Femininity in North Korea

Important changes are taking place inside North Korea. The collapse of the command economy, and the emergence of capitalism in its place, is ongoing. A burgeoning moneyed elite and increasing exposure to foreign pop culture are transforming how North Korean femininity is conceived. These changes are reaching far beyond Pyongyang to affect many, if not most, women in the country. Officially, North Korea’s founding juche (self-reliance) ideology supports gender equality. In practice the leadership cult that was entrenched under Kim Il-sung, who led the country from 1948 to 1994, gave patriarchal relations a significant boost. Under Kim Il-sung, the nation was recast in line with traditional, largely Confucian, male-dominated family structures — a considerable backslide from the progressive gender norms promoted by the early Korean socialist movement. Despite its rhetoric, Kim Il-sung’s juche ideology directly perpetuated gender subordination

Investigation into the dual role of shear flow in 2D MHD turbulence

The turbulent diffusion eta(T) of a large-scale magnetic field B-0 is numerically studied in two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic turbulence with an imposed shear flow. We demonstrate that a shear flow plays a dual role, quenching transport through shear destruction and enhancing it via resonance. Specifically without resonance eta(T)proportional to B-0(-4) with no shear (rms shearing rate=Omega=0) and eta(T)proportional to Omega(-2.7) for B-0=0, while with resonance eta(T)proportional to B-0(-2)proportional to Omega(-2). These results indicate that the absence of resonance is responsible for the most catastrophic reductions in transport

Measuring of ∣Vub∣|V_{ub}| in the forthcoming decade

I first introduce the importance of measuring V_ub precisely. Then, from a theoretician's point of view, I review (a) past history, (b) present trials, and (c) possible future alternatives on measuring |V_ub| and/or |V_ub/V_cb|. As of my main topic, I introduce a model-independent method, which predicts \Gamma(B -> X_u l \nu) / \Gamma(B -> X_c l \nu) \equiv (\gamma_u / \gamma_c) \times | V_{ub} / V_{cb}|^2 \simeq (1.83 \pm 0.28) \times |V_ub / V_cb|^2 and |V_ub/V_cb| \equiv (\gamma_c / \gamma_u)^{1/2} \times [{\cal{B}}(B -> X_u l \nu)/{\cal{B}}(B -> X_c l \nu)]^{1/2} \simeq (0.74 \pm 0.06) \times [{\cal{B}}(B -> X_u l \nu)/ {\cal{B}}(B -> X_c l \nu)]^{1/2}, based on the heavy quark effective theory. I also explore the possible experimental options to separate B -> X_u l \nu from the dominant B -> X_c l \nu: the measurement of inclusive hadronic invariant mass distributions, and the `D - \pi' (and `K - \pi') separation conditions. I also clarify the relevant experimental backgrounds.Comment: 9 pages(LaTeX), 1 Postscript figur

Cloud computing in nanoHUB powering education and research

MiniMol is a minimal molecular statics (MS) and molecular dynamics (MD) program accompanying the book “Modeling Materials: Continuum, Atomistic and Multiscale Techniques” by Ellad B. Tadmor and Ronald E. Miller, Cambridge University Press, 2011. In MS mode, the program performs energy minimization using a conjugate gradient minimization. In MD mode, it can perform dynamical simulations at constant energy or constant temperature using a velocity rescaling, Nose–Hoover or Langevin thermostat. MiniMol is compliant with the Knowledgebase of Interatomic Models (KIM) application programming interface. This means MiniMol can be seamlessly run with any KIM-compliant interatomic model (potential) stored within the OpenKIM repository (http://openkim.org). KIM is a major NSF-funded effort to improve the reliability, gage the accuracy, and enhance the portability of empirical interatomic potentials
