description: Los aportes que Jesús Antonio Bejarano dedica a los intentos por difundir las técnicas modernas en la agricultura durante el siglo XIX y principios del XX son de suma importancia, por la riqueza conceptual en la que se sustentan; dichos trabajos se han proyectado desde el plano nacional y se han convertido en los ejes conceptuales de las investigaciones que tocan dicho espacio, que por lo general nacen de científicos aficionados y no exactamente de historiadores profesionales, en las palabras de Diana Obregón.

description: The chiral plasmon modes of relativistic matter in background magnetic and strain-induced pseudomagnetic fields are studied in detail using the consistent chiral kinetic theory. The results reveal a number of anomalous features of these chiral magnetic and pseudomagnetic plasmons that could be used to identify them in experiment. In a system with nonzero electric (chiral) chemical potential, the background magnetic (pseudomagnetic) fields not only modify the values of the plasmon frequencies in the long-wavelength limit, but also affect the qualitative dependence on the wave vector. Similar modifications can be also induced by the chiral shift parameter in Weyl materials. Interestingly, even in the absence of the chiral shift and external fields, the chiral chemical potential alone leads to a splitting of plasmon energies at linear order in the wave vector.

On the new braking index of PSR B0540-69: further support for magnetic field growth of neutron stars following submergence by fallback accretion
Creators: name: Ekşi, K. Yavuz
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The magnetic fields of the nascent neutron stars could be submerged in the crust by rapid fallback accretion and could diffuse to the surface later in life. According to this field burial scenario young pulsars may have growing magnetic fields, a process known to result with less-than-three braking indices; larger braking indices implying longer field-growth time-scales. A nascent neutron star with a larger kick velocity would accrete less amount of matter leading to a shallower burial of its field and a more rapid field growth. Such an inverse relation between the field growth time-scale inferred from the braking indices and space velocity of pulsars was claimed in the past as a prediction of the field-burial scenario. With a braking index of $n\sim 2$ and large space velocity PSR~B0540--69 was then an outlier in the claimed relation. The object recently made a transition to a rapid spin-down state accompanied by a low braking index. This new braking index implies a much shorter time-scale for the field growth which is consistent with the high space velocity of the object, in better agreement with the claimed relation. This observation lends support to the field burial scenario and implies that the growth of the magnetic field does not proceed at a constant pace but is slowed or completely halted at times. The slow spin-down state associated with the high braking index before 2011 which lasted for at least about 30 years was then such an episode of slow field growth.

Year: 2018

description: The Project 'Effect of Agile Software Development Practices on Scope Management: The case of JSI (John snow Inc.)' begins by raising the question how projects are managed at JSI. Due to cost and time constraints the scope of this study is delimited to JSI delivered projects only. The research method used after thorough literature review is open ended interview and participatory observation. The sampling method used is a purposive non-random sampling. The participants are selected from the management information system team including project manager, senior software developers, software developers, product managers, analysists, and hub it supports. The qualitative data analysis is done from the input from participants and literatures reviews. The main findings are that JSI delivered and is delivering software's currently in use by the health sector. It follows agile software development, and it helps for a flexible scope management purpose. The main factors for agile software development related to scope management are Development guide by test, Objective documentation, Small teams led by the facilitator, Features defined by the customer, Stand-up meetings, Frequent releases and Lead-programmer. Finally, further research is recommended not only in the area of scope management but also agile software development practice in Ethiopian context, as this study doesn't cover it all.

description: The TURNkey FWCR (Forecasting – Early Warning – Consequence Prediction – Response) platform is a multi-sensor-based earthquake information system, facilitating earthquake forecasting and enabling early warning and rapid response actions. The FWCR platform has been designed to be based on conventional networks and smartphone-based networks and a cloud-based computer system, which can be distributed as a fully operational TURNkey product to public authorities/decision-makers (e.g., disaster management authorities, political authorities), first responders (e.g., civil protection, search-and-rescue teams, emergency medical services) and private companies (including operators of critical infrastructure) and general businesses (including the insurance industry). This platform can assist the identified stakeholders to react at the earliest stage to earthquakes and to reduce the direct and indirect (follow-up) impacts and consequences. The present document describes the general concept and the functionalities of the platform and specifies the instrumentation setup, the scientific engines setup, and the cloud-based graphical user interface setup. Moreover, a demonstration for a hypothetical site of interest is included to show the available functionalities and the platform’s potential impact on earthquake disaster management.
A frustrated honeycomb-bilayer Heisenberg antiferromagnet: The spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ $J_{1}$--$J_{2}$--$J_{1}^{\perp}$ model

description: We use the coupled cluster method to study the zero-temperature quantum phase diagram of the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ $J_{1}$--$J_{2}$--$J_{1}^{\perp}$ model on the honeycomb bilayer lattice. In each layer we include both nearest-neighbor and frustrating next-nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic exchange couplings, of strength $J_{1}>0$ and $J_{2} \equiv κJ_{1} > 0$, respectively. The two layers are coupled by an interlayer nearest-neighbor exchange, with coupling constant $J_{1}^{\perp} \equiv δJ_{1}>0$. We calculate directly in the infinite-lattice limit both the ground-state energy per spin and the Néel magnetic order parameter, as well as the triplet spin gap. By implementing the method to very high orders of approximation we obtain an accurate estimate for the full boundary of the Néel phase in the $κδ$ plane. For each value $δ< δ_{c}^{>}(0) \approx 1.70(5)$ we find an upper critical value $κ_{c}(δ)$, such that Néel order is present for $κ< κ_{c}(δ)$. Conversely, for each value $κ< κ_{c}(0) \approx 0.19(1)$ we find an upper critical value $δ_{c}^{>}(κ)$, such that Néel order persists for $0 < δ< δ_{c}^{>}(κ)$. Most interestingly, for values of $κ$ in the range $κ_{c}(0) < κ< κ^{>} \approx 0.215(2)$ we find a reentrant behavior such that Néel order exists only in the range $δ_{c}^{}(κ)$, with $δ_{c}^{0$. These latter upper and lower critical values coalesce when $κ= κ^{>}$, such that $δ_{c}^{}) = δ_{c}^{>}(κ^{>}) \approx 0.25(5)$.

description: Applying the techniques developed in [AGG], we construct new real hyperbolic manifolds whose underlying topology is that of a disc bundle over a closed orientable surface. By the Gromov-Lawson-Thurston conjecture [GLT], such bundles $M\to S$ should satisfy the inequality $|eM/χS|\leqslant1$, where $eM$ stands for the Euler number of the bundle and $χS$, for the Euler characteristic of the surface. In this paper, we construct new examples that provide a maximal value of $|eM/χS|=\frac35$ among all known examples. The former maximum, belonging to Feng Luo [Luo], was $|eM/χS|=\frac12$.

A COMPARISON OF FASTPITCH SOFTBALL BAT PERFORMANCE USING ACCELERATED, ILLEGAL, AND NATURAL MEANS

Subjects: performance

ultrasonic inspection

description: Fast pitch softball is a popular and growing sport. High performance softball bats are hollow and often made from one or multiple shells of fiber reinforced composite materials. Composite bats can soften or break-in and increase their performance with use. There are three common break in methods: accelerated break-in for certification (rolling), natural break-in by hitting (hitting), and illegal rolling by bat doctors (bat doctoring). In 2005 illegal bat alteration resulted in a 4% increase in bat performance.
description: This study has three aims: to analyze the effect of break-in treatment on bat damage; to characterize the life of hit bats and compare them to rolled bats; and to investigate the effect of current bat doctor treatments on the batted ball speed and bat barrel stiffness.
description: Bats underwent three different treatments – rolling according to the certification standard, automated hitting in a laboratory setting, and bat doctoring by a third party. Ultrasonic inspection was used to non-destructively examine the damage in each composite bat. Bat performance changes were characterized by the batted ball speed and barrel compression measurements.
description: Ultrasonic images showed different damage signatures for the three treatments. Rolling caused long delaminations down the length of the bat. Hitting caused localized impact damage in the form of ultrasonic attenuation. Bat doctoring did not cause observable damage. The batted ball speed and barrel compression were measured over the life of the bat. Comparing rolled and hit bats showed no statistically significant difference between the performance increases of these two treatments. Bat doctoring did not cause any performance increases.
description: While rolling and hitting produced different structural damage, their similar performance showed that current bat altering methods are relatively benign.

An Examination of Predictors of Rising Jail Incarceration in Rural Counties
Creators: name: Yokley, Sandra
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2022

description: Despite the extensive amount of research available on incarceration, extraordinarily little is known about the causes of variations in jail incarceration across the United States, with even less known about the effect of county urbanicity on local jail populations despite emerging trends. Prior research at the cross-national and national level indicate that right political dominance is significantly associated with higher incarceration rates. I apply this political perspective to the local level of analysis. Using “percent vote republican” by county in the presidential election of 2016 as a measure of right political dominance, I examine the extent to which conservative political attitudes captured in the voting behaviors of the adults that make up the county predict total jail population rates. I also assess the extent to which other theoretical perspectives related to economics, crime, and demographics can be used to explain the relationship between rurality and rising jail incarceration rates. The findings suggest that while rural areas do not incarcerate more of their population because of conservative political attitudes, they do incarcerate more of their population because they have weaker economic bases than do non-rural.

description: In the field of automated image recognition, computer vision or artificial ‘intelligence,’ the ImageNet data collection plays a central role as a training dataset. For the research project Training The Archive, which aims to make digital humanities methods available for the curating of art, the extent to which ImageNet influences the software prototype The Curator’s Machine is discussed. The Curator’s Machine is designed to facilitate the discovery of relationships and connections between artworks for curators. The text explains how ImageNet, anchored in contemporary image worlds, acts on contemporary and historical artworks by 1) examining the absence of the classification ‘art’ in ImageNet, 2) questioning ImageNet’s lack of historicity, and 3) discussing the relationship between texture and outline in ImageNet-based automated image recognition. This research is important for the genealogical, art historical, and coding related usage of ImageNet in the fields of curating, art history, art studies and digital humanities.

description: Anthropogenic effects on the space environment started in the late 19th century and reached their peak in the 1960s when high-altitude nuclear explosions were carried out by the USA and the Soviet Union. These explosions created artificial radiation belts near Earth that resulted in major damages to several satellites. Another, unexpected impact of the high-altitude nuclear tests was the electromagnetic pulse (EMP) that can have devastating effects over a large geographic area (as large as the continental United States). Other anthropogenic impacts on the space environment include chemical release ex- periments, high-frequency wave heating of the ionosphere and the interaction of VLF waves with the radiation belts. This paper reviews the fundamental physical process behind these phenomena and discusses the observations of their impacts.

description: Context. Radio-loud AGNs with powerful relativistic jets are thought to be associated with rapidly spinning black holes (BHs). BH spin-up may result from a number of processes, including accretion of matter onto the BH itself, and catastrophic events such as BH-BH mergers. Aims. We study the intriguing properties of the powerful (L_bol ~ 10^47 erg s^-1) radio-loud quasar 3C 186. This object shows peculiar features both in the images and in the spectra. Methods. We utilize near-IR Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images to study the properties of the host galaxy, and HST UV and Sloan Digital Sky Survey optical spectra to study the kinematics of the source. Chandra X-ray data are also used to better constrain the physical interpretation. Results. HST imaging shows that the active nucleus is offset by 1.3 +- 0.1 arcsec (i.e. ~11 kpc) with respect to the center of the host galaxy. Spectroscopic data show that the broad emission lines are offset by -2140 +-390 km/s with respect to the narrow lines. Velocity shifts are often seen in QSO spectra, in particular in high-ionization broad emission lines. The host galaxy of the quasar displays a distorted morphology with possible tidal features that are typical of the late stages of a galaxy merger. Conclusions. A number of scenarios can be envisaged to account for the observed features. While the presence of a peculiar outflow cannot be completely ruled out, all of the observed features are consistent with those expected if the QSO is associated with a gravitational wave (GW) recoiling BH. Future detailed studies of this object will allow us to confirm this type of scenario and will enable a better understanding of both the physics of BH-BH mergers and the phenomena associated with the emission of GW from astrophysical sources.

description: The purpose of this research is to assess the management competency of project managers in the case of condominium housing project. The research purposefully takes the population which only found in projects in Bole Arabsa project Addis Ababa. Both primary and secondary data were collected to achieve the intended research questions and objectives. Data collected using both quantitative and qualitative methods. Specifically, questionnaires and semi-structured interviews to key informants were employed as instruments of data collection. The respondents were all project managers and site engineers who are involved managing the project. 20 Questionnaires were distributed to project site engineers. The interviews were conducted with 5 project managers of the different sub project groups in the same site. The findings of this study revealed that: project managers of the site are more in to the technical skills competency rather than the behavioral. The combination of both soft and hard skills was lacking in the project. The project managers have good knowledge and understanding about what is the overall management competency and goal of the housing project but couldn't apply their knowledge due to different reasons. The research findings show that there is no time centered training for its employees and no induction training for new employees. If any, company mostly focuses on technical skill trainings. The findings also support among different types of project competency the project manages under Bole Arabsa Condominium Housing project has shown less function on Self-development, Personal Integrity and systemic integration compared to the other competency. Consequently, implementing strong accountability, strengthen auditing and controlling system, improving working procedure, giving deep training on project management core competency and timely assessment and evaluation of project managers on their performance etc. are recommended as remedy to solve the problem in housing projects.

description: An important problem in precision cosmology is the determination of the effects of averaging and backreaction on observational predictions, particularly in view of the wealth of new observational data and improved statistical techniques. In this paper, we discuss the observational viability of a class of averaged cosmologies which consist of a simple parametrized phenomenological two-scale backreaction model with decoupled spatial curvature parameters. We perform a Bayesian model selection analysis and find that this class of averaged phenomenological cosmological models is favored with respect to the standard $Λ$CDM cosmological scenario when a joint analysis of current SNe Ia and BAO data is performed. In particular, the analysis provides observational evidence for non-trivial spatial curvature.

description: Tópicos para la alopecia androgénica son comúnmente utilizados para tratamientos estéticos, donde los residuos de estos mismos son vertidos por desagües sin ningún tipo de tratamiento previo, sin considerar los efectos adversos que esto pueda generar sobre el ambiente marino y terrestre al acumularse en fuentes hídricas, hogar de muchas especies de plantas y animales. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar los efectos de tres tópicos diferentes para alopecia androgénica que contienen minoxidil, sobre el modelo biológico de Caenorhabditis elegans. Para ello se expusieron los nematodos C. elegans a diferentes concentraciones con los tópicos (0,01; 0,1; 1; y 10 ppm) y se evaluaron los puntos finales de mortalidad, crecimiento, reproducción, acumulación lipídica y genes relacionados con estrés oxidativo y shock térmico (sod-4, gpx-4, gpx-6, hsp-3). Los resultados mostraron mayores efectos adversos en las concentraciones más altas (1 y 10 ppm), al causar los porcentajes más altos de mortalidad y reducción de la longitud corporal, principalmente en aquellos gusanos expuestos al tópico 3. El estrés oxidativo fue más evidente en los tópicos que presentaron menos aditivos, mostrando sobreexpresión principalmente en los genes sod-4 y gpx-6. Además, la acumulación lipídica fue notoria principalmente en las concentraciones 0,01 y 0,1 ppm. Sin embargo, en todos los tratamientos se observó acumulación lipídica. Lo anterior indica que los tópicos para alopecia androgénica con presencia de minoxidil afectan la vitalidad del nematodo alterando funciones como el crecimiento y el metabolismo de lípidos, además actúan con agentes estresores al causar sobre expresión de genes reguladores de estrés oxidativo. La descarga de estos tópicos al ambiente puede generar un impacto negativo sobre los ecosistemas al afectar la vitalidad de seres vivos como C. elegans.
Novel electric field effects on Landau levels in multi- Weyl semimetals

description: Multi-Weyl semimetals(WSMs) have an anisotropic non-linear dispersion along a 2-D plane and a linear dispersion in an orthogonal direction. They have topological charge $\lq n $' and are created when two or multiple Weyl points or nodes with nonzero net monopole charge are brought together onto a high-symmetry point. We study the perturbation corrections up to second order of such multi-WSMs in crossed electric($\mathcal{E}$) and magnetic (B) fields in the low electric field approximation. As a result, the first order correction lifts only n-fold degeneracy of the lowest Landau levels(LLs) while the higher Landau levels are modified due to the second order perturbation. We study the signatures of these corrections due to electric fields on the density of states (DOS) subjected to a magnetic field.

description: The main purpose of the study was to identify and evaluate the challenges encountered through project management practices in Ethiopian Airports Infrastructure development projects. The study aims to point out these difficulties and thus improve the project management practice in order to benefit from the findings. A descriptive research method was used in order to achieve the intended purpose of the study. Questionnaire, interview and review were used for the purpose of collecting required data for the study. The Questionnaire survey were collected from the Ethiopian Airport employees who are directly involved in infrastructure development project planning, Executing and controlling. Purposive sampling technique was employed in selecting the samples. The data were analyzed using software Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS V.20) to generate mean, frequencies, standard deviation and percentages of the statics. The study found out that among 45 challenging factors identified in the literature participants are agreed on 18 factors as a significant challenge in projects they have been involved recently. Again ten of the identified factors are the major significant challenging factors these are; These are Lack of Project Management Skills and training in project management; Unexpected events with no effective response possible; Project schedule delays; Changing requirements late in the project and continuing change requests; Low commitment of Stakeholders towards planned projects; Failure to manage expectations; Poor risk management; Not obtaining stakeholder approval; Low commitment of Stakeholders towards planned projects; Lack of clearly defined Rules and procedures for project management. Furthermore, the study revealed that factors within four knowledge areas including Enterprise Environmental factors are significantly challenged; these are Project Risk Management, Project Schedule Management, Project Stakeholder management and Project Scope Management. Therefore, based on the findings, it is suggested that stronger emphasis should be given on the major challenges identified in the study, appropriate project management methodology should be adopted and all factors should be studied carefully.

title: Limited Prosocial Emotions as a Specifier for ODD

description: The limited prosocial emotions (LPE) specifier, also referred to as callous-unemotional traits, was added to the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) as a specifier for conduct disorder (CD). More recently, the LPE specifier was added to the 11th edition of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) as a specifier for Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). Little research has evaluated the usefulness of LPE as a specifier for ODD, especially in comparison to its usefulness as a specifier for CD. For LPE to be a useful specifier for ODD, it is necessary for distinct ODD and ODD + LPE clinical groups to exist and for the groups to show different patterns/severity of psychopathology and impairment. This issue was evaluated in a community sample of 1,733 third-to-sixth grade Spanish children from the Balearic Islands. Mothers, fathers, and teachers completed measures of LPE, ODD, ADHD-inattention, ADHD-hyperactivity/impulsivity, anxiety, depression, social impairment, peer-rejection, and academic impairment on the children. Few differences on the symptom and impairment dimensions occurred between ODD only and ODD + CU clinical groups. There was also very low overlap between children with scores in the clinical range (1.50 standard deviations) on ODD and CU. The findings suggest that while ODD and CU represent distinct constructs, the LPE (CU) construct may not be a useful specifier for ODD, especially in contrast to the usefulness of LPE (CU) as a specifier for CD. Additional research with various ages and clinical groups are needed to determine if these results replicate and thus build a case that LPE may not be a useful specifier for ODD.

description: With the introduction of the English in Year 1 to 10 Queensland Syllabus in 1991, (hereafter known as the Syllabus), there came a lot of change in the teaching of English in Queensland Schools. By looking at the Syllabus for today's schools, many differences can be seen if compared to the syllabus written in the 1960s and 1970s. Curriculum guidelines of the past have stressed the wisdom of promoting growth through four language modes or skills - listening, speaking, reading and writing (Christie, 1990). Unfortunately, they did not go further to address the wider issues of the purposes in using these modes, or how they relate to each other and to a wider audience and context. The Syllabus today has a strong emphasis on making these links - all language must be viewed as purposeful and in relation to a context. Such an emphasis can be seen to derive from a theory of systemic functional linguistics. These approaches are based on the belief that language develops to meet the needs of people in given contexts (Old Dept of Ed, 1994). A more detailed discussion of such approaches, and the interpretation of these approaches within the Syllabus, is included in the following chapter (Chapter Two - Literature Review). In my role as Regional Curriculum Consultant, Central Highlands (Catholic Education), I was involved in the process of schools preparing school -based English programmes, with the new syllabus as the guide. This document challenged schools to look at planning in a new way known as the five part framework. The parts included Assumptions about English, Assumptions about English learning and learners, Scope and Sequence, Learning Activities and Evaluation. This document also challenged teachers to apply a functional approach to the teaching of English.

description: We present a thorough analysis of a Zeeman slower for sodium atoms made of permanent magnets in a Halbach configuration. Due to the orientation of the magnetic field, the polarisation of the slowing laser beam cannot be purely circular leading to optical leakages into dark states. To circumvent this effect, we propose an atomic state preparation stage able to significantly increase the performances of the Zeeman slower. After a careful theoretical analysis of the problem, we experimentally implement an optical pumping stage leading to an increase of the magneto-optical trap loading rate by 3.5. Such method is easy to set up and could be extended to other Zeeman slower architectures.
