A cross-cultural perspective on musealization: the museum’s reception by China and Japan in the second half of the nineteenth century
Historically museums emerged in the West and were subsequently taken up by people in other regions of the world, including the Far East, where the museum was adopted with alacrity by Japanese and Chinese intellectuals. This article explores how China and Japan imagined museums when they first encountered them in the West. It sketches how intellectuals in these two nations began to conduct ‘musealization’, and suggests that the museum in China and Japan was a product of appropriation of Western formats that was, however, deeply influenced by traditional attitudes to cultural preservation and display
Features and flaws of a contact interaction treatment of the kaon
Elastic and semileptonic transition form factors for the kaon and pion are
calculated using the leading-order in a global-symmetry-preserving truncation
of the Dyson-Schwinger equations and a momentum-independent form for the
associated kernels in the gap and Bethe-Salpeter equations. The computed form
factors are compared both with those obtained using the same truncation but an
interaction that preserves the one-loop renormalisation-group behaviour of QCD
and with data. The comparisons show that: in connection with observables
revealed by probes with |Q^2|<~ M^2, where M~0.4GeV is an infrared value of the
dressed-quark mass, results obtained using a symmetry-preserving regularisation
of the contact-interaction are not realistically distinguishable from those
produced by more sophisticated kernels; and available data on kaon form factors
do not extend into the domain whereupon one could distinguish between the
interactions. The situation is different if one includes the domain Q^2>M^2.
Thereupon, a fully consistent treatment of the contact interaction produces
form factors that are typically harder than those obtained with QCD
renormalisation-group-improved kernels. Amongst other things also described are
a Ward identity for the inhomogeneous scalar vertex, similarity between the
charge distribution of a dressed-u-quark in the K^+ and that of the
dressed-u-quark in the pi^+, and reflections upon the point whereat one might
begin to see perturbative behaviour in the pion form factor. Interpolations of
the form factors are provided, which should assist in working to chart the
interaction between light-quarks by explicating the impact on hadron properties
of differing assumptions about the behaviour of the Bethe-Salpeter kernel.Comment: 17 pages, 9 figures, 4 table

The Study on In-City Capacity Affected by Pedestrian Crossing
Currently, the urban road traffic congestion is serious and the traffic accident is happening at a high frequency; thus it has not satisfied the travel needs of security and affects the quality of urban trips. In order to effectively relieve the confliction of people and motor vehicle, to make sure of the safety of pedestrians crossing the road, and to improve the capacity of urban roads, this passage focuses on studying the influence of pedestrians crossing the roads on the capacity of urban roads in three pedestrian crossing approaches including freely crossing the street, uncontrolled crossing of the pedestrian crosswalk, and controlled crossing of the pedestrian crosswalk. Firstly, it confirms the general formula of the road capacity when pedestrians are crossing the road based on three preassumptions, combined with the survey data, and then constructs the empirical mathematical model of pedestrian crossing on the capacity impact. Lastly, it takes the step of case calculation and simulation evaluation and calculates errors between them, finding that the error between the model calculation and software simulation is small. The efficiency of the model is validated and improved
Form factors of transition within the light-front quark models
In this paper, we calculate the vector, axial-vector and tensor form factors
of transition within the standard light-front~(SLF) and covariant
light-front~(CLF) quark models~(QMs). The self-consistency and Lorentz
covariance of CLF QM with two types of correspondence schemes are investigated.
The zero-mode effects and the spurious -dependent contributions to the
form factors of transition are analyzed. Employing a self-consistent
CLF QM, we present our numerical predictions for the vector, axial-vector and
tensor form factors of ~() induced , , , transitions and induced , , , transitions.
Finally, in order to test the obtained form factors, the semileptonic ~() and
decays are studied. It is expected that our
results for the form factors of transition can be applied further to
the relevant phenomenological studies of meson decays.Comment: 41 pages, 7figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with
