No full textJoint perception: gaze and social context
Get PDFWe found that the way people looked at images was influenced by their belief that others were looking too. If participants believed that an unseen other person was also looking at what they could see, it shifted the balance of their gaze between negative and positive images. The direction of this shift depended upon whether participants thought that later they would be compared against the other person or would be collaborating with them. Changes in the social context influenced both gaze and memory processes, and were not due just to participants' belief that they are looking at the same images, but also to the belief that they are doing the same task. We believe that the phenomenon of joint perception reveals the pervasive and subtle effect of social context upon cognitive and perceptual processes
Thermal expansion anomalies of R(Fe, M)(12) (R=Y, Nd; M=Mo and Si)
No full textStructural and thermal-expansion anomaly studies on R(Fe,M)(12) (R=Nd and and Y, M=Mo and Si) compounds were performed by x-ray diffraction. Mo atoms occupy the 8i site. While Si atoms occupy the 8f and 8j sites but not the 8i site. Thermal-expansion anomaly shows only in ab plane in the Mo compounds, while becomes very weak and along with only the c axis in the Si compounds. The anomaly was attributed to the contribution of the interactions of short Fe-Fe distances similar to the previous explanation on other R-Fe intermetallics and that of other strongly positive interactions such as 8j-8j.

Effect of in ovo injection of some B-group vitamins on performance of broiler breeders and their progeny
No full textSUMMARY: Many researchers around the world have been attracted by the delivery of various nutrients, supplements, safety factors, vaccines and drugs through in ovo injection to enhance the production performance, immunity and health of broilers. The purpose of this review is to summarise the information on in ovo injection of some B-group vitamins into the eggs of broiler breeder flocks and their progeny. The available results of different trials showed that in ovo injection of thiamine as well as riboflavin at 100 μg concentration improved hatching, conversion factor and body weight in broilers. It improved the chickens’ performance and other performance indices such as conversion coefficient, one-day weight and body weight, and also had a positive effect on the immunity (such as increasing IgM and IgG levels and increasing lysozyme activity) of experimental treatments. On the other hand, in ovo injection of choline did not affect the hatchability rate, but improved the performance indices of the experimental treatments, as well as the effect found with in ovo injection of folic acid. In ovo injection of 40–100 μg of folic acid had no effect on hatchability rate, but had significant effects on the immune system (increasing IgM and IgG levels, and increasing lysozyme activity, and increasing lymph node weight in experimental treatments) and performance. In addition, in ovo injection of pyridoxine at a concentration of 100 μg as well as cobalamin at 40 μg improved the hatchability and performance indices (feed conversion ratio, body weight). Furthermore, in this review, we attempt to provide a comprehensive overview of this issue by outlining the reports and explaining the mechanism of action of these vitamins

Daisuke Kitigawa, Waichi Oyanagi, Chisako Higuchi, Mutsuo Hasiguchi and Mrs. Matsuoka, Makato Kobukata, the Hirabayashi family, and Violet Yokoyama. A note in pencil at the top of the page: "Burcham." A response letter from Grace and Calvin Coke to Thomas R. Bodine is found in item: chs_ms840_0306.Personal correspondence, organizational records, government documents, publications, and other papers created or collected by Joseph R. Goodman documenting the forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II, as well as organized resistance to incarceration. Included in the collection are records of the Japanese Young Men's Christian Association and the Japanese American Citizens' League in San Francisco, including papers of the Japanese YMCA's executive secretary Lincoln Kanai; Sakai family papers; Goodman's correspondence to and from Japanese American incarcerees, organizations opposing forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans, the War Relocation Authority, and others; publications, photographs, and ephemera from the Topaz Relocation Center, where Goodman taught high school; War Relocation Authority records and publications; and newspaper clippings, pamphlets, and reports about forced removal and incarceration created by various government, religious, and civic organizations, in California and nationwide
A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1
No full textSpectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines. We tentatively interpret this variability as due to orbital motion, making it the first indication of the orbital period of Ser X-1. Together with the fact that the emission lines are remarkably narrow, but still resolved, we show that a main-sequence K dwarf together with a canonical 1.4 M? neutron star gives a good description of the system. In this scenario, the most likely place for the emission lines to arise is the accretion disc, instead of a localized region in the binary (such as the irradiated surface or the stream-impact point), and their narrowness is due instead to the low inclination (?10°) of Ser X-1
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
Get PDFBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
