description: The opinions and perceptions of the players are important skills for their development in sports. Feeling effective in all the actions of training sessions or competitions is fundamental for the learning process to be adequate and for the game to be a constant challenge to the player. The main purpose of this study was to analyse the self-efficacy perceived by under-13 basketball players in two different competitions. The opinions of 38 under-13 male players were collected at the end of each match about their team performance perception. The players played different competitions over a weekend. On the first day, the tournament was played according to the Spanish Basketball Federation (FEB) rules for under-14 players. The second day was a tournament with modified rules. In this tournament, the height of the basket was lowered to 2.90 m; the 3-point line used in Spanish minibasket competitions was used, a rectangle 4 m from the basket, all the shots taken behind this line were valued 3 points; and all the shots made from the 6.75 meters line were valued 4 points. The questions asked were: (Q1) How do you perceive that your teammates can score free throw shots?; (Q2) How do you perceive that your teammates could make a good pass?; (Q3) How do you perceive that your team is effective in defence rebound? A scale from 0 to 10 was used, with 0 being nothing and 10 more (Bandura, 2005). The results showed that the mean values were lower in the FEB Tournament, with significant differences from those in the MR Tournament. In Q1, the players answered 7.57 on FEB and 8.03 on MR (p=.021); in Q2, the players answered 8.22 on FEB and 8.33 on MR (p=.008); and in Q3, the players answered 8.16 on FEB and 8.23 on MR (p=.018). Players' perception of success in these three variables is always higher in the MR Tournament. The fact that the basket is at a lower height allows players to be closer to the rebound. Also, the possibility of scoring from free throw increases. With the addition of the new three-point line, players without the ball can explore positions closer to the basket, and greater offensive mobility is appreciated. Indeed, it will offer more passing options to the player with the ball. It can be concluded that lower basket height and closest 3-point lines provoke a higher self-efficacy team perception on different technical-tactical actions.

description: We consider Fell bundles over discrete groups, and the C*-algebra which is universal for representations of the bundle. We define deformations of Fell bundles, which are new Fell bundles with the same underlying Banach bundle but with the multiplication deformed by a two-cocycle on the group. Every graph algebra can be viewed as the C*-algebra of a Fell bundle, and there are are many cocycles of interest with which to deform them. We thus obtain many of the twisted graph algebras of Kumjian, Pask and Sims. We demonstate the utility of our approach to these twisted graph algebras by proving that the deformations associated to different cocycles can be assembled as the fibres of a C*-bundle.

description: This paper develops a new efficient scheme for approximations of expectations of the solutions to stochastic differential equations (SDEs). In particular, we present a method for connecting approximate operators based on an asymptotic expansion with multidimensional Malliavin weights to compute a target expectation value precisely. The mathematical validity is given based on Watanabe and Kusuoka theories in Malliavin calculus. Moreover, numerical experiments for option pricing under local and stochastic volatility models confirm the effectiveness of our scheme. Especially, our weak approximation substantially improves the accuracy at deep Out-of-The-Moneys (OTMs).

The Rest-Frame Golenetskii Correlation via a Hierarchical Bayesian Analysis

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are characterised by a strong correlation between the instantaneous luminosity and the spectral peak energy within a burst. This correlation, which is known as the hardness-intensity correlation or the Golenetskii correlation, not only holds important clues to the physics of GRBs but is thought to have the potential to determine redshifts of bursts. In this paper, I use a hierarchical Bayesian model to study the universality of the rest-frame Golenetskii correlation and in particular I assess its use as a redshift estimator for GRBs. I find that, using a power-law prescription of the correlation, the power-law indices cluster near a common value, but have a broader variance than previously reported ($\sim 1-2$). Furthermore, I find evidence that there is spread in intrinsic rest-frame correlation normalizations for the GRBs in our sample ($\sim 10^{51}-10^{53}$ erg s$^{-1}$). This points towards variable physical settings of the emission (magnetic field strength, number of emitting electrons, photospheric radius, viewing angle, etc.). Subsequently, these results eliminate the Golenetskii correlation as a useful tool for redshift determination and hence a cosmological probe. Nevertheless, the Bayesian method introduced in this paper allows for a better determination of the rest frame properties of the correlation, which in turn allows for more stringent limitations for physical models of the emission to be set.

description: The objective of this study was to analyse and compare the goals scored and goals conceded in the top six European football leagues (Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, England, and Germany) from 2001 to 2020. The champions in these leagues typically achieved a mean combination score (an indicator that factors in both attack and defence rankings) ranging from 1 to 1.40. Notably, the French and Italian leagues stood out as the only ones where the variation coefficients of this combination score exceeded 50%, with percentages of 71% and 59%, respectively, in contrast to the other football leagues. Further examination revealed significant distinctions between the Portuguese and French leagues compared to Italy concerning the best attack positions of the champions (Z=3.196; p=0.01; η2=0.123). Similarly, when assessing defensive rankings, Portugal and Italy displayed notable differences from France (Z=3.763; p=0.003; η2=1.42).

Additionally, the only two countries exhibiting substantial disparities in their positions for goals scored and conceded were France (with a stronger focus on attack than defence; t=-3; p<0.01; d=2.236) and Italy (prioritising defence over attack; t=2.881 p<0.01; d=1.164). Consequently, in the context of the French football league, superior attacking performance appeared to be a hallmark of champions. In contrast, in the Italian football league, champions traditionally excelled in defensive prowess, even if their performance in scoring goals was not on the same level.

description: This paper analyses a scenario where a Device-To-Device (D2D) pair coexists with an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) based incumbent network. D2D transmitter communicates in parts of spectrum left free by cellular users, while respecting a given spectral mask. The D2D pair is misaligned in time and frequency with the cellular users. Furthermore, the D2D pair utilizes alternative waveforms to OFDM proposed for 5G. In this study, we show that it is not worth synchronising the D2D pair in time with respect to the cellular users. Indeed, the interference injected into the incumbent network has small variations with respect to time misalignment. We provide interference tables that encompass both time and frequency misalignment. We use them to analyse the maximum rate achievable by the D2D pair when it uses different waveforms. Then, we present numerical results showing what waveform should be utilized by the D2D pair according to the time-frequency resources that are not used by the incumbent network. Our results show that the delay induced by linearly convolved waveforms make them hardly applicable to short time windows, but that they dominate OFDM for long transmissions, mainly in the case where cellular users are very sensitive to interference.

description: The elders experience a progressive loss of cognitive and physiological functions, including cognitive impairment and functional motor skills. It is estimated that by 2050, the number of people with dementia will reach 131.5 million worldwide (World Health Organization, 2015). In addition to cognitive and behavioural deficits, people with dementia have increased deficits in balance, gait and motor coordination, leading to an increased risk of falls. Exercise improves cognitive and physical functions and is an important contributor to functional independence. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of a tailored dual-task exercise program on physical fitness in people over 65 years of age in the Fundão community. The longitudinal study included elderly people aged ≥ 65 years. Twenty-five community residents, 13 female (F; age: 71.37±11.77 years; height: 160.46±0.08cm; body mass: 67.29±13.67 kg) and 12 male (M; age: 71.25±9.26 years; height: 169.54±3.67 cm; body mass: 79.98±11.94 kg) participated in this cross-sectional study. All participants received a six-month individualised exercise program. Physical fitness was assessed at baseline and the end of the intervention using the Rikli and Jones Test (Rikli & Jones, 1999) for cognitive functions using the MOca test battery (Hobson, 2015). Pre-post analysis was conducted using a t-test for paired samples. As this is a community-based program, there is no control group, as participants in the program are evaluated. A general improvement was found in all tests, from baseline to post-test. Significant differences were found for all physical fitness tests, walking 6 minutes (P=0.006), push-ups (P=0.006), sitting and walking 2.44 m (p=0.006), sitting and standing from a chair (P=0.003), sitting and reaching (P=0.003) and reaching behind the back (P=0.036). There were significant improvements in cognitive functions: Visuospatial/executive (P=0.002), Naming (0.000), Attention: sequence of numbers (P= 0.001), Attention: Subtraction (P=0.001), Language: repetition (P=0.042), Abstraction: similarities (P=0.003) Memory: delayed recall (P=0.004), Orientation (P=0.000), Total Score MOCA (P=0.000). This trial of a personalised dual-task exercise intervention presents preliminary evidence that the MEMO_MOVE community program can improve physical fitness in the elderly, which may decrease the prevalence of falls, a prevalent accident in this population.

description: Although Fourier series approximation is ubiquitous in computational physics owing to the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm, efficient techniques for the fast evaluation of a three-dimensional truncated Fourier series at a set of \emph{arbitrary} points are quite rare, especially in MATLAB language. Here we employ the Nonequispaced Fast Fourier Transform (NFFT, by J. Keiner, S. Kunis, and D. Potts), a C library designed for this purpose, and provide a Matlab and GNU Octave interface that makes NFFT easily available to the Numerical Analysis community. We test the effectiveness of our package in the framework of quantum vortex reconnections, where pseudospectral Fourier methods are commonly used and local high resolution is required in the post-processing stage. We show that the efficient evaluation of a truncated Fourier series at arbitrary points provides excellent results at a computational cost much smaller than carrying out a numerical simulation of the problem on a sufficiently fine regular grid that can reproduce comparable details of the reconnecting vortices.

description: The muonium atom is the purely leptonic bound state of a positive muon and an electron. It has a lifetime of 2.2 $μ$s. The absence of any known internal structure provides for precision experiments to test fundamental physics theories and to determine accurate values of fundamental constants. In particular groun dstate hyperfine structure transitions can be measured by microwave spectroscopy to deliver the muon magnetic moment. The frequency of the 1s-2s transition in the hydrogen-like atom can be determined with laser spectroscopy to obtain the muon mass. With such measurements fundamental physical interactions, in particular Quantum Electrodynamics, can also be tested at highest precision. The results are important input parameters for experiments on the muon magnetic anomaly. The simplicity of the atom enables further precise experiments, such as a search for muonium-antimuonium conversion for testing charged lepton number conservation and searches for possible antigravity of muons and dark matter.

description: We consider an integrable, nonlocal and nonlinear, Schrödinger equation (NNSE) as a model for building space-time patchings in inhomogeneous loop quantum cosmology (LQC). We briefly review exact solutions of the NNSE, specially those obtained through "geometric equivalence" methods. Furthemore, we argue that the integrability of the NNSE could be linked to consistency conditions derived from LQC, under the assumption that the patchwork dynamics behaves as an integrable many-body system.

description: Layered oxypnictide Sm$_{1-x}$Th$_x$OFeAs (Sm-1111) is an ideal candidate to be probed by intrinsic multiple Andreev reflections effect (IMARE) spectroscopy. Using the classical "break-junction" technique, we formed ballistic Andreev arrays of identical S--n--S-contacts, where $S$ is superconductor, and $n$ is a layer of normal metal. For $T < T_C$, the I(V) curve shows an excess-current and a subharmonic gap structure (SGS): a set of sharp dI(V)/dV-dips at positions which depend on the superconducting gap value, the number of junctions in the array, and the natural subharmonic order, thus manifesting the effect of intrinsic multiple Andreev reflections. Here we present the I(V) and dI(V)/dV with up to 4 SGS dips for Andreev arrays formed in optimally doped Sm-1111 with critical temperatures $T_C \approx 49$\,K, as well as in underdoped samples with $T_C \approx 37$\,K. We show that a number of Andreev subharmonics facilitates the determination of the superconducting gap with a better accuracy.

description: We use numerical simulations to investigate the interaction of an $f$-mode wave packet with small and large models of a sunspot in a stratified atmosphere. While a loose cluster model has been largely studied before, we focus in this study on the scattering from an ensemble of tightly compact tubes. We showed that the small compact cluster produces a slight distorted scattered wave field in the transverse direction, which can be attributed to the simultaneous oscillations of the pairs of tubes within the cluster aligned in a perpendicular direction to the incoming wave. However, no signature of a multiple-scattering regime has been observed from this model, while it has been clearly observable for the large compact cluster model. Furthermore, we pointed out the importance of the geometrical shape of the monolithic model on the interaction of $f$-mode waves with a sunspot in a high frequency range ($ν=$ 5 mHz). These results are a contribution to the observational effort to distinguish seismically between different configurations of magnetic flux tubes within sunspots and plage.

description: In the past decade several theoretical Maxwell's demon models have been proposed exhibiting effects such as refrigerating, doing work at the cost of information, and some experiments have been done to realise these effects. Here we propose a model with a two level demon, information represented by a sequence of bits, and two heat reservoirs. Which reservoir the demon interact with depends on the bit. If information is pure, one reservoir will be refrigerated, on the other hand, information can be erased if temperature difference is large. Genuine examples of such a system are discussed.

description: We present first results from a new technique for the prediction of Fe K$α$ profiles directly from general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations. Data from a GRMHD simulation are processed by a Monte Carlo global radiation transport code, which determines the X-ray flux irradiating the disk surface and the coronal electron temperature self-consistently. With that irradiating flux and the disk's density structure drawn from the simulation, we determine the reprocessed Fe K$α$ emission from photoionization equilibrium and solution of the radiation transfer equation. We produce maps of the surface brightness of Fe K$α$ emission over the disk surface, which---for our example of a $10 M_\odot$, Schwarzschild black hole accreting at $1\%$ the Eddington value---rises steeply one gravitational radius outside the radius of the innermost stable circular orbit and then falls $\propto r^{-2}$ at larger radii. We explain these features of the Fe K$α$ radial surface brightness profile as consequences of the disk's ionization structure and an extended coronal geometry, respectively. We also present the corresponding Fe K$α$ line profiles as would be seen by distant observers at several inclinations. Both the shapes of the line profiles and the equivalent widths of our predicted K$α$ lines are qualitatively similar to those typically observed from accreting black holes. Most importantly, this work represents a direct link between theory and observation: in a fully self-consistent way, we produce observable results---iron fluorescence line profiles---from the theory of black hole accretion with almost no phenomenological assumptions.

description: The Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt-type noncontextuality inequality and the Svetlichny inequality are derived from the Alicki-Van Ryn quantumness witness. Thus a connection between quantumness and quantum contextuality, and that between quantumness and genuine multipartite nonlocality, are established.

description: Self-organized pattern formation by the process of reverse epitaxial growth has been investigated on GaAs (001) surfaces during 1 keV Ar+ bombardment at target temperature of 450 degC for a wide range of incident angles. Highly ordered ripple formation driven by diffusion instability is evidenced at near normal incidence angles. Concurrent sample rotation shows that the ripple morphology and its orientation do not depend on the incident beam direction; rather they are determined by the symmetry of the crystal face.

description: Background: High rate of Lateral Ankle Sprain (LAS) occurs in high rate in athletes near the end of the matches when the fatigue is well established. Understanding the effects of fatigue on Repositioning Error (RE) in athletic persons may partially explain the increased risk of LASs in those populations. Aim of Study: To investigate the effect of peroneal muscles fatigue on RE in volley ball female players. Study Design: One group pretest/posttest cross section design. Material and Methods: 25 female volleyball players with mean age (20 ±2 years) and mean BMI (22.8± 1 .6kg/m2) were recruited from Faculty of Physical Therapy, Cairo University. Proprioception (in the form of RE) was tested before and after induction of fatigue. Fatigue protocol and proprioception assessment were performed using Biodex System III Pro Isokinetic dynamometer. Mean error around 20 degree of inversion was calculated. Results: There was no statistical significant difference in RE before and after peroneal muscles fatigue ( p=0.904). Conclusion: RE of ankle joint was not affected by induction of peroneal muscles fatigue.

Radio polarization maps of shell-type SNRs I. Effects of a random magnetic field component, and thin-shell models

description: The maps of intensity and polarization of the radio synchrotron emission from shell-type supernova remnants (SNRs) contain a considerable amount of information, although of not easy interpretation. With the aim of deriving constraints on the 3-D spatial distribution of the emissivity, as well as on the structure of both ordered and random magnetic fields (MFs), we present here a scheme to model maps of the emission and polarization in SNRs. We first generalize the classical treatment of the synchrotron emission to the case in which the MF is composed by an ordered MF plus an isotropic random component, with arbitrary relative strengths. In the case of a power-law particle energy distribution, we derive analytic formulae that formally resemble those for the classical case. We also treat the case of a shock compression of a fully random upstream field and we predict that the polarization fraction in this case should be higher than typically measured in SNRs. We implement the above treatment into a code, which simulates the observed polarized emission of an emitting shell, taking into account also the effect of the internal Faraday rotation. Finally, we show simulated maps for different orientations with respect to the observer, levels of the turbulent MF component, Faraday rotation levels, distributions of the emissivity (either barrel-shaped or limited to polar caps), and geometries for the ordered MF component (either tangential to the shell, or radial). Their analysis allows us to outline properties useful for the interpretation of radio intensity and polarization maps.

description: A Time-Weighted Quadratic Average (TWQA) Interpolated Enhanced Swap Curve building algorithm is proposed. All major properties one expects from the curve (arbitrage-free, locality of sensitivity, and smooth forward curve), and achieved by the current model, are still guaranteed. The model leads to more reasonable (smaller) sensitivities in situations when the underlying terms of two consecutive short end input instruments (deposits and futures contracts) overlap almost entirely.

description: Pandemi COVID-19 telah berlangsung selama dua setengah tahun dan salah satu upaya penanganan yang dilakukan oleh pemerintah adalah dengan mendorong vaksinasi COVID-19. Langkah ini diharapkan agar memperkuat imunitas masyarakat terhadap COVID-19 melalui tercapainya herd immunity, dan diperkuat dengan diwajibkannya vaksinasi booster dengan cara pembatasan mobilitas dan akses terhadap fasilitas umum kepada anggota masyarakat yang belum menerima vaksinasi booster COVID-19. Namun demikian, vaksin COVID-19 sendiri tidak dapat menghentikan penularan penyakit, dan demikian herd immunity tidak akan tercapai. Tinjauan pustaka pendek ini bertujuan untuk menjabarkan mengapa vaksin dan vaksin booster COVID-19 tidak dapat memenuhi syarat untuk menjadi intervensi kesehatan masyarakat yang baik, termasuk adanya beberapa aspek risiko pada vaksin COVID-19 yang belum dievaluasi secara komprehensif dalam prosedur regulasi dan otorisasi vaksin. Aspek tersebut termasuk risiko vaksin untuk menyebabkan autoimunitas, risiko vaksin untuk bersifat patogenik, risiko vaksin untuk berintegrasi ke dalam DNA sel inang, dan risiko vaksin untuk menyebabkan antibody enhancement of disease (ADE). Mengingat keterbatasan vaksin COVID-19 untuk menghambat penularan dan adanya risiko yang cukup signifikan, maka wajib vaksinasi dan vaksinasi booster COVID-19 agar sebaiknya dihentikan dan hak dan kedaulatan setiap orang untuk memutuskan agar divaksinasi atau tidak divaksinasi agar dihormati sebagaimana mestinya.

description: Plasmonic phenomena are exhibited in light-matter interaction involving materials whose real parts of permittivity functions attain negative values at operating wavelengths. However, such materials usually suffer from dissipative losses, thus limiting the performance of plasmon-based optical devices. Here, we utilize an alternative methodology that mimics a variety of plasmonic phenomena by exploiting the well-known structural dispersion of electromagnetic modes in bounded guided-wave structures filled with only materials with positive permittivity. A key issue in design of such structures is prevention of mode coupling, which can be achieved by implementing thin metallic wires at proper interfaces. This method, which is more suitable for lower frequencies, allows designers to employ conventional dielectrics and highly conductive metals for which the loss is low at these frequencies, while achieving plasmonic features. We demonstrate, numerically and analytically, that this platform can provide surface plasmon polaritons, local plasmonic resonance, plasmonic cloaking and epsilon-near-zero (ENZ)-based tunneling using conventional positive-dielectric materials.

description: Purpose: Understanding others’ mental states including thoughts (cognitive theory of mind [ToM]) and feelings (affective ToM) is an important component of communication, particularly for individuals with communication challenges. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) are critical members of the team that supports these individuals; however, little is currently known about how SLPs approach therapy involving ToM components. This exploratory study seeks to establish foundational knowledge about the current practices SLPs use when incorporating ToM.Method: SLP participants completed an online survey (N = 86) that asked about their incorporation of ToM topics and skills into therapy with a focus on literacy activities.Results: All SLPs reported working on ToM topics to some extent, most frequently on emotional awareness in the self and others and to a lesser extent on understanding others’ thoughts. They reported targeting ToM components with different clinical populations: mostly individuals with autism spectrum disorder and social communication disorder, but also those with expressive/receptive language disorders and preschool-age students. The majority of SLPs reported using books to work on ToM skills. We provide a summary of the various features of books that SLPs used in the selection process and with their reported relative importance.Conclusions: Many SLPs reported working on affective ToM and to a lesser extent cognitive ToM with children who have a variety of communication needs. Children’s books were a common way in which many SLPs targeted a variety of communication goals in addition to perspective-taking or ToM topics. Understanding the current implementation of ToM topics in therapy can help guide neurodiversity-affirming intervention and literacy practices for currently practicing SLPs.Supplemental Material S1.

Diagnosis (Silvestri 1932a; Paclt 1966; Bareth 1980; Sendra 1988)
Body length 1.5–3.0 mm; epicuticle with microdenticles; short, smooth clothing setae; antennae with 18–23 antennomeres; sensillum of third antennomere in dorsal position; long notal macrosetae well barbed; thin pine cone pronotal marginal setae; 1+1 lp macrosetae on VII urotergite, 3+3 lp on VIII urotergite and 5+5 lp IX abdominal segment; cerci shorter than body with 9 articles covered in long barbed macrosetae and a few clothing setae, latero-interior swollen macrosetae; small spermatozoid fascicles 33–36 μm and 10 μm wide, spiral filament with 1.5–2 spirals, 93–150 μm long and 1 μm diameter.
We follow the suggestion of Paclt (1966) to propose as synonyms of C. (M.) devoniensis: Campodea (Monocampa) quilisi Silvestri, 1932 from the west Mediterranean region, Campodea (Monocampa) barnardi Silvestri, 1932 from South Africa, Campodea (Monocampa) morgani Silvestri, 1911 from North America and Campodea (Monocampa) tonnoiri Womersley, 1937 from Australia. Nevertheless, a more accurate revision should be carried out in the future to untangle this taxonomic uncertainty.
Taxonomic notes
Some specimens studied from localities in Sardinia Island and Genova (Supplementary file 2) have 1+1 la macrosetae on VII urotergite. In Granarolo (Genova, Italy) specimens with and without la macrosetae on VII urotergite have been observed. The studied material (Supplementary file 2) has also allowed to take photographs of some structures with SEM (Figs 14–16, 25–26).
Habitat and distribution
Soil-dwelling species distributed in the Atlantic archipelagos of the Canaries (Sendra 1989a) and Azores (Condé & Barbier 1965), although the main distribution area are the West Mediterranean regions: Iberian Peninsula (Condé & Mathieu 1957; Sendra et al. 1986; Sendra & Moreno 2006), Morocco (Condé 1953b), Sardinia (Bareth 1980), Corsica (Condé 1947e) and the Italian Peninsula (Ramellini 1990). It has also been found at several localities in England (Bagnall 1918c), Austria (Christian 1992), Slovakia (Paclt 1966) and Croatia (Blesić 1996), perhaps due to its wide colonization capability, and it is a potential invasing species of other distant localities in Australia, South Africa and North America (Paclt 1966).
