    A new species of the cottid genus Triglops Reinhardt is described on the basis of 21 specimens collected in Aniva Bay, southern Sakhalin Island, Russia, and off Kitami, on the northern coast of Hokkaido, Japan, at depths of 73–117 m. Of the ten species of Triglops now recognized, the new species, Triglops dorothy, is most similar to T. pingeli Reinhardt, well known from the North Atlantic and North Pacific oceans and throughout coastal waters of the Arctic. The new species differs from T. pingeli in a combination of morphometric and meristic characters that includes most importantly the number of dorsolateral scales; the number of oblique, scaled dermal folds below the lateral line; and the number of gill rakers

    BFKL Physics in Jet Production at e+e- colliders

    Virtual photon scattering in e+e−e^+e^- collisions can result in events with the electron-positron pair at large rapidity separation with hadronic activity in between. The BFKL equation resums large logarithms that dominate the cross section for this process. We report here on a Monte Carlo method for solving the BFKL equation that allows kinematic constraints to be taken into account and show results for e+e−e^+e^- collisions.Comment: 3 pages, Latex, talk presented at the 2000 Meeting of the Division of Particles and Fields of the APS, Columbus, OH, August 9--12, 200

    Progress Towards a Generator for BFKL Physics

    Get PDF
    In certain regions of phase space in jet production, large logarithms can arise which are resummed by the BFKL equation. Linear colliders can potentially be excellent places to study BFKL effects in jet production. We discuss an approach to BFKL calculations which incorporates kinematic effects explicitly and can be implemented in an event generator.Comment: 4 pages including 2 figures, Latex, uses epsfig, aipproc.sty; talk presented at Linear Collider Workshop 2000, Fermilab, Batavia, IL, Oct. 24--28, 200

    ‘We kind of try to merge our own experience with the objectivity of the criteria’: The role of connoisseurship and tacit practice in undergraduate fine art assessment

    This article explores connoisseurship in the context of fine art undergraduate assessment practice. I interviewed twelve fine art lecturers in order to explore and unpack the concept of connoisseurship in relation to subjectivity, objectivity and tacit practice. Building on the work of Bourdieu (1973, 1977, 1986) and Shay (2003, 2005), both of whom problematize the view that subjectivity and objectivity are binary opposites, my research illustrates the ways that connoisseurship is underpinned by informed professional judgements located in communities of practice. Within this particular conception of connoisseurship, the lecturers’ expertise is co-constituted in communities of assessors through participation and engagement. Standards reside in communities of practice
