Early learning only counts when it's high quality
Quality counts in many things, but when you're talking about the development of a child in those crucial first five years, there's simply no substitute for it.
It's hard to overstate the significance of these early years. Research at Harvard University on brain development shines a light on this very importance, with numbers almost too incredible to believe.
In the first few years of life for example, more than one million new neural connections are formed every second. The process is driven by the interaction of genes and the child's experiences, and it's these early connections which build the brain architecture upon which all future learning depends.
The experiences provided to babies and young children all have an impact on how many neural connections are retained, and which ones are strongly developed, as they grow older. All experiences – positive and negative, stimulation and neglect – play a significant role in the future of every child.
These amazing facts and figures are just the tip of the iceberg. There's a whole world of research out there, and it all points to the one thing: the first five years of a child's life matter, a lot.
It's for all these reasons, and more, that we're so committed to raising the quality of early learning in Australia. And it's also for of these reasons that we developed one of our most valuable resources - the Goodstart Practice Guide
What is the Goodstart Practice Guide?
Getting the best outcomes for children comes down to two things: evidence and practice. The Practice Guide is our link between these two essential ingredients.
It was developed through 12 months of consulting with international experts, reviewing the evidence of what works best for children, and blending it with the on-the-ground experience of Goodstart educators.
The Practice Guide works with two important elements of Australia's national approach to education and care:
The National Quality Standard (NQS), which sets benchmarks in seven quality areas for all childcare providers
The Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), which charts Australia's national approach to quality teaching in the early years
You can learn more about the NQS and EYLF here, but in short they both combine to define what high quality in childcare looks like and how teachers and educators can deliver the best outcomes for children.
Why not just use the EYLF?
Being a framework the EYLF takes more of a broad brush than prescriptive approach, and that's where the Practice Guide comes in.
It gives our teachers and educators guidance in the best ways to implement the EYLF in their centres, while still offering flexibility for centres to adapt and implement in ways that work with their families and community.
With 644 centres across Australia, The Practice Guide helps us in clearly articulating what we see as necessary to provide a consistently high level of quality throughout our network of centres. And with one in five Australian children starting school with a developmental vulnerability, this is vital work and shows why it's so important that we get it right in early learning.
How do centres use the Practice Guide to benefit children?
We wanted to be sure the Practice Guide actually worked in centres, so before releasing it nationwide we had around 30 of our centres put it to the test in a 12 week trial.
Goodstart Blakeview was one of these centres, and as Centre Director Melissa Griffiths explains, using the Practice Guide as a planning tool for each age group has been invaluable.
Melissa and her team decided to use their nursery room as a test case within the centre, before implementing more widely in the other rooms.
"We figured if we could do it successfully with babies, we could do it in any room!" Melissa said.
"As we started implementing the guide, we quickly realised we'd been underestimating babies as being competent learners and the nursery room environment was reflective of this.
"The room's resources weren't challenging or accessible enough for babies. The guide helped us recognise that they needed to be exposed to items that weren't so plastic and structured.
"It prompted us to bring in more natural items and things with what we call 'loose parts', which means objects or materials that babies can arrange, sort or build. This encourages learning without the limitations of structured items like plastic toys."
Melissa and her team kept a video diary and photos to chart the progress of babies in the nursery room, and shared the results with families.
"When we started showing photos and video evidence to the families, they were amazed to see the progress and how competent these very young children were.
"The Practice Guide has made it easier to ensure we cover every area of learning possible and get the best outcomes we can for the children in our centre."

Within this estate there are over 50 villa plots available, mainly situated on the South East and North areas, enjoying absolute peace and tranquility. The estate also includes 60 built villas.
There are a variety of views including mountain, sea and river valley views, as well as different topography and orientation. The plots come in all shapes and sizes but usually cover a minimum area of at least 3,000m2 on which one can build on average 300m2 to 400m2 of living space. Where a larger house is required it can easily be built over adjoining plots. The permitted building volume of around 12% per plot is kept deliberately low to ensure that every property enjoys a good view as well as plenty of privacy. This contrasts with normal building volumes (typically at least 20% or more) in so many other developments where the average house covering around 500m2 is built on only 900m2 or 1000m2 of land. Villa plot prices vary from 140.000€ to just above 300.000€.
Once you have chosen your plot, you can build your villa to your exact requirements and have the luxury of decorating and furnishing it to your very own style and taste. There are two ways to build a house on a plot. You can either build it yourself or we can help you build it with our projects team. If you wish to build it yourself, we can recommend, at no extra cost and if you desire, reputable firms that we have contracted in the past and who already have plenty of experience building on the terrain of Benahavis.

The scenario being 1 week's data will be deleted and data older than 12 weeks should be deleted. 60 million data is being inserted and 60 million data is being deleted every week. Currently the insertion process inserts 5 million data in an hour. Can this be optimized further?
Since same index is being processed every time the replication factor cannot be 0 while insertion. I am currently using ES-hadoop jar (elasticsearch-hadoop-8.0.1.jar)

Citizens of Nevada, you can now relax. The Nevada National Security Site, home to tens of millions of cubic feet of low-level radioactive waste – and location of over a thousand Cold War nuclear weapons tests – is now being guarded by robots. The first of a planned trio of Mobile Detection Assessment Response Systems, or MDARS, is currently patrolling some of the more remote sections of the 1,360 square mile facility.
The camera-equipped MDARS can scoot around pre-determined paths on its own, alerting flesh-and-blood guards when it encounters an intruder or a broken lock. In development by the Navy and General Dynamics since the early 1990s, the diesel-fueled sentry bot can operate for up to 16 hours, and reach a top speed of 20 mph. The U.S. military has experimented with using the MDARS machines to patrol some of its Hawthorne Army Depot in Nevada. The bots have even been tested with automatic weapons – though I doubt that's the plan at the nuke site.
The Nevada complex, about 65 miles away from Las Vegas, is best known for its iconic nuclear weapons test-shots. Today, it boasts locations to conduct "controlled chemical releases in the open environment to simulate emissions from nuclear weapons production plants," according to the NNSS website. And the place hosts the "Big Explosive Experimental Facility" – BEEF, for short. It's "currently used for weapons physics experiments and shaped charge development."
Going robo at the Nevada site is a cost-cutting move, the National Nuclear Security Administration claims. Using the MDARS will save about "$6 million in infrastructure investments for equipment such as cameras, towers, lights, trenching and burial of cables to support towers and motion detection units to support protection of remote sensitive areas," according to an administration statement. "Additionally, the robots will result in an annual cost avoidance of $1 million in protective force expenditures and equipment maintenance." So rest easy, Nevadans. Not only are your mechanical guardians keeping you safe. They're making sure your tax dollars are well spent, too.

\section{Introduction}

Research on the nuclei far from the $\beta-$stability line, especially close
to the neutron drip line, is a hot topic in nuclear physics. These nuclei
with large ratio $N/Z$ compared to their isotopes may have new features: the
emergence of halo~\cite{Tanihata1985}, the disappearance of traditional
magic number and the generation of new magic number~\cite{Ozawa2000}, and so
on. One of the most interesting characteristics is the halo: one (or two)
weakly-bound valence nucleon(s) spatially extend(s) far beyond the nuclear
core by means of the quantum tunneling effect. This structure is ascribed to
an occupation of the $l=0$ or $l=1$ orbit by valence nucleon~\cit
{Sagawa1992}. The first confirmed halo structure appears in $^{11}$Li, which
is considered as two valence neutrons occupying the $2s_{1/2}$ orbit~\cit
{Meng1996}. Afterwards, more halo structures such as $s-$wave halo and $p-
wave halo, two-body halo and three-body halo, etc. were explored and
researched in experiments~\cite{Tanihata2013} and theories~\cite{Meng2015}.

In these researches on halo nuclei, $^{31}$Ne has received more attention
since it is located in a mixing region of normal and intruder shell
configurations. According to the shell model's scenarios, $^{31}$Ne ground
state should be a $^{30}$Ne core in its $0^{+}$ ground state with a
1f_{7/2} $ valence neutron. However, the calculations in Refs.~\cit
{Poves1994,Descouvemont1999} favored this valence neutron populating in the
2p_{3/2}$ intruder orbit. The orbit with low one-neutron separation energy (
S_{n}\simeq 0.33$ MeV~\cite{Audi2003}) supports a halo structure. The
one-neutron removal cross sections measured at RIKEN~\cite{Nakamura2009}
suggested that $^{31}$Ne is a halo nucleus. The data can be most easily
interpreted as the ground state spin parity being $3/2^{-}$ rather than
7/2^{-}$. Further experiment~\cite{Takechi2012} showed the interaction cross
sections of $^{31}$Ne are significantly greater than those of their
neighboring nuclides, which cannot be explained by the single-particle shell
model under the assumption that the valence neutron occupies the $1f_{7/2}$
orbit.

In order to clarify the ground state spin-parity, some theoretical models
were introduced for $^{31}$Ne. In Ref.~\cite{Horiuchi2010}, the Glauber
model was used to analyze the one-neutron removal cross sections. The result
suggests a strong $2p_{3/2}$ configuration in the $^{31}$Ne ground state. In
the framework of the particle-rotor model, Urata $et$ $al.$ applied the
Glauber theory to calculate the reaction cross sections, and found that the
difference of the reaction cross sections between $^{30}$Ne and $^{31}$Ne is
much larger for the configuration with $\beta _{2}=0.2$ than that with
\beta _{2}=0.55$, leading to a consistent description of one-neutron removal
cross section with $\beta _{2}=0.2$~\cite{Urata2011,Urata2012}. Based on a
quantitative analysis of the reaction cross sections of $^{28-32}$Ne by
^{12}$C at 240 MeV/nucleon using the double-folding model, Minomo $et$ $al$.
concluded that neutron-rich Ne isotopes are strongly deformed and $^{31}$Ne
has a halo structure with the spin parity $3/2^{-}$~\cit
{Minomo2011,Minomo2012}. Using the density obtained by antisymmetrized
molecular dynamics, the double folding model well reproduces the measured
interaction cross sections of $^{31}$Ne with the quadruple deformation
\beta_2\sim 0.4$~\cite{Sumi2012}.

In addition to the reaction cross section, the knowledge on the
single-particle resonances is critical to understand the halo structure of
exotic nuclei. In Ref.~\cite{Hamamoto2010}, the scattering phase shift
approach was applied to explore the single-particle resonances in $^{31}$Ne
in a deformed mean field. The observed large Coulomb breakup cross section
of $^{31}$Ne can be interpreted in terms of $p-$wave neutron halo together
with the deformed core $^{30}$Ne. With the analytic continuation approach
for resonances, $^{31}$Ne is predicted to possess a $p-$orbit one-neutron
halo structure based on the criteria of a large matter radius, low
separation energy, and large population of a low$-l$ orbit~\cite{Zhang2014}.
The halo structure of $^{31}$Ne was also claimed from an occupation of the
weakly bound level 1/2[330] by valance neutron in the complex scaling
calculations~\cite{Liu2012}.

All these are inclined to think that $^{31}$Ne is a deformed halo nucleus
with the spin parity $3/2^{-}$. However, we don't know that the $3/2^{-}$
comes from the $2p_{3/2}$ or $1f_{7/2}$ orbit and whether it happens the
p-f $ inversion in $^{31}$Ne. Since the $2p_{3/2}$ and $1f_{7/2}$ orbits in
^{31}$Ne have positive energy, it is necessary to treat the resonant states.
The calculations in Ref.~\cite{Hamamoto2010} exposed the $1f_{7/2}$
resonance, but the $2p_{3/2}$ resonance is missed. Although more resonant
states are obtained in the complex scaling calculations~\cite{Liu2012}, the
2p_{3/2}$ resonance has not been discovered. The reason may be that the
2p_{3/2}$ state corresponds to a broad resonance, while broad resonance is
difficult to obtain in theory. Recently, we have developed a complex
momentum representation (CMR) method for resonances~\cite{li2016,Fang2017},
which is effective for not only narrow resonances but also broad resonances
with many advantages in comparison with some other methods~\cit
{li2016,Tian2017}.

In the present paper we apply the complex momentum representation method to
explore the resonant states in $^{31}$Ne. The missed $2p_{3/2}$ resonance is
obtained in accompanying with the $1f_{7/2}$ resonance. The $p-f$ inversion
is exposed clearly in the single particle levels. Moreover, we have
calculated the density distributions and the occupation probabilities of
major components, which support a $p-$wave halo nucleus for $^{31}$Ne. In
the following, we express the theoretical formalism in Sec. II. In Sec. III,
we present numerical details and results. A summary is collected in Sec. IV.

\section{Formalism}

To explore the resonances in $^{31}$Ne, we first present the theoretical
formalism of complex momentum representation method with the Hamiltonian as
\begin{equation}
H=T+V,  \label{Hamiltonian}
\end{equation
where $T$ is the kinetic operator and $V$ is the interaction potential. The
kinetic energy operator $T=p^{2}/2m$ with the reduced mass $m$ and momentum
\vec{p}=\hbar \vec{k}$ ($\vec{k}$ is the wavevector). Following Ref.~\cit
{Hamamoto2005}, the adopted interaction potential $V$ consists of three
parts
\begin{eqnarray}
&&V_{\text{cent}}(r)=V_{0}f(r),  \notag \\
&&V_{\text{def}}(\vec{r})=-\beta _{2}k\left( r\right) Y_{20}(\vartheta
,\varphi ),  \label{potential} \\
&&V_{\text{sl}}(r)=-4V_{0}\Lambda ^{2}\frac{1}{r}\frac{df\left( r\right) }{d
}(\vec{s}\cdot \vec{l}),  \notag
\end{eqnarray
wit
\begin{eqnarray*}
f(r) &=&\frac{1}{1+e^{\frac{r-R}{a}}}, \\
k(r) &=&V_{0}r\frac{df\left( r\right) }{dr}.
\end{eqnarray*
Here, $a$, $V_{0}$, and $R$ represent respectively the diffuseness, depth,
and range of the potential with $R=r_{0}A^{1/3}$, where $A$ is mass number
of a nucleus and $r_{0}=1.27$ fm. $\Lambda $ is the reduced Compton
wavelength of nucleon. The solutions of Eq.~(\ref{Hamiltonian}) include the
bound states, resonant states, and the continuum. The bound states can be
obtained by the conventional methods. In order to access the resonant
states, the momentum representation is adopted with the Schr\"{o}dinger
equation as
\begin{equation}
\int d\vec{k^{\prime }}\langle \vec{k}|H|\vec{k^{\prime }}\rangle \psi (\vec
k^{\prime }})=E\psi (\vec{k}),  \label{scheq}
\end{equation
where $\psi (\vec{k})$ is the momentum wavefunctions. For an axially
deformed system, the parity $\pi $ and the third component of total angular
momentum $m_{j}$ are good quantum numbers. Hence, we can expand the
wavefunctions as
\begin{equation}
\psi (\vec{k})=\psi _{m_{j}}(\vec{k})=\sum_{lj}f^{lj}(k)\phi
_{ljm_{j}}(\Omega _{k}),  \label{wavefunction}
\end{equation
where $f^{lj}(k)$ is the radial components of wavefunctions in momentum
representation with the quantum numbers of the orbital angular momentum and
total angular momentum $l$ and $j$. The angular part of wavefunctions is
represented as
\begin{equation}
\phi _{ljm_{j}}(\Omega _{k})=\sum_{m_{s}}\langle lm\frac{1}{2
m_{s}|jm_{j}\rangle Y_{lm}(\Omega _{k})\chi _{m_{s}},  \label{spin}
\end{equation
where $\chi _{m_{s}}$ is the spin wavefunction with the third component of
spin angular momentum $m_{s}$, and $Y_{lm}(\Omega _{k})$ is the spherical
harmonics in momentum space. Putting the wavefunctions (\ref{wavefunction})
into the equation (\ref{scheq}), the Schr\"{o}dinger equation becomes
\begin{eqnarray}
&&\frac{\hbar ^{2}k^{2}}{2M}f^{lj}(k)+\int k^{\prime }{}^{2}dk^{\prime
}V_{s}(l,j,k,k^{\prime })f^{lj}(k^{\prime })  \notag \\
&&-\beta _{2}\sum_{l^{\prime }j^{\prime }}\int k^{\prime }{}^{2}dk^{\prime
}V_{d}(l,j,l^{\prime },j^{\prime },m_{j},k,k^{\prime })f^{l^{\prime
}j^{\prime }}(k^{\prime })  \notag \\
&=&Ef^{lj}(k),  \label{inteq}
\end{eqnarray
wit
\begin{equation*}
V_{s}(l,j,k,k^{\prime })=\frac{2}{\pi }\int r^{2}dr[V_{\text{cent}}(r)+V_
\text{sl}}(r)]j_{l}(kr)j_{l}(k^{\prime }r),
\end{equation*
an
\begin{eqnarray*}
&&V_{d}(l,j,l^{\prime },j^{\prime },m_{j},k,k^{\prime }) \\
&=&i^{3l+l^{\prime }}\frac{2}{\pi }\int r^{2}drk\left( r\right)
j_{l}(kr)j_{l^{\prime }}(k^{\prime }r) \\
&&\cdot \sum_{m_{s}}\langle lm|Y_{20}(\Omega _{r})|l^{\prime }m\rangle
\langle lm\frac{1}{2}m_{s}|jm_{j}\rangle \langle l^{\prime }m\frac{1}{2
m_{s}|j^{\prime }m_{j}\rangle ,
\end{eqnarray*
where $j_{l}(kr)$ and $j_{l^{\prime }}(k^{\prime }r)$ are respectively the
spherical bessel functions of order $l$ and $l^{\prime }$. It is difficult
to solve the integral equation Eq.~(\ref{inteq}). For this reason, we
transform the integral into a sum over a finite set of points $k_{a}$ and
dk $ with a set of weights $w_{a}$. And then, the integral equation becomes
a matrix equation
\begin{eqnarray}
&&\frac{\hbar ^{2}k_{a}^{2}}{2M}f^{lj}(k_{a})
\sum_{b}w_{b}k_{b}^{2}V_{s}(l,j,k_{a},k_{b})f^{lj}(k_{b})  \notag \\
&&-\beta _{2}\sum_{l^{\prime }j^{\prime
}}\sum_{b}w_{b}k_{b}^{2}V_{d}(l,j,l^{\prime },j^{\prime
},m_{j},k_{a},k_{b})f^{l^{\prime }j^{\prime }}(k_{b})  \notag \\
&=&Ef^{lj}(k_{a}).  \label{sumeq}
\end{eqnarray
The Hamiltonian matrix in Eq.~(\ref{sumeq}) is not symmetrical. For
simplicity in computation, we symmetrize the Hamiltonian matrix by the
transformation
\begin{equation}
f(k_{a})=\mathbf{f}(k_{a})/\sqrt{w_{a}}k_{a}.  \label{sys}
\end{equation
Putting Eq.~(\ref{sys}) into Eq.~(\ref{sumeq}), we obtain a symmetric matrix
equation in the momentum representation as
\begin{eqnarray}
&&\frac{\hbar ^{2}k_{a}^{2}}{2M}\mathbf{f}^{lj}(k_{a})+\sum_{b}\sqrt
w_{a}w_{b}}k_{a}k_{b}V_{s}(l,j,k_{a},k_{b})\mathbf{f}^{lj}(k_{b})  \notag \\
&&-\beta _{2}\sum_{b}\sum_{l^{\prime }j^{\prime }}\sqrt{w_{a}w_{b}
k_{a}k_{b}V_{d}(l,j,l^{\prime },j^{\prime },m_{j},k_{a},k_{b})\mathbf{f
^{l^{\prime }j^{\prime }}(k_{b})  \notag \\
&=&E\mathbf{f}^{lj}(k_{a}).  \label{simeq}
\end{eqnarray
So far, to solve the Schr\"{o}dinger equation becomes an eigensolution
problem of the symmetric matrix. All the bound states and resonant states
can be acquired simultaneously by diagonalizing the Hamiltonian in Eq.~(\re
{simeq}). The diagonalization of the Hamiltonian matrix in Eq.~(\ref{simeq})
can give us the energies and wavefunctions in the momentum space. To obtain
the wavefunctions in the coordinate space, the following transformation is
adopted
\begin{equation}
\psi \left( \vec{r}\right) =\psi _{m_{j}}(\vec{r})=\frac{1}{\left( 2\pi
\right) ^{3/2}}\int d\vec{k}e^{i\vec{k}\cdot \vec{r}}\psi _{m_{j}}(\vec{k}).
\label{Rwavefunctions}
\end{equation
Assuming that the $\psi _{m_{j}}(\vec{r})$ holds the form
\begin{equation}
\psi _{m_{j}}(\vec{r})=\sum_{lj}f^{lj}(r)\phi _{ljm_{j}}(\Omega _{r}),
\end{equation
we can obtain the radial part of wavefunctions
\begin{equation}
f^{lj}(r)=i^{l}\sqrt{\frac{2}{\pi }}\sum_{a=1}^{N}\sqrt{w_{a}
k_{a}j_{l}(k_{a}r)\mathbf{f}^{lj}(k_{a}),
\end{equation
and the radial density distribution
\begin{equation}
\rho _{m_{j}}(r)=\sum_{lj}f^{lj\ast }(r)f^{lj}(r).
\end{equation}

\section{numerical details and results}

With the formalism represented above, we explore the single-particle
resonances in $^{31}$Ne in order to clarify the physical mechanism of $^{31}
Ne halo. Before starting the researches, we introduce numerical details. In
the present calculations, the coupled-channel method is adopted to solve the
equation of motion describing deformed nuclei, and the wavefunctions are
expanded with different channels labeled as $lj$. The sum over $lj$ in Eq.~
\ref{wavefunction}) is restricted to a limited range $N_c=8$. In Eq.~(\re
{inteq}), the momentum integration from zero to infinite is truncated to a
large enough $k_{max}=4.0$ fm$^{-1}$, and replaced by a sum using the
Gauss-Legendre quadrature with a finite grid number $N_l=120$. The choice of
these parameter values is enough to ensure the required precision.

\protect\pi}=1/2^{-}$ with $\protect\beta_{2}=0.2$ in complex momentum

rhombus, and magenta points represent the resonant states in four different
contours, respectively. The other is the continuum following the contours in
grey solid line.}
\end{figure}

\caption{(Color online) Radial density distributions as a function of the
coordinate $r$ for the single-particle states 1/2[110] and 1/2[310] with
\protect\beta_{2}$ = 0.2 and 3/2[321] with $\protect\beta_{2}$ = 0.5. The
left four lines belong to 1/2[110], the upper four lines on the right belong
to 3/2[321], and those in the lower belong to 1/2[310]. The four contours
are the same as those in Fig.~1.}
\end{figure}

With these parameters designed, we check the validity and applicability of
present calculations. The numerical results for the states $\Omega ^{\pi
}=1/2^{-}$ with the deformation $\beta _{2}=0.2$ are shown in Fig.~1, where
the four different contours are adopted in the momentum integration. The
resonant states are completely independent on the contours. With the contour
becomes deeper from the magenta color to the blue color and/or the contour
from left (red color) to right (green color), the resonant states always
stay at their original locations in the complex momentum plane. The resonant
state 1/2[301] is located outside the magenta and green contours. Hence, it
is necessary to select a large enough contour to expose all the resonant
states concerned.

In addition to the single particle energies, the wavefunctions are also
independent of contours. In Fig.~2, we have plotted the radial density
distributions as a function of the coordinate $r$ for the single-particle
states 1/2[110], 1/2[310], and 3/2[321]. The state 1/2[110] is deeply
bound over the range of deformation under consideration. The state 1/2[310]
locates at a resonant orbit with $\beta_2=0.2$. The state 3/2[321] is weakly bound
in the position of $\beta_2=0.5$. Whether the bound state, the resonant state, or the weakly bound state, the calculated density distributions with the four different contours
completely coincide together, which indicates the wavefunctions are
independent of contours. Compared with the bound state 1/2[110], the radial
density distributions for the resonant state 1/2[310] and the weakly bound
state 3/2[321] spatially extend in a larger range, which indicates that a
halo may be formed if a nucleon populates in the orbits.

and the other represent the resonant states.}

levels are marked by the solid line and dashed line, respectively.}
\end{figure}

As the resonant states are independent of the contours, we can select a
large enough contour to expose all the resonant states concerned. Using the
triangle contour with the four points $k=0$ fm$^{-1}$, $k=0.5-i0.6$ fm$^{-1}
, $k=1.0$ fm$^{-1}$, and $k=4.0$ fm$^{-1}$, these resonant states concerned
are obtained over the range of deformation under consideration. In Fig.~3,
we have presented the solutions of Eq.~(\ref{simeq}) for the states $\Omega
^{\pi }=1/2^{\pm },3/2^{\pm },\cdots ,9/2^{\pm }$ in several different
deformations. It is noticed that the positions of the resonant states in
complex momentum plane depend on the deformation $\beta _{2}$. When the
spherical symmetry is broken ($\beta _{2}\neq 0$), the states $2p_{3/2}$,
1f_{5/2}$, $1f_{7/2}$ and $1g_{7/2}$ are split into two, three, four, and
five resonant states, respectively. Similarly, the state $2d_{5/2}$ is split
into three resonant states. When $\beta _{2}=-0.1$, only the $5/2^{+}$ and
3/2^{+}$ states emerge in the complex momentum plane, while the $1/2^{+}$
state is beyond the range of contour. When $\beta _{2}=0.1$ and $\beta
_{2}=0.2$, only the $1/2^{+}$ and $3/2^{+}$ states appear in the complex
momentum plane, while the $5/2^{+}$ state lies outside of the contour. These
show that some resonances may move into the contour and some other
resonances may be removed from the contour with the change of deformation.

Making clear the dependence of the resonance on deformation, let's explore
the mechanism of deformation halo in $^{31}$Ne. The calculated
single-particle energies for all the bound and resonant states concerned are
shown in Fig.~4, where the bound (resonant) levels are marked by the solid
(dashed) line with the Nilsson labels on the line. The corresponding
spherical labels are marked in the position $\beta _{2}=0.0$. From Fig.~4,
it can be seen that the bound levels are the fully same as those in Refs.
\cite{Hamamoto2010,Liu2012}. For the resonant levels, only those with the
spherical labels $1f_{7/2}$ are obtained in the scattering phase shift
calculations~\cite{Hamamoto2010}. Although the more resonant levels
including those with the spherical labels $1f_{7/2}$, $1f_{5/2}$, and
1g_{9/2}$ are obtained in the complex scaled calculations~\cite{Liu2012},
these resonant levels with the spherical labels $2p_{3/2}$, $2p_{1/2}$, and
2d_{5/2}$ are still missed. Since the halo is mainly attributed to an
occupation of the orbit with lower angular momentum and separation energy by
valance nucleon, these resonant levels with the spherical labels $2p_{3/2}$,
$2p_{1/2}$, and $2d_{5/2}$ are more attractive. Unfortunately, these
resonant levels have not been obtained in the scattering phase shift
calculations and the complex scaling calculations. Furthermore, the levels
1/2[310] and 1/2[330] obtained in the scattering phase shift is
questionable. With the decrease of deformation from $\beta _{2}=0.6$ to
\beta _{2}=0.0$, the 1/2[310] level evolves from a bound state to a resonant
state. At $\beta _{2}=0.0$, the 1/2[310] level degenerates the $2p_{3/2}$
level rather than the $1f_{7/2}$ level. Over the range of deformation, the
1/2[330] level is always located in the resonant region, while it is
incorrectly connected to the level 1/2[310] in Ref.~\cite{Hamamoto2010}.
With these resonant levels in the spherical labels $2p_{3/2}$, $2p_{1/2}$,
and $2d_{5/2}$ obtained, an inverted ordering of $p-f$ orbits is discovered
in comparison with the usual shell model prediction. As it happens the $p-f$
inversion, the $21$st neutron in $^{31}$Ne can occupy a $p-$orbit or that
with major $p-$component, which is the cause of the halo formed in $^{31}
Ne. Assuming that $^{31}$Ne is a prolate nucleus, the $21$st neutron may
occupy the levels 1/2[301], 1/2[310], 3/2[202], 3/2[321], and 1/2[211] in
the intervals of $0.0\leqslant \beta _{2}\leqslant 0.20$, $0.20\leqslant
\beta _{2}\leqslant 0.29$, $0.29\leqslant \beta _{2}\leqslant 0.40$,
0.40\leqslant \beta _{2}\leqslant 0.59$, and $\beta _{2}\geqslant 0.59$,
respectively. Which orbit is the most appropriate for $^{31}$Ne? The state
1/2[301] locates in the resonant level. If a nucleon occupies the level, its
density distribution can spatially extend far beyond the nuclear core.
However, there exists a large energy gap in the interval of $0.0\leqslant
\beta _{2}\leqslant 0.20$, which increases the difficulty of nucleon
occupying the orbit. According to the claim in Ref.~\cite{Sagawa1992}, the
halo structure is ascribed to an occupation of the $l=0$ or $l=1$ orbit by
valence nucleon with lower separation energy. From this view, the
appropriate orbit may be 1/2[310] in the interval of $0.20\leqslant \beta
_{2}\leqslant 0.29$ or 3/2[321] in the interval $0.40\leqslant \beta
_{2}\leqslant 0.59$. The result agrees with the calculations in Ref.~\cite{Urata2011,Urata2012}, where the ground state of $^{31}$Ne is predicted with the configurations of $I^{\pi}= 3/2^{-}$ at $\beta
_{2}=0.2$ or $0.55$. In Ref.~\cit
{Minomo2011,Minomo2012}, Minomo $et$ $al$.
concluded that neutron-rich Ne isotopes are strongly deformed and $^{31}$Ne
has a halo structure with the spin parity $3/2^{-}$. The similar conclusion is obtained in Ref.~\cite{Sumi2012} for $^{31}$Ne with the deformation $\beta _{2}\sim 0.4$. In addition, an appropriate
configuration 3/2[321] is predicted with the deformation in the interval $0.40<\beta _{2}<0.59
$ for the ground state of $^{31}$Ne in Ref.~\cite{Hamamoto2010}. These conclusions are in agreement with our calculations with the inclination of the orbit 3/2[321] in large deformation.

\end{figure}

In order to identify the most likely orbit in favor of halo in $^{31}$Ne, we
compare the occupation probabilities of major components in the levels
1/2[310] and 3/2[321]. The calculated occupation probabilities of major
components as a function of deformation $\beta _{2}$ are plotted in Fig.~5
for the level 1/2[310]. Over the range of deformation, the occupation
probabilities of the four components $p_{3/2}$, $f_{7/2}$, $p_{1/2}$, and
f_{5/2}$ are observable, while the other components are negligible. At
\beta _{2}=0.0$, the level 1/2[310] degenerates the spherical configuration
2p_{3/2}$, which supports the result from the level 1/2[310] in Fig.~4. With
the increase of deformation, the occupation probability of $p_{3/2}$
decreases, while the occupation probabilities of $f_{7/2}$, $p_{1/2}$, and
f_{5/2}$ increase. Even so, the wavefunction of the level 1/2[310] is mostly
constituted by the $p_{3/2}$ configuration. Within the range of deformation,
the occupation probability of $p_{3/2}$ is over 64\%, which indicates that
the level 1/2[310] satisfies the condition of halo formation and the halo in
$^{31}$Ne may come from an occupation of the orbit 1/2[310] by valance
neutron.

components in the 3/2[321] level, where the black solid line, red dashed
line, blue dotted line, and green dash-dotted line represent the $f_{7/2}$,
p_{3/2}$, $f_{5/2}$, and $h_{11/2}$ components, respectively.}
\end{figure}

For comparison, we have also plotted the occupation probabilities of major
components in the wavefunction of the level 3/2[321] as a function of $\beta
_{2}$ in Fig.~6. Similar to the level 1/2[310], only the four components
f_{7/2}$, $p_{3/2}$, $f_{5/2}$, and $h_{11/2}$ are observable, while the
other components are insignificant. At $\beta _{2}=0$, the level 3/2[321]
degenerates the spherical configuration $1f_{7/2}$, which agrees the case in
Fig.~4. With the increase of deformation from $\beta _{2}=0$ to $\beta
_{2}=0.26$, the occupation probability of $f_{7/2}$ decreases, while the
occupation probabilities of $p_{3/2}$, $f_{5/2}$, and $h_{11/2}$ increase.
Further increasing the deformation, the occupation probabilities of $f_{7/2}$
and $p_{3/2}$ do almost unchange and the wavefunction of the level 3/2[321]
is mostly constituted by the $f_{7/2}$ and $p_{3/2}$ configurations.
As the
occupation probability of $p_{3/2}$ in the wavefunction of the level
3/2[321] is over 44\%, the level 3/2[321] also supports the formation of
halo. However, the energy gap between the levels 3/2[321] and 1/2[211] is
considerably large in the interval $0.40\leqslant \beta _{2}\leqslant 0.50$.
If nuclear deformation is larger than $\beta _{2}=0.50$, the energy gap
between the levels 3/2[321] and 1/2[211] becomes small, the halo in $^{31}
Ne is most likely derived from an occupation of the orbit 3/2[321] by a
valance neutron. Nevertheless, the large contamination of
$f$-wave in 3/2[321] implies that the core excited component $
^{30}$Ne(2$^+$)$\otimes$ f$_{7/2}$ is non-negligible, if the ground state is
3/2$^-$.
\begin{figure}[tph]
\centerin
\includegraphics[width=8.cm]{Fig7width.eps}\centering
\caption{(Color online) The same as Fig.~4, but for the width of resonant
states.}
\end{figure}

With the knowledge on the energy levels (positions) of resonant states,
let's figure out the widths of resonant states. The widths as a function of
deformation $\beta _{2}$ is drawn in the upper panel in Fig.~7 for all the
resonant states concerned. The lower panel in Fig.~7 is a close-up of the
widths for these resonant states near zero energy surface. For simplicity in
comparison, the marks of the widths in Fig.~7 are the fully same as those of
the levels shown in Fig.~4. Similar to the levels, there exists the shell
structure in the widths. It is different where appears the energy gap. For
the levels, a large energy gap appears between the states $1f_{7/2}$ and
2d_{5/2}$ at $\beta _{2}=0.0$. However for the widths, an unexpected gap
appears between the states $2d_{5/2}$ and $2p_{1/2}$ at $\beta _{2}=0.0$. In
addition, the order of the widths is different from that of the levels. The
resonant level $2d_{5/2}$ lies between the levels $1f_{7/2}$ and $2p_{3/2}$,
while the corresponding width is located above them. Due to the lower
centrifugal barrier, the width of a $p-$state is usually greater than that
of a $f-$state, which can be seen in the lower panel of Fig.~7. With the
increase of deformation, the level $2p_{3/2}$ is split into two levels
1/2[310] and 3/2[301]. The resonant state 1/2[310] becomes more stable with
the increase of deformation from $\beta _{2}=0.0$, while the states 3/2[301]
and 1/2[301] become more unstable. Hence, it is relatively easy to form halo
in the resonant state 1/2[310] in $^{31}$Ne. Similar phenomena also emerge
in the $f-$state. With the increase of deformation, the level $1f_{7/2}$ is
split into four levels 1/2[330], 3/2[321], 5/2[312], and 7/2[303]. The
resonant state 3/2[321] becomes more unstable with the increase of
deformation from $\beta _{2}=0.0$ to $\beta _{2}=0.2$. Further increasing
deformation, the resonant state 3/2[321] becomes more stable, which implies
that the state 3/2[321] also supports the formation of halo in $^{31}$Ne in
the region of large deformation. The conclusion is in agreement with that
obtained in terms of the single-particle levels. All these show that $^{31}
Ne is a halo nucleus formed by $p_{3/2}$ configuration.

In order to provide the possible observables for experiment, in Fig.~8 we have plotted the radial-momentum probability distributions for the state 1/2[310] with $\beta_2=0.25$ and 3/2[321] with $\beta_2=0.5$. The remarkable differences in the position and height of peak and the range of radial-momentum probability distributions can be identified by the knock-out reaction, which is helpful to distinguish the two orbits.

\section{Summary}

In summary, the complex momentum representation method is used to explore
the physical mechanism of deformed halo in $^{31}$Ne with the theoretical
formalism presented. The Schr\"{o}dinger equation describing deformed nuclei
is processed into a set of coupled differential equations by the
coupled-channel method. This set of coupled differential equations is solved
using the complex momentum representation technique, which makes the
solutions of the Schr\"{o}dinger equation become the diagonalization of a
matrix, and the bound and resonant states are treated on the equaling
footing. The dependence of the calculations on the unphysical parameters is
checked, satisfactory result is obtained.

The single-particle resonant states in $^{31}$Ne are explored. Not only the
narrow resonance $1f_{7/2}$ but also the broad resonances $2p_{3/2}$,
2p_{1/2}$, and $2d_{5/2}$, which are missed in the scattering phase shift
and the complex scaling calculations, are obtained. As these broad
resonances come into sight, the $p-f$ inversion is seen clearly in the
single-particle levels. As a result, the $21$st neutron in $^{31}$Ne can
occupy a $p-$orbit or that with major $p-$component, which is the cause of
the halo formed in $^{31}$Ne. From the position and energy gap, it can be
judged that two appropriate Nilsson orbits are 1/2[310] in the interval of
0.20\leqslant \beta _{2}\leqslant 0.29$ and 3/2[321] in the interval
0.40\leqslant \beta _{2}\leqslant 0.59$. Over the range of deformation, the
wavefunction of the level 1/2[310] is mainly constituted by the $p_{3/2}$
configuration, which supports the formation of halo. When $\beta
_{2}\geqslant 0.40$, the occupation probability of $p_{3/2}$ in the state
3/2[321] is over 44\%, which also supports the formation of halo. All these
show that $^{31}$Ne is a halo nucleus formed by the $p_{3/2}$ configuration.
This conclusion is also supported by the calculated widths.

Do Press Releases still work for SEO?
In light of the recent Google Panda and Penguin algorithm updates, many people are wondering whether press releases can still help optimize a website's search engine ranking. Google is determined to squash any quick SEO tricks and it appears irrelevant press releases with bad backlinks are on the top of their hit list.
SEO professionals have been relying on press releases since the beginning of internet marketing. Online marketers would develop a compelling press release, distribute it through as many channels as possible, and then wait for their site to pick up thousands of backlinks. The press releases would contain an overabundance of specific keywords that would also help boost their search engine ranking.
Many marketing professionals still strongly believe that press releases are a great way to quickly establish numerous authoritative links back to a website as a method of supporting their SEO efforts. The success of press releases, however, depends on why and how they are created. Problems arise when the press release distribution model is overused to the point of exploitation or harassment.
The internet is filled with an abundance of information and advertorials. Mass press releases created purely to improve SEO were becoming such a nuisance Google felt it was necessary to tighten up the guidelines. This does not mean it will give legitimate press releases a poor ranking.
Google's updates were meant to control the online chaos and bring value back to the content in press releases. A press release should be a newsworthy story that readers on that particular website would be interested in learning more about. It should be well-written and it should never sound like an advertorial.
Press releases are great tools for announcing new developments in a company or celebrating special milestones. They should provide new information to the reader and also be relevant to your product, service, or business. Always remember that a press release is not the same as a blog. It must have a specific message that needs to be conveyed.
A good tip for ensuring your press release works to enhance your SEO efforts is customizing it to each different distribution channel. For example, if you run an accounting firm and your press release is being written to announce a new addition to your firm, you can create several versions of the press release to suit different types of channels.
If you are sending the press release to a corporate business website, it should address the accountant's business finance background. If it is being sent to sites that offer personal tax advice, the press release could discuss the accountant's tax preparation experience. It is also a good idea to send the press release to only reputable channels that are related to your field.
All press releases should be a professionally written and informative article that would appeal to bloggers, journalists, and a website's target audience. This simple strategy will prove that press releases still work for SEO despite the Google algorithm updates.
