description: An investigation was carried out on Deoni animals of western India to study the allelic and genotypic frequencies in coding region of TYR gene as well as gene expression profile. The animals were grouped according to age, gender, strain and intensity of partial albinism (low, medium and high). The present study revealed that the genotypic frequency of TYR gene across different strains, gender, age group and level of partial albinism was found to be non-significant for both exon-I and exon-II. The AB genotype in Balankya (0.70) was observed highest genotypic frequency followed by Wanera (0.55) and Shewara (0.55) strains. The genotypic frequency of AB and BB genotypes were observed highest in male and female, respectively. In exon-I, genotype frequency of AA genotype was found highest (0.55) in low level of partial albinism. The allelic frequencies in Shewara strain, male and low level of partial albinism were 0.75, 0.63 and 0.73, respectively. However, in exon-II genotype frequency of AB and BB was observed highest (0.70) in Wanera and Balankya strains followed by AA genotype in Shewara (0.50). The highest genotypic frequency of AA (0.87) and BB (0.50) were in male and female, respectively. The genotype frequency of AB genotype was found highest in all level of partial albinism. The allelic frequency was highest (0.85 for B allele) in Wanera strain, male (0.80 for A allele) and high level (0.60 for A allele) of particle albinism. The highly significant (p = 0.002) expression of tyrosinase gene was observed in young animals as compared to adult animals. The TYR gene expression was significantly (p = 0.047) higher in animals with low intensity of partial albinism followed by in the animals with medium and high intensity. Therefore, it is inferred that the TYR gene expression in young animals were high and as compared to the old animals of Deoni cattle breed.

description: We present a pedagogical introduction to the problem of evolving a head on collision of two Aichelburg-Sexl gravitational shock waves in D-dimensions, using perturbative techniques. We follow a constructive approach with examples, going in some detail through: the set up of the exact initial conditions and their properties; perturbative methods in flat space-time with Green function solutions; and numerical strategies to evaluate the integral solutions. We also discuss, briefly, radiation extraction methods adapted to this problem, together with some of the results for this system.

description: Cytidine monophosphate-Nacetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) hydroxylase (CMAH) and glycoprotein, alpha1, 3-galactosyltransferase (GGTA1) double knockout (DKO) pig models were produced to reduce immune reaction for xenotransplantation. However, the role of Neu5Gc and α-Gal in pigs has not been fully elucidated and it is necessary to consider the after-effect of inactivation of GGTA1 and CMAH in pigs. Hematological profiles of DKO pigs were analyzed through complete blood count (CBC). Histology of liver and spleen of DKO were investigated, and lectin blotting and mass spectrometry (MS) were performed to explore glycosylation changes in red blood cell (RBC) membranes of DKO pigs. DKO pigs showed common clinical signs such as weakness (100%), dyspnea (90%) and constipation (65%). DKO pigs revealed a significant decrease in RBC, hemoglobin (HGB) and hematocrit (HGB), and an increase in white blood cell (WBC), lymphocyte (LYM), monocyte (MON), and erythrocyte mean corpuscular volume (MCV). DKO piglets showed swollen liver and spleen, and exhibited raised deposition of hemosiderin and severe bleeding. Lectin assay and MS proved variations in glycosylation on RBC membranes. GGTA1/CMAH DKO pigs developed pathological features which are similar to anemic symptoms, and the variations in glycosylation on RBC membranes of DKO pigs may be attributed to the pathologies observed.

description: We study $J/Ψ$ absorption in high multiplicity proton-proton (pp) collisions at $\sqrt {s_{NN}}=7\,$TeV. We predict a modification of the $J/Ψ$-yield within the UrQMD transport approach, where explicit interactions of the $J/Ψ$ with the surrounding comovers and a prehadronic phase with adjusted cross sections and $J/Ψ$ melting is included. We present the analog of the nuclear modification factor in pp collisions at various charged particle multiplicities. It turns out that $J/Ψ$-Mesons may be suppressed towards higher particle multiplicities in pp collisions at LHC energies.

description: Copy number variations (CNVs) are major forms of genetic variation with an increasing importance in animal genomics. This study used the Illumina BovineSNP 50 K BeadChip to detect the genome-wide CNVs in the Tharparkar cattle. With the aid of PennCNV software, we noticed a total of 447 copy number variation regions (CNVRs) across the autosomal genome, occupying nearly 2.17% of the bovine genome. The average size of detected CNVRs was found to be 122.2 kb, the smallest CNVR being 50.02 kb in size, to the largest being 1,232.87 Kb. Enrichment analyses of the genes in these CNVRs gave significant associations with molecular adaptation-related Gene Ontology (GO) terms. Most CNVR genes were significantly enriched for specific biological functions; signaling pathways, sensory responses to stimuli, and various cellular processes. In addition, QTL analysis of CNVRs described them to be linked with economically essential traits in cattle. The findings here provide crucial information for constructing a more comprehensive CNVR map for the indigenous cattle genome.

description: We discuss numerical challenges in calculating stable and unstable steady states of widely used dynamical semiconductor laser models. Knowledge of these states is valuable when analyzing laser dynamics and different properties of the lasing states. The example simulations and analysis mainly rely on 1(time)+1(space)-dimensional traveling-wave models, where the steady state defining conditions are formulated as a system of nonlinear algebraic equations. The per- formed steady state calculations reveal limitations of the Lang-Kobayashi model, explain nontrivial bias threshold relations in lasers with several electrical contacts, or predict and explain transient dynamics when simulating such lasers.

description: Nanoplastics (NP) are of environmental and human health concern. We tested a novel NP extraction method and scanning transmission X-ray spectro-microscopy (STXM) in combination with near-edge X-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy (NEXAFS) to image and identify individual NP in environmental and food matrices. We (1) discussed the potential of STXM compared to other methods potentially suitable for NP analysis, (2) applied the method on NP suspensions of eight of the most common polymers, (3) analyzed environmental water and soil samples spiked with NP and (4) characterized NP in tea water infused in plastic teabags and unspiked soil samples. Here we show that STXM has methodological advantages and that polymers give characteristic spectra, which allows NP identification in environmental and food matrices. For soils we deliver a visual and spectroscopic characterization of NP, proving their presence and highlighting their diversity. Thus, STXM, can be used for the detection and characterisation of NP in different types of matrices.

description: In this study, novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were found in the 5′-regulatory regions (promoters) of the bovine glucose transporter (GT) genes SLC2A12 and SLC5A1. These polymorphisms were shown to associate with certain milk production traits in HF cows, including milk yield, milk composition, and somatic cell count. It was shown that the SNP g.-671C > G (NC_037336.1: g.72224078C > G) in the SLC2A12 gene could be an effective marker of cattle production traits and that genotypes CC and CG are associated with the best productivity. The polymorphisms found in the SLC5A1 gene promoter also influenced milk production traits in HF cows, albeit to a lesser extent, and we propose that these polymorphisms could be useful as genetic markers for milk production traits in marker-assisted selection (MAS); however, this must be confirmed on larger populations of cattle. In addition, the presence of polymorphisms within promoter regions appears to affect the expression of GT genes in the cow mammary gland and modify transcription factor (TF) binding capacity.

A slow-light supermode realized by the collective resonance of high-Q and small-mode-volume photonic-crystal cavities successfully enhanced the efficiency of the spontaneous four-wave mixing process. The generation rate of photon pairs was improved by two orders of magnitude compared with that of a photonic-crystal line defect waveguide without a slow-light effect.

description: The Blackwater Ecological Preserve (BEP), located in southeastern Virginia, holds significant ecological importance as it contains the northernmost intact community of Pinus palustris, longleaf pine. At the BEP, we cored longleaf pine and recorded sample data including tree height and diameter at breast height (DBH). Two sites on the BEP, the 20’s series and 40’s series, were found to correlate within, but not between, sites. Statistical and qualitative analyses were conducted to find differences between the sites significant enough to affect correlation within a chronology. This data is being incorporated into a larger dendrochronology and climate analysis study on longleaf and other pine species on the BEP. This research is important for several reasons. Currently, no baseline master chronology exists for any tree species of the BEP, so the age of the pine populations is unknown. Additionally, there is a significant lack of research on climate related growth trends involving the longleaf pine near the northern range limit. The information produced from this study may have implications in the future management of the Preserve and its pine populations.

The guidelines apply to the quantitative analysis embedded in Task 4.2 – Representation of Im/migration in 10 countries and Task 4.3 – Representation of gender in 10 countries. The goal of this work package is to provide an in-depth analysis of media narratives, aiming at detecting to what degree platformization has been changing the representation of gender and im/migration in Europe. The specific focus will be on how platformization affects the process of Europeanisation and how Europe is represented through gender and im/migration.

description: Microplastic (MP) contamination has been reported to be higher in terrestrial compared to aquatic environments. This is probably due to the fact that plastic items are mostly produced and used in terrestrial environments and have a longer residence time. However, there are several links between the terrestrial and aquatic environments. We analyzed drainage water samples from agricultural soils in the Seeland, a heavily drained agriculturally intensive area in Switzerland for its MP (>100 μm) concentration and composition. We found MP in relevant numbers (mean 10.5 ± 9.5 N L−1). The polymers were mainly PA and PE, and the size distribution showed an exponential increase with decreasing particle size. The results show considerable MP concentrations in drainage water and imply a transport of MP in soils down to the drainage pipes. Given the large areas drained both in Switzerland and globally, it is proposed that MP leaching from soil can be a significant source of MP to aquatic ecosystems. Such a contribution should be considered when dealing with MP cycling on a local to global scale.

description: The meter-per-second precision achieved by today velocimeters enables the search for 1-10 M_Earth planets in the habitable zone of cool stars. This paper reports on the detection of 3 planets orbiting GJ163 (HIP19394), a M3 dwarf monitored by our ESO/HARPS search for planets. We made use of the HARPS spectrograph to collect 150 radial velocities of GJ163 over a period of 8 years. We searched the RV time series for coherent signals and found 5 distinct periodic variabilities. We investigated the stellar activity and casted doubts on the planetary interpretation for 2 signals. Before more data can be acquired we concluded that at least 3 planets are orbiting GJ163. They have orbital periods of P_b=8.632+-0.002, P_c=25.63+-0.03 and P_d=604+-8 days and minimum masses msini = 10.6+-0.6, 6.8+-0.9, and 29+-3 M_Earth, respectively. We hold our interpretations for the 2 additional signals with periods P_(e)=19.4 and P_(f)=108 days. The inner pair presents an orbital period ratio of 2.97, but a dynamical analysis of the system shows that it lays outside the 3:1 mean motion resonance. GJ163c, in particular, is a super-Earth with an equilibrium temperature of T_eq = (302+-10) (1-A)^(1/4) K and may lie in the so called habitable zone for albedo values (A=0.34-0.89) moderately higher than that of Earth (A_Earth=0.2-0.3).

title: Prevention of musculoskeletal injuries in orchestra musicians
Creators: name: Rousseau, C
Publisher: name: Liverpool John Moores University
Year: 2022

description: Playing-related musculoskeletal disorders are very common in musicians and, depending on their severity, they could potentially endanger their whole career. Understanding the main risk factors leading to their development or relapse is one of the very first milestone for developing useful assessment tools, treatment guidelines or preventive programmes. Although research and clinical practice have evolved considerably and have increased our ability to manage musicians’ injuries, there is still a lack of detailed understanding of risk factors leading to potential injuries. The overall purpose of this work was to increase knowledge of injury risk factors predisposing musicians for developing playing-related musculoskeletal disorders in order to better prevent these injuries. The first study aimed to develop a comprehensive theoretical model about the risk factors for developing injuries related to the instrumental practice while being an orchestra musician. This model classified risk factors into nine categories and fifty-five different items to consider when looking after musicians. The main aim of this first step was to provide foundations to then develop tools to better investigate and assess musicians’ health, providing useful resources to both healthcare practitioners and musicians (professionals, students, teachers, etc.) to enhance preventive interventions for playing-related musculoskeletal disorders. Based on this model, two separate tools were developed and tested to assess musicians’ health: the Injury Risk Factors Questionnaire for Musicians, a self-report survey to screen a large number of risk factors and a comprehensive physical examination. Moreover, based on this risk factor model and on a literature review, the Postural Analysis Tool for Musicians has been described in order to better investigate musicians’ posture and playing technique. Among psycho-social factors, pain beliefs are described in the general population as being potentially associated with chronic pain. The third study focused on investigating pain beliefs in musicians, which highlighted the potential need to explain better to musicians, and particularly musicians who report PRMDs, what really are pain mechanisms. Finally, the extraordinary situation we lived through in the past two years has overwhelmed the music industry to a dramatic extent. In order to monitor how the Covid-19 pandemic affected musicians’ health, questionnaires were sent to orchestra musicians before and after their return-to-work following the first lockdown. Pain prevalence were lower than those reported in literature, as well as number of playing hours per week which showed a significant reduction.This study highlighted the need to plan the return-to-work in order to avoid an important PRMDs emergence by increasing the musicians’ playing load suddenly. These findings provide important knowledge about injury risk factors and expand the possibilities for protecting musicians’ health.

description: Computational thinking is a new problem soling method named for its extensive use of computer science techniques. It synthesizes critical thinking and existing knowledge and applies them in solving complex technological problems. The term was coined by J. Wing, but the relationship between computational and critical thinking, the two modes of thiking in solving problems, has not been yet learly established. This paper aims at shedding some light into this relationship. We also present two classroom experiments performed recently at the Graduate Technological Educational Institute of Patras in Greece. The results of these experiments give a strong indication that the use of computers as a tool for problem solving enchances the students' abilities in solving real world problems involving mathematical modelling. This is also crossed by earlier findings of other researchers for the problem solving process in general (not only for mathematical problems).

description: We present a spectroscopic study with the derivation of the physical properties of 37 Balmer break galaxies, which have the necessary lines to locate them in star-forming-AGN diagnostic diagrams. These galaxies span a redshift range from 0.045 to 0.93 and are somewhat less massive than similar samples of previous works. The studied sample has multiwavelength photometric data coverage from the ultraviolet to MIR Spitzer bands. We investigate the connection between star formation and AGN activity via optical, mass-excitation (MEx) and MIR diagnostic diagrams. Through optical diagrams, 31 (84%) star-forming galaxies, 2 (5%) composite galaxies and 3 (8%) AGNs were classified, whereas from the MEx diagram only one galaxy was classified as AGN. A total of 19 galaxies have photometry available in all the IRAC/Spitzer bands. Of these, 3 AGN candidates were not classified as AGN in the optical diagrams, suggesting they are dusty/obscured AGNs, or that nuclear star formation has diluted their contributions. Furthermore, the relationship between SFR surface density (Σ_{SFR}) and stellar mass surface density per time unit (Σ_{M_{\ast}/τ}) as a function of redshift was investigated using the [OII] \lambda3727, 3729, Hα\lambda6563 luminosities, which revealed that both quantities are larger for higher redshift galaxies. We also studied the SFR and SSFR versus stellar mass and color relations, with the more massive galaxies having higher SFR values but lower SSFR values than less massive galaxies. These results are consistent with previous ones showing that, at a given mass, high-redshift galaxies have on average larger SFR and SSFR values than low-redshift galaxies. Finally, bluer galaxies have larger SSFR values than redder galaxies and for a given color the SSFR is larger for higher redshift galaxies.

description: Inadvertent consumption of latent microplastics is a lethal challenge for developing creatures in aquatic environments. There are compelling needs to classify which kinds of plastics are most likely to be encountered by sea creatures and to develop mitigation strategies to reduce exposure. We analyzed an ensemble of microplastic particle fragments isolated from sea turtle post-hatchlings to identify their composition and other features and attributes. These microplastic particles were likely consumed by post-hatchlings because of the adsorbed biofilm formation mimicking normal food sources. Of the hundreds of particles that were collected, 30 were selected for analysis using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and density assessment to identify them compared with other compositional libraries. These thermophysical measurements were also compared with observational assessments via optical microscopy. Of the particles tested, nearly all were polyolefins such as polyethylene and polypropylene. The melting points of the extracted polymers were typically lower than for product grades of these resins, indicative of some level of degradation. Spectral analysis by FTIR often showed absorption indicative of new chemistries likely from both hydrolysis and biofilm growth observed on the surface that was subsequently investigated through surface abrading. Separate assessments of density of these particles were conducted and tended to reinforce identification via FTIR and DSC. The density results can be misleading if additives, fillers or biofilms that form alter the particle density relative to those of the neat resins. We suggest that since post-hatchlings commonly feed in the neritic or nearshore environment, less dense polymers are more likely to convey, thereby threatening sea turtle hatchlings who consume them inadvertently.

description: Turing models have been proposed to explain the emergence of digits during limb development. However, so far the molecular components that would give rise to Turing patterns are elusive. We have recently shown that a particular type of receptor-ligand interaction can give rise to Schnakenberg-type Turing patterns, which reproduce patterning during lung and kidney branching morphogenesis. Recent knock-out experiments have identified Smad4 as a key protein in digit patterning. We show here that the BMP-receptor interaction meets the conditions for a Schnakenberg-type Turing pattern, and that the resulting model reproduces available wildtype and mutant data on the expression patterns of BMP, its receptor, and Fgfs in the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) when solved on a realistic 2D domain that we extracted from limb bud images of E11.5 mouse embryos. We propose that receptor-ligand-based mechanisms serve as a molecular basis for the emergence of Turing patterns in many developing tissues.

description: Sprache formt die Wirklichkeit, in der wir leben. Diese Annahme bedeutet im Umkehrschluss, dass wir durch eine bewusste Nutzung von Sprache diese Wirklichkeit mitgestalten können. Dies ist ein grundlegender Gedanken vieler sozialer Bewegungen, so auch von trans* Bewegungen weltweit. Gerade für Personengruppen, die sehr lange abwertenden, stigmatisierenden und verletzenden Fremdbezeichnungen ausgesetzt waren oder es noch immer sind, spielt die selbstbestimmte Bezeichnung von Identitäten eine große Rolle. Gleichzeitig sind Selbstbezeichnungen komplex, vielfältig und ständig im Wandel, sodass der Versuch einer Beschreibung und Einordnung von Begrifflichkeiten immer eine lokal und zeitlich begrenzte Momentaufnahme bleiben muss. Dies gilt auch für den folgenden Versuch eines kurzen Überblicks über Begriffe, die seit dem letzten Jahrhundert für trans* Personen im deutschsprachigen Raum wichtig waren oder sind.

description: Transneptunian objects (TNOs) are bodies populating the Kuiper Belt and they are believed to retain the most pristine and least altered material of the solar system. The Herschel Open Time Key Program entitled "TNOs are Cool: A survey of the trans-Neptunian region" has been awarded 373 h to investigate the albedo, size distribution and thermal properties of TNOs and Centaurs. Here we focus on the brightest targets observed by both the PACS and SPIRE multiband photometers: the dwarf planet Haumea, six TNOs (Huya, Orcus, Quaoar, Salacia, 2002 UX25, and 2002 TC302), and two Centaurs (Chiron and Chariklo). Flux densities are derived from PACS and SPIRE instruments using optimised data reduction methods. The spectral energy distribution obtained with the Herschel PACS and SPIRE instruments over 6 bands (centred at 70, 100, 160, 250, 350, and 500 $μ$m), and with Spitzer-MIPS at 23.7 and 71.4 $μ$m has been modelled with the NEATM thermal model in order to derive the albedo, diameter, and beaming factor. For the Centaurs Chiron and Chariklo and for the 1000 km sized Orcus and Quaoar, a thermophysical model was also run to better constrain their thermal properties. We derive the size, albedo, and thermal properties, including thermal inertia and surface emissivity, for the 9 TNOs and Centaurs. Several targets show a significant decrease in their spectral emissivity longwards of $\sim$300 $μ$m and especially at 500 $μ$m. Using our size estimations and the mass values available in the literature, we also derive the bulk densities for the binaries Quaoar/Weywot (2.18$^{+0.43}_{-0.36}$ g/cm$^3$), Orcus/Vanth (1.53$^{+0.15}_{-0.13}$ g/cm$^3$), and Salacia/Actea (1.29$^{+0.29}_{-0.23}$ g/cm$^3$). Quaoar's density is similar to that of the other dwarf planets Pluto and Haumea, and its value implies high contents of refractory materials mixed with ices.

description: Continuing work initiated in an earlier publication [Ichita, Yamada and Asada, Phys. Rev. D 83, 084026 (2011)], we reexamine the post-Newtonian effects on Lagrange's equilateral triangular solution for the three-body problem. For three finite masses, it is found that a triangular configuration satisfies the post-Newtonian equation of motion in general relativity, if and only if it has the relativistic corrections to each side length. This post-Newtonian configuration for three finite masses is not always equilateral and it recovers previous results for the restricted three-body problem when one mass goes to zero. For the same masses and angular velocity, the post-Newtonian triangular configuration is always smaller than the Newtonian one.

title: Vocati atque non vocati mortui adsunt : C.G. Jung and the dead: 'the red book' and 'memories, dreams, reflections' 1896-1916
Creators: name: Stephens, Stephani
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2023

description: The dead who appeared in the dreams and visions of C.G.Jung profoundly influenced the psychologist's experience and understanding of the unconscious. Jung's model of the psyche emerged from his numerous encounters with figures of the unconscious, yet principally among these were the recurrent appearances of the dead. Until the publication of The Red Book the dead were interpreted metaphorically and very little research focused on how Jung used the term. The Red Book now reveals a great deal of material in which Jung interacts with the dead who are specifically identified as discarnates or disembodied souls. These encounters, I suggest, influenced Jung's concept of the unconscious and appear to have played a much more central role in the genesis of Jung's psychological model than was previously considered. Rather than a symbolic interpretation, the dead as literal players in Jung's discoveries can now be credited with having contributed to Jung's ideas about the unconscious and its workings. By way of a chronological analysis of Jung's personal material between 1896 and 1916, this thesis closely examines Jung's encounters with the dead considering their literal significance. These varied and detailed exchanges demonstrate how Jung experienced the dead alongside other figures of the unconscious who acted like split- off parts of his personal psyche. As a result, these interactions assisted Jung in grasping the dynamic nature of the unconscious as both place and process and one in which he effected change through participation. Jung's personal thoughts about the dead included in his commentaries in The Red Book highlight how he considered these encounters, the role of the dead in his life, and his obligation to them as a community. As a result, his work titled Septem Sermones Ad Mortuos, included in the section titled Scrutinies, can now be reinterpreted as a work composed specifically for the dead in preparation for their lives as newly discarnate figures, and ultimately stands as Jung's gesture of service to them.

description: The cold dark matter (CDM) cosmological model has been remarkably successful in explaining cosmic structure over an enormous span of redshift, but it has faced persistent challenges from observations that probe the innermost regions of dark matter halos and the properties of the Milky Way's dwarf galaxy satellites. We review the current observational and theoretical status of these "small scale controversies." Cosmological simulations that incorporate only gravity and collisionless CDM predict halos with abundant substructure and central densities that are too high to match constraints from galaxy dynamics. The solution could lie in baryonic physics: recent numerical simulations and analytic models suggest that gravitational potential fluctuations tied to efficient supernova feedback can flatten the central cusps of halos in massive galaxies, and a combination of feedback and low star-formation efficiency could explain why most of the dark matter subhalos orbiting the Milky Way do not host visible galaxies. However, it is not clear that this solution can work in the lowest mass galaxies where discrepancies are observed. Alternatively, the small-scale conflicts could be evidence of more complex physics in the dark sector itself. For example, elastic scattering from strong dark matter self-interactions can alter predicted halo mass profiles, leading to good agreement with observations across a wide range of galaxy mass. Gravitational lensing and dynamical perturbations of tidal streams in the stellar halo provide evidence for an abundant population of low mass subhalos in accord with CDM predictions. These observational approaches will get more powerful over the next few years.

description: We investigate theoretically the V-I characteristics and voltage noise of superconducting tunnel junctions with small critical current via the matrix-continued-fraction method. Special attention is paid to the large hysteresis in the V-I characteristics and to the voltage-noise anomaly observed in preliminary experiments. The current dependence of the voltage noise shows a strong asymmetry between the forward and backward current ramping and a discontinuous change of the noise close to its measured maximum occurring at the switching current. We show that both the large hysteresis and the voltage noise anomaly in this current-biased setup are a consequence of the influence of junction's electromagnetic environment. Typically, the voltage-noise dependence on the junction current parametrized by the external drive contains a loop which is, however, not observed experimentally because of the implementation of the junction-current ramp. Skipping a part of the loop is responsible for the observed hysteresis as well as the noise anomaly.

description: Magnetization dynamic response of coupled and uncoupled spin valves with structure NiFe(20 nm)/Cu(t_Cu)/NiFe(20 nm)/IrMn(10nm) were probed using broadband ferromagnetic resonance absorption measurements. By varying the Cu thickness t_Cu we were able to tailor the coupling intensity between the free and pinned layers. Broadband spectra show two resonant modes for each measured field. It is noticed that the coupling among NiFe layers modifies the amplitude of the absorption peaks and, moreover, the dispersion relations of the modes, which are distorted specially at the anti-parallel state. A numerical model is proposed and applied to address the underlying physics and the observed properties of these systems.
