description: On the basis of the Bogoliubov-de Gennes theory for the two-dimensional extended Hubbard model, the vortex structure in d-wave superconductors is investigated including the contribution of the induced incommensurate antiferromagnetism around the vortex core. As the on-site repulsive interaction $U$ increases, the spatial structure of charge and spin changes from the antiferromagnetic state with checkerboard modulation to that with the stripe modulation. By the effect of the induced antiferromagnetic moment, the zero-energy density of states is suppressed, and the vortex core radius increases. We also study the effect of the local density of states (LDOS) change on the site-dependent nuclear relaxation rate $T_1^{-1}({\bf r})$. These results are compared with a variety of experiments performed on high $T_c$ cuprates.

title: Assessment of Domestic Appliance Noise
Creators: name: Brooks, Jeanette Rosamund
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1988

description: The aims of this study were: (i) to identify the factors involved in eliciting a subjective reaction to domestic appliance noise (ii) to identify the noise index (or indices) that correlate highly with a subjective reaction to the noise, and (in) to investigate the contribution of domestic appliance noise to an individual’s daily noise dose. Two series of experimental studies were carried out using several examples of each of five types of domestic appliances. One determined the index values of domestic appliance noise - namely LwA (using ISO 3741), LpA, LpD, Lp, PNL, LAeq,30sec, LAmax and LAZ; the other determined subjective reactions to domestic appliance noise (judgements of noisiness, annoyance, the acceptability of the appliance noise and appraisals of usefulness). The success or failure of the research hypotheses was assessed statistically by analysis of variance, regression analysis, log linear analysis. Hotelling test, bootstrapping, t-test and post-hoc comparisons. Ratings of annoyance, noisiness and the acceptability of the noise of the appliance were found to be interrelated and interdependent, and not influenced by appraisals of usefulness of the appliances. Noisiness ratings were the most consistent of the subjective ratings investigated, and were influenced by the duration of the exposure, and the actual appliance type under investigation. Significant correlations were obtained between noisiness ratings and all the noise indices under investigation. However, statistical analysis demonstrated that Lwa correlated less successfully with noisiness ratings than all other indices. LAmax, LAeq,30sec, and LAX indices were the most successful. It is therefore suggested that the labelling of domestic appliance noise consist of LwA and LAeq as measured in a standardised test environment. The percentage contribution of domestic appliance noise to the total daily noise dose of an individual was found to vary considerably depending on the sex and occupation of the individual. However, in terms of the daily personal noise exposure of an individual (LEP,d) domestic appliance noise is insignificant.

Η εξάπλωση του κορωνοϊού (COVID-19) και η επιβολή των περιοριστικών μέτρων έχουν επηρεάσει σημαντικά τον τομέα της εκπαίδευσης. Ως εκ τούτου, πραγματοποιείται αναφορά ως προς την εξέλιξη της εξ αποστάσεως εκπαίδευσης, κατά την οποία χρησιμοποιούνται τεχνολογικά μέσα, προκειμένου να καταστεί εφικτή η εκπαίδευση των ενηλίκων σε διάφορα πλαίσια, όπως την υποχρεωτική εκπαίδευση, την επαγγελματική κατάρτιση και τη διά βίου μάθηση. Επιπλέον, η εξ αποστάσεως διδασκαλία καλείται να ανταποκριθεί στις ανάγκες και την καθημερινότητα των ενηλίκων, των οποίων τα χαρακτηριστικά διαφέρουν από τους νεότερους μαθητές. Ωστόσο, είναι αναπόφευκτη η ύπαρξη εμποδίων, που μειώνουν σημαντικά το κίνητρο των ενηλίκων μαθητών κατά τη διάρκεια του μαθήματος. Συνεπώς, στο δεύτερο μέρος της έρευνας, αναλύονται εκτενώς οι παράγοντες που μειώνουν το κίνητρό τους σε γενικά χρονικά πλαίσια αλλά και κατά την περίοδο της πανδημίας.
description: The aim of the present research lies in the analysis of the factors that significantly affect the motivation of adult students in distance education. The spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) and the imposition of restrictive measures had a significant impact on the education sector. Therefore, reference is made to the evolution of distance education, in which technology is used to enable adult education in various contexts, such as compulsory education, vocational training and lifelong learning. In addition, distance learning is required to meet the needs and daily lives of adults whose characteristics differ from those of younger students. However, obstacles are inevitable, which significantly reduce the motivation of adult students during the lesson. Therefore, in the second part of the research, the factors that reduce their motivation are analyzed extensively in general time frames but also during the pandemic period.
Self-bound supersolid stripe phase in binary Bose-Einstein condensates

description: Supersolidity - a coexistence of superfluidity and crystalline or amorphous density variations - has been vividly debated ever since its conjecture. While the initial focus was on helium-4, recent experiments uncovered supersolidity in ultra-cold dipolar quantum gases. Here, we propose a new self-bound supersolid phase in a binary mixture of Bose gases with short-range interactions, making use of the non-trivial properties of spin-orbit coupling. We find that a first-order phase transition from a self-bound supersolid stripe phase to a zero-minimum droplet state of the Bose gas occurs as a function of the Rabi coupling strength. These phases are characterized using the momentum distribution, the transverse spin polarization and the superfluid fraction. The critical point of the transition is estimated in an analytical framework. The predicted density-modulated supersolid stripe and zero-minimum droplet phase should be experimentally observable in a binary mixture of $^{39}$K with spin-orbit coupling.

POTENTIAL FARM-SIZE IMPACTS OF GOVERNMENT PRICE AND INCOME SUPPORT POLICIES

description: Declines in the price of grains during the spring and summer of 1977 have rekindled congressional debate over the need for government price and income policies for agriculture (Woods, Penn, and Henderson). One concern relative to these types of programs is that such programs tend to materially alter the farm-size distribution in the nation's agriculture. Indeed, Quance and Tweeted indicate that the support policies in effect from the 1930's through the 1960's had more of an impact on farm size than did policies directly aimed at altering the farm-size distribution (such as the Resettlement Act or the Farmers Home Administration).

description: We present high-frequency high-field electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements on the dodecanuclear manganese complex Mn12-bromoacetate (Mn12-BrAc). The crystal-field parameters are found to be identical to those of the original compound Mn12-acetate (Mn12-Ac). A detailed analysis of the frequency and temperature dependence of anomalous peaks observed in the EPR spectra of Mn12-BrAc enables us to locate the S=9 manifold at about 40 K above the Ms= +/-10 ground state of this nominally S=10 system. This is very close to the Ms = +/-6 state of the S = 10 manifold, thus suggesting pathways for the thermally assisted magnetization dynamics and related properties. Finally, the EPR fine structures recently attributed to disorder associated with the acetic acid of crystallization in Mn12-Ac are absent in the present measurements, thus suggesting that the Mn12-BrAc complex represents a more suitable candidate for measurements of quantum effects in high symmetry S=10 SMMs.

title: The Universalists: radical sectarianism (1760-1850)
Creators: name: Christodoulou, Joan Patricia
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1988

description: This thesis is a study of the Universalist sects that developed in Britain after 1760. Societies were established in the city of London and Edinburgh in the 1760s and 1770s; in Glasgow, Liverpool, Coleraine, Kent and Sussex, Dorset, Wiltshire and East Anglia in the early decades of the nineteenth century. All took as their central tenet the certainty of salvation for all men: all looked to human emancipation here on earth, and progress based on reason. Theirs was a creed that inevitably inclined believers to take the action necessary to bring society into conformity with their rational egalitarian principles. Most of these Universalists were remarkable for their high level of radical political commitment. Several became leaders of the labour movement, and their millenarian vision of a just and equal society formed the basis of moral-force Chartism. The thesis seeks to discover the theological and intellectual origins of the Universalist faith, in the Methodist revival, pietism, the millenarian tradition and Enlightenment rationality. The founding of the sects is related to the social, political and economic context, and to the aspirations of the tradesmen who formed the main part of Universalist congregations. Each society's composition, organisation and stated goals are analysed against its role in society, and the impact of contemporary ideas and events. Particular attention is given to the relationship between Universalist theology and radical politics. The central theme of the thesis is to assess to what extent Universalists were inspired to political activity by their religious faith. Did they simply translate secular socialism into the familiar Biblical terminology, as has been argued. Or was their whole ordering of experience shaped by a conviction that they were the instruments of God's purpose to realise his kingdom here on earth.

The Hanle Effect as a Diagnostic of Magnetic Fields in Stellar Envelopes IV. Application to Polarized P Cygni Wind Lines

description: The Hanle effect has been proposed as a new diagnostic of circumstellar magnetic fields for early-type stars, for which it is sensitive to field strengths in the 1-300 G range. In this paper we compute the polarized P-Cygni line profiles that result from the Hanle effect. For modeling the polarization, we employ a variant of the ``last scattering approximation''. For cases in which the Sobolev optical depths are greater than unity, the emergent line intensity is assumed to be unpolarized; while for smaller optical depths, the Stokes source functions for the Hanle effect with optically thin line scattering are used. For a typical P Cygni line, the polarized emission forms in the outer wind, because the Sobolev optical depth is large at the inner wind. For low surface field strengths, weak P Cygni lines are needed to measure the circumstellar field. For high values of the surface fields, both the Zeeman and Hanle diagnostics can be used, with the Zeeman effect probing the photospheric magnetic fields, and the Hanle effect measuring the magnetic field in the wind flow. Polarized line profiles are calculated for a self-consistent structure of the flow and the magnetic geometry based on the WCFields model, which is applicable to slowly rotating stellar winds with magnetic fields drawn out by the gas flow. For surface fields of a few hundred Gauss, we find that the Hanle effect can produce line polarizations in the range of a few tenths of a percent up to about 2 percent.

description: As the Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) became the standard for routing in the Internet of Things (IoT) networks, many researchers had investigated the security aspects of this protocol. However, no work (to the best of our knowledge) has investigated the use of the security mechanisms included in RPL standard, mainly because there was no implementation for these features in any IoT operating systems yet. A partial implementation of RPL security mechanisms was presented recently for the Contiki operating system (by Perazzo et al.), which provided us with an opportunity to examine RPL security mechanisms. In this paper, we investigate the effects and challenges of using RPL security mechanisms under common routing attacks. First, a comparison of RPL performance, with and without its security mechanisms, under four routing attacks (Blackhole, Selective-Forward, Neighbor, and Wormhole attacks) is conducted using several metrics (e.g., average data packet delivery rate, average data packet delay, average power consumption, etc.). This comparison is performed using two commonly used Radio Duty-Cycle protocols. Secondly, and based on the observations from this comparison, we propose two techniques that could reduce the effects of such attacks, without having added security mechanisms for RPL. An evaluation of these techniques shows improved performance of RPL under the investigated attacks, except for the Wormhole attack.

description: Excerpts from the report Introduction: This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of certain factors such as price and frequency of service on milk consumption in the Nation's schools. It is part of a broad program of research designed to expand the market for agricultural commodities. Comparative data were obtained on milk consumption for schools participating and those not participating in the School Lunch and Special Milk Programs during March 1957. Data were tabulated by population density of the areas served by schools, size of school in terms of enrollment, and grades taught, that is, elementary, secondary, and combination grades. In tabulating the survey data by these characteristics, it was assumed there would be differences in pupils' milk consumption (1) in the less densely populated areas compared with the metropolitan areas; (2) in large and small schools; and (3) according to age, as indicated by elementary grades and secondary grades. It was anticipated that the study would either substantiate or negate the hypothesis that differences would occur among pupils attending schools under such varied conditions. Findings are based on a representative national sample of 4,347 of the approximately 106,000 public elementary and secondary schools. Sample selection, collection, and tabulation of data were performed by the Bureau of the Census for the Department of Agriculture.
Returns on Corn-Soybean Farms by Size of Unit and Implications for Land Values

Year: 1977
Subjects: Crop Production/Industries

description: Use of the Illinois Farm Business Records is made to obtain costs by size of unit and levels of physical production. These costs are compared with different price levels (either market or target) and the residual return is related to land values under selected land purchase circumstances occurring in the market. Results show that the cost of producing corn ranges from $1.20 to $1.40 if no cost is assigned to land. When land costs are added at 5% interest on a "normal" land value, costs per bushel of corn are approximately $2. 00 or somewhat more. Non-land costs of producing corn went up approximately 25% from 1974 to 1976. The effect of costs is different on tenants than landowners, because cash costs for a landlord are a smaller proportion of total costs than for a tenant unless the landowners have substantial land debt. There are many factors other than rate of return which affect land prices giving a much less than perfect correlation between land prices and land returns. Some of these factors are discussed.

description: We investigated the magnetic phase diagram of the first Pr-based heavy fermion superconductor PrOs4Sb12 by means of high-resolution dc magnetization measurements in low temperatures down to 0.06K. The temperature dependence of the magnetization M(T) at 0.1kOe exhibits two distinct anomalies at Tc1=1.83K and Tc2=1.65K, in agreement with the specific heat measurements at zero field. Increasing magnetic field H, both Tc1(H) and Tc2(H) move toward lower temperatures without showing a tendency of intersecting to each other. Above 10kOe, the transition at Tc2(H) appears to merge into a line of the peak effect which is observed near the upper critical field Hc2 in the isothermal M(H) curves, suggesting a common origin for these two phenomena. The presence of the field-induced ordered phase (called phase A here) is confirmed for three principal directions above 40kOe, with the anisotropic A-phase transition temperature TA: TA[100] > TA[111] >TA[110]. The present results are discussed on the basis of crystalline-electrical-field level schemes with a non-magnetic ground state, with emphasis on a Gamma1 singlet as the possible ground state of Pr3+ in PrOs4Sb12.

Subjects: Livestock Production/Industries

description: Milk has always been one of the most "political" commodities produced by American farmers. The dairy industry's size, contribution to the American diet, and unique marketing problems have led to an "exquisitely complicated" system of regulation.l Since the 1930s, federal dairy policy has usually been set within a classic "subgovemment", including producer groups such as the National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF), the House and Senate Agriculture committees, and the USDA marketing authorities. Ripley and Franklin have identified this system as one which illustrates "the long-term entrenchment of subgovernments in the agricultural policy area. 112 This paper traces the evolution of the dairy subgovernment since 1933, with specific emphasis on (1) pattern of interaction among industry grps, regulatory officials, and the· Congress, and (2) the mechanisms through which the more diffuse interests of consumers have been represented in policy decisions.

description: During the past few years, attention has begun to be focused on the plight of the small-farm operator. Even with this increased attention a general concensus has not been reached as to the definition of a small farm. My program assistant likes to define a small farmer as one who stands less than 5'311 in height and weighs less than 120 pounds. Although this provides a very definite criteria for defining a small farmer it gives us very little insight into the economic situation and the problems faced by the small-farm population. Neither the physical size of the operator nor the physical size of the farm operation is very helpful in defining the economic problem faced by small-farm operators. The 1969 Census of Agricultural (1) reports that there are approximately 180,000 farms that contain more than 140 acres yet have gross sales of less than $2,500.

description: This letter proposes a new time domain absorption approach designed to reduce masking components of speech signals under noisy-reverberant conditions. In this method, the non-stationarity of corrupted signal segments is used to detect masking distortions based on a defined threshold. The nonstationarity is objectively measured and is also adopted to determine the absorption procedure. Additionally, no prior knowledge of speech statistics or of the room information is required for this technique. Three intelligibility measures (ESII, ASIIST, SRMRnorm) and a perceptual listening test are used for evaluation. The experiments results show that the proposed scheme leads to a higher intelligibility improvement when compared to competing methods.

description: Using operator algebra, we extend the series for the activity density in a one-dimensional stochastic sandpile with fixed particle density p, the first terms of which were obtained via perturbation theory [R. Dickman and R. Vidigal, J. Phys. A35, 7269 (2002)]. The expansion is in powers of the time; the coefficients are polynomials in p. We devise an algorithm for evaluating expectations of operator products and extend the series to O(t^{16}). Constructing Pade approximants to a suitably transformed series, we obtain predictions for the activity that compare well against simulations, in the supercritical regime.

Knowledge Dissemination of a Qualitative Study in Perinatal and Trauma Informed Care : Caring for Trauma Impacted Women the “Wright Way”
Creators: name: Pirie, Alaina Elizabeth
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: The objective of this review is to examine the current literature relating to the topic of trauma informed care in the perinatal setting. The literature was critically appraised and themes were identified. The findings may be applied to implications for practice for the nurse practitioner and other providers of perinatal care. Knowledge gaps have been identified as well as future research recommendations. The current literature indicates the following necessary requirements for applying a trauma informed approach to the perinatal setting; acknowledgment of the prevalence of trauma and its effects, the integrated expansion of women’s services and involvement of women in program development, implementation and evaluation. Trauma informed care has recently emerged as framework in the perinatal setting. It may provide positive outcomes for clients as well as providers with the goal of improving health outcomes for trauma impacted women and their families. There are many knowledge gaps of trauma informed care in the perinatal setting in addition to the lack of training available to perinatal providers. Providing trauma informed care in the perinatal setting may change the way providers see and work with their clients and improve health outcomes. The outcome of this literature review is to identify the current state of knowledge in the field of trauma informed care, women and its application in the perinatal setting. Lastly, an article for publication will be written for a target audience of perinatal care providers offering practical methods on how to apply the trauma informed framework in the perinatal setting.
Distribution Effects of Land Use Policy: An Empirical Example of Forest and Range Policies in Arizona

Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 1977
Subjects: Land Economics/Use

description: Little empirical research pertaining to the distribution impacts of land use policy exists and a substantial research effort is warranted. This paper is a modest effort to increase interest in funding and conducting such research. The paper is divided into two major sections. The first section focuses on a case study of forest and range policy and the resulting changes in regional income distribution. The importance of this type of research is developed and the possibility of using very common empirical tools of the economist to conduct the research illustrated. The final portion of this first major section illustrates the results and types of policy implications which can be drawn from them. The second major section gives research needs in a broader sense.

description: We investigate the relation between the realization of center symmetry and the dependence on the topological parameter $θ$ in $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills theories, exploiting trace deformations as a tool to regulate center symmetry breaking in a theory with a small compactified direction. We consider, in particular, $SU(4)$ gauge theory, which admits two possible independent deformations, and study, as a first step, its phase diagram in the deformation plane for two values of the inverse compactified radius going up to $L^{-1} \sim 500$ MeV, comparing the predictions of the effective 1-loop potential of the Polyakov loop with lattice results. The $θ$-dependence of the various phases is then addressed, up to the fourth order in $θ$, by numerical simulations: results are found to coincide, within statistical errors, with those of the standard confined phase iff center symmetry is completely restored and independently of the particular way this happens, i.e. either by local suppression of the Polyakov loop traces or by long range disorder.

description: Excerpts from the report: The ideal temperature for maintaining quality in lettuce during marketing is 32 F. As the temperature rises above this optimum, soft rot decay increases, physiological disorders such as russet spotting 3 appear, and aging from natural respiratory processes is accelerated. When western lettuce is shipped to eastern markets, the time spent in transit accounts for most of the period between harvest and consumption. Significant departures from the optimum temperature that result from inadequate precooling of the lettuce or from insufficient refrigeration in transit and at the market can cause substantial wastage. The development of new railway equipment makes testing desirable to determine the effectiveness of the equipment in providing suitable transit temperatures. Multipurpose, mechanically refrigerated cars and ice-refrigerated cars equipped to give thermostatically controlled temperatures are now being constructed. Some are already available to shippers of perishable commodities. For these reasons, an accompanied lettuce transportation test was conducted from California to New York City in August 1957 to determine the effect of salting practices, size of load, pattern of loading, type of container, and type of railway equipment on transit temperatures of uniformly precooled lettuce. Studies were also conducted to relate the transit temperatures obtained in these tests to disorders and quality of the lettuce on the market. The studies are part of a broad program of continuing research designed to reduce the cost of marketing farm products.
