Publisher: name: Music for and by children
Year: 2019

description: Num sótão empoeirado vivem as recordações de uma infância feliz e a magia das pequenas coisas. Um piano, uma trompete, uma guitarra, uma velha drabuka, uma concertina e uma bailarina que dorme profundamente na sua caixinha de música. Um dia, esta desperta e dança, numa viagem pelas estações do ano, acordando consigo a música que sempre viveu naquele sótão, naquela infância. Integrado num conceito de aprendizagem informal, este concerto pretende estabelecer uma diferença clara na abordagem a nível artístico; “concerto para bebés” e “concerto com bebés” metamorfoseiam-se de modos diferentes. Os bebés agem como parte integrante do espetáculo, assumindo o carácter de agentes ativos. Ao nível da performance em si, concebeu-se um espetáculo com forte carga sensorial e um grande cuidado visual, sempre com o intuito de que a música e os processos a desencadear na prática possam ser decifrados. Cada momento procura levar-nos a outro, numa viagem por sons, sensações e experiências contínua. Procura-se o encanto das pequenas expressões, há a sensibilidade de uma bailarina e a leveza e rapidez do vento que sopra as folhas no Outono, surgem reminiscências do cancioneiro aveirense e instrumentos improváveis, sempre com música como moto principal. Essa é interpretada ao vivo, possibilitando o contacto e a experiência acústica.

description: This paper considers opportunistic primary-secondary spectrum sharing when the primary is a rotating radar. A secondary device is allowed to transmit when its resulting interference will not exceed the radar's tolerable level, in contrast to current approaches that prohibit secondary transmissions if radar signals are detected at any time. We consider the case where an OFDMA based secondary system operates in non-contiguous cells, as might occur with a broadband hotspot service, or a cellular system that uses spectrum shared with radar to supplement its dedicated spectrum. It is shown that even fairly close to a radar, extensive secondary transmissions are possible, although with some interruptions and fluctuations as the radar rotates. For example, at 27% of the distance at which secondary transmissions will not affect the radar, on average, the achievable secondary data rates in down- and upstreams are around 100% and 63% of the one that will be achieved in dedicated spectrum, respectively. Moreover, extensive secondary transmissions are still possible even at different values of key system parameters, including cell radius, transmit power, tolerable interference level, and radar rotating period. By evaluating quality of service, it is found that spectrum shared with radar could be used efficiently for applications such as non-interactive video on demand, peer-to-peer file sharing, file transfers, automatic meter reading, and web browsing, but not for applications such as real-time transfers of small files and VoIP.
Ondas: um possível caminho para refletir sobre as experiências musicais nos territórios da educação musical
Creators: name: Alencar De Brito, Teca
Publisher: name: Music for and by children
Year: 2019

description: "Ondas" é o nome de um CD que apresenta produções musicais feitas com e por crianças e adolescentes que fazem música na Teca Oficina de Música, em São Paulo, Brasil. Inspirado nas comemorações do centenário de nascimento do importante compositor brasileiro Dorival Caymmi (1914-2008) e, por isso, contando com várias composições com temas relacionados ao mar, à vida dos pescadores, à natureza, entre outros aspectos, o título também remete aos movimentos contínuos das águas, que - a um só tempo – são semelhantes e diferentes, assim como ocorre com os eventos musicais (e humanos) que emergem em nosso espaço de trabalho. O projeto é parte de uma pesquisa contínua que foca, especialmente, 1- o dinamismo do pensamento musical revelado por meio das práticas sonoro-musicais e pelos modos singulares de lidar com os materiais, conceitos e ideias de música; 2- processos criativos envolvidos em improvisações, composições, invenções e sonorizações de histórias, elaboração de arranjos, desenvolvidos em aulas em grupos e de instrumentos musicais diversos); 3- projetos marcados pela integração entre prática e reflexão e pela ampliação do conceito de música; 4- a singularidade do pensamento musical ao longo do percurso, que nominamos como "ideias de música”; 5- a construção do “caminho ao caminhar”, combinando o cotidiano, o imaginário, o mundano, o raro, o tradicional e o novo. Esta proposta fundamenta-se em princípios pedagógico-musicais de HJ Koellreutter; (b) nas pesquisas e proposições de François Delalande; c) nas proposições da Teoria dos Sistemas Dinâmicos, segundo Esther Thelen; (c) em conceitos filosóficos de Deleuze e Guattari, (jogo ideal, menor, rizoma), e (d) no conceito de pedagogias musicais abertas, segundo a educadora musical argentina Violeta H. de Gainza. O nome do CD lembra uma das composições gravadas, desenvolvida por adolescentes. O objetivo principal desta comunicação é destacar a singularidade das ideias de música que emergem e se transformam no curso da infância, bem como, os processos criativos que podem emergir em sistemas abertos de educação musical. (com crianças e adolescentes, com idades entre 3 e 14 anos) e/ou em aulas particulares de instrumentos musicais diversos.

description: O presente estudo caracteriza o panorama coral infantil e juvenil dos concelhos do distrito de Lisboa, no ano de 2017. São objetivos do estudo: identificar os coros infantis e juvenis existentes; identificar os concelhos com maior atividade coral infantil e juvenil caracterizando os respetivos contextos; caracterizar os intervenientes de cada coro, abrangendo participantes e direção artística; descrever o repertório utilizado e as atividades desenvolvidas e verificar a importância dos coros infantis e juvenis na vida das comunidades locais e na promoção da cultura no país. A metodologia adotada assenta na pesquisa bibliográfica e documental e num trabalho de campo, com recolha e análise de dados. O processo de recolha de dados baseou-se em questionários a diversos tipos de informantes (maestros, membros das direções dos coros, direções pedagógicas das escolas, municípios, entre outros), via contacto presencial, telefónico ou correio eletrónico. Os dados recolhidos permitem retirar as seguintes conclusões: existe um total de 33 coros infantis e juvenis no distrito de Lisboa; o concelho de Lisboa apresenta o maior número de coros (30% do total); os coros estão maioritariamente ligados a associações (57% do total); um elevado número de coros surgiu a partir do ano 2005 (63% do total); a maior parte dos coralistas tem entre 6 e 12 anos de idade (66% do total); entre os coralistas predominam elementos do sexo feminino (82% do total); os cargos de direção artística são maioritariamente desempenhados por mulheres (61% do total);é utilizado repertório diversificado, incluindo obras profanas e sacras, de compositores portugueses e europeus, com acompanhamento musical e a capella. A atividade coral está associada a um crescente interesse por atividades artísticas. O retrato do panorama coral no nosso país tem sido alvo de atenção na investigação musicológica. No entanto, os trabalhos existentes restringem-se a coros e orfeões de adultos, não existindo ainda nenhum levantamento sobre as realidades musicais corais na infância e adolescência. Integrado no âmbito de um projeto de investigação no domínio do desenvolvimento vocal e da prática coral na infância, o presente trabalho é ponto de partida para o projeto de doutoramento da primeira autora.

description: We study the discrimination of weak coherent states of light with significant overlaps by nondestructive measurements on the light states through measuring atomic states that are entangled to the coherent states via dipole coupling. In this way, the problem of measuring and discriminating coherent light states is shifted to finding the appropriate atom-light interaction and atomic measurements. We show that this scheme allows us to attain a probability of error extremely close to the Helstrom bound, the ultimate quantum limit for discriminating binary quantum states, through the simple Jaynes-Cummings interaction between the field and ancilla with optimized light-atom coupling and projective measurements on the atomic states. Moreover, since the measurement is nondestructive on the light state, information that is not detected by one measurement can be extracted from the post-measurement light states through subsequent measurements.

description: We describe the angular power spectrum of unresolved 3.6 micron IR light in Spitzer GOODS fields. The amplitude of the anisotropy spectrum decreases with decreasing flux threshold to which resolved sources are removed from images. When all pixels brighter than a Vega magnitude of 24.6 are removed, the amplitude of the power spectrum at arcminute angular scales can be described with an extra component of z>8 sources with a IRB contribution around 0.4 nW m^-2 sr-1. The shape of the power spectrum, however, is more consistent with that expected for unresolved, faint galaxies at lower redshifts with Vega magnitudes fainter than 23 with a total 3.6 micron intensity between 0.1 to 0.8 nW m^-2 sr^-1. We confirm this assumption by showing that large-scale power decreases rapidly when the unresolved clustering spectrum is measured from a processed HDF-N IRAC image where locations of faint ACS sources with no IR counterparts were also masked. Based on resolved counts and unresolved fluctuations, we find that, at most, about 7.0 nW m^-2 sr^-1 can be ascribed to galaxies.

description: The temporal pseudoscalar meson correlation function in a QCD plasma is investigated in a range of temperatures exceeding $T_c$ and first time for a finite momenta which is of the experimental interest. The imaginary time formalism is employed for the finite temperature calculations. The behavior of the meson spectral function and of the temporal correlator is studied in the HTL approximation, where one replaces the free thermal quark propagators with the HTL resumed ones.

description: We study the degree of chemical enrichment in the Broad Emission Line Regions (BELRs) of two QSOs with unusually strong nitrogen emission lines. The N V 1240/ C IV 1549 intensity ratio is often used as a metallicity indicator for QSOs. The validity of this approach can be tested by studying objects in which the N IV] and N III] lines, in addition to N V, are unusually strong and easily measurable. If all of these ionization states of nitrogen point to the same metallicity, it implies that the large N V strengths observed in most QSOs are not due to some peculiarity of the N V 1240 line. This test had previously been applied to Q0353-383, a QSO long known to have extremely strong N III] and N IV] lines, with the result supporting high metallicity in that object. Here we make the same check in two other QSOs with very strong nitrogen lines, as a step towards using such QSOs to better probe the early chemical enrichment histories of their host galaxies. J1254+0241 has a metallicity of about 10x solar, with good agreement between the abundance results from different line ratios. J1546+5253 has a more moderate metallicity, about 5x solar, but the abundances determined from different line ratios show a much wider scatter than they do for J1254+0241 or Q0353-383. This QSO also has an unusual low-ionization emission line spectrum similar to some low-ionization BAL QSOs and to the unusual AGN I Zw 1. We attribute the peculiarities in its spectrum to some combination of unusual structure and/or unusual physical conditions in its BELR. Our results further affirm the validity of the N V/C IV ratio as an abundance indicator in QSOs.

description: In recent years, three-dimensional GaN-based transistors have been intensively studied for their dramatically improved output power, better gate controllability, and shorter channels for speedup and miniaturization. However, thermal analysis of such devices is often oversimplified using the conventional Fourier's law and bulk material properties in thermal simulations. In this aspect, accurate temperature predictions can be achieved by coupled phonon and electron Monte Carlo simulations that track the movement and scattering of individual phonons and electrons. However, the heavy computational load often restricts such simulations to nanoscale devices, while a real chip is of millimeter to centimeter sizes. This issue can be addressed by a hybrid simulation technique that employs the Fourier's law for regions away from the hot spot. Using this technique, accurate electrothermal simulations are carried out on a nanowire-based GaN transistor to reveal the temperature rise in such devices.

description: We study neutralino dark matter within a semi-realistic type I string model, where supersymmetry breaking arises from F-terms of moduli fields parameterised in terms of Goldstino angles, which automatically gives rise to non-universal soft third sfamily and gaugino masses. We study the fine-tuning sensitivities for dark matter and electroweak symmetry breaking across the parameter space of the type I string model, and compare the results to a similar analysis in the non-universal MSSM. Within the type I string model we find that neutralino dark matter can be naturally implemented in the $\stau$ bulk region, the $Z^0$ resonance region and the maximally tempered Bino/Wino/Higgsino region, in agreement with the results of the non-universal MSSM analysis. We also find that in the type I string model the ``well-tempered'' Bino/Wino region is less fine-tuned than in the MSSM, whereas the $\stau$ co-annihilation region exhibits a significantly higher degree of fine-tuning than in the MSSM.

description: Recent reports suggest that, during the 1990s, the EU15 overcame the US as the world largest scientific producing block. In this paper we perform a comprehensive comparative analysis of the evolution of the EU15 and US scientific output and impact throughout the 1990s looking at publications and impact trends by scientific field. Results show that changes of scientific production between the two blocks are associated with a set of scientific fields which grew or declined at a fast rate in the decade. During this period, the EU15 had eight fields of science growing above 10% in relation to the average of the world, corresponding to a 13% of the total papers published, while the US had only four fast growing fields, representing 6% of total output. The situation was exactly reverse for the decline, with the US having more than double the number of scientific fields and relative weight declining above 10% compared to the EU15. Despite this change, the US maintains a distant leadership in impact across all scientific fields. A detailed analysis of the EU15 countries shows some convergence in terms of outputs and impact, but considerable differences among countries remain. These reflect the evolution, not only of their science, technology and higher education systems, but also their integration in the international science system.

description: In braneworld gravity models with a finite AdS curvature in the extra dimension, the AdS/CFT correspondence leads to a prediction for the lifetime of astrophysical black holes that is significantly smaller than the Hubble time, for asymptotic curvatures that are consistent with current experiments. Using the recent measurements of the position, three-dimensional spatial velocity, and mass of the black hole XTE J1118+480, I calculate a lower limit on its kinematic age of 11 Myr (95% confidence). This translates into an upper limit for the asymptotic AdS curvature in the extra dimensions of 0.08 mm, which significantly improves the limit obtained by table-top experiments of sub-mm gravity.

description: The emergence of low-cost personal mobiles devices and wearable cameras and the increasing storage capacity of video-sharing websites have pushed forward a growing interest towards first-person videos. Since most of the recorded videos compose long-running streams with unedited content, they are tedious and unpleasant to watch. The fast-forward state-of-the-art methods are facing challenges of balancing the smoothness of the video and the emphasis in the relevant frames given a speed-up rate. In this work, we present a methodology capable of summarizing and stabilizing egocentric videos by extracting the semantic information from the frames. This paper also describes a dataset collection with several semantically labeled videos and introduces a new smoothness evaluation metric for egocentric videos that is used to test our method.

description: The effect of fluctuations of SCF on the baryon production in d+Au and Au+Au collisions at 200A GeV is studied in the framework of HIJING/BB v2.0 model. An increase of the string tension from kappa_0= 1 GeV/fm, to in medium mean values of 1.5 to 2.0 GeV/fm and 2.0 to 3.0 GeV/fm, for d+Au and Au+Au respectively, results in a consistent description of the observed nuclear modification factors R_dAu and R_AuAu(that relates (d)Au+Au and p+p colllisions) and point to the relevance of fluctuations of transient color fields. The differences between nuclear modification factors R_AuAu and R_CP (that relates central and peripheral collisions) are also discussed. The measurement of multi-strange (anti)hyperons (Ξ, Ω) yields would provide a crucial test of the importance of SCF fluctuations at RHIC energies.

description: Associated to any complex Wishart matrix $W$ of parameters $(dn,dm)$ and any linear map $φ:M_n(\mathbb C)\to M_n(\mathbb C)$ is the "block-modified" matrix $\tilde{W}=(id\otimesφ)W$. Following some previous work with Nechita, we study here the asymptotic $*$-distribution of $\tilde{W}$, in the $d\to\infty$ limit, in the case where the modification map $φ$ is "easy", or more generally super-easy, in the quantum algebra/representation theory sense. Under suitable assumptions on $φ$ we obtain in this way a compound free Poisson law.

description: We present deep near-infrared JHK imaging of four 10'x10' fields. The observations were carried out as part of the Multiwavelength Survey by Yale-Chile (MUSYC) with ISPI on the CTIO 4m telescope. The typical point source limiting depths are J~22.5, H~21.5, and K~21 (5sigma; Vega). The effective seeing in the final images is ~1.0". We combine these data with MUSYC UBVRIz imaging to create K-selected catalogs that are unique for their uniform size, depth, filter coverage, and image quality. We investigate the rest-frame optical colors and photometric redshifts of galaxies that are selected using common color selection techniques, including distant red galaxies (DRGs), star-forming and passive BzKs, and the rest-frame UV-selected BM, BX, and Lyman break galaxies (LBGs). These techniques are effective at isolating large samples of high redshift galaxies, but none provide complete or uniform samples across the targeted redshift ranges. The DRG and BM/BX/LBG criteria identify populations of red and blue galaxies, respectively, as they were designed to do. The star-forming BzKs have a very wide redshift distribution, a wide range of colors, and may include galaxies with very low specific star formation rates. In comparison, the passive BzKs are fewer in number, have a different distribution of K magnitudes, and have a somewhat different redshift distribution. By combining these color selection criteria, it appears possible to define a reasonably complete sample of galaxies to our flux limit over specific redshift ranges. However, the redshift dependence of both the completeness and sampled range of rest-frame colors poses an ultimate limit to the usefulness of these techniques.

description: Effective control of magnetic phases in two-dimensional magnets would constitute crucial progress in spintronics, holding great potential for future computing technologies. Here, we report a new approach of leveraging tunneling current as a tool for controlling spin states in CrI3. We reveal that a tunneling current can deterministically switch between spin-parallel and spin-antiparallel states in few-layer CrI3, depending on the polarity and amplitude of the current. We propose a mechanism involving nonequilibrium spin accumulation in the graphene electrodes in contact with the CrI3 layers. We further demonstrate tunneling current-tunable stochastic switching between multiple spin states of the CrI3 tunnel devices, which goes beyond conventional bi-stable stochastic magnetic tunnel junctions and has not been documented in two-dimensional magnets. Our findings not only address the existing knowledge gap concerning the influence of tunneling currents in controlling the magnetism in two-dimensional magnets, but also unlock possibilities for energy-efficient probabilistic and neuromorphic computing.

description: The capability to estimate the performance and cost of modern FGD systems is critical to a variety of planning and analysis requirements faced by utilities, regulators, researchers and analysts in the public and private sectors. As a result of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments, the ability of FGD systems to control emissions of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) also is of interest. The computer models described in this paper have been developed for DOE and EPRI to provide an up-to-date capability for analyzing emission control options for power plant systems. A variety of pre-combustion, combustion, and post-combustion options, utilizing several common FGD processes, are included in an integrated framework which allows the performance and cost of alternative emission control systems to be evaluated and compared systematically. A unique capability allows performance and costs to be modeled probabilistically, which allows explicit characterization of uncertainties and risks. Illustrative results showing typical performance, cost, and HAPs emissions characteristics for modem FGD systems are presented, along with examples of the use of probabilistic analysis for quantifying various types of risks.

description: My mother, Pamela, was born in London in 1933. The middle of three sisters, she was six years old when the Second World War began. With her two sisters, Ellen a year older and Barbara a year younger, she was evacuated to Cornwall when the bombing raids began.The story of my mum's experience illustrates that it was a random lottery which determined into which home an evacuated child was placed.Ellen and Barbara were allocated together to one home and mum to another. Mum believed the reason was that no-one was able to take in all three and it was thought it was best for the youngest sister to be with the eldest.So, at the tender age of six, mum found herself parted, not only from her parents, far away in London, but also from her sisters, who were on the other side of the village and whom she consequently saw only at school.This would have been hard enough for a small, somewhat timid child to cope with but, even worse, whilst her sisters fell on their feet, with a kind, motherly host, mum was sent to stay with an elderly, single lady, who was something of a termagant. My aunts always spoke of their days in Cornwall with fondness, whilst my mum's memories were not at all happy ones.An example was that one day her host had baked an apple and blackberry pie. Very nice it was, too, mum said, with lots of delicious fruit and juice. The following day, however, the old lady shouted at her and called her a 'greedy little girl'. Mum did not understand what she was supposed to have done, until she was shown the pie dish, which was now dry and devoid of juice. At six years old, mum couldn't explain what had happened - she knew only that she had not touched the pie. On mature reflection, she could only suppose that the juice had evaporated naturally, but the old lady did not seem to have considered that as a possibility.The injustice of the accusation that she was greedy and had 'stolen' the juice from the pie dish was distressing and she related this story, and others of a similar nature, to me many times.An already shy child, the evacuation experience had a profoundly adverse effect on her. She suffered lifelong mental health issues: maybe this would have been the case anyway, but it's likely that her experience was at least a contributing factor.I am sure that, as mum herself often acknowledged, everyone believed they were doing their best. It was undoubtedly a big sacrifice on the part of the hosts to take the little evacuees into their homes and provide them with a refuge whilst the worst stages of the war unfolded.And, for many children, like my aunts, it was a positive chapter in their lives, but mum's personal experience illustrates that this was not always the case and, although she emerged from the war physically unharmed, she carried the psychological scars for the rest of her life.

Year: 2019

description: A partir das reflexões desencadeadas no processo de construção do workshop para a Conferência Internacional Music for and by Children, apresentamos o presente ensaio. Nosso objetivo é o de evidenciar e dialogar sobre a importância da música tradicional da infância no ensino de música da escola básica, bem como os desdobramentos metodológicos possíveis e que se desenham nesses processos. Apresentamos a música tradicional da infância e sua compreensão acerca da música da criança, da música da cultura infantil e suas características. Ao dialogarmos sobre as possibilidades metodológicas da cultura tradicional da infância, trazemos aspectos musicais de repertórios que se perpetuam nas memórias das sociedades, carregadas de sentido estético e marcadas pelas histórias vividas. Uma prática pedagógica musical que valorize a diversidade cultural brasileira e que promova ações de apreciação das manifestações populares, experiências sonoras e releituras dessas matrizes musicais. A educação musical das crianças – como campo de experiências sonoras, espaço de criação artística e lugar de desenvolvimento do acervo sonoro – deve se relacionar com a música popular, das comunidades, dos salões, das salas de concerto, das ruas. Enfim, compartilhar a música do mundo, da atemporalidade da produção musical e das obras como patrimônio da humanidade, que deve ser aprendida e ensinada na escola.

description: My grandad is, in part, the inspiration for my academic career. Reginald Anderson joined up in 1935 and saw the transition of his regiment, the 5th Royal Inniskilling Dragoon Guards (the "Skins"), from cavalry to mechanised. He was born in Staffordshire, his father was Scottish, and his family were all miners in the Black Country collieries. They lived in abject poverty. The Army was his only means of escape. After the relative quiet of the Phoney War, his unit had to retreat through Belgium to be evacuated from Dunkirk. The horrors of his experiences during this action haunted him throughout his life. As a boy, I was ignorant as to the impact of war trauma. But my grandad exhibited the classic symptoms of PTSD as we understand them now - especially vivid night terrors. He never really spoke about what he had witnessed, but he bore the physical (shrapnel wounds) and emotional scars. He was medically discharged from the Army in 1943 with "ulcers" - I believe a euphemism for psychological injury. He worked for the remainder of the war in the brickworks and then on the railway. All through my childhood he, and by association my Nan, suffered from the undiagnosed and untreated repercussions of chronic PTSD. I remember staying at their house and hearing him crying out in the night. As a child he regaled stories of France and Belgium and taught me a bit of his own pidgin French. His only story about Dunkirk was that his brother (RAMC) was literally a stones throw away from him on the beach and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive! My Grandad died when I was 21 - I never got to really explore his history! I went on to train as a mental health social worker and I am now a Professor of Public Services Research specialising in the impact of military service. I certainly would not be doing what I do now, if it were not for his influence and the treatable psychological struggles that he needlessly endured.

description: We have surveyed leptonic and grand unified models of neutrino masses and mixings in the literature which are still viable and give numerical predictions for the reactor angle, $θ_{13}$. The results are of considerable interest in anticipation of the next generation reactor experiments and the possible future need for neutrino factories. Of the 63 models considered which were published or posted on the Archive before June 2006, half predict values of $\sin^2 2θ_{13} \gsim 0.015$, which should yield positive signals for $\barν_e$ disappearance in the reactor experiments planned for the near future. Depending upon the outcome of those experiments, half of the models can be eliminated on the basis of the presence or absence of such an observed $\barν_e$ disappearance signal.

description: The practice of having PhDs employed by the university that trained them, commonly called "academic inbreeding" has long been assumed to have a damaging effect on scholarly practices and achievement. Despite this perception, existing work on academic inbreeding is scarce and mostly descriptive or speculative. In this research we show, first, that academic inbreeding can be damaging to scholarly output. Our estimates suggest that academically inbred faculty generate on average 15% less peer reviewed publications than their non-inbred counterparts. Second, academically inbred faculty are more centered in their own institution and less open to the rest of the scientific world. In particular, we estimate that they are about 40% less likely to exchange information of critical relevance to their scholarly work with external colleagues. Third, academic inbreeding appears to be detrimental to scientific output even in leading research universities. Overall, our analysis implies that administrators and policy makers aiming to develop a thriving research environment in universities should seriously consider mechanisms to limit this practice. It also explores the role, importance and mechanisms by which outsiders contribute to create a dynamic and creative environment in knowledge intensive settings.
