La Mama Negra – ¿símbolo de la multiculturalidad ecuatoriana?
Creators: name: Schneider, Daniela
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 2007

description: El ensayo analiza La Mama Negra, una fiesta andina ecuatoriana de gran popularidad (que se celebra en dos fechas distintas por razones sociales). Al contrario de la exclusión diaria de los afro-ecuatorianos de la sociedad ecuatoriana, en la fiesta, las máscaras negras (negros) son valoradas positivamente por parte de los partici­pantes mestizos. La población afro-ecuatoriana tiene un estatus impor­tante en La Mama Negra (a pesar de no existir en está región en nin­guna época), desempeñando un papel extraordinario en el contexto teatral y aglutinándose estrechamente con los mitos de resistencia y liberación transmitidos y presentes en la memoria colectiva de los latacungueños. No obstante, los afro-ecuatorianos solamente son reco­nocidos como un elemento medio en el proceso de construcción de una identidad nacional mestiza glorificada.

description: The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a future gamma-ray observatory that is planned to significantly improve upon the sensitivity and precision of the current generation of Cherenkov telescopes. The observatory will consist of several dozens of telescopes with different sizes and equipped with different types of cameras. Of these, the FlashCam camera system is the first to implement a fully digital signal processing chain which allows for a traceable, configurable trigger scheme and flexible signal reconstruction. As of autumn 2016, a prototype FlashCam camera for the medium-sized telescopes of CTA nears completion. First results of the ongoing system tests demonstrate that the signal chain and the readout system surpass CTA requirements. The stability of the system is shown using long-term temperature cycling.

Expresiones controvertidas: Afrobolivianos y su cultura entre presentaciones y representaciones
Creators: name: Rossbach De Olmos, Lioba

Year: 2007

description: El artículo contrasta las representaciones del "negro” que forman parte desde hace mucho tiempo del folclor andino de Bolivia, con los conceptos que los mismos negros han articulado en los últimos años de sí mismos como afrobolivianos. Punto central de esta disputa es el tema de la "saya”, que es un ritmo, canto y estilo de baile que se inicia y surge dentro de la cultura afroboliviana pero que en un momento dado fue y es actualmente reinterpretada a la manera típica del folclor andino ganando de esta manera fama internacional. En este contexto la saya se ha convertido en un tema de negociación entre presentación y representación de los negros en un área de tensiones entre el folclor boliviano andino y el revivir de las tradiciones culturales de los afrobolivianos.

description: We report that a longitudinal epsilon-near-zero (LENZ) film leads to giant field enhancement and strong radiation emission of sources in it and that these features are superior to what found in previous studies related to isotropic ENZ. LENZ films are uniaxially anisotropic films where relative permittivity along the normal direction to the film is much smaller than unity, while the permittivity in the transverse plane of the film is not vanishing. It has been shown previously that realistic isotropic ENZ films do not provide large field enhancement due to material losses, however, we show the loss effects can be overcome using LENZ films. We also prove that in comparison to the (isotropic) ENZ case, the LENZ film field enhancement is not only remarkably larger but it also occurs for a wider range of angles of incidence. Importantly, the field enhancement near the interface of the LENZ film is almost independent of the thickness unlike for the isotropic ENZ case where extremely small thickness is required. We show that for a LENZ structure consisting of a multilayer of dysprosium-doped cadmium oxide and silicon accounting for realistic losses, field intensity enhancement of 30 is obtained which is almost 10 times larger than that obtained with realistic ENZ materials
Influence of target deformation and deuteron breakup in (d,p) transfer reactions

description: The effect of core excitations in transfer reactions of the form A(d, p)B has been found to affect significantly the calculated cross sections and to depend strongly and non-linearly on the incident deuteron energy in Faddeev/AGS calculations. Our goal is to investigate these effects within a coupled-channels formulation of the scattering problem which, in addition of being computationally less demanding than the Faddeev counterpart, may help shed some light into the physical interpretation of the cited effects. We use an extended version of the continuum-discretized coupled-channels (CDCC) method with explicit inclusion of target excitations within a coupled-channels Born approximation (CDCC-BA) formulation of the transfer transition amplitude. We compare the calculated transfer cross sections with those obtained with an analogous calculation omitting the effect of target excitation. We consider also an adiabatic coupled channels (ACC) method. Our working example is the 10 Be(d,p) 11 Be reaction. We find that both formalisms are able to reproduce the effects of deformation found in Faddeev calculations, whose origin stems from the interference of the direct one-step transfer, and the two-step transfer following target excitation.

Negertaaltje or Volkstaal: The Papiamentu Language at the Crossroads of Philology, Folklore and Anthropology

Year: 2007

description: In this article, I analyse the epistemological space from which Creole languages emerged as an object of research at the turn of the nineteenth century. Taking the example of Papiamentu, my analysis shows that Creole languages were located at the intersection of anthropology and philology, without fitting neatly into either discipline. Folklore studies, with its focus on vernacular culture, opened up a space from which Creole languages were investigated alongside European dialects as variations of their European lexifier languages.

Afro-Peruvian Representations in and around Cusco: a Discussion about the Existence or Non-existence of an Afro-Andean Culture in Peru
Creators: name: Schmidt, Bettina E.
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 2007

description: The article investigates the African heritage in the Peruvian Andes, in the colonial time as well as today, 150 years after the end of slavery in Peru. The author mainly discusses Peruvian studies as well as some other research reports conducted in Peru though the starting point is some observations in Cusco. After an overview about the literature the article criticises the general assumption that African slaves did not survived in the Andes and were therefore not brought to the Cusco area. The author argues instead that there has been African slavery in the Andes though not in great numbers because the colonial government decided to move the slaves to the coast because of economical and political reasons. The last part of the article focuses on the negritos, a popular dance in the Andes which some scholars even connect to Moorish Spain instead to African slaves in order to clear the dance from the negative stigma of slavery. The discussion of the literature about this dance leads to the debate about the image of Afro-Peruvians today.

description: We consider the possibility of gauge coupling unification within the simplest realizations of the $\mathrm{SU(3)_c \times SU(3)_L \times SU(3)_R \times U(1)_{X}}$ gauge theory. We present a first exploration of the renormalization group equations governing the "bottom-up" evolution of the gauge couplings in a generic model with free normalization for the generators. Interestingly, we find that for a $\mathrm{SU(3)_c \times SU(3)_L \times SU(3)_R \times U(1)_{X}}$ symmetry breaking scale $M_X$ as low as a few TeV one can achieve unification in the presence of leptonic octets. We briefly comment on possible grand unified theory frameworks which can embed the $\mathrm{SU(3)_c \times SU(3)_L \times SU(3)_R \times U(1)_{X}}$ model as well as possible implications, such as lepton flavour violating physics at the LHC.

Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a promising clean technology to generate power with high efficiency at different scales. Decreasing the degradation rate of SOFCs is a challenge that can be tackled by lowering the operation temperature (<650°C). However, this can adversely affect cell performance and therefore it is important to develop novel electrodes which show high performance at low operation temperatures. This paper presents a novel anode-supported tubular fuel cell consisting of NiO:YSZ (65:35 wt%) cermet with 30 vol.% graphite as the pore-former. The anode support was coated with a thin anode functional layer (20 μm) with a NiO:YSZ ratio of 65:35 wt%. The Ruddlesden-Popper cathode (Nd2NiO4+δ) microstructure was composed of nano-size (≤ 50 nm) particles infiltrated into a thin porous YSZ scaffold. The combination of using a thing dense YSZ electrolyte (6.5 μm), an active anode functional layer, and a high-performing cathode led to high performance at low temperatures. The proposed cell was analyzed both experimentally and thermodynamically at three temperatures of 500, 550, and 600°C. The simulation results indicate that a maximum power density of 0.1, 0.25, and 0.66 W/cm2 can be achieved at 500, 550, and 600°C, respectively. The simulated data show an excellent match (< 3% difference) with the experimental data. This paper includes the development of an SOFC model for detailed analysis of the variables that are difficult to measure during experiments.

Mapping Constructions of Blackness in Argentina
Creators: name: Peñaloza, Fernanda
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 2007

description: Studies on representations of blackness in the Argentine context generally argue that the consolidation of a model of national identity based on racial hierarchies resulted in a process of whitening of the population which, in turn, rendered the afro-descendants invisible in the country’s official history. This paper problematises the emphasis on invisibility and argues the need to move beyond this paradigm to a critical engagement with representations of blackness focusing on discursive operations of cultural appropriation. Thus, the first part of the paper looks at recent developments in the field in connec­tion with the question of representation and notions of cultural recuperation. The second half of the paper critically explores the treatment of blackness in Carlos Octavio Bunge’s Nuestra América (1903), which exposes how an am­bivalent and yet powerful notion of blackness was constructed as both mar­ginal and central to a not less ambiguous sense of "argentinidad”.

description: We consider a cosmological model in which the tensor mode becomes massive during inflation, and study the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature and polarization bispectra arising from the mixing between the scalar mode and the massive tensor mode during inflation. The model assumes the existence of a preferred spatial frame during inflation. The local Lorentz invariance is already broken in cosmology due to the existence of a preferred rest frame. The existence of a preferred spatial frame further breaks the remaining local SO(3) invariance and in particular gives rise to a mass in the tensor mode. At linear perturbation level, we minimize our model so that the vector mode remains non-dynamical, while the scalar mode is the same as the one in single-field slow-roll inflation. At non-linear perturbation level, this inflationary massive graviton phase leads to a sizeable scalar-scalar-tensor coupling, much greater than the scalar-scalar-scalar one, as opposed to the conventional case. This scalar-scalar-tensor interaction imprints a scale dependent feature in the CMB temperature and polarization bispectra. Very intriguingly, we find a surprizing similarity between the predicted scale dependence and the scale-dependent non-Gaussianities at low multipoles hinted in the WMAP and Planck results.

Isotropic Light vs Six-Beam Molasses for Doppler Cooling of Atoms From Background Vapor - Theoretical Comparison

description: We present a 3D theoretical comparison between the radiation-pressure forces exerted on an atom in an isotropic light cooling scheme and in a six-beam molasses. We demonstrate that, in the case of a background vapor where all the space directions of the atomic motion have to be considered, the mean cooling rate is equal in both configurations. Nevertheless, we also point out what mainly differentiates the two cooling techniques: the force component orthogonal to the atomic motion. If this transverse force is always null in the isotropic light case, it can exceed the radiation-pressure-force longitudinal component in the six-beam molasses configuration for high atomic velocities, hence reducing the velocity capture range.

description: We present a cylindrically symmetric solution, both charged and uncharged, which is known as a black string solution to the nonlinear ghost-free massive gravity found by de Rham, Gabadadze, and Tolley (dRGT). This "dRGT black string" can be thought of as a generalization of the black string solution found by Lemos \cite{1}. Moreover, the dRGT black string solution also include other classes of black string solution such as the monopole-black string ones since the graviton mass contributes to the global monopole term as well as the cosmological constant term. To investigate the solution, we compute mass, temperature, and entropy of the dRGT black string. We found that the existence of the graviton mass drastically affects the thermodynamics of the black string. Furthermore, the Hawking-Page phase transition is found to be possible for the dRGT black string as well as the charged dRGT black string. In terms of their stability, the dRGT black string solution is thermodynamically stable for $r>r_c$ with negative thermodynamical potential and positive heat capacity while it is unstable for $r

Publisher: name: Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences
Year: 2019

description: Homegarden is more diverse and provides multiple products for farm households. The objective of this study was to record and describe management practices, identifying the contribution of homegarden to household livelihood, assess the structural arrangement as well as factors affecting species diversity of the practice at Tembaro district, Southern Ethiopia. For this study, socio-economic data were collected from 120 households by using semi-structured questionnaires. Structural arrangement data were collected during the field survey. A total of 29 woody species categorized under 22 families were recorded in the homegarden agroforestry of the study area. Woody species richness and abundance were significantly higher (P < 0.05) in richer household than medium and poor once in both study kebeles. Coffee arabica, Cordial africana, Persea americana and Mangifera indica are the most frequently recorded woody species in both sites. The highest diversity indices were recorded at Debub Ambukuna than Sigezo, due to environmental and socioeconomic factors. Species composition depends on the farmer’s preference and attribute of preferred species. This study has identified three different vertical arrangements and 4-6 horizontal compartments in both study sites. The farm households have benefited with different outputs from this practice. To sustain production, farmers carried out different management practices. Each household’s members have been participating in homegarden management. However, women have been involved in more responsibilities than other members in each study sites. Managing species diversity associated with different factors, socioeconomic once are the most determinants. Institutional intervention is important on infrastructural issues in growing and diversifying economically valuable plant species in homegarden agroforestry and to improve the rural community in facility service to encourage the exchange products effectively and efficiently. Further study is needed in management practices of each component in homegarden agroforestry and improvement of production and productivity obtained from the homegarden agroforestry.

description: The free energy at zero temperature of Coulomb gas systems in generic dimension is considered as a function of a volume constraint. The transition between the 'pulled' and the 'pushed' phases is characterised as a third-order phase transition, in all dimensions and for a rather large class of isotropic potentials. This suggests that the critical behaviour of the free energy at the 'pulled-to-pushed' transition may be universal, i.e., to some extent independent of the dimension and the details of the pairwise interaction.

description: In "Quartic Coincidences and the Singular Value Decomposition" by Clifford and Lachance, Mathematics Magazine, December, 2013, it was shown that if there is a midpoint ellipse(an ellipse inscribed in a quadrilateral, $Q$, which is tangent at the midpoints of all four sides of $Q$), then $Q$ must be a parallelogram. We strengthen this result by showing that if $Q$ is not a parallelogram, then there is no ellipse inscribed in $Q$ which is tangent at the midpoint of three sides of $Q$. Second, the only quadrilaterals which have inscribed ellipses tangent at the midpoint of even two sides of $Q$ are trapezoids or what we call a midpoint diagonal quadrilateral(the intersection point of the diagonals of $Q$ coincides with the midpoint of at least one of the diagonals of $Q$).

Su traslado de la residencia de Santa Cruz de la Sierra al colegio de La Plata (o Chuquisaca) revela los intensos debates existentes en el seno de la orden ignaciana con respecto a las políticas educativas y misioneras a seguir. La presencia de un hombre de su reputación y buen temple en la ciudad de La Plata sirvió para proyectar una imagen de dedicación y compromiso entre sus cofrades. Pero dicho traslado no le satisfizo, puesto que su deseo fue siempre el de morir heroicamente en las misiones temporales del Alto Perú.

description: In this paper we present a first analysis of two location/direction markers of the Amerindian Chipaya language, which is spoken by ca 1,800 per­sons in the Bolivian Altiplano village of Santa Ana de Chipaya (Dept. Oruro). Distinctive features of the Chipaya case marking system are the directional, indi­rect complement and locative marking suffixes -kiś and -kin. Each covers all three functions. Whilst similar case marking is also found in other languages, Chipaya shows a further peculiarity. The suffix -kiś always marks closeness and always refers to the relationship between subject and complement, but the dis­tance marker -kin behaves differently. With an indirect complement it indicates that the location marked by it is distant from the subject; with a locative com­plement it is the speaker’s standpoint and not the subject that determines its usage.

Quantum mechanics (QM) and quantum field theory (QFT) are the most widely known (but, e.g., Bohmian mechanics is also a part of QT). The basic problems of QM and QFT are considered in interrelation. For QM, we stress its nonrelativistic character and the presence of spooky action at a distance. For QFT, we highlight the old problem of infinities. And this is the main point of the paper: it is meaningless to try to unify QFT so heavily suffering of infinities with GR. We also highlight difficulties of the QFT-treatment of entanglement. We compare the QFT and QM based measurement theories by presenting both theoretical and experimental viewpoints. Then we discuss two basic mathematical constraints of both QM and QFT, namely, the use of real (and, hence, complex) numbers and the Hilbert state space. We briefly present non-Archimedean and non-Hilbertian approaches to QT and their consequences. Finally, we claim that, in spite of the Bell theorem, it is still possible to treat quantum phenomena on the basis of a classical-like causal theory. We present a random field model generating the QM and QFT formalisms. This emergence viewpoint can serve as the basis for unification of novel QT (may be totally different from presently powerful QM and QFT) and general relativity GR. (It may happen that the latter would also be revolutionary modified.)

description: The effect of partial substitution of full-fatted soybean poultry meal by fish offal meal in broiler chicks was investigated. The experiment had four treatment diets: diet-1(control, without animal protein); diet-2 (local fishmeal); diet-3 (fermented fish silage); and diet-4 (local tilapia meal). Treatment diets substituted the full-fatted soybean meal in the control diet at 5% level. Unsexed 180, one day old Hubbard Classic broiler chicks were randomly allocated tothe four treatment diets. Treatments had three replications of 15 birds per pen, in a completely randomized design. The experiment has three phases and lasted for 42 days. Overall, feed intake, body weight changes (BWC) and average daily body weight gain (ADG) were significantly (p < 0.05) affected by a diet that diet-1 was lower than fish offal based diets (diets 2, 3, and 4). During the starter period, birds in diet-1 and diet-4 had lower (p<0.05) BWC and ADG than diet 2 and 3. During the finisher period, birds in diet-4 had heavier (p< 0.05) BWC and ADG than diets 1 and 3. There was significantly (p< 0.05) better feed conversion ratio during the finisher period in diet-1 and diet-4 than the rest of the treatments. During the experimental period, higher mortality (p<0.05; 11.1%) was recorded in diet-1 than other diets. Diet-1 was lower in most of the carcass parameters studied. To conclude, regardless of fish species differences, incorporation of fish offal meal into plant-sourced protein diet improves the performance of broiler chicken. In addition, the results indicated that fish silage can also be an alternative to fishmeal.

description: We consider a single magnetic impurity described by the spin--anisotropic s-d(f) exchange (Kondo) model and formulate scaling equation for the spin-anisotropic model when the density of states (DOS) of electrons is a power law function of energy (measured relative to the Fermi energy). We solve this equation containing terms up to the second order in coupling constants in terms of elliptic functions. From the obtained solution we find the phases corresponding to the infinite isotropic antiferromagnetic Heisenberg exchange, to the impurity spin decoupled from the electron environment (only for the pseudogap DOS), and to the infinite Ising exchange (only for the diverging DOS). We analyze the critical surfaces, corresponding to the finite isotropic antiferromagnetic Heisenberg exchange for the pseudogap DOS.

description: Statistical methods with empirical likelihood (EL) are appealing and effective especially in conjunction with estimating equations through which useful data information can be adaptively and flexibly incorporated. It is also known in the literature that EL approaches encounter difficulties when dealing with problems having high-dimensional model parameters and estimating equations. To overcome the challenges, we begin our study with a careful investigation on high-dimensional EL from a new scope targeting at estimating a high-dimensional sparse model parameters. We show that the new scope provides an opportunity for relaxing the stringent requirement on the dimensionality of the model parameter. Motivated by the new scope, we then propose a new penalized EL by applying two penalty functions respectively regularizing the model parameters and the associated Lagrange multipliers in the optimizations of EL. By penalizing the Lagrange multiplier to encourage its sparsity, we show that drastic dimension reduction in the number of estimating equations can be effectively achieved without compromising the validity and consistency of the resulting estimators. Most attractively, such a reduction in dimensionality of estimating equations is actually equivalent to a selection among those high-dimensional estimating equations, resulting in a highly parsimonious and effective device for high-dimensional sparse model parameters. Allowing both the dimensionalities of model parameters and estimating equations growing exponentially with the sample size, our theory demonstrates that the estimator from our new penalized EL is sparse and consistent with asymptotically normally distributed nonzero components. Numerical simulations and a real data analysis show that the proposed penalized EL works promisingly.

description: We show that the border support rank of the tensor corresponding to two-by-two matrix multiplication is seven over the complex numbers. We do this by constructing two polynomials that vanish on all complex tensors with format four-by-four-by-four and border rank at most six, but that do not vanish simultaneously on any tensor with the same support as the two-by-two matrix multiplication tensor. This extends the work of Hauenstein, Ikenmeyer, and Landsberg. We also give two proofs that the support rank of the two-by-two matrix multiplication tensor is seven over any field: one proof using a result of De Groote saying that the decomposition of this tensor is unique up to sandwiching, and another proof via the substitution method. These results answer a question asked by Cohn and Umans. Studying the border support rank of the matrix multiplication tensor is relevant for the design of matrix multiplication algorithms, because upper bounds on the border support rank of the matrix multiplication tensor lead to upper bounds on the computational complexity of matrix multiplication, via a construction of Cohn and Umans. Moreover, support rank has applications in quantum communication complexity.
La etnicidad de las cosas entre los wichís del Gran Chaco (provincia de Salta, Argentina)
Creators: name: Montani, Rodrigo
Publisher: name: INDIANA
Year: 2008

description: Las mujeres wichís tejen muchas formas textiles y modelan algunos cacharros que son distribuidos y usados en el escenario interétnico del Chaco centro-occidental. Este trabajo intenta explorar cómo esta parcela de la cultura material wichí se relaciona con la definición de categorías étnicas. Con este fin, después de asumir que los artefactos son acción social imbuida en la materia, se analiza su proceso de producción y se los clasifica en categorías morfológicas. Seguidamente, se esboza el paisaje multiétnico regional tal como es concebido por los wichís y se describen los distintos patrones de producción, circulación y uso de las categorías morfológicas a través de este paisaje. Como resultado, se sostiene que los artefactos en cuestión, además de ser instrumentos, mercancías y objetos estético, son un lenguaje que desempeña un papel en la creación, recreación y eventual confrontación de relaciones interétnicas en las que los wichís están involucrados.

description: We study the phase diagram of a one-dimensional balls-in-boxes (BIB) model that has been proposed as an effective model for the spatial-volume dynamics of (2+1)-dimensional causal dynamical triangulations (CDT). The latter is a statistical model of random geometries and a candidate for a nonperturbative formulation of quantum gravity, and it is known to have an interesting phase diagram, in particular including a phase of extended geometry with classical properties. Our results corroborate a previous analysis suggesting that a particular type of potential is needed in the BIB model in order to reproduce the droplet condensation typical of the extended phase of CDT. Since such a potential can be obtained by a minisuperspace reduction of a (2+1)-dimensional gravity theory of the Hořava-Lifshitz type, our result strengthens the link between CDT and Hořava-Lifshitz gravity.

description: La investigación concierne un vaso Moche de la colección del museo etnológico en Berlín. Se trata de un vaso polimorfo, formado por distintas figuras. La escultura del vaso es una creación muy poco común. Sin cualquier conexión en cuanto al contenido, la superficie del vaso representa una cara parecida a una máscara enorme, dos peces, la cabeza de un lobo marino, una criatura de iguana, la cabeza de una ave, un par de alas y un búho. En el presente estudio, la atención es principalmente dirigida a la cara expresivamente modelada, parecida a un humano, deformada y híbrida que domina el vaso. Las mitades asimétricas de la cara son interpretadas como la fisonomía de una doble cara: mitad de humano, mitad de animal. Esta cara, que tiene un carácter divino debido a un par de colmillos, es interpretada como la imagen de un Dios marino de Moche que tiene la capacidad de transformar su cuerpo.
