description: We demonstrate a probabilistic entangling quantum gate between two distant trapped ytterbium ions. The gate is implemented between the hyperfine "clock" state atomic qubits and mediated by the interference of two emitted photons carrying frequency encoded qubits. Heralded by the coincidence detection of these two photons, the gate has an average fidelity of 90+-2%. This entangling gate together with single qubit operations is sufficient to generate large entangled cluster states for scalable quantum computing.

description: The Casimir repulsion between a metal and a dielectric suspended in a liquid has been thoroughly studied in recent experiments. In the present paper we consider surface modes in three layered systems modeled by dielectric functions guaranteeing repulsion. It is shown that surface modes play a decisive role in this phenomenon at short separations. For a toy plasma model we find the contribution of the surface modes at all distances.

The Scattering of Electromagnetic Waves from Two-Dimensional Randomly Rough Penetrable Surfaces

description: An accurate and efficient numerical simulation approach to electromagnetic wave scattering from two-dimensional, randomly rough, penetrable surfaces is presented. The use of the Müller equations and an impedance boundary condition for a two-dimensional rough surface yields a pair of coupled two-dimensional integral equations for the sources on the surface in terms of which the scattered field is expressed through the Franz formulas. By this approach, we calculate the full angular intensity distribution of the scattered field that is due to a finite incident beam of $p$-polarized light. We specifically check the energy conservation (unitarity) of our simulations (for the non-absorbing case). Only after a detailed numerical treatment of {\em both} diagonal and close-to-diagonal matrix elements is the unitarity condition found to be well-satisfied for the non-absorbing case (${\mathcal U}>0.995$), a result that testifies to the accuracy of our approach.

description: Formative assessment is recognized as an important component of teacher's classroom assessment strategies; recent research has pointed to peer and self-assessment as a way to operationalize the principles of formative assessment. The purpose of this study was to explore the nature and frequency of high school teacher's use of peer and self-assessment. The results indicate that many teachers find peer and self-assessment useful and that there is potential for greater classroom applicability but that more research is needed to guide wide spread use of these assessment strategies.

description: Observational facilities allow now the detection of optical and IR spectra of young M- and L-dwarfs. This enables empirical comparisons with old M- and L- dwarfs, and detailed studies in comparison with synthetic spectra. While classical stellar atmosphere physics seems perfectly appropriate for old M-dwarfs, more physical and chemical processes, cloud formation in particular, needs to be modelled in the substellar regime to allow a detailed spectral interpretation. Not much is known so far about the details of the inset of cloud formation at the spectral transition region between M and L dwarfs. Furthermore there is observational evidence for diversity in the dust properties of objects having the same spectral type. Do we understand these differences? The question is also how young M- and L-dwarfs need to be classified, which stellar parameter do they have and whether degenerations in the stellar parameter space due to the changing atmosphere physics are present, like in the L-T transition region. The Splinter was driven by these questions which we will use to encourage interactions between observation and theory. Given the recent advances, both in observations and spectral modelling, an intensive discussion between observers and theoreticians will create new synergies in our field.

title: Recency Effect in College Student Course Evaluations

Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2005

description: Universities depend on faculty evaluations to substantiate tenure and promotion decisions and it is well known that student ratings are a critical source of information for this process. Of recent concern in course evaluations is recency effect, a rating error that occurs when more weight is assigned to activities that are closer to the time of formal appraisal.  Quantitative procedures used in this study revealed that students who were either trained in recency effect and kept a course diary or kept a course diary only were sensitive to this type of error on a measure of teaching skill, but not course organization. Qualitative procedures also revealed that students were aware of recency effect once it was defined.  Accessed 22,308 times on https://pareonline.net from June 15, 2005 to December 31, 2019.

description: HEMAS-DPM is a Monte Carlo for the simulation of very high energy cosmic ray showers, which includes the DPMJET-II code based on the two component Dual Parton Model. DPMJET-II provides also charm production in agreement with data and, for p⊥ exceeding 5 GeV/c, with perturbative QCD results in proton-proton interactions. In this respect, a new scheme has been considered for the inclusive production of D mesons at large p⊥ in hadronic collisions in the framework of perturbative fragmentation functions, allowing an analysis at the Next to Leading Order (NLO) level which goes beyond the fixed I(αs3) perturbative theory of open charm production. We have applied HEMAS-DPM to the calculation of the prompt muon component for Eμ ≥ 1 TeV in air showers considering the two extreme cases of primary protons and Fe nuclei.

description: A short history of the electronic data processing development in North America is given. The basic principles of computers and data processing systems are analysed and a brief description of ALWAC III-E and IBM 1620 computers is provided. Sufficient information is given to acquaint professional foresters or research workers in forestry with the basic knowledge required to understand where and how computing can be applied in their work. The major factors that govern how and when to use a computer are: required speed and accuracy, size, repetitiveness, and complexity of the calculation. It is pointed out that the advantages of an electronic computer are: speed, accuracy, versatility, reliability and memory. The disadvantages are: high rental cost, extra cost for transposing data on cards or tape, and complicated program writing. In forestry the main fields of electronic computer applications are: Management Mensuration Utilization Logging engineering Research Examples are presented for each field in the text, typical programs are appended, and sources of further information are noted. It is concluded that in the future the importance of electronic computers will increase in forestry practices; however, it will remain only a tool and cannot replace the forester.

Because of the nature of irregular morphology in vessels and organs, both phantom and real inpainting scenarios were tested using our new algorithm. Successful vessel recoveries are demonstrated with numerical estimation of the degree of arteriosclerosis and vessel occlusion.

description: The “Greene Method” of calculating school “graduation rates” and the Manhattan Institute (MI) criticisms of official graduation and completion statistics are outlined and scrutinized.  The methodology fails to recognize the complexity of the issue and appears to ignore the considerable efforts that have been undertaken by education statisticians to remediate the problems inherent to these types of data. The Greene method for calculating completion ratios is simulated and found to have little to no reliability.  It is recommended that anyone intent on reporting valid and reliable education indicators avoid use of the Greene Method.

description: COVID-19 is caused by an airborne virus, SARS-CoV-2. The upper respiratory tract (URT) is, therefore, the first system to endure the attack. Inhabited by an assemblage of microbial communities, a healthy URT wards off the invasion. However, once invaded, it becomes destabilised, which could be crucial to the establishment and progression of the infection. We examined 696 URT samples collected from 285 COVID-19 patients at three time-points throughout their hospital stay and 100 URT samples from 100 healthy controls. We used 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing to evaluate the abundance of various bacterial taxa, ⍺-diversity, and β-diversity of the URT microbiome. Ordinary least squares regression was used to establish associations between the variables, with age, sex, and antibiotics as covariates. The URT microbiome in the COVID-19 patients was distinctively different from that of healthy controls. In COVID-19 patients, the abundance of 16 genera was significantly reduced. A total of 47 genera were specific to patients, whereas only 2 were unique to controls. The URT samples collected at admission differed more from the control than from the samples collected at later stages of treatment. The following four genera originally depleted in the patients grew significantly by the end of treatment: Fusobacterium, Haemophilus, Neisseria, and Stenotrophomonas. Our findings strongly suggest that SARS-CoV-2 caused significant changes in the URT microbiome, including the emergence of numerous atypical taxa. These findings may indicate increased instability of the URT microbiome in COVID-19 patients. In the course of the treatment, the microbial composition of the URT of COVID-19 patients tended toward that of controls. These microbial changes may be interpreted as markers of recovery.

description: Several pieces of legislation, most recently No Child Left Behind, hinge on effective assessment of students with disabilities.  Mandated inclusion and mandated accountability for progress raises many interesting questions regarding how to fairly, effectively, and validly perform assessments on students with disabilities. The purpose of this article is to summarize and discuss current research on extended time testing, particularly the implications of ETTA for assessment.  Research indicates that in regard to students with learning disabilities practitioners and researchers need (a) to find ways to provide realistic, not inflated, estimates of a student’s ability, (b) to determine if test instruments are suitable for use with students with learning disabilities, (c) to consider whether students with learning disabilities were included in the normative and validation samples, (d) to know that scores from accommodated assessments should be tentative, and (e) to weigh whether scores from assessments that are not validated are more useful than information available from other sources.

Scalar sigma meson effects in rho and omega decays

description: The complementarity between Chiral Perturbation Theory and the Linear Sigma Model in the scalar channel is exploited to study pi^0 pi^0 production in rho and omega  radiative decays, where the effects of a low mass scalar resonance sigma (500)should manifest. The recently re-ported data on  rho to  pi^0 ;pi^0 gamma seem to require the contribution of a low mass and moderately narrow sigma(500). The properties of this controversial state could be fixed by improving the accuracy of these measurements. Data on omega to  pi^0 pi^0 gamma  can also be accommodated in our framework, but are much less sensitive to the sigma(500) properties.

description: Association schemes were originally introduced by Bose and his co-workers in the design of statistical experiments. Since that point of inception, the concept has proved useful in the study of group actions, in algebraic graph theory, in algebraic coding theory, and in areas as far afield as knot theory and numerical integration. This branch of the theory, viewed in this collection of surveys as the "commutative case," has seen significant activity in the last few decades. The goal of the present survey is to discuss the most important new developments in several directions, including Gelfand pairs, cometric association schemes, Delsarte Theory, spin models and the semidefinite programming technique. The narrative follows a thread through this list of topics, this being the contrast between combinatorial symmetry and group-theoretic symmetry, culminating in Schrijver's SDP bound for binary codes (based on group actions) and its connection to the Terwilliger algebra (based on combinatorial symmetry). We propose this new role of the Terwilliger algebra in Delsarte Theory as a central topic for future work.

description: A  spin-parity analysis of a sample of p ̅p→ K^+ K^- π^+ π^- π^0 annihilation events taken at rest in gaseous H_{2} at NTP is reported. The invariant mass spectrum of the K^+ K^- π^0 system shows the presence of the E/iota resonance pattern at 1.42 GeV. The analysis of this signal confirms the results obtained by the OBELIX Collaboration in previous works, namely: the existence of two pseudoscalar states at 1.413±0.002 and 1.460 ± 0.012 GeV with widths 0.051 ±0.004 and 0.120 ± 0.015 GeV, respectively. The p ̅p system in the ^{3}P_{1} wave shows also a signal corresponding to the axial vector f_{1}(1420) decaying to K^{*}{K}  with mass 1.420 ± 0.003 GeV and width 0.061±0.005 GeV. A study of the incoherent phase space background shows that its origin is mostly due to the reflection  of a resonant state in the K^+ K^- π^+ π^-  system. The isobar decomposition of this resonant state is mainly f_{0}(1370)(ππ)_{S}, its parameters are: J^{PC} = 0^{++}, m = 1.670 ±  0.02 GeV and  width 0.267±0.036 GeV. This signal can be probably identified with another decay  mode of the  f_{0}(1710).

description: These are the slides that accompanied a presentation delivered at the ICS Sunoikisis Seminar on Digital Approaches to Cultural Heritage, within a session on 3D modelling. I've discussed a case study in ancient Greek music, namely my recent reconstruction of the Louvre aulos and the many different types of evidence that informed it, ranging from literary and technical texts to iconography, mathematical models and practical experiments. ---------------- General info on this session This session introduced the concept of 3D modelling or visualisation, the production of 3D models of objects that cannot simply be imaged or scanned—either because they no longer exist (e.g. archaeological fragments), or not yet (e.g. digital design), or never will (conceptual or artistic models), or extant finds where experimental or working models are needed. We discuss important issues around the use of 3D modelling in scholarly research, including metadata, documentation and academic value, and hear about two case studies, involving ancient musical instruments and anatomical ideas. We suggest an exercise for students to try out at home, and present a short tutorial on building an architectural reconstruction of a building from Pompeii using the free software Blender.

description: Fine pressure ($P$) and magnetic field ($H$) tuning on the ferromagnetic superconductor URhGe are reported in order to clarify the interplay between the mass enhancement, low field superconductivity (SC) and field reentrant superconductivity (RSC) by electrical resistivity measurements. With increasing $P$, the transition temperature and the upper critical field of the low field SC decrease slightly, while the RSC dome drastically shifts to higher fields and shrinks. The spin reorientation field $H_{\rm R}$ also increases. At a pressure $P\sim 1.8$ GPa, the RSC has collapsed while the low field SC persists and may disappear only above 4 GPa. Via careful $(P, H)$ studies of the inelastic $T^2$ resistivity term, it is demonstrated that this drastic change is directly related with the $P$ dependence of the effective mass which determines the critical field of the low field SC and RSC on the basis of triplet SC without Pauli limiting field.

description: Quasi-real Compton scattering, previously used in e^+e^- and e p collisions for luminosity measurements and detector calibration at PEP and HERA, is discussed for the energy range available at the construenda  ϕ -factory DAFNE. We show that the very high rate expected at DAFNE makes this process particularly convenient for a contiuous calibration of the KLOE detector over the full angular range, directly from the data.

description: Context. CoRoT light curves have an unprecedented photometric quality, having simultaneously a high signal-to-noise ratio, a long time span and a nearly continuous duty-cycle. Aims. We analyse the light-curves of four bright targets observed in the seismology field and study short-lived small spots in solar-like stars. Methods. We present a simple spot modeling by iterative analysis. Its ability to extract relevant parameters is ensured by implementing relaxation steps to avoid convergence to local minima of the sum of the residuals between observations and modeling. The use of Monte-Carlo simulations allows us to estimate the performance of the fits. Results. Our starspot modeling gives a representation of the spots on these stars in agreement with other well tested methods. Within this framework, parameters such as rigid-body rotation and spot lifetimes seem to be precisely determined. Then, the lifetime/rotation period ratios are in the range 0.5 - 2, and there is clear evidence for differential rotation.

description: We present polarization observations of the 6.7-GHz methanol masers around the massive protostar Cepheus A HW2 and its associated disc. The data were taken with the Multi-Element Radio Linked Interferometer Network. The maser polarization is used to determine the full three-dimensional magnetic field structure around Cepheus A HW2. The observations suggest that the masers probe the large scale magnetic field and not isolated pockets of a compressed field. We find that the magnetic field is predominantly aligned along the protostellar outflow and perpendicular to the molecular and dust disc. From the three-dimensional magnetic field orientation and measurements of the magnetic field strength along the line of sight, we are able to determine that the high density material, in which the masers occurs, is threaded by a large scale magnetic field of ~23 mG. This indicates that the protostellar environment at ~1000 AU from Cepheus A HW2 is slightly supercritical (lambda approximately 1.7) and the relation between density and magnetic field is consistent with collapse along the magnetic field lines. Thus, the observations indicate that the magnetic field likely regulates accretion onto the disc. The magnetic field dominates the turbulent energies by approximately a factor of three and is sufficiently strong to be the crucial component stabilizing the massive accretion disc and sustaining the high accretion rates needed during massive star-formation.

description: The substitution of Ce by Y in YMn2 leads to the destabilization of the Mn magnetic moment and inhibits both the transition to antiferromagnetism and the associated expansion of the crystal cell observed in pure YMn 2. We show in this work how hydrogen uptake in the Y1-xCexMn2 series gives rise to the recovery of long-range magnetic ordering in these system. The analysis of magnetic and x-ray-absorption spectroscopy experiments addresses the critical role played by the modification of the Ce electronic state in the stabilization of the Mn magnetic through the hybridization changes.
The effect of the 8 m.m. slow motion color film on the learning of specific motor skills
Creators: name: Winslade, Donald Kenneth
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of the 8m.m. slow motion color film on the learning of motor skills in physical education. Basketball skills were used in the study. Three classes of Grade 9 boys were selected for the study. The three classes were administered the Stroup Basketball Test. After the initial test one class was selected as the group to receive the class demonstration by film. One class was selected as the group to receive the class demonstration live, by the teacher. The third group was selected as a control group. The groups were matched by threes on a basis of rank order. The live group and film group received 8 lessons in basketball skills. The lessons were identical except for the method of demonstration. The control group received regular physical education periods, excluding basketball. At the end of the 8 lessons, the three groups were retested. Both the film and live groups showed gains in performance which were statistically significant. No statistically significant gains were obtained for the control group. The improvement of both the film group and live group significantly exceeded the improvement of the control group. The improvement of the film group did not significantly exceed the live group. It was concluded that the 8 m.m. slow motion color film seems conducive to the learning of motor skills and adaptable to use in physical education when used competently.

description: Purpose: Professionals face substantial challenges determining whether and when children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who are not yet using spoken words will use spoken language as their primary means of communication. This tutorial provides speech-language pathologists with practical guidance on how to measure expressive language predictors for progress monitoring and making intervention decisions for children with ASD who are preverbal.Method: This tutorial is a repackaging effort that seeks to make the research accessible to clinicians wishing to implement evidence-based practice.Results: We describe intentional communication, consonant inventory in communication acts, and responding to joint attention as particularly valuable prelinguistic skills to measure. We explain how and when to efficiently assess progress using published assessments periodically and using brief (5-min) communication samples for more frequent progress monitoring.Conclusions: Communication samples can be used to show how a child performs within a therapeutic setting during teaching (treatment data) and outside of the therapeutic setting (generalization probe data). Both types of data are critical for determining whether the child is exhibiting progress and which aspects of intervention are facilitating progress toward use of spoken words. These recommendations also balance the evidence for best practices for progress monitoring and the demands on clinicians’ time and effort. To encourage the measurement of prelinguistic skills of children with ASD who are preverbal in clinical practice, we include (a) example data collection documents, (b) examples with hypothetical data and interpretation, and (c) guidance on communication sampling procedures.

description: We present a summary of recent results on CP violation and mixing in the charm quark sector based on a high statistics sample collected by photoproduction experiment FOCUS (E831 at Fermilab). We have measured the difference in lifetimes for the D0 decays: D0→K−π+ and D0→K−K+. This translates into a measurement of the yCP mixing parameter in the $\d0d0$ system, under the assumptions that K−K+ is an equal mixture of CP odd and CP even eigenstates, and CP violation is negligible in the neutral charm meson system. We verified the latter assumption by searching for a CP violating asymmetry in the Cabibbo suppressed decay modes D+→K−K+π+, D0→K−K+ and D0→π−π+. We show preliminary results on a measurement of the branching ratio Γ(D∗+→π+(K+π−))/Γ(D∗+→π+(K−π+)).
