    Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat besaran faktor-faktor yang memliki pengaruh dalam perilaku penggunaan kosmetik pada siswi remaja, dimana yang menjadi subjek penelitian adalah murid siswi SMAN 10 MEDAN yang berjumlah 40 orang.Berdasarkan tinjauan pustaka maka hipotesis yang diajukan dalam penelitian ini adalah adanya dampak signifikan antara faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi perilaku penggunaan kosmetik.Dalam upaya membuktikan hipotesis tersebut, digunakan metode uji normalitas One Sample Kolmogorov- Smirnov Testuntuk mengetahui apakah data terdistribusi secara normal, didapatkan hasil bahwa data terdistribusi normal. Dilanjutkan dengan melakukan uji Hipotesisuntuk menguji apakah hipotesis sesui dengan penelitian, dan didapatkanhasil bahwa tidak ada perbedaan signifikan pada perilaku penggunaan kosmetik dari penggunaan kosmetik (p = 0,071 > 0,05) menunjukkan pengaruh yang tidak signifikan. Pengambilan keputusan dilihat pula dari persentase penyebaran skor dari perilaku penggunaan kosmetik pada keseluruhan subjek. Subjek yang memiliki kategori perilaku penggunaan kosmetik sangat rendah 10%, kategori perilaku penggunaan kosmetik sedang 70%, kategori perilaku penggunaan kosmetik tinggi 20%. Dari data persentase ini menunjukkan bahwa mayoritas subjek secara dominan berada pada kategori sedang, hal ini menunjang penjelasan bahwa faktor perilaku penggunaan kosmetik tidak berpengaruh signifikan terhadap penggunaan kosmetikThis study aims to see the magnitude of factors that have an influence in the behavior of cosmetic use in adolescent students, where the subject of research isstudents of SMAN 10 MEDAN which amounted to 40 people.Based on literature review, the hypothesis proposed in this study is the existence of significant impact between the factors that influence the behavior of cosmetic use. In an effort to prove the hypothesis, used the test method of normality One Sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test to determine whether the data is normally distributed, the results obtained that the data is normally distributed. Followed by Hypothesis test to test whether the hypothesis is in agreement with the research, and it was found that there was no significant difference in cosmetic use behavior from cosmetic use (p = 0,071> 0,05) showed insignificant effect. Decisionmaking is also seen from the percentage of scoring spread of cosmetic use behavior on the whole subject. Subjects who have the category of cosmetic use behavior are very low 10%, the category of cosmetic use behavior is 70%, the category of high cosmetic use behavior 20%. From this percentage data indicates that the majority of subjects are predominantly in the medium category, this supports the explanation that the behavioral factors of cosmetic use has no significanteffect on the use of cosmetic

    Multimessenger NuEM Alerts with AMON

    Get PDF
    The Astrophysical Multimessenger Observatory Network (AMON), has developed a real-time multi-messenger alert system. The system performs coincidence analyses of datasets from gamma-ray and neutrino detectors, making the Neutrino-Electromagnetic (NuEM) alert channel. For these analyses, AMON takes advantage of sub-threshold events, i.e., events that by themselves are not significant in the individual detectors. The main purpose of this channel is to search for gamma-ray counterparts of neutrino events. We will describe the different analyses that make-up this channel and present a selection of recent results

    On 2017 August 17 a binary neutron star coalescence candidate (later designated GW170817) with merger time 12:41:04 UTC was observed through gravitational waves by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors. The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor independently detected a gamma-ray burst (GRB 170817A) with a time delay of ~1.7 s with respect to the merger time. From the gravitational-wave signal, the source was initially localized to a sky region of 31 deg2 at a luminosity distance of 40+8-8 Mpc and with component masses consistent with neutron stars. The component masses were later measured to be in the range 0.86 to 2.26 Mo. An extensive observing campaign was launched across the electromagnetic spectrum leading to the discovery of a bright optical transient (SSS17a, now with the IAU identification of AT 2017gfo) in NGC 4993 (at ~40 Mpc) less than 11 hours after the merger by the One- Meter, Two Hemisphere (1M2H) team using the 1 m Swope Telescope. The optical transient was independently detected by multiple teams within an hour. Subsequent observations targeted the object and its environment. Early ultraviolet observations revealed a blue transient that faded within 48 hours. Optical and infrared observations showed a redward evolution over ~10 days. Following early non-detections, X-ray and radio emission were discovered at the transient’s position ~9 and ~16 days, respectively, after the merger. Both the X-ray and radio emission likely arise from a physical process that is distinct from the one that generates the UV/optical/near-infrared emission. No ultra-high-energy gamma-rays and no neutrino candidates consistent with the source were found in follow-up searches. These observations support the hypothesis that GW170817 was produced by the merger of two neutron stars in NGC4993 followed by a short gamma-ray burst (GRB 170817A) and a kilonova/macronova powered by the radioactive decay of r-process nuclei synthesized in the ejecta

    Update on the Combined Analysis of Muon Measurements from Nine Air Shower Experiments

    Over the last two decades, various experiments have measured muon densities in extensive air showers over several orders of magnitude in primary energy. While some experiments observed differences in the muon densities between simulated and experimentally measured air showers, others reported no discrepancies. We will present an update of the meta-analysis of muon measurements from nine air shower experiments, covering shower energies between a few PeV and tens of EeV and muon threshold energies from a few 100 MeV to about 10GeV. In order to compare measurements from different experiments, their energy scale was cross-calibrated and the experimental data has been compared using a universal reference scale based on air shower simulations. Above 10 PeV, we find a muon excess with respect to simulations for all hadronic interaction models, which is increasing with shower energy. For EPOS-LHC and QGSJet-II.04 the significance of the slope of the increase is analyzed in detail under different assumptions of the individual experimental uncertainties

    Multimessenger observations of a flaring blazar coincident with high-energy neutrino IceCube-170922A

    Previous detections of individual astrophysical sources of neutrinos are limited to the Sun and the supernova 1987A, whereas the origins of the diffuse flux of high-energy cosmic neutrinos remain unidentified. On 22 September 2017, we detected a high-energy neutrino, IceCube-170922A, with an energy of ~290 tera–electron volts. Its arrival direction was consistent with the location of a known γ-ray blazar, TXS 0506+056, observed to be in a flaring state. An extensive multiwavelength campaign followed, ranging from radio frequencies to γ-rays. These observations characterize the variability and energetics of the blazar and include the detection of TXS 0506+056 in very-high-energy γ-rays. This observation of a neutrino in spatial coincidence with a γ-ray–emitting blazar during an active phase suggests that blazars may be a source of high-energy neutrinos

    BACKGROUND: Surgical services are preparing to scale up in areas affected by COVID-19. This study aimed to evaluate the association between preoperative SARS-CoV-2 testing and postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing elective cancer surgery. METHODS: This international cohort study included adult patients undergoing elective surgery for cancer in areas affected by SARS-CoV-2 up to 19 April 2020. Patients suspected of SARS-CoV-2 infection before operation were excluded. The primary outcome measure was postoperative pulmonary complications at 30 days after surgery. Preoperative testing strategies were adjusted for confounding using mixed-effects models. RESULTS: Of 8784 patients (432 hospitals, 53 countries), 2303 patients (26.2 per cent) underwent preoperative testing: 1458 (16.6 per cent) had a swab test, 521 (5.9 per cent) CT only, and 324 (3.7 per cent) swab and CT. Pulmonary complications occurred in 3.9 per cent, whereas SARS-CoV-2 infection was confirmed in 2.6 per cent. After risk adjustment, having at least one negative preoperative nasopharyngeal swab test (adjusted odds ratio 0.68, 95 per cent confidence interval 0.68 to 0.98; P = 0.040) was associated with a lower rate of pulmonary complications. Swab testing was beneficial before major surgery and in areas with a high 14-day SARS-CoV-2 case notification rate, but not before minor surgery or in low-risk areas. To prevent one pulmonary complication, the number needed to swab test before major or minor surgery was 18 and 48 respectively in high-risk areas, and 73 and 387 in low-risk areas. CONCLUSION: Preoperative nasopharyngeal swab testing was beneficial before major surgery and in high SARS-CoV-2 risk areas. There was no proven benefit of swab testing before minor surgery in low-risk areas
