Praxis, reflexivity and identity: career learning in the undergraduate classroom
Creators: name: Rawes, Kimberley
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: As emerging professionals, students require opportunities to explore aspects of their identity and engage with praxis and phronesis in order to think purposefully about the moral implications of their actions. Biochemistry students learn advanced technical skills that have the potential to change the human and natural world in novel ways, and many of these practices, like gene editing, have unknown long-term consequences. These technical skills are not value neutral, and as emerging professionals, students ought to engage in praxis in order to examine how to act for the greater social good with the skills and knowledge they attain during their degree. Each day in the classroom is an opportunity for praxis where students consider who they are, who they becoming, and how their disciplinary learning informs their professional identity. Praxis combines theoretical and technical understanding with lived experience as a professional and incorporates principled-actions in service of a better world. Phronesis, is a mindset oriented towards the moral and ethical implications of one’s actions as a professional, and it originates from sustained praxis. This research explores the professional identity third-year biochemistry students developed through strengths-based reflection in a laboratory course. The students in this study submitted a reflection about their experiences and learning associated with Gallup’s StrengthsFinder assessment. Critical discourse analysis was applied to interpret their reflections and to identify influences on the development of professional identity. Each student’s submission provided an example of the narratives student’s internalized from their observations and experiences up until this point in their degree. When analyzed together, broader social narratives emerged that depict the importance of student’s sense of agency as emerging professionals. When students name their strengths, they take power of their role in learning and developing their professional identity. Preparing career ready graduates with praxis as professionals transcends skills and job training. It prepares students to be purposeful in their lives and to act with a sense of what is morally right. For this type of career learning to take place, instructors must make intentional choices to include and prioritize professional development in conjunction with disciplinary-content.

description: We propose purely electric manipulation of spin qubits by means of the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) {\it without magnetic field or magnets} in a double-quantum dot. All the unitary transformations can be constructed by the time-dependent Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction between the two spins, which arises from the Rashba SOI modulated by electric field. As a few demonstrations, we study both analytically and numerically the three operations, i.e., (A) the spin initialization, (B) the two-spin rotation in the opposite directions, and (C) the two-spin rotation in the same direction. The effects of the relaxation and the feasibility of this proposal are also discussed.

description: John Neville Keynes uses a diagrammatic method, adapted of Euler’s diagrammatic method, in which the semantic content of a categorical judgment is associated to a proper subset of a set of basic diagrams. Different syllogistics are characterized by different sets of basic diagrams. We compare, by Keynesian diagrammatic method, three syllogistics (all of them with existential presupposition and with “non universal” presupposition of terms) as to validity of immediate inferences: the syllogistic without negative terms, the syllogistic with negative terms in which a term and its corresponding negative term complement each other in relation to the universe of discourse, and the syllogistic with negative terms in which a term and its corresponding negative term does not necessarily complement each other in relation to the universe of discourse.

description: The field of experimental particle physics has become more sophisticated over time, as fewer, larger experimental collaborations search for small signals in samples with large components of background. The search for and the observation of electroweak single top quark production by the CDF and DZero collaborations at Fermilab's Tevatron collider are an example of an elaborate effort to measure the rate of a very rare process in the presence of large backgrounds and to learn about the properties of the top quark's weak interaction. We present here the techniques used to make this groundbreaking measurement and the interpretation of the results in the context of the Standard Model.

Action, Deviance, and Guidance
Creators: name: Di Nucci, Ezio
Publisher: name: abstracta
Year: 2021

description: I argue that we should give up the fight to rescue causal theories of action from fundamental challenges such as the problem of deviant causal chains; and that we should rather pursue an account of action based on the basic intuition that control identifies agency. In Section 1 I introduce causalism about action explanation. In Section 2 I present an alternative, Frankfurt’s idea of guidance. In Section 3 I argue that the problem of deviant causal chains challenges causalism in two important respects: first, it emphasizes that causalism fails to do justice to our basic intuition that control is necessary for agency. Second, it provides countless counterexamples to causalism, which many recent firemen have failed to extinguish – as I argue in some detail. Finally, in Section 4 I argue, contra Al Mele, that control does not require the attribution of psychological states as causes.

The Two-Component Theory of Proper Names and Kripke’s Puzzle
Creators: name: Liu, JeeLoo
Publisher: name: abstracta
Year: 2021

description: This paper provides a defense of the description theory of proper names by constructing a ‘two-component’ theory of names. Using Kripke’s puzzle about belief as the stepping stone, this paper first points out problems with Kripke’s direct reference theory of names. It then presents the two-component theory of names and defends it against Kripke’s general criticisms of the description theory. It also compares the two-component theory of names against other leading description theories and shows how the two-component theory provides a better analysis of names. The paper offers a comprehensive summary of the debate between the description theory and the direct reference theory of names. At the end, it shows how the two-component theory of names can deal with Kripke’s puzzle and more.

description: Since 1998, genetically engineered Bt maize varieties expressing the insecticidal Cry1Ab protein (i.e. event MON 810) have been grown in the European Union (EU), mainly in Spain. These varieties confer resistance against the European and Mediterranean corn borer (ECB and MCB), which are the major lepidopteran maize pests in the EU, particularly in Mediterranean areas. However, widespread, repeated and exclusive use of Bt maize is anticipated to increase the risk of Cry1Ab resistance to evolve in corn borer populations. To delay resistance evolution, typically, refuges of non-Bt maize are planted near or adjacent to, or within Bt maize fields. Moreover, changes in Cry1Ab susceptibility in field populations of corn borers and unexpected damage to maize MON 810, due to corn borers, are monitored on an annual basis. After two decades of Bt maize cultivation in Spain, neither resistant corn borer populations nor farmer complaints on unexpected field damage have been reported. However, whether the resistance monitoring strategy followed in Spain, currently based on discriminating concentration bioassays, is sufficiently sensitive to timely detect early warning signs of resistance in the field remains a point of contention. Moreover, the Cry1Ab resistance allele frequency to Bt maize, which has recently been estimated in MCB populations from north-eastern Spain, might exceed that recommended for successful resistance management. To ensure Bt maize durability in Spain, it is key that adequate resistance management approaches, including monitoring of resistance and farmer compliance with refuge requirements, continue to be implemented and are incorporated in integrated pest management schemes.

description: We investigate the spin-polarization of the ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As by point contact Andreev reflection spectroscopy. The conductance spectra are analyzed using a recent theoretical model that accounts for momentum- and spin-dependent scattering at the interface. This allows us to fit the data without resorting, as in the case of the standard spin-dependent Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk (BTK) model, to an effective temperature or a statistical distribution of superconducting gaps. We find a transport polarization PC{\approx}57%, in considerably better agreement with the k{\cdot}p kinetic-exchange model of (Ga,Mn)As, than the significantly larger estimates inferred from the BTK model. The temperature dependence of the conductance spectra is fully analyzed.

description: We show that integrability and symmetries of the near horizon geometry of the D1-D5 system determine the S-matrix for the scattering of magnons with polarizations in AdS3 $\times$ S3 completely up to a phase. Using semi-classical methods we evaluate the phase to the leading and to the one-loop approximation in the strong coupling expansion. We then show that the phase obeys the unitarity constraint implied by the crossing relations to the one-loop order. We also verify that the dispersion relation obeyed by these magnons is one-loop exact at strong coupling which is consistent with their BPS nature.

The Rise and Fall of Disjunctivism
Creators: name: Horn, Walter
Publisher: name: abstracta
Year: 2021

description: In the direct realist tradition of Reid and Austin, disjunctivism has joined its precursors in proudly trumpeting its allegiance with naïve realism. And the theory gains plausibility, particularly as compared with adverbialism, if one considers a Wittgensteinian line of argument regarding the use of sensation words. But ‘no common factor’ doctrines can be shown to be inconsistent with the naïve realism that has served as their main support. This does not mean that either disjunctivism or the Wittgensteinian perspective on language acquisition that informed it must be false. It does indicate, however, that linguistic arguments against private or internal meanings do not imply perceptual directness and that the espousal of direct realism—naïve or not—does not require adherence to disjunctivism.

Modification of roton instability due to the presence of a second dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate

Subjects: subject: Quantum Gases (cond-mat.quant-gas)

description: We study the behavior of two coupled purely dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates, each located in a cylindrically symmetric pancake-shaped external confining potential, as the separation b between the traps along the tight confining direction is varied. The solutions of the coupled Gross-Pitaevskii and Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations, which account for the full dynamics, show that the system behavior is modified by the presence of the second dipolar BEC. For sufficiently small b, the presence of the second dipolar BEC destabilizes the system dramatically. In this regime, the coupled system collapses through a mode that is notably different from the radial roton mode that induces the collapse of the uncoupled system. Finally, we comment on the shortcomings of an approach that neglects the dynamics in the z-direction, which is assumed to be a good approximation for highly pancake-shaped dipolar BECs in the literature.

On Normative Practical Reasoning
Creators: name: Spielthenner, Georg
Publisher: name: abstracta
Year: 2021

description: This article offers an analysis of normative practical reasoning. Reasoning of this type includes at least one normative belief and it has a practical conclusion (roughly, a conclusion about what to do). The principal question I am interested in is whether this type of practical reasoning can be logically conclusive. This issue has received remarkably little philosophical discussion despite the central role this reasoning plays in our everyday discourse about action and in the resolution of ethical problems. I distinguish three kinds of normative reasons. Quasi-normative reasoning, I maintain in Section 1, can only be valid if it is in fact theoretical reasoning, despite appearance to the contrary. In Section 2, I argue that there are two kinds of genuine normative reasoning (purely normative reasoning and hybrid reasoning) that can be logically conclusive. This article also shows that practical arguments are non-trivially ambiguous (which has been largely ignored in the literature) because they can at the same time express different pieces of practical reasoning that have a different logical status.

description: In a recent paper published in this journal, Almeida and collaborators [Phys. Rev. D \textbf{79}, 125022 (2009)] analyze the issue of fermion localization of fermions on a brane constructed from two scalar fields coupled with gravity (Bloch brane model). In this meritorious research the simplest Yukawa coupling $η\barΨϕχΨ$ was considered. In that work does not analyze the zero mode in details. In this paper, the localization of fermions on two-field thick branes is reinvestigated. It is found that the simplest Yukawa coupling does not support the localization of fermions on the brane. In addition, the problem of fermion localization for some other Yukawa couplings are analyzed. It is shown that the zero mode for left-handed and right-handed fermions can be localized on the brane depending on the values for the coupling constant $η$ and the Bloch brane's parameter $a$.

Forty-six participants verified the relation between property words and concept words. The conceptual modality of consecutive trials was manipulated in order to produce an Auditory-to-visual switch condition, a Haptic-to-visual switch condition, and a Visual-to-visual, no-switch condition. Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) were time-locked to the onset of the first word (property) in the target trials so as to measure the effect online and to avoid a within-trial confound. A switch effect was found, characterized by more negative ERP amplitudes for modality switches than no-switches. It proved significant in four typical time windows from 160 to 750 milliseconds post word onset, with greater strength in posterior brain regions, and after 350 milliseconds. These results suggest that conceptual processing may be modality-specific in certain tasks, but also that the early stage of processing is relatively amodal.ReferencesCollins, J., Pecher, D., Zeelenberg, R., & Coulson, S.

Removal of soluble selenium in the presence of nitrate from coal mining-influenced water
Creators: name: Nkansah-Boadu, Frank
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: Biological treatment to remove dissolved selenium from mining-influenced water (MIW) is inhibited by co-contaminants, especially nitrate. It was hypothesized that selenium reducing microorganisms can be obtained from native mine bacteria at sites affected by MIW due to the selection pressure from elevated selenium concentrations at those sites. Enrichment of these microorganisms and testing of their capacity to remove dissolved selenium from actual coal MIW was the objective of this dissertation. Fifteen sediments were collected from eleven different vegetated or non-vegetated seepage collection ponds and one non-impacted natural wetland. Nine sediments achieved greater than 90% dissolved selenium removal within 72 hours when inoculated into selenate-reducing bacteria growth medium. To find microorganisms capable of removing dissolved selenium in the presence of nitrate, six of the sediments were inoculated into two different types of growth media; one with selenate as the sole electron acceptor and the other with both nitrate and selenate as electron acceptors. Both media were otherwise identical and contained lactate as the electron donor. Decrease in dissolved selenium concentration was observed in all enrichments, but the effect of nitrate on the rate and extent of removal was variable. Nitrate inhibited dissolved selenium removal rates in four of the enrichments. However, in one instance, microorganisms enriched from a natural vegetated marsh receiving coal MIW (Goddard Marsh) were not inhibited by nitrate and the dissolved selenium removal rates were similar in both media. In another instance, the presence of nitrate enhanced dissolved selenium removal by enrichments from a pond receiving coal mine waste seepage (Lagoon A). When enrichments from Lagoon A and Goddard Marsh, respectively, were tested for dissolved selenium removal from actual coal MIW, the former achieved greater (40%) than the latter (10%). Through 16S and whole genome sequencing studies, species capable of removing selenate in the enrichments were classified as Bacteroides, Serratia, Clostridium and Methanosarcina. However, most of these species did not survive in the MIW. The dominant species in the MIW were classified as Sulfurospirillium, Veillonella, Pseudomonas and Bacteroides, which were shown to be capable of reducing selenium, based on putative metagenome assembled genomes (MAGs) obtained for these species.

When $deg(A)\leq 4$ and $deg(B) \leq 4$, using the so-called C-algorithm we found $36$ new families of isochronous centers.

Mental Causation and the New Compatibilism
Creators: name: Harbecke, Jens
Publisher: name: abstracta
Year: 2021

description: Twenty years ago Stephen Yablo developed his original theory of mental causation, which has drawn much attention ever since. By providing a detailed reconstruction of Yablo’s approach, this paper first demonstrates that a certain line of critique that has repeatedly been brought forward against Yablo over the last two decades misconstrues the core idea of the model. At the same time, the reconstruction reveals that Yablo’s approach is probably the first explicit version of the “new compatibilism” within the philosophy of mind. This fairly young family of theories essentially claims a non-identity as well as a non-distinctness of mental and physical phenomena. The second part of the paper then demonstrates that the new compatibilist approaches in general, and Yablo’s theory in particular, even though they can resist much of the popular criticism, fall prey to a new theoretical trilemma once the nature of the respective analysantia is made explicit. Finally, a model of the psychophysical relation is developed that may allow the new compatibilists to escape the mentioned trilemma

description: While the fundamental object in Riemannian geometry is a metric, closed string theories call for us to put a two-form gauge field and a scalar dilaton on an equal footing with the metric. Here we propose a novel differential geometry which treats the three objects in a unified manner, manifests not only diffeomorphism and one-form gauge symmetry but also O(D,D) T-duality, and enables us to rewrite the known low energy effective action of them as a single term. Further, we develop a corresponding vielbein formalism and gauge the internal symmetry which is given by a direct product of two local Lorentz groups, SO(1,D-1) times SO(1,D-1). We comment that the notion of cosmological constant naturally changes.

description: In inflationary models, the predicted amplitude of primordial density perturbations Q is much larger than the observed value (~10^{-5}) for natural choices of parameters. To explain the requisite exponential fine-tuning, anthropic selection is often invoked, especially in cases where microphysics is expected to produce a complex energy landscape. By contrast, we find examples of ekpyrotic models based on heterotic M-theory for which dynamical selection naturally favors the observed value of Q.

Being and Becoming in the Theory of Group Agency
Creators: name: Townsend, Leo
Publisher: name: abstracta
Year: 2021

description: This paper explores a bootstrapping puzzle which appears to afflict Philip Pettit’s theory of group agency. Pettit claims that the corporate persons recognised by his theory come about when a set of individuals ‘gets its act together’ by undertaking to reason at the collective level. But this is puzzling, because it is hard to see how the step such a collective must take to become a group agent – the collectivisation of reason – can be taken without them already being an agent. I explore this puzzle by recounting Pettit’s account of the emergence of group agents. According to Pettit this process has two stages: a first stage in which a collective incurs the distinctive pressure exemplified by the Doctrinal Paradox, and a second in which the collective responds to that pressure by instituting decision-making mechanisms designed to secure collective rationality. After arguing that this second, response stage in Pettit’s account is not coherent, I conclude with the tentative suggestion that the personhood of groups should be seen as depending not only on the efforts of group members but also on the recognitive attitudes of other persons in a wider discursive community.

Direct versus Delayed pathways in Strong-Field Non-Sequential Double Ionization

description: We report full-dimensionality quantum and classical calculations for double ionization of laser-driven helium at 390 nm. Good qualitative agreement is observed. We show that the classical double ionization trajectories can be divided into two distinct pathways: direct and delayed. The direct pathway, with an almost simultaneous ejection of both electrons, emerges from small laser intensities. With increasing intensity its relative importance, compared to the delayed ionization pathway, increases until it becomes the predominant pathway for total electron escape energy below around 5.25 $U_{p}$. However the delayed pathway is the predominant one for double ionization above a certain cut-off energy at all laser intensities.

title: Mechanisms Regulating Abortive Infection by CRISPR – Cas12a2

Publisher: name: Utah State University

description: In the wake of the 2020 COVID19 pandemic, we have become acutely aware of the threat caused by viral infection. Humans are not alone in being threatened by viruses. Bacteria are under constant attack from viruses and have had to develop elaborate defense systems to protect themselves. As we learn about how bacteria defend themselves against viruses, we discover new biological pathways that can be repurposed as human technologies. One example is the bacterial immune system CRISPR – Cas9, which most think of as a genome editing tool. Here I describe a new immune system, CRISPR – Cas12a2 whose unique biochemical activity could be used for selective cell killing applications in biotechnology, agriculture and medicine.
The Total Errors In Measuring Epeak for Gamma-Ray Bursts

description: While Epeak has been extensively used in the past, for example with luminosity indicators, it has not been thoroughly examined for possible sources of scatter. In the literature, the reported error bars for Epeak are the simple Poisson statistical errors. Additional uncertainties arise due to the choices made by analysts in determining Epeak (e.g., the start and stop times of integration), imperfect knowledge of the response of the detector, different energy ranges for various detectors, and differences in models used to fit the spectra. We examine the size of these individual sources of scatter by comparing many independent pairs of published Epeak values for the same bursts. Indeed, the observed scatter in multiple reports of the same burst (often with the same data) is greatly larger than the published statistical error bars. We measure that the one-sigma uncertainty associated with the analyst's choices is 28%, i.e., 0.12 in Log10(Epeak), with the resultant errors always being present. The errors associated with the detector response are negligibly small. The variations caused by commonly-used alternative definitions of Epeak (such as present in all papers and in all compiled burst lists) is typically 23%-46%, although this varies substantially with the application. The implications of this are: (1) Even the very best measured Epeak values will have systematic uncertainties of 28%. (2) Thus, GRBs have a limitation in accuracy for a single event, with this being reducible by averaging many bursts. (3) The typical one-sigma total uncertainty for collections of bursts is 55%. (4) We also find that the width of the distribution for Epeak in the burst frame must be near zero, implying that some mechanism must exist to thermostat GRBs. (5) Our community can only improve on this situation by using collections of bursts which all have identical definitions for the Epeak calculation.
