The effects of vitamin E deficiency and/or ionizing radiation on uterine ceroid pigment development and several other parameters in the rat
Creators: name: Marchant, Ruth Yu Yoke
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of Vitamin E deficiency and/or ionizing radiation on uterine ceroidogenesis, incisor depigmentation, serum Vitamin E, haemoglobin concentration, haematocrit, 2,3-DPG and adipose tissue fatty acid composition in rats. An attempt was also made to define the nature of ceroid and to examine its relationship to lipofuscin. Rats fed a Vitamin E deficient diet deposited increasing amounts of ceroid in the uterine musculature between 90 to 261 days after the imposition of the experimental diets. This pigment was found to be essentially similar to lipofuscin. Ionizing radiation did not have any apparent effect on the rate and degree of ceroidogenesis in Vitamin E deficient rats, althought it did cause a significant decrease in the serum Vitamin E levels of both Vitamin E deficient and supplemented animals. The serum Vitamin E of the deficient animals were significantly lower than those of the supplemented animals, irrespective of their radiation status. Vitamin E deficiency also caused a depigmentation of the maxillary incisors of the animals and had no effect on the haemoglobin concentration, haematocrit and 2,3-DPG levels of these rats. Finally, Vitamin E deficiency and ionizing radiation resulted in a decrease in the polyunsaturated fatty acid content of adipose tissues.

description: We report measurements of the thermoelectric power (TEP) for a series of Pb(1-x)Tl(x)Te crystals with x = 0.0 to 1.3%. Although the TEP is very large for x = 0.0, using a single band analysis based on older work for dilute magnetic alloys we do find evidence for a Kondo contribution of 11 - 18 uV/K. This analysis suggests that Tk is ~ 50 - 70 K, a factor 10 higher than previously thought.

description: Answering complex questions about images is an ambitious goal for machine intelligence, which requires a joint understanding of images, text, and commonsense knowledge, as well as a strong reasoning ability. Recently, multimodal Transformers have made great progress in the task of Visual Commonsense Reasoning (VCR), by jointly understanding visual objects and text tokens through layers of cross-modality attention. However, these approaches do not utilize the rich structure of the scene and the interactions between objects which are essential in answering complex commonsense questions. We propose a Scene Graph Enhanced Image-Text Learning (SGEITL) framework to incorporate visual scene graphs in commonsense reasoning. To exploit the scene graph structure, at the model structure level, we propose a multihop graph transformer for regularizing attention interaction among hops. As for pre-training, a scene-graph-aware pre-training method is proposed to leverage structure knowledge extracted in the visual scene graph. Moreover, we introduce a method to train and generate domain-relevant visual scene graphs using textual annotations in a weakly-supervised manner. Extensive experiments on VCR and other tasks show a significant performance boost compared with the state-of-the-art methods and prove the efficacy of each proposed component.

description: We report a prolonged coherence time of the collective spin wave of a thermal 87Rb atomic ensemble in a paraffin coated cell. The spin wave is prepared through a stimulated Raman Process. The long coherence time time is achieved by prolonging the lifetime of the spins with paraffin coating and minimize dephasing with optimal experimental configuration. The observation of the long time delayed-stimulated Stokes signal in the writing process suggests the prolonged lifetime of the prepared spins; a direct measurement of the decay of anti-Stokes signal in the reading process shows the coherence time is up to 300 us after minimizing dephasing. This is one hundred times longer than the reported coherence time in the similar experiments in thermal atomic ensembles based on the Duan-Lukin-Cirac-Zoller (DLCZ) and its improved protocols. This prolonged coherence time sets the upper limit of the memory time in quantum repeaters based on such protocols, which is crucial for the realization of long-distance quantum communication. The previous reported fluorescence background in the writing process due to collision in a sample cell with buffer gas is also reduced in a cell without buffer gas.

Città e utopia

Publisher: name: Annali del Dipartimento di Filosofia
Year: 2012
Subjects: utopia; urban planning; ethics; political philosophy

description: The spirit of modern utopia was to state the primacy of planning on the reparation, conservation, and reformation of reality and the view that we should destroy what already exists and start again from the beginning in order to build something rational and good. In this paper Maria Moneti sketches out some aspect of the history of utopian thought from the modern rationalism to its decline in the contemporary age. The ‘bankruptcy’ of utopia as philosophical and literary genre has swept away also the need to imagine the ‘ideal city’. At the end of this path, a first balance seems to suggest a post-modern utopia which nourishes more modest ambitions than its modern version and aims at keeping and respecting the world where we live.

Dilepton radiation by vector mesons and off-shell partons in the hot and dense medium

description: According to the dynamical quasiparticle model (DQPM) - matched to reproduce lattice QCD results in thermodynamic limit, - the constituents of the strongly interacting quark-gluon plasma (sQGP) are massive and off-shell quasi-particles (quarks and gluons) with broad spectral functions. In order to address the electromagnetic radiation of the sQGP, we derive off-shell cross sections of q+qbar->gamma*, q+qbar->gamma*+glue and q+glue->gamma*+q(qbar+glue->gamma*qbar) reactions taking into account the effective propagators for quarks and gluons from the DQPM. Dilepton production in In+In collisions at 158 AGeV is studied by implementing these processes into the parton-hadron-string dynamics (PHSD) transport approach. The microscopic PHSD transport approach describes the full evolution of the heavy-ion collision: from the dynamics of quasi-particles in the sQGP phase (when the local energy density is above ~1 GeV/fm^3) through hadronization and to the following hadron interactions and off-shell propagation after the hadronization. A comparison to the data of the NA60 Collaboration shows that the low mass dilepton spectra are well described by including a collisional broadening of vector mesons, while the spectra in the intermediate mass range are dominated by off-shell quark-antiquark annihilation, quark Bremsstrahlung and gluon-Compton scattering in the nonperturbative QGP. In particular, the observed softening of the mT spectra at intermediate masses (1 GeV < M < 3 GeV) is approximately reproduced.

Vortex Penetration into a Type II Superconductor due to a Mesoscopic External Current
Creators: name: Sela, Eran

Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)

description: Applying the London theory we study curved vortices produced by an external current near and parallel to the surface of a type II superconductor. By minimizing the energy functional we find the contour describing the hard core of the flux line, and predict the threshold current for entrance of the first vortex. We assume that the vortex entrance is allowed due to surface defects, despite the Bean-Livingston barrier. Compared to the usual situation with a homogeneous magnetic field, the main effect of the present geometry is that larger magnetic fields can be applied locally before vortices enter the superconducting sample. It is argued that this effect can be further enhanced in anisotropic superconductors.

Dichotic perception of automatic speech in normal subjects
Creators: name: Ben-Dat, Evelyn Judith
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: In the present study, the dichotic perception of "automatic" speech in normal subjects was investigated. Four dichotic tapes were presented, under both single-pair and double-paired conditions. The first tape consisted of "automatic" word pairs, and the second contained "propositional" word pairs. The third and fourth tapes, which were identical but presented on opposite channels, consisted of "automatic-propositional" word pairs. Subjects responded orally to the stimuli. Differences in order of report and distribution of errors were evaluated by means of Wilcoxon's Matched-Pairs Signed-Ranks Test. A significant right ear advantage was found for both automatic and propositional stimuli, indicating lateralization of processing to the dominant hemisphere. Responses to the third and fourth tape varied significantly, suggesting that automatic and propositional words constitute different modes of language, and therefore undergo different sub-cortical processing. The results of the present investigation are examined in relation to the existing model of automatic speech representation. Certain contradictions are noted. The limitations of the experiment, as well as suggestions for further research, are discussed.

description: We present a direct measurement of trilinear gauge boson couplings at gammaWW and ZWW vertices in WW and WZ events produced in pp-bar collisions at sqrt{s}=1.96 TeV. We consider events with one electron or muon, missing transverse energy, and at least two jets. The data were collected using the D0 detector and correspond to 1.1/fb of integrated luminosity. Considering two different relations between the couplings at the gammaWW and ZWW vertices, we measure these couplings at 68% C.L. to be kappa_{gamma}=1.07^{+0.26}_{-0.29}, lambda =0.00^{+0.06}_{-0.06} and g_{1}^{Z}=1.04^{+0.09}_{-0.09} in a scenario respecting SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y gauge symmetry and kappa =1.04^{+0.11}_{-0.11} and lambda=0.00^{+0.06}_{-0.06} in an "equal couplings" scenario.

description: Building upon three late-type galaxies in the Virgo cluster with both a predicted black hole mass of less than $\sim$10$^5$ M$_{\odot}$ and a centrally-located X-ray point-source, we reveal 11 more such galaxies, more than tripling the number of active intermediate-mass black hole candidates among this population. Moreover, this amounts to a 36$\pm$8% X-ray detection rate (despite the sometimes high, X-ray-absorbing, HI column densities), compared to just 10$\pm$5% for (the largely HI-free) dwarf early-type galaxies in the Virgo cluster. The expected contribution of X-ray binaries from the galaxies' inner field stars is negligible. Moreover, given that both the spiral and dwarf galaxies contain nuclear star clusters, the above inequality appears to disfavor X-ray binaries in nuclear star clusters. The higher occupation, or rather detection, fraction among the spiral galaxies may instead reflect an enhanced cool gas/fuel supply and Eddington ratio. Indeed, four of the 11 new X-ray detections are associated with known LINERs or LINER/HII composites. For all (four) of the new detections for which the X-ray flux was strong enough to establish the spectral energy distribution in the Chandra band, it is consistent with power-law spectra. Furthermore, the X-ray emission from the source with the highest flux (NGC 4197: $L_X \approx 10^{40}$ erg s$^{-1}$) suggests a non-stellar-mass black hole if the X-ray spectrum corresponds to the `low/hard state'. Follow-up observations to further probe the black hole masses, and prospects for spatially resolving the gravitational spheres-of-influence around intermediate-mass black holes, are reviewed in some detail.

description: We study unique data from a dynamic natural experiment involving more than 7,000 American women to understand how a woman’s propensity to perform an annual mammography changes over time after a co-worker is diagnosed with breast cancer. We find that in the year this event occurs the probability that a woman performs a mammography drops by about 8 percentage points, off a base level of about 70%. This impact effect is persistent during at least the following 2 years, is driven by cases of breast cancer diagnosed at non-early stages, and by the behavior of individuals who are less knowledgeable about health issues. This negative effect is confirm ed when we allow for serial correlation in screening behavior and when we estimate the effect of the treatment on the hazard of not screening, at the daily frequency. However, the effect vanishes in placebo experiments.

description: We consider here a manifestly covariant quark model of the nucleon and the Delta, where one quark is off-shell and the other two quarks form an on-shell diquark pair. Using this model, we have shown previously that the nucleon form factors and the dominant form factor for the gamma N -> Delta transition (the magnetic dipole (M1) form factor) can be well described by nucleon and Delta wave functions with S-state components only. In this paper we show that non-vanishing results for the small electric (E2) and Coulomb (C2) quadrupole form factors can be obtained if D-state components are added to the Delta valence quark wave function. We present a covariant definition of these components and compute their contributions to the form factors. We find that these components cannot, by themselves, describe the data. Explicit pion cloud contributions must also be added and these contributions dominate both the E2 and the C2 form factors. By parametrizing the pion cloud contribution for the transition electric and Coulomb form factors in terms of the neutron electric form factor, we estimate that the contributions of the Delta D-state coupled to quark core spin of 3/2 is of the order of 1%, and the contributions of the Delta D-state coupled to quark core spin 1/2 is of the order of 4%.

description: Streptophytes are one of the major groups of the green lineage (Chloroplastida or Viridiplantae). During one billion years of evolution, streptophytes have radiated into an astounding diversity of uni- and multicellular green algae as well as land plants. Most divergent from land plants is a clade formed by Mesostigmatophyceae, Spirotaenia spp., and Chlorokybophyceae. All three lineages are species-poor and the Chlorokybophyceae consist of a single described species, Chlorokybus atmophyticus. In this study, we used phylogenomic analyses to shed light into the diversity within Chlorokybus using a sampling of isolates across its known distribution. We uncovered a consistent deep genetic structure within the Chlorokybus isolates, which prompted us to formally extend the Chlorokybophyceae by describing four new species. Gene expression differences among Chlorokybus species suggest certain constitutive variability that might influence their response to environmental factors. Failure to account for this diversity can hamper comparative genomic studies aiming to understand the evolution of stress response across streptophytes. Our data highlight that future studies on the evolution of plant form and function can tap into an unknown diversity at key deep branches of the streptophytes.
Output Width Signal Control In Asynchronous Digital Systems Using Monostable Circuits

description: In present paper, I propose a method for resolving the timing delays for output signals from an asynchronous sequential system. It will be used an example of an asynchronous sequential system that will set up an output signal when an input signal will be set up. The width of the output signal depends on the input signal width, and in this case it is very short. There are many synthesis methods, like using a RC group system, a monostable system in design of the asynchronous digital system or using an external clock signal, CK. In this paper will be used a monostable circuit.

description: We present an investigation of the velocity fields in early to late M-type star hydrodynamic models, and we simulate their influence on FeH molecular line shapes. The M star model parameters range between log g of 3.0 - 5.0 and Teff of 2500 K and 4000 K. Our aim is to characterize the Teff- and log g -dependence of the velocity fields and express them in terms of micro- and macro-turbulent velocities in the one dimensional sense. We present also a direct comparison between 3D hydrodynamical velocity fields and 1D turbulent velocities. The velocity fields strongly affect the line shapes of FeH, and it is our goal to give a rough estimate for the log g and Teff parameter range in which 3D spectral synthesis is necessary and where 1D synthesis suffices. In order to calculate M-star structure models we employ the 3D radiative-hydrodynamics (RHD) code CO5BOLD. The spectral synthesis on these models is performed with the line synthesis code LINFOR3D. We describe the 3D velocity fields in terms of a Gaussian standard deviation and project them onto the line of sight to include geometrical and limb-darkening effects. The micro- and macro-turbulent velocities are determined with the "Curve of Growth" method and convolution with a Gaussian velocity profile, respectively. To characterize the log g and Teff dependence of FeH lines, the equivalent width, line width, and line depth are regarded. The velocity fields in M-stars strongly depend on log g and Teff. They become stronger with decreasing log g and increasing Teff.

description: In this paper I try to test the philosophical relevance of the rational action theories. To take this attempt seriously, in my view, implies to discuss two critical points – one of logical nature, and one of empirical nature – in the rational action theories. These points are the intransitivity of the relation «being better than» and the preference reversal phenomenon. Finally, I suggest that the discussion of these critical points can induce a renewed interest towards the pluralism as formulated by Isaiah Berlin in the last 20th century.

description: In recent years, the confidence in the cultural koiné of Hermeneutics (shared by many continental philosophers in the last decades of the 20th century) went into a sort of epistemological crisis. However, this offers now much opportunity to reflect seriously about the philological roots of philosophical hermeneutics and about its close relationship with Hegel’s dialectical legacy. That’s why, after half a century, it’s still worth reading the methodological introduction of Wolfgang Wieland’s standard book on Aristotle’s Physics (1961).

We will conduct the discussion availing ourselves of the husserlian formulation of the problem and his attempt to solution, and of approaches to the problem from analytic philosophy and linguistics. In particular, in order to understand what essentially characterize indexicality and make it a puzzling problem, we will examine two of its fundamental features, that is the relationships it maintains with context and perspective. We will try to sound out their compatibility with Husserl’s analysis and to highlight some internal difficulties in the phenomenological approach to the topic.

The effects of new information on Canadian equity prices
Creators: name: Watson, Patrick William
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This paper investigates the efficiency of the Canadian securities market; specifically, the reaction of security prices to a particular piece of new information was analyzed, the new information of concern being the information contained in the quarterly mutual fund trading reports published in The Financial Post. As such, the analysis constitutes a test of the semi-strong form of the efficient markets hypothesis. The prime concern of the analysis was the extent and duration of the price reaction to this new information. Residual analysis, first implemented by Fama, Fisher, Jensen and Roll in a paper entitled "The Adjustment of Stock Prices to New Information" (2), was conducted on the return data to eliminate differing economic conditions during the time horizon of the study. By eliminating the portion of return associated with varying economic conditions, the effects of the new information are impounded in the residual returns. The analysis of the residual returns investigated the averages of these residual returns on the date the specific information became publicly available and also the trend of the residual returns over time. In addition, the residual returns were investigated as a function of the size of mutual funds net trading activity in that security. In only one case did it appear that the Canadian security markets may be inefficient. However, the general conclusion is that the Canadian security markets are efficient with respect to the new information analyzed by this study.

V1647 Orionis: Optical Photometric and Spectroscopic Monitoring Through the 2003-2006 Outburst

Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We present results from an optical imaging and spectroscopic monitoring campaign on the young, low-mass eruptive variable star V1647 Orionis. The star and associated nebulosity (McNeil's Nebula) were observed over the period February 2004 to February 2006 with observations commencing a few months after the original outburst event occurred. Using the Gemini North telescope, we obtained multi-band optical imaging photometry and medium-resolution long-slit spectroscopy of V1647 Ori on an approximately monthly interval. During this period, V1647 Ori remained at, or close to, peak brightness and then faded by 5 magnitudes to close to its pre-outburst brightness. This implies an outburst timescale of around 27 months. Spectral features seen in both emission and absorption varied considerably during the monitoring period. For example, the Halpha line changed significantly in both intensity and profile. We present and discuss the observed photometric and spectroscopic changes and consider how this eruptive event relates to the early formative stages of low-mass stars.

description: We have measured the temperature dependences of the thermal conductivity of Ba$_2$Cu$_{3-x}M_x$O$_4$Cl$_2$ ($M$ = Pd, Ni, Co; $x$ = 0, 0.03) single crystals including two-dimensional (2D) Cu$_3$O$_4$ planes consisting of a strong 2D spin network of CuA$^{2+}$ spins and a weak 2D spin network of CuB$^{2+}$ spins. It has been found that the thermal conductivity due to spins, $κ_{\mathrm{spin}}$, exists in the thermal conductivity parallel to the Cu$_3$O$_4$ plane owing to the strong 2D spin network of CuA$^{2+}$ spins and exhibits a broad peak around room temperature. The maximum value of $κ_{\mathrm{spin}}$ is ~7 W/Km and comparable with that in Nd$_2$CuO$_4$ with almost the same 2D spin network of Cu$^{2+}$ spins. The $κ_{\mathrm{spin}}$ has been found to be suppressed by 1% impurities on account the decrease in the mean free path of magnetic excitations, suggesting that $κ_{\mathrm{spin}}$ is expected to be enhanced in 2D quantum spin systems such as Ba$_2$Cu$_3$O$_4$Cl$_2$ by reducing the amount of impurities in a single crystal. Moreover, it has concluded that the frustration between CuA$^{2+}$ and CuB$^{2+}$ spins little affects the existence of $κ_{\mathrm{spin}}$.

Raisa Orlova: radici ebraiche, educazione russa. Un percorso comune a diverse protagoniste dell'intelligencija sovietica
Creators: name: Peroni, Giulia
Publisher: name: Università degli  Studi di Milano
Year: 2014
Subjects: Raissa Orlova; Unione Sovietica; questione ebraica; Lilianna Lungina; IFLI

description: The essay presents the personal story of Raissa Orlova as an example of a process performed by different writers, primarily women of Jewish origin in the Soviet Union at the beginning of the 20th century. These women no longer have any connection with their ancestors’ religion and try to replace the faith in the Jewish religion with the faith in communism, whose god is Stalin. Raissa Orlova is a perfect example of homo sovieticus: she undertakes the young communist girls’ cursus honorum and she is totally blind to what is happening around her. A fundamental step in her path is the attendance of the IFLI, the "communist school " in Moscow. The veil of illusion falls from her eyes after the Twentieth Party Congress and the comparison with the European reality: Orlova realizes that she has believed in an idol and begins to trace her own personal past, to contrast the unifying vision of communism . At this stage Orlova rediscovers her Jewish origins and, although not converted to her ancestors’ religion, she finally becomes aware of her long ignored past.

Sum-capacity of Interference Channels with a Local View: Impact of Distributed Decisions

description: Due to the large size of wireless networks, it is often impractical for nodes to track changes in the complete network state. As a result, nodes have to make distributed decisions about their transmission and reception parameters based on their local view of the network. In this paper, we characterize the impact of distributed decisions on the global network performance in terms of achievable sum-rates. We first formalize the concept of local view by proposing a protocol abstraction using the concept of local message passing. In the proposed protocol, nodes forward information about the network state to other neighboring nodes, thereby allowing network state information to trickle to all the nodes. The protocol proceeds in rounds, where all transmitters send a message followed by a message by all receivers. The number of rounds then provides a natural metric to quantify the extent of local information at each node. We next study three network connectivities, Z-channel, a three-user double Z-channel and a reduced-parametrization $K$-user stacked Z-channel. In each case, we characterize achievable sum-rate with partial message passing leading to three main results. First, in many cases, nodes can make distributed decisions with only local information about the network and can still achieve the same sum-capacity as can be attained with global information irrespective of the actual channel gains. Second, for the case of three-user double Z-channel, we show that universal optimality is not achievable if the per node information is below a threshold. Third, using reduced parametrization $K$-user channel, we show that very few protocol rounds are needed for the case of very weak or very strong interference.
