Preparation of Dicke States in an Ion Chain
We have investigated theoretically and experimentally a method for preparing
Dicke states in trapped atomic ions. We consider a linear chain of ion
qubits that is prepared in a particular Fock state of motion, . The
phonons are removed by applying a laser pulse globally to the qubits, and
converting the motional excitation to flipped spins. The global nature of
this pulse ensures that the flipped spins are shared by all the target ions
in a state that is a close approximation to the Dicke state \D{N}{m}. We
calculate numerically the fidelity limits of the protocol and find small
deviations from the ideal state for and . We have demonstrated
the basic features of this protocol by preparing the state \D{2}{1} in two
Mg target ions trapped simultaneously with an Al
ancillary ion.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figure

Science Education for Citizenship and a Sustainable Future
In this article Jerry Wellington argues very strongly in favour of the role of science in citizenship education. He emphasizes the need for knowledge, skills and action and suggests areas and ways in which pupils can be engaged in the struggle for a sustainable future where interdependence and interconnectedness mesh well with notions of equity and justice

Date and Rate of Corn Planting
Corn is South Dakota’s most important grain crop. It is grown on 4 million acres annually. South Dakota ranks ninth among the states as a corn producer, having one-twentieth of the national acreage and one-thirtieth of the production. The state may be divided into three areas on the basis of the place of corn on the farm: the eastern area, where corn is complementary to wheat and grazing; and the western area, where corn is supplementary grazing
Exploring efficacy in personal constraint negotiation: an ethnography of mountaineering tourists
Limited work has explored the relationship between efficacy and personal constraint negotiation for adventure tourists, yet efficacy is pivotal to successful activity participation as it influences people’s perceived ability to cope with constraints, and their decision to use negotiation strategies. This paper explores these themes with participants of a commercially organised mountaineering expedition. Phenomenology-based ethnography was adopted to appreciate the social and cultural mountaineering setting from an emic perspective. Ethnography is already being used to understand adventure participation, yet there is considerable scope to employ it further through researchers immersing themselves into the experience. The findings capture the interaction between the ethnographer and the group members, and provide an embodied account using their lived experiences. Findings reveal that personal mountaineering skills, personal fitness, altitude sickness and fatigue were the four key types of personal constraint. Self-efficacy, negotiation-efficacy and other factors, such as hardiness and motivation, influenced the effectiveness of negotiation strategies. Training, rest days, personal health, and positive self-talk were negotiation strategies. A conceptual model illustrates these results and demonstrates the interplay between efficacy and the personal constraint negotiation journey for led mountaineers
