description: Objective This paper reports development of the Family Management Measure (FaMM) of parental perceptions of family management of chronic conditions. Method By telephone interview, 579 parents of children age 3 to 19 with a chronic condition (349 partnered mothers, 165 partners, 65 single mothers) completed the FaMM and measures of child functional status and behavioral problems and family functioning. Analyses addressed reliability, factor structure, and construct validity. Results Exploratory factor analysis yielded six scales: Child's Daily Life, Condition Management Ability, Condition Management Effort, Family Life Difficulty, Parental Mutuality, and View of Condition Impact. Internal consistency reliability ranged from .72 to .91, and test-retest reliability from .71 to .94. Construct validity was supported by significant correlations in hypothesized directions between FaMM scales and established measures. Conclusion Results support FaMM's; reliability and validity, indicating it performs in a theoretically meaningful way and taps distinct aspects of family response to childhood chronic conditions.

description: We study the asymptotic behaviour of solutions to the delayed monostable equation $(*)$: $u_{t}(t,x) = u_{xx}(t,x) - u(t,x) + g(u(t-h,x)),$ $x \in R,\ t >0,$ with monotone reaction term $g: R_+ \to R_+$. Our basic assumption is that this equation possesses pushed traveling fronts. First we prove that the pushed wavefronts are nonlinearly stable with asymptotic phase. Moreover, combinations of these waves attract, uniformly on $R$, every solution of equation $(*)$ with the initial datum sufficiently rapidly decaying at one (or at the both) infinities of the real line. These results provide a sharp form of the theory of spreading speeds for equation $(*)$.

description: Contexte : Le pied bot varus équin (PBVE) se définit par une malformation congénitale tridimensionnelle du pied. En l’absence de traitement, l’obtention de la marche devient impossible entrainant un handicap majeur. Les études actuelles signalent de meilleurs résultats avec les traitements conservateurs par rapport aux chirurgies. Deux méthodes conservatrices sont actuellement pratiquées : la méthode Ponseti (MP) et la méthode fonctionnelle française (MFF). Cependant, aucun consensus n’existe au sujet de la méthode optimale à pratiquer. Objectif: L’objectif de cette revue de la littérature est d’évaluer les deux méthodes de traitements conservateurs en comparant les analyses de la marche sur une population âgée de 2 et de 5 ans. Méthodologie: La recherche d’articles s’est effectuée sur les bases de données Pubmed, CINAHL, Ovid, Embase et Cochrane Library en incluant des articles prospectifs, quantitatifs et non-randomisés. Les études devaient effectuer une analyse de la marche à 2 ou à 5 ans avec des enfants atteints de PBVE et traités par une des deux méthodes conservatrices. Résultats : Les quatre articles retenus obtiennent de faibles résultats à la checklist de Downs et Black (1998) (10-11/32 points). Globalement, la MP observe de meilleurs résultats à la marche à 2 ans alors qu’à 5 ans, les enfants présentaient moins d’anomalies après un traitement selon la MFF. Conclusion : Notre travail ne permet pas de déterminer le traitement conservateur optimal. De ce fait, davantage d’études comparant les deux méthodes sont nécessaires.

description: Objective The aim of this study was to determine whether young boys with fragile X syndrome (FXS) exhibit abnormal physiological or behavioral responses to a moderately intense auditory stimulus, as heightened sensory reactivity is believed to contribute to problem behaviors in this population. Methods We examined the physiological basis, via heart activity, of auditory startle in young boys with FXS (n = 22) compared with typically developing controls (n = 27). Associations with mental age, behavioral reactivity, and chronological age were examined. Results Results suggest that older boys with FXS display increased cardiac reactivity to auditory input than younger boys with FXS that distinguishes them from typically developing controls. Higher mental age was associated with decreased latency to react. Conclusions Results contribute to increased understanding of the pathology in sensory processing in boys with FXS, which can inform refinement of the phenotype in young children with FXS and aid in the development of efficacious psychopharmacological and/or behavioral interventions.

description: The savanna theory of happiness proposes that, due to evolutionary constraints on the human brain, situations and circumstances that would have increased our ancestors’ happiness may still increase our happiness today, and those that would have decreased their happiness then may still decrease ours today. It further proposes that, because general intelligence evolved to solve evolutionarily novel problems, this tendency may be stronger among less intelligent individuals. Because humans are a diurnal species that cannot see in the dark, darkness always represented danger to our ancestors and may still decrease our happiness today. Consistent with this prediction, the analysis of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) data shows that exposure to sunlight was associated with happiness but the association was significantly weaker among more intelligent individuals.

description: Objective To offer a practical demonstration of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses, diagnostic efficiency statistics, and their application to clinical decision making using a popular parent checklist to assess for potential mood disorder. Method Secondary analyses of data from 589 families seeking outpatient mental health services, completing the Child Behavior Checklist and semi-structured diagnostic interviews. Results Internalizing Problems raw scores discriminated mood disorders significantly better than did age- and gender-normed T scores, or an Affective Problems score. Internalizing scores <8 had a diagnostic likelihood ratio <0.3, and scores >30 had a diagnostic likelihood ratio of 7.4. Conclusions This study illustrates a series of steps in defining a clinical problem, operationalizing it, selecting a valid study design, and using ROC analyses to generate statistics that support clinical decisions. The ROC framework offers important advantages for clinical interpretation. Appendices include sample scripts using SPSS and R to check assumptions and conduct ROC analyses.

description: The lithospheric architecture of passive margins is crucial for understanding the tectonic processes that caused the breakup of Gondwana. We highlight the evolution of the South Atlantic passive margins by a simple thermal lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary (LAB) model based on onset and cessation of rifting, crustal thickness, and stretching factors. We simulate lithospheric thinning and select the LAB as the T = 1,330°C isotherm, which is calculated by 1D advection and diffusion. Stretching factors and margin geometry are adjusted to state-of-the-art data sets, giving a thermal LAB model that is especially designed for the continental margins of the South Atlantic. Our LAB model shows distinct variations along the passive margins that are not imaged by global LAB models, indicating different rifting mechanisms. For example, we model up to 200 km deep lithosphere in the South American Santos Basin and shallow lithosphere less than 60 km in the Namibe Basin offshore Africa. These two conjugate basins reflect a strong asymmetry in LAB depth that resembles variations in margin width. In a Gondwana reconstruction, we discuss these patterns together with seismic velocity perturbations for the Central and Austral Segments of the margins. The shallow lithosphere in the Namibe Basin correlates with signatures of the Angola Dome, attributed to epeirogenic uplift in the Neogene, suggesting an additional component of post-breakup lithospheric thinning.

description: Introduction : La population âgée est en constante augmentation. Ce vieillissement entraine des déficits de mobilité. Pour faire face à cette problématique, les recommandations suggèrent diverses méthodes comme l’entretien de la mobilité, le renforcement ou le travail aérobie. La stimulation auditive rythmique, semble être une bonne alternative à la prise en charge des personnes âgées, autant par son côté ludique que social. L’objectif de cette revue est d’identifier les effets de la stimulation auditive rythmique sur la mobilité des sujets âgés. Méthode : Cette revue de la littérature quantitative non systématique a nécessité des recherches sur Pubmed, CINHAL, PEDro et Cochrane Library. Les critères d’inclusion étaient : les personnes âgées de plus de 65 ans ne présentant pas de troubles musculosquelettiques ou neurologiques et une intervention utilisant la SAR. L’entièreté des articles a été évaluée par la grille McMaster. Résultats : Cinq articles ont été retenus, dont deux RCT. Les résultats portent sur la marche, l’équilibre et la mobilité. Les différents outcomes évalués montrent des améliorations significatives suite à la SAR, et une follow-up montre le maintien de ces résultats sur quatre ans. Conclusion : L’utilisation de la SAR permettrait une amélioration significative sur la mobilité des personnes âgées. Elle serait plus bénéfique si son utilisation est d’une heure par semaine pendant six mois. Toutefois, le manque d’articles de bonnes qualités ne permet pas d’affirmer ces résultats. Des études supplémentaires seraient nécessaires pour créer un protocole standardisé.

description: As the ubiquity of technology-mediated communication grows, so does the number of questions about the costs and benefits of replacing in-person interactions with technology-mediated ones. In the present study, we used a daily diary design to examine how people’s emotional experiences vary across in-person, video-, phone-, and text-mediated interactions in day-to-day life. We hypothesised that individuals would report less positive affect and more negative affect after less life-like interactions (where in-person is defined as the most life-like and text-mediated as the least life-like). In line with this hypothesis, the analysis of 527 unique interactions reported by 102 individuals (mean age = 19.3; 85.6% female) over the course of 7 days reveals that people feel lonelier, sadder, less affectionate, less supported, and less happy following less life-like interactions. Additional analyses show that the links between life-like communication and momentary experiences are independent of properties of individual interactions such as interaction length and participants’ overall evaluations of interaction quality. These findings provide initial evidence that there may be inherent properties of common technology-mediated communication tools that may lead to momentary changes in affective experiences and make social connection more challenging.

description: Small asteroids are often considered to be rubble-pile objects, and such asteroids may be the most likely type of Near Earth Objects (NEOs) to pose a threat to Earth. However, impact cratering on such bodies is complex and not yet understood. We perform three low-velocity (≈ 400 m/s) impact experiments in granular targets with and without projectile-size boulders. We conducted SPH simulations that closely reproduced the impact experiments. Our results suggest that cratering on heterogeneous targets displaces and ejects boulders, rather than fragmenting them, unless directly hit. We also see indications that as long as the energy required to disrupt the boulder is small compared to the kinetic energy of the impact, the disruption of boulders directly hit by the projectile may have minimal effect on the crater size. The presence of boulders within the target causes ejecta curtains with higher ejection angles compared to homogeneous targets. At the same time, there is a segregation of the fine ejecta from the boulders, resulting in boulders landing at larger distances than the surrounding fine grained material. However, boulders located in the target near the maximum extent of the expanding excavation cavity are merely exhumed and distributed radially around the crater rim, forming ring patterns similar to the ones observed on asteroids Itokawa, Ryugu and Bennu. Altogether, on rubble-pile asteroids this process will redistribute boulders and finer-grained material heterogeneously, both areally around the crater and vertically in the regolith. In the context of a kinetic impactor on a rubble-pile asteroid and the DART mission, our results indicate that the presence of boulders will reduce the momentum transfer compared to a homogeneous, fine-grained target.

description: We report time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements on the topological insulator Bi2Se3. We observe oscillatory modulations of the electronic structure of both the bulk and surface states at a frequency of 2.23 THz due to coherent excitation of an A1g phonon mode. A distinct, additional frequency of 2.05 THz is observed in the surface state only. The lower phonon frequency at the surface is attributed to the termination of the crystal and thus reduction of interlayer van der Waals forces, which serve as restorative forces for out-of-plane lattice distortions. DFT calculations quantitatively reproduce the magnitude of the surface phonon softening. These results represent the first band-resolved evidence of the A1g phonon mode coupling to the surface state in a topological insulator.

description: The least squares estimator can be cast as depending only on the precision matrix of the data, similar to the weights of a global minimum variance portfolio. We give conditions under which any plug-in precision matrix estimator produces an unbiased and consistent least squares estimator for stationary time series regressions, in both low- and high-dimensional settings. Such conditions define a class of “Precision Least Squares” (PrLS) estimators, which are shown to be approximately Gaussian, efficient, and to provide automatic family-wise error control in large samples. For estimating high-dimensional sparse regression models, we propose a LASSO Cholesky estimator of the plug-in precision matrix. We show its consistency and how to properly bias correct it, thereby obtaining a LASSO Cholesky-based PrLS (LC-PrLS) estimator. LC-PrLS performs well in finite samples and better than state-of-the-art high-dimensional estimators. We employ LC-PrLS to investigate the dynamic network of predictive connections among a large set of global bank stock returns. We find that crisis years correspond to a collapse of predictive linkages.

description: A large amount of data and applications need to be shared with various parties and stakeholders in the cloud environment for storage, computation, and data utilization. Since a third party operates the cloud platform, owners cannot fully trust this environment. However, it has become a challenge to ensure privacy preservation when sharing data effectively among different parties. This paper proposes a novel model that partitions data into sensitive and non-sensitive parts, injects the noise into sensitive data, and performs classification tasks using k-anonymization, differential privacy, and machine learning approaches. It allows multiple owners to share their data in the cloud environment for various purposes. The model specifies communication protocol among involved multiple untrusted parties to process owners data. The proposed model preserves actual data by providing a robust mechanism. The experiments are performed over Heart Disease, Arrhythmia, Hepatitis, Indian-liver-patient, and Framingham datasets for Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbor, Random Forest, Naive Bayes, and Artificial Neural Network classifiers to compute the efficiency in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score of the proposed model. The achieved results provide high accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score up to 93.75%, 94.11%, 100%, and 87.99% and improvement up to 16%, 29%, 12%, and 11%, respectively, compared to previous works.

description: Primary therapy for biliary atresia is a surgical hepatoportoenterostomy (Kasai procedure), which has been shown to reduce mortality, but is frequently complicated by ascending cholangitis and the development of biliary cirrhosis. Previously reported therapy for recurrent cholangitis caused by biliary obstruction has included surgical revision and percutaneous biliary drainage, but ERCP has not been previously described. Here we report a patient with recurrent cholangitis following a Kasai procedure and an anastomotic stricture successfully treated with single balloon enteroscopy-assisted ERCP. This novel technique could be considered in patients with this common complication of the Kasai procedure, and may impact long-term outcomes in this patient population.

description: We report on the risk of miscarriage due to high dosage periconceptional folic acid (FA) supplementation from a double blind randomized clinical trial for prevention of orofacial clefts in Brazil. The miscarriage rate was 14.2% in the low dose FA group (0.4 mg per day) and 11.3% for the high dose (4 mg per day) group (p=0.4877); the population miscarriage rate is 14%. These results indicate that high dose FA does not increase miscarriage risk in this population and add further information to the literature on the safety of high FA supplementation for prevention of birth defect recurrence.

description: Introduction : L’instabilité chronique de cheville (ICC) représente l’évolution fréquente de l’entorse latérale de cheville, une des pathologies les plus courantes dans le sport. Pour l’évaluer, l’outil de mesure majoritairement accepté est le questionnaire subjectif Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT). Malgré l’abondance de tests cliniques de laxité ligamentaire et de contrôle postural présents dans la littérature, il subsiste un manque de consensus définissant s’ils permettent d’identifier et d'objectiver une ICC, au même titre que le CAIT. Ce Travail de Bachelor, basé sur les fondements d’une revue de littérature, vise à déterminer si des tests cliniques permettent d’évaluer l’instabilité chronique de cheville avec la même valeur diagnostique que ce questionnaire de référence. Méthodologie : Des recherches sur les bases de données PubMed, CINAHL et Embase ont été conduites entre septembre 2016 et janvier 2017. Quatre articles ont été retenus et leurs qualités méthodologiques ont été appréciées à l’aide d’une grille McMaster. Résultats : Les études affichent des qualités méthodologiques variables à la grille McMaster, au vue des réponses obtenues à ses différents items. La corrélation entre les tests cliniques de laxité articulaire instrumentaux et manuel ou de contrôle postural statique et dynamique de cheville au CAIT est insuffisante. Conclusion : Les tests cliniques ne pouvant remplacer le CAIT dans le diagnostic d’une ICC, ils restent une valeur ajoutée pour l’affiner et guider le traitement. Des recherches avec des populations plus grandes et plus homogènes sont nécessaires pour obtenir des résultats plus fiables.

description: ObjectiveThis study evaluated peripheral vasoconstriction in ELBW infants when body temperature decreased during the first 12-hours of life.DesignAn exploratory, within-subjects design with 10 ELBW infants. Abdominal and foot temperatures were measured every minute. Peripheral vasoconstriction (abdominal > peripheral temperature by 2° C) and abdominal-peripheral temperature difference were also evaluated.ResultsAbdominal and peripheral temperatures were significantly correlated within each infant. One 880 g infant exhibited isolated peripheral vasoconstriction; a 960 g infant had abdominal temperatures more than 1° C higher than peripheral temperatures. Eight smaller infants exhibited no peripheral vasoconstriction and spent most of their observations with peripheral greater than abdominal temperatures. In 8 infants, mean temperature difference was significantly higher when abdominal temperature was less than 36.5° C.ConclusionMost ELBW infants did not exhibit peripheral vasoconstriction during their first 12-hours of life, despite low temperatures. ELBW infants’ vasomotor control may be immature during this period.

description: Titan is an excellent test case for detailed studies of the scattering polarization from thick hazy atmospheres. We present the first limb polarization measurements of Titan, which are compared as a test to our limb polarization models. Previously unpublished imaging polarimetry from the HST archive is presented which resolves the disk of Titan. We determine flux-weighted averages of the limb polarization and radial limb polarization profiles, and investigate the degradation and cancelation effects in the polarization signal due to the limited spatial resolution of our observations. Taking this into account we derive corrected values for the limb polarization in Titan. The results are compared with limb polarization models, using atmosphere and haze scattering parameters from the literature. In the wavelength bands between 250 nm and 2000 nm a strong limb polarization of about 2-7 % is detected with a position angle perpendicular to the limb. The fractional polarization is highest around 1 micron. As a first approximation, the polarization seems to be equally strong along the entire limb. The detected polarization is compatible with expectations from previous polarimetric observations taken with Voyager 2, Pioneer 11, and the Huygens probe. Our results indicate that ground-based monitoring measurements of the limb-polarization of Titan could be useful for investigating local haze properties and the impact of short-term and seasonal variations of the hazy atmosphere of Titan. Planets with hazy atmospheres similar to Titan are particularly good candidates for detection with the polarimetric mode of the upcoming planet finder instrument at the VLT. Therefore, a good knowledge of the polarization properties of Titan is also important for the search and investigation of extra-solar planets.

description: Contexte : Les cas de personnes atteintes de la maladie d’Alzheimer et des démences apparentées augmentent dans notre société. Celles-ci sont le plus souvent prises en charge par des proches aidants qui de par leur rôle peuvent être également atteints dans leur santé. Objectif : L’objectif de ce travail est d’identifier les interventions infirmières individualisées et adaptées auprès des proches aidants s’occupant de personnes atteintes de maladie d’Alzheimer ou de démence apparentée. Ceci afin de soutenir les proches aidants dans leurs différentes transitions et de prévenir les impacts sur leur santé. Méthodologie : revues littéraires ayant pour sujet d’étude les proches aidants de personnes atteintes d’Alzheimer ou de démence apparentée et ayant pour étude les impacts de cette maladie sur les proches aidants. Les articles datent de moins de 15 ans, tel que proposé par les superviseurs. Les deux bases utilisées sont PubMed et CINAHL. 41 articles ont été sélectionnés après lecture du résumé puis 6 ont été retenus pour ce travail et analysés grâce à la grille Fortin. Résultats : Les proches aidants sont à risques de développer des atteintes dans leur santé surtout psychologique : dépression, anxiété, sentiment de fardeau, épuisement et isolement social. Des impacts physiques, économiques et sociaux peuvent également être retrouvés. Discussion : Les infirmiers ont un rôle propre de prévention des risques auprès du proche aidant et peuvent s’appuyer sur le cadre théorique de la transition de Meleis afin d’analyser les impacts et trouver les stratégies d’éducation thérapeutique et de soutien. Les infirmiers pourraient favoriser le lien entre les différents acteurs de la prise en charge du proche aidant et devenir plus proactifs. Le proche aidant, malgré le risque qu’il soit confronté à des impacts surtout psychologiques, peut ressentir de la satisfaction dans son rôle grâce à un sentiment de devoir.

description: We define Frobenius and monodromy operators on the de Rham cohomology of $K$-dagger spaces (rigid spaces with overconvergent structure sheaves) with strictly semistable reduction $Y$, over a complete discrete valuation ring $K$ of mixed characteristic. For this we introduce log rigid cohomology and generalize the so called Hyodo-Kato isomorphism to versions for non-proper $Y$, for non-perfect residue fields, for non-integrally defined coefficients, and for the various strata of $Y$. We apply this to define and investigate crystalline structure elements on the de Rham cohomology of Drinfel'd's symmetric space $X$ and its quotients. Our results are used in a critical way in the recent proof of the monodromy-weight conjecture for quotients of $X$ given by de Shalit.

description: La progressiva diffusione dei social network, sia generalisti (quali Twitter, Facebook o Google+, la recente piattaforma messa a punto da Google) sia specializzati (ad esempio le comunità professionali di Linkedin), ha reso disponibili una massiccia e inedita quantità di dati sulle preferenze sulle opinioni degli utenti. Questi dati, disponibili in quantità significative e in tempo reale, possono essere sia di carattere orizzontale e quindi di caratterizzazione territoriale (grazie anche alla possibilità di geo localizzazione degli smartphone, tablet e integrati nei MID (Mobile Internet Device) di ultima generazione, sia verticale (in termini anagrafici, culturali, professionali e in termini di orientamenti settoriali e capacità di spesa). La qualità e la contestualità (temporale e spaziale) di questi dati sulle tendenze degli utenti, con l’affermazione (oramai consolidata) del Web 2.0 (oggi Web 3.0), amplia la dimensione partecipativa alle scelte dell’impresa e delle istituzioni. Più che sul giacimento di idee e di opinioni disponibili in rete, imprese e istituzioni dovrebbero puntare sul valore delle comunità virtuali per modificare le proprie strategie di marketing, partendo proprio dal concetto di stakeholder, sviluppando, con il monitoraggio degli orientamenti, nuove metodologie di CRM...

description: When managing their emotions, individuals often recruit the help of others; however, most emotion regulation research has focused on self-regulation. Theories of emotion and aging suggest younger and older adults differ in the emotion regulation strategies they use when regulating their own emotions. If how individuals regulate their own emotions and the emotions of others are related, these theorised age differences may also emerge for interpersonal emotion regulation. In two studies, younger and older adults’ intrapersonal and interpersonal emotion regulation strategy choices were examined via self-report and behavioural assessments of regulating the emotions of another participant (Study 1; N = 80) and of a virtual human (Study 2; N = 100). Across both studies, younger adults reported greater intrapersonal suppression but not greater reappraisal. Younger and older adults were generally similar (supported by Bayesian analyses) for both self-reported and behavioural interpersonal emotion regulation strategies. Behavioural interpersonal emotion regulation was not related to self-reported intra- and interpersonal preferences. These results suggest interpersonal emotion regulation in ageing may show distinct patterns from theorised age differences in intrapersonal emotion regulation.
Attribution of surface ozone to NOx and volatile organic compound sources during two different high ozone events

description: Increased tropospheric ozone (O3) and high temperatures affect human health during heat waves. Here, we perform a source attribution that considers separately the formation of German surface ozone from emitted NOx and volatile organic compound (VOC) precursors during two peak ozone events that took place in 2015 and 2018 which were associated with elevated temperatures. Results showed that peak ozone concentrations can be primarily attributed to nearby emissions of anthropogenic NOx (from Germany and immediately neighboring countries) and biogenic VOC. Outside of these high ozone episodes, baseline ozone concentrations are attributed primarily to long-range transport, with ozone due to remote anthropogenic NOx emissions and methane oxidation adding to the tropospheric ozone background. We show that a significant contribution to modeled O3 coming from German NOx or VOC emissions occurs mostly in southern Germany, emphasizing that the production of ozone depends on the local interplay between NOx and VOC precursors. Shipping activities in the Baltic and North seas have a large impact on ozone predicted in coastal areas, yet a small amount of ozone from these sources can also be seen far inland, showing the importance of transported ozone on pollution levels. We have also shown that changes in circulation patterns during the peak O3 episodes observed in Germany during the 2015 and 2018 heat waves can affect the contribution of different NOx emission sources to total O3; thus, the possible influence of multiple upwind source regions should be accounted for when mitigation strategies are designed. Our study also highlights the good correlation between ozone coming from German biogenic VOC emissions and total ozone, although the diurnal variation in the ozone coming from biogenic sources is not dominated by the diurnal variation in biogenic emissions, and the peaks of ozone from biogenic sources are disconnected from local emission peaks. This suggests that the formation of O3 from local German biogenic VOC emissions is not the sole factor that influences the ozone formation, and other meteorological and chemical processes affect the diel variation of ozone with a biogenic origin. Overall, this study helps to demonstrate the importance of a source attribution method to understand the sources of O3 in Germany and can be a useful tool that will help to design effective mitigation strategies.

description: The band structure of type-I (In,Al)As/AlAs quantum dots with band gap energy exceeding 1.63 eV is indirect in momentum space, leading to long-lived exciton states with potential applications in quantum information. Optical access to these excitons is provided by mixing of the $Γ$- and X-conduction band valleys, from which control of their spin states can be gained. This access is used here for studying the exciton spin-level structure by resonant spin-flip Raman scattering, allowing us to accurately measure the anisotropic hole and isotropic electron $g$ factors. The spin-flip mechanisms for the indirect exciton and its constituents as well as the underlying optical selection rules are determined. The spin-flip intensity is a reliable measure of the strength of $Γ$-X-valley mixing, as evidenced by both experiment and theory.

description: For cohomological (resp. homological) coefficient systems ${\mathcal F}$ (resp. ${\mathcal V}$) on affine buildings $X$ with Coxeter data of type $\widetilde{A}_d$ we give for any $k\ge1$ a sufficient local criterion which implies $H^k(X,{\mathcal F})=0$ (resp. $H_k(X,{\mathcal V})=0)$. Using this criterion we prove a conjecture of de Shalit on the acyclicity of coefficient systems attached to hyperplane arrangements on the Bruhat-Tits building of the general linear group over a local field. We also generalize an acyclicity theorem of Schneider and Stuhler on coefficient systems attached to representations.
