description: Adverbs and adverbial clauses have received little attention from Japanese linguists to date. In this paper, three adverbial clauses, TAME NI, NO NI, and YOO NI, denoting 'purpose' are examined. Presented in most Japanese textbooks for beginners, these expressions are a source of considerable confusion for students, due to considerable similarity in their meaning and in the contexts in which they appear. The paper first presents an overview of TAME NI and NO NI constructions and discusses their difference in meaning. It reveals that Purpose TAME NI focuses on the goal of the action described and Purpose NO NI on the manner or process involved. The sequential relation between the purposive and the main clause is the crucial factor of Purpose TAME NI construction. It is suggested that, unlike the NI of Purpose TAME NI which indicates the goal, the particle NI of Purpose NO NI indicates the co-temporal relationship between the subordinate and the main clause. NI points to the occasion on which the event described in the main clause occurs. The NI of YOO NI indicates the goal, as does the NI of TAME NI. However, the difference lies in the attitude of the subject toward the purpose. With TAME NI, the subject tries to achieve the purpose through his own effort, whereas YOO NI indicates more of a di sire or wish on the part of the subject of the main clause (Kitagawa (1972), Kunihiro (1982)).

description: The onset of condensation of hard spheres in a gravitational field is studied using density functional theory. In particular, we find that the local density approximation yields results identical to those obtained previously using the kinetic theory [Physica A 271, 192, (1999)], and a weighted density functional theory gives qualitatively similar results, namely, that the temperature at which condensation begins at the bottom scales linearly with weight, diameter, and number of layers of particles.

description: The Djinang language is the western-most member o-f the "Yolngu" language group. It is spoken by approximately 250 Aboriginal people living in the vicinity of Ramingining, a settlement on the mainland about 20 kilometres south of the Crocodile Islands. Most Djinang speakers live either a t Ramingining» or a t one of several o u tstatio n s, all of which lie within about 30 kilometres of Ramingining. A few Djinang speakers live at Maningrida, and at Milingimbi; and a few women have married men who reside on Elcho Island» and live there with th eir husbands. Djinang is not mutually intelligible with any of the other Yolngu languages or dialects.

description: We proposed a novel visual stimulus for brain-computer interface. The stimulus is in the form gaiting sequence of a human. The hypothesis is that observing such a visual stimulus would simultaneously induce 1) steady-state motion visual evoked potential (SSMVEP) in the occipital area, similarly to an SSVEP stimulus; and 2) sensorimotor rhythm (SMR) in the primary sensorimotor area, because such action observation (AO) could activate the mirror neuron system. Canonical correlation analysis (CCA) was used to detect SSMVEP from occipital EEG, and event-related spectral perturbations (ERSP) were used to identify SMR in the EEG from the sensorimotor area. The results showed that the proposed visual gaiting stimulus-induced SSMVEP, with classification accuracies of 88.9 $\pm$ 12.0% in a four-class scenario. More importantly, it induced clear and sustained event-related desynchronization/synchronization (ERD/ERS) in the EEG from the sensorimotor area, while no ERD/ERS in the sensorimotor area could be observed when the other two SSVEP stimuli were used. Further, for participants with sufficiently clear SSMVEP pattern (classification accuracy > 85%), the ERD index values in mu-beta band induced by the proposed gaiting stimulus were statistically different from that of the other two types of stimulus. Therefore, a novel BCI based on the proposed stimulus has potential in neurorehabilitation applications because it simultaneously has the high accuracy of an SSMVEP (~90% accuracy in a four-class setup) and the ability to activate sensorimotor cortex. And such potential will be further explored in future studies.

description: The dynamics of a system quenched into a state with lamellar order and subject to an uniform shear flow is solved in the large-N limit. The description is based on the Brazovskii free-energy and the evolution follows a convection-diffusion equation. Lamellae order preferentially with the normal along the vorticity direction. Typical lengths grow as $γt^{5/4}$ (with logarithmic corrections) in the flow direction and logarithmically in the shear direction. Dynamical scaling holds in the two-dimensional case while it is violated in D=3.

description: Here we present new ALMA observations of polarized dust emission from six of the most massive clumps in W43-Main. The clumps MM2, MM3, MM4, MM6, MM7, and MM8, have been resolved into two populations of fragmented filaments. From these two populations we extracted 81 cores (96 with the MM1 cores) with masses between 0.9 \Msun\ to 425 \Msun\ and a mass sensitivity of 0.08 M$_{\odot}$. The MM6, MM7, and MM8 clumps show significant fragmentation, but the polarized intensity appears to be sparse and compact. The MM2, MM3, and MM4 population shows less fragmentation, but with a single proto-stellar core dominating the emission at each clump. Also, the polarized intensity is more extended and significantly stronger in this population. From the polarized emission, we derived detailed magnetic field patterns throughout the filaments which we used to estimate field strengths for 4 out of the 6 clumps. The average field strengths estimations were found between 500 $μ$G to 1.8 mG. Additionally, we detected and modeled infalling motions towards MM2 and MM3 from single dish HCO$^{+}(J=4 \rightarrow 3)$ and HCN$(J=4 \rightarrow 3)$ data resulting in mass infall rates of $\dot{\mathrm{M}}_{\mathrm{MM2}} = 1.2 \times 10^{-2}$ \Msun\ yr$^{-1}$ and $\dot{\mathrm{M}}_{\mathrm{MM3}} = 6.3 \times 10^{-3}$ \Msun\ yr$^{-1}$. By using our estimations, we evaluated the dynamical equilibrium of our cores by computing the total virial parameter $α_{\mathrm{total}}$. For the cores with reliable field estimations, we found that 71\% of them appear to be gravitationally bound while the remaining 29\% are not. We concluded that these unbound cores, also less massive, are still accreting and have not yet reached a critical mass. This also implies different evolutionary time-scales, which essentially suggests that star-formation in high mass filaments is not uniform.

description: In the current paper, we have developed an analytical apparatus, allowing to calculate the phase error, produced by miscalibration of modulation parameters. The case of harmonic modulation is considered, the analysis is performed for cases of two parameters miscalibration: amplitude and start phase. Two demodulation algorithms are considered: conventional 4-point algorithm, based on ordinary least squares approach and previously developed 4+1 algorithm with high immunity to phase error, induced by change of target phase on demodulation interval. Predictions, given by developed analytical equations are verified by means of numeric modeling.

description: Interest in functional time series has spiked in the recent past with papers covering both methodology and applications being published at a much increased pace. This article contributes to the research in this area by proposing a new stationarity test for functional time series based on frequency domain methods. The proposed test statistics is based on joint dimension reduction via functional principal components analysis across the spectral density operators at all Fourier frequencies, explicitly allowing for frequency-dependent levels of truncation to adapt to the dynamics of the underlying functional time series. The properties of the test are derived both under the null hypothesis of stationary functional time series and under the smooth alternative of locally stationary functional time series. The methodology is theoretically justiﬁed through asymptotic results. Evidence from simulation studies and an application to annual temperature curves suggests that the test works well in ﬁnite samples.

 Haliotrema tubocirrus Zhukov, 1976: 40, 41.
 MATERIAL EXAMINED. — Two voucher specimens from Lutjanus synagris, Gulf of Campeche (Gulf of Mexico) (USNPC 91431).
 PREVIOUS RECORDS. — Gills of Lutjanus analis, Lutjanus apodus, Lutjanus cyanopterus, Lutjanus synagris (type host), Rhomboplites aurorubens (Lutjanidae): Havana and Gulf of Campeche (Gulf of Mexico) (Zhukov 1976). According to Timofeeva (personal communication), the holotype of E. tubocirrus n. comb. was collected from L. synagris.
MEASUREMENTS
Copulatory organ ring diameter 28-29 (n = 1); accessory piece 27-28 (n = 1) long; ventral anchor 29 (28-31; n = 2) long, base 15-16 (n = 1) wide; dorsal anchor 31-32 (n = 2) long, base 15-16 (n = 1) wide; dorsal bar 33 (31-36; n = 2) long; hook 14-15 (n = 3) long.
REMARKS
 This species requires redescription. The two specimens from Zhukov’s collection, both damaged, flattened and cleared, were unsuitable for determination of internal features. The vaginal aperture is apparently dextroventral; the tube of the copulatory organ has a bulbous base and appears to be enclosed within a tissue sheath; the accessory piece is clavate and apparently not articulated to the bulbous base of the copulatory organ; the anchors have well-developed roots; and the hook has an upright acute thumb and slender shank composed of one subunit. Based on these observations, this species is transferred to Euryhaliotrema n. gen. as E. tubocirrus n. comb. Euryhaliotrema tubocirrus n. comb. is similar to E. torquecirrus n. comb. but differs from it in having a sheath surrounding the tube of the copulatory organ.

description: Brane world models with `large' extra dimensions with radii in the r_l ~ 0.01- 0.1 mm range and smaller ones at r_s < (1 TeV)^(-1) have the potential to solve the cosmic coincidence problem, i.e. the apparently fortuitous equality between dark matter and dark energy components today. The main ingredient is the assumption of a stabilization mechanism fixing the total volume of the compact submanifold, but allowing for shape deformations. The latter are associated with phenomenologically safe ultra-light scalar fields. Bulk fields Casimir energy naturally plays the role of dark energy, which decreases in time because of expanding r_l. Stable Kaluza Klein states may play the role of dark matter with increasing, O(1/r_s), mass. The cosmological equations exhibit attractor solutions in which the global equation of state is negative, the ratio between dark energy and dark matter is constant and the observed value of the ratio is obtained for two large extra dimensions. Experimental searches of large extra dimensions should take into account that, due to the strong coupling between dark matter and radii dynamics, the size of the large extra dimensions inside the galactic halo may be smaller than the average value.

description: In this article, we prove Herglotz’s theorem for Hilbert-valued time series. This requires the notion of an operator-valued measure, which we shall make precise for our setting. Herglotz’s theorem for functional time series allows to generalize existing results that are central to frequency domain analysis on the function space. In particular, we use this result to prove the existence of a functional Cramér representation of a large class of processes, including those with jumps in the spectral distribution and long-memory processes. We furthermore obtain an optimal ﬁnite dimensional reduction of the time series under weaker assumptions than available in the literature. The results of this paper therefore enable Fourier analysis for processes of which the spectral density operator does not necessarily exist.

description: To English speakers the distinction between the uses of the Japanese particles, "WA" and "GA", is one of the most difficult problems in learning Japanese, and this is particularly true in the case where "WA" and "GA" marks the NP which is equivalent to the subject in English. This usage of "WA" and "GA" is also extremely problematic for instructors in teaching Japanese to students whose native language is English. The present sub-thesis firstly introduces the major theories concerning the two particles, "WA" and "GA", advanced by several linguists. Secondly, on the basis of these theories, a critical survey of several Japanese textbooks is presented, which examines how the two particles are introduced in these textbooks, when they are used to mark the NP which is equivalent to the subject in English. Finally, on the basis of the theories discussed and the critical survey presented, methodological suggestions are advanced, concerning how to introduce this particular usage of "WA" and "GA", to English speaking students. These suggestions are intended to make up for the inadequacies in the textbooks examined. They are concerned with the following four points: 1.The logical introduction of "WA" and "GA". 2.The presentation of several charts representing the functions of "WA" and "GA" in the basic sentence patterns of Japanese. 3.The initial introduction of "WA" and "GA". 4.The order of introducing the four basic functions of "WA" and "GA".

description: The evolution of different forms of photosynthetic life has profoundly altered the activity level of the biosphere, radically reshaping the composition of Earth's oceans and atmosphere over time. However, the mechanistic impacts of a primitive photosynthetic biosphere on Earth's early atmospheric chemistry and climate are poorly understood. Here, we use a global redox balance model to explore the biogeochemical and climatological effects of different forms of primitive photosynthesis. We find that a hybrid ecosystem of H2-based and Fe-based anoxygenic photoautotrophs - organisms that perform photosynthesis without producing oxygen - gives rise to a strong nonlinear amplification of Earth's methane (CH4) cycle, and would thus have represented a critical component of Earth's early climate system before the advent of oxygenic photosynthesis. Using a Monte Carlo approach, we find that a hybrid photosynthetic biosphere widens the range of geochemical conditions that allow for warm climate states well beyond either of these metabolic processes acting in isolation. Our results imply that Earth's early climate was governed by a novel and poorly explored set of regulatory feedbacks linking the anoxic biosphere and the coupled H, C and Fe cycles. We suggest that similar processes should be considered when assessing the potential for sustained habitability on Earth-like planets with reducing atmospheres.

description: We present an extensive theoretical investigation of the mechanical unzipping of double-stranded DNA under the influence of an applied force. In the limit of long polymers, there is a thermodynamic unzipping transition at a critical force value of order 10 pN, with different critical behavior for homopolymers and for random heteropolymers. We extend results on the disorder-averaged behavior of DNA's with random sequences to the more experimentally accessible problem of unzipping a single DNA molecule. As the applied force approaches the critical value, the double-stranded DNA unravels in a series of discrete, sequence-dependent steps that allow it to reach successively deeper energy minima. Plots of extension versus force thus take the striking form of a series of plateaus separated by sharp jumps. Similar qualitative features should reappear in micromanipulation experiments on proteins and on folded RNA molecules. Despite their unusual form, the extension versus force curves for single molecules still reveal remnants of the disorder-averaged critical behavior. Above the transition, the dynamics of the unzipping fork is related to that of a particle diffusing in a random force field; anomalous, disorder-dominated behavior is expected until the applied force exceeds the critical value for unzipping by roughly 5 pN.

description: Magnetic mineral inclusions, as iron oxides or sulfides, occur quite rarely in natural diamonds. Nonetheless, they represent a key tool not only to unveil the conditions of formation of host diamonds, but also to get hints about the paleointensity of the geomagnetic field present at times of the Earth's history otherwise not accessible. This possibility is related to their capability to carry a remanent magnetization dependent on their magnetic history. However, comprehensive experimental studies on magnetic inclusions in diamonds have been rarely reported so far. Here we exploit X-ray diffraction, Synchrotron-based X-ray Tomographic Microscopy and Alternating Field Magnetometry to determine the crystallographic, morphological and magnetic properties of ferrimagnetic Fe-oxides entrapped in diamonds coming from Akwatia (Ghana). We exploit the methodology to estimate the natural remanence of the inclusions, associated to the Earth's magnetic field they experienced, and to get insights on the relative time of formation between host and inclusion systems. Furthermore, from the hysteresis loops and First Order Reversal Curves we determine qualitatively the anisotropy, size and domain state configuration of the magnetic grains constituting the inclusions.

description: This doctorate has been conducted as a practice-as-research based project, resulting in the submission of the 2 hours of recordings of creative work for examination. The written thesis that accompanies the creative work has a tripartite structure, and follows the model described by Robin Nelson in the text Practice as research in the arts: principles, protocols, pedagogies, resistances (Nelson 2013, p.34). The first section, A Conceptual Framework, outlines the history and theoretical implications of the aesthetic of yūgen, surveying the evolution and etymology of the term and describing the traditional techniques used in classical and medieval Japan to evoke the aesthetic in the fields of poetry, painting and garden design. This section concludes with an investigation of the author‘s creative translation of the aesthetic of yūgen into the methods of ludic yūgen, as used in the author‘s creative praxis. These methods involve the use of miegakure, improvisation, omission, limitations, sparse means and the manipulation of shadows and darkness. The second section, A Location in a Lineage, reviews historical practice in the art of recording which has involved the use of the methods of ludic yūgen. The locating of these methods in the rock genre, specifically in the recordist tradition, is elucidated. The use of the methods of ludic yūgen by recording artists such as The Beatles, David Bowie, Brian Eno, Robert Pollard, the Bomb Squad, Beck, Pixies and others is described, and the researcher‘s creative work is revealed as belonging to an unacknowledged tradition of ludic recordists working in the realm of popular music. In addition, the role of humour in ludic yūgen, the ludic approach to music and the importance of the artist‘s unique voice are delineated. The third and final section of the written thesis is essentially a diary of creative practice, functioning as a linear exegesis that traces the development of the creative work and the evolution of the intellectual context in which that praxis takes place.
Brownian Dynamics Studies on DNA Gel Electrophoresis. I. Numerical Method and Quasi-Periodic Behavior of Elongation-Contraction Motions

description: Dynamics of individual DNA undergoing constant field gel electrophoresis (CFGE) is studied by a Brownian dynamics (BD) simulation method which we have developed. The method simulates electrophoresis of DNA in a 3 dimensional (3D) space by a chain of electrolyte beads of hard spheres. Under the constraint that the separation of each pair of bonded beads is restricted to be less than a certain fixed value, as well as with the excluded volume effect, the Langevin equation of motion for the beads is solved by means of the Lagrangian multiplier method. The resultant mobilities, $μ$, as a function of the electric field coincide satisfactorily with the corresponding experimental results, once the time, the length and the field of the simulation are properly scaled. In relatively strong fields quasi-periodic behavior is found in the chain dynamics, and is examined through the time evolution of the radius of the longer principal axis, $R_l(t)$. It is found that the mean width of a peak in $R_l(t)$, or a period of one elongation-contraction process of the chain, is proportional to the number of beads in the chain, $M$, while the mean period between two such adjacent peaks is proportional to $M^0$ for large $M$. These results, combined with the observation that the chain moves to the field direction by the distance proportional to $M$ in each elongation-contraction motion, yield $μ\propto M^0$. This explains why CFGE cannot separate DNA according to their size $L (\propto M)$ for large $L$.

description: The 1-10 terahertz (THz) spectral window is emerging as a key region for plenty of applications, requiring not yet available continuous-wave room-temperature THz spectrometers with high spectral purity and ultra-broad tunability. In this regard, the spectral features of stabilized telecom sources can actually be transferred to the THz range by difference frequency generation, considering that the width of the accessible THz spectrum generally scales with the area involved in the nonlinear interaction. For this reason, in this paper we extensively discuss the role of Lithium Niobate (LN) channel waveguides in the experimental accomplishment of a room-temperature continuous wave (CW) spectrometer, with uW-range power levels and a spectral coverage of up to 7.5 THz.To this purpose, and looking for further improvements, a thought characterization of specially-designed LN waveguides is presented, whilst discussing its nonlinear efficiency and its unprecedented capability to handle high optical power (10 7 W/cm 2 ), on the basis of a three-wave-mixing theoretical model.

description: The post World War II period saw a general downward trend in mortality throughout Asia and Latin America (Arriaga, 1981; Sivamurthy, 1981; Ruzicka and Hansluwka, 1982 ). In some of the countries of Asia, the decline was unprecedentedly fast during the immediate post World War II years (Sivamurthy, 1981). Similarly, in most countries of Latin America, a substantial increase in life expectancy at birth was noted in the 1950s (Arriaga, 1981). However, in the late 1960s and during the 1970s, a slowing down of the rate of mortality decline was observed in many of the less developed countries. In some countries, the deceleration occurred when the levels of life expectancy attained were still below the maximum levels achieved by some developed societies (United Nations, 1973; Arriaga, 1981; Ruzicka and Hansluwka, 1982). The growing evidence of a stagnation of mortality decline at low levels of life expectancy in less developed countries over the past decade or so has prompted national and international groups to critically assess the social and economic policies affecting health in these countries (United Nations, 1984).
On Japanese adverbs of a speaker's subjective attitude
Creators: name: Morimoto, Junko
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 1988
Subjects: subject: Japanese language Adverb

description: This thesis develops a prototype approach to lexicosyntactic categorisation and exemplifies the approach for a set of Japanese adverbs. The general proposals developed in this thesis should contribute to an understanding of lexical subcategorisation where substantial heterogeneity is an issue. In addition, the thesis advances Japanese lexicography by providing detailed analyses of the meaning and use of a number of specific lexical items. Loosely, the adverbs in the set express the speaker’s subjective a ttitu d e or a similar psychological perspective. The set (referred to as SSA adverbs) has approximately 30 members. A prototype subgrouping for this set is motivated and illustrated in detail on the basis of a combination of (and p a rtial convergence of) syntactic, semantic and pragmatic criteria and tests. The thesis demonstrates th a t simply establishing a uniform and discrete class of ‘sentence adverbs’ (characteristic of several earlier approaches) is not a realistic solution for elucidating the internal complexity of adverbs of this kind. The substantial heterogeneity among these items is more amenable to a subcategorisation based on multiple interrelated properties. These properties may vary in strength or salience depending on adverbs, giving rise to a prototype organisation. Chapters in the thesis are arranged in an inductive way. The members of the SSA adverb set are discussed according to criteria in sub-divisions, including detailed lexical analyses at each stage. A view of the internal organisation of SSA adverbs is reached stepby- step, with a final integration.

Boundaries of difference : geographical and social mobility by Lifuan women

Subjects: subject: Women New Caledonia Loyalty Islands

description: In this thesis I investigate Lifuans' construction of identity in the context of their interactions with outsiders in the region and with Europeans. I illustrate the articulation of values and motivations embodied in the indigenous construction of identity by highlighting Lifuans' notions of authority, hierarchy and adoption. I introduce the notion of boundaries of difference as an analytical category to explore how the construct of identity has shifted in different historical contexts and how it is deployed by women and men of Drueulu (Lifu) today. I also explore custom, religion and place as elements which have become salient in defining the identities of men and women through time. I am concerned to examine how representations of indigenous gender relations are woven together with exogenous influences. Women's and men's articulation of tradition and modernity varies. Women predicate their engagement in the wider social arena in terms of motherhood, and, by doing so, have been able to engage in new forms of collectivities and acquire wider autonomy in terms of greater social and geographical mobility. Men, in contrast, make use of custom as a language of resistance in their articulation of tradition and modernity. I consider the various ways men and women have expressed their concerns as different ways of using boundaries of difference. This analytical category should be understood as a way of mapping one's construction of identity, of seeing which elements are put in the foreground, allowing for a redrawing of how men and women represent themselves in different contexts and to outsiders, myself included. I perceive boundaries in a flexible way, meaning that they are informed by intersecting elements and that people consciously redraw them. Thus boundaries of difference should not be seen as a way of juxtaposing Lifuans to outsiders in order to essentialize them, but as a way to reformulate the way they represent themselves in the face of social and political changes. In the latter part of the thesis I analyse women's lives in both village and urban settings. Women construct and live in the two milieux as permeable spaces. The values and the formal and informal support networks of the village accompany people when they move into town, enabling women to render an alien space into a familiar place.
