Additional material.
California, San Bernardino Co. • ♂; San Bernardino Mountains, Hwy 38, crossing of tributary of East Fork Mountain Home Creek, 34.12, - 116.98; 9 September 2023; coll. M. Hedin; MCH 23_048; SDSU_G 4110.
Variation.
We have not seen type specimens of W. gertschi, but descriptions and illustrations of the holotype male (Roth 1981) mostly match characters seen in the San Bernardino Mtns male specimen, including the globular conductor and robustness of the dorsal tegular process. The San Bernardino Mtns male embolus appears less sinuate than holotype illustrations (Roth 1981: figs 4, 5).
Comments.
Previously known only from the type locality in the San Gabriel Mountains of southern California (Mt. Baldy, Manker Flats Campground; Roth 1981). Our new records from the San Bernardino Mountains extend the distribution of this species eastward in the Los Angeles Basin. We conservatively treat these populations as conspecific until additional collections can be made. We also urge additional collecting at high elevations in neighboring mountain ranges (e. g., San Jacinto Mountains, Santa Rosa Mountains) to perhaps uncover additional records of this rare genus.

Non-conditioned generation of Schroedinger cat states in a cavity

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We investigate the dynamics of a two-level atom in a cavity filled with a nonlinear medium. We show that the atom-field detuning $δ$ and the nonlinear parameter $χ^{(3)}$ may be combined to yield a periodic dynamics and allowing the generation of almost exact superpositions of coherent states ({\sl Schrödinger} cats). By analysing the atomic inversion and the field purity, we verify that any initial atom-field state is recovered at each revival time, and that a coherent field interacting with an excited atom evolves to a superposition of coherent states at each collapse time. We show that a mixed field state (statistical mixture of two coherent states) evolves towards a pure field state ({\sl Schrödinger} cat) as well. We discuss the validity of those results by using the field fidelity and the {\sl Wigner} function.

description: This work introduces a novel modified Replicator Dynamics model, which includes external influences on the population. This framework models a realistic market into which companies, the external dynamic influences, invest resources in order to bolster their product's standing and increase their market share. The dynamic influences change in each time step of the game, and directly modify the payoff matrix of the population's interactions. The model can learn from real data how each influence affects the market, and can be used to simulate and predict the outcome of a real system. We specifically analyze how a new technology can compete and attempt to unseat an entrenched technology as the market leader. We establish a relationship between the external influences and the population payoff matrix and show how the system can be implemented to predict outcomes in a real market by simulating the rise of the Android mobile operating system over its primary competition, the iPhone, from 2009 to 2017.

description: There is a growing interest of using the intrinsic alignment (IA) of galaxy images as a tool to extract cosmological information complimentary to galaxy clustering analysis. Recently, Okumura & Taruya derived useful formulas for the intrinsic ellipticity--ellipticity correlation, the gravitational shear--intrinsic ellipticity correlation, and the velocity--intrinsic ellipticity correlation functions based on the linear alignment (LA) model. In this paper, using large-volume $N$-body simulations, we measure these alignment statistics in real and redshift space and compare them to the LA and nonlinear alignment model predictions. We find that anisotropic features of baryon acoustic oscillations in the IA statistics can be accurately predicted by our models. The anisotropy due to redshift-space distortions (RSDs) is also well described in the large-scale limit. Our results indicate that one can extract the cosmological information encoded in the IA through the Alcock-Paczynski and RSD effects.

description: Die Anzahl an Quereinsteiger:innen in dem Berufsstand Lehrkraft steigt stetig weiter. Mit diesem Anstieg hat auch die Kritik an ihrer Qualifikation und Kompetenz zugenommen. Es existieren bislang nur wenige Untersuchungen zu Quereinsteiger:innen sowie eine ausgeprägte Forschungslücke bezüglich Verzerrungsblindheit bei dieser Gruppe. Diese Untersuchung basiert grundlegend auf der Studie von Liaghat (2022), in der Verzerrungsblindheit bei Lehramtsstudierenden anhand von Fallvignetten untersucht und nachgewiesen wurde. Ziel dieser Studie ist es, der Frage nachzugehen, ob sich Quereinsteiger:innen und reguläre Lehrkräfte hinsichtlich des Ausmaßes an Verzerrungsblindheit unterscheiden und auch, ob Quereinsteiger als mehr durch Verzerrungsblindheit beeinflusst eingeschätzt werden. Für diese Masterarbeit wird, basierend auf einer Poweranalyse für eine ANOVA eine Stichprobengröße von 90 benötigt, versucht werden 150 Proband:innen zu rekrutieren. Die Proband:innen sollen aktive Lehrkräfte, Quer- oder Seiteneinsteiger:innen sein. Die Proband:innen sollen im Rahmen dieser Studie einen Online-Fragebogen selbstständig an einem digitalen Gerät ausfüllen. Der Fragebogen dauert ungefähr 15-20 Minuten. Im Hauptteil des Experiments werden den Proband:innen randomisierte Fallvignetten präsentiert, zu denen sie auf einer 7-stufigen Likert-Skala angeben müssen, inwieweit sie glauben, dass eine Person (Quereinsteiger:in, Lehrkraft oder die eigene Person) von dem dargestellten kognitiven Urteilsfehler beeinflusst wird.

How to survive a zombie apocalypse : using popular culture in youth transitional courses
Creators: name: Bazell, Christina
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: This paper examines how popular culture can been used to increase student engagement with transitional curriculum used by Career Practitioners and in home economics and career and life management programs. Popular culture is defined as a set of dynamic representations of everyday life that is accepted by a collective social group and public domain ((Browne, 1994; Delaney, 2007; Gilman, 2015; O’Brien & Szenan, 2004). The intention of this paper is to explore the use of popular culture in transition education as a way for students to engage with the challenging subject matter of career planning and independent living. It includes a literature review on the use of popular culture in education and a handbook for teachers, which is a compilation of teaching activities and resources for teachers that utilize popular culture references including the zombie apocalypse, as seen in The Walking Dead.

Homoclinic dynamics in a spatial restricted four body problem blue skies into Smale horseshoes for vertical Lyapunov families

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Dynamical Systems (math.DS)

description: The set of transverse homoclinic intersections for a saddle-focus equilibrium in the planar equilateral restricted four-body problem admit certain simple homoclinic orbits which form the skeleton of the complete homoclinic intersection -- or homoclinic web. In the present work, the planar restricted four-body problem is viewed as an invariant subsystem of the spatial problem, and the influence of this planar homoclinic skeleton on the spatial dynamics is studied from a numerical point of view. Starting from the vertical Lyapunov families emanating from saddle focus equilibria, we compute the stable/unstable manifolds of these spatial periodic orbits and look for intersections between these manifolds near the fundamental planar homoclinics. In this way, we are able to continue all of the basic planar homoclinic motions into the spatial problem as homoclinics for appropriate vertical Lyapunov orbits which, by the Smale Tangle theorem, suggest the existence of chaotic motions in the spatial problem. While the saddle-focus equilibrium solutions in the planar problems occur only at a discrete set of energy levels, the cycle-to-cycle homoclinics in the spatial problem are robust with respect to small changes in energy.

description: Federal agencies that are charged with giving dietary advice to consumers—the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services— recommend that consumers keep their intake of trans fatty acids as low as possible. To that end, Federal regulations now require food labels to say how many grams of trans fats are in each serving. In this report, we examine recent changes in the trans fats content of new food products and the use of “no trans fats” package claims. We fi nd a marked decline in the trans fats content of new food products from 2005 to 2010, along with an increase in the use of “no trans fats” claims on product packages. We also fi nd that only a small minority of foods that contain no trans fats make such claims even though the use of a “no trans fats” claim is associated with higher rates of successful market penetration in a majority of product categories. In addition, new products without trans fats generally contain less saturated fat, sodium, and calories, which suggests that the reduction of trans fats was not compensated by increases in these other nutrients.

description: The aim of the present thesis was the study of Speaking Motivation in German as a foreign language. A qualitative action research was conducted with the aid of the diary as a research tool, where the significance of students' self-confidence and motivation for oral speech was identified. Furthermore, the extent of the necessity of both vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation in the German lesson became evident. Organized courses followed towards the direction of improving on the one hand the student's oral speech and on the other hand the educational process. The results of the survey were then analyzed and interpreted with the use of the diary in combination with two interviews.

description: Search and detection of objects on the ocean surface is a challenging task due to the complexity of the drift dynamics and lack of known optimal solutions for the path of the search agents. This challenge was highlighted by the unsuccessful search for Malaysian Flight 370 (MH370) which disappeared on March 8, 2014. In this paper, we propose an improvement of a search algorithm rooted in the ergodic theory of dynamical systems which can accommodate complex geometries and uncertainties of the drifting search areas on the ocean surface. We illustrate the effectiveness of this algorithm in a computational replication of the conducted search for MH370. In comparison to conventional search methods, the proposed algorithm leads to an order of magnitude improvement in success rate over the time period of the actual search operation. Simulations of the proposed search control also indicate that the initial success rate of finding debris increases in the event of delayed search commencement. This is due to the existence of convergence zones in the search area which leads to local aggregation of debris in those zones and hence reduction of the effective size of the area to be searched.

Defending Continuous Variable Teleportation: Why a laser is a clock, not a quantum channel
Creators: name: Wiseman, Howard M.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: It has been argued [T. Rudolph and B.C. Sanders, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 87}, 077903 (2001)] that continuous-variable quantum teleportation at optical frequencies has not been achieved because the source used (a laser) was not `truly coherent'. Van Enk, and Fuchs [Phys. Rev. Lett, {\bf 88}, 027902 (2002)], while arguing against Rudolph and Sanders, also accept that an `absolute phase' is achievable, even if it has not been achieved yet. I will argue to the contrary that `true coherence' or `absolute phase' is always illusory, as the concept of absolute time (at least for frequencies beyond direct human experience) is meaningless. All we can ever do is to use an agreed time standard. In this context, a laser beam is fundamentally as good a `clock' as any other. I explain in detail why this claim is true, and defend my argument against various objections. In the process I discuss super-selection rules, quantum channels, and the ultimate limits to the performance of a laser as a clock. For this last topic I use some earlier work by myself [Phys. Rev. A {\bf 60}, 4083 (1999)] and Berry and myself [Phys. Rev. A {\bf 65}, 043803 (2002)] to show that a Heisenberg-limited laser with a mean photon number $μ$ can synchronize $M$ independent clocks each with a mean-square error of $\sqrt{M}/4μ$ radians$^2$.

description: Η παρούσα εργασία πραγματεύεται την εφαρμογή των διάφορων μορφών συνεργατικής μάθησης στο σχολείο και τη συμβολή τoυς στην εκπαίδευση μαθητών/τριών με διαφορετικό πολιτισμικό και γλωσσικό υπόβαθρο. Μέσω της χρήσης συνεργατικών μορφών διδασκαλίας και μάθησης, οι εκπαιδευτικοί, και ιδιαίτερα εκείνοι/ες της πρωτοβάθμιας εκπαίδευσης, που έχουν μεγαλύτερο περιθώριο ευελιξίας στη χρήση τους λόγω της δομής του ελληνικού εκπαιδευτικού συστήματος, έχουν τη δυνατότητα να προάγουν και να καλλιεργούν τον σεβασμό προς τον άλλον, την αλληλοκατανόηση και τον ουσιαστικό διάλογο μεταξύ μαθητών/τριών διαφορετικών εθνικοτήτων, αλλά και της ίδιας εθνικότητας. Σκοπός της εργασίας είναι να διερευνηθεί και να αναδειχθεί η σημασία της συνεργατικής διδασκαλίας/μάθησης στην ένταξη των αλλοδαπών μαθητών/τριών σε ένα σύγχρονο πολυπολιτισμικό σχολείο στην Ελλάδα. Η εργασία αποτελείται από δύο μέρη: Στο πρώτο μέρος (θεωρητικό) επιχειρείται μια θεωρητική προσέγγιση σχετικά με τις έννοιες της διαπολιτισμικότητας, της διαπολιτισμικής εκπαίδευσης και των συνεργατικών μορφών διδασκαλίας και μάθησης. Στο δεύτερο μέρος (εμπειρικό) διερευνάται το εν λόγω αντικείμενο εμπειρικά, ακολουθώντας το ποσοτικό παράδειγμα στην εκπαιδευτική έρευνα και έχοντας ως μεθοδολογικό εργαλείο το γραπτό ερωτηματολόγιο και δείγμα 83 εκπαιδευτικούς από τη δημόσια πρωτοβάθμια εκπαίδευση, οι οποίοι/ες υπηρετούν σε σχολεία του Νομού Καρδίτσας.
description: This thesis concerns the contribution of collaborative learning to the cultivation of interculturalism in the classroom. Through the use of collaborative forms of teaching and learning, primary school teachers are able to convey respect for foreign students, mutual understanding and meaningful dialogue between students of different nationalities. The purpose of this paper is to research and highlight the importance of collaborative teaching and learning in the integration of foreign students in a modern multicultural school in Greece. At a first level, a theoretical approach to interculturalism, intercultural education and collaborative teaching was researched both in a general context and in the wider social context of Greece. This was followed by the empirical part with a quantitative research and a sample of 83 primary education teachers. The data collection tool was the written questionnaire, which was distributed to primary school teachers in the public sector.
Neutrino masses and the number of neutrino species from WMAP and 2dFGRS

description: We have performed a thorough analysis of the constraints which can be put on neutrino parameters from cosmological observations, most notably those from the WMAP satellite and the 2dF galaxy survey. For this data we find an upper limit on the sum of active neutrino mass eigenstates of \sum m_nu < 1.0 eV (95% conf.), but this limit is dependent on priors. We find that the WMAP and 2dF data alone cannot rule out the evidence from neutrinoless double beta decay reported by the Heidelberg-Moscow experiment. In terms of the relativistic energy density in neutrinos or other weakly interacting species we find, in units of the equivalent number of neutrino species, N_nu, that N_nu = 4.0+3.0-2.1 (95% conf.). When BBN constraints are added, the bound on N_νis 2.6+0.4-0.3 (95% conf.), suggesting that N_nu could possibly be lower than the standard model value of 3. This can for instance be the case in models with very low reheating temperature and incomplete neutrino thermalization. Conversely, if N_nu is fixed to 3 then the data from WMAP and 2dFGRS predicts that 0.2458 < Y_P < 0.2471, which is significantly higher than the observationally measured value. The limit on relativistic energy density changes when a small $ν_e$ chemical potential is present during BBN. In this case the upper bound on N_nu from WMAP, 2dFGRS and BBN is N_nu < 6.5. Finally, we find that a non-zero \sum m_nu can be compensated by an increase in N_nu. One result of this is that the LSND result is not yet ruled out by cosmological observations.

description: Because farm real estate represents much of the value of U.S. farm sector assets, large swings in farmland values can affect the fi nancial well-being of agricultural producers. This report examines both macroeconomic (interest rates, prices of alternative investments) and parcel-specifi c (soil quality, government payments, proximity to urban areas) factors that affect farmland values. In the last few years, U.S. farmland values have been supported by strong farm earnings, which have helped the farm sector in many regions to withstand the residential housing downturn. Historically low interest rates are likely a signifi cant contributor to farming’s current ability to support higher land values. About 40 percent of U.S. farmland has been rented over the last 25 years. Non-operators (landowners who do not themselves farm) owned 29 percent of land in farms in 2007, though that proportion has declined since 1992.

description: We utilize two-photon high-precision microwave spectroscopy of $ng\rightarrow(n+2)g$ transitions to precisely measure the high-angular-momentum $g$-series quantum defect of $^{85}$Rb. Samples of cold Rydberg atoms in the $ng$ state are prepared via a three-photon optical excitation combined with controlled electric-field mixing and probed with 40-$μ$s-long microwave interaction pulses. The leading systematic uncertainty arises from DC Stark shifts, which is addressed by a cancellation of background electric fields in all three dimensions. From our measurements and an analysis of systematic uncertainties from DC and AC Stark shifts, van der Waals interactions, and microwave frequency calibration, we obtain $δ_0=0.0039990(21)$ and $δ_2=-0.0202(21)$. We discuss our results in context with recent work elsewhere, as well as applications towards precision measurement.

description: Meeting growing global demand for food, fiber, and biofuel requires robust investment in agricultural research and development (R&D) from both public and private sectors. This report highlights the major findings of a study examining global R&D spending by private industry in seven agricultural input sectors, food manufacturing, and biofuel and describes the changing structure of these industries. For the full report, see Research Investments and Market Structure in the Food Processing, Agricultural Input, and Biofuel Industries Worldwide, ERR-130. In 2007 (the latest year for which comprehensive estimates are available), the private sector spent $19.7 billion on food and agricultural research (56 percent in food manufacturing and 44 percent in agricultural input sectors) and accounted for about half of total public and private spending on food and agricultural R&D in high-income countries. In R&D related to biofuel, annual private-sector investments are estimated to have reached $1.47 billion worldwide by 2009. Incentives to invest in R&D are influenced by market structure and other factors. Agricultural input industries have undergone significant structural change over the past two decades, with industry concentration on the rise. A relatively small number of large, multinational firms with global R&D and marketing networks account for most R&D in each input industry. Rising market concentration has not generally been associated with increased R&D investment as a percentage of industry sales.

description: We demonstrate a combination of optical and electronic feedback that significantly narrows the linewidth of distributed Bragg reflector lasers (DBRs). We use optical feedback from a long external fiber path to reduce the high-frequency noise of the laser. An electro-optic modulator placed inside the optical feedback path allows us to apply electronic feedback to the laser frequency with very large bandwidth, enabling robust and stable locking to a reference cavity that suppresses low-frequency components of laser noise. The combination of optical and electronic feedback allows us to significantly lower the frequency noise power spectral density of the laser across all frequencies and narrow its linewidth from a free-running value of 1.1 MHz to a stabilized value of 1.9 kHz, limited by the detection system resolution. This approach enables the construction of robust lasers with sub-kHz linewidth based on DBRs across a broad range of wavelengths.

Thermodynamics of Shearing Massless Scalar Field Spacetimes is Inconsistent With the Weyl Curvature Hypothesis

description: Our Universe has an arrow of time. In accordance with the second law of thermodynamics, entropy has been increasing ever since the Big Bang. The fact that matter is in thermal equilibrium in the very early Universe, as indicated by the cosmic microwave background, has led to the idea that gravitational entropy must be very low in the beginning. Penrose proposed that gravitational entropy can be quantified by the Weyl curvature, which increases as structures formed. A concrete realization of such a measure is the Clifton-Ellis-Tavakol gravitational entropy, which has been shown to be increasing in quite a number of cosmological models. In this work, we show a counter-example involving a class of inhomogeneous universes that are supported by a chameleon massless scalar field and exhibit anisotropic spacetime shearing effects. In fact, in our model the Clifton-Ellis-Tavakol gravitational entropy is increasing although the magnitude of the Weyl curvature is decreasing; this is due to the growth of the spacetime shear. The topology and the values of the three free parameters of the model are constrained by imposing a positive energy density for the cosmic fluid, and the thermodynamical requirements which follow from the cosmological holographic principle and the second law. It is shown that a negative deceleration parameter and a time decreasing Weyl curvature automatically follow from those conditions. Thus, we argue that our model can account for the formation of some primordial structures, like the Large Quasar Groups, which has required a non-standard evolution of the spatial anisotropies.
