Στην παρούσα ερευνητική εργασία, θα μελετηθεί ο τρόπος με τον οποίο η καταναλωτική δραστηριότητα, και οι τόποι στους οποίους εκείνη λαμβάνει μαζικά χώρα (εμπορικά κέντρα, πολυκαταστήματακτλ) , έχει συμβάλει και συνεχίζει να συμβάλλει στον προβληματισμό σχετικά με δημιοσιότητα του αστικού χώρου, το όριο μεταξύ δημόσιου και ιδιωτικού, και την διαδικασία της αστικής σχεδίασης.
description: The term Desensitization, means to make a sensitized  individual insensitive or non reactive. By incorporating the word city, DESEN(C)IT(Y)ZATION, it implies the gradual desensitization of the significance of the city. In this research paper, we will study the way in which consumer activity, and where it massively takes place, (shopping malls, department stores, etc.) , has contributed and continues to contribute to the publicness of urban space, the boundary between public and private, and the process of urban design.

description: We present a pedagogical discussion of the Coriolis field, emphasizing its not-so-well-understood aspects. We show that this field satisfies the field equations of the so-called Newton-Cartan theory, a generalization of Newtonian gravity that is covariant under changes of arbitrarily rotating and accelerated frames. Examples of solutions of this theory are given, including the Newtonian analogue of the Gödel universe. We discuss how to detect the Coriolis field by its effect on gyroscopes, of which the gyrocompass is an example. Finally, using a similar framework, we discuss the Coriolis field generated by mass currents in general relativity, and its measurement by the Gravity Probe B and LAGEOS/LARES experiments.

description: Lung cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is a rare disease presentation. The presence of peritoneal disease is a sign of poor prognosis and is hard to diagnose. Flourine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ( 18 F-FDG PET/CT) is becoming more clinically significant in the management of patients with PC. A 60-year-old male presented with nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and later showed signs of peritoneal disease on 18 F-FDG PET/CT imaging, which subsequently lead to the diagnoses of PC with histopathology from peritoneal biopsy. The patient showed an excellent initial response to their NSCLC treatment but later presented with PC that was shown by FDG-avid ascites and a soft tissue mass in the pelvic area. The abdominal-pelvic lesions were confirmed cytologically to be peritoneal metastatic disease. 18 F-FDG PET/CT demonstrated value in preoperatively directing biopsy for diagnosing PC in this case of NSCLC. Further, 18 F-FDG PET/CT was useful in the monitoring of disease progression and thus influenced management in this case of NSCLC with PC, which is often challenging to detect and manage.

description: Im Fall The Prosecutor v. Ahmad Al Faqi Al Mahdi hat der Internationale Strafgerichtshof (IStGH) zum ersten Mal über die Zerstörung von Weltkulturerbe als Kriegsverbrechen verhandelt. Zentral war dabei die Bestimmung des Verhältnisses von Dingen und Menschen. Auf Grundlage einer während den Verfahren durchgeführten ethnographischen Gerichtssaalstudie und informiert von der Affekt- und Emotionsforschung, identifiziert dieser Artikel die rhetorische Praxis der Sentimentalisierung von Menschen und Dingen als einen entscheidenden Prozess der rechtlichen Bedeutungsherstellung. Durch Sentimentalisierung produzieren alle Parteien des Verfahrens durch ihre Rhetorik normative Arrangements von Körpern, indem die relevanten Personen, Dinge, und anderen Entitäten durch die Zuschreibung von Emotionen qualitativ unterschieden und affektiv zueinander ins Verhältnis gesetzt werden. Sentimentalisierungen bieten affektivemotionale Rahmen innerhalb derer der Grad von Schuld und Unschuld, Gerechtigkeit und Ungerechtigkeit beurteilt werden kann.
description: The Prosecutor v Ahmad Al Faqi Al Mahdi’ was the first case before the International Criminal Court (ICC) that dealt with the destruction of cultural heritage as a war crime. In this case, the relationship of persons and things was central. Based on courtroom ethnography conducted during the proceedings, and informed by affect and emotion research, this article identifies the rhetorical practice of sentimentalizing persons and things as a key process of legal meaning making. Through sentimentalizing all parties rhetorically produce normative arrangements of bodies by attributing emotions to the relevant persons, things and other entities and thus qualitatively differentiating them, and by affectively arranging and relating them to each other. Sentimentalizing provides an affective-emotional frame in which to assess guilt and innocence, justice and injustice.

description: Impact cratering is likely a primary agent of regolith generation on airless bodies. Regolith production via impact cratering has long been a key topic of study since the Apollo era. The evolution of regolith due to impact cratering, however, is not well understood. A better formulation is needed to help quantify the formation mechanism and timescale of regolith evolution. Here we propose an analytically derived stochastic model that describes the evolution of regolith generated by small, simple craters. We account for ejecta blanketing as well as regolith infilling of the transient crater cavity. Our results show that the regolith infilling plays a key role in producing regolith. Our model demonstrates that because of the stochastic nature of impact cratering, the regolith thickness varies laterally, which is consistent with earlier work. We apply this analytical model to the regolith evolution at the Apollo 15 site. The regolith thickness is computed considering the observed crater size-frequency distribution of small, simple lunar craters (< 381m in radius for ejecta blanketing and <100m in radius for the regolith infilling). Allowing for some amount of regolith coming from the outside of the area, our result is consistent with an empirical result from the Apollo 15 seismic experiment. Finally, we find that the timescale of regolith growth is longer than that of crater equilibrium, implying that even if crater equilibrium is observed on a cratered surface, it is likely that the regolith thickness is still evolving due to additional impact craters. Plain Language Summary Impact cratering likely generates much of the regolith (the surface layer made up of a mixture of rocks, rock fragments, sand, and dust) observed on airless planetary surfaces. However, the way that the regolith layer evolves and thickens over time due to impact cratering events is not well understood. When a small, simple crater forms into hard rock, regolith is produced by fracturing the target rock and is deposited in the crater's ejecta blanket and within its transient crater cavity. Here we discuss an analytically derived stochastic model that describes the evolution of regolith developed by simple craters. Our results indicate that the regolith deposited on crater interiors is particularly important to consider when describing the distribution of regolith. Our model also indicates that the regolith thickness varies from one location to another. We apply this model to the regolith at the Apollo 15 landing site by considering the size distribution of observed small, simple lunar craters. Allowing for some regolith coming from outside of the area of the landing site, our result is consistent with an empirical result from the Apollo 15 seismic experiment.

description: The canonical partition function of a two-dimensional lattice gas in a field of randomly placed traps, like many other problems in physics, evaluates to the Gauss hypergeometric function ${}_2F_1(a,b;c;z)$ in the limit when one or more of its parameters become large. This limit is difficult to compute from first principles, and finding the asymptotic expansions of the hypergeometric function is therefore an important task. While some possible cases of the asymptotic expansions of ${}_2F_1(a,b;c;z)$ have been provided in the literature, they are all limited by a narrow domain of validity, either in the complex plane of the variable or in the parameter space. Overcoming this restriction, we provide new asymptotic expansions for the hypergeometric function with two large parameters, which are valid for the entire complex plane of $z$ except for a few specific points. We show that these expansions work well even when we approach the possible singularity of ${}_2F_1(a,b;c;z)$, $|z|=1$, where the current expansions typically fail. Using our results we determine asymptotically the partition function of a lattice gas in a field of traps in the different possible physical limits of few/many particles and few/many traps, illustrating the applicability of the derived asymptotic expansions of the HGF in physics.

Ion Bernstein instability as a possible source for oxygen ion cyclotron harmonic waves

Publisher: name: American Geophysical Union

description: This paper demonstrates that an ion Bernstein instability can be a possible source for recently reported electromagnetic waves with frequencies at or near the singly ionized oxygen ion cyclotron frequency, Omega(+)(O), and its harmonics. The particle measurements during strong wave activity revealed a relatively high concentration of oxygen ions (similar to 15%) whose phase space density exhibits a local peak at energy similar to 20 keV. Given that the electron plasma-to-cyclotron frequency ratio is omega(pe)/Omega(e) greater than or similar to 1, this energy corresponds to the particle speed v/v(A) . greater than or similar to 0.3, where v(A) is the oxygen Alfven speed. Using the observational key plasma parameters, a simplified ion velocity distribution is constructed, where the local peak in the oxygen ion velocity distribution is represented by an isotropic shell distribution. Kinetic linear dispersion theory then predicts unstable Bernstein modes at or near the harmonics of Omega(+)(O) and at propagation quasi-perpendicular to the background magnetic field, B-0. If the cold ions are mostly protons, these unstable modes are characterized by a low compressibility (vertical bar delta B-parallel to vertical bar(2)/vertical bar delta B vertical bar(2) less than or similar to 0.01), a small phase speed (v(ph) similar to 0.2v(A)), a relatively small ratio of the electric field energy to the magnetic field energy (between 10(-4) and 10(-3)), and the Poynting vector directed almost parallel to B-0. These linear properties are overall in good agreement with the properties of the observed waves. We demonstrate that superposition of the predicted unstable Bernstein modes at quasi-perpendicular propagation can produce the observed polarization properties, including the minimum variance direction on average almost parallel to B-0.

description: The effect of the Ta/Nb ratio in the (111)-layered B-site deficient hexagonal perovskite Ba5Nb4-xTaxO15 (0 <= x <= 4) crystals grown by a KCl flux method on visible-light-induced photocatalytic water oxidation activity of their oxynitride derivatives BaNb1-xTaxO2N (0 <= x <= 1) was investigated. The Rietveld refinement of X-ray data revealed that all Ba5Nb4-xTaxO15 samples were well crystallized in the space group P (3) over bar m1 (no. 164). Phase-pure BaNb1-xTaxO2N (0 <= x <= 1) porous structures were obtained by nitridation of the flux-grown oxide crystals at 950 degrees C for 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40 h, respectively. The absorption edge of BaNb1-xTaxO2N (0 <= x <= 1) was slightly shifted from 720 to 690 nm with the increasing Ta/Nb ratio. The O-2 evolution rate gradually progressed and reached the highest value (127.24 mu mol in the first 2 h) with the Ta content up to 50 mol% but decreased at 75 and 100 mol% presumably due to the reduced specific surface area and high density of structural defects, such as grain boundaries acting as recombination centers, originated from high-temperature nitridation for prolonged periods. Transient absorption spectroscopy provided evidence for the effect of the Ta/Nb ratio on the behavior and energy states of photogenerated charge carriers, indicating a direct correlation with photocatalytic water oxidation activity of BaNb1-xTaxO2N.

description: Extended data for the data note submitted to Wellcome Open Research. Abstract Congenital anomalies (CAs) are structural or functional disorders that occur during intrauterine life. Longitudinal cohort studies provide unique opportunities to investigate potential causes and consequences of these disorders. In this data note, we describe how we identified cases of major CAs, with a specific focus on congenital heart diseases (CHDs), in the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC). We demonstrate that combining multiple sources of data including data from antenatal, delivery primary and secondary health records, and parent-reported information can improve case ascertainment. Our approach identified 590 participants with a CA according to the Euro Registers of Congenital Anomalies (EUROCAT) guidelines, 127 of whom had a CHD. We describe the methods that identified these cases and provide statistics on subtypes of anomalies. The data note contains details on the processes required for researchers to access these data.
Some variance reduction methods for numerical stochastic homogenization

description: We overview a series of recent works devoted to variance reduction techniques for numerical stochastic homogenization. Numerical homogenization requires solving a set of problems at the micro scale, the so-called corrector problems. In a random environment, these problems are stochastic and therefore need to be repeatedly solved, for several configurations of the medium considered. An empirical average over all configurations is then performed using the Monte-Carlo approach, so as to approximate the effective coefficients necessary to determine the macroscopic behavior. Variance severely affects the accuracy and the cost of such computations. Variance reduction approaches, borrowed from other contexts of the engineering sciences, can be useful. Some of these variance reduction techniques are presented, studied and tested here.
Characterization of Recombinant Mouse ecto-5'-nucleotidase

description: Chronic pain is the most common medical complaint in the United States and the number of Americans affected by chronic pain is growing. Effectiveness of available treatments varies greatly and many have intolerable side effects. To address this need for pain treatments, more effective therapies are needed. Recently, our lab discovered an ectonucleotidase in the central nervous system (CNS) called Prostatic Acid Phosphatase (PAP). Spinal injections of PAP into live mice produced antinociceptive effects. The following thesis describes the properties of NT5E, an ectonucleotidase that is colocalized with PAP in the CNS. We have generated a recombinant mouse NT5E protein (mNT5E) and have shown that the protein is pure, catalytically active and capable of reducing nociceptive sensitivity in two animal models of chronic pain. We also show that mNT5E acts through A1-type adenosine receptors (A1R). This study provides an additional target for developing pain treatments and a new tool for studying purinergic signaling.

description: Soft elastic capsules which are driven through a viscous fluid undergo shape deformation coupled to their motion. We introduce an iterative solution scheme which couples hydrodynamic boundary integral methods and elastic shape equations to find the stationary axisymmetric shape and the velocity of an elastic capsule moving in a viscous fluid at low Reynolds numbers. We use this approach to systematically study dynamical shape transitions of capsules with Hookean stretching and bending energies and spherical rest shape sedimenting under the influence of gravity or centrifugal forces. We find three types of possible axisymmetric stationary shapes for sedimenting capsules with fixed volume: a pseudospherical state, a pear-shaped state, and buckled shapes. Capsule shapes are controlled by two dimensionless parameters, the Föppl-von-Kármán number characterizing the elastic properties and a Bond number characterizing the driving force. For increasing gravitational force the spherical shape transforms into a pear shape. For very large bending rigidity (very small Föppl-von-Kármán number) this transition is discontinuous with shape hysteresis. The corresponding transition line terminates, however, in a critical point, such that the discontinuous transition is not present at typical Föppl-von-Kármán numbers of synthetic capsules. In an additional bifurcation, buckled shapes occur upon increasing the gravitational force. This type of instability should be observable for generic synthetic capsules. All shape bifurcations can be resolved in the force-velocity relation of sedimenting capsules, where up to three capsule shapes with different velocities can occur for the same driving force. All three types of possible axisymmetric stationary shapes are stable with respect to rotation during sedimentation.

description: In this paper optimal designs for regression problems with spherical predictors of arbitrary dimension are considered. Our work is motivated by applications in material sciences, where crystallographic textures such as the missorientation distribution or the grain boundary distribution (depending on a four dimensional spherical predictor) are represented by series of hyperspherical harmonics, which are estimated from experimental or simulated data. For this type of estimation problems we explicitly determine optimal designs with respect to Kiefers op-criteria and a class of orthogonally invariant information criteria recently introduced in the literature. In particular, we show that the uniform distribution on the m-dimensional sphere is optimal and construct discrete and implementable designs with the same information matrices as the continuous optimal designs. Finally, we illustrate the advantages of the new designs for series estimation by hyperspherical harmonics, which are symmetric with respect to the first and second crystallographic point group.

description: The Open Science Methodological Toolkit aims to provide a concrete input to the task of stimulating the partner universities under the EELISA InnoCORE consortium to embrace Open Science, to cleverly design policies and strategies and to finally engage in open collaboration practices. To ensure that the policies and practices already in place were joined up, and to avoid further fragmentation, the toolkit was built on an action model that leaves room for both joint actions and institutionally customised approaches. The EELISA InnoCORE Open Science Toolkit is comprised of a proposal for a common vision for OS, a survey that assessed the state of play in the OS adoption and monitoring and corresponding recommendations, a roadmap and impact pathways for future developments and additional resources (e.g., examples of policies, courses, repositories). After the Introduction, the need to put Open Science in the spotlight and to lay the groundwork for a common vision is approached in Action 1- Create a vision for open science. Building upon the results of an EELISA InnoCORE internal survey, the current state of play of OS monitoring and implementation is discussed, and recommendations are made in Action 2: Identify Open Sciences practices to inspire institutions and researchers. Finally, Action 3: Smart integration of Open Science in the EELISA InnoCORE ecosystem designs a roadmap for further actions unfolding principles, mechanisms and pillars of action. With that, we try to explain how our activities are understood to produce a series of results that contribute to achieving the final intended impacts.

description: Context. Interstellar dust particles, which represent 1% of the total mass, are recognized to be very powerful interstellar catalysts in star-forming regions. The presence of dust can have a strong impact on the chemical composition of molecular clouds. While observations show that many species that formed onto dust grains populate the gas phase, the process that transforms solid state into gas phase remains unclear. Aims. The aim of this paper is to consider the chemical desorption process, i.e. the process that releases solid species into the gas phase, in astrochemical models. These models allow determining the chemical composition of star-forming environments with an accurate treatment of the solid-phase chemistry. Methods. In paper I we derived a formula based on experimental studies with which we quantified the efficiencies of the chemical desorption process. Here we extend these results to astrophysical conditions. Results. The simulations of astrophysical environments show that the abundances of gas-phase methanol and H2O2 increase by four orders of magnitude, whereas gas-phase H2CO and HO2 increase by one order of magnitude when the chemical desorption process is taken into account. The composition of the ices strongly varies when the chemical desorption is considered or neglected. Conclusions. We show that the chemical desorption process, which directly transforms solid species into gas-phase species, is very efficient for many reactions. Applied to astrophysical environments such as Rho Oph A, we show that the chemical desorption efficiencies derived in this study reproduce the abundances of observed gas-phase methanol, HO2, and H2O2, and that the presence of these molecules in the gas shows the last signs of the evolution of a cloud before the frost.

Who’s Coaching the Coach? NCAA Division I Cross Country and Track and Field Coaches’ Knowledge of Depression and Attitudes Toward Continuing Education
Creators: name: Hegarty, Erin
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: The rate of depression among collegiate student-athletes is as high as 23% (Wolanin et al., 2016). Unfortunately, student-athletes underutilize available resources (Davoren & Huang, 2014). This study relied on the belief that coaches are integral to ensuring student-athlete wellbeing. The socioecological model was used as a framework for examining coaches’ preparation to fulfill that role. A survey of Division I cross country and track coaches revealed that coaches know depression well but may struggle putting knowledge into practice. They demonstrated a strong interest in education in many topics, including mental health. Coaches significantly underestimated the rate of student-athlete depression, highlighting a need for more collaboration/communication between coaches, student-athletes, and medical staff. The results of this study will add to the existing literature on the coaching profession and may help encourage the development of more educational resources for coaches, to their direct benefit and the indirect benefit of student-athletes and universities.

description: We propose a heralded quantum repeater based on the scattering of photons off single emitters in one-dimensional waveguides. We show the details by implementing nonlocal entanglement generation, entanglement swapping, and entanglement purification modules with atoms in waveguides, and discuss the feasibility of the repeater with currently achievable technology. In our scheme, the faulty events can be discarded by detecting the polarization of the photons. That is, our protocols are accomplished with fidelity of 100% in principle, which is advantageous for implementing realistic long-distance quantum communication. Moreover, additional atomic qubits are not required, but only a single-photon medium. Our scheme is scalable and attractive since it can be realized in solid-state quantum systems. With the great progress on controlling atom-waveguide systems, the repeater may be very useful in quantum information processing in the future.

Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy

description: Schools and sports governing bodies have added physical literacy in their curricula. However, until recently, there was no validated protocol to assess children’s physical literacy progress. In response to this need, the Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy (CAPL) was developed; it measures physical literacy by assessing 4 important domains (physical competence, daily behaviours, motivation and confidence, and knowledge and understanding). The relative age effect (RAE) bias is attributable to age grouping by the imposition of cut-off dates; this age grouping strategy is common in sports and schools. However, despite its objective of providing age-adjusted learning, it promotes a relative age difference that leads to a developmental advantage for children born just after the cut-off date. Analogous to the age grouping in schools and sports, the CAPL protocol uses rounded-down age bands to objectively compare children; however, this type of comparison is also known for being susceptible to the RAE bias. The purpose of this thesis was to determine whether the RAE bias was associated with the CAPL scores (i.e., the four domains individually and the overall score) and all of the physical competence domain assessments individually (anthropometrics, aerobic, strength, muscular endurance, flexibility and movement skills). Participants (n=8,233, 50.2% girls), ages 8 to 12 years, from 7 provinces were tested using the CAPL protocol. Analyses of covariance (controlling for age, testing date, body mass index z-scores and testing sites) revealed a significant RAE bias in boys in 2 out of the 4 domains (physical competence and knowledge and understanding domains) and in girls in 3 out of the 4 domains (physical competence, knowledge and understanding and motivation and confidence domains). However, these significant associations between domain scores and relative age yielded negligible effect sizes, thus no meaningful RAE was observed. Collectively, the results of this thesis suggest that the RAE should not affect the validity of the CAPL in accurately measuring physical literacy.

description: Introduction: Dental ankylosis is a histological definition for a condition that is often clinically indistinguishable from other eruption disorders. Confusion between ankylosis and PFE can result in an inaccurate diagnosis, and inappropriate orthodontic management. In this study, we tested the central hypothesis that ankylosis is a distinct pathology compared to PFE due to PTH1R mutations. Methods: 1) We completed mutational analysis of PTH1R on patients with PFE (based on familial segregation) or suspected ankylosis. 2) We performed expression studies to compare PFE and ankylosis in PDL tissue of control and affected extracted teeth. Collected PDL tissue from extracted teeth was used to create primary cell cultures for genetic expression studies. Differences in genetic expression of PTH1R, RANKL, BMP-2, BMP-4, and BMP-6 at the PDL between ankylosed, control, and PFE teeth were tested. Results: Differences in the expression of BMP-4, BMP-6, and PTH1R were found between control, PFE, and ankylosed teeth.

description: The upper Lexington Limestone of Late Ordovician age has been interpreted to represent a structurally controlled, complex, facies mosaic. This facies mosaic has historically been interpreted to be a carbonate buildup of shoal complexes with interbedded shale units with intertonguing facies. Due to relatively recent advances in geographic-information-systems (GIS) mapping technologies, it is possible to generate three-dimensional (3-D) compatible maps to offer insight to the complexities of the upper Lexington Limestone and to determine if structural control affected the distribution of members. The resulting two-dimensional (2-D) and 3-D maps show that basement faults likely exerted a significant influence on facies distribution and formation. The 3-D maps further suggest that post-depositional structural activity during the Alleghanian orogeny resulted in large-scale deformation of the Lexington Limestone to generate structures like the Jessamine Dome.

description: Health, in the current scenario is of greater importance due to the on-going COVID-19 pandemic which is swerving towards versatile aspects of the world. Health is not merely the absence of disease and infirmity; instead it is a state of complete state of physical, mental and social wellbeing. Health and nutrition, in this perspective, can be defined as an individual’s ability to adopt and transform to changing living conditions in life. Tribal communities in India are mainly forest dwellers who have accumulated great knowledge about the uses of various forests and forest products over the centuries. The majority of the tribals are underdeveloped; living in remote forest and hilly areas where they are inaccessible with access to the modern health and nutritional facilities. Since, the livelihood of tribals is associated with nature related conventional solutions, their health is paid less attention which is a foreseen threat to their health and nutrition specially incase of women wherein they face multiple challenges during the phases of puberty till menopause. Tribals in India differ in characteristics such as geographical isolation, lack of technology and living conditions, general backwardness to the practice of animism, tribal language, physical characteristics and the like along with health and nutritional problems. A proper understanding of the various health issues relating to tribal women is required so that relevant health measures identified can be set right and implemented. The Government should focus on regional and community based development approach to improve overall health among the tribals. Malnutrition is high in the tribal population.
Sympathetic cooling in a large ion crystal

description: We analyze the dynamics and steady state of a linear ion array when some of the ions are continuously laser cooled. We calculate the ions' local temperature measured by its position fluctuation under various trapping and cooling configurations, taking into account background heating due to the noisy environment. For a large system, we demonstrate that by arranging the cooling ions evenly in the array, one can suppress the overall heating considerably. We also investigate the effect of different cooling rates and find that the optimal cooling efficiency is achieved by an intermediate cooling rate. We discuss the relaxation time for the ions to approach the steady state, and show that with periodic arrangement of the cooling ions, the cooling efficiency does not scale down with the system size.

description: The perception of chronic migraine is characterised by a long-lasting but dynamically fluctuating headache. In the present study we aim to investigate how this spontaneously fluctuating pain experience is subserved in the brain as variable and dynamic functional connections. Across 4 repeated sessions, we collected EEG data from chronic migraine patients, who were asked to continuously report their ongoing pain. Using an innovative and state of the art dynamic causal modelling approach in a hierarchical Bayesian framework, we will be relating the ongoing and fluctuating pain to the dynamically adapting connectivity patterns in the brain. We are focussing on investigating the core network of well-established brain regions that have been shown to reliably contribute to the processing of pain and hypothesise that: - connections in the ascending pain pathways will be enhanced with increasing pain. - connections from (frontal) regions involved in pain modulation will decrease with increasing pain. - individual differences in pain-connectivity relations could be explained by different levels of pain catastrophising and years of migraine history.
Frauenfeld, Kantonsbibliothek Thurgau, Y 131 : Psalterium feriatum ad usum ecclesiae Fischingensis

description: From the colophon (Finitus est liber Iste feria secunda Post festum Concepcionis virginis Marie. Anno domini 1498. Per fratrem iohannem Coci Conuentualem huius monastery. Iiij ydus decembris Laus deo, f. 186r), it can be inferred that this Psalter was written by Johannes Koch (mentioned in the Fischinger necrology and documented between 1498 and 1514, parish priest in Bichelsee (TG) from 1483 on) and that it was finished in 1498. It is striking that the writing on ff. 98r-110r was traced with black ink by a later hand. The paper pages with a hymn (ff. 187r-188v) were probably added later. The pages of musical notes have 5 red lines with German plainsong notation (“Hufnagelnotation"). The manuscript also has a simple red title (f. 1r): Incipit psalterium in nomine domini, immediately followed by a listing of the workdays. Headings are also kept in red. The front and back covers show the imprint of the former pastedowns. The contemporary yellow leather binding with Renaissance press patterns from the 15th and 16th century has two clasps as well as corner fittings. In addition, the front cover bears an 18th century paper label that unmistakably refers to the Benedictine Fischingen Abbey with the shelfmark C:XV. S:13. Notat: 10.

description: We characterize the pointer states generated by the master equation of quantum Brownian motion and derive stochastic equations for the dynamics of their trajectories in phase space. Our method is based on a Poissonian unraveling of the master equation whose deterministic part exhibits soliton-like solutions that can be identified with the pointer states. In the semiclassical limit, their phase space trajectories turn into those of classical diffusion, yielding a clear picture of the induced quantum- classical transition.

description: Maternal iron deficiency is a world wide and major public health issue. Despite recent researchers’ interest related to this topic, its impact in the offspring still remains unclear. The aim of this study is to understand the impact of maternal iron deficiency on the auditory functions and serum cortisol levels in the young and adult guinea pig at post-natal day (PNd) 24 and PNd84, respectively. Pregnant guinea pigs were given an iron deficient (ID) or iron sufficient (IS) diet during gestation and lactation. An iron sufficient diet was provided to all pups after weaning day. No significant difference was observed in the hearing threshold and latencies in siblings from both groups at PNd24 and PNd84. However, ID offspring showed a significant higher interpeak latency I-IV at 100 dB than IS pups at PNd24. ID offspring also had significant elevated cortisol levels at PNd24 compared to IS control group. Maternal iron deficiency affects negatively the auditory functions and raises the serum cortisol levels, a biomarker of stress in the offspring.

description: Terahertz technology is mature enough for large-volume sensing applications. However, Dook van Mechelen says there are a few hurdles preventing its industrial debut. THz spectroscopy has a number of advantages that point to abundant industrial applications, in areas such quality control, security and biomedical imaging. Yet despite those advantages, the search for a THz "killer application"--a novel, innovative use with a business case strong enough to bring the technology into the industrial mainstream--has remained fruitless, and even the hope of finding such an application has begun to falter. Why has a killer app for THz radiation been so elusive? And how can the road to industrial application of this versatile technology be cleared?
