description: We report that single crystals of (Ba,K)Fe2As2 with Tc = 32 K have a pinning potential, U0, as high as 10^4 K, with U0 showing very little field depend-ence. In addition, the (Ba,K)Fe2As2 single crystals become isotropic at low temperatures and high magnetic fields, resulting in a very rigid vortex lattice, even in fields very close to Hc2. The rigid vortices in the two dimensional (Ba,K)Fe2As2 distinguish this compound from 2D high Tc cuprate superconductors with 2D vortices, and make it being capable of cearrying very high critical current.Flux jumping due to high Jc was also observed in large samples at low temperatures.

Whitening of Milk on Reddit

Publisher: name: University of Chicago
Year: 2023

description: Lactose intolerance, a genetic phenomenon that occurs naturally, becomes a controversial topic as some white nationalists make lactose persistence a point of the genetic or racial superiority of White people. This study focuses on analyzing Reddit discourses on lactose intolerance and genetics. It aims to answer the following three questions: Does Reddit discourse on lactose intolerance and genetics expose any evidence of a strong association between whiteness and lactose intolerance? Is there any evidence that reveals the association between lactose intolerance and the feeling of racial inferiority? Is there any evidence revealing that genetic ancestry tests are more like racial projects to support white supremacy? The study uses the combination of quantitative methods, such as LDA topic modeling, word co-occurrence, and a qualitative technique – content analysis to analyze Reddit data related to lactose intolerance and genetics from 2017 to 2022. It finds that Reddit users associate lactose intolerance closely with Asian population and Chinese food is being criticized due to the prevalence of lactose intolerance in Chinese population, whereas European food is privileged. Some users also associate the feeling of inferiority to lactose intolerance, even though the user is aware that lactose intolerance is attribute to genetic mutation. Lastly, genetic testing is often used by some people to prove or confirm their whiteness. This study benefits from using both quantitative and qualitative methods to conduct analysis that requires human interpretation, in the context of social media monitoring on sensitive language and topics related to racism. On the other hand, future studies need to expand the dataset and the platform of data sources.

description: We measured the first and higher components of ac susceptibilities of melted YBCO samples before and after hydrogenation by ms pulsed electrolysis. First component was measured versus temperature at fixed frequency while higher harmonics were measured versus frequencies at fixed temperature near critical temperature. All measurements were performed at fixed amplitude of ac magnetic field and zero dc magnetic field. The frequency and temperature behavior of the harmonic components before and after hydrogenation gave us information on possible dynamic losses in comparison to the flux pinning mechanism.

description: Over the last years several experimental and theoretical studies of diffusion kinetics on the nanoscale have shown that the time evolution differs from the classical Fickian law (kc=0.5). However, all work was based on crystalline samples or models, so far. In this letter, we report on the diffusion kinetics of a thin amorphous-Si layer into amorphous-Ge to account for the rising importance of amorphous materials in nanodevices. Employing surface sensitive technics, the initial kc was found at 0.7+-0.1. Moreover, after some monolayers of Si dissolved into the Ge, kc changes to the generally expected classical Fickian law with kc=0.5.

description: We have studied EuFe$_{2}$(As$_{0.7}$P$_{0.3}$)$_{2}$ by the measurements of x-ray diffraction, electrical resistivity, thermopower, magnetic susceptibility, magnetoresistance and specific heat. Partial substitution of As with P results in the shrinkage of lattice, which generates chemical pressure to the system. It is found that EuFe$_{2}$(As$_{0.7}$P$_{0.3}$)$_{2}$ undergoes a superconducting transition at 26 K, followed by ferromagnetic ordering of Eu$^{2+}$ moments at 20 K. This finding is the first observation of superconductivity stabilized by internal chemical pressure, and supplies a rare example showing coexistence of superconductivity and ferromagnetism in the ferro-arsenide family.

Spatial distribution and spawning migration of Kokanee (Oncorhynchus nerka) in Nicola Lake, British Columbia
Creators: name: Lorz, Harold William
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Vertical distribution and onshore movement of maturing kokanee were studied by means of extensive gill net sets in Nicola Lake between 1958 and 1961. In late spring of 1959 maturing kokanee were found largely in the upper 30 feet of the lake but gradually dispersed to occupy all depths to 100 feet by mid-summer. A diel vertical migration occurred in which maturing kokanee moved surfaceward during the day and downward at night in 1959. In 1961 the reverse condition was observed wherein kokanee avoided areas of bright illumination during the day but moved surfaceward at night. No effect on vertical distribution of kokanee by extensive and rapid fluctuations of the thermocline, initiated by wind induced seiches, was noted in 1959 or 1961. The 1961 vertical distribution appeared closely associated to light intensity. Seasonal and diel changes in diet were observed in 1959. Chironomid pupae were the dominant food organisms eaten in late spring and summer. Planktonic crustaceans were consumed in greatest numbers in late summer, autumn and spring. Kokanee captured in mid-summer in the surface water (0-25 feet) generally had been feeding on planktonic crustaceans whereas those taken from below 25 feet contained largely chironomid pupae and larvae. Onshore movement of mature kokanee toward a spawning stream was initiated by falling light intensity and intensified by strong onshore winds. Possible mechanisms of location of the spawning stream were investigated. Migration to an inlet spawning stream and movement within the stream were recorded at two traps, one situated at the stream mouth, the other 1000 feet upstream. Movement into the spawning stream occurred only at night and was unaffected by changes in stream temperature and flow. A significant correlation was found between daily number of kokanee entering the stream and strength of onshore winds. Differences in sex ratio of the spawning runs and length of mature kokanee were recorded and possible causal agents discussed.

description: We study the class of pulsating strings on AdS_4 x CP3. Using a generalized ansatz for pulsating string configurations we find new solutions of this class. Further we quasi-classically quantize the theory and obtain the first corrections to the energy. The latter, due to AdS/CFT correspondence, is supposed to give the anomalous dimensions of operators of the gauge theory dual N=6 Chern-Simons theory.

description: We  construct a low-energy effective field theory that permits the complete treatment of isospin-breaking effects in nonleptonic weak interactions to next-to leading- order. To this end we enlarge the chiral Lagrangian describing  strong and ΔS=1 weak interactions by including electromagnetic terms with the photon as additional dynamical degree of freedom. The complete and minimal list of local terms at next-to-leading order is given., We perform the one-loop renormazation at the level of the generating functional and specialize to K→ππ decays.
Power and spectral index anisotropy of the entire inertial range of turbulence in the fast solar wind

description: We measure the power and spectral index anisotropy of high speed solar wind turbulence from scales larger than the outer scale down to the ion gyroscale, thus covering the entire inertial range. We show that the power and spectral indices at the outer scale of turbulence are approximately isotropic. The turbulent cascade causes the power anisotropy at smaller scales manifested by anisotropic scalings of the spectrum: close to k^{-5/3} across and k^{-2} along the local magnetic field, consistent with a critically balanced Alfvenic turbulence. By using data at different radial distances from the Sun, we show that the width of the inertial range does not change with heliocentric distance and explain this by calculating the radial dependence of the ratio of the outer scale to the ion gyroscale. At the smallest scales of the inertial range, close to the ion gyroscale, we find an enhancement of power parallel to the magnetic field direction coincident with a decrease in the perpendicular power. This is most likely related to energy injection by ion kinetic modes such as the firehose instability and also marks the beginning of the dissipation range of solar wind turbulence.

description: We consider the classical correlations that two observers can extract by measurements on a bipartite quantum state, and we discuss how they are related to the quantum mutual information of the state. We show with several examples how complementarity gives rise to a gap between the quantum and the classical correlations, and we relate our quantitative finding to the so-called classical correlation locked in a quantum state. We derive upper bounds for the sum of classical correlation obtained by measurements in different mutually unbiased bases and we show that the complementarity gap is also present in the deterministic quantum computation with one quantum bit.

A study of the possible protection afforded by copper, ferrous and ferric ions against the actions of 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid
Creators: name: Jowett, Philip Anthony
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The possibility that iron and copper can ameliorate the effects of 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) on the morphology and yield of plants has been investigated by Wort (64). A study of the literature indicates that although there is considerable variation among plant species and also parts of the same plant, 2,4-D concentrations below 50 p.p.m. promote or have no effect on respiration, while higher concentrations are generally inhibitory. Photosynthesis is generally inhibited. An experiment was planned and executed to determine whether iron and copper protect against the effects of 2,4-D on photosynthesis and respiration, and on fresh, dry and ash weights. Each treatment was replicated six times. Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) plants were grown to the age required for treatment (4-7 weeks) in a hydroponic system. Treatment was applied either in the form of 'Attaclay' dust including growth substance and/or metal, or as aqueous spray in which the metal was applied two hours before the growth substance. At given intervals after treatment, photosynthesis and respiration in the leaflets were determined by the diethanolamine buffer method (60) on the Warburg apparatus. After the leaflets had been removed for the final determination of photosynthesis and respiration, the plants were harvested and their fresh, dry and ash weights were determined. A comparison was made of photosynthetic values based on both area and fresh weight. The results were analysed for statistical significance by the analysis of variance and Duncan's new multiple range test. Coefficients of variability (C.V.%) were calculated for the various measurements. In most cases the coefficients were shown to decrease by half during the course of the experiment. Results showed that 2,4-D was more inhibitory to gas exchange than its copper salt and also caused greater deformation of the plants. Further results indicated that application of iron with 2,4-D inhibited the effects measured for 2,4-D. Gas exchange values for the 2,4-D treated plants were frequently significantly different from those of plants treated two hours earlier with an iron spray. The iron spray when followed by 2,4-D application caused a significant height increase. This suggested that the effective concentration of 2,4-D had been lowered by the iron. These observations are discussed in the light of recent publications on the role of metal chelation in auxin action.

We prove the existence of a plane curve with non-abelian fundamental group of the complement which does not admit a mapping onto an orbifold with non-abelian fundamental group. We also find an affine manifold whose irreducible components of its characteristic varieties do not come from the pull-back of the characteristic varieties of an orbifold.

description: We demonstrate efficient and reversible mapping of a light field onto a thulium-doped crystal using an atomic frequency comb (AFC). Thanks to an accurate spectral preparation of the sample, we reach an efficiency of 9%. Our interpretation of the data is based on an original spectral analysis of the AFC. By independently measuring the absorption spectrum, we show that the efficiency is both limited by the available optical thickness and the preparation procedure at large absorption depth for a given bandwidth. The experiment is repeated with less than one photon per pulse and single photon counting detectors. We clearly observe that the AFC protocol is compatible with the noise level required for weak quantum field storage.

description: We present a study of accurate stellar parameters and iron abundances for 39 giants and 16 dwarfs in the 13 open clusters IC2714, IC4651, IC4756, NGC2360, NGC2423, NGC2447 (M93), NGC2539, NGC2682 (M67), NGC3114, NGC3680, NGC4349, NGC5822, NGC6633. The analysis was done using a set of high-resolution and high-S/N spectra obtained with the UVES spectrograph (VLT). These clusters are currently being searched for planets using precise radial velocities. For all the clusters, the derived average metallicities are close to solar. Interestingly, the values derived seem to depend on the line-list used. This dependence and its implications for the study of chemical abundances in giants stars are discussed. We show that a careful choice of the lines may be crucial for the derivation of metallicities for giant stars on the same metallicity scale as those derived for dwarfs. Finally, we discuss the implications of the derived abundances for the metallicity- and mass-giant planet correlation. We conclude that a good knowledge of the two parameters is necessary to correctly disentangle their influence on the formation of giant planets.

description: The QCD sum rule method is formulated for the strangeness +1 pentaquark baryon with isospin I=0 and spin-parity J^P = 3/2^\pm. The spin-3/2 states are considered to be narrower than the spin-1/2 ones, and thus may provide a natural explanation for the experimentally observed narrow width of Θ^+. In order to obtain reliable results in QCD sum rule calculations, we stress the importance of establishing a wide Borel window, where convergence of the operator product expansion and sufficient low-mass strength of the spectral function are guaranteed. To this end, we employ the difference of two independent correlators so that the high-energy continuum contribution is suppressed. The stability of the physical quantities against the Borel mass is confirmed within the Borel window. It is found that the sum rule gives positive evidence for the (I, J^P) = (0, 3/2^+) state with a mass of about 1.4 \pm 0.2 GeV, while we cannot extract any evidence for the (0, 3/2^-) state.

description: The scaling hypothesis postulates proportionality of two columns of the Majorana neutrino mass matrix in the flavor basis. This Ansatz was shown to lead to an inverted hierarchy and U_{e3} = 0. We discuss theoretical and phenomenological properties of this hypothesis. We show that (i) the neutrino mass matrix with scaling follows as a consequence of a generalized mu-tau symmetry imposed on the type-I see-saw model; (ii) there exists a unique texture for the Dirac mass matrix m_D which leads to scaling for arbitrary Majorana matrix M_R in the context of the type-I see-saw mechanism; (iii) unlike in the mu-tau symmetric case, a simple model with two right-handed neutrinos and scaling can lead to successful leptogenesis both with and without the inclusion of flavor effects.

description: Problem-based learning is a personality-oriented pedagogical method that motivates students to deep study the subject by actively gaining experience in solving problems open to discussion. Aim of the study was to assess the level of motivation for learning and self-esteem of students in the learning process by the method of problembased learning of higher medical education. Studied of the feedback of 6th-year students, taking into account the method of PBL, which was used in the educational process, as well as their self-assessment of their motivation in the learning process. It was found that problem-based learning using a virtual patient significantly increases the motivation of students to learn, improves the communicative qualities of future doctors, stimulates the formation of teamwork skills, promotes the development of independent thinking and independent decision-making, shifts the emphasis from the teacher as the center of the educational process towards the independent acquisition of scientific information and its analysis.

description: We propose a method to reconstruct and analyze a complex network from data generated by a spatio-temporal dynamical system, relying on the nonlinear mutual information of time series analysis and betweenness centrality of complex network theory. We show, that this approach reveals a rich internal structure in complex climate networks constructed from reanalysis and model surface air temperature data. Our novel method uncovers peculiar wave-like structures of high energy flow, that we relate to global surface ocean currents. This points to a major role of the oceanic surface circulation in coupling and stabilizing the global temperature field in the long term mean (140 years for the model run and 60 years for reanalysis data). We find that these results cannot be obtained using classical linear methods of multivariate data analysis, and have ensured their robustness by intensive significance testing.

description: Generally it is not adequate to calculate an allowable cut for a property by only one formula or method. Usually it is preferable to utilize all the information available with as many suitable formulae or methods as possible to obtain reasonable estimates of the yearly utilization rates by several approaches. For the University Research Forest fifteen different formulae and methods were selected for comparison, because their basic assumptions appeared applicable to this forest. The methods and formulae tested were: Methods: Area regulation, Area-volume check, Area-volume allotment, Barnes’ and H. A. Meyer's. Formulae: Austrian, Black Hills, Grosenbaugh, Hanzlik, Hundeshagen, Kemp, W. H. Meyer, S. Petrini (compound and simple interest) and Von Mantel. Appropriate inventory techniques were developed in order to collect the necessary information regarding rates of growth, mortality and numbers of trees per acre by diameter classes. Present and future decadal growing stocks were estimated. Simple and compound growth rates, including and excluding ingrowth, for all types were calculated separately for stands over eighty years of age and for stands under eighty years. The inventory was based on the areas and estimates taken from 1961 aerial photographs supplemented by both temporary and permanent sample plots, employing primarily the principles of the point sampling techniques as described by L. R. Grosenbaugh. After substituting the actual data into the formulae and various methods, allowable cut estimates for 3.1, 9.1, 11.1, and 13.1 inches minimum diameter limits were calculated. Allowances were made for an intermediate standard of utilization and for waste, breakage and decay. Considering the inventory and the allowable cut calculations it was found that: 1. Simple area regulation will lead to undesirably large fluctuations in allowable cut. 2. Volume formulae are useful means of determining the yearly harvest volume, though the distribution of the cut on the ground requires definition in terms of area as well. 3. Neither area nor volume control can be used exclusively. Some combination and integration is usually necessary in actual practice. In the case of the Research Forest this can be applied most conveniently by following the area-volume computation basis.

description: We report a novel quasi-phase matching technique for high-order harmonic generation in low-density gases. Numerical simulations show that in few-optical cycle pulsed Bessel beams it is possible to control the pulse envelope and phase velocities which in turn allows to control the carrier-envelope phase during propagation. The resulting oscillations in the peak intensity allow to phase-match the high-order harmonic generation process with a nearly two decade enhancement in the XUV power spectrum.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Utilizing recent neutrino dimuon production measurement from NuTeV the assumptions on the determination of the strangeness content of the nucleon within the dynamical approach to parton distributions are investigated. The data are found to be in good agreement with the predictions derived from our (GJR08) dynamical parton distributions, which have been generated entirely radiatively starting from vanishing strange input distributions at an optimally chosen low resolution scale. Further, the data induce an asymmetry in the strange sea which is found to be small and positive in agreement with previous results.

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We describe a Windows compatible version of the evolutionary synthesis code Starburst99. Starburst99 for Windows was developed from the public UNIX based version at STScI. We converted the original Fortran77 source code into a version for a Win32 environment with an Absoft Fortran Pro x86 compiler. Extensive testing showed no significant numerical differences in comparison with the previous UNIX version. The software application consists of the source code, executable, and a number of auxiliary files. The package installs on any PC running Windows 2000, XP, or Vista and can be obtained as freeware at http://www.stsci.edu/science/starburst/PCStarburst99.html. We give an overview of the different running modes and provide instructions for getting started with the initial set-up.

description: We present a Dalitz plot analysis of charmless B+- decays to the final state pi+-pi+-pi-+ using a sample of (465+-5)x10^-6 BBbar pairs collected by the BABAR experiment at \sqrt{s} = 10.58 GeV. We measure the branching fractions BF(B+- --> pi+-pi+-pi-+) = (15.2+-0.6+-1.2+-0.4)x10^-6, BF(B+- --> rho0(770)pi+-) = (8.1+-0.7+-1.2^{+0.4}_{-1.1})x10^-6, BF(B+- --> f2(1270)pi+-) = (1.57+-0.42+-0.16^{+0.53}_{-0.19})x10^-6, and BF(B+- --> pi+-pi+-pi-+ nonresonant) = (5.3+-0.7+-0.6^{+1.1}_{-0.5})x10^-6, where the uncertainties are statistical, systematic, and model-dependent, respectively. Measurements of branching fractions for the modes B+- --> rho0(1450)pi+- and B+- --> f0(1370)pi+- are also presented. We observe no significant direct CP asymmetries for the above modes, and there is no evidence for the decays B+- --> chiC0 pi+-, or B+- --> chiC2 pi+-.

Отмечается, что язык права и язык юридических документов не относятся к формализо-ванным языкам. Правовые метафоры можно подраз-делить на научные, профессиональные и норматив-ные. Метафора представлена не только как средство наглядности, но и в качестве инструмента научного познания. В правовой науке в последние годы отме-чается увлеченность правовой метафоризацией, что не всегда оправданно, нередко ведет к мнимым проб-лемам, неосновательному удвоению терминологии. Многие исследователи нарушают правила использо-вания метафор в научном юридическом познании и правоприменительной практике, что вредит прести-жу гуманитарной науки и снижает качество доктри-нальных исследований.
Antisymmetric magnetoresistance of the SrTiO3/LaAlO3 interface

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: The longitudinal resistance $R_{xx}$ of the SrTiO3/LaAlO3 interface with magnetic fields applied perpendicular to the interface has an antisymmetric term (namely, $R_{xx}(H)\neq R_{xx}(-H)$) which increases with decreasing temperature and increasing field. We argue that the origin of this phenomenon is a non-homogeneous Hall effect with clear contribution of an extraordinary Hall effect, suggesting the presence of non-uniform field-induced magnetization.
Emission line objects in NGC 6822. New Planetary Nebula candidates

description: Images obtained with the CTIO 4-m telescope and the MOSAIC-2 wide field camera in [O III] 5007 and Hαon-band and off-band filters are analyzed to search for emission lines objects in the galaxy NGC 6822. In particular we search for PN candidates. In addition, data of a sub-sample of objects obtained with ESO VLT-FORS2 are used to calibrate the MOSAIC imaging. A large number of line emission regions were detected, for which we measured instrumental magnitudes in all the filters. Based on some criteria to distinguish between PNe and compact HII regions, we found 26 PN candidates, increasing the known sample in 8 objects. Also we detected a number of compact HII regions and 20 stellar objects emitting in Halpha. For all the objects we present coordinates, instrumental magnitudes and nebular [O III] and Halpha+[N II] fluxes. The observed PNLF for the PN [O III] 5007 magnitudes and the cumulative PNLF were calculated. We confirm that the PNLF presents a dip similar to the one detected for the SMC at 2.5 mag down the maximum. The cumulative PNLF returns a value M^\star_{5007}=-3.71^{+0.21}_{-0.42} for the peak absolute magnitude of the PNLF which is faint compared to the value expected for galaxies with metallicity similar to the one of NGC 6822 but similar within uncertainties. From our best fit to the observed PNLF we obtained a rough distance modulus m-M = 23.64 ^{+0.23}_{-0.43} mag, which agrees within uncertainties with recent values reported in the literature. The number of PN in the brightest 0.5 mag normalized to the galactic bolometric luminosity, alpha_{0.5} was estimated to be (3.8^{+0.90}_{-0.71}) E-9, which is similar to the values derived for galaxies with recent star formation and small galaxies (M_B fainter than - 18 mag).

description: In this paper we present a statistical study of edge fluctuations taken with the Gas Puffing Imaging (GPI) diagnostics. We carry out a comparison of GPI signal from an extensive database including four devices (two Tokamaks and two Reversed Field Pinches). The data are analyzed in terms of their statistical moments Skewness and Kurtosis, as done in [B. Labit, et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{98}, 255002 (2007)]. The data align along parabolic curves, although different from machine to machine, with some spread around the best-fitting curve. A discussion about the meaning of the parabolic trend as well as the departure of real data from it is provided. A phenomenological model is finally provided, attempting to accomodate experimental evidence.

Flux Attractors and Generating Functions

Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We use the flux attractor equations to study IIB supergravity compactifications with ISD fluxes. We show that the attractor equations determine not just the values of moduli fields, but also the masses of those moduli and the gravitino. We then show that the flux attractor equations can be recast in terms of derivatives of a single generating function. We also find a simple expression for this generating function in terms of the gravitino mass, with both quantities considered as functions of the fluxes. For a simple prepotential, we explicitly solve the attractor equations. We conclude by discussing a thermodynamic interpretation of this generating function, and possible implications for the landscape.

On metric spaces with the properties of de Groot and Nagata in dimension one

description: A metric space $(X,d)$ has the de Groot property $GP_n$ if for any points $x_0,x_1,...,x_{n+2}\in X$ there are positive indices $i,j,k\le n+2$ such that $i\ne j$ and $d(x_i,x_j)\le d(x_0,x_k)$. If, in addition, $k\in\{i,j\}$ then $X$ is said to have the Nagata property $NP_n$. It is known that a compact metrizable space $X$ has dimension $dim(X)\le n$ iff $X$ has an admissible $GP_n$-metric iff $X$ has an admissible $NP_n$-metric. We prove that an embedding $f:(0,1)\to X$ of the interval $(0,1)$ into a locally connected metric space $X$ with property $GP_1$ (resp. $NP_1$) is open provided $f$ is an isometric embedding (resp. $f$ has distortion $Dist(f)=\|f\|_\Lip\cdot\|f^{-1}\|_\Lip<2$). This implies that the Euclidean metric cannot be extended from the interval $[-1,1]$ to an admissible $GP_1$-metric on the triode $T=[-1,1]\cup[0,i]$. Another corollary says that a topologically homogeneous $GP_1$-space cannot contain an isometric copy of the interval $(0,1)$ and a topological copy of the triode $T$ simultaneously. Also we prove that a $GP_1$-metric space $X$ containing an isometric copy of each compact $NP_1$-metric space has density not less than continuum.
