description: We have obtained wide field images of the Coma cluster in the B, V, R and I bands with the CFH12K camera at CFHT. In order to search for large scale diffuse emission, we have applied to these images an iterative multi scale wavelet analysis and reconstruction technique which allowed to model all the sources (stars and galaxies) and subtract them from the original images. We found various concentrations of diffuse emission present in the central zone around the central galaxies NGC4874 and NGC4889. We characterize the positions, sizes and colors of these concentrations. Some sources do not seem to have strong star formation, while another one probably exhibits spiral-like color. One possible origin for the star forming diffuse emission sources is that in the region of the two main galaxies NGC4874 and NGC4889 spiral galaxies have recently been disrupted and star formation is still active in the dispersed material. We also use the characteristics of the sources of diffuse emission to trace the cluster dynamics. A scenario in which the group around NGC 4874 is moving north is consistent with our data.

description: Extensive studies have been done to understand the principles behind architectures of real networks. Recently, evidences for hierarchical organization in many real networks have also been reported. Here, we present a new hierarchical model which reproduces the main experimental properties observed in real networks: scale-free of degree distribution $P(k)$ (frequency of the nodes that are connected to $k$ other nodes decays as a power-law $P(k)\sim k^{-γ}$) and power-law scaling of the clustering coefficient $C(k)\sim k^{-1}$. The major novelties of our model can be summarized as follows: {\it (a)} The model generates networks with scale-free distribution for the degree of nodes with general exponent $γ> 2$, and arbitrarily close to any specified value, being able to reproduce most of the observed hierarchical scale-free topologies. In contrast, previous models can not obtain values of $γ> 2.58$. {\it (b)} Our model has structural flexibility because {\it (i)} it can incorporate various types of basic building blocks (e.g., triangles, tetrahedrons and, in general, fully connected clusters of $n$ nodes) and {\it (ii)} it allows a large variety of configurations (i.e., the model can use more than $n-1$ copies of basic blocks of $n$ nodes). The structural features of our proposed model might lead to a better understanding of architectures of biological and non-biological networks.

Anatomy of Higgs decays into $γγ$ and $γZ$ within the EChL in the $R_ξ$ gauges

description: In this work we study the Higgs boson decays into two photons and into one photon and one $Z$ gauge boson within the context of the non-linear Effective Field Theory called the Electroweak Chiral Lagrangian. We present a detailed computation of the corresponding amplitudes to one-loop level in the covariant $R_ξ$ gauges. We assume that the fermionic loop contributions are as in the Standard Model and focus here just in the computation of the bosonic loop contributions. Our renormalization program and the anatomy of the various contributions participating in the $R_ξ$ gauges are fully explored. With this present computation we demonstrate the gauge invariance of the EChL result, not only for the case of on-shell Higgs boson, but also for the most general and interesting case of off-shell Higgs boson. We finally analyse and conclude on the special relevance of the Goldstone boson loops, in good agreement with the expected chiral loops behaviour in Chiral Lagrangians. We perform a systematic comparison with the corresponding computation of the Standard Model in the $R_ξ$ gauges and with the previous EChL results in the unitary gauge. This work represents the first computation within the EChL of these Higgs observables to one-loop in the most general $R_ξ$ gauges and with a full renormalization program description, not yet fully explored in the previous literature and which is different to the most frequently used in the linear Effective Field Theory (SMEFT).

description: Let $X$ be a four-dimensional projective variety defined over the field of complex numbers with only terminal singularities. We prove that if the intersection number of the canonical divisor $K$ with every very general curve is positive ($K$ is almost numerically positive) then every very general proper subvariety of $X$ is of general type in the viewpoint of geometric Kodaira dimension. We note that the converse does not hold for simple abelian varieties.

description: We study a zero range process on scale-free networks in order to investigate how network structure influences particle dynamics. The zero range process is defined with the particle jumping rate function $p(n)=n^δ$. We show analytically that a complete condensation occurs when $δ\leq δ_c \equiv 1/(γ-1)$ where $γ$ is the degree distribution exponent of the underlying networks. In the complete condensation, those nodes whose degree is higher than a threshold are occupied by macroscopic numbers of particles, while the other nodes are occupied by negligible numbers of particles. We also show numerically that the relaxation time follows a power-law scaling $τ\sim L^z$ with the network size $L$ and a dynamic exponent $z$ in the condensed phase.

title: Designing Activities for Collaboration at Classroom Scale Using Shared Technology
Creators: name: Kreitmayer, Stefan
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2015

description: Although researchers, teachers and policy makers broadly agree on the benefits of collaborative learning, there appears to be less clarity regarding how effective collaboration can be realised at classroom scale. Research in Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL), Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), simulation-based learning and related fields has produced a considerable range of applications that aim to support collaboration in classrooms. Grounded in well-established theories of how humans learn, many such applications have shown promising results within the context of small research studies. However, most of those research-driven applications never matured beyond the prototype stage and few are available today as products that schools can easily use and adopt. Many systems lack flexibility or require too much time, hardware, technical skills or other resources to be effectively implemented. Furthermore, teachers can be overwhelmed by managing large groups of students engaged in complex, computer-supported tasks. This thesis investigates how forms of whole-classroom activity can be supported by combining shareable technologies with simulation, team play and orchestration. New designs are explored to help large groups engage and discuss at multiple scales (from pairs and small groups to the entire classroom) in ways that effectively include each student and use the teacher's limited resources efficiently. Moreover, this research aims to devise and validate a conceptual framework that can guide future design, orchestration and evaluation of such activities. Three in-situ studies were conducted to address these goals. The first study involved the design of a climate change simulation to support a professional training course. Iterative design and video analysis resulted in the formulation of the Collaborative Learning Orchestration for Verbal Engagement and Reflection (CLOVER) framework. This framework comprises a suite of conceptual tools and recommendations that aim to help designers and teachers create, orchestrate and evaluate decision-based simulations for whole-classroom use. Two follow-up studies were conducted to validate the usability and usefulness of CLOVER. One of them aimed to replicate the previous findings in a similar context and resulted in the design of a sustainable, whole-classroom simulation for students to discuss finance decisions. The other used CLOVER to expand an existing desktop application (a~language comprehension task for children) to classroom scale. In sum, the three studies provide substantial empirical evidence, suggesting that CLOVER-based applications can effectively reconcile learning needs (collaboration) and technological affordances (shareable devices) with the inherent benefits and constraints of teacher-driven, co-located environments. Furthermore, the findings contribute to a better understanding of what it means to design for sustainability in this context.
X-rays observations of a super-Chandrasekhar object reveal an ONeMg and a CO white dwarf merger product embedded in a putative SN Iax remnant

description: The merger of two white dwarfs (WD) is a natural outcome from the evolution of many binary stars. Recently, a WD merger product, IRAS 00500+6713, was identified. IRAS 00500+6713 consists of a central star embedded in a circular nebula. The analysis of the optical spectrum of the central star revealed that it is hot, hydrogen and helium free, and drives an extremely fast wind with a record breaking speed. The nebula is visible in infrared and in the [O III] line images. No nebula spectroscopy was obtained prior to our observations. Here we report the first deep X-ray imaging spectroscopic observations of IRAS 00500+6713. Both the central star and the nebula are detected in X-rays, heralding the WD merger products as a new distinct type of strong X-ray sources. Low-resolution X-ray spectra reveal large neon, magnesium, silicon, and sulfur enrichment of the central star and the nebula. We conclude that IRAS 00500+6713 resulted from a merger of an ONe and a CO WD, which supports earlier suggestion for a super-Chandrasekhar mass of this object. X-ray analysis indicates that the merger was associated with an episode of carbon burning and possibly accompanied by a SN Iax. In X-rays, we observe the point source associated with the merger product while the surrounding diffuse nebula is a supernova remnant. IRAS 00500+6713 will likely terminate its evolution with another peculiar Type I supernova, where the final core collapse to a neutron star might be induced by electron captures.

Fitness consequences of group living and the loss of dispersal in spiders
Creators: name: Salazar, Patricio Alejandro
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The evolutionary transition from solitary to group living in spiders implies the progressive loss of natal dispersal behaviour. This process is likely mediated by the fitness consequences of two interrelated factors: the "choice" that individuals make to stay or disperse from their natal group and, as a result of this, the group size they experience at different life stages. In this study I investigated the consequences of these factors in three components of female lifetime reproductive success in the social spider Anelosimus guacamayos (Araneae: Theridiidae). By regularly recording changes in spider counts and nest proliferation events in a total sample of 105 naturally occurring colonies, my collaborators and I found: (1) an overall higher survival probability for philopatric females relative to emigrants, (2) some survival improvement related to group size for philopatric females living in colonies smaller than ~20 individuals, and (3) an increase in the offspring survival probability, mainly associated with group size rather than being merely related with philopatry or dispersal. We found no effect of either dispersal or group size on the probability of female reproduction. Despite the fitness costs of dispersal, its occurrence in group living spiders, such as A. guacamayos, is best explained by the negative density-dependent effects of group living. On the other hand, the rapid improvement in offspring survival is a straight forward explanation for the evolution of group living because it does not require active cooperation between the spiders staying in their natal nest. Because mother spiders sometimes die before their offspring are self-sufficient, the first benefit of group living is most likely a geometric decrease for each adult that is added to the group in the chances of ending up in a nest with dependent offspring but no adults.

description: In the braneworld scenario, the four dimensional effective Einstein equation has extra terms which arise from the embedding of the 3-brane in the bulk. We show that in this modified theory of gravity, it is possible to model observations of galaxy rotation curves and the X-ray profiles of clusters of galaxies, without the need for dark matter. In this scenario, a traceless tensor field which arises from the projection of the bulk Weyl tensor on the brane, provides the extra gravitational acceleration which is usually explained through dark matter. We also predict that gravitational lensing observations can possibly discriminate between the proposed higher dimensional effects and dark matter, the deflection angles predicted in the proposed scenario being around 75% to 80% of the usual predictions based on dark matter.

description: PSR B1508+55 is known to have a single component profile above 300 MHz. However, when we study it at frequencies below 100 MHz using the first station of the Long Wavelength Array, it shows multiple components. These include the main pulse, a precursor, a postcursor, and a trailing component. The separation of the trailing component from the main peak evolves over the course of a three year study. This evolution is likely an effect of the pulse signal getting refracted off an ionized gas cloud (acting as a lens) leading to what appears to be a trailing component in the profile as the pulsar signal traverses the interstellar medium. Using this interpretation, we identify the location and electron density of the lens affecting the pulse profile.

description: We identified latent periodicity in catalytic domains of approximately 85% of serine/threonine and tyrosine protein kinases. Similar results were obtained for other 22 protein domains. We also designed the method of noise decomposition, which is aimed to distinguish between different periodicity types of the same period length. The method is to be used in conjunction with the cyclic profile alignment, and this combination is able to reveal structure-related or function-related patterns of latent periodicity. Possible origins of the periodic structure of protein kinase active sites are discussed. Summarizing, we presume that latent periodicity is the common property of many catalytic protein domains.

The relationship of breastfeeding to mental and motor development in children under two years of age
Creators: name: Petryk, Andrea L.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Occupational therapists are involved also in the rehabilitation of infants with feeding difficulties in a variety of health care and community settings. Breastfeeding involves the occupational performance of a mother-child dyad within a physical, social, economic and cultural environment and, for many mothers, constitutes the primary occupation of motherhood for the greater part of the child’s first year. Based on numerous known child health, maternal health, and community benefits of breastfeeding, the AAP (2005) and the World Health Organization (WHO, 2004) recommended exclusive breastfeeding of infants for 6 months and breastfeeding with introduction of solid foods thereafter, with no upper limit on duration. The existing literature on the relationship of breastfeeding and neurodevelopment is explored, including behavioral, physiological, and genetic explanatory theories. In particular, motor development, visual acuity, educational achievement, and psychosocial adaptation are examined as neuro-developmental outcomes. Significant and widespread methodological limitations in the available research are then discussed. Subsequently, we report on an observational study of the relationship of exclusive and partial breastfeeding duration to mental and motor development as measured by the Mental Development Index (MDI) and Psychomotor Development Index (PDI) of the Bayley Scales of Infant Development, Revised (Bayley, 1993). Because breastfeeding mothers are typically older, more educated, with higher family income and more social support, numerous possible confounding variables (covariates) were examined along with breastfeeding for their effect on child development. Data collection, occurring in Phase II, a retrospective survey of participants in a previous study, and Phase II, a prospective recruitment of volunteer from community organizations, yielded 80 mother-child dyads. Differences between Phase I and II groups were not considered to affect results. Correlation coefficients (r) for the relationships between exclusive or partial breastfeeding and MDI or PDI were not significant and very weak (r = 0.14 to 0.21). None of the covariates studied confounded to relationship between breastfeeding and MDI or PDI. Therefore, this study does not support the existence of a dose-response relationship between breastfeeding duration and mental or motor development.

description: In the metric approach of $f(R)$ theories of gravity, the fourth-order field equations are often recast as effective Einstein equations in the presence of standard matter and a curvature fluid (which gathers all the extra terms), always in the Jordan frame. In this picture, we investigate the strong gravity regime of the $f(R) = R+ αR^2$ model. In particular, we focus on the stability of a compact star composed by a mixture of ordinary matter -- described by a polytropic equation of state -- and an effective curvature fluid in an otherwise standard Einstein gravity, so that we are able to apply the usual equations that govern the radial adiabatic oscillations of relativistic stars. Our new restriction on the free parameter is $α\lesssim 2.4 \times 10^8\ \text{cm}^2$ in order to guarantee stellar stability, about $100$ times more restrictive than previous results (based on mass-radius relations alone) in the literature.

description: We study the relationship between the mid-IR (5-18 $μ$m) emission of late-type galaxies and various other star formation tracers in order to investigate the nature of the dust heating sources in this spectral domain. The analysis is carried out using a sample of 123 normal, late-type, nearby galaxies with available data at several frequencies. The mid-IR luminosity (normalized to the H-band luminosity) correlates better with the far-IR luminosity than with more direct tracers of the young stellar population such as the H$α$ and the UV luminosity. The comparison of resolved images reveals a remarkable similarity in the H$α$ and mid-IR morphologies, with prominent HII regions at both frequencies. The mid-IR images, however, show in addition a diffuse emission not associated with HII regions nor with the diffuse H$α$ emission. This evidence indicates that the stellar population responsible for the heating of dust emitting in the mid-IR is similar to that heating big grains emitting in the far-IR, including relatively evolved stars responsible for the non-ionizing radiation. The scatter in the mid-IR vs. H$α$, UV and far-IR luminosity relation is mostly due to metallicity effects, with metal-poor objects having a lower mid-IR emission per unit star formation rate than metal-rich galaxies. Our analysis indicates that the mid-IR luminosity is not an optimal star formation tracer in normal, late-type galaxies.

title: On The Growth Of Permutation Classes
Creators: name: Bevan, David Ian
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2015

description: We study aspects of the enumeration of permutation classes, sets of permutations closed downwards under the subpermutation order. First, we consider monotone grid classes of permutations. We present procedures for calculating the generating function of any class whose matrix has dimensions m × 1 for some m, and of acyclic and unicyclic classes of gridded permutations. We show that almost all large permutations in a grid class have the same shape, and determine this limit shape. We prove that the growth rate of a grid class is given by the square of the spectral radius of an associated graph and deduce some facts relating to the set of grid class growth rates. In the process, we establish a new result concerning tours on graphs. We also prove a similar result relating the growth rate of a geometric grid class to the matching polynomial of a graph, and determine the effect of edge subdivision on the matching polynomial. We characterise the growth rates of geometric grid classes in terms of the spectral radii of trees. We then investigate the set of growth rates of permutation classes and establish a new upper bound on the value above which every real number is the growth rate of some permutation class. In the process, we prove new results concerning expansions of real numbers in non-integer bases in which the digits are drawn from sets of allowed values. Finally, we introduce a new enumeration technique, based on associating a graph with each permutation, and determine the generating functions for some previously unenumerated classes. We conclude by using this approach to provide an improved lower bound on the growth rate of the class of permutations avoiding the pattern 1324. In the process, we prove that, asymptotically, patterns in Łukasiewicz paths exhibit a concentrated Gaussian distribution.

description: We analyze theoretically 4-terminal electronic devices composed of two crossed graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) and show that they can function as beam splitters or mirrors. These features are identified for electrons in the low-energy region where a single valence or conduction band is present. Our modeling is based on $p_z$ orbital tight-binding with Slater--Koster type matrix elements fitted to accurately reproduce the low-energy bands from density functional theory calculations. We analyze systematically all devices that can be constructed with either zigzag or armchair GNRs in AA and AB stackings. From Green's function theory the elastic electron transport properties are quantified as a function of the ribbon width. We find that devices composed of relatively narrow zigzag GNRs and AA-stacked armchair GNRs are the most interesting candidates to realize electron beam splitters with a close to 50-50 ratio in the two outgoing terminals. Structures with wider ribbons instead provide electron mirrors, where the electron wave is mostly transferred into the outgoing terminal of the other ribbon, or electron filters where the scattering depends sensitively on the wavelength of the propagating electron. We also test the robustness of these transport properties against variations in intersection angle, stacking pattern, lattice deformation (uniaxial strain), inter-GNR separation, and electrostatic potential differences between the layers. These generic features show that GNRs are interesting basic components to construct electronic quantum optical setups.

description: Chiral solitons coupled with quarks in medium are studied based on the Wigner-Seitz approximation. The chiral quark soliton model is used to obtain the classical soliton solutions. To investigate nucleon and $Δ$ in matter, the semi-classical quantization is performed by the cranking method. The saturation for nucleon matter and $Δ$ matter are observed.

description: In this paper we have analyzed the improved version of the Gauge Unfixing (GU) formalism of the massive Carroll-Field-Jackiw model, which breaks both the Lorentz and gauge invariances, to disclose hidden symmetries to obtain gauge invariance, the key stone of the Standard Model. In this process, as usual, we have converted this second-class system into a first-class one and we have obtained two gauge invariant models. We have verified that the Poisson brackets involving the gauge invariant variables, obtained through the GU formalism, coincide with the Dirac brackets between the original second-class variables of the phase space. Finally, we have obtained two gauge invariant Lagrangians where one of them represents the Stueckelberg form.

description: La producción integrada trata de conjugar objetivos tan dispares como la protección del medio ambiente y la rentabilidad de las explotaciones. Por su evidente interés público, dicho método de producción agraria es objeto de una importante actividad administrativa de fomento que, en España, se ha traducido en el establecimiento de diversos signos destinados a distinguir en el mercado los productos derivados de ese método de producción y en el otorgamiento de ayudas públicas para apoyar y promover esta actividad agraria. En este trabajo no sólo se ofrece una descripción general del régimen jurídico aplicable a esa actividad pública de fomento sino que se sugieren también algunas soluciones a los problemas que en él se plantean. The integrated production tries to unite aims so different as the protection of the environment and the profitability of the exploitation. Because of its evident public interest, the above mentioned method of agrarian production is object of an important administrative activity of promotion that, in Spain, has meant, on the one hand, the establishment of diverse signs destined to distinguish on the market the products derived from that method of production and, on the other hand, the grant of public helps to support and to promote this agrarian activity. In this work is not only offered a general description of the juridical regime applicable to this public activity of promotion, but some solutions are suggested also for the problems that in it appear.

description: We present the discovery of an L0 companion to the nearby M1.5 dwarf G 239-25, at a projected distance of 31 AU. It is the faintest companion discovered so far in our adaptive optics survey of all known M dwarfs within 12 pc, and it lies at the stellar/substellar limit. Given the assumed age of the primary star, the companion is likely an extremely low mass star. The long orbital period of G 239-25 AB ($\approx 100$ years) precludes a direct mass determination, but the relatively wide angular separation will allow detailed analyses of its near infrared and visible spectra.

title: A domain-independent model of suspense in narrative
Creators: name: Doust, R.A.
Publisher: name: The Open University

description: Many computational models of narrative have focussed on the structure of the narrative world. Such models have been implemented in a wide variety of systems, often linked to characters’ goals and plans, where the goal of creating suspenseful stories is baked into the structure of each system. There is no portable, independently motivated idea of what makes a suspenseful story. Our approach is instead to take the phenomenon of suspense as the starting point. We extend an existing psychological model of narrative by Brewer and Lichtenstein (1982) which postulates suspense, curiosity and surprise as the fundamental elements of entertaining stories. We build a formal model of these phenomena using structures we call narrative threads. Narrative threads are a formal description of a reader’s expectations about what might happen next in a given story. Our model uses a measure for the imminence of the predicted conflict between narrative threads to create a suspense profile for a given story. We also identify two types of suspense: conflict-based and revelatory suspense. We tested the validity of our model by asking participants to give step- by-step self-reported suspense levels on reading online story variants. The results show that the normalised average scores of participants (N = 46) are in agreement with the values predicted by our model to a high level of statistical significance. Our model’s interface with storyworld knowledge is compatible with recent developments in automatic harvesting of world knowledge in the form of event chains such as Chambers and Jurafsky (2008). This means that it is in principle scalable. By disentangling suspense from specific narrative content and planning strategies, we arrive at a domain-independent model that can be reused within different narrative generation systems. We see our work as a signpost to encourage the further development of narrative models based on what we see as its fundamental ingredients.
The French Revolution and German industrialization: The new institutional economics rewrites history

description: Our purpose here is to challenge the "big-bang" approach to economic history in which some alleged institutional imposition - a deus machine - is claimed to launch a series of new economic behaviors. This so-called prime mover is then carried forward by the inexorable forces of path dependency to change the course of history. The specific creation story under investigation here is the French Revolution and the subsequent Napoleonic conquest of parts of Germany. We show that recent efforts to re-write German economic history using this theoretical model cannot be supported by the abundant and concerted empirical evidence.
Farm-size-specific technical efficiency: A stochastic frontier analysis for rice growers in Bangladesh

description: The study was conducted during 2008-2009 to estimate the farm-size-specific technical efficiency of rice growers. The technical efficiency scores were estimated using stochastic production frontiers. The large farms received the highest yield (4772.83 kg) per hectare while marginal farms received the lowest yield (4610.53 kg). Gross return was found to be the highest for small farms and net return was the highest for marginal farms. The marginal farm experienced the highest benefit-cost ratio (BCR) followed by small, medium and large farm respectively. The average technical efficiency for large, medium, small, marginal and all farms were respectively 0.88, 0.92, 0.94, 0.75 and 0.88. There was significant technical inefficiency in the production of rice for marginal farms indicating that production could be increased by increasing efficiency with the existing technology for marginal farms. Farm management could help in increasing production in marginal farms. For other farms,increased managerial capacity was not enough for increasing production. New investment and advanced technology were needed to increase production in these farms. Farmers could increase 12 percent output with application of inputs and production technology at the aggregate level. The costs of fertiliser, manure, irrigation, insecticide and area and experience were important factors to increase production. Age, education and family size had negative impact on technical inefficiency whereas land had positive impact on technical inefficiency.
