Meanings about the child embodied within kindergarten teachers’ report card slogans
Creators: name: Flodin, Nancy Marilyn
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The purpose of this study was to identify the slogans used by kindergarten teachers when reporting student progress to parents. The meaning of these slogans was defined in terms of the teachers' assumptions about the child. The major question addressed was: What meanings about the child are embodied within the social-emotional slogans used by kindergarten teachers on report cards? A secondary problem arising from the first was: What are the implications for inservice education and for reporting to parents? Social-emotional slogans were identified and interpreted through analysis of fifty report cards collected from twenty-five kindergarten teachers within one large metro school district. Assumptions about the child clustered under three headings: personal attributes, interpersonal relationships, and work habits, yielding six slogan clusters in total. Six teachers were individually interviewed to clarify and refine the researcher's initial meanings. Five additional teachers participated in the final validation of the slogans and meanings. Implications were drawn for inservice education from the teachers' interview experience; and for reporting to parents from the teachers' reflective comments on reporting.

description: Radiation from an ultra-stable 240 GHz solid-state source has been injected, through an isolator, into the cavity of the University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB) MM-wave free-electron laser (FEL). High-power FEL emission, normally distributed among many of the cavity's longitudinal modes, is concentrated into the single mode to which the solid state source has been tuned. The linewidth of the FEL emission is 0.5 MHz, consistent with the Fourier transform limit for the 2 microsecond pulses. This demonstration of frequency-stable, ultra-narrow-band FEL emission is a critical milestone on the road to FEL-based pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy.

description: We have systematically measured resistivity, susceptibility and specific heat under different magnetic fields (H) in Eu$_{1-x}$La$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ single crystals. It is found that a metamagnetic transition from A-type antiferromagnetism to ferromagnetism occurs at a critical field for magnetic sublattice of $Eu^{2+}$. The jump of specific heat is suppressed and shifts to low temperature with increasing H up to the critical value, then shifts to high temperature with further increasing H. Such behavior supports the metamagnetic transition. Detailed H-T phase diagrams for x=0 and 0.15 crystals are given, and possible magnetic structure is proposed. Magnetoresistance measurements indicate that there exists a strong coupling between local moment of $Eu^{2+}$ and charge in Fe-As layer. These results are very significant to understand the underlying physics of FeAs superconductors.

description: With increasing applied current we show that the moving vortex lattice changes its structure from a triangular one to a set of parallel vortex rows in a pinning free superconductor. This effect originates from the change of the shape of the vortex core due to non-equilibrium effects (similar to the mechanism of vortex motion instability in the Larkin-Ovchinnikov theory). The moving vortex creates a deficit of quasiparticles in front of its motion and an excess of quasiparticles behind the core of the moving vortex. This results in the appearance of a wake (region with suppressed order parameter) behind the vortex which attracts other vortices resulting in an effective direction-dependent interaction between vortices. When the vortex velocity $v$ reaches the critical value $v_c$ quasi-phase slip lines (lines with fast vortex motion) appear which may coexist with slowly moving vortices between such lines. Our results are found within the framework of the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations and are strictly valid when the coherence length $ξ(T)$ is larger or comparable with the decay length $L_{in}$ of the non-equilibrium quasiparticle distribution function. We qualitatively explain experiments on the instability of vortex flow at low magnetic fields when the distance between vortices $a \gg L_{in} \gg ξ(T)$. We speculate that a similar instability of the vortex lattice should exist for $v>v_c$ even when $a

Rotation-Resolved Spectroscopy of a Very Young Asteroid, (1270) Datura

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: (1270) Datura is the largest member of a very young asteroid cluster that was thought to be broken-up 0.45 Myr ago. The light-curve and the rotation-resolved reflectance spectra (0.6 um - 1.0 um) were observed in order to find "fresh" surface. Our data show no significant spectral variation along the rotation phase. The depth of the 0.95 um absorption band, which indicates the degree of space weathering, was similar to that of an old S-type asteroid. This suggests that the reflectance spectrum in this wavelength range changes rapidly and saturates the depth of the 0.95 um absorption in less than 0.45 Myr in the main belt environment.

description: High-resolution large-eddy simulation (LES) is exploited to study indoor air turbulence and its effect on the dispersion of respiratory virus-laden aerosols and subsequent transmission risks. The methodology is applied to assess two dissimilar approaches to reduce transmission risks: a strategy to augment the indoor ventilation capacity with portable air purifiers and a strategy to utilize partitioning by exploiting portable space dividers. To substantiate the physical relevance of the LES model, a set of experimental aerosol concentration measurements are carried out, and their results are used for validating the LES model results. The obtained LES dispersion results are subjected to pathogen exposure and infection probability analysis. Wells-Riley probability model is extended to rely on realistic time- and space-dependent concentration fields to yield time- and space-dependent infection probability fields. The use of air purifiers leads to greater reduction in absolute risks compared to the analytical Wells-Riley model, which fails to predict the original risk level. However, the two models do agree on the relative risk reduction. The spatial partitioning strategy is demonstrated to have an undesirable effect when employed without other measures. The partitioning approach may yield positive results when employed together with targeted air purifier units. The LES-based results are examined in juxtaposition with the classical Wells-Riley model, which is shown to significantly underestimate the infection probability, highlighting the importance of employing accurate indoor turbulence modeling when evaluating different risk-reduction strategies.

description: Nonparametric estimators of the mean total cost have been proposed in a variety of settings. In clinical trials it is generally impractical to follow up patients until all have responded, and therefore censoring of patient outcomes and total cost will occur in practice. We describe a general longitudinal framework in which costs emanate from two streams, during sojourn in health states and in transition from one health state to another. We consider estimation of net present value for expenditures incurred over a finite time horizon from medical cost data that might be incompletely ascertained in some patients. Because patient specific demographic and clinical characteristics would influence total cost, we use a regression model to incorporate covariates. We discuss similarities and differences between our net present value estimator and other widely used estimators of total medical costs. Our model can accommodate heteroscedasticity, skewness and censoring in cost data and provides a flexible approach to analyses of health care cost.

description: Archives of the ancient world evince the longevity of our shared interests in preserving and documenting the culture, government, and knowledge of civilization. Whether studied by global travelers, classical archaeologists and historians, or filmmakers and television producers, archival materials from the ancient Mediterranean are contributing to collective memory, educational programming, and institutional collections. In this vein, the Program in Aegean Scripts and Prehistory (PASP) in the Department of Classics at The University of Texas at Austin fosters research and scholarship on the use of writing in Minoan Crete, Mycenaean Greece, and the island of Cyprus during the Bronze Age. There is a special focus on two early writing systems: Linear A and Cretan hieroglyphics (1900–1450 BCE) and Linear B (1400–1200 BCE). The program boasts an international base of researchers and users, and in recent years, staff have improved collection accessibility by reconfiguring physical spaces, advancing digitization projects, preserving endangered email accounts, and expanding the scope of collections to provide better access to these important materials.

Cosmic Microwave Background Statistics for a Direction-Dependent Primordial Power Spectrum

description: Statistical isotropy of primordial perturbations is a common assumption in cosmology, but it is an assumption that should be tested. To this end, we develop cosmic microwave background statistics for a primordial power spectrum that depends on the direction, as well as the magnitude, of the Fourier wavevector. We first consider a simple estimator that searches in a model-independent way for anisotropy in the square of the temperature (and/or polarization) fluctuation. We then construct the minimum-variance estimators for the coefficients of a spherical-harmonic expansion of the direction-dependence of the primordial power spectrum. To illustrate, we apply these statistics to an inflation model with a quadrupole dependence of the primordial power spectrum on direction and find that a power quadrupole as small as 2.0% can be detected with the Planck satellite.

Effect of inter-edge Coulomb interactions on transport through a point contact in a ν= 5/2 quantum Hall state

description: We study transport across a point contact separating two line junctions in a ν= 5/2 quantum Hall system. We analyze the effect of inter-edge Coulomb interactions between the chiral bosonic edge modes of the half-filled Landau level (assuming a Pfaffian wave function for the half-filled state) and of the two fully filled Landau levels. In the presence of inter-edge Coulomb interactions between all the six edges participating in the line junction, the stable fixed point corresponds to a point contact which is neither fully opaque nor fully transparent. Remarkably, this fixed point represents a situation where the half-filled level is fully transmitting, while the two filled levels are completely backscattered; hence the fixed point Hall conductance is given by G_H = {1/2} e^2/h. We predict the non-universal temperature power laws by which the system approaches the stable fixed point from the two unstable fixed points corresponding to the fully connected case (G_H = {5/2} e^2/h) and the fully disconnected case (G_H = 0).

Precise radial velocities of giant stars. III. Spectroscopic stellar parameters
Creators: name: Hekker, S.
name: Meléndez, J.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Context: A radial velocity survey of about 380 G and K giant stars is ongoing at Lick observatory. For each star we have a high signal to noise ratio template spectrum, which we use to determine spectroscopic stellar parameters. Aim: The aim of this paper is to present spectroscopic stellar parameters, i.e. effective temperature, surface gravity, metallicity and rotational velocity for our sample of G and K giant stars. Methods: Effective temperatures, surface gravities and metallicities are determined from the equivalent width of iron lines. Rotational velocities are determined from the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of moderate spectral lines. A calibration between the FWHM and total broadening (rotational velocity and macro turbulence) is obtained from stars in common between our sample and the sample from Gray (1989). Results: The metallicity we derive is essentially equal to the literature values, while the effective temperature and surface gravity are slightly higher by 56 K and 0.15 dex, respectively. Our rotational velocities are comparable with the ones obtained by Gray (1989), but somewhat higher than the ones obtained by de Medeiros & Mayor (1999), consistent with the different diagnostics used. Conclusions: We are able to determine spectroscopic stellar parameters for about 380 G and K giant stars in a uniform way (112 stars are being analysed spectroscopically for the first time). For stars available in the literature, we find reasonable agreement between literature values and values determined in the present work. In addition, we show that the metallicity enhancement of companion hosting stars might also be valid for giant stars, with the planet-hosting giants being 0.13 +/- 0.03 dex (i.e. 35 +/- 10%) more metal-rich than our total sample of stars.

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) have resulted in a breakthrough in very-high energy (VHE) gamma-ray astrophysics. While early IACT installations faced the problem of detecting any sources at all, current instruments are able to see many sources, often over more than two orders of magnitude in energy. As instruments and analysis methods have matured, the requirements for calibration and modelling of physical and instrumental effects have increased. In this article, a set of Monte Carlo simulation tools is described that attempts to include all relevant effects for IACTs in great detail but aims to achieve this in an efficient and flexible way. These tools were originally developed for the HEGRA IACT system and later adapted for the H.E.S.S. experiment. Their inherent flexibility to describe quite arbitrary IACT systems makes them also an ideal tool for evaluating the potential of future installations. It is in use for design studies of CTA and other projects.

description: We present a comprehensive synthesis model for the AGN evolution and the growth of supermassive black holes in the Universe. We solve the continuity equation for SMBH mass function using the locally determined one as a boundary condition, and the hard X-ray luminosity function as tracer of the AGN growth rate distribution, supplemented with a luminosity-dependent bolometric correction and an absorbing column distribution. Differently from most previous semi-analytic and numerical models, we do not assume any specific distribution of Eddington ratios, rather we determine it empirically by coupling the mass and luminosity functions. SMBH show a very broad accretion rate distribution, and we discuss the consequences of this fact for our understanding of observed AGN fractions in galaxies. We confirm previous results and demonstrate that, at least for z<1.5, SMBH mass function evolves anti-hierarchically, i.e. the most massive holes grew earlier and faster than less massive ones. For the first time, we find hints of a reversal of such a downsizing behaviour at redshifts above the peak of the black hole accretion rate density (z~2). We also derive tight constraints on the (mass weighted) average radiative efficiency of AGN: we find that 0.065

description: We study the morphology of the richest superclusters from the catalogues of superclusters of galaxies in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey and compare the morphology of real superclusters with model superclusters in the Millennium Simulation. We use Minkowski functionals and shapefinders to quantify the morphology of superclusters: their sizes, shapes, and clumpiness. We generate empirical models of simple geometry to understand which morphologies correspond to the supercluster shapefinders. We show that rich superclusters have elongated, filamentary shapes with high-density clumps in their core regions. The clumpiness of superclusters is determined using the fourth Minkowski functional $V_3$. In the $K_1$-$K_2$ shapefinder plane the morphology of superclusters is described by a curve which is characteristic to multi-branching filaments. We also find that the differences between the fourth Minkowski functional $V_3$ for the bright and faint galaxies in observed superclusters are larger than in simulated superclusters.

description: We use empirical techniques to interpret the near-infrared colours of a sample of 5800 galaxies drawn from Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) main spectroscopic sample with YJHK photometry from the UK Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) data release one. We study correlations between near-IR colours measured within SDSS fibre and physical parameters derived from the spectra. These parameters include specific star formation rate, stellar age, metallicity and dust attenuation. All correlations are analyzed for samples of galaxies that are closely matched in redshift, in stellar mass and in concentration index. Whereas more strongly star-forming galaxies have bluer optical colours, the opposite is true at near-IR wavelengths -- galaxies with higher specific star formation rate have redder near-IR colours. This result agrees qualitatively with the predictions of models in which Thermally Pulsing Asymptotic Giant Branch (TP-AGB) stars dominate the H and K-band light of a galaxy following a burst of star formation. We also find a surprisingly strong correlation between the near-IR colours of star-forming galaxies and their dust attenuation as measured from the Balmer decrement. Unlike optical colours, however, near-IR colours exhibit very little dependence on galaxy inclination. This suggests that the correlation of near-IR colours with dust attenuation arises because TP-AGB stars are the main source of dust in the galaxy. Finally, we compare the near-IR colours of the galaxies in our sample to the predictions of three different stellar population models: the Bruzual & Charlot 2003 model, a preliminary version of a new model under development by Charlot & Bruzual, which includes a new prescription for AGB star evolution, and the Maraston 2005 model.

description: We investigate the dynamics of Rydberg electrons excited from the ground state of ultracold atoms trapped in an optical lattice. We first consider a lattice comprising an array of double-well potentials, where each double well is occupied by two ultracold atoms. We demonstrate the existence of molecular states with equilibrium distances of the order of experimentally attainable inter-well spacings and binding energies of the order of 10^3 GHz. We also consider the situation whereby ground-state atoms trapped in an optical lattice are collectively excited to Rydberg levels, such that the charge-density distributions of neighbouring atoms overlap. We compute the hopping rate and interaction matrix elements between highly-excited electrons separated by distances comparable to typical lattice spacings. Such systems have tunable interaction parameters and a temperature ~10^{-4} times smaller than the Fermi temperature, making them potentially attractive for the study and simulation of strongly correlated electronic systems.

description: This very extensive codex with the acts of beginning of the Council of Basel (i.e., the years 1431-1435) was written in large part by two hands. One of the hands has been identified as being of Francesco della Croce (1391-1479), who was an envoy from Milan to the Basel Council, and who, among other things, had participated in writing the Council manuscript E I 8. The volume belonged to the Basel Charterhouse and probably in 1590 was transferred to the University Library along with the rest of the convent’s collection.

On the Counter-Rotation of Closed Timelike Curves

description: While it is tempting to think of closed timelike curves (CTCs) around rotating bodies such as a black hole as being "caused" by the rotation of the source, Andréka et al. pointed out that the underlying physics is not as straightforward since such CTCs are "counter-rotating", i.e., the time orientation (the opening of the local light cones) of the CTCs is opposite to the direction in which the singularity or the ergosphere rotates. It was also suggested that this is a generic phenomenon that calls for a deeper intuitive physical understanding. In this short note we point out -- with Kerr-Taub-NUT as an example -- that CTCs are counter-rotating with respect to the local angular velocity of the spacetime, which makes a physical interpretation of CTCs being "caused" by a rotating source even more problematic.

Thurston obstructions and Ahlfors regular conformal dimension

description: Let $f: S^2 \to S^2$ be an expanding branched covering map of the sphere to itself with finite postcritical set $P_f$. Associated to $f$ is a canonical quasisymmetry class $\GGG(f)$ of Ahlfors regular metrics on the sphere in which the dynamics is (non-classically) conformal. We show \[ \inf_{X \in \GGG(f)} \hdim(X) \geq Q(f)=\inf_Γ\{Q \geq 2: λ(f_{Γ,Q}) \geq 1\}.\] The infimum is over all multicurves $Γ\subset S^2-P_f$. The map $f_{Γ,Q}: \R^Γ\to \R^Γ$ is defined by \[ f_{Γ, Q}(γ) =\sum_{[γ']\inΓ} \sum_{δ\sim γ'} °(f:δ\to γ)^{1-Q}[γ'],\] where the second sum is over all preimages $δ$ of $γ$ freely homotopic to $γ'$ in $S^2-P_f$, and $ λ(f_{Γ,Q})$ is its Perron-Frobenius leading eigenvalue. This generalizes Thurston's observation that if $Q(f)>2$, then there is no $f$-invariant classical conformal structure.

Basel, Universitätsbibliothek, F IV 23 : Aristotelica
Publisher: name: e-codices - Virtual Manuscript Library of Switzerland
Year: 2025

description: The manuscript contains various Aristotelian texts, including works by Aristotle as well as commentaries on his texts. The volume came very early in the history of the University Library from the estate of the Basel Professor of Theology Johannes Syber de Wangen (d. 1502). It is still conserved in its original binding, which probably dates from the fourteenth century and was originally a chained volume.

Evidence of Unconventional Universality Class in a Two-Dimensional Dimerized Quantum Heisenberg Model

description: The two-dimensional $J$-$J^\prime$ dimerized quantum Heisenberg model is studied on the square lattice by means of (stochastic series expansion) quantum Monte Carlo simulations as a function of the coupling ratio \hbox{$α=J^\prime/J$}. The critical point of the order-disorder quantum phase transition in the $J$-$J^\prime$ model is determined as \hbox{$α_\mathrm{c}=2.5196(2)$} by finite-size scaling for up to approximately $10 000$ quantum spins. By comparing six dimerized models we show, contrary to the current belief, that the critical exponents of the $J$-$J^\prime$ model are not in agreement with the three-dimensional classical Heisenberg universality class. This lends support to the notion of nontrivial critical excitations at the quantum critical point.

Assessing implementation of a Kodály music program
Creators: name: Randall, Nancy Elisabeth
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The purpose was to assess program-in-use, influences which shaped program-in-use and potential improvements. The case studied was the Kamloops School District Primary Kodaly program. The teachers' perspective was selected - those individuals who translated the intended program into practice - to research the following questions: 1. What is the program-in-use? 2. What facilitated shaping of this program-in-use? 3. What could further improve the implementation of this program-in-use? Three schools were selected to represent a two, four, and six year program- involvement. Interviews were conducted with eleven Kodaly teachers, three teachers who indicated limited or non-use, three school administrators, the Kamloops Koda'ly Program Developer and the Kamloops District Music Co-ordinator. Program development documents and teacher materials were also analyzed. Study findings indicated differing teacher perceptions, diverse programs-in-use and changes in concerns over time.

description: To achieve an accurate assessment of root canal therapy, a fundamental step is to perform tooth root segmentation on oral X-ray images, in that the position of tooth root boundary is significant anatomy information in root canal therapy evaluation. However, the fuzzy boundary makes the tooth root segmentation very challenging. In this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end U-Net like Group Transformer Network (GT U-Net) for the tooth root segmentation. The proposed network retains the essential structure of U-Net but each of the encoders and decoders is replaced by a group Transformer, which significantly reduces the computational cost of traditional Transformer architectures by using the grouping structure and the bottleneck structure. In addition, the proposed GT U-Net is composed of a hybrid structure of convolution and Transformer, which makes it independent of pre-training weights. For optimization, we also propose a shape-sensitive Fourier Descriptor (FD) loss function to make use of shape prior knowledge. Experimental results show that our proposed network achieves the state-of-the-art performance on our collected tooth root segmentation dataset and the public retina dataset DRIVE.

Surface tank-treading: propulsion of Purcell's toroidal swimmer

description: In this work we address the "smoking ring" propulsion technique, originally proposed by E. M. Purcell. We first consider self-locomotion of a doughnut-shaped swimmer powered by surface tank-treading. Different modes of surface motion are assumed and propulsion velocity and swimming efficiency are determined. The swimmer is propelled against the direction of its outer surface motion, the inner surface having very little affect. The simplest swimming mode corresponding to constant angular velocity, can achieve propulsion speeds of up to 66% of the surface tank-treading velocity and swimming efficiency of up to 13%. Higher efficiency is possible for more complicated modes powered by twirling of extensible surface. A potential practical design of a swimmer motivated by Purcell's idea is proposed and demonstrated numerically. Lastly, the explicit solution is found for a two-dimensional swimmer composed of two counter-rotating disks, using complex variable techniques.

description: ? Malletia sp.
Fig. 7B.
Material.— One specimen (ZPAL V.48/11), poorly preserved shell from the upper Paleocene of Fossildalen, Spitsbergen, Svalbard.
Measurements.— ZPAL V.48/11: L, 4.7 mm; H, 3.2 mm; H/L, 0.68.
Description.—Shell small, weakly inflated, elongate-ovate, inequilateral. Surface smooth without fine growth lines. Antero-dorsal margin short, sloping steeply into semicircular anterior margin; postero-dorsal margin long, nearly straight, forming bluntly pointed posterior end with broadly arcuate ventral margin. Beak not very prominent, located at anterior third of shell length.
Remarks.—The investigated specimen is doubtfully classified in Malletia based on its weakly inflated shell and outline. Its outline is very similar to Malletia sp. from the Selandian (middle Paleocene) Katsuhira Formation in eastern Hokkaido, Japan (Amano and Jenkins 2017: fig. 19). However, the present species is smaller and taller than the Katsuhira species (L, 10.4–10.9 mm; H, 5.5–6.4 mm; H/L, 0.53–0.58).
