Die Sedimente in der Höhlenruine von Hunas (Nördliche Frankenalb)
Creators: name: Brunnacker, Karl
Publisher: name: Geozon Science Media
Year: 1963

description: Wie früher dargelegt (K. Brunnacker 1956), sollen durch die Untersuchung von Höhlensedimenten in erster Linie folgende Probleme einer Klärung näher gebracht werden: Die Unterscheidung von warm- und kaltklimatischen Sedimenten (z. B. Sinter-Frostschutt) steht im Vordergrund der gesamten Untersuchungen. Hierbei kann auf den Grundvorstellungen von R. Lais (1941) aufgebaut werden. Doch ist dabei weiter von Bedeutung, ob es sich um dem (infolge Abwitterung laufend zurückweichenden) Eingang nahe Ablagerungen handelt, oder ob Material des Höhleninneren vorliegt. Ferner ist zu klären, ob autochthones oder infolge Einwehung bzw. Einschwemmung allochthones Material den Gesteinskörper aufbaut oder daran beteiligt ist. Schließlich sind nachträgliche Veränderungen im Sediment infolge pedogener Vorgänge einschließlich der spezifischen Art der Gesteinsverwitterung und ferner die durch evtl. auch nur kurzstreckige Umlagerung am Höhlenboden bedingten Schichtlücken bzw. -Verdoppelungen zu erfassen. Diese Fragen allein durch eine laboratoriumsmäßige Auswertung der Sedimentproben klären zu wollen ist nicht sinnvoll; es kommt vielmehr auf eine Verknüpfung der hierbei gemachten Befunde mit den am Aufschluß möglichen Beobachtungen an.

Macroscopic objects in quantum mechanics: A combinatorial approach

description: Why we do not see large macroscopic objects in entangled states? There are two ways to approach this question. The first is dynamic: the coupling of a large object to its environment cause any entanglement to decrease considerably. The second approach, which is discussed in this paper, puts the stress on the difficulty to observe a large scale entanglement. As the number of particles n grows we need an ever more precise knowledge of the state, and an ever more carefully designed experiment, in order to recognize entanglement. To develop this point we consider a family of observables, called witnesses, which are designed to detect entanglement. A witness W distinguishes all the separable (unentangled) states from some entangled states. If we normalize the witness W to satisfy |tr(Wρ)| \leq 1 for all separable states ρ, then the efficiency of W depends on the size of its maximal eigenvalue in absolute value; that is, its operator norm ||W||. It is known that there are witnesses on the space of n qbits for which ||W|| is exponential in n. However, we conjecture that for a large majority of n-qbit witnesses ||W|| \leq O(\sqrt{n logn}). Thus, in a non ideal measurement, which includes errors, the largest eigenvalue of a typical witness lies below the threshold of detection. We prove this conjecture for the family of extremal witnesses introduced by Werner and Wolf (Phys. Rev. A 64, 032112 (2001)).

Kinematics of Ultracompact HII Regions Revealed: High Spectral and Spatial Resolution Mapping of the 12.8 micron [NeII] Line in Monoceros R2

description: We present the first results of a study of the kinematics and morphology of ultracompact HII regions using a new observational technique. We used very high spatial (1.5") and spectral (3.4 km/s)resolution observations of the [NeII] line at 12.8 microns to study the ionized gas in Monoceros R2. The [NeII] emission shows an HII region with highest emission measure in a ~24" shell. Line widths are as narrow as 8 km/s at some positions. In places where the lines are complex and broader, the additional width is most likely due to overlap of narrower features along the line of sight. The global kinematics suggest that the 24" shell is expanding at ~10 km/s. However, the spectral profiles toward the southeast side of the shell are not consistent with a simple expansion picture.

description: In this article, we study the decay rates of the correlation functions for a hyperbolic system $T: M \to M$ with singularities that preserves a unique mixing SRB measure $μ$. We prove that, under some general assumptions, the correlations $ C_{n}(f,g)$ decay exponentially as $n\to \infty$ for each pair of piecewise Hölder observables $f, g\in L^p(μ)$ and for each $p>1$. As an application, we prove that the autocorrelations of the first return time functions decay exponentially for the induced maps of various billiard systems, which include the semi-dispersing billiards on a rectangle, billiards with cusps, and Bunimovich stadia (for the truncated first return time functions). These estimates of the decay rates of autocorrelations of the first return time functions for the induced maps have an essential importance in the study of the statistical properties of nonuniformly hyperbolic systems (with singularities).
title: Psychological adjustment and health related quality of life in children who have been diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia
Creators: name: Paul, Caroline
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2001

description: Objectives: This study aimed to: a) investigate children's adjustment and Health Related Quality of Life (HRQL) in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) and b) identify factors associated with, and predicting, adjustment and HRQL in children with ALL. Wallander and Varni's (1992) model of child adjustment was used as a theoretical framework. Design: A cross-sectional, within-subjects, questionnaire survey design was used. Method: Forty-four parents and 28 children participated. Parents completed questionnaires assessing child's adjustment and HRQL. A parenting stress measure, to collect data on likely predictors, and a semi-structured interview was administered to parents. Children aged 5-12 years completed a questionnaire assessing HRQL. Results: ALL was associated with poor adjustment and poor HRQL. Demographic, treatment status, child and parent characteristics and life stress were associated with adjustment and/or HRQL. Child characteristics (i.e. distractability, hyperactivity, adaptability), gender and parent characteristics were significant predictors of adjustment. Number of siblings, parental isolation and treatment status significantly predicted child-rated HRQL, while child characteristics (Le. acceptability, mood, adaptability), treatment status, age at diagnosis and life stress predicted parent-rated HRQL. Conclusion: Results suggest child characteristics, parent characteristics and treatment status, in particular, are important predictors of adjustment and HRQL in ALL. The findings are discussed in relation to previous research, methodological weaknesses and the possible role of cross informant variance. Implications for clinical research, the development of theory and future research are outlined.

description: We report the selective stabilization of chiral rotational direction of bacterial vortices, from turbulent bacterial suspension, in achiral circular microwells sealed by an oil-water interface. This broken-symmetry, originating from the intrinsic chirality of bacterial swimming near hydrodynamically different top and bottom surfaces, generates a chiral edge current of bacteria at lateral boundary and grows stronger as bacterial density increases. We demonstrate that chiral edge current favors co-rotational configurations of interacting vortices, enhancing their ordering. The interplay between the intrinsic chirality of bacteria and the geometric properties of the boundary is a key-feature for the pairing order transition of active turbulence.

title: Power line communication systems for industrial control applications
Creators: name: Morris, Kerry John
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2002

description: For almost as long as the electricity distribution industry itself has existed, so also has the idea of utilising the transmission grid, be it over a wide area or on a local basis, for the transmission of 'intelligence'. This might be in the form of voice transmissions, or for the purposes of monitoring or controlling electrical devices attached to the network. This thesis specifically concerns itself with the potential applications of power-line-carrier (PLC) communications technology within the field of industrial plant/equipment control, as it is within this field that the author works. We look at the entire subject area of industrial control, starting from a historical viewpoint, and consider the special needs and requirements that a proposed PLC solution must offer for this application, especially based on the noise conditions likely to be experienced on a `real' power line. A proposal is made for a `Power Bus', intended for use within certain areas of industrial control, and decisions are made based on the projected link response times for such applications. The experimental phase of the research is practical in nature and consists of a raft of tests and evaluations of the performance of power line modem technologies, under controlled and repeatable noise conditions. To complement these results, further tests are carried out under `real world' conditions, within an actual factory environment. Based on the results of all of these tests, the suitability of a PLC solution for this type of industrial control application is considered. The Thesis concludes with a look at recent developments in, as well as the future of, Power Line Communication techniques.

title: Physiological role of the cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) in the murine central nervous system
Creators: name: Marsicano, Giovanni
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2001

description: The cannabinoid system is involved in many functions of mammalian brain, such as learning and memory, pain perception and 'locomotion. The "brain type" cannabinoid receptor CB 1 is one of the key elements of the cannabinoid system. In this Thesis, some aspects of the neurobiology of mouse CB 1 are described. CB 1 mRNA distribution was analysed by single and double in situ hybridization (ISH), revealing the expression of the receptor in specific neuronal subpopulations. This expression pattern suggests many putative functional cross-talks between the cannabinoid system and other signalling molecules in the brain, such as glutamate, GABA, cholecystokinin and nitric oxide (NO). The putative functional interactions of the cannabinoid system with the NO pathway was studied by pharmacological treatment of neuronal NO synthase (nNOS) mutant mice with the CBI agonist A9-tetrahydrocannabinol (A9-THC). The results showed that nNOS is necessary for some central effects of A9-THC. Moreover, ISH analysis revealed. that nNOS-deficient mice contain levels of CBI lower than normal in selected brain regions. A "conditional" targeting approach was developed to gain insights into the specific functions of CB 1 in mouse brain. By gene targeting experiments, two mutant lines were obtained. The "Flox CB 1" mouse line, containing the whole open reading frame of CB I flanked by two loxP sites will be the key tool for the generation of mouse mutants with a spatiotemporal-restricted deletion of CB I. The "CBN" mice, carrying a "null" mutation of CB 1, were used for a study aimed to clarify some aspects of the in vitro neuroprotective activity of cannabinoids and, in particular, the involvement of CB 1. In vitro oxidative stress assays were performed on cell lines and on primary neuronal cultures derived from homozygous CBN/CBN mice and wild type littermates. The results indicate a differential protective activity of cannabinoids on cell lines and primary cultures. However, CBI does not appear to be involved in the in vitro leuroprotective effects of cannabinoids.

description: The aim of this paper is to evaluate and measure the economic costs of hydrated ethanol during the periods from 2004 to 2012 in the São Martinho Mill (a large Brazilian company) by the EVA® (Economic Value Added) approach. We adopted as initial conception the economic costs of hydrated ethanol towards their respective sectoral economic aspects, so as to clarify the EVA® among the levels of investment versus the capital cost employed. For this, it was applied a quantitative metric within of an exploratory approach adopted in the studies by Saito, Savoia and Angelo (2011). Results offer reflections that the São Martinho Mill is in a situation of economic value aggregation and emphasize the importance of adequacy of capital costs from the year 2012 in order to align the metric and also allow the assessment of investments and achieve economies of scale by the optimizing of the production cost, enabling the real perception of the assessment by the shareholders on an analysis of the next cycle of the EVA® performance. Results also allow us to infer the importance of parametric consideration of the capital cost, and moreover, in parallel, reinforce the need to understand the structure of the operational cost, hence the need for a new approach to the opportunity capital cost.
How many cosmological parameters?

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

description: Constraints on cosmological parameters depend on the set of parameters chosen to define the model which is compared with observational data. I use the Akaike and Bayesian information criteria to carry out cosmological model selection, in order to determine the parameter set providing the preferred fit to the data. Applying the information criteria to the current cosmological data sets indicates, for example, that spatially-flat models are statistically preferred to closed models, and that possible running of the spectral index has lower significance than inferred from its confidence limits. I also discuss some problems of statistical assessment arising from there being a large number of `candidate' cosmological parameters that can be investigated for possible cosmological implications, and argue that 95% confidence is too low a threshold to robustly identify the need for new parameters in model fitting. The best present description of cosmological data uses a scale-invariant (n=1) spectrum of gaussian adiabatic perturbations in a spatially-flat Universe, with the cosmological model requiring only five fundamental parameters to fully specify it.

description: We estimate the HI mass function (HIMF) of galaxies in groups based on thousands of ALFALFA (Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA survey) HI detections within the galaxy groups of four widely used SDSS (Sloan Digital Sky Survey) groups catalogues. Although differences between the catalogues mean that there is no one definitive group galaxy HIMF, in general we find that the low-mass slope is flat, in agreement with studies based on small samples of individual groups, and that the 'knee' mass is slightly higher than that of the global HIMF of the full ALFALFA sample. We find that the observed fraction of ALFALFA galaxies in groups is approximately 22 per cent. These group galaxies were removed from the full ALFALFA source catalogue to calculate the field HIMF using the remaining galaxies. Comparison between the field and group HIMFs reveals that group galaxies make only a small contribution to the global HIMF as most ALFALFA galaxies are in the field, but beyond the HIMF 'knee' group galaxies dominate. Finally we attempt to separate the group galaxy HIMF into bins of group halo mass, but find that too few low-mass galaxies are detected in the most massive groups to tightly constrain the slope, owing to the rarity of such groups in the nearby Universe where low-mass galaxies are detectable with existing HI surveys.

description: Context: Remote light scattering and thermal infrared observations provide clues about the physical properties of cometary and interplanetary dust particles. Identifying these properties will lead to a better understanding of the formation and evolution of the Solar System. Aims: We present a numerical solution for the radiative and conductive heat transport in a random particulate medium enclosed by an arbitrarily shaped surface. The method will be applied to study thermal properties of cometary dust particles. Methods: The recently introduced incoherent Monte Carlo radiative transfer method developed for scattering, absorption, and propagation of electromagnetic waves in dense discrete random media is extended for radiative heat transfer and thermal emission. The solution is coupled with the conductive Fourier transport equation that is solved with the finite-element method. Results: The proposed method allows the synoptic analysis of light scattering and thermal emission by large cometary dust particles consisting of submicrometer-sized grains. In particular, we show that these particles can sustain significant temperature gradients resulting in the superheating factor phase function observed for the coma of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.

description: This paper aimed to investigate the relationship between corporate governance and performance of the stocks of companies in the Brazilian electricity sector listed in Bovespa, through the indicators of beta coefficient (β) [volatility] and the Electric Power Index (EPI) [market value], considering the dynamics of the electricity market in Brazil during the U.S. crisis (subprime) in 2008/2009 and in 2010 the European crisis, and the post-crisis. We studied companies in the Brazilian electricity sector during the period 01/01/2009 to 06/30/2011 (Period 1) and 10/25/2012 to 10/31/2013 (Period 2). The results show that the market value and volatility of energy companies in Brazil were not affected during the U.S. crisis (subprime) and the European crisis. However, the post-crisis culminated in the rise in the price of the dollar and the euro, the reduction of foreign investments in Brazil and in the fall of exports, which affected negatively the stocks of the Brazilian energy companies and thus reducing the market value of these companies. Corporate governance has balanced the volatility of the energy companies stocks, since it keeps them less volatile than the market, even in periods of crisis.

description: By jagged partitions we refer to an ordered collection of non-negative integers $(n_1,n_2,..., n_m)$ with $n_m\geq p$ for some positive integer $p$, further subject to some weakly decreasing conditions that prevent them for being genuine partitions. The case analyzed in greater detail here corresponds to $p=1$ and the following conditions $n_i\geq n_{i+1}-1$ and $n_i\geq n_{i+2}$. A number of properties for the corresponding partition function are derived, including rather remarkable congruence relations. An interesting application of jagged partitions concerns the derivation of generating functions for enumerating partitions with special restrictions, a point that is illustrated with various examples.

description: We study the asymptotics of the $p$-mapping model of random mappings on $[n]$ as $n$ gets large, under a large class of asymptotic regimes for the underlying distribution $p$. We encode these random mappings in random walks which are shown to converge to a functional of the exploration process of inhomogeneous random trees, this exploration process being derived (Aldous-Miermont-Pitman 2003) from a bridge with exchangeable increments. Our setting generalizes previous results by allowing a finite number of ``attracting points'' to emerge.

Gaussian null coordinates, near-horizon geometry and conserved charges on the horizon of extremal non-dilatonic black $p$-branes

description: In this paper, we examine the emergence of conserved charges on the horizon of a particular class of extremal non-dilatonic black $p$-branes (which reduce to extremal dilatonic black holes in $D=4$ dimensions upon toroidal compactification) in the presence of a probe massless scalar field in the bulk. This result is achieved by writing the black $p$-brane geometry in a Gaussian null coordinate system which allows us to get a non-singular near-horizon geometry description. We find that the near-horizon geometry is $AdS_{p+2}\times S^2$ and that the $AdS_{p+2}$ section has an internal structure which can be seen as a warped product of $AdS_{2}\times S^{p}$ in Gaussian null coordinates. We show that the bulk scalar field satisfying the field equations is expanded in terms of non-normalizable and normalizable modes, which for certain suitable quantization conditions are well-behaved at the boundary of $AdS_{p+2}$ space. Furthermore, we show that picking the normalizable modes results in the existence of conserved quantities on the horizon. We discuss the impact of these conserved quantities in the late time regime.

Probing dark energy perturbations: the dark energy equation of state and speed of sound as measured by WMAP

Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We review the implications of having a non-trivial matter component in the universe and the potential for detecting such a component through the matter power spectrum and ISW effect. We adopt a phenomenological approach and consider the mysterious dark energy to be a cosmic fluid. It is thus fully characterized, up to linear order, by its equation of state and its speed of sound. Whereas the equation of state has been widely studied in the literature, less interest has been devoted to the speed of sound. Its observational consequences come predominantly from very large scale modes of dark matter perturbations (k < 0.01 h.Mpc^{-1}). Since these modes have hardly been probed so far by large scale galaxy surveys, we investigate whether joint constraints that can be placed on those two quantities using the recent CMB fluctuations measurements by WMAP as well as the recently measured CMB large scale structure cross-correlation. We find only a tentative 1$sigma$ detection of the speed of sound, from CMB alone, c_{s}^{2}<0.04 at this low significance level. Furthermore, the current uncertainties in bias in the matter power spectrum preclude any constraints being placed using the cross correlation of CMB with the NVSS radio survey. We believe however that improvements in bias through improved survey scales and depths in the near future will improve hopes of detecting the speed of sound.

description: O objetivo deste estudo é investigar a formação dos preços do etanol hidratado no mercado brasileiro de combustíveis. O processo metodológico envolveu a regressão linear múltipla e o Anova. Pela regressão linear múltipla, os resultados mostraram que os preços são formados através do preço pago pelo produtor e distribuidor e pelos custos de produção. Pela Anova, os resultados provaram que a região Centro-Oeste foi a única que solidificou a vantagem do uso de etanol hidratado. Nesse sentido, uma discussão extensa dos resultados permitiu considerar que a vantagem do uso de etanol hidratado na região Centro-Oeste ocorre a partir de variáveis ​​como frota, bases de distribuição, impostos, produção específica e quantificação das usinas produtoras.

description: We perform inelastic neutron scattering measurements on the molecular nanomagnet Mn_12-acetate to measure the excitation spectrum up to 45meV (500K). We isolate magnetic excitations in two groups at 5-6.5meV (60-75K) and 8-10.5meV (95-120K), with higher levels appearing only at 27meV (310K) and 31meV (360K). From a detailed characterization of the transition peaks we show that all of the low-energy modes appear to be separate S = 9 excitations above the S = 10 ground state, with the peak at 27meV (310K) corresponding to the first S = 11 excitation. We consider a general model for the four exchange interaction parameters of the molecule. The static susceptibility is computed by high-temperature series expansion and the energy spectrum, matrix elements and ground-state spin configuration by exact diagonalization. The theoretical results are matched with experimental observation by inclusion of cluster anisotropy parameters, revealing strong constraints on possible parameter sets. We conclude that only a model with dominant exchange couplings J_1 ~ J_2 ~ 5.5meV (65K) and small couplings J_3 ~ J_4 ~ 0.6meV (7K) is consistent with the experimental data.

description: This study attempted to analyze the different aspects of marketing system of vegetable and fruit in Raya Kobo and Harbu woredas, Amhara regional state using different indicators. Probit estimation for determinant of participation probability in vegetable and fruit production and OLS estimation technique were also applied for examining determinants of market supply and demand for vegetable and fruit products. Accordingly, the results showed that lack of genuine and timely market information, poor institutions and arrangements, poor marketing infrastructures (poor storage, cool chain facilities, packaging, weak pre and post harvest handling practices, non scientific grading and standard, etc), long market channel, high and unfair profit margin distribution among the value chain actors with little share to the farmers were observed in both vegetable and fruit market. These are an indicative of poor marketing efficiency and thereby suboptimal operation of the marketing system. The econometric regression result of this study exhibited almost similar results as previous studies however the determinants were not same for all sample crops (onion, tomato, mango and avocado) rather differs from crop to crop. In general, family size, total size of land, extension service, farmer’s experience, average lagged price, distance from main road and age were found to be significant factors (with expected sign) of production participation in vegetables and fruits . Similarly, average current price, distances from main road, age, total size of land, farmers’ experience, sex, number of oxen, and access to market information were found to be significant determinants of market supply of vegetables and fruits. Finally, family size, purchase frequency, amount of single purchase lot, average current price, income level, average expenditure on food and purchasing, and amount per trip were found to be significant line with expected sign as determinants of demand for vegetables and fruits in the study area. Hence, the results found in this study are clearly an indicative for taking appropriate measures in production side, market infrastructure, arrangements and institutions to improve the inefficient functioning of the marketing system. Key words: Marketing system, structure, conduct, performance, channel, margin, production participation, market supply, market demand.

description: Seit dem Mesozoikum wächst die kontinentale Kruste am aktiven Plattenrand von Kamtschatka durch Akkretion allochthoner Terrane. Dieses Wachstum manifestiert sich in der differenziellen Exhumierung und Hebung tektonischer Blöcke innerhalb des Akkretionskeils, parallel zum Kamtschatka- Graben. Die Kinematik der Exhumierung soll mittels strukturgeologischer und neotektonischer Deformationsanalyse erfasst und mit thermochronologischen Untersuchungen an Apatiten bis etwa ins Untere Pliozän quantifiziert werden.

Z' Mediated Flavor Changing Neutral Currents in B Meson Decays

description: We study the effects of an extra U(1)' gauge boson with flavor changing couplings with fermion mass eigenstates on certain B meson decays that are sensitive to such new physics contributions. In particular, we examine to what extent the current data on B_d -> ϕK, B_d -> η' K and B_s -> μ^+ μ^- decays may be explained in such models, concentrating on the example in which the flavor changing couplings are left-chiral. We find that within reasonable ranges of parameters, the Z' contribution can readily account for the anomaly in S_{ϕK_S} but is not sufficient to explain large branching ratio of B_d -> η' K with the same parameter value. S_{ϕK_S} and S_{η' K_S} are seen to be the dominant observables that constrain the extra weak phase in the model.

Saunders Creek catchment groundwater assessment

Publisher: name: Department of Water, Land and Biodiversity Conservation, Adelaide, SA
Year: 2002

description: The Saunders Creek is a tributary catchment for the River Murray which generates ephemeral flows in very wet years. Concerns have been expressed at the construction of large dams in the headwaters of the catchment, and their impacts on streamflow, and consequently recharge to aquifers. The catchment can be divided into two distinct groundwater regions: the Hills Zone and the Plains Zone. The Hills Zone comprises the consolidated basement rocks of the Mount Lofty Ranges, which form fractured rock aquifers. Borehole yields are generally low and salinities vary, apart from the western portion of the catchment where better quality water is drawn. The Plains Zone is underlain by unconsolidated sediments of the Murray Basin. The main aquifer is the Murray Group Limestone, which is utilised for domestic and stock purposes and is recharged mainly by infiltration of streamflow.
