Perbandingan Analisis Trend dan Holt Double Eksponensial Smoothing dalam Meramalkan Angka Kematian Bayi di Jawa Timur
Forecasting is needed to determine when an event will happen so the exact decision can be implemented. Time series analysis is an exact approach for forecasting a variable in the future, and it will be implemented for infant mortality data in East Java. The trend analysis and Holt double exponential smoothing are time series methods that be used to forecast infant mortality rate in East Java in the future systematicallyand statistically. The objective of this research was to compare the forecasting result of both methods to select which method can forecast infant mortality rate of East Java accurately according to the smallest MAPE. This research used secondary data of infant mortality rate in East Java started at 1995 until 2005, which were taken from National Survey for Social Economic (Susenas) data by Center of Statistical Board (BPS)of East Java. The data were analyzed by using trend analysis, Holt double exponential smoothing, and computer program. According to the result of research, the trend analysis (linear) method had found MAPE 3,88%, and the MAPE of Holt double exponential smoothing method 4,96%, so the conclusion of this result that found the best method of forecasting infant mortality rate in East Java was trend analysis (linear) method with the smallest MAPE. The result hopped can be useful as idea and early information for the planning of health care program in order to decrease infant mortality rate in East Java. To have accurate result should evaluate the re-prediction in short time.Key words: trend analysis, Holt double exponential smoothing, forecasting, infant mortality rat
Deep UV Luminosity Functions at the Infall Region of the Coma Cluster
We have used deep GALEX observations at the infall region of the Coma cluster
to measure the faintest UV luminosity functions (LFs) presented for a rich
galaxy cluster thus far. The Coma UV LFs are measured to M_UV = -10.5 in the
GALEX FUV and NUV bands, or 3.5 mag fainter than previous studies, and reach
the dwarf early-type galaxy population in Coma for the first time. The
Schechter faint-end slopes (alpha = -1.39 in both GALEX bands) are shallower
than reported in previous Coma UV LF studies owing to a flatter LF at faint
magnitudes. A Gaussian-plus-Schechter model provides a slightly better
parametrization of the UV LFs resulting in a faint-end slope of ~ -1.15 in both
GALEX bands. The two-component model gives faint-end slopes shallower than -1
(a turnover) for the LFs constructed separately for passive and star forming
galaxies. The UV LFs for star forming galaxies show a turnover at M_UV ~ -14
owing to a deficit of dwarf star forming galaxies in Coma with stellar masses
below M*=10^8 Msun. A similar turnover is identified in recent UV LFs measured
for the Virgo cluster suggesting this may be a common feature of local galaxy
clusters, whereas the field UV LFs continue to rise at faint magnitudes. We did
not identify an excess of passive galaxies as would be expected if the missing
dwarf star forming galaxies were quenched inside the cluster. In fact, the LFs
for both dwarf passive and star forming galaxies show the same turnover at
faint magnitudes. We discuss the possible origin of the missing dwarf star
forming galaxies in Coma and their expected properties based on comparisons to
local field galaxies.Comment: accepted for publication in Ap

Konfirmasi Anopheles Sinensis dan Anopheles Vagus sebagai Vektor Malaria di Kabupaten Muara Enim Provinsi Sumatera Selatan
. Muara Enim Regency is one of endemic malaria area in South Sumatera Province. The number of malaria clinical cases in 2015 is 9.382 cases with positive confirmed by microscopy is 143 cases (Annual parasite incidence = 0,26%o). There were no information or publication confirmed the vector of malaria in this regency. The aims of this study was to confirm species of Anopheles as malaria vector and its biting behavior in Muara Enim Regency. The study carried out two activity that were mosquito collection (indoor and outdoor) starts from 18.00 hours until 06.00 in the morning, and survey of the breeding habitat of pre-adult mosquito. The total of Anopheles mosquitoes collected were 1.443 and 200 mosquitoes were prepared for sporozoit identification by ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) method. Two species of Anopheles (of four mosquitoes), Anopheles sinensis and An. vagus, were confirmed sporozoit positive. Anopheles sinensis tends to bite outdoors while An. vagus prefer indoors. Both species actively biting at 9 p.m. until 4 a.m
Predictions for decays
We present a phenomenological study of the rare double radiative decay in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond. Using the operator
product expansion (OPE) technique, we estimate the short-distance (SD)
contribution to the decay amplitude in a region of the phase space which is
around the point where all decay products have energy in the rest
frame of the -meson. At lowest order in 1/Q, where is of order ,
the matrix element is then expressed in terms of the
usual form factors known from semileptonic rare decays. The integrated
SD branching ratio in the SM in the OPE region turns out to be . We work
out the di-photon invariant mass distribution with and without the resonant
background through . In the SM,
the resonance contribution is dominant in the region of phase space where the
OPE is valid. The present experimental upper limit on
decays, which constrains the scalar/pseudoscalar Four-Fermi operators with
, leaves considerable room for new physics in the
one-particle-irreducible contribution to decays. In this
case, we find that the SD branching ratio can be
enhanced by one order of magnitude with respect to its SM value and the SD
contribution can lie outside of the resonance peaks.Comment: 17 pages, 4 figures; Note added on Schouten identity and 2 references

Impact of deforestation on solid and dissolved organic matter characteristics of tropical peat forests: implications for carbon release
This study compares the organic chemistry of peat beneath one of last remaining pristine tropical peat forests in Southeast Asia with a neighbouring peat dome that has been deforested, but not intentionally drained, in the Belait district of Brunei Darussalam, Borneo. We characterized the solid and dissolved organic matter collected from the two domes, through a combination of methods including elemental analysis, phenolic content and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) investigation of solid peat, as well as optical characterisation (absorbance, fluorescence) of dissolved organic matter (DOM). The peat had a high content of lignin, consistent with its origin from the Shorea albida trees on the domes. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration in the pore water was significantly greater in the deforested site (79.9 ± 5.5 mg l[superscript −1]) than the pristine site (62.2 ± 2.2 mg l[superscript −1]). The dissolved organic matter was richer in nitrogen and phenolics in the deforested site. The optical properties (Fluorescence Index) indicated a modification of DOM cycling in the deforested site (enhanced decomposition of the peat and fresh litter). Comparison of the solid peat composition between the two sites also suggests effects of deforestation: sulphur, nitrogen and phenolic contents were higher in the deforested site. Taken together, these observations are consistent with peat enhanced decomposition in the deforested site, even without engineered drainage.Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology.
