Assessing Intercultural Communication Competence of the Filipino and American Managers
This study builds on work by Matveev and Nelson [1] which investigated the relationship between intercultural communication competence and multicultural team performance using American and Russian managers. This study examines the impact of national culture for Filipino and American subjects. While a relationship between intercultural communication competence and multicultural team performance was found, it did not differ by overall national culture. The three dimensions of intercultural communication competence – team effectiveness, intercultural uncertainty, and intercultural empathy – and overall intercultural communication competence were found to be significantly different between Filipino and Americans

Measurement of the ratio of prompt χ c to J / ψ production in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
The prompt production of charmonium χ c and J / ψ states is studied in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The χ c and J / ψ mesons are identified through their decays χ c → J / ψ γ and J / ψ → μ + μ - using 36 pb - 1 of data collected by the LHCb detector in 2010. The ratio of the prompt production cross-sections for χ c and J / ψ, σ (χ c → J / ψ γ) / σ (J / ψ), is determined as a function of the J / ψ transverse momentum in the range 2 < p T J / ψ < 15 GeV / c. The results are in excellent agreement with next-to-leading order non-relativistic expectations and show a significant discrepancy compared with the colour singlet model prediction at leading order, especially in the low p T J / ψ region

Thermoacoustic Instabilities in the Rijke Tube: Experiments and Modeling
Thermoacoustic instability can appear in thermal devices when unsteady heat release is coupled with pressure perturbations. This effect results in excitation of eigen acoustic modes of the system. These instabilities are important in various technical applications, for instance, in rocket motors and thermoacoustic engines.
A Rijke tube, representing a resonator with a mean flow and a concentrated heat source, is a convenient system for studying the fundamental physics of thermoacoustic instabilities. At certain values of the main system parameters, a loud sound is generated through a process similar to that in real-world devices prone to thermoacoustic instability. Rijke devices have been extensively employed for research purposes. The current work is intended to overcome the serious deficiencies of previous investigations with regard to estimating experimental errors and the influence of parameter variation on the results. Also, part of the objective here is to account for temperature field non-uniformity and to interpret nonlinear phenomena. The major goals of this study are to deliver accurate experimental results for the transition to instability and the scope and nature of the excited regimes, and to develop a theory that explains and predicts the effects observed.
An electrically heated, horizontally oriented, Rijke tube is used for the experimental study of transition to instability. The stability boundary is quantified as a function of major system parameters with measured uncertainties for the data collected. Hysteresis in the stability boundary is observed for certain operating regimes of the Rijke tube.
An innovative theory is developed for modeling the Rijke oscillations. First, linear theory, incorporating thermal analysis that accurately determines the properties of the modes responsible for the transition to instability, is used to predict the stability boundary. Then, a nonlinear extension of the theory is derived by introducing a hypothesis for a special form of the nonlinear heat transfer function. This nonlinear modeling is shown to predict the hysteresis phenomenon and the limit cycles observed during the tests.
A new, reduced-order modeling approach for combustion instabilities in systems with vortex shedding is derived using the developed analytical framework. A hypothesis for the vortex detachment criterion is introduced, and a kicked oscillator model is applied to produce nonlinear results characteristic for unstable combustion systems.
The experimental system and the mathematical model, developed in this work for the Rijke tube, are recommended for preliminary design and analysis of real-world thermal devices, where thermoacoustic instability is a concern.</p

Identification of clouds and aurorae in optical data images
In this paper we present an automatic image recognition technique used to identify clouds and aurorae in digital images, taken with a CCD all-sky imager. The image recognition algorithm uses image segmentation to generate a binary block object image. Object analysis is then performed on the binary block image, the results of which are used to assess whether clouds, aurorae and stars are present in the original image. The need for such an algorithm arises because the optical study of particle precipitation into the Earth's atmosphere by the Ionosphere and Radio Propagation Group at Lancaster generates vast data-sets, over 25 000 images/year, making manual classification of all the images impractical
