Pâ,ris, Isabelle,Petitjean, Patrick,Aubourg, É,ric,Myers, Adam D.,Streblyanska, Alina,Lyke, Brad W.,Anderson, Scott F.,Armengaud, É,ric,Bautista, Julian,Blanton, Michael R.,Blomqvist, Springer-Verlag 2018 Astronomy and astrophysics Vol.613 No.-

<P>We present the data release 14 Quasar catalog (DR14Q) from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV (SDSS-IV). This catalog includes all SDSS-IV/eBOSS objects that were spectroscopically targeted as quasar candidates and that are confirmed as quasars via a new automated procedure combined with a partial visual inspection of spectra, have luminosities <I>M</I>i [<I>z</I> = 2] < −20.5 (in a Λ CDM cosmology with <I>H</I>0 = 70 km s<SUP>−1</SUP> Mpc<SUP>−1</SUP>, Ω M =0.3, and Ω Λ = 0.7), and either display at least one emission line with a full width at half maximum larger than 500 km s<SUP>−1</SUP> or, if not, have interesting/complex absorption features. The catalog also includes previously spectroscopically-confirmed quasars from SDSS-I, II, and III. The catalog contains 526 356 quasars (144 046 are new discoveries since the beginning of SDSS-IV) detected over 9376 deg<SUP>2</SUP> (2044 deg<SUP>2</SUP> having new spectroscopic data available) with robust identification and redshift measured by a combination of principal component eigenspectra. The catalog is estimated to have about 0.5% contamination. Redshifts are provided for the Mg II emission line. The catalog identifies 21 877 broad absorption line quasars and lists their characteristics. For each object, the catalog presents five-band (<I>u</I>, <I>g</I>, <I>r</I>, <I>i</I>, <I>z</I>) CCD-based photometry with typical accuracy of 0.03 mag. The catalog also contains X-ray, ultraviolet, near-infrared, and radio emission properties of the quasars, when available, from other large-area surveys. The calibrated digital spectra, covering the wavelength region 3610-10 140 Å at a spectral resolution in the range 1300 < <I>R</I> < 2500, can be retrieved from the SDSS Science Archiver Server.</P>

THI의 의미론적 논법

Nguyen Duc Dan 조선대학교 국제문화연구원 2009 국제문화연구 Vol.2 No.1

After giving a brief review of the different ideas of the Vietnamese linguists about the word THI, the author presents his judgment about this word as the followings: 1. First as all, the word THI is a conjunction in the structure of the complex sentences which indicates the relationship between condition and result. This structure is a kind of cause - effect one which reflects structure of logic statement “a ⇒ b”. So, we could apply the inferences of prepositional logic to recognize the implication of the sentences which includes the word thi. The most useful inferences are: - The inference by Modus ponens (sufficient condition): (MP) ((x ⇒ y) & x) ⇒ y - The inference by Modus tollens (necessery condition): (MP) ((x ⇒ y) & ~y) ⇒ ~x - The inference by Hypothetical Syllogisms: (HS) ((x ⇒ y) & (y ⇒ z)) ⇒ (x ⇒ z) There is a specific inference in some cases of natural languages in general and Vietnamese language in particular: a sufficient condition may be used as a necessary one. Considering this inference as MV, we have: (MV) ((x ⇒ y) & ~x) ⇒ ~y There are modal inferences for MT and MV. That is: (MT₁) ((x ⇒ y) & muốn ~y) ⇒ đừng ~x / không nên x (MT₂) ((x ⇒ y) & cần ~y) ⇒ phải ~x / không thể x (MV₁) ((x ⇒ y) & muốn ~x) ⇒ đừng ~y / không nên y 2. As a follow-up to the inferences, author presents a general method to investigate the implications in the complex sentences which include the structure of “nếu …thì”. After that, with a series examples, the author demonstrates indirect speech acts of these complex sentences as follows: - Vow, promise: ‘Lạy ông bà, chúng con có biết cái ví tiền của ông mật ngang mũi dọc thế nào thì chúng con cú chết một đời cha ba đời con!’ (NCH). (We (I) swear to you, grandpa, grandma, if we knew anything about the money in your wallet, we (I) would die, our kids would die, and our grandkids would die). - Advice: ‘Nếu ngài không ra tranh cử thì còn ai nữa?’ (If you don't want to run for office, then who will?) - Forbiddance, intimidation: ‘Con mà lấy nó thì đừng bao giờ về nhà này nữa. (If you marry him, don't ever come back to this house). - Assessment, appraisement: She loves you unless the sun rises in the West // Giá Ba chăm học, anh ấy đã đậu đại học (If Ba had studied hard, he would have passed the examination to the university). - Affirmation: ‘Nhưng chẳng tin vào bùa thì còn biết làm gì nữa’ (CĐBT, NNT) If you don't believe in amulet what else? - Announcement: ‘Làm vậy thể nào anh cũng sẽ bị ngồi tù đấy' (If you do that, and then definitely you’ll go to jail). - Proposition, requirement: ‘Nếu cậu không giúp mình chuyện này thì đừng coi mình là bạn nữa.’ If you don’t help me this time, then don’t consider me as your best friend. - Refusal: Tôi giúp anh, sếp biết được thì tôi mất việc. (I could help you, but if the boss knew, I would loss my job). 3. The author uses the inferences MP, MT, MV for investigating the pragmatic implication of the pair utterances of conversation. This pragmatic implication “conceals” in the later utterance which includes the word THI and indicates indirect speech acts such as affirmation, assessment, announcement, refusal, advice… Examples: 1) - Can I park my car here? - Yes, if you want to pay a fine 2) - Why did you beat the young brother? - I didn’t beat him because he is good-mannered) - Sao không cho anh ấy mượn tiền? - Giá như anh ấy giúp đỡ những người khác thì tôi đã cho mượn rồi (- Why didn’t you lent the money to him? - If he had helped others, I would have lent the money to him.) 3) - Em không tin chồng em có bồ. Họa có đứa điên thì nó mới theo không anh ta. - Vậy à? Thế mà bây giờ có đứa đang điên đấy. - (I don’t believe my husband is having a girlfriend. Most likely, she is not too crazy to get involved with him for nothing. - Oh, really? Look, who is a crazy one right now?) 4. Idioms with the word THI In conversation, there are utterances expressing speech acts which become the particular language patterns. A first speech act leads to second speech act. Hence, this is a cause-effect relation. Step by step, these patterns become to idioms indicating a specific speech act even though it doesn’t contain specific content. There are some idioms with the word THI that indicate a specific speech act: ‘A thì cũng x’. This is a rejection, a refusal to accept a role or influence (and consequence) of A to make an appearance x. ‘Không A thì cũng B’. This is a assertion that affirms an object having the property A or B (that a few lower than A). “A thì có!”. This is an affirmation. In that A is affirmed and an implicit B (in previous utterance) is rejected. “y thì không”. This is an acceptance. In that, we are agreed with one’s opinion about x although we affirm y is the same as x. ‘A(x) thì A’. This accepts a suggesting to realize A. ‘A thì phải’: This is a predict A. 5. The word THI and operation of division of a set The concept of word THI considering as a operation of division of a set permits us to explain several phenomena in Vietnamese language related to the word thì. In addition, other functions of THI are investigated.

Exact wavefunctions for a time-dependent Coulomb potential

Menouar, S,Maamache, M,Saâ,di, Y,Choi, J R The Institute of Physics 2008 JOURNAL OF PHYSICS A-MATHEMATICAL AND THEORETICAL Vol.41 No.21

<P>The one-dimensional Schrödinger equation associated with a time-dependent Coulomb potential is studied. The invariant operator method (Lewis and Riesenfeld) and unitary transformation approach are employed to derive quantum solutions of the system. We obtain an ordinary second-order differential equation whose analytical exact solution has been unknown. It is confirmed that the form of this equation is similar to the radial Schrödinger equation for the hydrogen atom in a (arbitrary) strong magnetic field. The qualitative properties for the eigenstates spectrum are described separately for the different values of the parameter ω<SUB>0</SUB> appearing in the <I>x</I><SUP>2</SUP> term, <I>x</I> being the position, i.e., ω<SUB>0</SUB> > 0, ω<SUB>0</SUB> < 0 and ω<SUB>0</SUB> = 0. For the ω<SUB>0</SUB> = 0 case, the eigenvalue equation of invariant operator reduces to a solvable form and, consequently, we have provided exact eigenstates of the time-dependent Hamiltonian system.</P>

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Bi<SUB>2</SUB>TeO<SUB>5</SUB> has been obtained in polycrystalline form via solid state reaction and structurally characterized from both synchrotron and neutron powder diffraction data, enabling the precise determination of the atomic positions. The crystal structure is defined in the acentric <I>Amb</I>2 space group, containing three crystallographically unequivalent Bi atoms. The position of the stereochemically active electron lone pairs of both Bi<SUP>3+</SUP> and Te<SUP>4+</SUP> ions is inferred to be opposite to the strongly covalent BiO and TeO chemical bonds; the global electron polarization arises from the non-compensated Bi<SUP>3+</SUP> lone electron pairs. Additionally, from difference Fourier maps between synchrotron and neutron diffraction data (X-N technique) it was possible to observe experimental evidence of the lone electron pair for Bi<SUP>3+</SUP>.

Khảo sát ghi chép về mối quan hệ Việt – Trung trong ĐẠI VIỆT SỬ KÝ TOÀN THƯ 大越史記全書 (VIỆT NAM) và MINH THỰC LỤC 明實錄 (TRUNG QUN

베트남과 중국의 역사서에는 동질성을 지닌 사건들에 대한 기록이 많다. 본 논문에서는 베트남의 국학을 대표하는 최초사관들에 의해 만들어진 『大越史記全書』 (대월사기전서) 중에서 중국의 『명실록』에 들어 있는 두 나라의 관계사에 대한 동질적 기록을 발췌하여 서로 비교하였다. 그 결과 『명실록』은 『대월사기전서』에 비해 구체적으로 쓰여 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 텍스트의 내용과 그 텍스트의 시대적 배경에 따라 명나라와 대월 간의 외교 관계를 종합적으로 분석하자면 다음과 같은 해석이 가능하다. 첫째, 대월의 호계리가 내란(內亂) 진압을 위한 식량 지원을 해 달라는 명 조정의 요청에 완전히 순종하지 않고 서로 합의하면서 결국 4분의 1만 도와 줬다는 점에서 두 나라의 외교 관계가 평등한 편이라고 볼 수 있다. 둘째로 『대월사기전서』에 들어 있는 5만의 병력과 50마리의 코끼리에 대한 요청은 『명실록』에서 찾을 수 없는 기록이고 식량 수량에 대한 기록도 큰 차이가 난다는 점은 간과할 수 없는 의문점이 된다. 명 조정에서 대국으로써의 체면 때문에 일부러 언급하지 않았는가, 아니면 대월의 사관이 사실보다 지나치게 부풀렸는가에 대한 의문이 생기지 않을 수 없다. 또는 명나라의 사신들이 공무(公務)의 직책을 이용하여 개인적 욕심을 부려서 조정의 뜻에 어긋난 조치라고도 해석할 수 있다. 본문에서 명나라와 대월의 중요한 역사서들의 기록들을 발췌하여 공통점과 차이점을 분석하는 것을 목적으로 삼은 것은, 어느 측이 틀리고 옳다는 판단보다는 사료적 신뢰성을 찾아 베트남과 중국의 외교 관계 성격을 밝히고자 했기 때문이다. 이러한 관점으로 『명실록』과 『대월사기전서』에 나타난 베트남과 중국의 관계사와 전쟁 역사에 대한 많은 공통적 기록들을 발견하게 되었다. 이러한 기록들 간의 차이에 대한 원인은 당시 사관들이 국가주의, 민족주의, 이데올로기, 시대성 등과 같은 요소로부터 지배를 받으면서 사서를 편찬했기 때문일 것이다. 하나의 사건만으로는 명 왕조 시기의 베ㆍ중 관계의 특징을 밝히기는 쉽지 않지만, 본문에서 이러한 시도를 계속해야 동아시아문화권의 ‘문화 교류’의 역사에 대한 연구를 올바르게 할 수 있다는 제의를 하고자 한다. 우선 원천 텍스트 연구에 대해서 한 민족의 역사서인 『대월사기전서』이나 『명실록』의 편찬 과정에 두 나라의 사관들이 민족주의ㆍ국가주의ㆍ정치적 이데올로기ㆍ본국의 정치적 주장 등의 요소들에 영향을 받지 않을 수 없다는 것은 사실이다. 그러므로 이러한 자료들을 가치가 있는 사료로 활용하기 위해서 많은 자료들을 서로 비교하여, 외교적 관계사나 문화 교류의 관계사의 연구 영역을 넓힐 수 있다.
