The Suffield Fault, Stark County, Ohio
Author Institution: Department of Geology, The College of WoosterA ground-derived total intensity magnetic map of the Suffield fault, a western extension of the Transylvania fault zone, suggests a fault with a southwest dip of 80° or greater. Displacement history is uncertain, but may involve significant right-lateral wrenching at the time of early fault development. Subsequent movements may include normal faulting. Although principal fault movement is Permo- Pennsylvanian, displacement at the level of the Precambrian surface, inferred from the magnetic map, suggests significant Cambro-Ordovician faulting. Subsurface distribution patterns of Silurian to Mississippian units define minor syndepositional fault movements during accumulation of the Silurian Salina salts and again during deposition of the Mississippian Berea sands
Root to Kellerer
We revisit Kellerer's Theorem, that is, we show that for a family of real
probability distributions which increases in convex
order there exists a Markov martingale s.t.\ .
To establish the result, we observe that the set of martingale measures with
given marginals carries a natural compact Polish topology. Based on a
particular property of the martingale coupling associated to Root's embedding
this allows for a relatively concise proof of Kellerer's theorem.
We emphasize that many of our arguments are borrowed from Kellerer
\cite{Ke72}, Lowther \cite{Lo07}, and Hirsch-Roynette-Profeta-Yor
\cite{HiPr11,HiRo12}.Comment: 8 pages, 1 figur
Infrared Behaviour of Systems With Goldstone Bosons
We develop various complementary concepts and techniques for handling quantum
fluctuations of Goldstone bosons.We emphasise that one of the consequences of
the masslessness of Goldstone bosons is that the longitudinal fluctuations also
have a diverging susceptibility characterised by an anomalous dimension
in space-time dimensions .In these fluctuations diverge
logarithmically in the infrared region.We show the generality of this
phenomenon by providing three arguments based on i). Renormalization group
flows, ii). Ward identities, and iii). Schwinger-Dyson equations.We obtain an
explicit form for the generating functional of one-particle irreducible
vertices of the O(N) (non)--linear --models in the leading 1/N
approximation.We show that this incorporates all infrared behaviour correctly
both in linear and non-linear -- models. Our techniques provide an
alternative to chiral perturbation theory.Some consequences are discussed
briefly.Comment: 28 pages,2 Figs, a new section on some universal features of

Three-Dimensional Quantum Percolation Studied by Level Statistics
Three-dimensional quantum percolation problems are studied by analyzing
energy level statistics of electrons on maximally connected percolating
clusters. The quantum percolation threshold \pq, which is larger than the
classical percolation threshold \pc, becomes smaller when magnetic fields are
applied, i.e., \pq(B=0)>\pq(B\ne 0)>\pc. The critical exponents are found to
be consistent with the recently obtained values of the Anderson model,
supporting the conjecture that the quantum percolation is classified onto the
same universality classes of the Anderson transition. Novel critical level
statistics at the percolation threshold is also reported.Comment: to appear in the May issue of J. Phys. Soc. Jp
Dallas with balls: televized sport, soap opera and male and female pleasures
Two of the most popular of television genres, soap opera and sports coverage have been very much differentiated along gender lines in terms of their audiences. Soap opera has been regarded very much as a 'gynocentric' genre with a large female viewing audience while the audiences for television sport have been predominantly male. Gender differentiation between the genres has had implications for the popular image of each. Soap opera has been perceived as inferior; as mere fantasy and escapism for women while television sports has been perceived as a legitimate, even edifying experience for men.
In this article the authors challenge the view that soap opera and television sport are radically different and argue that they are, in fact, very similar in a number of significant ways. They suggest that both genres invoke similar structures of feeling and sensibility in their respective audiences and that television sport is a 'male soap opera'. They consider the ways in which the viewing context of each genre is related to domestic life and leisure, the ways in which the textual structure and conventions of each genre invoke emotional identification, and finally, the ways in which both genres re-affirm gender identities
Measurement of the Pion Form Factor in the Energy Range 1.04-1.38 GeV with the CMD-2 Detector
The cross section for the process is measured in the
c.m. energy range 1.04-1.38 GeV from 995 000 selected collinear events
including 860000 events, 82000 events, and 33000
events. The systematic and statistical errors of measuring the
pion form factor are equal to 1.2-4.2 and 5-13%, respectively.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figure
