description: We quantify the rapid variations in X-ray brightness ("flares") from the extremely massive colliding wind binary Eta Carinae seen during the past three orbital cycles by RXTE. The observed flares tend to be shorter in duration and more frequent as periastron is approached, although the largest ones tend to be roughly constant in strength at all phases. Plausible scenarios include (1) the largest of multi-scale stochastic wind clumps from the LBV component entering and compressing the hard X-ray emitting wind-wind collision (WWC) zone, (2) large-scale corotating interacting regions in the LBV wind sweeping across the WWC zone, or (3) instabilities intrinsic to the WWC zone. The first one appears to be most consistent with the observations, requiring homologously expanding clumps as they propagate outward in the LBV wind and a turbulence-like power-law distribution of clumps, decreasing in number towards larger sizes, as seen in Wolf-Rayet winds.

description: The underlying physics of neutrino oscillation in vacuum can be demonstrated by an optical analogical experiment. Two different neutrino flavors are represented by two polarization states of a laser beam, whereas the different phase propagation in vacuum is mimicked by the propagation difference of an ordinary and an extraordinary beam in a birefringent crystal. This allows us to demonstrate neutrino oscillation by optical methods in a fully microscopic way at the particle level. The description of both realizations of oscillation is also mathematically identical. In our demonstration experiment we can vary the oscillation parameters such as propagation length L and mixing angle Theta.

description: We propose a novel approach for analysing time series using complex network theory. We identify the recurrence matrix calculated from time series with the adjacency matrix of a complex network, and apply measures for the characterisation of complex networks to this recurrence matrix. By using the logistic map, we illustrate the potentials of these complex network measures for detecting dynamical transitions. Finally we apply the proposed approach to a marine palaeo-climate record and identify subtle changes of the climate regime.

title: A Comparison Between Desensitization and Relaxation Training in the Treatment of Primary Dysmenorrhea
Creators: name: Carcelli, Susan Myrna Jones
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1985

description: The use of relaxation, desensitization, and relaxation plus desensitization in the treatment of primary dysmenorrhea was investigated in this study. Subjects were 45 university women who experienced either congestive or spasmodic dysmenorrhea. Each subject was individually treated in four, one-hour sessions during the first 20 days of her menstrual cycle. Subjects were divided into three groups: Group 1 obtained four hours of progressive relaxation training, group 2 was asked to self-relax while being administered scenes from a standardized menstrual hierarchy, and group 3 obtained both relaxation training and desensitization. Type of dysmenorrhea was assessed by the Menstrual Symptom Questionnaire (MSQ). Symptom intensity and duration were assessed by the Retrospective Symptom Scale, the Menstrual Semantic Differential, the Menstrual Activities Scale, and the Menstrual Behavior Scale, and were administered pre-test, posttest, and three-month follow-up. Skin temperature during session 4 was obtained to evaluate the level of relaxation.
Differences among treatment groups were analyzed using a one-way analysis of variance. t-tests for correlated samples were used to analyze within group changes form pretreatment to posttreatment.
Results suggest all three treatments to be equally effective in reducing symptoms, negative attitudes, pain mitigating behaviors, and invalid hours. Symptom relief was not associated with skin temperature increases. The possibility of placebo playing a role in these results cannot be ruled out. Finally, the division of primary dysmenorrhea into spasmodic and congestive types by the MSQ is inaccurate, most probably due to the confounding nature of the scoring system.

The voltammetric determination of copper and lead in seawater : applications to Indian Arm and Burrard Inlet
Creators: name: Erickson, Paul Eric
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: An anodic stripping voltammetric technique was developed for the simultaneous determination of Cu and Pb in seawater. Mercuric ion added to the sample is plated out with the metals of interest onto a highly polished glassy carbon electrode. The thin mercury films obtained by this procedure gave excellent resolution and sensitivity although a non-linear response resulted in the case of Cu, presumably as a result of saturation of the mercury, at concentrations in excess of 4 μg/1. The technique was applied to a short term study of the distribution of Cu and Pb in Indian Arm and Burrard Inlet. Large fluctuations in the concentrations of both metals were observed during the sampling period, July to October, 1972. Although dissolved Pb concentrations were lower than might be expected near a large urban area, there was, nevertheless, an overall enrichment of the subsurface waters of the inlets relative to Georgia Strait by as much as an order of magnitude. Dissolved Cu concentrations were not, however, significantly higher than those reported for other B.C. coastal waters. Although study of metal speciation by the method employed here was limited by the excess of mercuric ions added to the samples and interferences from surface active agents, evidence was obtained indicating that a portion of Cu in some British Columbia coastal seawater samples is complexed with dissolved organic matter. The experimental conditions indicate that these complexes are either inert to displacement by mercuric ions or have a high degree of specificity for Cu.

description: We consider the statistical analysis of random sections of a spin fibre bundle over the sphere. These may be thought of as random fields that at each point p in $S^2$ take as a value a curve (e.g. an ellipse) living in the tangent plane at that point $T_{p}S^2$, rather than a number as in ordinary situations. The analysis of such fields is strongly motivated by applications, for instance polarization experiments in Cosmology. To investigate such fields, spin needlets were recently introduced by Geller and Marinucci (2008) and Geller et al. (2008). We consider the use of spin needlets for spin angular power spectrum estimation, in the presence of noise and missing observations, and we provide Central Limit Theorem results, in the high frequency sense; we discuss also tests for bias and asymmetries with an asymptotic justification.

description: Tutoring has been used as an instructional method for many years. Reviewers have made narrative conclusions that tutoring has many academic, social, and emotional benefits for the tutor and tutee.
This study applied meta-analysis techniques to studies in which learning disabled, behaviorally disordered, or intellectually handicapped elementary and secondary school students were sed to tutor academic content material to handicapped tutees. It was found that the experimental subjects made greater gains on the academic material than the control groups. Gains on social/emotional measures were minimal. Various research design and tutoring intervention characteristics were examined for their influence on tutor and tutee performance.

description: The purpose of this study was to conduct a systematic replication of the experiment of Burnam, Pennebaker, and Glass (1973) using an adult population and the Jenkins Activity Survey. Additionally, this study attempted to address the issue of whether the previous results would be substantiated when a non-college sample was used.
The subjects consisted of40 females and 40 males who volunteered to participate in the study. All subjects were given the Jenkins Activity Survey and randomly assigned to Condition I, the No Deadline condition, or Condition II, the Deadline condition. The subjects in the No Deadline condition were given arithmetic problems with no time limit instructions, and subjects in the Deadline condition were given arithmetic problems with instructions which stated a time limit.
The results indicated that college students performed differently than the employed adults used in this study. Unlike the original study, this study using adults did not find a significant main effect for the Deadline versus No Deadline condition. Although the interaction effects were statistically significant in both studies, the reported interaction effects were not similar.

title: A Comparison of Evaluation Models for Handicap Intervention in a Head Start Program
Creators: name: Niebuhr, Carin
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1985

description: The Model A and Model C Title I evaluation options were compared by using both options to measure the effectiveness of handicap intervention in a Head Start program. Two hundred three children in Jackson County (Oregon) were pretested with the Developmental Indicators of Learning Test (DIAL), the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT), the Visual-Motor Integration Scale (VMI), and the Carrow Elicited Language Inventory (CELI). The 43 children who scored below the predetermined cut-off level were placed in a six-month intervention program. One hundred forty-nine children remaining in the Head Start program in May were posttested with the same tests. Model A analysis of mean scores of the intervention group indicated significant score change on all three testing instruments. Model C analysis indicated no positive score change. It was posited that the Model A effect in this project was large because it combined a positive intervention effect with a positive general program effect. The Model C option showed no effect because the estimated nonintervention scores were very large due to the large positive score change in the nonintervention group.
The Orbital Evolution of Gas Giant Planets around Giant Stars

description: Recent surveys have revealed a lack of close-in planets around evolved stars more massive than 1.2 Msun. Such planets are common around solar-mass stars. We have calculated the orbital evolution of planets around stars with a range of initial masses, and have shown how planetary orbits are affected by the evolution of the stars all the way to the tip of the Red Giant Branch (RGB). We find that tidal interaction can lead to the engulfment of close-in planets by evolved stars. The engulfment is more efficient for more-massive planets and less-massive stars. These results may explain the observed semi-major axis distribution of planets around evolved stars with masses larger than 1.5 Msun. Our results also suggest that massive planets may form more efficiently around intermediate-mass stars.

title: The Relationship Between Therapist Approach Postures, Avoidance Postures and Posture Sharing, and Subjects' Experience of Rapport
Creators: name: Carcelli, Lawrence A.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1985

description: The relationship between approach, avoidance and congruent postures and the experience of rapport was investigated. Sixty undergraduate college students (30 male, 30 female) were interviewed by a therapist who displayed either approach postures, avoidance postures or who posture shared. The degree of rapport experienced by the 20 subjects in the three groups was compared. In addition, the subjects' behaviors were divided into four groups (n = 11, or 19) along two orthogonal dimensions (high and low congruency and immediacy) and the degree of rapport experienced by the four groups compared. No statistically significant results were found in either analysis. An attempt was made to control for three crucial external variables: the therapist's degree of eye contact and smiling, and the verbal content of the interviews. Directions for future research were discussed with a focus on naturalistic study in the future.
A self report measure of rapport was developed called the Rapport Experience Test (RET). The RET was designed to assess the successful communication of accurate empathy, unconditional positive regard and emotional congruence.Measures of internal consistency (Chronbach alpha) and test-retest reliability were obtained. These measures suggest that the RET may be a useful device for further research. Face validity was discussed.
title: Parent-Child Interaction Variables Related to the Moral Reasoning of High School Senior Males
Creators: name: Johns, Bruce R.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1984

description: The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship of parent-child interaction variables to moral reasoning and to identify those variables that best predict moral reasoning.
Subjects were 51 high school senior males and their parents from intact families. Parents and sons completed separate questionnaires designed to measure the following variables: moral reasoning, induction, power-assertion, love-withdrawal, authoritarian attitudes, intrusiveness, support, communication, socio-economic status and academic achievement. The instruments used to measure these variables were the Defining Issues Test, Parent-Child Relationship II Questionnaire, Child-Rearing Questionnaire, Child-Rearing Practices Report, Traditional Family Ideology Scale, the Two Factor Index of Socio-Economic Status, a set of communication items, and a self-report measure of findings were discussed in terms of future research
Correlations were computed between sons' moral reasoning and all other variables. Multiple regression with forward inclusion was computed to identify those variables which best predict sons' moral reasoning.
Socio-economic status was the only variable that, by itself, was found significantly related to sons' moral reasoning. However, a combination of eight variables was found to account for 51 percent of the variance in sons' moral reasoning. The variables are: socio-economic status, mothers' moral reasoning, fathers' maintenance of boundaries (overprotection), mothers control of sex and aggression (authoritarian attitudes), mothers' power-assertion, fathers' love withdrawal, fathers' moral reasoning and mothers' love withdrawal. Based on these results, it was concluded that parent-child interaction are related to sons' moral reasoning.
Parents who were able to step outside of traditional gender roles while interacting with and disciplining their children were more likely to have morally advanced sons. Parents' levels of moral reasoning were found to be important predictors of sons' moral reasoning. These findings were discussed in terms of future research possibilities.
Calculating Green Functions from Finite Systems

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In calculating Green functions for interacting quantum systems numerically one often has to resort to finite systems which introduces a finite size level spacing. In order to describe the limit of system size going to infinity correctly, one has to introduce an artificial broadening larger than the finite size level discretization. In this work we compare various discretization schemes for impurity problems, i.e. a small system coupled to leads. Starting from a naive linear discretization we will then discuss the logarithmic discretization of the Wilson NRG, compare it to damped boundary conditions and arbitrary discretization in energy space. We then discuss the importance of choosing the right single particle basis when calculating bulk spectral functions. Finally we show the influence of damped boundary conditions on the time evolution of wave packets leading to a NRG-tsunami.

Performance study of a compression ignition engine fuelled with biodiesel and ethanol
Creators: name: Oberstein, S
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Biodiesel and ethanol are recognized as a potential fuel of the future with several environmental advantages. While several published literature details the practical uses and applications of ethanol, little or no evidence is available in the public domain on the dual fuel mixture with biodiesel and ethanol and associated engine performance. There is a large established diesel infrastructure on remote islands powered by generators. A good understanding of exhaust gas emissions by these generators can provide useful information on the environmental implication of emissions. There is an established knowledge on the quantitative reduction of harmful emissions when using biodiesel and ethanol. This knowledge can forecast the state of the engine performance and the other detrimental health effects it can have on the general population. A good understanding of the quantitative and qualitative trends is available in the literature, for Cl engines run on biodiesel, as established knowledge. However, information of the reduced emissions and fuel consumption, using biodiesel and ethanol mixture is not extensively available in the public domain. Manufacturers of diesel generators have specific data available for use of biodiesel but the use and performance of their generators using dual fuels is not discussed. In this thesis, rigorous design and modifications for conversion of a Kubota generator to run on biodiesel-ethanol dual fuel system is proposed and built from first principles. The test rig development associated with the calculations for fuel flow rates and associated engine management systems will be integral part of this overall systematic design. As part of this investigation an innovative fuel injection system, to accommodate biodiesel and ethanol, is designed and incorporated. Data acquisition systems to measure on-line measurements of engine performance such as the Brake Specific Fuel Consumption (BSFC) and emissions will be developed as part of this work. In this investigation a comprehensive range of engine operating conditions will tested using both biodiesel-ethanol dual fuel. Over the range of engine operating conditions, emissions will be measured using on-board gas analyzer for systematic injection and increase of ethanol mixture. In this work, emissions such as Hydro Carbons (HC), carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and Nox are measured. The qualitative and quantitative comparison of harmful emissions for B100 biodiesel and various ratios of ethanol mixture in the blends will be carried out. The discussions will highlight the specific benefits, if any, of injecting ethanol and biodiesel. This work is a step towards understanding the levels of decreased emissions using bio-fuels and establishing qualitative and quantitative trends of engine performance on a sound mathematical and quantitative basis.

description: Former participants of an elementary-level gifted program were followed into junior high to determine the impact of the gifted program on their academic achievement and extracurricular participation. Parent and student perceptions of the gifted program were also determined. Academic achievement was measured by the variables grades in specific academic subjects, grade point averages, and achievement test scores. Extracurricular participation patterns were determined by response to a questionnaire on extracurricular activities. Intellectually- gifted former participants were compared on academic achievement and extracurricular participation to a comparable group of students who did not participate in any gifted program. No significant differences were found between the two groups. It was found that former participants of the gifted program were participating in their areas of giftedness as well as other areas of extracurricular activity. A substantial percentage of former participants were found to be excelling in their participation in extracurricular activities. It was also found that the gifted program was perceived positively by students and parents. It was concluded that the gifted program did not have an impact, positive or negative. on the subsequent academic performance of its former participants in junior high. It was also concluded that the gifted program did not have an impact, positive or negative, on the subsequent extracurricular participation of its former participants in junior high.

Estimation of demand for and supply of transport in rural Tasmania
Creators: name: Obialor, RA
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Rural public transport services cater to specific markets such as commuting and shopping trips, visiting friends and relatives, touring and so forth. Rural transportation generally provides services to people in rural areas as opposed to urban transportation systems that are primarily designed to shuttle people to and from work. Creating and running a rural transportation system can be a fairly simple operation but could be unprofitable. The needs of rural transportation research are many, and this study can make a significant contribution to all parties involved in the operation of rural transportation in Tasmania. The primary aim of this study is to estimate demand and supply functions for rural transportation in Tasmania. The secondary aim will be to compare the estimated elasticities with work already done in a similar field. Typical results of this study would include items such as (a) sensitivity of revenue to changes in fares, in-vehicle time, frequency and number of cars per household, (b) the sensitivity of frequency of service to changes in revenue, fare, cost per kilometre and size of the bus. No demand model or other methods of quantified demand predictions for small scale rural transportation system existed in Tasmania before this study. This study therefore aims at helping in understanding the patters of demand and supply of transport in Tasmania.

description: College students were assessed as to ego identity status and perceptions of their relationships with parents during their first year away from home. Each parent was also asked to rate the relationship. There was general agreement between parents and adolescents although the data indicate that mothers and adolescents share a more similar view of their relationship than did the fathers and adolescents.
The hypothesis that females would report more affection and communication with their parents than would males was partially supported. Daughters were more communicative with their mothers and were more affectionate toward both parents than were sons.
Several proposed hypotheses were not supported at all. Males were not more independent nor more satisfied with their independence than the female subjects. Foreclosed youths did not visit home more frequently than the other youths, and individuals who frequently visited home were not less independent nor less affective than those who visited home infrequently.
It was also hypothesized that foreclosed and identity achieved youths would report higher levels of affection, communication, and satisfaction with independence in their relationships with parents than would diffused or moratorium youths. One significant result was that foreclosed youths rated themselves as more affectionate than diffused youths toward their mothers..
Another significant finding was in the area of independence. It was hypothesized that the identity achieved and moratorium youths would be more independent from their parents than would the diffused and foreclosed youths. This hypothesis was supported by the adolescents' self-ratings and partially supported by the fathers' ratings.
Overall, several sex and identity status differences were found. Only one identity status difference was found among the female subjects, while several identity status differences were found among the male subjects. Although no cause-and-effect relationships can be concluded, the results do indicate that differences in the relationships with parents do occur at the same time as identity status differences.

The Day of Archaeology project aimed to provide a window into the daily lives of archaeologists from all over the world. The project asked people working, studying or volunteering in the archaeological world to participate in a 'Day of Archaeology' each year by recording their day and sharing it through text, images or video on the Day of Archaeology blog.
The project asked anyone with a personal, professional or voluntary interest in archaeology to get involved, and help highlight the reasons why archaeology is vital to protect the past and inform our futures. The resulting Day of Archaeology project archive demonstrates the wide variety of work the archaeological profession undertakes day-to-day across the globe, and helps to raise public awareness of the relevance and importance of archaeology to the modern world.
The first ever Day of Archaeology was held in 2011 and, since then, the project had thousands of archaeologists take part in the event, from those working in the field through to specialists working in laboratories and behind computers. The last Day of Archaeology was on Friday 28th July 2017.
title: The Effects of Neutral and Sex-Specific Terminology on Sex Stereotyping

description: A study was conducted to examine the effects of neutral and sex-specific terminology on sex stereotyping in regard to two primary questions: 1) whether or not the use of sex-neutral terminology alters subjects ' associations to particular words, and 2) whether, in the absence of gender identification, subjects make traditional sex-role assumptions about neutral terms. A third questions examined potential differences in male and female subjects' responses to neutral and sex-specific terminology.
Using a semantic differential technique, 40 male and 40 female volunteer subjects described a number of occupations and roles identified by sex-specific or sex-unspecified labels. Descriptions of those identified by sex-specific labels were compared with descriptions of equivalent occupations or roles labelled in a sex-neutral way. Selected descriptions of equivalent occupations not identified by sex were compared to descriptions of equivalent occupations labelled with the sex-specific terms traditionally associated with them.
In analyzing the data obtained, analyses of variance, along with one and two-tailed t-tests were used. Results indicated that subjects did respond differentially to sex-specific and sex-unspecified or neutral terminology. However, no significant differences were found in the responses of male and female subjects, indicating that sex is not a factor in reaction to sex-neutral language of this type. When scores on neutral terms were compared with scores on traditionally sex-specific terms, no significant differences were found. Thus, for roles traditionally associated more with one sex than the other, the use of so-called neutral terms did not appear to decrease sex stereotyping.
