description: In recent years, the full text of papers are increasingly available electronically which opens up the possibility of quantitatively investigating citation contexts in more detail. In this study, we introduce a new form of citation analysis, which we call citation concept analysis (CCA). CCA is intended to reveal the cognitive impact certain concepts -- published in a document -- have on the citing authors. It counts the number of times the concepts are mentioned (cited) in the citation context of citing publications. We demonstrate the method using three classical examples: (1) The structure of scientific revolutions by Thomas S. Kuhn, (2) The logic of scientific discovery - Logik der Forschung: Zur Erkenntnistheorie der modernen Naturwissenschaft in German -, and (3) Conjectures and refutations: the growth of scientific knowledge by Karl R. Popper. It is not surprising -- as our results show -- that Kuhn's "paradigm" concept has had a significant impact. What is surprising is that it has had such a disproportionately larger impact than Kuhn's other concepts, e.g., "scientific revolution". The paradigm concept accounts for over 80% of the concept-related citations to Kuhn's work, and its impact is resilient across all disciplines and over time. With respect to Popper, "falsification" is the most used concept derived from his books. Falsification, after all, is the cornerstone of Popper's critical rationalism.

description: In this work, we enrich a formalism for argumentation by including a formal characterization of features related to the knowledge, in order to capture proper reasoning in legal domains. We add meta-data information to the arguments in the form of labels representing quantitative and qualitative data about them. These labels are propagated through an argumentative graph according to the relations of support, conflict, and aggregation between arguments.

On gauge dependence of the one-loop divergences in $6D$, ${\cal N} = (1,0)$ and ${\cal N} = (1,1)$ SYM theories

description: We study the gauge dependence of one-loop divergences in a general matter-coupled $6D$, ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ supersymmetric gauge theory in the harmonic superspace formulation. Our analysis is based on the effective action constructed by the background superfield method, with the gauge-fixing term involving one real parameter $ξ_0$. A manifestly gauge invariant and ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ supersymmetric procedure for calculating the one-loop effective action is developed. It yields the one-loop divergences in an explicit form and allows one to investigate their gauge dependence. As compared to the minimal gauge, $ξ_0=1$, the divergent part of the general-gauge effective action contains a new term depending on $ξ_0\,$. This term vanishes for the background superfields satisfying the classical equations of motion, so that the $S$-matrix divergences are gauge-independent. In the case of $6D$, ${\cal N} = (1,1)$ SYM theory we demonstrate that some divergent contributions in the non-minimal gauges do not vanish off shell, as opposed to the minimal gauge.

description: We have examined the period-luminosity (P-L) relation for delta Scuti stars using Gaia DR2 parallaxes. We included 228 stars from the catalogue of Rodriguez et al. (2000), as well as 1124 stars observed in the four-year Kepler mission. For each star we considered the dominant pulsation period, and used DR2 parallaxes and extinction corrections to determine absolute V magnitudes. Many stars fall along a sequence in the P-L relation coinciding with fundamental-mode pulsation, while others pulsate in shorter-period overtones. The latter stars tend to have higher effective temperatures, consistent with theoretical calculations. Surprisingly, we find an excess of stars lying on a ridge with periods half that of the fundamental. We suggest this may be due to a 2:1 resonance between the third or fourth overtone and the fundamental mode.

description: In recent years, precision agriculture that uses modern information and communication technologies is becoming very popular. Raw and semi-processed agricultural data are usually collected through various sources, such as: Internet of Thing (IoT), sensors, satellites, weather stations, robots, farm equipment, farmers and agribusinesses, etc. Besides, agricultural datasets are very large, complex, unstructured, heterogeneous, non-standardized, and inconsistent. Hence, the agricultural data mining is considered as Big Data application in terms of volume, variety, velocity and veracity. It is a key foundation to establishing a crop intelligence platform, which will enable resource efficient agronomy decision making and recommendations. In this paper, we designed and implemented a continental level agricultural data warehouse by combining Hive, MongoDB and Cassandra. Our data warehouse capabilities: (1) flexible schema; (2) data integration from real agricultural multi datasets; (3) data science and business intelligent support; (4) high performance; (5) high storage; (6) security; (7) governance and monitoring; (8) replication and recovery; (9) consistency, availability and partition tolerant; (10) distributed and cloud deployment. We also evaluate the performance of our data warehouse.

description: Documentary photography is built on assumptions of factual objectivity, and seeks to provide direct access to human experience and emotion. Throughout its long history it has become synonymous with the recording of social conflict and human misery. However, it has also been criticised for exploiting, abusing and humiliating its subjects, as viewers often look at the downtrodden and their reality from a position of relative privilege and passivity. My exhibition of photographs and photobook collectively titled Other People’s Lives, and supported by the accompanying exegesis, challenge traditional documentary photography and propose a more ethical approach. The works are the result of fieldwork-based photographic practice involving people living in small towns in decline in Australia. My methodology examines whether collaboration and introducing notions of trade and exchange into the photographic encounter can respond to the inherent potential for exploitation, abuse and humiliation in documentary, whilst still maintaining its ability to capture the reality of those people living in towns in decline. The medium of the photobook, combining text and image, allows for a deeper exploration of subjects and their surrounds, whilst the exegesis, through two key case studies - Richard Avedon’s In The American West and Walker Evans and James Agee’s Let Us Now Praise Famous Men - examines the relationships between subjects and photographers, including the impact of making payments to subjects, the effect of celebrity and the idea of trade and exchange in the photographic encounter. The research project references critiques of photographic practice by Ariella Azoulay, Susan Sontag, Roland Barthes and John Berger, as well as reflecting on work by a selection of contemporary documentary photographers that relates to the development of the methodology and aesthetic in the research project.

 Descriptive Notes. Dorsum dark brownish-black to bronzy. Pronotum with base densely punctulate, often with fine rugulae. Elytra with seriate punctures small, with microsculpture granulate, isodiametric. Metatarsi dorsally with dense, long pubescence. Dimorphism  +  ♂  1   —  ♀  2 . Median lobe with dorsoapical plate slender, strongly hooked dorsad. Endophallus with 2–4 long slender spines; lamina prominent. ABL 7.2–8.0 mm.
 Range. USA: AL*, FL, MS; West Indies; Nicaragua; Argentina; Bolivia *; Brazil; Colombia, Peru; Venezuela.
 Remarks. The known geographical range of S. discopunctatus is disjunct. It includes southeastern USA, several countries in South America, and much of the West Indies, but is apparently not present in Mexico and Central America. Selenophorus yucatanus Putzeys (1878a: 24), of the Yucatan Peninsula (type area) and the Lesser Antilles (Shpeley et al. 2017), is similar in appearance and potentially sympatric. As members of the discopunctatus species group, both species have the basal one third of the pronotum densely punctate which in S. yucatanus includes coarser longitudinal rugae that are most distinct posteriomedially. Additionally, S. yucatanus has larger (foveate) seriate punctures, greater average ABL in the Mexican populations (at least 8 mm), and the median lobe is with endophallus unarmed and the apex is without a prominent hook (Shpeley et al. 2017).

description: It is thought that a stochastic background of gravitational waves was produced during the formation of the universe. A great deal could be learned by measuring this Cosmic Gravitational-wave Background (CGB), but detecting the CGB presents a significant technological challenge. The signal strength is expected to be extremely weak, and there will be competition from unresolved astrophysical foregrounds such as white dwarf binaries. Our goal is to identify the most promising approach to detect the CGB. We study the sensitivities that can be reached using both individual, and cross-correlated pairs of space based interferometers. Our main result is a general, coordinate free formalism for calculating the detector response that applies to arbitrary detector configurations. We use this general formalism to identify some promising designs for a GrAvitational Background Interferometer (GABI) mission. Our conclusion is that detecting the CGB is not out of reach.

By applying magnetic fields, superconductivity is restricted to length scales of the order of the coherence length. We measure the tunneling conductance and analyze the phonon structure and the low energy DOS. We demonstrate the influence of the geometry of the system on the magnetic field dependence of the tunneling density of states, which is gapless in a large range of fields. The behavior of the features in the tunneling conductance associated to phonon modes are explained within current models.

description: We computed the phase-separation behavior and effective interactions of colloid-polymer mixtures in the "protein limit", where the polymer radius of gyration is much larger than the colloid radius. For ideal polymers, the critical colloidal packing fraction tends to zero, whereas for interacting polymers in a good solvent the behavior is governed by a universal binodal, implying a constant critical colloid packing fraction. In both systems the depletion interaction is not well described by effective pair potentials but requires the incorporation of many-body contributions.

description: Recent accurate measurements of cosmic ray electron flux by the Dark Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) reveal a sharp peak structure near 1.4 TeV, which is difficult to explain by standard astrophysical processes. In this letter, we propose a simple model that the enhanced dark matter annihilation via the $e^+e^-$ channel and with the thermal relic annihilation cross section around the current nearest black hole (A0620-00) can satisfactorily account for the sharp peak structure. The predicted dark matter mass is $\sim 1.5-3$ TeV.

description: The first step of photosynthetic metabolism effects the facile oxidation of water to dioxygen and hydrogen cations. This is achieved through an incompletely-understood process of light-driven four-electron oxidation at the Mn4CaO5 cofactor of the Oxygen Evolving Complex (OEC) of the Photosystem II (PSII) holoenzymatic complex in photosynthetic autotrophs. Biomimesis of this reaction—artificial photosynthesis—may offer energy-efficient routes to industrial hydrogen generation and value-added derivatives, with implications for solar energy fixation. This thesis consists of a compilation of four publications relating to Density Functional Theory (DFT) studies of structural and spectroscopic aspects of the OEC of PSII. These publications consist of research resolving the basis of structural anomalies in metal-substituted PSII, combinatoric simulation of difference spectra corresponding to proton-coupled oxido-reduction scenarios of PSII models, simulation of the hyperfine and superexchange magnetic interactions in PSII models, and the development of a methodology for obtaining vibrational intensities in the Mobiel Block Hessian (MBH) approximation, with applications to accelerated modeling of the vibrational structure of complex models of PSII, as well as other large molecules. These publications are presented alongside explanatory introductions and preceded by a general survey of the state of the art of photosynthesis research, context for the relevance of this research, and methodological discussion. Concluding remarks are also presented.

description: We introduce a new approach to understand magnetization dynamics in ferromagnets based on the holographic realization of ferromagnets. A Landau-Lifshitz equation describing the magnetization dynamics is derived from a Yang-Mills equation in the dual gravitational theory, and temperature dependences of the spin-wave stiffness and spin transfer torque appearing in the holographic Landau-Lifshitz equation are investigated by the holographic approach. The results are consistent with the known properties of magnetization dynamics in ferromagnets with conduction electrons.

Transmigration and its centre-regional context : the case of Riau and South Kalimantan Provinces, Indonesia
Creators: name: Tirtosudarmo, Riwanto

Year: 1990
Subjects: subject: Migration, Internal Government policy Indonesia Riau (Province)
subject: Migration, Internal Government policy Indonesia Kalimantan Selatan

description: This thesis analyses transmigration policy in Indonesia within the context of centre and regional relationships. The evidence from Riau and South Kalimantan suggests that as a consequence of the unequal relationship between the centre and the regions, the implementation of transmigration policy has suffered from a lack of both coordination and feedback that could enhance an appropriate policy. At the regional level, the ambiguous national goals of transmigration policy have been simply translated into physical and quantifiable targets, which, in turn, have resulted in the neglect of transmigration policy as an integrated and complementary effort between the different sectors and ministries. The prevailing problems of implementation, such as the unsuitability of land for agricultural settlements, the various forms of mismanagement within the implementing agencies, and the hidden conflicts with the local population, have only had limited feedback effect on the policy making process in the central government. After the budget was drastically cut back in the mid-1980s, however, transmigration policy started to confront new dimensions of these problems. At this time, the implementation of transmigration policy was forced to change direction toward, among other things, maintaining the existing settlements and bolstering the cash-crops scheme. The spontaneous transmigration scheme, which became government rhetoric during the previous period, seems also to be receiving serious attention by the government. Yet, as the prevailing economic and political structure of the country is unchanged, the myth of transmigration policy as a panacea is unlikely to vanish.

In this talk I review previous work and present a simple model of the mechanism in which the induced stress tensor behaves like negative vacuum energy with a density proportional to $-Λ/{8πG} \cdot (G Λ)^2 \cdot H t$. The model also highlights the essential role of causality in back-reaction.

description: Although Homo sapiens were anatomically able to talk 150,000 years ago (150 kya), it appears that they did not until about 40 kya when the Upper Paleolithic cultural and symbolic explosion occurred. To date, there has been no satisfactory explanation. This paper attempts to provide an answer as to when a fully developed G1 language came into being and the reasons for the emergence of such a language plus the reasons why the later Paleolithic explosion took so long to develop. Specifically, the abilities of the Homo sapiens' prefrontal cortex, the planning involved with various tool-making and other processes, the development of episodic memory, the growing use of spoken words, and a new understanding of time -- all came together about 100 kya. It then took another 60 ky before this new sensibility led to an established belief system which resulted in the Upper Paleolithic cultural explosion.

description: We analysed capacitive coupling in sEIT measurements associated with different cable types(shielded and unshielded) and measurement approaches (active and passive electrodes) using circuitmodels and actual sEIT field measurements. The modelling results showed the intricate trade-offsbetween wire-wire, wire-shield, and shield-soil capacitive coupling for shielded and unshieldedcables when using passive electrodes with a centralized multiplexer. The field measurements with acentralized multiplexer and a fan-shaped cable layout with elevated cables showed that unshieldedcables showed lower capacitive coupling than shielded cables because of the dominance of wire-shield capacitive coupling. Analysis using the developed circuit models showed that this result is aconsequence of the site conditions, and cannot be generalized.
New Perspectives on the Relativistically Rotating Disk and Non-time-orthogonal Reference Frames
Creators: name: Klauber, Robert D.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The rotating disk problem is analyzed on the premise that proper interpretation of experimental evidence leads to the conclusion that the postulates upon which relativity theory is based, particularly the invariance of the speed of light, are not applicable to rotating frames. Different postulates based on the Sagnac experiment are proposed, and from these postulates a new relativistic theory of rotating frames is developed following steps similar to those initially followed by Einstein for rectilinear motion. The resulting theory agrees with all experiments, resolves problems with the traditional approach to the rotating disk, and exhibits both traditionally relativistic and non-relativistic characteristics. Of particular note, no Lorentz contraction exists on the rotating disk circumference, and the disk surface, contrary to the assertions of Einstein and others, is found to be Riemann flat. The variable speed of light found in the Sagnac experiment is then shown to be characteristic of non-time-orthogonal reference frames, of which the rotating frame is one. In addition, the widely accepted postulate for the equivalence of inertial and non-inertial standard rods with zero relative velocity, used liberally in prior rotating disk analyses, is shown to be invalid for such frames. Further, the new theory stands alone in correctly predicting what was heretofore considered a "spurious" non-null effect on the order of 10^-13 found by Brillet and Hall in the most accurate Michelson-Morley type test to date. The presentation is simple and pedagogic in order to make it accessible to the non-specialist. Key words: relativistic, rotating disk, Sagnac, rotating frame, non-time-orthogonal frame.

Frames and counterframes: envisioning contemporary Kanaka Maoli art in Hawai'i

description: Since the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom in 1893 and the subsequent illegal annexation of the Islands by the United States in 1898, Native Hawaiians (Kānaka Maoli) have vigilantly contested U.S. colonialism in Hawaiʻi and have resolutely sought to defend and affirm their existence as the still sovereign people of their homeland through political, legal, cultural, and artistic means. While the first three instances of indigenous resistance have been well documented in numerous books, journal articles, and theses, there remains a largely untapped field of academic enquiry concerning the role of contemporary Kanaka Maoli art within this milieu. This dissertation seeks to close the gap with an examination of how Native Hawaiian artists use the visual arts as a tool to assert their socio-political aspirations, affirm their sovereign identity, and disrupt the colonial status quo by representing themselves on their own terms. Here, the visual arts function as an abstract expression of Native power. As an analytical anchor, I use Tuscarora scholar Jolene Rickard’s term “visual sovereignty” to investigate three discrete contexts in which Kanaka Maoli art is produced: “high” art, commercial art, and public art. For the purpose of this study, I define visual sovereignty as an aesthetic strategy through which Kanaka Maoli artists articulate an indigenous-centered perspective that conveys Native epistemologies, ongoing political struggles, and ancestral connection to place. An examination of contemporary Kanaka Maoli art using this paradigm has not yet been advanced in the Hawai‘i context but a growing body of scholarship by Native American and First Nations academics and art practitioners indicates the indispensability of opening up a discussion that attends to Kanaka Maoli visual culture as an articulation of indigenous sovereignty. This thesis is a nascent step toward that end.
Phonon-assisted luminescence of magnetoexcitons in semiconductor quantum wells

description: We consider a line-shape of magnetoexciton photoluminescence from quantum wells when the disorder is sufficiently small. In this case the phonon-assisted optical transitions become important for the line formation. We study both inter-band and intra-band excitons. For inter-band excitons the width of a single peak emission line is calculated as a function of temperature and quantum well width. For intra-band excitons the double peak of the emission line is predicted when the electron filling factor is odd and greater or equal to three. In the latter case the lowest magnetoexciton dispersion curve has a minimum at non-zero momentum. Then the higher-energy peak results from the direct optical emission of zero-momentum excitons. The origin of the lower-energy peak is the phonon-assisted transitions from the non-zero momentum exciton states. With increasing temperature, the higher-energy peak becomes more pronounced and the lower-energy peak vanishes.

description: Something is not right in the safety profession. Many books written by professionals in the 2010s express a strong discontent. These professionals are highly critical of their situation, practice, role and identity. In these books, they express what this article describes as the ‘blues of safety professionals’. Although varying in writing style, tone, theoretical inspiration, emphasis and experience, they address similar issues which relate to practices corresponding, in their eyes, to outmoded, inadequate or even perverse ideas. The aim of this article is to introduce, summarize, explain and problematize the significance of this literature. Following a methodological section, the ‘safety professional blues’ is introduced.

description: The harmonic Frenkel-Kontorova model is used to illustrate with an exactly solvable example a general technique of mapping a coherently strained epitaxial system with continuous atomic displacements onto a lattice gas model (LGM) with only discrete variables. The misfit strain of the original model is transformed into cluster interatomic interactions of the LGM. The clusters are contiguous atomic chains of all lengths but the interaction strength for long chains is exponentially small. This makes possible the application of efficient Monte Carlo techniques developed for discrete variables both in kinetic and equilibrium simulations. The formalism developed can be applied to 1D as well as to 2D systems. As an illustrative example we consider the problem of self-organization of 1D size calibrated clusters on the steps of the vicinal surfaces.

description: Upon contact with antigen presenting cells (APCs) cytotoxic T lymphocytes (T cells) establish a highly organized contact zone denoted as immunological synapse (IS). The formation of the IS implies relocation of the microtubule organizing center (MTOC) towards the contact zone, which necessitates a proper connection between MTOC and IS via dynamic microtubules (MTs). The efficiency of the MTs finding the IS within relevant time scale is, however, still illusive. We investigate how MTs search the three-dimensional constrained cellular volume for the IS and bind upon encounter to dynein anchored at the IS cortex. The search efficiency is estimated by calculating the time required for the MTs to reach the dynein-enriched region of the IS. In this study, we develop simple mathematical and numerical models incorporating relevant components of a cell and propose an optimal search strategy. Using the mathematical model, we have quantified the average search time for a wide range of model parameters and proposed an optimized set of values leading to the minimum capture time. Our results show that search times are minimal when the IS formed at the nearest or at the farthest sites on the cell surface, with respect to the perinuclear MTOC. The search time increases monotonically away from these two specific sites and are maximal at an intermediate position near the equator of the cell. We observed that search time strongly depends on the number of searching MTs and distance of the MTOC from the nuclear surface.

description: Helium accretion induced explosions in CO white dwarfs (WDs) are considered promising candidates for a number of observed types of stellar transients, including supernovae (SNe) of Type Ia and Type Iax. However, a clear favorite outcome has not yet emerged. We explore the conditions of helium ignition in the white dwarf and the final fates of helium star-WD binaries as function of their initial orbital periods and component masses. We compute 274 model binary systems with the Binary Evolution Code (BEC), where both components are fully resolved. Stellar and orbital evolution is computed simultaneously, including mass and angular momentum transfer, tides, and gravitational wave emission, as well as differential rotation and internal hydrodynamic and magnetic angular momentum transport. We find that helium detonations are expected only in systems with the shortest initial orbital periods, and for initially massive white dwarfs (MWD > 1.0 MSun ) and lower mass donors (Mdonor < 0.8 MSun), with accumulated helium layers mostly exceeding 0.1 MSun. Upon detonation, these systems would release the donor as a hypervelocity pre-WD runaway star, for which we predict the expected range of kinematic and stellar properties. Systems with more massive donors or initial periods exceeding 1.5 h will likely undergo helium deflagrations after accumulating 0.1 - 0.001 MSun of helium. Helium ignition in the white dwarf is avoided in systems with helium donor stars below - 0.6 MSun, and lead to three distinctly different groups of double white dwarf systems. The size of the parameter space open to helium detonation corresponds to only about 3 % of the galactic SN Ia rate, and to 10 % of the SN Iax rate, while the predicted large amounts of helium (>0.1 MSun) in progenitors cannot easily be reconciled with observations of archetypical SN Ia. ...

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: To bridge the gap between background independent, non-perturbative quantum gravity and low energy physics described by perturbative field theory in Minkowski space-time, Minkowskian Fock states are located, analyzed and used in the background independent framework. This approach to the analysis of semi-classical issues is motivated by recent results of Varadarajan. As in that work, we use the simpler U(1) example to illustrate our constructions but, in contrast to that work, formulate the theory in such a way that it can be extended to full general relativity.

description: A non-blind color GIS image watermarking algorithm based on the concept of LWT using MSVDtechnique has been proposed. The maximum valued coefficients of LWT in a block of size 2 × 2 have been used to embed color watermark. It has been observed that the perceptual quality of the watermarked image is comparatively better. The performance of the algorithm has been tested on crowd sourced GIS images taken through mobile based e-governance applications and the experimental results have been compared with some existing methods. The obtained results show that this algorithm has performed better than existing algorithms and is also robust against geometrical image processing attacks.
