Experiential cartography and the significance of âuntranslatableâ words
Mainstream psychology can be regarded as largely Western-centric, with its concepts and priorities biased towards Western ways of thinking and understanding. Consequently, the field would benefit from greater cross-cultural awareness and engagement. To that end, this article offers one means of engagement, the study of âuntranslatableâ words (i.e., terms without an exact equivalent in another language, in our case English). A key function of language is that it offers a âmapâ that allows us to understand and navigate the world. In that respect, such words point to cultural variation in the maps we use, and even to variation in the actual territory mapped. The paper concludes with suggestions for why and how psychology could benefit from engaging with such words
Population of Merging Compact Binaries Inferred Using Gravitational Waves through GWTC-3
We report on the population properties of compact binary mergers inferred from gravitational-wave observations of these systems during the first three LIGO-Virgo observing runs. The Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog 3 (GWTC-3) contains signals consistent with three classes of binary mergers: binary black hole, binary neutron star, and neutron star-black hole mergers. We infer the binary neutron star merger rate to be between 10 and 1700 Gpc-3 yr-1 and the neutron star-black hole merger rate to be between 7.8 and 140 Gpc-3 yr-1, assuming a constant rate density in the comoving frame and taking the union of 90% credible intervals for methods used in this work. We infer the binary black hole merger rate, allowing for evolution with redshift, to be between 17.9 and 44 Gpc-3 yr-1 at a fiducial redshift (z=0.2). The rate of binary black hole mergers is observed to increase with redshift at a rate proportional to (1+z)Îş with Îş=2.9-1.8+1.7 for zâ˛1. Using both binary neutron star and neutron star-black hole binaries, we obtain a broad, relatively flat neutron star mass distribution extending from 1.2-0.2+0.1 to 2.0-0.3+0.3Mâ. We confidently determine that the merger rate as a function of mass sharply declines after the expected maximum neutron star mass, but cannot yet confirm or rule out the existence of a lower mass gap between neutron stars and black holes. We also find the binary black hole mass distribution has localized over- and underdensities relative to a power-law distribution, with peaks emerging at chirp masses of 8.3-0.5+0.3 and 27.9-1.8+1.9Mâ. While we continue to find that the mass distribution of a binary's more massive component strongly decreases as a function of primary mass, we observe no evidence of a strongly suppressed merger rate above approximately 60Mâ, which would indicate the presence of a upper mass gap. Observed black hole spins are small, with half of spin magnitudes below Ďiâ0.25. While the majority of spins are preferentially aligned with the orbital angular momentum, we infer evidence of antialigned spins among the binary population. We observe an increase in spin magnitude for systems with more unequal-mass ratio. We also observe evidence of misalignment of spins relative to the orbital angular momentum
Search of the early O3 LIGO data for continuous gravitational waves from the Cassiopeia A and Vela Jr. supernova remnants
partially_open1412sĂŹWe present directed searches for continuous gravitational waves from the neutron stars in the Cassiopeia A (Cas A) and Vela Jr. supernova remnants. We carry out the searches in the LIGO detector data from the first six months of the third Advanced LIGO and Virgo observing run using the weave semicoherent method, which sums matched-filter detection-statistic values over many time segments spanning the observation period. No gravitational wave signal is detected in the search band of 20â976 Hz for assumed source ages greater than 300 years for Cas A and greater than 700 years for Vela Jr. Estimates from simulated continuous wave signals indicate we achieve the most sensitive results to date across the explored parameter space volume, probing to strain magnitudes as low as
âź6.3Ă10^â26 for Cas A and âź5.6Ă10^â26 for Vela Jr. at frequencies near 166 Hz at 95% efficiency.openAbbott, R.; Abbott, T.âD.; Acernese, F.; Ackley, K.; Adams, C.; Adhikari, N.; Adhikari, R.âX.; Adya, V.âB.; Affeldt, C.; Agarwal, D.; Agathos, M.; Agatsuma, K.; Aggarwal, N.; Aguiar, O.âD.; Aiello, L.; Ain, A.; Ajith, P.; Albanesi, S.; Allocca, A.; Altin, P.âA.; Amato, A.; Anand, C.; Anand, S.; Ananyeva, A.; Anderson, S.âB.; Anderson, W.âG.; Andrade, T.; Andres, N.; AndriÄ, T.; Angelova, S.âV.; Ansoldi, S.; Antelis, J.âM.; Antier, S.; Appert, S.; Arai, K.; Araya, M.âC.; Areeda, J.âS.; Arène, M.; Arnaud, N.; Aronson, S.âM.; Arun, K.âG.; Asali, Y.; Ashton, G.; Assiduo, M.; Aston, S.âM.; Astone, P.; Aubin, F.; Austin, C.; Babak, S.; Badaracco, F.; Bader, M.âK.âM.; Badger, C.; Bae, S.; Baer, A.âM.; Bagnasco, S.; Bai, Y.; Baird, J.; Ball, M.; Ballardin, G.; Ballmer, S.âW.; Balsamo, A.; Baltus, G.; Banagiri, S.; Bankar, D.; Barayoga, J.âC.; Barbieri, C.; Barish, B.âC.; Barker, D.; Barneo, P.; Barone, F.; Barr, B.; Barsotti, L.; Barsuglia, M.; Barta, D.; Bartlett, J.; Barton, M.âA.; Bartos, I.; Bassiri, R.; Basti, A.; Bawaj, M.; Bayley, J.âC.; Baylor, A.âC.; Bazzan, M.; BĂŠcsy, B.; Bedakihale, V.âM.; Bejger, M.; Belahcene, I.; Benedetto, V.; Beniwal, D.; Bennett, T.âF.; Bentley, J.âD.; BenYaala, M.; Bergamin, F.; Berger, B.âK.; Bernuzzi, S.; Bersanetti, D.; Bertolini, A.; Betzwieser, J.; Beveridge, D.; Bhandare, R.; Bhardwaj, U.; Bhattacharjee, D.; Bhaumik, S.; Bilenko, I.âA.; Billingsley, G.; Bini, S.; Birney, R.; Birnholtz, O.; Biscans, S.; Bischi, M.; Biscoveanu, S.; Bisht, A.; Biswas, B.; Bitossi, M.; Bizouard, M.-A.; Blackburn, J.âK.; Blair, C.âD.; Blair, D.âG.; Blair, R.âM.; Bobba, F.; Bode, N.; Boer, M.; Bogaert, G.; Boldrini, M.; Bonavena, L.âD.; Bondu, F.; Bonilla, E.; Bonnand, R.; Booker, P.; Boom, B.âA.; Bork, R.; Boschi, V.; Bose, N.; Bose, S.; Bossilkov, V.; Boudart, V.; Bouffanais, Y.; Bozzi, A.; Bradaschia, C.; Brady, P.âR.; Bramley, A.; Branch, A.; Branchesi, M.; Brau, J.âE.; Breschi, M.; Briant, T.; Briggs, J.âH.; Brillet, A.; Brinkmann, M.; Brockill, P.; Brooks, A.âF.; Brooks, J.; Brown, D.âD.; Brunett, S.; Bruno, G.; Bruntz, R.; Bryant, J.; Bulik, T.; Bulten, H.âJ.; Buonanno, A.; Buscicchio, R.; Buskulic, D.; Buy, C.; Byer, R.âL.; Cadonati, L.; Cagnoli, G.; Cahillane, C.; Bustillo, J.

Search for anisotropic gravitational-wave backgrounds using data from Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo's first three observing runs
We report results from searches for anisotropic stochastic gravitational-wave
backgrounds using data from the first three observing runs of the Advanced LIGO
and Advanced Virgo detectors. For the first time, we include Virgo data in our
analysis and run our search with a new efficient pipeline called {\tt PyStoch}
on data folded over one sidereal day. We use gravitational-wave radiometry
(broadband and narrow band) to produce sky maps of stochastic
gravitational-wave backgrounds and to search for gravitational waves from point
sources. A spherical harmonic decomposition method is employed to look for
gravitational-wave emission from spatially-extended sources. Neither technique
found evidence of gravitational-wave signals. Hence we derive 95\%
confidence-level upper limit sky maps on the gravitational-wave energy flux
from broadband point sources, ranging from and on the
(normalized) gravitational-wave energy density spectrum from extended sources,
ranging from , depending on direction () and spectral index
(). These limits improve upon previous limits by factors of . We also set 95\% confidence level upper limits on the frequency-dependent
strain amplitudes of quasimonochromatic gravitational waves coming from three
interesting targets, Scorpius X-1, SN 1987A and the Galactic Center, with best
upper limits range from a factor of
improvement compared to previous stochastic radiometer searches.Comment: 23 Pages, 9 Figure
The population of merging compact binaries inferred using gravitational waves through GWTC-3
We report on the population properties of 76 compact binary mergers detected with gravitational waves below a false alarm rate of 1 per year through GWTC-3. The catalog contains three classes of binary mergers: BBH, BNS, and NSBH mergers. We infer the BNS merger rate to be between 10 and 1700 and the NSBH merger rate to be between 7.8 and 140 , assuming a constant rate density versus comoving volume and taking the union of 90% credible intervals for methods used in this work. Accounting for the BBH merger rate to evolve with redshift, we find the BBH merger rate to be between 17.9 and 44 at a fiducial redshift (z=0.2). We obtain a broad neutron star mass distribution extending from to . We can confidently identify a rapid decrease in merger rate versus component mass between neutron star-like masses and black-hole-like masses, but there is no evidence that the merger rate increases again before 10 . We also find the BBH mass distribution has localized over- and under-densities relative to a power law distribution. While we continue to find the mass distribution of a binary's more massive component strongly decreases as a function of primary mass, we observe no evidence of a strongly suppressed merger rate above . The rate of BBH mergers is observed to increase with redshift at a rate proportional to with for . Observed black hole spins are small, with half of spin magnitudes below . We observe evidence of negative aligned spins in the population, and an increase in spin magnitude for systems with more unequal mass ratio
Apocalyptic public health: exploring discourses of fatness in childhood âobesityâ policy
Recentâ obesityâ preventions focus heavily on children, widely regarded as the future of society. The National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP) is a ďŹagship government programme in England that annually measures the Body Mass Index (BMI) of children in Reception (aged 4â5) and Year 6 (aged 10 â11) in order to identify âat riskâ children and oďŹer advice to parents. Using Foucauldian discourse analysis this study explore show discourses within the programme construct fatness. The NCMP materials contain three key interrelated themes (concerning the hidden threat of âobesityâ, the burden of âobesityâ, and bodies that pose a greater risk) that combine to construct a âgrotesque discourseâ of apocalyptic public health. âObesityâ is constructed as a social and economic catastrophe where certain bodies pose a greater threat than others. We argue that this discourse has the potential to change health service policy in markedly regressive ways that will disproportionately impact working-class, Black, Asian, and mixed race families
Scholarship on Gender and Sport in Sex Roles and Beyond
In this paper we critically review how research on girls or women and sport has developed over the last 35Â years. We use a post-positivist lens to explore the content of the papers published in Sex Roles in the area of women, gender and sport and examine the shifts in how gender and sport have been conceptualized in these accounts. In order to initiate a broader dialogue about the scholarly analysis of gender and sport, we subsequently explore ideas inspired by feminist theorizing that have dominated/guided related research in other outlets over this time period but have received relatively little attention in papers published in Sex Roles. We conclude by briefly making suggestions for further research in this area
