-dualities on the supersymmetric $T^4$ toroidal fibrations. One class of Joyce's orbifolds are pairwise identified under the symmetry.

description: The tensile strain is a promising tool for creation and manipulation of magnetic solitonic textures in the chiral helimagnets via tunable control of magnetic anisotropy and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction. Here, by using the in-situ resonant small-angle x-ray scattering we demonstrate that the skyrmion and chiral soliton lattices can be achieved as metastable states in FeGe lamella as distinct states or even simultaneously by combining the tensile strain and magnetic fields in various orientations with respect to the deformation. The small-angle scattering data are discussed in the frame of the analytical model which is sufficient to describe the experimental results for soliton lattice. By using the experimental results and analytical theory, unwinding of the metastable skyrmions in the perpendicular magnetic field as seen by small-angle scattering experiment was analyzed by the micromagnetic simulation.

description: SpiNNaker is an ARM-based processor platform optimized for the simulation of spiking neural networks. This brief describes the roadmap in going from the current SPINNaker1 system, a 1 Million core machine in 130nm CMOS, to SpiNNaker2, a 10 Million core machine in 22nm FDSOI. Apart from pure scaling, we will take advantage of specific technology features, such as runtime adaptive body biasing, to deliver cutting-edge power consumption. Power management of the cores allows a wide range of workload adaptivity, i.e. processor power scales with the complexity and activity of the spiking network. Additional numerical accelerators will enhance the utility of SpiNNaker2 for simulation of spiking neural networks as well as for executing conventional deep neural networks. These measures should increase the simulation capacity of the machine by a factor $>$50. The interplay between the two domains, i.e. spiking and rate based, will provide an interesting field for algorithm exploration on SpiNNaker2. Apart from the platforms' traditional usage as a neuroscience exploration tool, the extended functionality opens up new application areas such as automotive AI, tactile internet, industry 4.0 and biomedical processing.
Ab initio simulations of accretion disks instability

description: We show that accretion disks, both in the subcritical and supercritical accretion rate regime, may exhibit significant amplitude luminosity oscillations. The luminosity time behavior has been obtained by performing a set of time-dependent 2D SPH simulations of accretion disks with different values of alpha and accretion rate. In this study, to avoid any influence of the initial disk configuration, we produced the disks injecting matter from an outer edge far from the central object. The period of oscillations is 2 - 50 s respectively for the two cases, and the variation amplitude of the disc luminosity is 10^38 - 10^39 erg/s. An explanation of this luminosity behavior is proposed in terms of limit cycle instability: the disk oscillates between a radiation pressure dominated configuration (with a high luminosity value) and a gas pressure dominated one (with a low luminosity value). The origin of this instability is the difference between the heat produced by viscosity and the energy emitted as radiation from the disk surface (the well-known thermal instability mechanism). We support this hypothesis showing that the limit cycle behavior produces a sequence of collapsing and refilling states of the innermost disk region.

description: The aim of the present thesis was the study of mosaic samples, which were covered with different coatings, using acoustic microscopy and the examination of modern mosaics using scanning electron microscopy. We have historically studied the construction of mosaics, as well as their materials. We made mosaic samples according to the manufacturing specifications and the materials of the Byzantine mosaics. Then we studied the possibility of imaging the underlying surface of the mosaics using acoustic microscopy and saw the limits of the technique. Finally, using scanning electron microscopy, we revealed the elements end the concentration of modern mosaic tiles and also the way that are made.

description: This narrative self-study relates my personal experiences as a teacher to curriculum and pedagogy and the issues in Aboriginal education. The study takes a descriptive narrative format using a selection of photographs and retelling of my professional and personal experiences to examine ways that the wellness of Aboriginal students can improve through the use of more culturally relevant curriculum and pedagogy. The research question guiding this study was how can my experiences working in Aboriginal communities inform curriculum and pedagogy in home economics food studies courses? I describe and interpret my experiences teaching in an Arctic community, a community on the Westcoast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia and visiting two villages of in the Upper Amazon of Peru. My experiences and review of the literature confirmed that a need exists for curriculum that is more culturally relevant to students in Aboriginal communities. Through the integration of indigenous knowledge into courses like home economics, students stand to improve in their physical health, academic success, spiritual health and cultural connections. While challenging to integrate indigenous knowledge systems into a Euro-centric system of schooling, change is necessary and achievable. My reflection, through self-study, serves to identify the transformative process that I have gone through professionally and personally that will improve my professional practice.

Finding apparent horizons and other two-surfaces of constant expansion

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: Apparent horizons are structures of spacelike hypersurfaces that can be determined locally in time. Closed surfaces of constant expansion (CE surfaces) are a generalisation of apparent horizons. I present an efficient method for locating CE surfaces. This method uses an explicit representation of the surface, allowing for arbitrary resolutions and, in principle, shapes. The CE surface equation is then solved as a nonlinear elliptic equation. It is reasonable to assume that CE surfaces foliate a spacelike hypersurface outside of some interior region, thus defining an invariant (but still slicing-dependent) radial coordinate. This can be used to determine gauge modes and to compare time evolutions with different gauge conditions. CE surfaces also provide an efficient way to find new apparent horizons as they appear e.g. in binary black hole simulations.

description: In materials chiral fermions such as Weyl fermions are characterized by nonzero chiral charges, which are singular points of Berry curvature in momentum space. Recently, new types of chiral fermions beyond Weyl fermions have been discovered in structurally chiral crystals CoSi, RhSi and PtAl. Here, we have synthesized RhSn single crystals, which have opposite structural chirality to the CoSi crystals we previously studied. Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we show that the bulk electronic structures of RhSn are consistent with the band calculations and observe evident surface Fermi arcs and helical surface bands, confirming the existence of chiral fermions in RhSn. It is noteworthy that the helical surface bands of the RhSn and CoSi crystals have opposite handedness, meaning that the chiral fermions are reversed in the crystals of opposite structural chirality. Our discovery establishes a direct connection between chiral fermions in momentum space and chiral lattices in real space.

description: En este artículo se estudia el empleo de los romances sobre Fernán González en las comedias barrocas sobre el personaje. Se parte de una revisión bibliográfica de textos literarios medievales en los que se trate el motivo de la rebeldía del conde. Se listan las comedias barrocas conocidas hasta la fecha sobre este argumento (El conde Fernán González, La libertad de Castilla, Lo que puede el oír misa, La más hidalga hermosura, Las amazonas de España). Sobre este doble corpus, se trazan posibles conexiones intertextuales, atendiendo a paráfrasis, al uso del romance como recurso de ambientación y al empleo de imágenes y motivos tradicionales.

description: We suggest a general rule for the shift quantum numbers k of the relative ground states of antiferromagnetic Heisenberg spin rings. This rule generalizes well-known results of Marshall, Peierls, Lieb, Schultz, and Mattis for even rings. Our rule is confirmed by numerical investigations and rigorous proofs for special cases, including systems with a Haldane gap. Implications for the total spin quantum number S of relative ground states are discussed as well as generalizations to the XXZ model.

Skewness as a test for Quartessence

description: Quartessence is one of the alternatives to Lambda-CDM that has lately attracted considerable interest. According to this unifying dark matter/energy scenario, the Universe evolved from an early non-relativistic matter-dominated phase to a more recent accelerated expansion phase, driven by a single fluid component. Recently, it has been shown that some problems of the quartessence model, such as the existence of instabilities and oscillations in the matter power spectrum, can be avoided if a specific type of intrinsic entropy perturbation is considered. In the present article we explore the role of skewness in constraining this non-adiabatic scenario. We show that non-adiabatic quartessence and quintessence have different signatures for the skewness of the density distribution on large scales and suggest that this quantity might prove helpful to break possible degeneracies between them.

Schroedinger's cat and the clock: Lessons for quantum gravity

description: I review basic principles of the quantum mechanical measurement process in view of their implications for a quantum theory of general relativity. It turns out that a clock as an external classical device associated with the observer plays an essential role. This leads me to postulate a ``principle of the integrity of the observer''. It essentially requires the observer to be part of a classical domain connected throughout the measurement process. Mathematically this naturally leads to a formulation of quantum mechanics as a kind of topological quantum field theory. Significantly, quantities with a direct interpretation in terms of a measurement process are associated only with amplitudes for connected boundaries of compact regions of space-time. I discuss some implications of my proposal such as in-out duality for states, delocalization of the ``collapse of the wave function'' and locality of the description. Differences to existing approaches to quantum gravity are also highlighted.

description: This work considers entropy generation and relaxation in quantum quenches in the Ising and $3$-state Potts spin chains. In the absence of explicit symmetry breaking we find universal ratios involving Rényi entropy growth rates and magnetisation relaxation for small quenches. We also demonstrate that the magnetisation relaxation rate provides an observable signature for the "dynamical Gibbs effect" which is a recently discovered characteristic non-monotonous behaviour of entropy growth linked to changes in the quasi-particle spectrum.

description: This study explores the links between provincial exam testing in British Columbia and teachers’ instructional choices related to social learning activities in Vancouver high schools. This paper provides a definition of social learning (SL) based upon the literature in the field of social-emotional learning. The study examines the perspectives of secondary teachers in subjects with provincial exams and how they use social learning activities. The influence of provincial exams on teachers’ instructional practices was analyzed through a combination of online survey and interview data. A mixed-methods approach allowed us to both develop multiple perspectives on how provincial exams play a role in influencing what types and to what extent teachers use SL activities and gain a better understanding of the Vancouver high school setting and context. Our survey’s small sample size of 21 participants led to significant weight to individual responses and subsequent comparisons between grade levels within subject areas offer observations with reservations. An analysis of our collected interview and survey data suggested that teachers who often interpreted SL as activities that lead students to become participatory citizens valued SL. Second, many teachers value provincial exams but at the same time recognize they may limit their use of SL activities. Third these findings are valuable for the consideration for educational leaders and for future provincial exam policy in British Columbia. Fourth, a teacher’s use of SL is a complicated issue that requires the consideration of a number of factors and its use (or lack thereof) cannot often be attributed solely to the provincial exam.
Optical orientation, polarization pinning, and depolarization dynamics in optically confined polariton condensates

description: We investigate the optical orientation, polarization pinning, and depolarization of optically confined semiconductor exciton-polariton condensates. We perform a complete mapping of the condensate polarization as a function of incident nonresonant excitation polarization and power. We utilize a ring-shaped excitation pattern to generate an exciton-induced potential that spatially confines polariton condensates into a single mode. We observe that formation of circular polarization in the condensate persists even for a weakly cocircularly polarized pump. By varying the excitation ring diameter we realize a transition from the condensate polarization being pinned along the coordinate-dependent cavity-strain axes, to a regime of zero degree of condensate polarization. Analysis through the driven-dissipative stochastic Gross-Pitaevskii equation reveals that this depolarization stems from a competition between sample induced in-plane polarization splitting and the condensate-reservoir overlap. An increase in the role of the latter results in weakening of the condensate fixed-point phase space attractors, and enhanced random phase space walk and appearance of limit cycle trajectories, reducing the degree of time-integrated polarization.
On Non-Gaussianity in the Curvaton Scenario

description: Since a positive future detection of non-linearity in the cosmic microwave background anisotropy pattern might allow to descriminate among different mechanisms giving rise to cosmological adiabatic perturbations, we study the evolution of the second-order cosmological curvature perturbation on super-horizon scales in the curvaton scenario. We provide the exact expression for the non-Gaussianity in the primordial perturbations including gravitational second-order corrections which are particularly relevant in the case in which the curvaton dominates the energy density before it decays. As a byproduct, we show that in the standard scenario where cosmological curvature perturbations are induced by the inflaton field, the second-order curvature perturbation is conserved even during the reheating stage after inflation.

Indications of a Large Fraction of Spectroscopic Binaries Among Nuclei of Planetary Nebulae

description: Previous work indicates that about 10% of planetary-nebula nuclei (PNNi) are photometrically variable short-period binaries with periods of hours to a few days. These systems have most likely descended from common-envelope (CE) interactions in initially much wider binaries. Population-synthesis studies suggest that these very close pairs could be the short-period tail of a much larger post-CE binary population with periods of up to a few months. We have initiated a radial-velocity (RV) survey of PNNi with the WIYN 3.5-m telescope and Hydra spectrograph, which is aimed at discovering these intermediate-period binaries. We present initial results showing that 10 out of 11 well-observed PNNi have variable RVs, suggesting that a significant binary population may be present. However, further observations are required because we have as yet been unable to fit our sparse measurements with definite orbital periods, and because some of the RV variability might be due to variations in the stellar winds of some of our PNNi.

description: Η ραγδαία ανάπτυξη της τεχνολογίας έχει μετατρέψει τα κινητά σε ένα εργαλείο το όποιο είναι πλέον αναπόσπαστο μέρος της ζωής των σύγχρονων ανθρώπων. Λόγω της φορητότητας των συσκευών και της ευκολίας στην πρόσβαση σε εκπαιδευτικές πηγές, τα κινητά άλλαξαν το τοπίο της παραδοσιακής εκπαίδευσης και της εκμάθησης μέσω υπολογιστή. Η εκμάθηση γλωσσών με τη βοήθεια κινητού (Mobile Assisted Language Learning), χαρακτηρίζεται από την ανεξάρτητη και ανεπίσημη εκμάθηση, ωστόσο χρησιμοποιείται και ως μέρος της παραδοσιακής διδασκαλίας. Χρησιμοποιώντας κινητές συσκευές ως εργαλείο μάθησης δίνεται η ευκαιρία να επιλέξει κανείς τι, πότε, που και πόσο χρόνο θέλει να αφιερώσει στη μάθηση. Λαμβάνοντας υπόψιν τις δυνατότητες που προσφέρει το MALL, καθώς επίσης και την σημασία που έχει ο τουρισμός στην ελληνική οικονομία, στην εν λόγω διπλωματική παρουσιάζεται μια εφαρμογή κινητού για την εκμάθηση της ιταλικής γλώσσας, για λειτουργικό σύστημα Android. Αυτή η εφαρμογή ονομάζεται ITurismo και απευθύνεται σε εργαζόμενους σε τουριστικά επαγγέλματα – όπως εργαζόμενοι σε εστιατόρια και καφετέριες, σε ξενοδοχεία και σε τουριστικά πρακτορεία – προκειμένου να είναι σε θέση να επικοινωνήσουν και να εξυπηρετήσουν Ιταλούς επισκέπτες.
description: The rapid increase of technology transformed mobile phones into a tool that is now an integral part of moderns’ people life. Due to the portability of the devices and the easy access to educational resources, mobile phones changed the landscape of traditional education and computer learning. Mobile Assisted Language Learning, is characterized by independent and informal learning, however it is also used as part of traditional learning. Using mobile devices as learning tool, gives the opportunity to choose what, when, where and how much time you want to spend on learning. Taking into consideration the possibilities that MALL offers, as well as the importance of tourism in Greek economy, in this paper is presented an Italian language learning mobile application for Android OS. This application is named, ITurismo and is intended to employees of touristic professions, -such as employees in restaurants and coffee places, hotels and travel agencies- in order to be able to communicate and serve Italian guests
