The Link between Misinterpretation, Intentionality, and Mental Agency in the Natural Language Interpretation of “Fake”
Creators: name: Guerrini, Janek
Publisher: name: Rivista Italiana di Filosofia Analitica Junior
Year: 2018

description: In formal semantics of natural language, an intersective interpretation works for many adjectives: x is a French lawyer iff x ∈ {x:x is French} {x: x is a lawyer}. For those adjectives for which this does not work, like “excellent”, we still have, at worst, a subsective modification ({x: x is an excellent violinist} ⊂ {x:x is a violinist}). Neither of these applies to “fake”, whose formal interpretation is a traditional challenge. In this paper, I propose an analysis of the semantics of “fake” in which the speaker’s attribution of intentionality (derived or original) to the object or person of which she predicates fakeness is central. In fact, the boundaries between the properties that ‘fake’
modifies and those it leaves unchanged are moved in function of this attribution of intentionality. In a famous 1994 paper, Dretske argues that for something to be specifically mental it does not merely need to exhibit original intentionality. It also has to be capable of misrepresentation, i.e. be a structure having a content independent of its causes. I argue that this intuition is implicitly contained in the natural language use of “fake”.

description: Alzheimer's disease is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that accounts for up to 80% of all dementias. Characterised by deteriorations of memory and cognitive function, the key neuropathological features are accumulations of β-amyloid and hyperphosphorylated tau, as 'plaques' and 'tangles', respectively. Despite extensive study, however, the exact mechanism underlying aggregate formation in Alzheimer's disease remains elusive, as does the contribution of these aggregates to disease progression. Importantly, a recent evaluation of current Alzheimer's disease animal models suggested that rodent models are not able to fully recapitulate the pathological intricacies of the disease as it occurs in humans. Therefore, increasing attention is being paid to species that might make good alternatives to rodents for studying the molecular pathology of Alzheimer's disease. The sheep (Ovis aries) is one such species, although to date, there have been few molecular studies relating to Alzheimer's disease in sheep. Here, we investigated the Alzheimer's disease relevant histopathological characteristics of 22 sheep, using anti-β-amyloid (Abcam 12267 and mOC64) and phosphorylation specific anti-tau (AT8 and S396) antibodies. We identified numerous intraneuronal aggregates of both β-amyloid and tau that are consistent with early Alzheimer's disease-like pathology. We confirmed the expression of two 3-repeat (1N3R, 2N3R) and two 4-repeat (1N4R, 2N4R) tau isoforms in the ovine brain, which result from the alternative splicing of two tau exons. Finally, we investigated the phosphorylation status of the serine396 residue in 30 sheep, and report that the phosphorylation of this residue begins in sheep aged as young as 2 years. Together, these data show that sheep exhibit naturally occurring β-amyloid and tau pathologies, that reflect those that occur in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. This is an important step towards the validation of the sheep as a feasible large animal species in which to model Alzheimer's disease.
Temporal Subitizing and Temporal Counting: a Proposal between Vision and Action

description: How is our temporal experience possible? When we hear a song, we are aware that every note is before and after another note (and that’s how we remember it), but we also ’experience-as-present’ more than one note at a time. To answer this question, I suggest an analogy with the diﬀerence drawn, in the spatial case, between the two diﬀerent mechanisms of counting and ’subitizing’ (the immediate visual capture of a certain number of items as a single object). My proposal is to identify two diﬀerent mechanisms even in the temporal case: a temporal counting, a coconscious experiential ’single look’ of a temporal interval; and a temporal subitizing, an atomic storing operation which organizes every event in a mathematical, point-like sequence. These two mechanisms are taken to be operative always and together; we never cease to store the events encountered in a temporal line, but we also experience a subgroup of them as present.

Thermodynamic cycle in a cavity optomechanical system
Creators: name: Ian, Hou
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A cavity optomechanical system is initiated by a radiation pressure of a cavity field onto a mirror element acting as a quantum resonator. This radiation pressure can control the thermodynamic character of the mirror to some extent, such as cooling its effective temperature. Here we show that by properly engineering the spectral density of a thermal heat bath that interacts with a quantum system, the evolution of the quantum system can be effectively turned on and off. Inside a cavity optomechanical system, when the heat bath is realized by a multi-mode oscillator modeling of the mirror, this on-off effect translates to infusion or extraction of heat energy in and out of the cavity field, facilitating a four-stroke thermodynamic cycle.
Determinismo causale e responsabilità morale: un approccio  semicompatibilista

Year: 2018

description: Questo articolo si propone di analizzare il recente sforzo teorico di J.M. Fischer in merito alla compatibilità del determinismo causale con la responsabilità morale. Dopo l’analisi concettuale dei termini fondamentali della discussione contemporanea sul determinismo e la libertà del volere, metterò in luce l’originalità della teoria di Fischer basata sulla difesa del semicompatibilismo. Secondo tale prospettiva teorica è possibile essere responsabili del proprio agire anche nel caso in cui la verità del determinismo causale dovesse eliminare la presenza di possibilità alternative. Per sostenere questa tesi farò riferimento alla nozione di controllo (Fischer e Ravizza 1998) unitamente alla presentazione del controesempio elaborato da Frankfurt (1969) sulla non necessità di poter fare altrimenti per essere ritenuti responsabili del proprio agire.

Inﬁne, dopo aver aﬀrontato alcune critiche agli esperimenti mentali elaborati a partire da quelli di Frankfurt, mi concentrerò sugli attacchi diretti alla compatibilità fra responsabilità e determinismo, vale a dire sulle critiche che pur non rifacendosi alla necessità della possibilità di fare altrimenti cercano di mettere in discussione la compatibilità fra responsabilità morale e determinismo causale.

description: A Lie algebraic method for propagation of the Wigner quasi-distribution function under quadratic Hamiltonian was presented by Zoubi and Ben-Aryeh. We show that the same method can be used in order to propagate a rather general class of quasi distribution functions, which we call "Gaussian class". This class contains as special cases the well-known Wigner, Husimi, Glauber and Kirkwood-Rihaczek quasi-distribution functions. We present some examples of the calculation of the time-evolution of those functions.

description: Cellular automata have been useful artificial models for exploring how relatively simple rules combined with spatial memory can give rise to complex emergent patterns. Moreover, studying the dynamics of how rules emerge under artificial selection for function has recently become a powerful tool for understanding how evolution can innovate within its genetic rule space. However, conventional cellular automata lack the kind of state feedback that is surely present in natural evolving systems. Each new generation of a population leaves an indelible mark on its environment and thus affects the selective pressures that shape future generations of that population. To model this phenomenon, we have augmented traditional cellular automata with state-dependent feedback. Rather than generating automata executions from an initial condition and a static rule, we introduce mappings which generate iteration rules from the cellular automaton itself. We show that these new automata contain disconnected regions which locally act like conventional automata, thus encapsulating multiple functions into one structure. Consequently, we have provided a new model for processes like cell differentiation. Finally, by studying the size of these regions, we provide additional evidence that the dynamics of self-reference may be critical to understanding the evolution of natural language. In particular, the rules of elementary cellular automata appear to be distributed in the same way as words in the corpus of a natural language.

description: The Large Observatory For X-ray Timing (LOFT) is one of the candidate missions selected by the European Space Agency for an initial assessment phase in the Cosmic Vision programme. It is proposed for the M3 launch slot and has broad scientific goals related to fast timing of astrophysical X-ray sources. LOFT will carry the Large Area Detector (LAD), as one of the two core science instruments, necessary to achieve the challenging objectives of the project. LAD is a collimated detector working in the energy range 2-50 keV with an effective area of approximately 10 m^2 at 8 keV. The instrument comprises an array of modules located on deployable panels. Lead-glass microchannel plate (MCP) collimators are located in front of the large-area Silicon Drift Detectors (SDD) to reduce the background contamination from off-axis resolved point sources and from the diffuse X-ray background. The inner walls of the microchannel plate pores reflect grazing incidence X-ray photons with a probability that depends on energy. In this paper, we present a study performed with an ad-hoc simulator of the effects of this capillary reflectivity on the overall instrument performance. The reflectivity is derived from a limited set of laboratory measurements, used to constrain the model. The measurements were taken using a prototype collimator whose thickness is similar to that adopted in the current baseline design proposed for the LAD. We find that the experimentally measured level of reflectivity of the pore inner walls enhances the off-axis transmission at low energies, producing an almost flat-top response. The resulting background increase due to the diffuse cosmic X-ray emission and sources within the field of view does not degrade the instrument sensitivity.

description: Using the IRAM 30-m telescope, CN and CO isotopologues have been measured toward the central regions of the nearby starburst galaxy NGC253 and the prototypical ultraluminous infrared galaxy Mrk231. In NGC253, the 12C/13C ratio is 40+-10. Assuming that the ratio also holds for the CO emitting gas, this yields 16O/18O = 145+-36 and 16O/17O = 1290+-365 and a 32S/34S ratio close to that measured for the local interstellar medium (20-25). No indication for vibrationally excited CN is found. Peak line intensity ratios between NGC253 and Mrk231 are ~100 for 12C16O and 12C18O J=1-0, while the ratio for 13C16O J=1-0 is ~250. This and similar 13CO and C18O line intensities in the J=1-0 and 2-1 transitions of Mrk231 suggest 12C/13C ~ 100 and 16O/18O ~ 100, in agreement with values obtained for the less evolved ultraluminous merger Arp220. Also accounting for other extragalactic data, 12C/13C ratios appear to vary over a full order of magnitude, from >100 in ultraluminous high redshift galaxies to ~100 in more local such galaxies to ~40 in weaker starbursts not undergoing a large scale merger to 25 in the Central Molecular Zone of the Milky Way. With 12C being predominantly synthesized in massive stars, while 13C is mostly ejected by longer lived lower mass stars at later times, this is qualitatively consistent with our results of decreasing carbon isotope ratios with time and rising metallicity. It is emphasized, however, that both infall of poorly processed material, initiating a nuclear starburst, as well as the ejecta from newly formed massive stars (in particular in case of a top-heavy stellar initial mass function) can raise the carbon isotope ratio for a limited amount of time.

description: With the ban of methyl bromide and the many problems associated with the use of other synthetic chemicals, current research have focused on non-chemical alternatives and integrated pest management approach for the control of stored product insect pests. Mating disruption is one technique being investigated for its effect on stored product insects. In this study, we determined the effect of age at mating on the reproductive rate and longevity of the cigarette beetle, Lasioderma serricorne (Coleoptera: Anobiidae). We disrupted the mating approach by delaying the insects from mating for different time periods in days. Same age virgin male and female cigarette beetles were paired to mate soon after emergence (0 d old), or delayed from mating for 1–14 d. In another experiment, we maintained the age of the male at 0 d old and varied the age of the female from 0– 14 d old and vice versa. Insects were observed daily for longevity and F1 progeny was recorded 7–10 weeks after mating pairs were put together. Progeny production generally decreased with age of adults at mating. The number of F1 progeny produced by same age adults varied from 10 per female to 59 per female. Similarly, the number of progeny decreased the longer one sex was delayed from mating. Findings from this study may provide information for the development of mating disruption techniques that can delay mating and may be effective in keeping populations of L. serricorne below levels that would warrant a control action.

description: Behavioral responses to semiochemicals by Trogoderma (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) stored product pests were assayed in a small arena. Hexane extracts were obtained from Khapra beetle, Trogoderma granarium, warehouse beetle, Trogoderma variable, and the larger cabinet beetle Trogoderma inclusum that were killed by being frozen for 48 hours at -20° C. These extracts were analyzed using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS), and it was confirmed that they contain several cuticular hydrocarbons, fatty acids and sterols. Two choice experiments were performed inside Petri dish arenas, with filter paper fully covering the bottom surfaces. Two smaller 3cm filter papers were placed on opposite ends within each arena. Each of the smaller papers were folded three times in parallel to present a corrugated surface that the insects could move underneath if they chose. In each case, one paper had a 100µl aliquot of one of the extracts, and the other 100µl of hexane as a control. 10 late instar larvae of the same species as the treatment extract were placed in the arena and allowed to acclimate overnight in a dark room. For all three species, it was found that larvae were more likely to be found on the side of the Petri dish with the hexane control rather than the conspecific larval extract. They were also more likely to be on or near the smaller corrugated filter paper treated with the control as opposed to the filter paper treated with the larval extract. Thus repellency of the conspecific extract was demonstrated at that particular dose. Further assays using different doses of the raw extracts and their individual chemical components are planned. The use of these semiochemicals in novel management strategies will be considered.

description: Necrobia rufipes is a cosmopolitan pest, causing considerable damage to stored commodities such as copra (dried coconut), cheese, dried fish, ham. The present study was undertaken to investigate the occurrence of these insects on pet store chain in Europe. In the last year N. rufipes was found associated with pet food, especially in Mediterranean countries, causing considerable economic damage and loss of product. The causes of such sudden diffusion are not known but some considerations are reported. Future studies will be needed to collect data on development on pet food and on the possibility to monitor N. rufipes in wharehouses and pet stores.?

description: A simple result for the pressure of a hard sphere fluid that was developed many years ago by Rennert is extended in a straightforward manner by adding the terms that are of the same form as the Rennert's formula. The resulting expression is moderately accurate but its accuracy does not necessarily improve as additional terms are included. This expression has the interesting consequence that the pressure can have a maximum, as the density increases, which is consistent with the freezing of hard spheres. This occurs solely as a consequence of repulsive interactions. Only the Born-Green-Yvon and Kirkwood theories show such a behavior for hard spheres and they require a numerical solution of an integral equation. The procedure outlined here is ad hoc but is, perhaps, useful just as the popular Carnahan-Starling equation for the hard sphere pressure is also ad hoc but useful.

description: A new version of the improved quantum molecular dynamics model has been developed to include standard Skyrme interactions. Four commonly used Skyrme parameter sets, SLy4, SkI2, SkM* and Gs are adopted in the transport model code to calculate the isospin diffusion observables as well as single and double ratios of transverse emitted nucleons. While isospin diffusion observables are sensitive to the symmetry energy term, they are not very sensitive to the nucleon effective mass splitting parameters in the interactions. Our calculations show that the high energy neutrons and protons and their ratios from reactions at different incident energies provide a robust observable to study the momentum dependence of the nucleon effective mass splitting. However the sensitivity of effective mass splitting effect on the n/p yield ratios decreases with increasing beam energy, even though high energy proton and neutron are produced more abundantly at high beam energy. Our calculations show that the optimum incident energy to study nucleon effective masses is between 100-200 MeV per nucleon.

description: Monitoring of Tribolium castaneum, the red flour beetle, involves the use of aggregation pheromone 4,8- dimethyldecanal (4,8 DMD) and kairomones such as cereal oils. Despite their present use, certain information which maximizes the efficacy of these compounds is still lacking. These experiments tested the effects of distance from the pheromone and edible oils on the orientation of T. castaneum adults. The movement of adults toward the aggregation pheromone was determined by changing the distance from the pheromone or the air flow. The adults released inside a glass apparatus tested their orientation either toward the food oils or the empty vial. The maximum trap catch was recorded at distances up to 60 cm from the pheromone and with the presence of air flow. The oils having botanical origin successfully attracted adults than those of animal origin. It is concluded that the orientation of T. castaneum adults varies with the distance from pheromone, air flow and the nature of food oil.

description: The scotogenic model is one of the simplest scenarios for physics beyond the Standard Model that can account for neutrino masses and dark matter at the TeV scale. It contains another scalar doublet and three additional singlet fermions (N_i), all odd under a Z_2 symmetry. In this paper, we examine the possibility that the dark matter candidate, N_1, does not reach thermal equilibrium in the early Universe so that it behaves as a Feebly Interacting Massive Particle (FIMP). In that case, it is found that the freeze-in production of dark matter is entirely dominated by the decays of the odd scalars. We compute the resulting dark matter abundance and study its dependence with the parameters of the model. The freeze-in mechanism is shown to be able to account for the observed relic density over a wide range of dark matter masses, from the keV to the TeV scale. In addition to freeze-in, the N_1 relic density receives a further contribution from the late decay of the next-to-lightest odd particle, which we also analyze. Finally, we consider the possibility that the dark matter particle is a WIMP but receives an extra contribution to its relic density from the decay of the FIMP (N_1). In this case, important signals at direct and indirect detection experiments are generally expected.

description: The red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum Herbst (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) is a significant pest affecting a wide variety of different stored products around the Globe. Despite its economic impact, there is evidence that the lures currently used in traps to monitor for this species are largely ineffective. Based on the evolutionary history of T. castaneum, and the ecological niche it occupies, the volatiles of wheat germ oil and volatiles produced by grain-associated fungi have the potential to act as attractants for this species. We used electroantennography (EAG) to measure the electrophysiological response elicited by sixty-eight volatile compounds found in wheat germ oil and/or grain-associated fungi in two T. castaneum strains; an established lab population (CTC12 strain) and a recently caught wild population. Many volatile compounds from both sources elicited strong antennal depolarisations, and the responses of both strains were highly correlated. We then tested whether the compounds that triggered the strongest antennal depolarisations also elicited behavioural responses by using Y-tube olfactometer bioassays and identified several compounds attractive to both strains. The discovery of novel compounds that elicit strong EAG signals and behavioural responses could prove useful in the design of improved lures for T. castaneum and other stored product pests. Our future research will identify how effective these attractive volatiles might be when used in combination, and when used under conditions that more closely replicate a stored product environment.

description: We consider the problem of distinguishing classical (Erdős-Rényi) percolation from explosive (Achlioptas) percolation, under noise. A statistical model of percolation is constructed allowing for the birth and death of edges as well as the presence of noise in the observations. This graph-valued stochastic process is composed of a latent and an observed non-stationary process, where the observed graph process is corrupted by Type I and Type II errors. This produces a hidden Markov graph model. We show that for certain choices of parameters controlling the noise, the classical (ER) percolation is visually indistinguishable from the explosive (Achlioptas) percolation model. In this setting, we compare two different criteria for discriminating between these two percolation models, based on a quantile difference (QD) of the first component's size and on the maximal size of the second largest component. We show through data simulations that this second criterion outperforms the QD of the first component's size, in terms of discriminatory power. The maximal size of the second component therefore provides a useful statistic for distinguishing between the ER and Achlioptas models of percolation, under physically motivated conditions for the birth and death of edges, and under noise. The potential application of the proposed criteria for percolation detection in clinical neuroscience is also discussed.

description: Rutile CrO2 is the most important half-metallic material with nearly 100% spin polarization at the Fermi level, and rutile TiO2 is a wide-gap semiconductor with many applications. Here we show through first-principles investigation that a single-unit-cell CrO2 layer on rutile TiO2 (001) surface is ferromagnetic and semiconductive with a gap of 0.54 eV, and its electronic state transits abruptly to a typical metallic state when an electrical field is applied. Consequently, this makes an interesting electrical switching effect which may be useful in designing spintronic devices.

title: The potential of host-specific volatiles from Tribolium confusum larval faeces for luring the ectoparasitoid Holepyris sylvanidis

description: The ectoparasitoid Holepyris sylvanidis (Bethylidae) attacks larvae of different stored product pest beetles. Previous studies on the olfactory host search of H. sylvanidis revealed that female parasitoids are strongly attracted to volatiles released from Tribolium confusum larval faeces, in particular to (E)-2-nonenal and 1-pentadecene. We suggested that these host-specific key compounds may serve the parasitoid as long-range attractants for host location. In this context, we propose that the attractive volatile blend could be used to establish a new approach within the biological control of stored product pests by guiding the parasitoid to its host and thus, increasing the host finding success. We investigated the potential of the identified host-indicating volatile cues to attract H. sylvanidis from a distance by offering the two key compounds to female parasitoids. Their walking behaviour and the covered distance were analysed on a Kramer sphere. Moreover, in semi-field trials both attractive volatiles were loaded onto rubber septa which were placed next to 4th instars of T. confusum at 1.5 m distance from the parasitoids. We studied the host finding success of H. sylvanidis by (i) measuring the mean time to locate and parasitise T. confusum larvae and (ii) counting the number of parasitised and unparasitised host larvae as well as the number of newly hatched parasitoids compared to the control without additional olfactory cues. First results showed that H. sylvanidis females can locate the provided host larvae from a distance. Parasitistion of host larvae started four days after the release of parasitoids. No effect of the additionally offered hostspecific key volatiles ((E)-2-nonenal and 1-pentadecene) on the parasitoid´s host finding success was observed at the given conditions and used amounts of compounds. Further studies are required to determine the right odour blend and concentrations for attraction of parasitoids over a distance and finally to show that the addition of host-derived kairomones may support the host finding success of H. sylvanidis.

description: The tropical warehouse moth Ephestia cautella is a major pest of stored products in Sri Lanka, and difficult to control using currently-available insecticides. The sex pheromone (Z, E)-9, 12- tetradecadienyl acetate (ZETA) emitted by the females attracts males of this species. Hence it can potentially be used in the management programs but the limited information on pheromone concentration and air movement impede the potential use of this pheromone in pest management programs. This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of ZETA concentration and air movement on the mating disruption of E. cautella. The male and female moths of E. cautella were introduced into a cubicle in which ZETA was placed at different concentrations. Later, the female moths were dissected to determine the presence/absence of spermatophore. All the pheromone concentrations tested recorded lower mating percentages than the hexane control. Mating disruption varied with the pheromone concentration and the availability of air flow. This study reveals that ZETA can be used to disrupt mating in E. cautella.

description: Quality of interaction can enhance or constrain students’ mathematical learning opportunities. However, quantitative video studies have measured the quality of interaction with very heterogeneous conceptualizations and operationalizations. This project sought to disentangle typical methodological choices to assess interaction quality in six quality dimensions, each of them in task-based, move-based, and practice-based operationalizations. The empirical part of the study compared different conceptualizations with their corresponding operationalizations and used them to code video data from middle school students (n = 210) organized into 49 small groups who worked on the same curriculum materials. The analysis revealed that different conceptualizations and operationalizations led to substantially different findings, so their distinction turned out to be of high methodological relevance. These results highlight the importance of making methodological choices explicit and call for a stronger academic discourse on how to conceptualize and operationalize interaction quality in video studies.

description: We theoretically investigate the evaporative cooling of cold rubidium atoms that are brought close to a solid surface. The dynamics of the atom cloud are described by coupling a dissipative Gross-Pitaevskii equation for the condensate with a quantum Boltzmann description of the thermal cloud (the Zaremba-Nikuni-Griffin method). We have also performed experiments to allow for a detailed comparison with this model and find that it can capture the key physics of this system provided the full collisional dynamics of the thermal cloud are included. In addition, we suggest how to optimize surface cooling to obtain the purest and largest condensates.
