Upgrading the GRAVITY fringe tracker for GRAVITY+: Tracking the white light fringe in the non-observable Optical Path Length state-space

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Aims. As part of the ongoing GRAVITY+ upgrade of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer infrastructure, we aim to improve the performance of the GRAVITY Fringe-Tracker, and to enable its use by other instruments. Methods. We modify the group delay controller to consistently maintain tracking in the white light fringe, characterised by a minimum group delay. Additionally, we introduce a novel approach in which fringe-tracking is performed in the non-observable Optical Path Length state-space, using a covariance-weighted Kalman filter and an auto-regressive model of the disturbance. We outline this new state-space representation, and the formalism we use to propagate the state-vector and generate the control signal. While our approach is presented specifically in the context of GRAVITY/GRAVITY+, it can easily be adapted to other instruments or interferometric facilities. Results. We successfully demonstrate phase delay tracking within a single fringe, with any spurious phase jumps detected and corrected in less than 100 ms. We also report a significant performance improvement, as evidenced by a reduction of about 30 to 40% in phase residuals, and a much better behaviour under sub-optimal atmospheric conditions. Compared to what was observed in 2019, the median residuals have decreased from 150 nm to 100 nm on the Auxiliary Telescopes and from 250 nm to 150 nm on the Unit Telescopes. Conclusions. The improved phase-delay tracking combined with whit light fringe tracking means that from now-on, the GRAVITY Fringe-Tracker can be used by other instruments operating in different wavebands. The only limitation remains the need for an optical path dispersion adjustment.
Language and Dis-Citizenship in Canada

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract Language policy generally is framed in terms of rational choice, but this ignores the interplay of material and symbolic resources and the role of ideologies of language, culture, class, and nation in organizing the social and the moral order. Using examples from Canada, this article shows how dis-citizenship is a matter of struggle over access to resources, framed within the dominant ideologies of language and culture connected to the workings of the nation-state.

Instruction and Evaluation of English-speaking Skills : A Case Study of a Japanese High School

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The study aims to elucidate the significance of and challenges regarding the collection and evaluation of recorded speech data from English learners at schools in Japan. The study examines recorded responses from approximately 60 Japanese high school students who underwent English-speaking training for six months to determine the effectiveness of instruction. Through an in-depth examination of the subjective and objective evaluation data for the recorded responses, the study clarifies the following points. (1) The reliability of the English-speaking evaluation tends to be questionable with a significant criticism that cautions against introducing such an evaluation especially in high-stake examinations. However, achievement evaluation is carried out in conjunction with instruction given at schools. Thus, subjective evaluation by teachers can accurately capture the actual state of learners’ speech based on the responses. (2) In the context of achievement evaluation, although the reliability of the subjective evaluation of teachers involved in the implementation of instruction planning tends to be relatively high, a certain level of evaluator training is required if the number of evaluators is decreased to reduce the workload. Additionally, although objective evaluation based on the transcription of the students’ recorded responses provides a significant amount of information, the workload is enormous. Therefore, given the proficiency level (i.e., low to intermediate) of the participants, using the number of words that are highly correlated with the number of idea units, which clearly indicates the degree of adequateness in speech content.

The effect of advertising rates or prices on customer decisions on Radio Montini is not necessarily the only factor that influences customer decisions, but there are also other factors that could not be examined. Based on the results of this study, it is known that advertising rates or prices have a very strong influence on customer decisions at Radio Montini.
An Efficient Genome Fragment Assembling Using GA with Neighborhood Aware Fitness Function

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

To decode a long genome sequence, shotgun sequencing is the state-of-the-art technique. It needs to properly sequence a very large number, sometimes as large as millions, of short partially readable strings (fragments). Arranging those fragments in correct sequence is known as fragment assembling, which is an NP-problem. Presently used methods require enormous computational cost. In this work, we have shown how our modified genetic algorithm (GA) could solve this problem efficiently. In the proposed GA, the length of the chromosome, which represents the volume of the search space, is reduced with advancing generations, and thereby improves search efficiency. We also introduced a greedy mutation, by swapping nearby fragments using some heuristics, to improve the fitness of chromosomes. We compared results with Parsons’ algorithm which is based on GA too. We used fragments with partial reads on both sides, mimicking fragments in real genome assembling process. In Parsons’ work base-pair array of the whole fragment is known. Even then, we could obtain much better results, and we succeeded in restructuring contigs covering 100% of the genome sequences.
[Clinical significance of EEG foci in partial epilepsy of children].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

This paper reports 7 cases of epileptic children with characteristic EEG foci. The features are as follows: 1) the spikes or sharp waves almost always appear in sleep recordings with a repetitive and stereotypical pattern; 2) EEG foci are often in the central-temporal area; and 3) foci disappear after awakening. Clinical seizures of a partial nature often occurred during sleep, sometimes with secondary generation. The outcome is relatively benign. Multiple and especially large doses of antiepileptic drugs should be avoided.

Introduction: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory condition characterized by acute episodes of colonic inflammation.Its pathogenesis is associated with decreased antioxidant capability.Royal Jelly (RJ) is usually used as a complementary therapy in various diseases because of its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. Aim of the work:To evaluate the protective effect of RJ against acetic acid-induced UC in adult male albino rats.Materials and Methods: Thirty rats were divided equally into 3 groups.Group I was the control group.Group II included rats subjected to intracolonic acetic acid (AA) for induction of UC.Group III 10 rats treated with RJ (250 mg/kg/day orally) for 7 days, thereafter subjected to AA. RJ was administered for another 14 days.Rats were sacrificed after 21 days.Serum glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were assessed.Colonic sections were subjected to H&E, Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS), toluidine blue, Mallory's trichrome stains and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) immunohistochemical stain.Results: Group II showed significant decrease in GSH, significant increase in MDA and marked histological alterations in colon.There was a significant decrease in the number of goblet cells, but significant increases in the number of mast cells, area% of collagen fibers and COX-2 immunoexpression compared to the control.In group III, GSH was significantly increased and MDA was significantly decreased compared to group II.The colon showed minimal changes, significant increase in the number of goblet cells, significant reduction in the number of mast cells, collagen deposition and COX-2 immunoreactivity compared to group II.When compared to the control, there was no significant difference regards the serological, histological and morphometric results, except for the number of goblet cells that revealed significant decrease.Conclusion: RJ proven to protect against acetic acid-induced UC in albino rats.
Nonlinear Stability Analysis of a Reconfigurable Origami-Inspired Structure

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Abstract This study thoroughly investigates the stability of a reconfigurable origami-inspired structure using the Finite Element Method (FEM). We use the Kresling pattern to design this foldable origami structure. We evaluate how the design’s geometric parameters, such as length ratio, number of polygon sides, and circumscribed circle’s radius, change the origami structure’s stability. We discover that the buckling load drops by increasing the structure’s length ratio. Furthermore, the results illustrate that the structure with less polygon side can be folded under less force. The circumscribed circle’s radius plays a significant role in mechanical responses to a tip force applied to an origami structure. Based on the results, it appears that the crease lines carry the greatest amount of tip load. The results and conclusions are analyzed to provide a complete design guide that can be used to improve origami structure performance.
The third kind of knowledge and “our” eternity

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This final chapter is concerned with explicating what Spinoza refers to as the scientia intuitiva or the third kind of knowledge. The scientia intuitiva has pride of place among Spinoza's three kinds of knowledge due both to its importance and difficulty. In the Ethics and the KV he related it to love of God and the part of us that is eternal. He emphasized it in the TIE as well, although in both the TIE and the KV he referred to it as the "fourth kind of knowledge" (Spinoza collapsed the first two sorts of knowledge described in the KV and the TIE into one category, imagination, in the Ethics).
Electronic theory of ordering and segregation in transition-metal alloys

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

A model for the electronic energy of alloys with arbitrary composition and short-range order is applied to $4d$ transition metals. The model is not ab initio, but only requires information about pure elemental properties which is readily available. A model Hamiltonian for the alloy is derived from these elemental properties. The electronic density of states and heat of formation are calculated from the Hamiltonian with the alloy cluster-Bethe-lattice method. Charge transfer is treated self-consistently. Results for the twenty-eight $4d$ transition-metal alloys are compared to experiment and other calculations. Predictions for the stable phase at zero temperature are in excellent agreement with experiment. The model calculation allows us to examine the physical basis for experimental trends.
[Cigarette, alcohol and drug use in 12 to 13-year-old adolescents--an anonymous survey of 2,979 students].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A total of 2,979 schoolboys and schoolgirls attending different types of German schools during their seventh year of school attendance (which begins at the age of six) were investigated by means of an anonymous questionnaire in two medium-sized German cities and their suburbs, in respect of smoking behaviour and consumption of drugs and alcoholic beverages. The proportion of schoolboys and schoolgirls smoking at least once or twice a week depended on the type of school: pupils of high schools (linguistic branch, known as "Gymnasium" in Germany) had a quota of 2.7%, whereas there were 14.3% smokers among those attending a category of public school termed "Hauptschule" (a kind of school with elementary and continuing education and a total of nine years' school attendance) and 5.6% smokers among the so-called "Realschüler" (a kind of grammar school stressing practical subjects with a total of 10 years of school attendance) and 8.2% among pupils attending a kind of integrated grammar-cum-"Hauptschule" with an alternative-choice 9-year or 10-year schedule (so-called "Gesamtschule"). A similar distribution was seen in respect of alcohol and drug consumption. Schoolboys and schoolgirls smoking at least once or twice a week will also be drinking a glass of beer per week six times as often as non-smoking pupils. In respect of wine the ratio is 4:1 and in respect of brandy 7:1. Smokers among the pupils have been trying out drugs at least once, six times as often as non-smokers. Results are statistically highly significant (p < 0.001).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Sharing economy model for the development of green economy

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

In the context of Internet +, a new shared economic model derived from practice has emerged and presented a rapid expansion trend. The essence of the sharing economy is to reduce transaction costs, divide and integrate excess idle resources, and then conduct transactions again on an open platform. In the consumption field, the sharing economy has subverted the original business model from the aspects of consumption concept, consumption mode and consumption range. In the field of the construction of ecological civilization, it promotes green consumption and advocates a green lifestyle.
During the period of slowing economic growth, the sharing economy has brought rare opportunities to the world, which is conducive to the implementation of new development concepts, fostering new energy growth, promoting supply-side structural reforms, helping entrepreneurship and innovation, and building an information age. The sharing economy is accelerating the transformation of asset ownership, production organization, service supply, employment model and consumption pattern, representing the new development direction of the current and future period, and is becoming a new engine of economic growth.
