    Exact lattice Ward-Takahashi identity for the N=1 Wess-Zumino model

    Full text link
    We consider a lattice formulation of the four dimensional N=1 Wess-Zumino model that uses the Ginsparg-Wilson relation. This formulation has an exact supersymmetry on the lattice. We show that the corresponding Ward-Takahashi identity is satisfied, both at fixed lattice spacing and in the continuum limit. The calculation is performed in lattice perturbation theory up to order g2g^2 in the coupling constant. We also show that this Ward-Takahashi identity determines the finite part of the scalar and fermion renormalization wave functions which automatically leads to restoration of supersymmetry in the continuum limit. In particular, these wave functions coincide in this limit.Comment: 19 pages, 6 figure

Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif, dimana data diperoleh dari hasil obsevasi dan wawancara langsung dengan informan penelitian, yaitu dosen, staf administrasi dan mahasiswa maupun pejabat struktural STIKes Perintis. Data yang diperoleh kemudian dianalisis dengan langkah reduksi data, penyajian data dan penarikan kesimpulan atau verifikasi

    What U.S Defense Attorneys Know About Facial Composites

    Full text link
    The Innocence Project’s DNA exoneration database (2018) indicates that approximately 27% of wrongful conviction cases containing eyewitness evidence also included a composite or sketch[1] of the perpetrator. This statistic is alarming, given that composites are rarely used in criminal investigations (PERF, 2013), but not surprising considering “good” composites are notoriously difficult to construct (e.g., Wells, Charman, & Olson, 2005). It is well understood that eyewitness evidence can be particularly persuasive evidence of guilt for juries and thus we were interested in learning more about how defense attorneys prepare for trial with respect to this specific type of eyewitness evidence. The overall purpose of this study was to assess the level of knowledge, education, training, and litigation experience defense attorneys have regarding composites through a survey methodology. We hypothesized that participants would have some knowledge about general eyewitness identification issues but would mostly be poorly trained and educated on composites. We also hypothesized that defense attorneys would report having been relatively unsuccessful in their attempts to suppress composite evidence at trial. The results supported our hypotheses. We anticipate that the results may benefit defense attorneys in future motions to suppress, both at trial and post-conviction hearings, and assist them in protecting their clients from wrongful conviction

    Safety and efficacy of liposomal amphotericin B for the empirical therapy of invasive fungal infections in immunocompromised patients

    Get PDF
    Liposomal amphotericin B is a “true” liposomal formulation of amphotericin B with greatly reduced nephrotoxicity and minimal infusion-related toxicity. This broad spectrum polyene is well tolerated and effective against most invasive fungal infections. In view of the current limitations on diagnostic capability of invasive fungal infections, most clinicians are often compelled to use antifungal drugs in an empiric manner; liposomal amphotericin B continues to play an important role in the empiric management of invasive fungal infections, despite the recent availability of several other drugs in the azole and echinocandin classes

    Kinerja Bioreaktor Hibrid Anaerob dengan Media Batu untuk Pengolahan Air Buangan yang Mengandung Molase

    Anaerobic hybrid bioreactor is a combination of suspended and attached growth systems. Stone was used as the microorganism attachment media. The feeding solution was made from molasses diluted to COD concentration of 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 and 40,000 mg/L. The hydraulic detention time was 30 hours and the height ratio between suspended and attached growth system was 0.5. The result shows that the organic concentration seems to be on of the determining factors. Furthermore, since the methane production was still low enough, it seems that the process has not achieved its optimum condition for methanogenic stage.
