Comment on \\Growth of Molecular Superlattice in Fully Hydrated Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine during Subgel Phase Formation Process&quot;

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Abstract. This comment shows that data recently reported [1] as being seemingly in conflict with earlier data [2] are, in fact, in excellent agreement. Together, both studies conrm that the kinetics of the subgel phase transformation in dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) lipid bilayers obeys Kolmogorov-Avrami (K-A) theory [3,4] with an anomalously low eective dimensionality.

On the Bounds of Van der Waerden Numbers

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

abstract: Van der Waerden’s Theorem asserts that for any two positive integers k and r, one may find an integer w=w(k,r) known as the Van der Waerden Number such that for every r-coloring of the integers from 1 to w there exists a monochromatic arithmetic progression of length k. This groundbreaking theorem in combinatorics has greatly impacted the field of discrete math for decades. However, it is quite difficult to find the exact values of w. As such, it would be worth more of our time to try and bound such a value, both from below and above, in order to restrict the possible values of the Van der Waerden Numbers. In this thesis we will endeavor to bound such a number; in addition to proving Van der Waerden’s Theorem, we will discuss the unique functions that bound the Van der Waerden Numbers.
Nietzsche and Zen

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In Nietzsche and Zen: Self-Overcoming Without a Self, Andr&eacute; van der Braak engages Nietzsche in a dialogue with four representatives of the Buddhist Zen tradition: Nagarjuna (c. 150-250), Linji (d. 860), Dogen (1200-1253), and Nishitani (1900-1990). In doing so, he reveals Nietzsche&#39;s thought as a philosophy of continuous self-overcoming, in which even the notion of &quot;self&quot; has been overcome. Van der Braak begins by analyzing Nietzsche&#39;s relationship to Buddhism and status as a transcultural thinker, recalling research on Nietzsche and Zen to date and setting out the basic argument of the study. He continues by examining the practices of self-overcoming in Nietzsche and Zen, comparing Nietzsche&#39;s radical skepticism with that of Nagarjuna and comparing Nietzsche&#39;s approach to truth to Linji&#39;s. Nietzsche&#39;s methods of self-overcoming are compared to Dogen&#39;s zazen, or sitting meditation practice, and Dogen&#39;s notion of forgetting the self. These comparisons and others build van der Braak&#39;s case for a criticism of Nietzsche informed by the ideas of Zen Buddhism and a criticism of Zen Buddhism seen through the Western lens of Nietzsche - coalescing into one world philosophy. This treatment, focusing on one of the most fruitful areas of research within contemporary comparative and intercultural philosophy, will be useful to Nietzsche scholars, continental philosophers, and comparative philosophers.
Horizontal transfers of Mariner transposons between mammals and insects

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Background: Active transposable elements (TEs) can be passed between genomes of different species by horizontal transfer (HT). This may help them to avoid vertical extinction due to elimination by natural selection or silencing. HT is relatively frequent within eukaryotic taxa, but rare between distant species. Findings: Closely related Mariner-type DNA transposon families, collectively named as Mariner-1_Tbel families, are present in the genomes of two ants and two mammalian genomes. Consensus sequences of the four families show pairwise identities greater than 95%. In addition, mammalian Mariner1_BT family shows a close evolutionary relationship with some insect Mariner families. Mammalian Mariner1_BT type sequences are present only in species from three groups including ruminants, tooth whales (Odontoceti), and New World leaf-nosed bats (Phyllostomidae). Conclusions: Horizontal transfer accounts for the presence of Mariner_Tbel and Mariner1_BT families in mammals. Mariner_Tbel family was introduced into hedgehog and tree shrew genomes approximately 100 to 69 million years ago (MYA). Most likely, these TE families were transferred from insects to mammals, but details of the transfer remain unknown.

Cross Channel reflections : French perceptions of Britain from Fashoda to the Boer War

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This Thesis adopts a variety of different approaches in order to throw light on French perceptions of the British at the turn of the twentieth century. Introduction, chapters one and two set these in the broader context of nineteenth-century attitudes, in particular the genre of invasion literature, and the corpus of work produced by writers from the Ecole Libre, Paris. Not straightforwardly Anglophobic or Anglophile, both drew upon similar British stereotypes, and were shaped by French self-perceptions and internal concerns. The impact of the 1898 Fashoda incident and 1899-1902 Boer War upon French attitudes generally and these strands is considered, before analysis of French diplomacy. This departs from the contending ideas that the French Foreign Minister, Delcassé, determinedly sought an alignment with the British from June 1898 onwards, or that across 1898-1901 he was presumptively hostile to Britain, suggesting instead a self-interested opportunist agenda pursued irrespective of others in policymaking circles. Chapter five takes up John Keiger’s suggestion that the Paris press may have been less hostile towards Britain before and during the Fashoda incident than is often depicted, to broaden its evidential base, and push it further, arguing that French anger over Fashoda was in part directed against other, often domestic, targets and its Anglophobia was largely retrospective. Chapter six pursues this story into the early months of the Boer War, pointing to how French press opinions, if emboldened by the tide of international criticism of British policy, again strongly reflected internal preoccupations. The French who volunteered to fight on the Boer side in the war might represent an avowed kernel of Anglophobic opinion. Chapter seven, however, concludes that their motivation had more to do with asserting a certain vision of France, not least at home, something clearly understood by them and the French press of the time.
A Minimal Architecture for General Cognition

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

A minimalistic cognitive architecture called MANIC is presented. The MANIC architecture requires only three function approximating models, and one state machine. Even with so few major components, it is theoretically sufficient to achieve functional equivalence with all other cognitive architectures, and can be practically trained. Instead of seeking to transfer architectural inspiration from biology into artificial intelligence, MANIC seeks to minimize novelty and follow the most well-established constructs that have evolved within various sub-fields of data science. From this perspective, MANIC offers an alternate approach to a long-standing objective of artificial intelligence. This paper provides a theoretical analysis of the MANIC architecture.

Features of the formation of cognitive and psychophysiological functions in children: experience of using a new software package

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Aim of the study: to determine the features of the formation of psychophysiological and cognitive functions in 6-17 year children using a comprehensive and screening software of the original package of the complex “Psychomat”. Materials and methods. A screening examination of 184 apparently healthy 6-17 year schoolchildren was carried out using a complex of psychophysiological tests and original methods for studying higher mental functions (24 tests, 66 parameters). To verify the screening program, a comprehensive examination of 60 apparently healthy schoolchildren of the same age was carried out. Results. The patterns of formation of cognitive and psychophysiological functions in 6-17 year children have been established. No gender differences were found in the analysis of cognitive and psychophysiological functions in children. Significant differences in the rate of formation of psychophysiological functions have been identified in children of primary school age (8-10 years) and are associated mainly with the speed of response and coordination. As the age of children increases, test parameters reflecting the characteristics of perception, memory, attention, analytical and synthetic processes also undergo changes: both the total and average time for completing tasks and the number of errors decrease, and the pace of execution increases. Conclusion. The original software package «Psychomat» allows using comprehensive and screening assessment of both psychophysiological and cognitive functions in 6-17 year children. The screening software as the sensitive method for detecting violations of psychophysiological and cognitive functions in the conditions of a mass examination of children can be used as a test system.
Pop feminizm, seks i bunt. Kobiecy protest w realiach Europy Wschodniej

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In this paper I would like to present an example of Ukrainian women’s movement Femen, famous for presenting the nude protest as its brand and ideological base as well as a source of their strategy, called sextremism. In the article I try to present a context of movement’s birth in the Eastern European reality of first decade of XXI century and I attempt to retrace the paths of its past and recent development. The subject of my analysis is also the process of deconstruction and further re-construction of the idea of feminism in its classical, Western terms conducted by Femen activists. Finally, I would like to show the Femen’s way of sending the message about women’s rights that connects pop culture and feminism – so called pop feminism, which become their brandmark.
[en] METROLOGICAL EVALUATION OF ZINC OXIDE VARISTORS OFMEDIUM VOLTAGE

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

[pt] Apesar de seus muitos beneficios, uma das poucas
desvantagens da tecnologia do semicondutor e a vulnerabilidade dos
dispositivos de estado solido a temperatura, sobretensoes e sobre
correntes. Mesmo os pulsos de tensao de energia muito baixos, podem
produzir interferencias e danos, as vezes com consequencias de
grande envergadura. Assim, enquanto a eletronica e utilizada em
mais e mais aplicacoes, a temperatura, a protecao contra
sobretensao e a supressao de transientes transformam-se em fatores
de suma importância para o desenvolvimento de um projeto. Os
varistores provaram ser excelentes dispositivos protetores por
causa da sua flexibilidade da aplicacao e elevada confiabilidade.
Os varistores do oxido do zinco (ZnO) sao dispositivos eletronicos
de ultima geracao, desenvolvidos para promover a protecao de
circuitos eletricos contra a sobretensao, causada pelas descargas
eletricas atmosfericas, tensoes induzidas e manobras eletricas, e
ideal para limitar a corrente de pico, bem como para absorver
energia. O objetivo deste trabalho e propor uma metodologia para
avaliacao metrologica de varistores de oxido de zinco de media
tensao, visando garantir o atendimento dos requisitos metrologicos
para a protecao de circuitos eletricos, eletronicos e de
telecomunicacoes contra a sobretensao e supressao de transientes
eletricos. Propoe-se ainda determinar a incerteza de medicao dos

disadvantages of semiconductor technology is the vulnerability of
solid state devices to undesired increase in temperature, voltage
and current . Even low voltage pulses can produce interference and
damages with several consequences. Thus, as electronics are used in
more and more applications, temperature, protection against surge
and transient suppression are becoming factors of decisive
importance in projects. Varistors have proven to be excellent
protective devices due to their flexibility in applications and
heightened trustworthiness. The zinc oxide varistors (ZnO) are
state of the art electronic devices of last generation, developed
to promote the protection of electric circuits against overvoltage,
caused by atmospheric electric discharges, induced voltages and
electric maneuvers, and suited to limit peak current, as well as
absorbing energy. The purpose of this work is to propose a
methodology for experimental characterization of zinc oxide
varistors of average voltage, with the purpose of guarantee the
attendance of the metrological requirements for protection of
electric, electronic and telecommunication circuits against
transient surges and suppression of electric transients.
Uncertainty of measurement of the parameters temperature, voltage,
current and ohmic resistance on commercial samples of zinc oxide
varistors are also determined.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of using a compress with Chamomilla recutita infusion in the regression of dry desquamation and in the prevention of moist desquamation in head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. Methods: A prospective intervention study was carried out from May 2019 to May 2021. In total, 43 participants were included, who were instructed to apply the compress with the infusion 3 times a day, after occurrence of dry desquamation. Skin evaluation took place daily from initiation of the intervention up to the end of radiotherapy. Results: All the participants presented dry desquamation regression, where 65.1% (95% CI 50.1-78.1) had total regression until the end of radiotherapy, with a mean of 9 days of regression. Only 34.9% (95% CI 21.8-49.9) of the participants developed moist desquamation by the end of the radiotherapy sessions, with a mean accumulated dose of ionizing radiation of 50.9 Gy. Conclusion: This study highlighted the potential clinical benefits of using Chamomilla recutita in the regression of dry desquamation and in the prevention of moist desquamation.
Embracing Literacy Culture in Islamic Education: A Virtual Ethnography Review of the @Publikasiilmiah Account

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The Indonesian people's commitment to literacy is being actively promoted through a range of platforms, including forums, groups, activists, and the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemendikbud), both online and offline. The task is particularly formidable amidst the Covid-19 pandemic, which has significantly impacted several aspects of people's lives, including education, over the past two years. The collective endeavors made by different entities not only aim to increase the level of reading awareness in Indonesian society but also strive to achieve a higher goal, which is to enhance literacy and work consciousness among the Indonesian population, particularly those involved in the academic and educational sphere. The literacy program has grown to include social media as a platform, in response to the growing technology advancements. This appears to enhance the depth and diversity of literacy initiatives, such as the @publikasiilmiah Instagram account, which boasts a following of 69.3 thousand individuals and has shared 15.9 thousand pieces of information. Subsequently, the writer does library research, employing qualitative analytical methodologies and drawing upon the ethnographic theory of cyber-virtual media. The user's text is “Rulli Nasrullah.” By sharing informative content through the @publikasiilmiah account, which reaches a wide online audience, the account demonstrates a high level of expertise in the field of cyber media. This expertise has positive effects on motivation and literacy in activities such as journal writing contests, conferences, and webinars.
On the strict Arnold chord property and coisotropic submanifolds of complex projective space

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

Let $α$ be a contact form on a manifold $M$, and $L\subseteq M$ a closed Legendrian submanifold. I prove that $L$ intersects some characteristic for $α$ at least twice if all characteristics are closed and of the same period, and $α$ embeds nicely into the product of $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$ and an exact symplectic manifold. As an application of the method of proof, the minimal action of a regular closed coisotropic submanifold of complex projective space is at most $π/2$. This yields an obstruction to presymplectic embeddings, and in particular to Lagrangian embeddings.
Cultural product design: an approach for identifying cultural carriers, transforming cultural elements and applying cultural features

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract Excellent products often contain profound cultural connotations. To improve the quality of cultural products, it is important to study how typical cultural carriers can be more promptly and efficiently identified and incorporated into products through a detailed and easy-to-use design process. In this article, we propose an approach from three different levels to assist designers in incorporating cultural features into products, including: (1) the integrated framework of the composition and division of cultural carriers, (2) the extraction and translation model from cultural carriers, cultural elements to cultural features and (3) the cultural product design process. The proposed approach was applied in a large and complex cultural product case, that is, inter-city train design. The evaluation of the recognition of culture features indicated that the approach contributed to conferring culture on products through thoughtful design and could ensure that the product schemes reflect cultural features as well as interesting cultural connotations.
Using permeable reactive barriers for the treatment of acid rock drainage

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

Acid mine drainage (AMD) is the most serious environmental problem facing the Canadian mineral industry today. It results from oxidation of sulphide minerals (e.g. pyrite or pyrrhotite) contained in mine waste or mine tailings and is characterized by acid effluents rich in heavy metals that are released into the environment. A new acid remediation technology is presented, by which metallurgical residues from the aluminium extraction industry are used to construct permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) to treat acid mine effluents. This technology is very promising for treating acid mine effluents in order to decrease their harmful environmental effects.
Trends In Physical Activity Knowledge And Predictors Related To Cancer Using Hints Data

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Studies within the field of cancer prevention have demonstrated that having accurate knowledge of cancer inducing behaviors is central to improving an individual's health. However, there are few studies that have focused on knowledge of physical activity in relation to reducing cancer. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to investigate trends in physical activity knowledge and predictors related to cancer using the Health Information National Trends Survey (HINTS) data. Furthermore, controlling for factors affecting differences in physical activity knowledge over time, predictors affecting these trends were examined. METHODS Data from the 2003, 2005, and 2007 administrations of HINTS were used to assess changes in physical activity knowledge in relation to cancer. Estimates of variables at each time point were calculated using survey weights, which accounted for various stages of sample selection. Furthermore, using replicate weights, jackknife standard errors were calculated to examine the variability of change between the years (Rizzo et al., 2008). Finally, controlling for multiple confounders, predictors affecting physical activity knowledge were identified using a weighted logistic regression. RESULTS Between 2003 and 2007, the prevalence of physical activity knowledge dropped significantly by 15.8% (SE=0.011) from 77.6% in 2003, 69.5% in 2005, and 61.8% in 2007. Demographic and cancer-related variables such as age (less than 40), low educational attainment, being unmarried, having low household income, poor physical health, and not seeking information about cancer, were characteristics describing adults demonstrating a significant downward trend in cancer prevention and physical activity knowledge. Controlling for these factors together, it was found that respondents that didi not seek information about cancer (OR=1.4; 95% CI=1.2, 1.5) and adults with low educational status (OR=1.7; 95% CI=1.5, 1.9) knew less about physical activity knowledge and the likelihood of getting cancer than adults that did. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of physical activity knowledge dropped significantly between 2003 and 2007. Adults that were less likely to seek information about cancer and that had low educational attainment also lacked knowledge pertaining to physical activity and cancer.
Generic Gelfand-Tsetlin Modules of Quantized and Classical Orthogonal Algebras

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

We construct infinite-dimensional analogues of finite-dimensional simple modules of the nonstandard $q$-deformed enveloping algebra $U_q'(\mathfrak{so}_n)$ defined by Gavrilik and Klimyk, and we do the same for the classical universal enveloping algebra $U(\mathfrak{so}_n)$. In this paper we only consider the case when $q$ is not a root of unity, and $q\to 1$ for the classical case. Extending work by Mazorchuk on $\mathfrak{so}_n$, we provide rational matrix coefficients for these infinite-dimensional modules of both $U_q'(\mathfrak{so}_n)$ and $U(\mathfrak{so}_n)$. We use these modules with rationalized formulas to embed the respective algebras into skew group algebras of shift operators. Casimir elements of $U_q'(\mathfrak{so}_n)$ were given by Gavrilik and Iorgov, and we consider the commutative subalgebra $Γ\subset U_q'(\mathfrak{so}_n)$ generated by these elements and the corresponding subalgebra $Γ_1\subset U(\mathfrak{so}_n)$. The images of $Γ$ and $Γ_1$ under their respective embeddings into skew group algebras are equal to invariant algebras under certain group actions. We use these facts to show $Γ$ is a Harish-Chandra subalgebra of $U_q'(\mathfrak{so}_n)$ and $Γ_1$ is a Harish-Chandra subalgebra of $U(\mathfrak{so}_n)$.
