description: Warped accretion disks have attracted intensive attention because of their critical role on shaping the spin of supermassive massive black holes (SMBHs) through the Bardeen-Petterson effect, a general relativistic effect that leads to final alignments or anti-alignments between black holes and warped accretion disks. We study such alignment processes by explicitly taking into account the finite sizes of accretion disks and the episodic lifetimes of AGNs that delineate the duration of gas fueling onto accretion disks. We employ an approximate global model to simulate the evolution of accretion disks, allowing to determine the gravitomagnetic torque that drives the alignments in a quite simple way. We then track down the evolutionary paths for mass and spin of black holes both in a single activity episode and over a series of episodes. Given with randomly and isotropically oriented gas fueling over episodes, we calculate the spin evolution with different episodic lifetimes and find that it is quite sensitive to the lifetimes. We therefore propose that spin distribution of SMBHs can place constraints on the episodic lifetimes of AGNs and vice versa. Applications of our results on the observed spin distributions of SMBHs and the observed episodic lifetimes of AGNs are discussed, although both the measurements at present are yet ambiguous to draw a firm conclusion. Our prescription can be easily incorporated into semi-analytic models for black hole growth and spin evolution.

Relations entre zonation verticale, comportement de "zone homing" et équilibre acide-base de l'hémolymphe chez Monodonta lineata (Gastéropode, Trochidé)

description: Monodonta lineata (Gastropod, Trochid) is present only at high levels of the intertidal zone. When experimentally placed at low levels, it crawls up towards its characteristic position on the seashore. Our data about the pH, PCO2 and [HCO3-] values of the haemolymph lead to the conclusion that these parameters could be used as internal signals by M. lineata in order to choose its optimal level on the seashore. lndeed, (1) relative extracellular acidosis and alkalosis are induced by emersion and submersion respectively and (2) the range of these induced disturbances is influenced by the percentage of exposure to the air (PEA) imposed on the animais: a high PEA (typical of high shore levels) induced lower disturbances than a low PEA (typical of low levels, never occupied by M. lineata in the field). We propose the following hypothesis : the haemolymph hypocapnia (Pca, around 1 torr) occurring in M. lineata during submersion, characteristic of low levels of the shore, induces a negative geotactism and/or a positive phototactism which results in the observed crawling up towards the higher levels of the intertidal zone.

Carving Mind at Brain’s Joints. The Debate on Cognitive Ontology
Creators: name: Viola, Marco
Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind
Year: 2017

description: Since neuroimaging methods allow researchers to study the human brain at work, the vexed mind-brain problem ceased to be just a metaphysical issue, and became a practical concern for Cognitive Neuroscientists: how could they carve mind and brain into distinct entities, and what is the relation between these two sets? In this paper, I discuss the classical model of one-to-one mappings between mental and neural entities, inherited from phrenology, and make its assumptions explicit. I then examine the shortcomings of this “new phrenology”, and explore two solutions to them: the first accepts many-to-many mappings, whereas the second proposes a radically rethinking of the relata of this correspondence.

description: The present study is a first contribution to the knowledge of the status and distribution of the endangered
 Mediterranean species Patella ferruginea Gmelin, 1791 and the density of individuals along the northern and eastern
 Tunisian coastline. Field work carried out from December 2005 to August 2006 revealed that the distribution of this mollusc
 is limited to the Gulf of Tunis (6 stations) and Cape Bon Peninsula (1 station). The densest populations were encountered in
 the less polluted localities (Korbous, El Haouaria, the Island of Zembra, and Kelibia). Patella ferruginea was primarily
 encountered in midintertidal rocky shores (medium horizon) in biotopes characterized by clear waters and alga-covered
 (Ralfsia verrucosa) rocky substratum which are generally hardly accessible and thus not subject to human predation. The
 Island of Zembra (National protected area) seems to host the most equilibrated and preserved population of Patella
 ferruginea. It is dominated by large specimens showing the importance of marine protected areas in the conservation of this
 endangered species. Our results argue in favor of human predation impact on the structure of Patella ferruginea populations.

Looking for Emergence in Physics
Creators: name: Rigato, Joana
Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind
Year: 2017

description: Despite its recent popularity, Emergence is still a field where philosophers and physicists often talk past each other. In fact, while philosophical discussions focus mostly on ontological emergence, physical theory is inherently limited to the epistemological level and the impossibility of its conclusions to provide direct evidence for ontological claims is often underestimated. Nevertheless, the emergentist philosopher’s case against reductionist theories of how the different levels of reality are related to each other can still gain from the assessment of paradigmatic examples of discontinuity between models in physics, even though their implications must be handled with care.

description: We consider the Standard Model with right-handed neutrinos to explain the masses of active neutrinos by the seesaw mechanism. Since active neutrinos as well as heavy neutral leptons are Majorana fermions in this case, the lepton number violating process can be induced. We discuss the inverse neutrinoless double beta decay $e^- e^- \to W^- W^-$ in the framework of the seesaw mechanism and its detectability at future colliders. It is shown that the cross section can be 17 fb for $\sqrt{s}=3$ TeV even with the stringent constraint from the neutrinoless double beta decays if three (or more) right-handed neutrinos exist. In such a case, the future $e^- e^-$ colliders can test lepton number violation mediated by a right-handed neutrino lighter than about 10 TeV.

Direct Social Perception of Emotions in Close Relations

Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind
Year: 2017

description: Drawing on a pluralist approach to mindreading, I explore Direct Social Perception with respect to perceiving the emotional states of people that we are close to, such as spouses, friends, and family. I argue that in general, emotions are embodied and can be perceived directly. I further claim that perceptual content includes concepts. That is, I argue against a non-conceptual view of emotion recognition, claiming instead that we learn emotional concepts by attending to certain expressive patterns of emotions. This view implicates that we can directly perceive both basic and non-basic emotions of people we are close to.

description: We theoretically discuss an implementation of a Sagnac interferometer with cold atoms. In contrast to currently existing schemes our protocol does not rely on any free propagation of atoms. Instead it is based on superpositions of fully confined atoms and state-dependent transport along a closed path. Using Ramsey sequences for an atomic clock, the accumulated Sagnac phase is encoded in the resulting population imbalance between two internal (clock) states. Using minimal models for the above protocol we analytically quantify limitations arising from atomic dynamics and finite temperature. We discuss an actual implementation of the interferometer with adiabatic radio-frequency potentials that is inherently robust against common mode noise as well as phase noise from the reference oscillator.

description: A highly ordered TiO2 nanotube array has been prepared on a commercial pure titanium substrate in a hydrofluoric (HF) electrolyte using DC power source through two-step anodic oxidation. The morphology, composition, wettability and surface energy of the nanotube array have been characterized by using a Field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), a Transmission electron microscope (JEM-2010) with Energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer EDX (INCA OXFORD), X-ray diffraction method, an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM), an Optical Contact Angle Measuring Device and the Owens method with two liquids. The electrochemical behaviours of anodic oxidation films with different structure have been investigated in Sodium Lactate Ringer's Injection at 37±1°C by potentiodynamic polarization curve and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The formation mechanism of the nanotube array and the advantages of two-step oxidation have been discussed according to the experimental observation and the characterized results. Meanwhile, the structural changes of nanotubes are analysed according to the results of impedance spectroscopy. Cytotoxicity testing and cell adhesion and proliferation have been studied in order to evaluate the bioactivity of the nanotube array film. The diameters of nanotubes are in the range of 120–140 nm. The nanotube surface shows better wettability and higher surface energy compared to the bare substrate. The nanotube surface exhibits a wide passivation range and good corrosion resistance. The growth of the nanotube array is the result of the combined action of the anodization and field-assisted dissolution. The nanotube array by two-step oxidation becomes more regular and orderly. Moreover, the nanotube array surface is non-toxic and favourable to cell adhesion and proliferation. Such nanotube array films are expected to have significant biomedical applications.

description: We report a test of the universality of free fall (UFF) related to spin-gravity coupling effects by comparing the gravity acceleration of the $^{87}$Rb atoms in $m_F=+1$ versus that in $m_F=-1$, where the corresponding spin orientations are opposite. A Mach-Zehnder-type atom interferometer is exploited to sequentially measure the free fall acceleration of the atoms in these two sublevels, and the resultant E$\rm{\ddot{o}}$tv$\rm{\ddot{o}}$s ratio determined by this work is ${η_S} =(-0.2\pm1.5)\times 10^{-5}$. The interferometer using atoms in $m_F=+1$ or $m_F=-1$ is highly sensitive to magnetic field inhomogeneity, which limits the current experimental precision of our UFF test. The work here provides a stepping stone for future higher precision UFF test related to different spin orientations on atomic basis.

INDIRECT MEASUREMENT OF THE BIOMASS OF NEMATODES FROM THE SUBTIDAL MEIOBENTHOS OF THE ENGLISH-CHANNEL

description: Three subtidal stations in the English Channel were used to compare biovolume techniques versus direct weighting for calculating nematode biomass : two fine-sand stations, station 1, Pierre Noire, and station 2, Bale de Seine, and a coarse-sand station, station 3, Trezen Vraz. Conformity was found between biomass values computed from Wieser's formula and direct weighting only at station 2. Mean individual dry weigth by direct weigthing was 0,45 mu g for station 1, 0,76 mu g for station 2 and 0,43 mu g for station 3. Two morphotypes appeared at the two fine-sand stations and only one at the coarse-sand station. Size spectra at station 1 showed species assemblage with density and biomass peaking at 0,5 - 1 mm. These peaks moved towards high size class at station 2. Station 3 displayed density and biomass curves cumulating at the 0,5 - 1 mm and 1 - 2 mm size classes, respectively. Nematode size and morphology being different for the three stations, mean individual biomass has thus to be determined for each individual community.
Effects of inertia on the steady-shear rheology of disordered solids

Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)

description: We study the finite-shear-rate rheology of disordered solids by means of molecular dynamics simulations in two dimensions. By systematically varying the damping magnitude $ζ$ in the low-temperature limit, we identify two well defined flow regimes, separated by a thin (temperature-dependent) crossover region. In the overdamped regime, the athermal rheology is governed by the competition between elastic forces and viscous forces, whose ratio gives the Weissenberg number $Wi= ζ\dotγ$ (up to elastic parameters); the macroscopic stress $Σ$ follows the frequently encountered Herschel-Bulkley law $Σ= Σ\_0 + k \sqrt{Wi}$, with yield stress $Σ\_0\textgreater{}0$. In the underdamped (inertial) regime, dramatic changes in the rheology are observed for low damping: the flow curve becomes non-monotonic. This change is not caused by longer-lived correlations in the particle dynamics at lower damping; instead, for weak dissipation, the sample heats up considerably due to, and in proportion to, the driving. By suitably thermostatting more or less underdamped systems, we show that their rheology only depends on their kinetic temperature and the shear rate, rescaled with Einstein's vibration frequency.

Creators: name: Negro, Niccolò

Year: 2017

description: Modern science was born when physicists started studying phenomena by recruiting mathematical explanatory frameworks. Since this appears to be the direction followed in recent studies on consciousness, philosophers have to analyze the justification of this third-person methods of explaining a phenomenon that is supposed to be entirely subjective. In this paper I argue that this kind of justification could be found in a certain interpretation of the second-person perspective and I briefly sketch how one of the most promising contemporary theory of consciousness (IIT) could fit with such an interpretation.

description: Incentive structures shape scientists' research practices. One incentive in particular, rewarding priority of publication, is hypothesized to harm scientific reliability by promoting rushed, low-quality research. Here, we develop a laboratory experiment to test whether competition affects information sampling and guessing accuracy in a game that mirrors aspects of scientific investigation. In our experiment, individuals gather data in order to guess true states of the world and face a tradeoff between guessing quickly and increasing accuracy by acquiring more information. To test whether competition affects accuracy, we compare a treatment in which individuals are rewarded for each correct guess to a treatment where individuals face the possibility of being ‘scooped’ by a competitor. In a second set of conditions, we make information acquisition contingent on solving arithmetic problems to test whether competition increases individual effort (i.e. arithmetic-problem solving speed). We find that competition causes individuals to make guesses using less information, thereby reducing their accuracy (H1a and H1b confirmed). We find no evidence that competition increases individual effort (H2, inconclusive evidence). Our experiment provides proof of concept that rewarding priority of publication can incentivize individuals to acquire less information, producing lower-quality research as a consequence.

description: This practicum is about change, business, relationships, education and leadership. Beyond Karpin Linking Education & Leadership provides an analysis of international literature on leadership, The Karpin Report (1995) and research conducted in the Northern Territory of Australia. Whilst reading this practicum you will be exposed to concepts you may not have previously encountered, statistics you may not agree with and ideas that propose what can be done immediately for the development of effective leadership. The writings question culture and cultural diversity, leadership styles and application and the appropriateness of practices currently applied. The practicum weaves threads of leadership and management with threads of learning, education and knowledge, a thinking culture and the knowledge industry. It addresses the contemporary issues of culture and gender, research approaches and difficulties as well as leadership styles and practices. The practicum is based on literature reviews, the analyses of other researchers findings as well as quantitative research conducted. Definitions are questioned by asking have you heard of derailment, what is western or westemised, what is culture, do these elements influence education and leadership: if so how? In the concluding chapter recommendations are made that will provide tangable immediate actions that can be undertaken by educators and trainers that will contribute to ensuring Australian leaders are practicing at international standards.

Empathy, Simulation, and Neuroscience: A Phenomenological Case against Simulation-Theory

Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind

description: In recent years, some simulation theorists have claimed that the discovery of mirror neurons provides empirical support for the position that mind reading is, at some basic level, simulation. The purpose of this essay is to question that claim. I begin by providing brief context for the current mind reading debate and then developing an influential simulationist account of mind reading. I then draw on the works of Edmund Husserl and Edith Stein to develop an alternative, phenomenological account. In conclusion, I offer multiple objections against simulation theory and argue that the empirical evidence mirror neurons offer us does not necessarily support the view that empathy is simulation.

description: In this article, we construct the diquark-diquark-antiquark type interpolating currents, and study the masses and pole residues of the $J^P={\frac{3}{2}}^-$ and ${\frac{5}{2}}^+$ hidden-charmed pentaquark states in details with the QCD sum rules by calculating the contributions of the vacuum condensates up to dimension-10 in the operator product expansion. In calculations, we use the formula $μ=\sqrt{M^2_{P_c}-(2{\mathbb{M}}_c)^2}$ to determine the energy scales of the QCD spectral densities. The present predictions favor assigning the $P_c(4380)$ and $P_c(4450)$ to be the ${\frac{3}{2}}^-$ and ${\frac{5}{2}}^+$ pentaquark states, respectively.

 southeastern Black Sea between June 2007 and May 2008. Fish were collected in bottom trawl catch at 20-40 m depth.
 Overall, 8 prey taxa were identified to species level. The stomach content analysis showed that this species fed usually on
 crustaceans. Mud shrimp Upogebia pusilla was the most important prey. Other preys, such as anchovy Engraulis
 encrasicholus, red mullet Mullus barbatus ponticus and harbor crab Liocarcinus depurator were eaten occasionally where-
 as horse mackerel Trachurus mediterraneus, Mediterranean shore crab Carcinus mediterraneus, brown shrimp Crangon
 crangon and clam Venus gallina were eaten in very small amounts. The non-parametric tests with rankings were applied to
 feeding data to assess season, ontogenetic or sex-related changes in diet. No difference was detected between sexes and diet
 of small and large fish, but significant differences were found between seasons.

description: Third-dose coronavirus disease 2019 vaccines are being deployed widely but their efficacy has not been assessed adequately in vulnerable older people who exhibit suboptimal responses after primary vaccination series. This observational study, which was carried out by the VIVALDI study based in England, looked at spike-specific immune responses in 341 staff and residents in long-term care facilities who received an mRNA vaccine following dual primary series vaccination with BNT162b2 or ChAdOx1. Third-dose vaccination strongly increased antibody responses with preferential relative enhancement in older people and was required to elicit neutralization of Omicron. Cellular immune responses were also enhanced with strong cross-reactive recognition of Omicron. However, antibody titers fell 21–78% within 100 d after vaccine and 27% of participants developed a breakthrough Omicron infection. These findings reveal strong immunogenicity of a third vaccine in one of the most vulnerable population groups and endorse an approach for widespread delivery across this population. Ongoing assessment will be required to determine the stability of immune protection.

Temporal variability of density and diverse shell occupancy of Diogenes pugilator on a sandy bottom of the Levantine Sea and their biometrical relationships

name: ERGEV, Mehmet Betil

Year: 2010

description: Populations of Diogenes pugilator on the sand bottom of the Eastern Mediterranean showed annual density peaks
 in winter and summer. In a two-year period, monthly biomass and abundance did not vary statistically. Biomass and
 abundance ranged from up to 3000 g ha-1 and 20000 ind ha-1 to almost absence of specimens in autumn. Densities were neg-
 atively correlated with silt content of the sediment, but not with physical parameters of water or other sedimentary characters.
 Most individuals occupied shells of three nassarid gastropod species (Nassarius gibbosulus, N. circumcinctus and N.
 mutabilis) but shells from 27 species were found to be utilized. Diversity of the shells was variable throughout the year. Total
 length of the hermit crab accounted for 73% of the total variance in the discrimination of shell partition. Total lengths spanned
 to be shorter for the crabs occupying Phorcus mutabilis and Muricopsis cristata than those inside the shells of Astraea sp.
 The shells of some species (Nassarius cuvierii, Ocinebrina aciculata, Strombus persicus and Nassarius wolffi) hosted light-
 weighed crabs with low statistical variation on the second component of the discriminant distance.

description: We demonstrate the electrical and thermal transport of layered bismuth-based sulfide EuBiS2F from 300 to 623 K. Although significant hybridization between Eu 4f and Bi 6p electrons was reported previously, the carrier transport of the compound is similar to those of F-doped LaBiS2O, at least above 300 K. The lattice thermal conductivity is lower than that of isostructural SrBiS2F, which is attributed to heavier atomic mass of Eu ions.

On Experiencing Meaning: Irreducible Cognitive Phenomenology and Sinewave Speech
Creators: name: Dorsch, John Joseph
Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind
Year: 2017

description: Upon first hearing sinewaves, all that can be discerned are beeps and whistles. But after hearing the original speech, the beeps and whistles sound like speech. The difference between these two episodes undoubtedly involves an alteration in phenomenal character. O’Callaghan (2011) argues that this alteration is non-sensory, but he leaves open the possibility of attributing it to some other source, e.g. cognition. I discuss whether the alteration in phenomenal character involved in sinewave speech provides evidence for cognitive phenomenology. I defend both the existence of cognitive phenomenology and the phenomenal contrast method, as each concerns the case presented here.

description: If magnetic frustration is most commonly known for undermining long-range order, as famously illustrated by spin liquids, the ability of matter to develop new collective mechanisms in order to fight frustration is no less fascinating, providing an avenue for the exploration and discovery of unconventional properties of matter. Here we study an ideal minimal model of such mechanisms which, incidentally, pertains to the perplexing quantum spin ice candidate Yb2Ti2O7. Specifically, we explain how thermal and quantum fluctuations, optimized by order-by-disorder selection, conspire to expand the stability region of an accidentally degenerate continuous symmetry U(1) manifold against the classical splayed ferromagnetic ground state that is displayed by the sister compound Yb2Sn2O7. The resulting competition gives rise to multiple phase transitions, in striking similitude with recent experiments on Yb2Ti2O7 [Lhotel et al., Phys. Rev. B 89 224419 (2014)]. Considering the effective Hamiltonian determined for Yb2Ti2O7, we provide, by combining a gamut of numerical techniques, compelling evidence that such multiphase competition is the long-sought missing key to understanding the intrinsic properties of this material. As a corollary, our work offers a pertinent illustration of the influence of chemical pressure in rare-earth pyrochlores.

Embodied Mind – Ensocialled Body: Navigating Bodily and Social Processes within Accounts of Human Cognitive Agency
Creators: name: Higgins, Joe
Publisher: name: Phenomenology and Mind
Year: 2017

description: There is a prevalent tension within recent cognitive scientific accounts of human selfhood in that either bodily processes or social processes are explanatorily favored at the expense of the other. This tension is elucidated by the body-social problem (Kyselo, 2014) and at its heart is ambiguity regarding the body’s role within embodied cognitive science. Drawing on a range of phenomenological and empirical insights, I propose that we can avoid the problem by embracing the concept of an ensocialled body, in which all organic bodily processes are simultaneously social processes from the perspective of human cognitive agency.

description: Similar to static systems, periodically driven systems can host a variety of topologically non-trivial phases. Unlike the case of static Hamiltonians, the topological indices of bulk Floquet bands may fail to describe the presence and robustness of edge states, prompting the search for new invariants. We develop a unified description of topological phases and their invariants in driven systems, by using scattering theory. We show that scattering matrix invariants correctly describe the topological phase, even when all bulk Floquet bands are trivial. Additionally, we use scattering theory to introduce and analyze new periodically driven phases, such as weak topological Floquet insulators, for which invariants were previously unknown. We highlight some of their similarities with static systems, including robustness to disorder, as well as some of the features unique to driven systems, showing that the weak phase may be destroyed by breaking translational symmetry not in space, but in time.

Biology, Justice and Hume’s Guillotine

Year: 2017

description: Biology and Neuroscience are addressing issues related to moral sentiments, but this does not mean that Philosophy has lost its importance in the debate. Paradoxically, the discovery that moral sentiments have evolutionary origins does not overcome the problem of “Hume’s Guillotine”. There are human characteristics which can be explained by natural selection and that are nonetheless culturally reproved. In order to choose or select which “natural” characteristics are to be promoted and which are to be discouraged, it is necessary to use a criterion that is not given by nature, although human capacities to discuss these criteria have been naturally shaped.
