Children's working understanding of the knowledge gained from seeing and feeling
In three Experiments, (N = 48 3- to 4-year olds; 100 3- to 5-year olds; 54 4-yearolds), children who could see or feel a target toy, recognized when they had sufficient information to answer âWhich one is it?â and when they needed additional access. They were weaker at taking the informative modality of access when the choice was between
seeing more of a partially visible toy and feeling it; at doing so when the target was completely hidden; and at reporting seeing or feeling as their source of knowledge of the targetâs identity having experienced both. Working understanding of the knowledge gained from seeing and feeling (identifying the target efficiently) was not necessarily in advance of explicit understanding (reporting the informative source)

Electronic dynamic Hubbard model: exact diagonalization study
A model to describe electronic correlations in energy bands is considered.
The model is a generalization of the conventional Hubbard model that allows for
the fact that the wavefunction for two electrons occupying the same Wannier
orbital is different from the product of single electron wavefunctions. We
diagonalize the Hamiltonian exactly on a four-site cluster and study its
properties as function of band filling. The quasiparticle weight is found to
decrease and the quasiparticle effective mass to increase as the electronic
band filling increases, and spectral weight in one- and two-particle spectral
functions is transfered from low to high frequencies as the band filling
increases. Quasiparticles at the Fermi energy are found to be more 'dressed'
when the Fermi level is in the upper half of the band (hole carriers) than when
it is in the lower half of the band (electron carriers). The effective
interaction between carriers is found to be strongly dependent on band filling
becoming less repulsive as the band filling increases, and attractive near the
top of the band in certain parameter ranges. The effective interaction is most
attractive when the single hole carriers are most heavily dressed, and in the
parameter regime where the effective interaction is attractive, hole carriers
are found to 'undress', hence become more like electrons, when they pair. It is
proposed that these are generic properties of electronic energy bands in solids
that reflect a fundamental electron-hole asymmetry of condensed matter. The
relation of these results to the understanding of superconductivity in solids
is discussed.Comment: Small changes following referee's comment
The Intentional Use of Service Recovery Strategies to Influence Consumer Emotion, Cognition and Behaviour
Service recovery strategies have been identified as a critical factor in the success of. service organizations. This study develops a conceptual frame work to investigate how specific service recovery strategies influence the emotional, cognitive and negative behavioural responses of . consumers., as well as how emotion and cognition influence negative behavior. Understanding the impact of specific service recovery strategies will allow service providers' to more deliberately and intentionally engage in strategies that result in positive organizational outcomes. This study was conducted using a 2 x 2 between-subjects quasi-experimental design. The results suggest that service recovery has a significant impact on emotion, cognition and negative behavior. Similarly, satisfaction, negative emotion and positive emotion all influence negative behavior but distributive justice has no effect

Large-Area Heterostructures from Graphene and Encapsulated Colloidal Quantum Dots via the Langmuir-Blodgett Method
Computer-aided design of nano-filter construction using DNA self-assembly
Computer-aided design plays a fundamental role in both top-down and bottom-up nano-system fabrication. This paper presents a bottom-up nano-filter patterning process based on DNA self-assembly. In this study we designed a new method to construct fully designed nano-filters with the pores between 5 nm and 9 nm in diameter. Our calculations illustrated that by constructing such a nano-filter we would be able to separate many molecules
Measurement of the polarisation of W bosons produced with large transverse momentum in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV with the ATLAS experiment
This paper describes an analysis of the angular distribution of W->enu and
W->munu decays, using data from pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV recorded with
the ATLAS detector at the LHC in 2010, corresponding to an integrated
luminosity of about 35 pb^-1. Using the decay lepton transverse momentum and
the missing transverse energy, the W decay angular distribution projected onto
the transverse plane is obtained and analysed in terms of helicity fractions
f0, fL and fR over two ranges of W transverse momentum (ptw): 35 < ptw < 50 GeV
and ptw > 50 GeV. Good agreement is found with theoretical predictions. For ptw
> 50 GeV, the values of f0 and fL-fR, averaged over charge and lepton flavour,
are measured to be : f0 = 0.127 +/- 0.030 +/- 0.108 and fL-fR = 0.252 +/- 0.017
+/- 0.030, where the first uncertainties are statistical, and the second
include all systematic effects.Comment: 19 pages plus author list (34 pages total), 9 figures, 11 tables,
