description: This study employed a quasi-experimental, post-test only, control group design to investigate the effects of pre-service education on the global understanding of elementary education majors, and the attitudes and classroom practice of selected elementary teachers. The study required the use of two samples. The first consisted of senior elementary education majors. Forty-four in the experimental group were randomly selected from four institutions which have infused global education into their required curriculum and forty-eight in the control group from institutions which require no global education. The second sample was drawn from among graduates of the same institutions who are currently teaching in grades one through six. This convenience sample was divided into an experimental group of twenty-three and a control group of thirty-one. Their global understanding was assessed using Measures of Global Understanding distributed by the Educational Testing Service. Analysis using one-tailed t-tests at.05 alpha revealed no statistically significant differences between the scores of those in the experimental and control groups. It is not clear that the infusion of global education into the pre-service curriculum has any effect on participants' global understanding, but what is apparent is that these elementary education majors know little about international affairs. The researcher also sought to determine if the global content of the undergraduate program affected graduates' attitudes toward global education and its inclusion in their teaching. A comparison of the mean scores of the experimental and control groups on a researcher-designed measure of their opinions concerning the importance of including global education in elementary classrooms revealed important differences in attitudes. Those teachers who had studied global education as undergraduates felt more positively about including it in the curriculum. However, an examination of teachers' reports of their classroom practice uncovered no such difference in the behavior of the two groups. Finally, multiple regression analysis was used to determine the strength of the relationship between teachers' global understanding and their attitudes toward, and inclusion of, global education in their own teaching. Both global education attitudes and practice are positively correlated to global understanding.

description: We study electronic structures of two-dimensional quantum dots in high magnetic fields using the density-functional theory (DFT) and the exact diagonalization (ED). With increasing magnetic field, beyond the formation of the totally spin-polarized maximum density droplet (MDD) state, the DFT gives the ground-state total angular momentum as a continuous function with well-defined plateaus. The plateaus agree well with the magic angular momenta of the ED calculation. By constructing a conditional wave function from the Kohn-Sham states we show that vortices enter the quantum dot one-by-one at the transition to the state with the adjacent magic angular momentum. Vortices are also observed outside the high-density region of the quantum dot. These findings are compared to the ED results and we report a significant agreement. We study also interpretations and limitations of the density functional approach in these calculations.

description: The discoveries of intrinsically magnetic topological materials, including semimetals with a large anomalous Hall effect and axion insulators, have directed fundamental research in solid-state materials. Topological quantum chemistry has enabled the understanding of and the search for paramagnetic topological materials. Using magnetic topological indices obtained from magnetic topological quantum chemistry (MTQC), here we perform a high-throughput search for magnetic topological materials based on first-principles calculations. We use as our starting point the Magnetic Materials Database on the Bilbao Crystallographic Server, which contains more than 549 magnetic compounds with magnetic structures deduced from neutron-scattering experiments, and identify 130 enforced semimetals (for which the band crossings are implied by symmetry eigenvalues), and topological insulators. For each compound, we perform complete electronic structure calculations, which include complete topological phase diagrams using different values of the Hubbard potential. Using a custom code to find the magnetic co-representations of all bands in all magnetic space groups, we generate data to be fed into the algorithm of MTQC to determine the topology of each magnetic material. Several of these materials display previously unknown topological phases, including symmetry-indicated magnetic semimetals, three-dimensional anomalous Hall insulators and higher-order magnetic semimetals. We analyse topological trends in the materials under varying interactions: 60 per cent of the 130 topological materials have topologies sensitive to interactions, and the others have stable topologies under varying interactions. We provide a materials database for future experimental studies and open-source code for diagnosing topologies of magnetic materials.

description: In this paper, we consider two-flavor QCD at zero temperature and finite isospin chemical potential ($μ_I$) using a model-independent analysis within chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading order. We calculate the effective potential, the chiral condensate and the pion condensate in the pion-condensed phase at both zero and nonzero pionic source. We compare our finite pionic source results for the chiral condensate and the pion condensate with recent (2+1)-flavor lattice QCD results and find that they are in excellent agreement.

description: The discrepancy between the measured value and the Standard Model prediction of the muon anomalous magnetic moment is one of the most important issues in the particle physics. It is known that introducing a mediator boson X with the $μτ$ lepton flavor violating (LFV) couplings is one good solution to explain the discrepancy, due to the $τ$ mass enhancement in the one-loop correction. In this paper, we study the signal of this model, i.e. the same-sign leptons, in the Belle II experiment, assuming the flavor-diagonal couplings are suppressed. We show that the Belle II experiment is highly sensitive to the scenario in the mediator mass range of ${\cal O}(1-10)$~GeV, using the $e^+e^- \to μ^\pmτ^\mp X \toμ^\pm μ^\pm τ^\mp τ^\mp$ process induced by the $X$.

description: We study the effects of droplet ordering in initial optical transmittance through polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) films prepared in the presence of an electrical field. The experimental data are interpreted by using a theoretical approach to light scattering in PDLC films that explicitly relates optical transmittance and the order parameters characterizing both the orientational structures inside bipolar droplets and orientational distribution of the droplets. The theory relies on the Rayleigh-Gans approximation and uses the Percus-Yevick approximation to take into account the effects due to droplet positional correlations.

description: The charge-density-wave (CDW) mechanism of the 3D quantum Hall effect has been observed recently in ZrTe$_5$ [Tang et al., Nature 569, 537 (2019)]. Different from previous cases, the CDW forms on a one-dimensional (1D) band of Landau levels, which strongly depends on the magnetic field. However, its theory is still lacking. We develop a theory for the CDW mechanism of 3D quantum Hall effect. The theory can capture the main features in the experiments. We find a magnetic field induced second-order phase transition to the CDW phase. We find that electron-phonon interactions, rather than electron-electron interactions, dominate the order parameter. We extract the electron-phonon coupling constant from the non-Ohmic I-V relation. We point out a commensurate-incommensurate CDW crossover in the experiment. More importantly, our theory explores a rare case, in which a magnetic field can induce an order-parameter phase transition in one direction but a topological phase transition in other two directions, both depend on one magnetic field.

description: The food industry has developed into a leading industry in Northeast China. However, various economic indicators have shown a significant downward trend in recent years. Through the systematic analysis of the development trend of food industry in Northeast China in the past ten years, especially in 2014, it is found that in the context of stable and smooth operation of the food industry in China, the efficiency of the main processing industries declines in the three northeastern provinces of China, there is a simultaneous decline in the share of output value of the leading industries in the output value of manufacturing sector in three provinces, the collective and individual capital withdrawal is obvious in the paid-up capital, and there is a simultaneous decline in the industrial production and sales rate and the export delivery value. The food industry in Northeast China has plunged into the dilemma of development. Finally, this article puts forward some targeted recommendations from aspects of policy making, industrial agglomeration and enterprise cultivation.

description: The content of Cu, Zn in the sediments from coastal wetlands of the Yellow River Delta was determined. The results showed that: (i) The content of Cu, Zn range was 16.70—50.40 mg/kg, 18.15—48.80 mg/kg, respectively. The mean content of Cu, Zn was 31.12 mg/kg, 36.74 mg/kg, respectively. Compared with the soil environmental background values of Shandong Province, the content of Cu was excessive, while the content of Zn was below the background. (ii) The concentrations of Cu, Zn in sediment in the coast of the Yellow River Delta were higher than in the other two areas. (iii) Vertical distribution characteristics of the concentrations of Cu, Zn were increasing with depth. The maximum content of Cu, Zn was 80—100 cm, in general, the content of Cu, Zn in the bottom sediments was higher than that in the surface sediments. The growth and decline trends of Zn in Tamarix and Suaeda areas were much the same and all higher than in the Phragmites communis area. (iv) The distribution characteristics of Cu concentration in different vegetation cover in sediment is Suaeda> Phragmites communis> Tamarix, which reflected different effects on retention of Cu in the sediments because of the different vegetation types. The highest content of Zn in the 0—20 cm sediments in Tamarix area was 44.07 mg/kg.

description: The abstract test cases generated through model based testing (MBT) need to be concretized to make them executable on the software under test (SUT). Multiple researchers proposed different solutions, e.g., by utilizing adapters for concretization of abstract test cases and generation of test scripts. In this paper, we propose our Model-Based Test scrIpt GenEration fRamework (TIGER) based on GraphWalker, an open source MBT tool. The framework is capable of generating test scripts for embedded software controlling functions of a cyber physical system such as passenger trains developed at Bombardier Transportation AB. The framework follows some defined mapping rules for the concretization of abstract test cases. We have evaluated the generated test scripts using an industrial case study in terms of fault detection. We have induced faults in the model of the SUT based on three mutation operators to generate faulty test scripts. The aim of generating faulty test scripts is to produce failed test steps and to guarantee the absence of faults in the SUT. Moreover, we have also generated the test scripts using the correct version of the model and executed it to analyse the behaviour of the generated test scripts in comparison with manually-written test scripts. The results show that the test scripts generated by GW using the proposed framework are executable, provide 100% requirements coverage and can be used to uncover faults at software-in-the-loop simulation level of sub-system testing.
A structural analysis of political exclusion in the periphery: The significance of dependency relations
Creators: name: Kukreja, Sunil K.
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Dependency/world-system theorists have argued that dependency relations and a disadvantaged status in the world-system tend to exacerbate political exclusion in non-core nations. External dependency relations among non-core nations are perceived as perpetuating disarticulated socioeconomic formations and simultaneously strengthening the exclusionary nature of the state. This research examines the nature and impact of three mechanisms of dependency relations and position in the world-system on political exclusion in peripheral nations. The three mechanisms of dependency examined are transnational penetration, debt dependence, and military dependence. The analysis proceeds by first outlining the dependency/world-system interpretation of the state in the periphery. Second, it presents a descriptive evaluation of the association between each of the three dependency relations and political exclusion. Then, using path analysis, this research empirically examines the impact of transnational penetration, debt and military dependence on political exclusion. The findings indicate that debt, military dependence, and to a lesser extent, transnational penetration contribute to political exclusion.

description: In order to reveal the distribution characteristics of water and salt in the non-irrigated saline wasteland and the growth zone of the windbreaks surrounding the plain reservoir, the groundwater and soil monitoring points were set up around the south area of Duolang Reservoir in the desert oasis. Monthly groundwater depth monitoring and soil water content and salt content fixed-point sampling for a period of 2 years were conducted. The results showed that the groundwater depth of salt wasteland in the area around the reservoir area changed slightly during the monitoring period of 2 years, and the average is 1.28 m. The soil moisture content increased with the increase of soil depth, and soil water content of 60—100 cm was larger than that of other soil layers. The salt content of the soil in the salt wasteland varied between 0.48 g/kg and 8.86 g/kg in the two years, and the total salt content of different soil decreased with the increase of soil depth. The soil salt content changed greatly in 0—40 cm soil layers, with significant salt accumulation phenomenon. The soil salt content of windbreaks was significantly lower than that of the natural ecological forest.

description: Tunneling transport measurements performed on single particles and on arrays of Fe3O4 (magnetite) nanocrystals provide strong evidence for the existence of the Verwey metal-insulator transition at the nanoscale. The resistance measurements on nanocrystal arrays show an abrupt increase of the resistance around 100 K, consistent with the Verwey transition, while the current-voltage characteristics exhibit a sharp transition from an insulator gap to a peak structure around zero bias voltage. The tunneling spectra obtained on isolated particles using a Scanning Tunneling Microscope reveal an insulator-like gap structure in the density of states below the transition temperature that gradually disappeared with increasing temperature, transforming to a small peak structure at the Fermi energy. These data provide insight into the roles played by long- and short-range charge ordering in the Verwey transition.

We show that the detailed knowledge of this tensor and its large value in single-layer GeS, GeSe, SnSe and SnS make it possible to predict the magnitude and angle of rotation of polarization of intense terahertz pulses generated in photoconductive switches and point to alternative functionalities of these devices.

We show that this is no longer true for the noncommutative version of these equations, i.e., on a noncommutative deformation R^4_θof R^4 there exist smooth solutions to the SW equations having nonzero topological charge. We introduce action functionals for the noncommutative SW equations and construct explicit regular solutions. All our solutions have finite energy. We also suggest a possible interpretation of the obtained solutions as codimension four vortex-like solitons representing D(p-4)- and anti-D(p-4)-branes in a Dp-anti-Dp brane system in type II superstring theory.

description: Agriculture is related to the strategy and security of a country. Every country is very discreet about access of foreign capitals to the agricultural field. Countries along the “Belt and Road” also have imposed restrictions on the access of foreign capitals to the agricultural field. There are restrictions on establishing agriculture-related enterprises, affiliated organizations, and branch offices. Also, there are regulations concerning the scope, proportion, performance requirement, and approval of access of foreign capitals to the agricultural field.

description: Dependency/world-system theorists have argued that dependency relations and a disadvantaged status in the world-system tend to exacerbate political exclusion in non-core nations. External dependency relations among non-core nations are perceived as perpetuating disarticulated socioeconomic formations and simultaneously strengthening the exclusionary nature of the state. This research examines the nature and impact of three mechanisms of dependency relations and position in the world-system on political exclusion in peripheral nations. The three mechanisms of dependency examined are transnational penetration, debt dependence, and military dependence. The analysis proceeds by first outlining the dependency/world-system interpretation of the state in the periphery. Second, it presents a descriptive evaluation of the association between each of the three dependency relations and political exclusion. Then, using path analysis, this research empirically examines the impact of transnational penetration, debt and military dependence on political exclusion. The findings indicate that debt, military dependence, and to a lesser extent, transnational penetration contribute to political exclusion.

description: A multinomial logit analysis was used to explain firm locational decisions in selected electrical machinery industries. Such information can be invaluable to policymakers concerned with rural development decisions. The results indicate that the probability of closure or new start increases if the establishment is a small, multi-unit operation; the probability of contraction increases if the establishment is a large, single-unit operation. The study also shows that demand conditions, local wage rates, construction costs, and the opportunity cost of capital affect the probability of establishment starts, relocations, and expansions and contractions. Business taxes are not important.

Re -parishing the countryside: Progressivism and religious interests in rural life reform, 1908-1934

description: Rural reform efforts in the early twentieth century often have been castigated for revamping the agricultural economy and community at the expense of traditional social and spiritual values. Likewise, religious reformers of this period have been accused of surrendering the church to the national enthusiasm for scientific secularism, of misplacing theology and faith in the scramble for membership and political clout. But the problem with such analysis is that it confuses unanticipated outcome with intent and fails to distinguish between changes in form and changes in substance. This dissertation examines anew the work of a tightly knit coterie of rural reformers in government, churches, and academia who were animated by strikingly similar visions of the social, economic, and religious future of the countryside. In the period following World War I, progressive reformers saw, not only postwar depression in the far economy, but also deterioration in institutions--schools, churches, social organizations of all kinds--that supported the farm community. By examining points of commonality between careers of several prominent rural reformers--among them, Kenyon Butterfield, Edmund Brunner, Warren Wilson, and Charles Galpin--the study seeks to determine how these reformers worked to develop a coherent vision for rural America, combining their religious sentiments, beliefs in the American system, and faith in scientific rationality. This project asserts that contradictions between religious values and bureaucratic goals may be more apparent in retrospect than they were at the time; that these reformers saw the tools of social science as appropriate to reinforce institutions they so valued. It will be argued that these reformers, far from losing their way in the modern wasteland, set out to solve contemporary problems in a manner fully consistent with the long tradition of American Protestant evangelical reform. It is a story of how reformers used yesterday's heresies to make those institutions more effective in society, how they manipulated traditional understandings of Christianity to meet the challenges of changing society, and ultimately, how they were unable to maintain those traditional understandings in the face of severe economic trials of the Great Depression.
Approximating three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamics system forced by space-time white noise

description: The magnetohydrodynamics system consists of the Navier-Stokes and Maxwell's equations, coupled through multiples of nonlinear terms. Such a system forced by space-time white noise has been studied by physicists for decades, and the rigorous proof of its solution theory has been recently established in Yamazaki (2019, arXiv:1910.04820 [math.AP]) using the theory of paracontrolled distributions and a technique of coupled renormalizations. When an equation is well-posed, and it is approximated by replacing the differentiation operator by reasonable discretization schemes with a parameter, it is widely believed that a solution of the approximating equation should converge to the solution of the original equation as the parameter approaches zero. We prove otherwise in the case of the three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamics system forced by space-time white noise. Specifically, it is proven that the limit of the solution to the approximating system with an additional 32 drift terms solves the original system. These 32 drift terms depend on the choice of approximations, can be calculated explicitly in the process of renormalizations, and essentially represent a spatial version of It$\hat{\mathrm{o}}$-Stratonovich correction terms. In particular, the proof relies on the technique of coupled renormalizations again, as well as taking advantage of the special structure of the magnetohydrodynamics system on many occasions.

description: We implement and test kernel averaging Non-Uniform Fast Fourier Transform (NUFFT) methods to enhance the performance of correlation and covariance estimation on asynchronously sampled event-data using the Malliavin-Mancino Fourier estimator. The methods are benchmarked for Dirichlet and Fejér Fourier basis kernels. We consider test cases formed from Geometric Brownian motions to replicate synchronous and asynchronous data for benchmarking purposes. We consider three standard averaging kernels to convolve the event-data for synchronisation via over-sampling for use with the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT): the Gaussian kernel, the Kaiser-Bessel kernel, and the exponential of semi-circle kernel. First, this allows us to demonstrate the performance of the estimator with different combinations of basis kernels and averaging kernels. Second, we investigate and compare the impact of the averaging scales explicit in each averaging kernel and its relationship between the time-scale averaging implicit in the Malliavin-Mancino estimator. Third, we demonstrate the relationship between time-scale averaging based on the number of Fourier coefficients used in the estimator to a theoretical model of the Epps effect. We briefly demonstrate the methods on Trade-and-Quote (TAQ) data from the Johannesburg Stock Exchange to make an initial visualisation of the correlation dynamics for various time-scales under market microstructure.
