Title: ‘Of Silos, Soundscapes and Sonic Justice: Thoughts on Dialogic Urban Sound Studies’

 

One of the great strengths of sound studies - and by extension urban sound studies - is its intensely rich potential for interdisciplinary collaboration. Sound is so elemental that it engages a vast range a scholarly areas from literary studies, anthropology, psychology, sociology, history, geography, music and sound studies through to health sciences, engineering, environmental studies, physics, acoustics, biological sciences, and more. Almost every field of study has the potential to contribute to our understanding of sound as a multi-faceted social, cultural and physical phenomenon.

 

And yet, scholarly work on sound has tended to be quite ‘silo-ed’, with relatively little exchange (or even agreement on terminology) between the ‘hard’ sciences, social sciences, humanities and creative arts and between primarily quantitative and qualitative approaches to sound.

 

Within my own field of music studies, there has been a strong turn to the sonic over the past 15 years or so, seen in journals such as Sound Studies (started 2015) and the blog Sounding Out! (started 2009). Largely tracing roots back to the work of Canadian composer, music educator and environmentalist R. Murray Schafer and ethnomusicologist Steven Feld in the 1960s and 70s, today many scholars are exploring sound in relation to the social, cultural, historical and artistic. Indeed, it seems there is hardly a publication or conference paper these days that doesn’t include the word ‘sound’ - and more usually ‘soundscape’ (coined by Michael Southworth in 1967 in a study of the sounds of Boston) - in the title.

 

Drawing on examples from two projects: one on the sounds of Tehran and the other on sound and equity in public space, this presentation asks how we can move beyond our silos and capitalise on the strengths offered by sound’s ubiquity in order to create fruitful dialogue and exchange and a richer field of sound studies.
Chirped Elliptic Waves: Coupled Helmholtz Equations

description: Exact chirped elliptic wave solutions are obtained within the framework of coupled cubic nonlinear Helmholtz equations in the presence of non-Kerr nonlinearity like self steepening and self frequency shift. It is shown that, for a particular combination of the self steepening and the self frequency shift parameters, the associated nontrivial phase gives rise to chirp reversal across the solitary wave profile. But a different combination of non-Kerr terms leads to chirping but no chirp reversal. The effect of nonparaxial parameter on physical quantities such as intensity, speed and pulse-width of the elliptic waves is studied too. It is found that the speed of the solitary wave can be tuned by altering the nonparaxial parameter. Stable propagation of these nonparaxial elliptic waves is achieved by an appropriate choice of parameters.

description: The Badjau of Tawi-Tawi Island (also known as the Sama Dilaut) is a subculture of the larger Samal culture. The Badjau group is distinguished by their nomadic, boat-dwelling lifestyle, which consequently allowed for the preservation of their indigenous religious beliefs (which differ from the Islamic beliefs of the landdwellers). This entry focuses specifically around the time of 1963, “when the traditional culture of these people was still intact” (Nimmo, 1990:4). At this time, Badjau religious beliefs were not distinguished from other aspects of life; this entry therefore considers the religious group to be coterminous with the society at large. Badjau supernatural beings include an otiose high god (Tuhan), non-human spirits (saitan), ancestral spirits (ummagged), vengeful ghosts (pangguah), and a variety of other ghouls/monsters. Religious practitioners known as djin (shamans) communicate with spirits, officiate rites of passage, and serve as ritual leaders. Magic is also present, and include the practices of anting-anting (the wearing of protective amulents), and kabolan (spells and formulas used to being about desired ends such as weather changes). The most important social unit of the Badjau is the nuclear family, which will occasionally come together at moorages to form family alliance units that cooperate for work activities and religious ceremonies. In addition to family alliances, the Badjau recognize about seven localized kin groups (comprised of related family alliance units that regularly moor together). Localized kin groups are led by a headman, and usually contain at least one djin. Social organization among the Badjau is fluid and constantly changing as families move from moorage to moorage.

description: This literature review focuses on researches undertaken since 1980s onwards. The purpose of the study is to identify existing gaps on workplace safety and health management and propose future research areas. The review adds value to existing electronic database through integration of researches’ results. To identify existing gaps, a systematic literature review approach has been used. The reviews were undertaken through keywords and safety related topics. In the literature, various characteristics of workplace safety and health problems were found emanating from the lack of operational activities of the employees, internal working environment and external environment those impose hazards on employee temporarily, permanently and on working environments. The integration of multidisciplinary approaches and collaborative model of hub and peripheral industries to protect workplace safety hazards to develop multilevel model has been undermined in many researches. The other face of finding is that knowledge transfer mechanism and industrial topology factors are left. Some researches finding showed that they have focused on single problems related to health and health factors leaving universal improving workplace safety. In general, this literature reviews compare various studies output based on their research method and findings to fills gap and add value to a body of knowledge.

При возникновении кариеса в первую очередь повреждается зубная эмаль, а если ее не лечить, повреждаются твердые ткани зуба. Сегодня это очень распространено среди детей. Первым признаком кариеса является появление черных пятен на зубной эмали. Если на эти пятна не обратить внимание, диаметр кариеса может увеличиться, патология распространиться глубже в ткани зуба и создать «дырку»[1,2,4,5,6].

description: Observations and models of giant planets indicate that such objects are enriched in heavy elements compared to solar abundances. The prevailing view is that giant planets accreted multiple Earth masses of heavy elements after the end of core formation. Such late solid enrichment is commonly explained by the accretion of planetesimals. Planetesimals are expected to form at the edges of planetary gaps, and here we address the question of whether these planetesimals can be accreted in large enough amounts to explain the inferred high heavy element contents of giant planets. We perform a series of N-body simulations of the dynamics of planetesimals and planets during the planetary growth phase, taking into account gas drag as well as the enhanced collision cross-section caused by the extended envelopes. We consider the growth of Jupiter and Saturn via gas accretion after reaching the pebble isolation mass and we include their migration in an evolving disk. We find that the accretion efficiency of planetesimals formed at planetary gap edges is very low: less than 10% of the formed planetesimals are accreted even in the most favorable cases, which in our model corresponds to a few Earth-masses. When planetesimals are assumed to form beyond the feeding zone of the planets, extending to a few Hill radii from a planet, accretion becomes negligible. Furthermore, we find that the accretion efficiency increases when the planetary migration distance is increased and that the efficiency does not increase when the planetesimal radii are decreased. Based on these results we conclude that it is difficult to explain the large heavy element content of giant planets with planetesimal accretion during the gas accretion phase. Alternative processes most likely are required, e.g. accretion of vapor deposited by drifting pebbles.

Popoluca also known as "Sierra Popoluca"

description: The Popoluca are a group of people who live in eastern Veracruz and Oaxaca, Mexico. Linguistically, there are four groups of Popoluca: the Sierra, Texistepec, Oluta, and Sayula. This entry focuses on the Sierra Popoluca (the largest of the four groups) living specifically in the town and environs of Soteapan, Veracruz around the time of 1950. This region has a long history of cultural contact with outsiders beginning with the Spanish arrival in the sixteenth century. With the Spanish came Catholic missionaries, who built churches, preached, and converted natives. Consequently, the Popoluca are now nominally Catholic. However, Catholic ideas and practices (including the Christian God and rites such as baptism and marriage) have been blended with indigenous beliefs. Elements of former religion can be seen in the variety of supernatural beings as well as rites and ceremonies associated with agricultural and subsistence practices. Priests occasionally visit the area, but no full-time religious leaders are present otherwise. Magical practitioners known as nawats/nawals are present and practice malevolent magic--these individuals can be described as magical practitioners. Religion does not exist within its own distinct sphere of life, but rather pervades all aspects of Popoluca life; this entry considers the religious group to be coterminous with Popoluca society.

description: We report an approximated analytical solution for a single-probe four-state atomic magnetometer where no analytical solution exists. This approximated analytical solution demonstrates excellent accuracy in broad probe power and detuning ranges when compared with the numerical solution obtained using a 4th order Runge-Kutta differential equation solver on MATLAB. The theoretical framework and results also encompass widely applied single-probe three-state atomic magnetometers for which no analytical solution, even approximated, is available to date in small detuning regions.

description: RV surveys of evolved stars allow us to probe a higher stellar mass range compared to main-sequence samples. Differences between the planet populations can be caused by either the differing stellar mass or stellar evolution. To properly disentangle the effects of both, the planet population around giant stars needs to be characterized as accurately as possible. Our goal is to investigate the giant planet occurrence rate around evolved stars and determine its dependence on stellar mass, metallicity, and orbital period. We combine data from the Lick, EXPRESS, and PPPS giant star surveys, yielding a sample of 482 evolved stars and 37 planets. We homogeneously rederived the stellar parameters and accounted for varying observational coverage, precision, and stellar noise properties by computing detection maps via injection and retrieval of synthetic planetary signals. We then computed occurrence rates as a function of period, stellar mass, and metallicity, corrected for incompleteness. Our findings agree with previous studies that found a positive planet-metallicity correlation for evolved stars and identified a peak in the occurrence rate as a function of stellar mass, but our results place it at a slightly smaller mass of 1.68Msun. The period dependence of the occurrence rate seems to follow a broken power-law or log-normal peaking at 700-800 days, roughly corresponding to 1.6AU for a 1Msun star and 2.0AU for a 2Msun star. This peak could be a remnant from halted migration around intermediate-mass stars, caused by stellar evolution, or an artifact from contamination by false positives. The global occurrence rate of giant planetary systems is 10.7% for the entire sample, while the subsets of RGB and HB stars exhibit 14.2% and 6.6%, respectively. However, we demonstrate that the different stellar mass distributions suffice to explain the apparent change of occurrence with evolutionary stage.

description: Accurate and efficient methods to simulate nonadiabatic and quantum nuclear effects in high-dimensional and dissipative systems are crucial for the prediction of chemical dynamics in condensed phase. To facilitate effective development, code sharing and uptake of newly developed dynamics methods, it is important that software implementations can be easily accessed and built upon. Using the Julia programming language, we have developed the NQCDynamics.jl package which provides a framework for established and emerging methods for performing semiclassical and mixed quantum-classical dynamics in condensed phase. The code provides several interfaces to existing atomistic simulation frameworks, electronic structure codes, and machine learning representations. In addition to the existing methods, the package provides infrastructure for developing and deploying new dynamics methods which we hope will benefit reproducibility and code sharing in the field of condensed phase quantum dynamics. Herein, we present our code design choices and the specific Julia programming features from which they benefit. We further demonstrate the capabilities of the package on two examples of chemical dynamics in condensed phase: the population dynamics of the spin-boson model as described by a wide variety of semi-classical and mixed quantum-classical nonadiabatic methods and the reactive scattering of H2 on Ag(111) using the Molecular Dynamics with Electronic Friction method. Together, they exemplify the broad scope of the package to study effective model Hamiltonians and realistic atomistic systems.

description: In this paper, the performance of more than 40 popular or recently developed density functionals is assessed for the calculation of 463 vertical excitation energies against the large and accurate QuestDB benchmark set. For this purpose, the Tamm-Dancoff approximation offers a good balance between performance and accuracy. The functionals $ω$B97X-D and BMK are found to offer the best performance overall with a Root-Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 0.28 eV, better than the computationally more demanding CIS(D) wavefunction method with a RMSE of 0.36 eV. The results also suggest that Jacob's ladder still holds for TDDFT excitation energies, though hybrid meta-GGAs are not generally better than hybrid GGAs. Effects of basis set convergence, gauge invariance correction to meta-GGAs, and nonlocal correlation (VV10) are also studied, and practical basis set recommendations are provided.

description: We present the Transiting Exoplanet Surveying Satellite (TESS) light curve of the intermediate polar YY Draconis (YY Dra, also known as DO Dra). The power spectrum indicates that while there is stream-fed accretion for most of the observational period, there is a day-long, flat-bottomed low state at the beginning of 2020 during which the only periodic signal is ellipsoidal variation and there is no appreciable flickering. We interpret this low state to be a complete cessation of accretion, a phenomenon that has been observed only once before in an intermediate polar. Simultaneous ground-based observations of this faint state establish that when accretion is negligible, YY Dra fades to $g=17.37\pm0.12$, which we infer to be the magnitude of the combined photospheric contributions of the white dwarf and its red dwarf companion. Using survey photometry, we identify additional low states in 2018-2019 during which YY Dra repeatedly fades to -- but never below -- this threshold. This implies relatively frequent cessations in accretion. Spectroscopic observations during future episodes of negligible accretion can be used to directly measure the field strength of the white dwarf by Zeeman splitting. Separately, we search newly available catalogs of variable stars in an attempt to resolve the long-standing dispute over the proper identifier of this system.

Does Monopoly Promote Innovation? A Theoretical Vindication of the Schumpeterian Hypotesis

description: In this paper we reconsider the well known Schumpeterian hypotesis stating the superiority of monopoly over competition in generating fast technological progress. This hypotesis has been challenged by Arrow (1962) and Dasgupta and Stiglitz (1980), who have shown that a monopolist has lower incentives to innovate. After reassessing arrow's and Dasgupta and Stiglitz's argumet, we show that  their conclusion can be reserved and the Schumpeterian conjecture can be confirmed. More precisely, if by “competitive industry” we mean a large Cournot market, then, for small innovations, we show that a monopolist invests in R&D more than such an industry.

In particolare viene posta una speciale enfasi sul problema della lunghezza dei tempi intercorrenti fra il momento della nascita e quello della percezione di un bisogno infrastrutturale ed il suo effettivo e completo soddisfacimento. Una parte rilevante di tale intervallo è imputabile alle procedure che governano il sistema di affidamento dei lavori. E' su questi specifici aspetti che si incentrano le conclusioni di politica industriale che possono essere riassunte nell'adozione di meccanismi automatici e trasparenti di appalto e di una serie di iniziative di corollario atte a ridurre i tempi di esecuzione degli interventi.

description: Based on the two epochs EVN archive data from OH line observations of IIZw 096, we confirm that the high-resolution OH emission in this source mainly comes from two spots (OH1 and OH2) of comp D1 of this merging system. We found no significant variations in the OH line emission. The OH 1665 MHz line emission is detected at about 6 $σ$ level in the OH1 region by combining two epoch EVN observations. We found that the comp D1 shows the brightest CO, HCO+ line emission, as well as multi-band radio continuum emission. The environment around D1 shows no clear velocity structure associated with circular motions, making it different from most other OHMs in the literature, which might have been caused by an effect during the merger stage. Meanwhile, we found that the CO emission shows three velocity structures around D1, including the central broad FWHM region, the double peak region where the CO line profile shows two separated peaks, and the region of the high-velocity clouds where the CO line peaks at a high velocity ($\sim$ 11000 \kms). \HI in absorption also show high-velocity clouds around the D1 region, which might be due to inflows caused by the merging of two or more galaxy components. Based on the high-resolution K-band VLA and L-band VLBA observations of the radio continuum emission, we derived the brightness temperature in the range $10^{5}$ K to $10^{6}$ K, which is consistent with other starburst dominant OHM sources in the literature. The multi-band VLA observations show that the radio continuum emission of comp D might also have contributions from free-free emission, besides synchrotron emission. As a concenquence, these results support a starburst origin for the OHMs, without the presence of an AGN.

Trumai

description: “The Trumai are one of several indigenous peoples of central Brazil, living in small, ethnically based communities widely dispersed in a region that formed the headwaters of the Xingu River, one of the largest tributaries of the Amazon (Adem, 2010).” This entry is based on ethnographic information obtained by anthropologist Buell Quain during his 1938 stay at the Trumai village of Vanivani, along the Kuluene River. The Trumai population was already diminishing by the time of Quain’s visit; he recorded that the village contained four households and a total population of 43 individuals. The village was led by a chieftain who received varying levels of respect from the community. His primary responsibilities were to give daily speeches and coordinate communal projects. Two sub-chiefs were present, and had the sole function of taking office if the chieftain was away from the village. It was possible for a chief to also be a shaman, but at the time of Quain’s visit the chieftain was only able to employ the shamanistic art of curing, which was a skill most adult males could perform. A shaman is distinguished by having the special powers of locating enemy war parties and the ability to see the afterworld. Supernatural beings (ghosts and various nonhuman spirits) are present, and are the main characters of many Trumai legends/stories, but do not have direct causal efficacy in the earthly realm. Rain (Ka’wizu) was the only being mentioned to interact with the world, and was said to be the agent of rain and storms. A variety of ceremonies were also present during Quain’s visit, with the most important being the ole (manioc) ceremony, which is associated with crop fertility. Religion and the supernatural realm generally do not appear to be of major concern/importance in the daily lives of the Trumai, and many practices and ceremonies have been lost to memory. Murphy and Quain (1955:101) note that “in the case of the Trumai, disinterest in the religious sphere was closely related to disinterest in other aspects of their culture.” Just 10 years after Quain’s visit the Trumai population shrunk to 25, which is hypothesized to be the result of introduced diseases and low birth rate. Note that this entry considers the Trumai religious group to be coterminous with Trumai society.

If debt monetization is possible, the lower inflation of long term case is traded off with the lower distortionary taxation in the short term case and no unambiguous conclusion can be reached.

description: ALMA continuum observations of thermal emission from the dust component of protoplanetary disks have revealed an abundance of substructures that may be interpreted as evidence for embedded planets, but planet-driven spiral arms -- perhaps one of the most compelling lines of evidence -- have proven comparatively elusive. In this work, we test the capabilities of ALMA to detect the planet-driven spiral signal in continuum emission. Carrying out hydrodynamic simulations and radiative transfer calculations, we present synthetic Band 7 continuum images for a wide range of disk and observing conditions. We show that thermal mass planets at tens of au typically drive spirals detectable within a few hours of integration time, and the detectable planet mass may be as low as $\sim$Neptune mass ($0.3 \, M_{\rm th}$). The grains probed by ALMA form spirals morphologically identical to the underlying gas spiral. The temperature of the dust spiral is crucial in determining its contrast, and spirals are easier to detect in disks with an adiabatic equation of state and longer cooling times. Resolving the spiral is not necessary for its detection; with the help of residual maps, the optimal beam size is a few times the spiral width at a constant noise level. Finally, we show how the presence of gaps and rings can impair our ability to recognize co-located spirals. Our work demonstrates the planet-finding potential of the current design specification of ALMA, and suggests that observing capability is not the bottleneck in searching for spirals induced by thermal mass planets.

description: Supersonic flows in the interstellar medium (ISM) are believed to be a key driver of the molecular cloud formation and evolution. Among molecular clouds' properties, the ratio between the solenoidal and compressive modes of turbulence plays important roles in determining the star formation efficiency. We use numerical simulations of supersonic converging flows of the warm neutral medium (WNM) resolving the thermal instability to calculate the early phase of molecular cloud formation, and investigate the turbulence structure and the density probability distribution function (density PDF) of the multiphase ISM. We find that both the solenoidal and compressive modes have their power spectrum similar to the Kolmogorov spectrum. The solenoidal (compressive) modes account for >~80% (

Ordinamenti parziali e curve di Lorenz nella misurazione della disuguaglianza

description: La teoria della misurazione della disuguaglianza ha subito nuovi importanti impulsi negli ultimi venti anni in seguito all'impiego, mutuato dalla teoria delle scelte in condizioni di incertezza, delle condizioni di dominanza stocastica. L'approccio perseguito è quello del confronto, in termini di benessere sociale, tra diverse distribuzioni di reddito sulla base di un criterio di ordinamento parziale. Tale impostazione si contrappone a quella assiomatica in quanto non implica l'adesione ad alcuna specifica misura sintetica della disuguaglianza nè quindi ad un giudizio di valore particolare, non necessariamente condiviso, in tema di equity. In questo lavoro si intende ripercorrere in modo sistematico tale recente filone della letteratura, che si fonda sul criterio di dominanza di Lorenz e su ulteriori estensioni teoriche, quali la dominanza generalizzata e quella generalizzata e sequenziale.

description: In plasmonics, and particularly in plasmonic photochemistry, the effect of hot-electron generation is an exciting phenomenon driving new fundamental and applied research. However, obtaining a microscopic description of the hot-electron states represents a challenging problem, limiting our capability to design efficient nanoantennas exploiting these excited carriers. This paper addresses this limitation and studies the spatial distributions of the photophysical dynamic parameters controlling the local surface photochemistry on a plasmonic nanocrystal. We found that the generation of energetic electrons and holes in small plasmonic nanocrystals with complex shapes is strongly position-dependent and anisotropic, whereas the phototemperature across the nanocrystal surface is nearly uniform. Our formalism includes three mechanisms for the generation of excited carriers: the Drude process, the surface-assisted generation of hot-electrons in the sp-band, and the excitation of interband d-holes. Our computations show that the hot-carrier generation originating from these mechanisms reflects the internal structure of hot spots in nanocrystals with complex shapes. The injection of energetic carriers and increased surface phototemperature are driving forces for photocatalytic and photo-growth processes on the surface of plasmonic nanostructures. Therefore, developing a consistent microscopic theory of such processes is necessary for designing efficient nanoantennas for photocatalytic applications.

description: Secondary eclipse observations of hot Jupiters can reveal both their compositions and thermal structures. Previous observations have shown a diversity of hot Jupiter eclipse spectra, including absorption features, emission features, and featureless blackbody-like spectra. We present a secondary eclipse spectrum of the hot Jupiter WASP-77Ab observed between $1-5$ $μ$m with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and the Spitzer Space Telescope. The HST observations show signs of water absorption indicative of a non-inverted thermal structure. We fit the data with both a one-dimensional free retrieval and a grid of one-dimensional self-consistent forward models to confirm this non-inverted structure. The free retrieval places a $3σ$ lower limit on the atmospheric water abundance of $\log(n_\mathrm{H_2O})>-4.78$ and can not constrain the CO abundance. The grid fit produces a slightly super-stellar metallicity and constrains the carbon-to-oxygen ratio to less than or equal to the solar value. We also compare our data to recent high-resolution observations of WASP-77Ab taken with the Gemini-South/IGRINS spectrograph and find that our observations are consistent with the best-fit model to the high-resolution data. However, the metallicity derived from the IGRINS data is significantly lower than that derived from our self-consistent model fit. We find that this difference may be due to disequilibrium chemistry, and the varying results between the models applied here demonstrate the difficulty of constraining disequilibrium chemistry with low-resolution, low wavelength coverage data alone. Future work to combine observations from IGRINS, HST, and JWST will improve our estimate of the atmospheric composition of WASP-77Ab.

description: The gamma-ray halo around Geminga is formed owing to the slow diffusion of the electrons released by the Geminga PWN. The latest HAWC and HESS observations exhibit complex features in the TeV gamma-ray spectrum of the Geminga halo. We first show that the new results cannot be interpreted by the commonly used simple model, where a single power-law injection spectrum and an energy index of $δ=1/3$ for the diffusion coefficient are assumed. We then propose a two-population electron injection model based on the x-ray observations of the Geminga PWN, which consists of a population of freshly accelerated electrons escaping from the PWN through rapid outflows and a population trapped longer inside the PWN before escaping. The two-population model interprets the HAWC and HESS data well, and the goodness of fit improves significantly compared with the single power-law injection model. It also predicts a different energy dependency of the gamma-ray profile from the single power-law model, which could be tested by LHAASO in the coming future. We note that a $δ$ slightly larger than 1 is needed to fit the HAWC and HESS data consistently. We also discuss the possible improvements by adopting the two-zone diffusion model.
