description: We use the Delphi semi-analytic model to study the mass assembly and properties of high-redshift ($z>4$) black holes over a wide mass range, $10^3 < M_{bh}/M_\odot < 10^{10}$. Our black hole growth implementation includes a critical halo mass ($M_{h}^{crit}$) below which the black hole is starved and above which it is allowed to grow either at the Eddington limit or proportionally to the gas content of the galaxy. As a consequence, after an initial growth phase dominated by black hole mergers down to $z \sim 7 (9)$, supermassive black holes in $z=4$ halo masses of $M_h|_{z=4} \sim 10^{11.75} ~ (10^{13.4}) M_\odot$ mainly grow by gas accretion from the interstellar medium. In particular, we find that: (i) while most of the accretion occurs in the major branch for $M_h|_{z=4} \sim 10^{11-12} M_\odot$ halos, accretion in secondary branches plays a significant role in assembling the black hole mass in higher-mass halos ($M_h|_{z=4} \gtrsim 10^{12} M_\odot$); (ii) while the Eddington ratio increases with decreasing redshift for low-mass ($M_{bh} < 10^5 M_\odot$) black holes, it shows the opposite trend for larger masses. In addition, since the accretion rate depends on the gas mass present in the host halo, the duty cycle of the Eddington-limited accretion phase -- which can last up to $\approx 650$ Myr -- is crucially linked to the joint assembly history of the black hole and its host halo.

description: Unter Musterbildung versteht man einen dynamischen Prozess, bei dem durch eine Instabilität des Ausgangszustandes selbstorganisiert räumliche oder zeitliche Strukturen entstehen. Die vorliegende Dissertation beschäftigt sich mit generischen Aspekten der Musterbildung und ihren Funktionen in biologischen, chemischen und aktiven Systemen. Die erste Hälfte der Arbeit konzentriert sich dabei auf verschiedene Auswirkungen räumlicher Beschränkung. In der zweiten Hälfte der Dissertation werden die Effekte von Erhaltungsgrößen thematisiert, die zu einem Nichtgleichgewichts-Entmischungsphänomen namens ``aktive Phasenseparation'' führen können.

description: We present our findings based on a detailed analysis for the binaries of the Hyades, in which the masses of the components are well known. We fit the models of components of a binary system to the observations so as to give the observed total V and B-V of that system and the observed slope of the main-sequence in the corresponding parts. According to our findings, there is a very definite relationship between the mixing-length parameter and the stellar mass. The fitting formula for this relationship can be given as $alpha = 9.19 (M/M_sun-0.74)^{0.053}-6.65$, which is valid for stellar masses greater than 0.77 M_sun. While no strict information is gathered for the chemical composition of the cluster, as a result of degeneracy in the colour-magnitude diagram, by adopting Z=0.033 and using models for the components of 70 Tau and theta^2 Tau we find the hydrogen abundance to be X=0.676 and the age to be 670 Myr. If we assume that Z=0.024, then X=0.718 and the age is 720 Myr. Our findings concerning the mixing length parameter are valid for both sets of the solution. For both components of the active binary system V818 Tau, the differences between radii of the models with Z=0.024 and the observed radii are only about 4 percent. More generally, the effective temperatures of the models of low mass stars in the binary systems studied are in good agreement with those determined by spectroscopic methods.

description: In this paper the differential participation of men and women in scientific communities of practice was examined in two graduate science departments. Data from a survey questionnaire and interviews with graduate students and faculty members were used to examine students' level of participation in their community of practice. Within each department, vital areas were identified which either limited or facilitated students' participation. Collaboration among the members of research teams, collegiality among research groups, and diversity within the academic and student bodies facilitated students' participation at various levels. In contrast, competition, lack of collaboration, and lack of collegiality and diversity, limited students' participation in their communities of practice.

description: We present the design and test results of a Drivers and Limiting AmplifierS ASIC operating at 10 Gbps (DLAS10) and three Miniature Optical Transmitter/Receiver/Transceiver modules (MTx+, MRx+, and MTRx+) based on DLAS10. DLAS10 can drive two Transmitter Optical Sub-Assemblies (TOSAs) of Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSELs), receive the signals from two Receiver Optical Sub-Assemblies (ROSAs) that have no embedded limiting amplifiers, or drive a VCSEL TOSA and receive the signal from a ROSA, respectively. Each channel of DLAS10 consists of an input Continuous Time Linear Equalizer (CTLE), a four-stage limiting amplifier (LA), and an output driver. The LA amplifies the signals of variable levels to a stable swing. The output driver drives VCSELs or impedance-controlled traces. DLAS10 is fabricated in a 65 nm CMOS technology. The die is 1 mm x 1 mm. DLAS10 is packaged in a 4 mm x 4 mm 24-pin quad-flat no-leads (QFN) package. DLAS10 has been tested in MTx+, MRx+, and MTRx+ modules. Both measured optical and electrical eye diagrams pass the 10 Gbps eye mask test. The input electrical sensitivity is 40 mVp-p, while the input optical sensitivity is -12 dBm. The total jitter of MRx+ is 29 ps (P-P) with a random jitter of 1.6 ps (RMS) and a deterministic jitter of 9.9 ps. Each MTx+/MTRx+ module consumes 82 mW/ch and 174 mW/ch, respectively.

description: We study the relationships between galaxy total luminosity (M_g), morphology, color and environment as a function of redshift. We use a magnitude-limited sample of 65,624 galaxies in the redshift range 02 number fractions at z=0.1 agree well with those based on SDSS galaxies. We find that the n>2 galaxy number fraction is constant with redshift in the field. However, for overdense environments this fraction is larger and increases towards lower redshifts, higher densities and higher luminosities. Rest-frame color-magnitude diagrams show that the color distribution is bimodal out to our redshift limit of z~1 with a prominent red-sequence of galaxies at 0.21). For all environments, this fraction increases towards lower redshifts and higher luminosities. The red fraction within cluster-like regions changes 60% faster with redshift as compared to the field for M_g

description: This research examined the gender typing of managerial subroles for entry, middle and senior-level positions to evaluate if gender typing serves as a barrier to women's advancement into senior level positions. Interscholastic athletic directors and managers in the sport industry (n = 167) evaluated the importance of 19 managerial subroles for entry, middle, and senior level managers. Results indicate feminine managerial subroles were more important for entry and middle level managers than masculine managerial subroles (p < .05). There was no significant difference between masculine and feminine subroles in senior level manager positions. Feminine subroles may be more important than masculine subroles for entry and middle level positions while both feminine and masculine subroles are important for senior level managers.

description: Over the years, mobile phones have become versatile devices with a multitude of capabilities due to the plethora of embedded sensors that enable them to capture rich data unobtrusively. In a world where people are more conscious regarding their health and well-being, the pervasiveness of smartphones has enabled researchers to build apps that assist people to live healthier lifestyles, and to diagnose and monitor various health conditions. Motivated by the high smartphone coverage among young adults and the unique issues they face, in this review paper, we focus on studies that have used smartphone sensing for the well-being of young adults. We analyze existing work in the domain from two perspectives, namely Data Perspective and System Perspective. For both these perspectives, we propose taxonomies motivated from human science literature, which enable to identify important study areas. Furthermore, we emphasize the importance of diversity-awareness in smartphone sensing, and provide insights and future directions for researchers in ubiquitous and mobile computing, and especially to new researchers who want to understand the basics of smartphone sensing research targeting the well-being of young adults.

Using the star-graph expansion technique quenched disorder averages can be calculated exactly for arbitrary uncorrelated coupling distributions while keeping the disorder strength p as well as the dimension d as symbolic parameters. We present analyses of the new series for the susceptibility of the Ising (q=2) and 4-state Potts model in three dimensions up to order 19 and 18, respectively, and compare our findings with results from field-theoretical renormalization group studies and Monte Carlo simulations.

The Role of Balance in Women's Leadership Self-Identity
Creators: name: Hertneky, Dr. Robbie Palmer
Publisher: name: Advancing Women in Leadership Journal
Year: 2017

description: This study explores the role balance plays in the leadership self-identity of women college presidents. Their understanding of themselves as leaders reveals the complexity of leadership. Balance goes beyond juggling personal and professional lives and time commitments. It encompasses embracing weaknesses as well as strengths without losing competence or credibility, understanding that self-confidence and missteps are compatible, knowing that language can divide as well as unite, and recognizing that leadership includes loneliness and distance along with connection and praise. Using narrative inquiry, the research examines the following: how these women describe and define themselves as leaders, what personal attributes contribute to their leadership, their past and future career intentions, how their relationships influence their leadership self-identity, and the stories they tell about themselves and their experiences. A clear picture of leadership self-identity as a holistic concept emerges, integrating five critical components""balance, authenticity, leading through relationships, composing a life, and learning. The complexity and nuance of balance as a facet of leadership, and the resulting implications for identifying and selecting leaders, is the focus of this article.

Episodes of change in experiential systemic marital therapy : a discovery-oriented investigation
Creators: name: Ferrada, Natacha
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This investigation sought to discover, identify and describe in-session change episodes in marital Experiential Systemic Therapy (Friesen et al., 1989) through a naturalistic discovery-oriented methodology. This study responds to calls made regarding the need to study complex and intricate processes, such as psychotherapy (Greenberg, 1986), via discovery-oriented methods (Mahrer, 1988). The observational analysis of 40 videotaped-sessions, of three couples, revealed the presence of ten episodes of change. The actions and interactions of the members of the therapeutic system in these episodes were analyzed via the grounded theory method of analysis. This analysis generated a conceptual framework describing the internal structure of change. The resulting conceptual framework consisted of a core category named synergetic shifting. This category refers to an interactional process in which the partners with the assistance of the therapist moved away from rigid, distancing and alienating interactional patterns toward interpersonal flexibility, compassion and affiliation by working through blocks hindering the couples' engagement and intimate connection. Synergetic shifting consists of four client and three therapist categories. Within the progressive nature of synergetic shifting, the client categories were: (1) owning one's part in the relational conflict; (2) couple contacting: restricted and limited; (3) couple working through blocks to intimacy; and (4) couple engaging compassionately. The therapist's actions and interactions were categorized under supporting, transitional and shifting operations.

description: We report the results from a detailed timing and spectral study of transient X-ray pulsars, 4U 1901+03 during its 2019 outburst. We performed broadband spectroscopy in the 1-70 keV energy band using four observations made with Swift and NuSTAR at different intensity levels. Our timing results reveal the presence of highly variable pulse profiles dependent on both luminosity and energy. Our spectroscopy results showed the presence of a cyclotron resonance scattering feature (CRSF) at ~30 keV. This feature at 30 keV is highly luminosity and pulse-phase dependent. Phase-averaged spectra during the last two observations, made close to the declining phase of the outburst showed the presence of this feature at around 30 keV. The existence of CRSF at 30 keV during these observations is well supported by an abrupt change in the shape of pulse profiles found close to this energy. We also found that 30 keV feature was significantly detected in the pulse-phase resolved spectra of observations made at relatively high luminosities. Moreover, all spectral fit parameters showed a strong pulse phase dependence. In line with the previous findings, an absorption feature at around 10 keV is significantly observed in the phase-averaged X-ray spectra of all observations and also showed a strong pulse phase dependence.

description: The effects of process gas environment on reducing the density of platinum inclusions in phosphate laser glasses are examined. The platinum inclusions originate from the crucibles used to melt the laser glass and can lead to optical damage in glasses used in highpeak- power lasers. The melting experiments examine the effects of N₂, O₂ and CI₂ gases on inclusion density and platinum dissolution rates. The more oxidizing the process gas conditions, the greater the dissolution rate (O₂ + CI₂ > O₂ » N₂). A thin-film mass transport model is used to analyze dissolution rate data for small plates of platinum over a range of temperatures from 1000 to 1200°C and oxygen fugacity of 10³ to 1 bar. At 1200°C the platinum dissolution rate is approximately 3.0- 10⁻⁸ (Pₒ₂)⁰⁷ (in g/(cm² * s)) where Pₒ₂ is the oxygen fugacity of the process gas in bar. Using CI₂ rather than O₂ causes a measurable increase in the optical absorption of the glass that may be due to either a red-shift and/or a greater absorption coefficient for the platinumchlorine complex.

description: We describe the extension of the improvement program for bilinear operators composed of Wilson fermions to non-degenerate dynamical quarks. We consider two, three and four flavors, and both flavor non-singlet and singlet operators. We find that there are many more improvement coefficients than with degenerate quarks, but that, for three or four flavors, nearly all can be determined by enforcing vector and axial Ward identities. The situation is worse for two flavors, where many more coefficients remain undetermined.

description: The strong subadditivity is the most important inequality which entanglement entropy satisfies. Based on the AdS/CFT conjecture, entanglement entropy in CFT is equal to the area of the minimal surface in AdS space. It is known that a Wilson loop can also be holographically computed from the minimal surface in AdS space. In this paper, we argue that Wilson loops also satisfy a similar inequality, and find several evidences of it.

description: In order to measure the time dependence of the stress relaxation modulus, E, a stress-strain deformation has to precede which induces a stress within the viscoelastic sample from which the sample relaxes. The generation of stress is characterized by a strain rate-dependent and relaxation rate-dependent portion which exhibits a maximum value, E_max, which is called "stress generation modulus". E_max was called the "maximum stress relaxation modulus" in earlier papers. Meanwhile, however, it turned out that a better verbal distinction should be made in future by the new term "stress generation modulus" because E_max is about one order of magnitude larger than E.
Constraining the shear acceleration model for the X-ray emission of large-scale extragalactic jets
Creators: name: Tavecchio, F.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The nature of the intense X-ray emission from powerful extragalactic jets at large ($>1$ kpc) scale is still debated. The scenario that invokes the inverse Compton scattering of the CMB by electrons is challenged by the lack of gamma-ray emission in the GeV band. An alternative assumes synchrotron emission by a distinct population of ultra-high energy electrons. Here we present a concrete attempt to apply this scenario, exploring the specific model in which the ultra-high energy electrons are accelerated in a shear layer surrounding the jet. We limit the study to non-relativistic flows and particle acceleration is treated by a Fokker-Planck equation. The observed relation between low energy (radio, optical) and X-ray emission prompts us to assume that the required population of pre-accelerated particles is provided by a shock responsible for the acceleration of the electrons emitting at low frequencies. We apply the model to the emission of the principal knots of the jets of PKS 0637-752 and PKS 1136-135, two of the best studied objects. For the set of fiducial parameters adopted, the condition that the jet power does not exceeds a limiting value of $10^{48}$ erg s$^{-1}$ constrains the magnetic field above $10$ $μ$G and indicates moderate beaming ($δ\simeq 2$) for PKS 0637-752. For both sources, the requirement that acceleration of the electrons proceeds faster than radiative cooling can be met if the magnetic turbulence in the shear layer follows a Kolmogorov spectrum, $I(k)\propto k^{-q}$ with $q=5/3$, but cannot satisfied in the Bohm-like case ($q=1$).

The Leadership Discourse Amongst Female Police Leaders in Sweden
Creators: name: Österlind, Malin
name: Haake, Dr. Ulrika
Publisher: name: Advancing Women in Leadership Journal
Year: 2017

description: Female leaders within the police force in Sweden are in a minority. Although their numbers are increasing, little is known about their experiences. By using interviews and discourse analysis, this article aims to analyse and construct the leadership discourse articulated by female leaders within the Swedish Police. It is argued here, as in previous research, that female leaders experience a range of different aspects in their roles as leaders. The female leadership discourse within the police is constructed around five themes of discussion: (a) the leadership style of good leaders is generally a transformational one; (b) a transactional approach to leadership is visible in relation to crisis situations; (c) extensive experience as a police officer is of importance; (d) leaders need support in different ways, and (e) experiences of being a "˜token' female in a male-dominated organisation is common. Above all, this article challenges the notion that a "˜feminine leadership style' exists. It is also argued that an intersectional perspective on police leadership is preferable, and that co-workers have an impact on leadership processes.

description: Following an operation of 5½ years, the prototype of the well-known LoNOx® Melter was shut down in the bottle glass plant at Steinbach am Wald, repaired and then put into operation again. This paper is about the operational experience gained during the time the melter was in operation as well as about the changes made during the repair and their initial consequences. During the last furnace campaign the tonnage was increased from 165 to a maximum of 220 t/d and the cullet ratio was raised to 95 % at the same time. The specific energy consumption decreased to below 3600 kJ/kg and it was possible to further reduce it to 3300 kJ/kg following the repair. The proportion of booster energy, too, was reduced. The NOₓ levels initially achieved were mostly below the target value set by TA Luft (air pollution regulations). At present, the target value can be maintained in a stable way. This type of furnace can be considered to be a good alternative to conventional furnaces with a Denox unit.

description: Strong accretion shocks are expected to illuminate the warm-hot inter-galactic medium encompassed by the filaments of the cosmic web, through synchrotron radio emission. Given their high sensitivity, low-frequency large radio facilities may already be able to detect signatures of this extended radio emission from the region in between two close and massive galaxy clusters. In this work we exploit the non-detection of such diffuse emission by deep observations of two pairs of relatively close ($\simeq 10$ Mpc) and massive ($M_{500}\geq 10^{14}M_\odot$) galaxy clusters using the LOw-Frequency ARray (LOFAR). By combining the results from the two putative inter-cluster filaments, we derive new independent constraints on the median strength of inter-galactic magnetic fields: $B_{\rm 10 Mpc}< 2.5\times 10^2\,\rm nG\,(95\%\, \rm CL)$. Based on cosmological simulations and assuming a primordial origin of the B-fields, these estimates can be used to limit the amplitude of primordial seed magnetic fields: $B_0\leq10\,\rm nG$. We advise the observation of similar cluster pairs as a powerful tool to set tight constraints on the amplitude of extragalactic magnetic fields.

Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: 660

description: During the mehing down of glass batches a variety of gases are set free. The redox conditions of the melt can be influenced by these gases, because both the gases and the melt are at the same time in a temperature range of 200 K. For the quantification of this influence batches with different charges of coal were heated in comparison with a batch without additions of coal. The final temperature was 1000°C and the heating rate lOK/min. With the continuous measurement of the oxygen partial pressure and the content of CO in the gas the effect of coal on the reactions of gases during the heating of batches can be described.
We Did It Our Way: Motivations, Satisfactions, and Accomplishments of Senior Academic Women

Year: 2017

description: In a survey of senior academic women whose careers began around 1970, over half of the 98 respondents cited the desire to serve or make a difference and sought personal fulfillment in their work. Most saw men's motivations as dissimilar, typically as more self-interested and competitive. Despite generally high satisfaction, dissatisfaction with time pressure/workload and with support was common. Satisfactions and accomplishments overlapped. Frequently mentioned were teaching, scholarship, and their discipline, especially by faculty, and programmatic accomplishments, especially by administrators. Many respondents mentioned helping women; many mentioned a collaborative, nurturing style as integral to their success and as different from their typical male colleagues. Context is provided by the metaphor of immigration (Martin, 1997, 2000), the concept of ambivalent sexism (Krefting, 2003; Glick & Fiske, 1999), and recent work on women and leadership by Eagly and colleagues (e.g., Eagly, 2005; Eagly & Carli, 2007).

description: We demonstrate that the variation of the Andreev reflection with applied magnetic field provides a direct means of comparing the properties of MgB2 with the theory for a dirty two-band superconductor, and we find good agreement between the two. The ratio of electron diffusivities in the s and p bands can be inferred from this experiment. We find that the field dependence of the density of states at the Fermi level in the p band is independent of the field direction, and that the anisotropic upper critical field is determined by the anisotropic diffusivity in the s band.
Hillary Clinton's Race: Did She Match the Presidential Prototype?

description: The present research addresses how voters' perceptions of Hillary Clinton's warmth and competence influenced decisions to vote for her in the 2008 Democratic primary. We apply research on gender stereotypes and perceptions of women leaders to demonstrate that voters perceived Clinton as highly competent but relatively less warm. Further, this research examines how perceptions of Clinton's warmth and competence contributed to decisions to vote for her. Results suggest that perceptions of Clinton's warmth and competence differentially predicted voting behavior for voters strongly and less strongly identified with their political party. This research provides a descriptive analysis of how voters' beliefs about leaders can be colored by gender, and how such beliefs contribute to electing women candidates.

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: We have studied the effect of anisotropies on the quantum phase transition of the Kondo necklace model in dimensions D=1, 2 and 3. Both the anisotropy $δ$ of the inter-site interaction term and anisotropy $Δ$ of the on-site Kondo interaction have been included. We use a bond operator method with constraints implemented in mean field approximation. Starting from the paramagnetic phase we determine the critical ratio $(t/J)_c$ of the quantum critical point and associated scaling exponents of the Kondo-singlet gap. We show that in the case of easy-axis type anisotropy $δ>1$ a qualitatively new behavior in comparison to the conventional Kondo necklace model with ($δ$,$Δ$)=(0,1) appears. We have also obtained the antiferromagnetic order parameter in the long range ordered phase for $t > t_c$.

Learning about the Human Aspect of the Scientific Enterprise: Gender Differences in Conceptions of Scientific Knowledge
Creators: name: Peters Burton, Dr. Erin E.
Publisher: name: Advancing Women in Leadership Journal
Year: 2017

description: Calls for new ways to teach science include an emphasis on the human endeavor of science and for making science more relevant to a feminine perspective. This quasi-experimental intervention study of 166 middle school students approaches the teaching of the nature of science in an explicit and reflective way that also enhances the humanistic perspective of scientific knowledge construction. Girls in the experimental group significantly outperformed both boys in the experimental group and boys and girls in the comparison group on nature of science knowledge and on content knowledge. Differences were also found in the qualitative results. Girls saw the process of cognition as a group endeavor, whereas boys reported the process as being generated by themselves, with guidance from books or from the teacher. Additionally, girls in the experimental group tended to rely more on evidence in making conclusions and boys relied more on authority when they developed the "big ideas" in their inquiry.

Anisotropic optical properties and flow behaviour of mechanically deformed single-phase glass melts

Year: 1994
Subjects: subject: 660

description: Starting from the stress-optical coefficient around and above Tg, the following effects are regarded in order to give a comprehensive picture of the structural response of various glass melts under flow conditions at various temperatures: anisotropy o f glass fibres, the flow birefringence and Maxwell constant of the melt directly and/or indirectly via frozen-in anisotropics by cooling the melt thermally stress-free under mechanical load. Some of the applied various rheological methods allow to study the Newtonian and non-Newtonian viscosity additionally to the birefringence. Four very different glass melts are investigated under these aspects: a potassium-calciumsilicate glass, a float glass, an alkali metasilicate glass and an alkali metaphosphate glass. The results show that there are significant differences in the specific birefringence and in the deviation from Newtonian flow behaviour depending on the special flow units of the glass types. The structure of these anisotropic glasses and melts extends from frozen-in deformations of the network to orientations of chain-like flow units depending on chemical composition, temperature, mechanical stress and deformation rate. Particularly, a close connection between the onset of the non-Newtonian flow behaviour and the alteration o f the specific birefringence was found at certain critical stresses.

Modified strong-coupling treatment of a spin-1/2 Heisenberg trimerized chain developed from the exactly solved Ising-Heisenberg diamond chain

description: Quantum spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg trimerized chain with strong intradimer and weak monomer-dimer coupling constants is studied using the novel many-body perturbation expansion, which is developed from the exactly solved spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg diamond chain preserving correlations between all interacting spins of the trimerized chain unlike the standard perturbation scheme developed on the grounds of noninteracting spin monomers and dimers. The Heisenberg trimerized chain shows the intermediate one-third plateau, which was also observed in the magnetization curve of the polymeric compound Cu$_3$(P$_2$O$_6$OH)$_2$ affording its experimental realization. Within the modified strong-coupling method we have obtained the effective Hamiltonians for the magnetic-field range from zero to one-third plateau, and from one-third plateau to the saturation magnetization. The second-order perturbation theory shows reliable results even for the moderate ratio between weaker dimer-monomer and stronger intradimer coupling constants. We have also examined thermodynamic properties and recovered the low-temperature peak in the specific heat. The accuracy of the developed method is tested through a comparison with numerical density-matrix renormalization group and quantum Monte Carlo simulations. Using the results for the effective Hamiltonian we suggest straightforward procedure for finding the microscopic parameters of one-dimensional trimerized magnetic compounds with strong intradimer and weak monomer-dimer couplings. We found the refined values for the coupling constants of Cu$_3$(P$_2$O$_6$OH)$_2$ by matching the theoretical results with the available experimental data for the magnetization and magnetic susceptibility in a wide range of temperatures and magnetic fields.

description: The Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP) will be a powerful instrument for performing large-scale surveys of galaxies. Its frequency range and large field of view makes it especially useful for an all-sky survey of Local Volume galaxies, and will probably increase the number of known galaxies closer than 10 Mpc by a factor of two and increase, by at least an order of magnitude, the number detected in HI. Implications for our knowledge of the HI mass function for the very faintest galaxies and for the structure and dynamics of the Local Volume are discussed.

description: The strength of flat glass, especially of tempered or heat-strengthened flat glass, can be determined by means o f the four-point bending method according to a German standard. The strength of a specimen is defined as the tensile stress in its central part at failure, and this failure stress is calculated using the Bernoulli beam bending theory. However, the basic conditions o f this theory are not fulfilled in the experiments. Deviations from the method o f evaluation, as specified in the standard, are pointed out in this paper using a nonlinear theory of shells; the numerical calculations were confirmed by experiments.

description: This study queried graduate student perceptions of, and experiences with harassment and discrimination in a college of education (COE). The study employed inclusive sampling, targeting all graduate students enrolled in COE classes from fall 2000 to summer 2006. One hundred and ninety-three surveys were completed and returned (12% response rate). While findings revealed relatively low incidences of harassment (26 incidents or 13.5%) and discrimination (27 incidents or 14%) within the COE; with oral remarks, in terms of insensitive or disparaging comments, perpetrated by faculty and students, within COE classrooms, the most frequent form of harassment/discrimination observed and/or experienced; this study contributes yet another example of data-driven evidence regarding the ongoing need in higher education settings for organizations and individuals to act with intentionality and purpose to ameliorate persistent harassment and discrimination.

Authentic Leadership: As Exemplified by Kamla Persad Bissessar- Implications for Current and Potential Leaders
Creators: name: Bissessar, Dr. Charmaine
Publisher: name: Advancing Women in Leadership Journal
Year: 2017

description: The focus of this paper will be on the six seeds of authentic leadership as espoused by Cashman (2003) and the relationship to Kamla Persad Bissessar's leadership. Her strengths and weaknesses will be examined with a view to determining whether she displays qualities of an authentic leader. Speeches, e-mails, her facebook pages and the party's manifesto for 2010 will be used as touchstones to evaluate her level of authenticity as a leader. The six seeds are: (a) the need for leaders to manifest what is in their hearts, (b) ability to embrace both the good and the bad and learn from them, (c) the leader serves the parts and the whole through value creation, (d) the leader masters the ego and moves beyond the ego, (e) the leader displays social intelligence through his or her ability to connect with others, and (f) the leader is able to find the potential in others. A discussion ensues based on the example of authentic leadership and how potential and current leaders could capitalize on becoming more people-centered leaders.
