Comment on "Hypersharp Resonant Capture of Neutrinos as a Laboratory Probe of the Planck Length"
Creators: name: Potzel, W.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 091804 (2009) [arXiv:0903.0787], R.S. Raghavan claims that due to motional averaging by lattice vibrations, 18.6 keV electron antineutrinos emitted/captured without recoil from 2-body decay in the 3H/3He system embedded in Nb metal will be observable with natural width. In this comment we argue that 1) stochastic relaxation processes and 2) inhomogeneities in the metal matrices will prevent the generation of antineutrinos with natural width in the 3H/3He system, 3) the different lattice-deformation energies of 3H and 3He in the Nb matrix will drastically decrease the fraction of phononless emission/detection of antineutrinos, 4) the age itself of the 3H source does not affect the linewidth.
DINAMICHE DI LAVORO NEI PROGETTI DI COOPERAZIONE. RIFLESSIONI, TRA LE DIFFERENZE, ATTORNO AL “CASO UNI.COO”

description: L’esperienza di cooperazione dei progetti Uni.Coo può essere letta, tra le altre chiavi interpretative, attraverso le teorie e i modelli offerti dalla psicologia del lavoro e delle organizzazioni, avendo come obiettivo quello di fare luce sulle dinamiche più propriamente lavorative che connotano questa particolare “forma” di cooperazione, portatrice di caratteristiche distintive. Se ogni caso è, per certi versi, unico poiché esito di una specifica combinazione di infinite diversità, attraverso le diverse esperienze è possibile riconoscere alcune dimensioni trasversali che possono sollecitare una più ampia riflessione sul tema della cooperazione allo sviluppo.

Relevant energy scale of color confinement from lattice QCD
Creators: name: Yamamoto, Arata

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We propose a new lattice framework to extract the relevant gluonic energy scale of QCD phenomena which is based on a "cut" on link variables in momentum space. This framework is expected to be broadly applicable to all lattice QCD calculations. Using this framework, we quantitatively determine the relevant energy scale of color confinement, through the analyses of the quark-antiquark potential and meson masses. The relevant energy scale of color confinement is found to be below 1.5 GeV in the Landau gauge. In fact, the string tension is almost unchanged even after cutting off the high-momentum gluon component above 1.5 GeV. When the relevant low-energy region is cut, the quark-antiquark potential is approximately reduced to a Coulomb-like potential, and each meson becomes a quasi-free quark pair. As an analytical model calculation, we also investigate the dependence of the Richardson potential on the cut, and find the consistent behavior with the lattice result.

description: The electronic transport properties of a series of LaAlO_3 / SrTiO_3 interfaces were investigated, and a systematic thickness dependence of the sheet resistance and magnetoresistance was found for constant growth conditions. This trend occurs above the critical thickness of four unit cells, below which the LaAlO_3 / SrTiO_3 interface is not conducting. A dramatic decrease in mobility of the electron gas of nearly two orders of magnitude was observed with increasing LaAlO_3 thickness from five to 25 unit cells.

subject: Teenage drivers

description: Research indicates that when completing in-vehicle tasks such as looking at a road map, teen drivers are much more likely than are experienced drivers to look away from the road for long periods. Other studies indicate that glances away from the road that last longer than 2 seconds increase crash risk. The combined findings suggest that teens have an elevated risk due to visual distraction. Simply training drivers never to look inside the vehicle could be unsafe because some tasks, such as glances at gauges and mirrors might actually serve to decrease crash risk. In addition, given the large number of devices in modern vehicles, e.g., radio/entertainment systems, and cellular phones, it would be naive to think that drivers could completely ignore distraction when driving. Training that teaches novice drivers to distribute their attention safely may be a useful countermeasure for crashes resulting from visual distraction. The current effort included three studies that developed and evaluated the Forward Concentration and Attention Learning (FOCAL) training program. The first study developed and tested the effectiveness of the FOCAL training program using a computer, while the second and third studies tested the impact of FOCAL on performance in real traffic and in a high-fidelity driving simulator.

description: (Abridged) We present the results of a new search for variable stars in the Local Group (LG) isolated dwarf galaxy IC1613, based on 24 orbits of F475W and F814W photometry from the ACS camera onboard the HST. We detected 259 candidate variables in this field, of which only 13 (all of them bright Cepheids) were previously known. Out of the confirmed variables, we found 90 RR Lyrae stars, 49 classical Cepheids (including 36 new discoveries), and 38 eclipsing binary stars for which we could determine a period. The RR Lyrae include 61 fundamental (RRab) and 24 first-overtone (RRc) pulsators, and 5 pulsating in both modes simultaneously (RRd). As for the majority of LG dwarfs, the mean periods of the RRab and RRc (0.611 and 0.334 day, respectively) as well as the fraction of overtone pulsators (f_c=0.28) place this galaxy in the intermediate regime between the Oosterhoff types. From their position on the period-luminosity diagram and light-curve morphology, we can unambiguously classify 25 and 14 Cepheids as fundamental and first-overtone mode pulsators, respectively. Another two are clearly second-overtone Cepheids, the first ones to be discovered beyond the Magellanic Clouds. We estimate the distance to IC1613 using various methods based on the photometric and pulsational properties of the Cepheids and RR Lyrae stars. The values we find are in very good agreement with each other and with previous estimates based on independent methods. When corrected to a common reddening of E(B-V)=0.025 and true LMC distance modulus of (m-M)_{LMC,0}=18.515+-0.085, we find that all the distance determinations from the literature converge to a common value of (m-M)_0=24.400+-0.014 (statistical), or 760 kpc.

The objective is to assess the impact of thispolicy on agricultural growth and competitiveness of regions, first in the aftermath ofthe fundamental reforms of the decoupling policy and second during the historiceastward enlargement of the EU, which deepened asymmetric spatial patterns andmay have led to the CAP having a different spatial impact. The analysis uses aneconometric approach based on an augmented Cobb-Douglas production function.The impact is proved to be mixed; positive when thechangeof subsidies with a 1-year lag is considered, which is related to farm strategies, and negative when thelevelof subsidies, which is based on reference data, is considered. In the case of the newmember states, the effect is negative, confirming the CAP’s incompatibility with theagricultural structures of the area.

description: The Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) directed Archaeological Consulting Services, Ltd. (ACS) to conduct archaeological monitoring at the Aravaipa Apache Burial Site (BOR-ARV98-l) during construction of the Aravaipa fish barrier for the Central Arizona Project. ACS also conducted a supplemental cultural resources survey near the site. A staging area associated with the fish barrier was constructed within the boundaries of BOR-ARV98-1, in a previously disturbed area that was devoid of features. A fence was installed to protect the cultural resources from possible impacts that might occur as a result of the construction. The monitoring was performed to ensure the fence installation would not disturb the surface cultural resources and to document any subsurface cultural remains that might be encountered during construction. The supplemental cultural resources survey encompassed less than one acre at two separate locations. Survey Area 1 was intended for Use Area #5 and upstream access road; Survey Area 2 was for the installation of a power pole to provide temporary power to the construction from an existing utility line. No cultural resources were encountered in the pole location area; two isolated occurrences were identified in Use Area #5.

description: When a State converts from secondary to primary seat belt enforcement, studies show increases of 10 percentage points or more in observed seat belt use. Primary enforcement laws allow an officer to ticket a motorist whenever they observe a seat belt offender. Under secondary enforcement, an officer must stop the vehicle for some other infraction first. While approval ratings of primary laws are high, issues of minority harassment, differential enforcement, racial profiling, or “driving while Black” still arise in discussions when States convert seat belt laws to primary enforcement status. A number of studies suggest that minorities perceive stricter law enforcement than Caucasians overall and were more likely to believe that they would be ticketed if unbelted. These studies showed no systematic differential enforcement in actual ticketing. Differential enforcement is clearly undesirable. One element that makes seat belt laws effective is the heightened perception that they are being strictly enforced. Primary laws motivate people to obey laws and convey the message that a State considers seat belts important to the safety of its citizens. NHTSA conducted a study to investigate changes before and after States switched to primary enforcement. Thirteen States upgraded seat belt laws to primary enforcement between 2000 and 2009.
Annihilation of positrons in argon
Creators: name: Orth, Paul Hans Robert
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The annihilation of positrons in Argon has been investigated as a function of Argon density and applied electric field using the technique of lifetime measurements. Lifetime spectra were analyzed using the maximum likelihood method of curve fitting. Results obtained at zero electric field yielded a linear dependence on density for the direct annihilation rate of (5.6 ± 0.1) x 10⁶sec⁻1 amagat⁻¹, with some evidence of non-linearity at densities greater than 10 amagats. The density dependence of the long-lived component of the time spectra indicated a zero density intercept of (7.2 ± 0.4) x 10⁻⁶sec⁻¹ in agreement with the theoretical value of the free orthopositronium annihilation rate (7-2. x 10⁶ sec⁻¹ ). In addition an orthopositronium quenching rate of (0.29 ± 0.04) x 10⁶ sec⁻¹ amagat⁻¹ was obtained from the linear dependence of the orthopositronium annihilation rate on density. The electric field dependence of the direct annihilation rate and orthopositronium formation have been measured and are used to provide an internally consistent picture of the behaviour of positrons in a gas under the influence of an applied electric field. Furthermore, these results have been compared with theoretical results for the direct annihilation rate obtained from one parameter representations of the effective positron-Argon atom interaction. It is shown that, while such potentials are successful in describing the low-energy elastic-scattering of electrons from noble gas atoms, they are inadequate for the case of positrons. However, consideration of the way in which the direct annihilation rate changes as a function of electric field leads to an upper limit of 15π₀² for the momentum-transfer cross-section for positrons in Argon at thermal energies. Such an estimate is shown to be independent of any assumption concerning the effective positron-Argon atom interaction.

description: Teen drivers have the highest crash rate per mile driven of any age group (Williams, Ferguson, & Wells, 2005). Immaturity and inexperience are two explanations for why novice teen drivers have such a high crash risk (Arnett, 1992; Mayhew, Simpson, & Pak, 2003; McCartt, Mayhew, & Ferguson, 2006). Immaturity includes the heightened risk-taking behaviorteens exhibit. Lack of experience has been linked to crashes regardless of the age at which driving starts. High crash risk by teens can be accounted for both by immaturity and inexperience acting simultaneously. Both explanations can account for the higher teen crash risks at night, due to speed, with passengers, and on slippery roads, for example. Immaturity can lead teens to speed, drive recklessly in high-risk situations, and to succumb to peer pressure. Inexperience can be especially problematic in difficult driving situations and when there are a greater number of distractions. Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) systems have been shown to be effective in reducing the high crash rates among teen drivers. GDL systems gradually introduce teen drivers to more risky driving situations over time. GDL components usually include a learner’s permit during which driving is allowed only with a parent or instructor, nighttime restrictions that limit late night driving, limitations on the number of passengers teens may carry, a specified period of unsupervised driving without crashes or violations (intermediate license), and prohibition of use of any electronic device while driving.

description: We analyze two different confining mechanisms for Lévy flights in the presence of external potentials. One of them is due to a conservative force in the corresponding Langevin equation. Another is implemented by Levy-Schroedinger semigroups which induce so-called topological Levy processes (Levy flights with locally modified jump rates in the master equation). Given a stationary probability function (pdf) associated with the Langevin-based fractional Fokker-Planck equation, we demonstrate that generically there exists a topological Lévy process with the very same invariant pdf and in the reverse.

description: The focus of the panel relates to the use of the Information and Communication Technologies for Development and social inclusion, a topic that has been recognized as a priority both on national and international levels, as inferred by the guidelines of European programs such as Horizon2020 (2014-2020) or from the Call 'Smart cities and Social Innovation' (MIUR, Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research). 'Social Innovation' is to be included as a part of the field of research and work of ICT4D (Information and Communication Technologies for Development) which, in fact, refers to the use of information and communication technologies in the field of international, socio-economic development and human rights. Possible implementations of ICT4D, between which it is intended to be done a comparison, concern, on one hand the methods and techniques of participation of the local community in identifying problems and resources and on the other hand the use and the integration of data collected in a relation with the database and the planning tools used by administrators and policy makers, as a basis for future interventions. The use of ICTs technology platforms such as websites, wikis, interactive geographic maps and SMS have an important role in increasing the accountability of the public administration. Accountability is connected to the ability to respond and to clearly report the activities carried out. As an aspect of governance, this responsibility has been in the past and must be now and in the future a main topic of discussions when concerning about issues related to the public, non-profit and private sectors.

description: The legacy of research on increasing seat belt use has focused on enactment of seat belt legislation, public education, high-visibility police enforcement, and seat belt reminder systems. Several behavioral programs have produced large, sustained increases in seat belt use, and several of these techniques have been employed on a communitywide basis to increase seat belt use. Innovative technologies may add to the success realized by the high-visibility enforcement model and elevate the seat belt use rate further. In the present study reviewed in this edition of "Traffic Tech", researchers tested an innovative technology that uses haptic feedback to increase seat belt use. This system imposes an increased resistance to the accelerator pedal when the driver is unbuckled and a predetermined speed is exceeded. This concept offers several potential advantages over other technologies. First, the system would not affect drivers who always buckle but do so after motion, nor would it affect drivers who do not buckle in very low-risk situations such as backing a vehicle to a loading dock. Second, because driving at the chosen speed in a comfortable manner should be a powerful reinforcer, the device should produce a rapid and sustained increase in seat belt use to 100%. Third, this system remains in effect until drivers fasten their seat belts. Finally, the system is consistently applied by the vehicle and does not require anyone to monitor driver seat belt use and apply consequences for not wearing the seat belt. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of this device on seat belt use and driver acceptance of the device.

description: In order to discover new X-ray transients, the data taken by XMM-Newton as it slews between targets are being processed and cross-correlated with other X-ray observations. A bright source, XMMSL1 J060636.2-694933, was detected on 18 July 2006 at a position where no previous X-ray source had been seen. The XMM-Newton slew data, plus follow-up dedicated XMM-Newton and Swift observations, plus optical data acquired with the Magellan Clay telescope, and archival All-Sky Automated Survey (ASAS) data were used to classify the new object, and to investigate its properties. No XMM-Newton slew X-ray counts are detected above 1 keV and the source is seen to be over five hundred times brighter than the ROSAT All-Sky Survey upper limit at that position. The line-rich optical spectrum acquired with the Magellan telescope allows the object to be classified as an Ao auroral phase nova, and the soft X-ray spectrum indicates that the nova was in a super-soft source state in the X-ray decline seen in the follow-up X-ray observations. The archival ASAS data suggests that the nova at onset (Oct 2005) was a 'very fast' nova, and an estimate of its distance is consistent with the nova being situated within the LMC. With the discovery presented here of a new classical nova in the LMC, it is clear that XMM-Newton slew data are continuing to offer a powerful opportunity to find new X-ray transient objects.

Analyses of antimony spectra.

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The arc and spark spectra of antimony have been photographed in the region from λ 400 Å to λ 9000 Å. Out of the approximately 5000 lines measured, one thousand five hundred and fifty eight lines have been classified as transitions between three hundred and seventy eight established levels in the spectra of SbI, SbII, SbIII, SbIV and SbV. The transformation theory of atomic spectra has been applied in detail to all the simple configuration encountered in the analyses. The Slater parameters and Landé interval factors have been calculated from the observed values of the energy levels of the configurations. The standard deviation between calculated and observed energy levels is generally about two or three percent of the configuration width. The theory of inter-configuration perturbation has been applied successfully to analyse the levels of the SbIV configuration,where 5p² and 5s5d mutually perturb and also the levels of SbIII where a perturbation occurs between 5s5p² and 5s²5d. It was generally observed that the Landé interval factors increase as the energies of parent configurations increase, while the Slater parameters remain rather constant. This relative change implies that the coupling scheme tends to the (jj) extreme in more highly excited ions and in members with higher principal quantum numbers in a Rydberg series. It is also observed that as the nuclear change increases, the coupling scheme tends to be more jj.

description: In a previous paper we studied the double scaling limit of unitary random matrix ensembles of the form Z_{n,N}^{-1} |\det M|^{2α} e^{-N \Tr V(M)} dM with α> -1/2. The factor |\det M|^{2α} induces critical eigenvalue behavior near the origin. Under the assumption that the limiting mean eigenvalue density associated with V is regular, and that the origin is a right endpoint of its support, we computed the limiting eigenvalue correlation kernel in the double scaling limit as n, N \to \infty such that n^{2/3}(n/N-1) = O(1) by using the Deift-Zhou steepest descent method for the Riemann-Hilbert problem for polynomials on the line orthogonal with respect to the weight |x|^{2α} e^{-NV(x)}. Our main attention was on the construction of a local parametrix near the origin by means of the ψ-functions associated with a distinguished solution u_α of the Painleve XXXIV equation. This solution is related to a particular solution of the Painleve II equation, which however is different from the usual Hastings-McLeod solution. In this paper we compute the asymptotic behavior of u_α(s) as s \to \pm \infty. We conjecture that this asymptotics characterizes u_α and we present supporting arguments based on the asymptotic analysis of a one-parameter family of solutions of the Painleve XXXIV equation which includes u_α. We identify this family as the family of tronquee solutions of the thirty fourth Painleve equation.

description: Many repeat driving-under-the-influence offenders have serious alcohol problems that make it difficult to curb their drinking and driving behaviors. About one-third of all drivers arrested or convicted of driving while intoxicated or driving under the influence (DWI/DUI) of alcohol are repeat offenders. Following the model of drug courts, DUI courts are designed to address the underlying alcohol problems of repeat DUI offenders. Drug courts take a rehabilitative approach to justice, which usually applies to nonviolent, addicted offenders. The Drug Court Model involves the coordination of the judiciary, prosecution, probation, defense bar, law enforcement, social services, mental health, and the treatment community to intervene with chronic offenders to break the cycle of substance abuse, addiction, and criminal activity. In 2003, under a cooperative agreement, NHTSA assisted the Georgia Administrative Office of the Courts (GAOC) to establish three specialized DUI courts to treat and manage cases of offenders convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol on multiple occasions. All three DUI courts (Hall County/Gainesville, Clarke County/ Athens, and Chatham County/Savannah) operate independently while following a uniform process coordinated by the GAOC.
