description: We calculate quantum corrections to the entropy of four-dimensional de Sitter space induced by higher-derivative terms in the gravitational action and by one-loop effects. Employing the intertwinement in semiclassical gravity of Euclidean de Sitter and anti-de Sitter saddles, we embed effective de Sitter gravity theories in M-theory and express the entropy in terms of the regularized Euclidean anti-de Sitter action on an auxiliary $\mathrm{EAdS}_4 \times S^7/\mathbb{Z}_k$ background. We conjecture that the partition function of the holographically dual 3d ABJM CFT determines the explicit form of the corrections to the de Sitter entropy. This includes a logarithmic term, the coefficient of which, we show, agrees with an independent one-loop calculation around the $-S^4 \times S^7/\mathbb{Z}_k$ Euclidean de Sitter saddle. This provides evidence that the microscopic degrees of freedom behind the entropy of four-dimensional de Sitter space in gravitational theories with a holographic dual description are encapsulated by the path integral of the Euclidean CFT on the three-sphere.

title: Religion, and Education in Early Modern England: Archdeacon Robert Johnson and his Grammar Schools, 1575-1630
Creators: name: Harrod, Holly
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2022

description: This thesis examines the relationship between puritanism and education in England in the period between 1560 and 1630. This is achieved via a detailed study of Robert Johnson, Archdeacon of Leicester and founder of Oakham and Uppingham Schools, and his network of puritan associates. The thesis explores the relationships established by Johnson during his time at Cambridge, as well as associations developed through family connections and his employment post-university. It also examines how these connections brought him into contact with influential members of Elizabeth I’s privy council, and enabled Johnson to be openly involved in puritan activities, within Rutland and the surrounding areas, throughout the 1570s, without any significant reprisals. Case studies on four grammar schools: Oakham, Uppingham, Oundle and Stamford, provide information on the founding and running of these schools, and how they were influenced by Johnson’s network. Additionally, the thesis contains an analysis of events at St John’s, Christ’s, Sidney Sussex and Emmanuel; the four Cambridge colleges associated with Johnson’s network. There is also an assessment of the links between the four grammar schools and the four colleges, most notably examining the progression of students from the schools to these particular colleges. There is an analysis of the broader religious and political context in which the network operated, as well as the impact of a changing attitude to charitable giving. Finally, the thesis explores the religious changes in England that took place with the appointment of John Whitgift as Archbishop of Canterbury in 1583, and the impact of the death of Elizabeth I and the accession of James I in 1603.
The monotype as a distinctive form: A practice-led investigation into how the monotype can deliver affect

description: This practice-led research project investigates the monotype as a distinctive form, and one which has been hitherto somewhat under-regarded and given relatively little theoretical analysis or interpretive attention from the perspective of the studio practitioner. This research leads me to investigate distinctive formal, material and perceptual qualities of the monotype process, which are conducive to metaphoric associations appropriate to my themes of memory, space and time, through the generation of affect. Both the monotype and affect are realised in in-between spaces. The monotype emerges from exchanges that take place between iterations of drawings, painting and printing, and the images that result are influenced and transformed by these exchanges. Throughout the project I explore and analyse resonances between the qualities of the monotype and the characteristics of the concepts of phenomenology and affect. My research is informed by the writings of: Antonio Damasio and Siri Hustvedt on affect, phenomenology and memory; Brian Massumi on affect; Henri Lefebvre on space, time and rhythm; Tim Ingold on linear interconnectedness; John Berger on drawing and process; François Jullien on the Chinese tradition; the philosophy of Elizabeth Grosz, and Thomas Middlemost on the monotype in Australia. In creating several series of monotypes involving expressive and intuitive gestural imagery, and qualities of luminosity and rhythm resonant with my lived experience, I have been influenced by artists past and present. These include Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, John Constable, Paul Cezanne, Sidney Nolan, Georg Baselitz, Cy Twombly, Ken Whisson, Elisabeth Cummings, and Chinese ink and brush painters. I reflect on the qualities of immersiveness, between-ness, tactility, spontaneity and the intuitive expression of personal experience, as qualities intrinsic to the monotype, and essential to my project’s aim for the delivery of affect. I further explore the relations of composition to pictorial space, of figure to ground, distinctive to the monotype. The accompanying exegesis charts the course of my discoveries with the affectively engaging monotype as I create expressions of my lived experiences through the themes of familial relations, our relations to place and to our natural environments, and to the life of the studio. While I began with a sense of these themes as leading my project, the monotype process became, in a sense, the true subject matter of my research. While I absorbed and filtered my own bodily experiences of the world, my engagement with the monotype process became a significantly transformative one, an exploration of multiple states though the various iterations of an image, and a process of imbuing images with metaphysical resonance.
The Construction of Spinors in Geometric Algebra

description: The relationship between spinors and Clifford (or geometric) algebra has long been studied, but little consistency may be found between the various approaches. However, when spinors are defined to be elements of the even subalgebra of some real geometric algebra, the gap between algebraic, geometric, and physical methods is closed. Spinors are developed in any number of dimensions from a discussion of spin groups, followed by the specific cases of $\text{U}(1)$, $\SU(2)$, and $\text{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ spinors. The physical observables in Schrödinger-Pauli theory and Dirac theory are found, and the relationship between Dirac, Lorentz, Weyl, and Majorana spinors is made explicit. The use of a real geometric algebra, as opposed to one defined over the complex numbers, provides a simpler construction and advantages of conceptual and theoretical clarity not available in other approaches.

description: Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-empowered communications represent exciting prospects as one of the promising technologies capable of meeting the requirements of the sixth generation networks such as low-latency, reliability, and dense connectivity. However, validation of test cases and real-world experiments of RISs are imperative to their practical viability. To this end, this paper presents a physical demonstration of an RIS-assisted communication system in an indoor environment in order to enhance the coverage by increasing the received signal power. We first analyze the performance of the RIS-assisted system for a set of different locations of the receiver and observe around 10 dB improvement in the received signal power by careful RIS phase adjustments. Then, we employ an efficient codebook design for RIS configurations to adjust the RIS states on the move without feedback channels. We also investigate the impact of an efficient grouping of RIS elements, whose objective is to reduce the training time needed to find the optimal RIS configuration. In our extensive experimental measurements, we demonstrate that with the proposed grouping scheme, training time is reduced from one-half to one-eighth by sacrificing only a few dBs in received signal power.

description: The perfect fluid cosmology in the 1+d+D dimensional Kaluza-Klein spacetimes for an arbitrary barotropic equation of state $p= n ρ$ is quantized by using the Schutz's variational formalism. We make efforts in the mathematics to solve the problems in two cases. For the first case of the stiff fluid $n=1$ we exactly solve the Wheeler-DeWitt equation when the $d$ space is flat. After the superposition of the solutions we analyze the Bohmian trajectories of the final-stage wave-packet functions and show that the flat $d$ spaces and the compact $D$ spaces will eventually evolve into finite scale functions. For the second case of $n \approx 1$, we use the approximated wavefunction in the Wheeler-DeWitt equation to find the analytic forms of the final-stage wave-packet functions. After analyzing the Bohmian trajectories we show that the flat $d$ spaces will be expanding forever while the scale function of the contracting $D$ spaces would not become zero within finite time. Our investigations indicate that the quantum effect in the quantum perfect-fluid cosmology could prevent the extra compact $D$ spaces in the Kaluza-Klein theory from collapsing into a singularity or that the "crack-of-doom" singularity of the extra compact dimensions is made to occur at $t=\infty$.

description: Objectives: The aims of the study were to correlate endometriosis-associated pain, evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) scores, with serum levels of etonogestrel (ENG), levonorgestrel (LNG), CA-125 and soluble CD23 in users of the ENG implant or the 52-mg LNG-releasing intrauterine system (52 mg LNG-IUS) for up to 2 years after device placement. Methods: A randomised trial was conducted at the University of Campinas Medical School, Brazil. All participants (n = 103) had had endometriosis-associated chronic pelvic pain or dysmenorrhoea, or both, for more than 6 months. Participants were randomly assigned to use an ENG implant (experimental treatment) or a 52-mg LNG-IUS (active comparator). Follow-up was conducted 6 monthly for up to 24 months after device placement. Dysmenorrhoea and chronic pelvic pain were evaluated using a VAS and the scores were correlated with serum levels of ENG, LNG, CA-125 and soluble CD23. Results: Both progestin-only contraceptives significantly reduced VAS scores for dysmenorrhoea and chronic pelvic pain and reduced serum levels of soluble CD23 (p p p > 0.005). Conclusion: Both contraceptives improved dysmenorrhoea and chronic pelvic pain scores in women with endometriosis-associated pain and they reduced serum levels of soluble CD23; however, serum levels of CA-125 were reduced only in ENG implant users over the 24-month study period.

 A small­sized Manota.
 Male. Head. Flagellomere 4, Fig. 16B. Maxillary palpus with palpomere 3 bearing 5 apically expanded curved sensilla; palpomere 4 with parasegment. Thorax. Anepisternum setose. Anterior basalare non­setose. Preepisternum 2 setose. Laterotergite non­setose. Episternum 3 setose. Wing. Length 1.3 mm. Wing membrane dorsally with few setae at posterior margin. Sc distally of h non­setose. Possible setae indicating A1 not seen with certainty. Hypopygium (Fig. 16B). Sternite 9 large, extending posteriorly to about halfway along ventral length of gonocoxa, laterally sharply delimited, posterior margin with V­shaped notch but not distinctly separated from more posterior membranous part, which has convex margin; setae similar to adjacent ventral setae of gonocoxa. Dorsomesial margin of gonocoxa simple, in position III with broad flat megaseta and long seta, both arising from very long basal body, dorsally of these with similar large body bearing seta (position IV seta), other apical structures simple. Gonostylus elongate­oval in ventral outline, with long flattened seta at basomesial angle. Parastylar lobe present, directed obliquely anteriad, with 3 or 4 apical setae. Tegmen short and broad, subtriangular with concave sides, with indistinct lateral shoulders. Setae on sternite 10 apparently in 2 short parallel rows on each half (not clearly visible in single specimen).
Female and preimaginal stages unknown.
 Discussion
 In M. perpusilla the gonostylus is of the rather common elongate­oval type without special modifications. Among these species, M. perpusilla is unique in having a conspicuous long, flattened seta at the basomesial angle. At least on slides, the seta is spiralled, screw­like. In the apical structures of the gonocoxa, M. perpusilla resembles M. duplex in having the position III and IV megasetae/setae on very long basal bodies, the bodies being nearly as long as the setae they bear. M. perpusilla differs from M. duplex, for example, by having one of the position III setae flattened. The two species differ greatly in their parastylar lobe: in M. perpusilla it is directed anteriad, in M. duplex posteriad.

description: Using a broad systematic literature review of peer reviewed publications and grey literature, the paper summarizes the most relevant gender issues in the pig value chain of Vietnam, and the ways in which these could be addressed. Specifically, women were found to face more severe constraints than men in accessing productive resources, markets and services. They have limited access to land use rights and therefore have limited access to resources for pig production. Besides, time constraints and cultural norms hinder women from actively participating in trainings and extension activities. Several projects/programs have been undertaken to help reduce the gender gaps. Lessons learnt from successful projects indicate that approaching women farmers via the Women’s Union is an effective way to increase the active participation of women in trainings. Identifying and providing technical trainings that meet specific needs of women farmers could lead to productivity increase. Besides, it is important to facilitate collaboration and dialogue between men and women to encourage men’s support of women’s empowerment and to improve the positive impacts of project interventions.

description: We give an effective field theory derivation, based on the running of Planck brane gauge correlators, of the large logarithms that arise in the predictions for low energy gauge couplings in compactified AdS}_5 backgrounds, including the one-loop effects of bulk scalars, fermions, and gauge bosons. In contrast to the case of charged scalars coupled to Abelian gauge fields that has been considered previously in the literature, the one-loop corrections are not dominated by a single 4D Kaluza-Klein mode. Nevertheless, in the case of gauge field loops, the amplitudes can be reorganized into a leading logarithmic contribution that is identical to the running in 4D non-Abelian gauge theory, and a term which is not logarithmically enhanced and is analogous to a two-loop effect in 4D. In a warped GUT model broken by the Higgs mechanism in the bulk,we show that the matching scale that appears in the large logarithms induced by the non-Abelian gauge fields is m_{XY}^2/k where m_{XY} is the bulk mass of the XY bosons and k is the AdS curvature. This is in contrast to the UV scale in the logarithmic contributions of scalars, which is simply the bulk mass m. Our results are summarized in a set of simple rules that can be applied to compute the leading logarithmic predictions for coupling constant relations within a given warped GUT model. We present results for both bulk Higgs and boundary breaking of the GUT gauge group.

These states are transformed into the solutions of the same Hamiltonian within the spherical coordinate system. Then the spin-orbit coupling can be added in a straightforward way. The outcome is a transformation between the Elliott single particle basis and the spherical shell model space.

description: Objective: The aim of this study was to describe the use of prescribed contraceptives in Northern Ireland (NI) and how this varies with a woman’s age, the deprivation in the area in which she lives and characteristics of her general practice (GP). Method: A population-based cohort study was conducted including 560,074 females, aged 12–49 registered with a GP (2010–2016) contributing 3,255,500 woman-years of follow-up. Dispensed contraceptive prescriptions were linked to demographic details. Results: A contraceptive prescription was dispensed in 26.2% of woman-years with women aged 20–24 most likely to have a contraceptive dispensed (45.7% of woman-years). After adjusting for patient and other practice characteristics, practices in the least deprived quintile prescribed 6% more contraception than those in the most deprived quintile. The combined oral contraceptives (16.6% of woman-years) and progesterone only pill (8.0% of woman-years) were the most commonly dispensed methods. Patient and practice level characteristics were found to be related to the specific contraceptive methods dispensed which also changed during the time frame of the study. Conclusions: This is the first population-based assessment of contraceptive prescription in NI. It is useful for health service planning and to inform broader reproductive policy debates. The impact of practice area-based deprivation, above that of the woman’s residence, on contraceptive dispensing is a new finding that deserves more exploration.

Dissipation of Magnetic Flux in Primordial Gas Clouds

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We report the strength of seed magnetic flux of accretion disk surrounding the PopIII stars. The magnetic field in accretion disk might play an important role in the transport of angular momentum because of the turbulence induced by Magneto-Rotational Instability (MRI). On the other hand, since the primordial star-forming clouds contain no heavy elements and grains, they experience much different thermal history and different dissipation history of the magnetic field in the course of their gravitational contraction, from those in the present-day star-forming molecular clouds. In order to assess the magnetic field strength in the accretion disk of PopIII stars, we calculate the thermal history of the primordial collapsing clouds, and investigate the coupling of magnetic field with primordial gas. As a result, we find that the magnetic field strongly couple with primordial gas cloud throughout the collapse, i.e. the magnetic field are frozen to the gas as far as initial field strength satisfies $ B\lesssim 10^{-5}(n_{\rm H}/10^3{\rm cm^{-3}})^{0.55}{\rm G}$.

description: Slaughterhouse plays important role in pig value chain in Vietnam, not only for the functions it plays and economic added value it generates, but also for product quality relates to food safety standards that is much affected under slaughtering activity. The study is aimed to get a better understanding of structure, conduct, performance and economic viability of small scale slaughter houses in the pig value chain, and draw key implications for pig value chain development in Vietnam. Nghe An and Hung Yen are selected as study site. Data is collected from 51 small scale slaughterhouses in 18 communes. Descriptive and comparative statistics are employed with t-test for mean comparison. Results show that slaughterhouse plays multiple functions in the pig value chain, generate permanent jobs for at least 2 family labors, and provides an income of about 18 USD/working day for family labor, contributing about threefourths of total family income. Slaughtering activity generates an added value of 165 USD/one ton of live pig, accounting from 24%-44% total value added in the pig value chain. Upstream and downstream linkages of slaughterhouses in the chain are quite loose with no formal contract. The majority of small scale slaughterhouses do not meet the standards for pig slaughterhouse as required by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. The setting up as well as slaughtering practices are perceived to contribute to exposure of meat to contamination that could lead to higher incidence of salmonella in pork, a common cause of foodborne illness for consumers. Rising concerns of consumers about food safety as well as increasing level of economic integration of Vietnam are factors potentially having great impacts on economic viability of small scale slaughterhouse in Vietnam. Several recommendations for upgrading slaughterhouse are proposed accordingly.

medical product life cycle

description: The role of patient preferences is becoming progressively more important throughout the medical product life cycle (MPLC). The pharmaceutical industry, regulatory authorities, and health technology assessment (HTA) bodies and payers are placing increasing importance on the inclusion of patient preferences in medical decision- making, especially in benefit-risk (B-R) assessment. In PREFER Work Package (WP) 2.4, a total of 32 patient preference exploration (qualitative) and elicitation (quantitative) methods were identified. However, there is no comprehensive overview of how these methods compare to one another, which are most suitable for particular stages in the MPLC, or which are most appropriate for unique study design considerations. As the role of patient preference information in decision-making increases, it is vital that decision-makers are able to select the most appropriate methods suitable for their requirements. This task (WP 2.6) aims to (1) develop criteria by which to characterise and appraise 32 patient preference elicitation and exploration methods (identified in WP 2.4) and (2) to determine weights for these criteria. These criteria and evaluation scales will be used to assess the performance of the methods on these criteria in WP 2.7, generating a gap analysis for criteria performance measures that are unknown or uncertain. The best performing methods under these criteria will be tested and assessed during the empirical case studies (WP3) and simulation studies (WP 2.8).

Liouville theory and Matrix models: A Wheeler DeWitt perspective

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We analyse the connections between the Wheeler DeWitt approach for two dimensional quantum gravity and holography, focusing mainly in the case of Liouville theory coupled to $c=1$ matter. Our motivation is to understand whether some form of averaging is essential for the boundary theory, if we wish to describe the bulk quantum gravity path integral of this two dimensional example. The analysis hence, is in a spirit similar to the recent studies of Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT)-gravity. Macroscopic loop operators define the asymptotic region on which the holographic boundary dual resides. Matrix quantum mechanics (MQM) and the associated double scaled fermionic field theory on the contrary, is providing an explicit "unitary in superspace" description of the complete dynamics of such two dimensional universes with matter, including the effects of topology change. If we try to associate a Hilbert space to a single boundary dual, it seems that it cannot contain all the information present in the non-perturbative bulk quantum gravity path integral and MQM.

 Discussion
 Manota plusiochaeta is similar to M. oligochaeta but is distinguished by its gonostylus, which is much longer and which has about 10 long setae on the basal half of the mesial margin instead of only about 5. Manota plusiochaeta is also similar to M. ovata, but the latter has a setose laterotergite. For further discussion, see under M. ovata.

description: Non-minimal interactions are proven to be generated at the one-loop level in simple scalar-tensor gravity models. The John interaction from the Fab Four class is generated. The interaction affects the speed of gravitational waves in the contemporary Universe. Its role in low-energy phenomenology is discussed. Brans-Dicke-like interaction is generated in a non-minimal model. An opportunity to generate a dynamic low-energy Newton constant is addressed.

description: Recently many people discuss unconventional density waves (i.e. unconventional charge density waves (UCDW) and unconventional spin density waves (USDW)). Unlike in conventional density waves, the quasiparticle spectrum in these systems is gapless. Also these systems remain metallic. Indeed it appears that there are many candidates for UDW. The low temperature phase of alpha-(BEDT-TTF)_2KHg(SCN)_4, the antiferromagnetic phase in URu_2Si_2, the CDW in transition metal dichalcogenite NbSe_2, the pseudogap phase in high T_c cuprate superconductors, the glassy phase in organic superconductor kappa-(BEDT-TTF)_2Cu[N(CN)_2]Br. After a brief introduction on UCDW and USDW, we shall discuss some of the above systems, where we believe we have evidence for unconventional density waves.

description: The agricultural and food processing sectors have been one of major production activities in Thailand because their employment are among the largest portions in labor market. Also both sectors have a high magnitude of Leontief multipliers, showing their substantial degrees of spillovers to other industries. To examine the network of both sectors' contributions to Thai economy, this study constructed the Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) by extending the official Input-Output table of 2010. The computational technique of Structural Path Analysis (SPA) was then applied to the constructed SAM. The results generated by SPA unveiled details of supply chains connecting agricultural activity, food processing sector, employment of factors of productions and household's incomes. Specifically, based on the most detailed classifications of the official Input-Output table, the SPA results revealed and quantified the broad and in-depth details of supply chains of tapioca milling, rice milling, canning preserving of meat, drying and noodles and similar products. These outcomes would be useful for policy analysis, particularly on both the quantification of propagation mechanism influenced by production's expansion and the magnitude of contraction along the supply chain caused by unexpected negative shocks.
