A generational arc: early literacy practices among Pakistani and Indian heritage language families
No full textThis paper focuses on the attitudes towards reading in the home, handed down through the
generations and experienced by the young children in four families of Pakistani and Indian origin.
The children’s families originally arrived in the UK in the 1960s, and this paper unpicks the stories
and attitudinal changes in relation to both English and the heritage language, throughout the
generations. Adopting a socio-cultural perspective through intergenerational family interviews, roles
within the family in terms of literacy support, the families’ use of libraries, experiences and
understanding of the education system, and the impact the heritage language has on family support
for reading in English, are explored. Through the dual linguistic lens of both English and the heritage
language (Gujarati and Urdu, respectively), the study traces a generational arc which explores areas

of concern and needs for support, seeking to inform both policy and practice in early childhood

Rtp and the datagram congestion control protocol
No full textWe describe how the new Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) can be used as a bearer for the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) to provide a congestion controlled basis for networked multimedia applications. This is a step towards deployment of congestion control for such applications, necessary to ensure the future stability of the best-effort network if high-bandwidth streaming and IPTV services are to be deployed outside of closed QoS-managed networks

Exciton Fine Structure of CsPbCl<sub>3</sub> Nanocrystals: An Interplay of Electron–Hole Exchange Interaction, Crystal Structure, Shape Anisotropy, and Dielectric Mismatch
No full textIn the semiconducting perovskite materials family, the
cesium-lead-chloride
compound (CsPbCl3) supports robust excitons characterized
by a blue-shifted transition and the largest binding energy, thus
presenting a high potential to achieve demanding solid-state room-temperature
photonic or quantum devices. Here we study the fundamental emission
properties of cubic-shaped colloidal CsPbCl3 nanocrystals
(NCs), examining in particular individual NC responses using micro-photoluminescence
in order to unveil the exciton fine structure (EFS) features. Within
this work, NCs with average dimensions ⟨Lα⟩ ≈ 8 nm (α = x, y, z) are studied with a level
of dispersity in their dimensions that allows disentangling the effects
of size and shape anisotropy in the analysis. We find that most of
the NCs exhibit an optical response under the form of a doublet with
crossed polarized peaks and an average inter-bright-state splitting,
ΔBB ≈ 1.53 meV, but triplets
are also observed though being a minority. The origin of the EFS patterns
is discussed in the frame of the electron–hole exchange model
by taking into account the dielectric mismatch at the NC interface.
The different features (large dispersity in the ΔBB values and occasional occurrence of triplets) are
reconciled by incorporating a moderate degree of shape anisotropy,
observed in the structural characterization, by preserving the relatively
high degree of the NC lattice symmetry. The energy distance between
the optically inactive state and the bright manifold, ΔBD, is also extracted from time-resolved photoluminescence
measurements (ΔBD ≈ 10.7
meV), in good agreement with our theoretical predictions
