Sanda Department of Physics, Nagoya University Chikusa ku Nagoya 464-Ol, Japan 1 Introduction Physics is a discipline which attemps to understand laws of nature through experiments. Findings of experiments are a put into theoreticalframework, which, in turn,leads to further predictions of experimental results. Every at one ' physicist, stage or another, have been impressed with the beauty ofnature displayed in its theoretical framework. Often, one is tempted to use the mathematical beauty as the criterion for constructing theories. While there is nothing wrong with this approach, its over emphasis leads to developement of mathematicians, not physicists. This is a world wide I think, however, problem. it is paticularly severe in Japan. In the future, there should be an effort, at the national level, to develope "physicists" by encouraging more students to attend this of workshops. type The should constructed program alsobe with this goal in mind. NII-Electronic Library Service SoryushironSoryushironKenkyu Kenkyu FB,D,K*uaI#igmptbt-etPIA,CP oputC2z] -BI03- 2 What lies ahead2 Here, I wish to review physics topics which might be very relevant in the next 10 to 20 years. Developement of physics depends on new experimental results. We thus list existing and anticipated experimental facilities.

SSC: At the present rate of funding, there is a good chance that SSC will be delayed for a few years. If so, it will be a 15 year project rather than a 10 year project. B factory: There is good chance that the KEK B factory will be operating before the end of the 90s. NII-Electronic Library Service SoryushironSoryushironKenkyu Kenkyu -BI04- an XkW #?, rl"he K faetory; Frascati K fa£ tory may go in operation in a few years. Super Kamioka: will be in operation in 1995. JLC: It is too early to state when it may come in operation. So, B and K factories, as well as several neutrino laboratories will be in operation during the next 5 to 10 years. Thus, study of CP vio]ation, quark masses, rare decays both in B and K decays should yield exciting results. Same can be said for study of neutrino mixing and neutrino mass problems. Information on Higgs particle, SUSY, GUTS, etc. to come in during the next 10-20 years. 3 Quark and lepton masses In this workshop, there have been many talks on quark mass matricies. The fact that quark masses and the origin of CP violation are the two things that are least understood in the standard model may not be an accident. They may both originate from the same dynamics at the GUT scale. Thus, understanding the quark mass matrix, as well as CP violation, may lead to a better understanding of the GUT physics. We might start looking at the quark and lepton mass matricies in various GUT models. For exainple, the 27 representation of Eb looks paticularly attractive: H,Ei.', O [2 71 = [(:) uf, df, D,Ci Dt, N, (3) ,, (Z),eCuC,()i(Hrr-)],, where i runs over the 3 color indecies, and L stands for the left handed helicity. Another noteworthy feature of the GUT theories is the relationship be- tween quark and lepton masses. For example, in SU(5) GUT, == rnr md=mei ms=mpi mb (4) NII-Electronic Library Service SoryushironSoryushironKenkyu Kenkyu -BI05- rB,D,K "]Nl#tagetbt-ameii CP a)pt!nl which can be traced to the SU(4) symmetry after SU(5) is brocken with oooov < ip5 >., (5) These mass relations hold at the GUT scale, and the renormalization group equation must be used to infere its implications at a £ cessible energies. At the electroweak energy sca}e (Mw), it predicts md m, mb 5 =-., = 'Vs (6) IE I; Whi}e this is excellent for the third generation, it is not very desiable for the first two generations. To remedy this situation, Georgi and Jarlskog [1] introduced 45 Higgs boson ip2b which also breaks SU(5). It satisfies the fbllowing properties: 5 ip:b=mip2a; 2ip25=o. (7) a=1 These properties require: 100 oooooo OIO < dig5 >., O O 1 ' (8) ooo -3 Ooo ' ooo where the the equality of the first gonal elements follows from the SU(3)cot.. symmetry, the vanishing of the 1ast diagonal element follows from antisymmetry, and finally, -3 fdllows from the trace condition. The ammus- ing point is that the vacuum expectation value of ¢ g5 }eads to: 1 Mr=Mb M"=3Ms Me=sMd (9) or '-gliit'･ llii'i=9iilt'i illl (io) NII-Electronic Library Service SoryushironSoryushironKenkyu Kenkyu -BI06- fiff 3: k xi g These are in fairly good agreement with experiments. Progress in often comes with this type of trial physics aRd error procee- dure. This is an exainple of a novel approach which attempts to understand the physics of GUT scale using Iow energy experimental data, Recently,thishas been extended to a program which derives the mass matricies of up, and down quarks, as well as that ef charged leptons[2]. They start with three mass matricies: O Fei¢ O O F O U=oco COB Fe'idi E O F -3EJ O OBAiD= O OD;E= O O D. (11) They show that A, ..., F can, in generaJ, be chosen real. These 7 pa- rameters and the ratio of vacuum expectation value < ipl'5 > 1 < ips > aie determinedby the masses of e, ps, T, c, b, IT!Zbl, ;:t', II'Zdl･ Then the other parameters ! m,, md,m,, l;l (12) {,,Zb1,e,,e, are determeined. They are in good agreement with experimental data, and they predict mt=176-190GeVl (13) I strongly encourage approaches of this type. Eventually some one wil} stumble across some scheme which is the key to understanding the quark mass problem. This may also fix the GUT theory and solve the CP problem. 4 Chiral symetry Low energy pion dynamics is governed by current algebra, or chiral pertur- bation theory. This approa,ch is not often applicable to K meson decays. Here, the problem of SU(3) breaking as well as the large K meson mass make the chiral purterbation approach less reliable. I believe that a lagrangian whic h includes pseudoscalar, scalar, vector, and axial vector mesons can be constructed such that it is consistent with all low energy phenomena. This will enab}e us to compute al1 hadronic matrix elements of K decays. So, in the future, K decay may yield much more precise va}ues of the KM matrix elements, NII-Electronic Library Service SoryushironSoryushironKenkyu Kenkyu -9 [B,D,K [P ca {liiggt b t iFEA, CP q)uenll -BI07- 5 Heavy quark decays and chiral symmetry In the leptonic decays ofB meson, we can choose the lepton energy so that the invariant mass of the hadrons in the final state is small (S IGeV). Then we can use chiral lagrangian mentioned above to compute the hadronic matrix elements. Thus we should be able to mate the heavy quark theory with chiral perturbation theory. 6 Baryon asymmetry of the universe The bigbang cosmology creats matter and antimatter equally. Yet, there is no antimatter in the universe. The most atractive feature of GUT is that this matter-antimatter asymmetry can be explained by introducing CP violation at the GUT scale. This leads to an interesting problem. We should be able to understand the re}ationship between the baryon asymmetry and the CP violation observed in K decays. This is the ultimate puzzle which motivates construction of the B factory. well As defined as it seems, there is a hitch. Namely, the sphereon solution to the electroweak theory can wash out the baryon asymmetry created at the GUT sc&le. Thus, inorder to solve the baryon aymmetry problem, we must understand the sphereon dynamics.'This is a nonperturbative dynamics and it is very difficult. I hope some one will bring the sphereon problem to its conclusion so that further progress on the baryon asymmetry can be made. 7 Summary KEK has chosen the B factory as the next project. It is very important that the project has a ful} theoretical support. At the same time, it is an opertunity to understand the real origin of CP violtion. This will certainly lead us to the physics beyond the standard model. BDK should design its activities so that it can stimulate the physics community along this line, and also educate students in doing real physics. I only covered few topics which should be of great interest for the next 10 r-v 20 years. I am encouraged that there is already the BDK group which attempts to hold regular workshops on this type of physics.

  • Discovery of Bilaterian-Type Through-Guts in Cloudinomorphs from the Terminal Ediacaran Period
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13882-z OPEN Discovery of bilaterian-type through-guts in cloudinomorphs from the terminal Ediacaran Period James D. Schiffbauer 1,2*, Tara Selly 1,2*, Sarah M. Jacquet 1, Rachel A. Merz3, Lyle L. Nelson4, Michael A. Strange5, Yaoping Cai6 & Emily F. Smith 4 The fossil record of the terminal Ediacaran Period is typified by the iconic index fossil Cloudina and its relatives. These tube-dwellers are presumed to be primitive metazoans, but resolving 1234567890():,; their phylogenetic identity has remained a point of contention. The root of the problem is a lack of diagnostic features; that is, phylogenetic interpretations have largely centered on the only available source of information—their external tubes. Here, using tomographic analyses of fossils from the Wood Canyon Formation (Nevada, USA), we report evidence of recog- nizable soft tissues within their external tubes. Although alternative interpretations are plausible, these internal cylindrical structures may be most appropriately interpreted as digestive tracts, which would be, to date, the earliest-known occurrence of such features in the fossil record. If this interpretation is correct, their nature as one-way through-guts not only provides evidence for establishing these fossils as definitive bilaterians but also has implications for the long-debated phylogenetic position of the broader cloudinomorphs. 1 Department of Geological Sciences, University of Missouri, Columbia, MO 65211, USA. 2 X-ray Microanalysis Core, University of Missouri, Columbia, MO 65211, USA. 3 Biology Department, Swarthmore College, Swarthmore, PA 19081, USA. 4 Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD 21218, USA.

  • What Toyota Has to Say About Wussy-Boys
    What Toyota has to say about wussy-boys How could you doubt the manliness of Japanese men? Yes, I know, poor kid– Kamenashi Kazuya is Secret Garden’s posterchild for all that is confused and confusing in Japan. For the past several months my interest in gender issues in Japanese pop culture have had me following this topic of Soushokukei Danshi Nikushokukei Jyou, translated: Herbivore guys, carnivore girls. “Soushokukei danshi” describes a “trend” of ‘herbivore men’, or a group of young men (typically classified as being metrosexual) who are rejecting the typical guidelines of masculinity, and embracing an alternative style. It’s a type of Otomen syndrome, as it were, for anyone who has read the manga/seen the drama. Otomen follows the story of a young man who, on the outside appears to be a manly-man, but who secretly loves sewing, crochet, stuffed animals, strawberry parfaits and baking beautiful cakes. Soushokukei danshi have been described as being more “family oriented”, and being uninterested in women and dating. Next in line are the carnivorous girls, beautiful, intelligent, ambitious young women displaying all of the characteristics it seems the men should be displaying: charisma, confidence, focus, and guts. These go-getters have been described by the soushokukei danshi as being “scary” (I’m shaking in my boots already…). The typical dynamic spelled out by this phenomenon is a type of gender- role-reversal, where the herbivorous guys seem unable to get up the manly gumption to go after girls, but prefer to wait for the carnivorous beauty (as long as he’s not scared of her, that is) to hunt him down and snatch him up in one fell swoop (sounds okay to me…).

Thank you! Teacher School Grade # of Time spent Comments Name students with box contents Background for the teacher… Background for digestion: Before we investigate the many different problems individuals can have with digestion, here’s how normal digestion works - What Is Digestion? Digestion is the complex process of turning the food you eat into the energy you need to survive. The digestive tract (or gut) is a long twisting tube that starts at the mouth and ends at the anus. It is made up of a series of muscles that coordinate the movement of food and other cells that produce enzymes and hormones to aid in the breakdown of food. For the purpose of this curriculum, we have focused our reference to “guts” primarily on the following 7 organs: small intestine, large intestine, stomach, liver, pancreas, appendix, and gall bladder. If you choose to use lesson extensions or further research with students, the other aspects of the digestive process can be investigated. Stop 1: The Mouth -The mouth is the beginning of the digestive system, and, in fact, digestion starts here before you even take the first bite of a meal. The smell of food triggers the salivary glands in your mouth to secrete saliva, causing your mouth to water. When you actually taste the food, saliva increases. Once you start chewing and breaking the food down into pieces small enough to be digested other mechanisms come into play.

  • The PMA Technique: Finally! a Breakthrough for Visionaries and Go Getters!
    powered by Great Ideas to Improve Your Life 950,000 Subscribers ...and Growing The PMA Technique: Finally! A Breakthrough for Visionaries and Go Getters! By Jacob Korthuis A New Human Awareness Transforming our inner drives and belief systems is the key to revolutionizing our personal reflections regarding health, self-improvement, relationships and behavior. For too long, we were not aware enough of the power and value of our inner environment and especially how to change negative beliefs and behavior into positive proactive energy. Now, through the groundbreaking Progressive Mental Alignment® (PMA) Technique, this tool is available to you. The PMA belief system transformation technique is based on the discovery of a new phenomenon called “Bad Clusters.” These clusters serve as subconscious neurophysiologic jamming stations, placing a negative sabotaging influence on more than 75% of our thoughts, belief systems, decisions, and behaviors. We all experience their effects when we’re suddenly taken out of our flow, or when insignificant things abruptly disturb our good mood and productivity. Everybody has these bad clusters in their subconscious. They work like computer viruses on all your operating systems. They also imprison large amounts of energy that would otherwise be freed for proactive use. We all carry a certain amount of emotional burdens in our backpack. But we don’t want constantly to be reminded of this misery. “You have to leave the past alone,” is a commonly heard expression. The recent discovery of bad clusters clearly shows that you may decide to leave the past alone, but the past won’t leave you alone as long as those bad clusters remain undetected! These particular hidden elements of the past make you sick and sabotage your behavior.

Gut Contents Analysis of Four Fish Species Collected in San Leandro Bay in August 2016. SFEI Contribution #900. San Francisco Estuary Institute, Richmond, CA. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In support of PCB modeling for San Leandro Bay, a Priority Margin Unit (PMU) for PCB load reduction in the estuary, fish samples of four species (topsmelt, shiner perch, white croaker, and northern anchovy ) were obtained in August 2016 for both tissue analysis and examination of gut contents. The bay was sampled at eight locations, with a repeated sampling at one location (Airport Lagoon) for one species (topsmelt). Fish were measured, weighed, and dissected, and their gut contents examined microscopically. Topsmelt (9 samples, 188 specimens) had the greatest variety of food items, with gammarid amphipods and chain diatoms predominating. Some topsmelt, especially larger individuals, consumed macroalgae as a major dietary component. Two samples at two sites for shiner perch (20 fish each) had contents composed of close to 50% gammarids at both sites, but differed in proportions of bivalves and polychaetes among the important food items. The one sample of white croaker had consumed mostly gammarids, with fish and polychaetes ranking next in importance. A single sample of northern anchovy (20 fish analyzed) differed radically from the other species in consuming mainly a diatom that appears to have been filtered from the water column.

  • The Theme of the Double in Ian Rankin´S Knots & Crosses and Hide And
    Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Education The theme of the Double in Ian Rankin´s Knots & Crosses and Hide and Seek. — Hilde O. Nordjord Master Thesis in English Literature ENG-3992 May 2016 Abstract. This thesis is about the theme of the Double in Ian Rankin´s two first crime novels Knots & Crosses, published in 1987, and Hide and Seek, published in 1990. My thesis statement is that Ian Rankin has developed the theme of doubling with great weaknesses since he has chosen to place the characters so closely together in both novels. Many different games are played in the novels. That is typical of the genre and for these two specific novels. Antagonists and protagonists play games with each other in order to gain information, to figure each other out in order to have the upper hand or simply to survive. The characters relate to books in different ways, but all of the important characters are in one way or another involved with books. The titles of the novels do not only reflect what the novels contain, but there are also literal and non-literal examples of how the words in the titles are used in both texts. The actions of strangulation and choking are present in the first novel as a murder method and a link between Detective John Rebus and the murderer, Gordon Reeve. In the second novel these actions are merely used as a plot device. The connection between Robert Louis Stevenson´s Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is undisputable in both novels. It reiterates the importance of the theme and shows off the likeness between the characters in Rankin´s novels and the Jekyll and Hyde character.

At age 24 I moved to Seattle with a resume devoted to public service and fantasies of single-handedly ending poverty. But within a year I’d developed an intestinal illness so rare I wound up in a medical journal. I navigated misdiagnosis, multiple surgeries, and life with a permanent colostomy. Like many female patients my concerns were glossed over by doctors. I was young and insecure, major liabilities in my life as a patient. How would I advocate for low- income people when I couldn’t even advocate for myself? My model for assertiveness was my friend Beth. She was the kind of friend who’d accompany you to the doctor when you got dysentery in Ecuador, nonchalantly translating the graphic details of your symptoms into Spanish. Throughout my illness she took care of me; then she developed brain cancer and our roles reversed. Eventually I recovered, but Beth’s condition worsened. At the age of 38, she died. To cope, I competed in endurance events, becoming a triathlete with a colostomy pouch. 125 million Americans, nearly half the U.S.
