## SNS Video Foil Monitor

**Summary:**
- 	**Two radiation hardened video camera systems with associated **
**	****image processing electronics will analyze the light emitted from **
**	****the primary and secondary stripping foils.**
**	****In addition, foil illumination by a lamp during the absence of beam **
**	****will allow visual inspection to confirm the foil’s mechanical integrity.**
**Status:**
- 	**Preliminary Design Stage**
**	****Investigating the possible information which can be derived from **
**	****the spectra of light emitted from the foils.**

**Senior Member Technical Staff**
**(505) 845-9565**

**Proliferation Analysis Using VxInsight**

## Problem: Data overloadSolution:  Provide an alternate way to view and explore large volumes of related data

**Why VxInsight?**

## VxInsight System Characteristics

**Runs on an SGI workstation using IRIX **
**Navigates Through 3D Landscape using mouse: pans, zooms, rotates**
**Displays in two styles:  island & wireframe**
**Labels  peaks dynamically by sampling words in fields**
**Displays trends over time **
**Runs SQL queries against underlying Oracle database; query hits light up on the landscape**
**Displays fields from individual records**

## Utility for Proliferation Analysis

**Proliferation Analysis:   Nuclear Science Landscape**
**Transaction Analysis: Visualizing Complex Relationships**

## Nuclear Proliferation Landscape

**Landscape created by cited/citing relationship**** **
**Nuclear-related subset of ISI physical sciences database**
**15,283 records, covering 1991-1995**
**Text Information Overlaid on Landscape**
**Two years of FBIS message data covering 1994-1996**
**	****(filtered for nuclear related articles)**
**RetrievalWare used to relate FBIS documents to ISI articles**
**11,682 FBIS articles added**

## Lessons Learned

**Medical analysts found the cited/citing relationship interesting**
**Nuclear technology analysts did not want data grouped by cited/citing**
**Mixing text-based similarity measures and cited/citing similarity measures produced confusing clusters**

## VisTA -- Visualizing Transactional Analysis

**Exploit known relationships in data for calculating similarity measures**
**Buyer/Seller**
**Products**
**Evaluate utility of various labeling schemes**
**Quickly deliver prototype system to get feedback from users**

## Lessons Learned

**Simple similarity measures produces easy-to-understand clusters**
**Until users are familiar with all the capabilities in VxInsight, they try to accomplish all analysis tasks through the similarity measures**

## Future Directions

**Applications**
**Ability to use data stored in any relational database**
**GUI interface  for user-configuration**
**Ability to run on NT platform**
**Research**
**What other types of related data could be usefully visualized?**
**As data gets dirtier can this tool compensate?**
**Can this tool be integrated into a suite of other visualization tools?**

## Community Manager Project

- Presented by
- Nelson R. Jacobsen CEO
- CPWI

- Prepared by CPWI.US

## Common Interest Communities	“CIC”

- 90 Percent of all new homes are built as planned communities -- condominiums cooperative townhouse and single family homeowner associations and 1 out of 6 Existing homes1.
- It would follow that Veterans that obtain a home loan are going to find that their choice of home stock is going to be in one of these CICs.
- 1. *U.S. Census publications, the American Housing Survey, IRS Statistics of Income Reports,*

- Prepared by CPWI.US

## Jobs in the CIC Industry	

- Property, real estate, and community association managers held about 293,000 jobs in 2002. Forty percent worked for real estate agents and brokers, lessors of real estate, or property management firms. Others worked for real estate development companies, government agencies that manage public buildings, and corporations with extensive holdings of commercial properties. Forty-six percent of property, real estate, and community association managers were self-employed2.
- Median annual earnings of salaried property, real estate, and community association managers were $36,880 in 2002. The middle 50 percent earned between $25,470 and $56,000 a year3. 2&3. U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics

- Prepared by CPWI.US

## Pathway to Community Management

- No trade group, or University has established a viable program to develop the skill needed to enter this job market.
- Since most current management companies are self employed, all trainings for new managers has to be post hiring and is very expensive and limited.

- Prepared by CPWI.US

## What needs to be done	

- Establish a nonprofit to work with the various trade group and Universities to facilitate the training of veteran in the basic of community management and work with large and small existing management companies to hire our Veterans for a life- long career in this industry.
- A portal  CommuntyManagerProject.org has been  started to address this issue and act as resource for all involved.

## Bank Stock Prices

- Discussion by:
- Philip E. Strahan
- Boston College
- September 2006

## Research Questions

*Furlong & Kwan*: What drives the level of bank stock prices (market-to-book)?
*Schuermann & Stiroh*: What drives variation in bank stock prices?

## What is correlated with the level of bank stock prices?

- Market trends
- Bank MTB rose in the 1990s
- Bank characteristics
- Core deposits (++)
- Efficiency = Revenues / Expenses (++)
- Non-interest income share (++, large banks)
- Loan shares (??)
- Log of assets (??)

## Strong claims

- “rebound in bank charter values suggests that ... banks remain special”
- “negative effect of size on relative charter value...would be consistent with policy measures having reduced market’s expectations for TBTF rescues...”
- “provision of core deposit services contributes to charter value ratios...”
- “the market apparently has seen the reliance on fee-based activities as a positive development”

## How do you interpret these regression?

- Bank size and stock prices (CV)
- TBTF banks will have high stock prices
- Large banks may be more or less efficient
- High CV banks will grow
- High CV banks will buy low CV banks
- High CV (e.g. Tobin’s Q > 1) will lead to capacity expansion in the industry

## How do you interpret these regression?

- Lending activity & stock prices
- Are C&I loan markets competitive
- Or, do banks with high CV avoid risky business loans?
- Non-interest income share
- Levels (MTB) v. returns
- Efficiency (revenue per $ of expenses)
- What makes banks have efficient?

## Suggestions for Furlong & Kwan

- Soft-pedal some claims
- Paper has no identification strategy to sort our casuality
- Decompose results into cross-sectional and time-series dimensions
- Between v. firm fixed effects results
- Report / discuss sample properties – e.g. how do you handle M&A?
- Cluster residuals at bank-level for more conservative statistical tests

## What is correlated with variation in bank stock prices?

- Market factor dominates
- Residual correlation remains, even with 9-factor model
- Bank returns more correlated to market than other firms
- Large bank betas >> small bank betas
- Residual correlation for large banks >> for small

## Questions

- What is the role of credit, interest rate and liquidity risks?
- Less true for small banks
- Estimate models with just credit, interest rate and liquidity factors
- Is residual cross-bank correlation large or small?

## Suggestions for Schuermann & Stiroh

- Focus on issue of systemic risk
- What happens to factor loadings during ‘events’?
- What happens to residual correlation across banks during events?
- Why are large bank returns so much more systematic?
- Incentives (exploit variation in TBTF over time)
- Clients (large v. small borrowers)
- Product difference (derivatives; off-balance sheet commitments; loan portfolios)

## Is MTB ratio (still) correlated with stock-market variation?

- Systematic (beta)
- Idiosyncratic
- Residual correlation (or, loading on bank-factor)

## Community Perspectives on Aviation and Land Use

- 30th Annual Airport Conference Hershey, Pennsylvania
- March 6-8, 2007
- Charnelle Hicks, AICPCHPlanning, Ltd.

## How Land Use Happens

- Municipal Planners
- Developers
- Elected Officials
- Infrastructure

## Guidance Used In Decision Making

- Municipal Planning Code
- Zoning and Subdivision and Land Use Ordinances
- County and Local Comprehensive Plans

## Municipal Considerations

- Priorities of Municipal Officials
- Quality of Life
- Growth and Open Space Preservation
- Other State and Federal Regulatory requirements

## Where Aviation Fits In

- Not in the MPC
- Not in the education of many planners
- Not in the forefront of broader voter or business interests
- Not in Quality of Life for most residents

## What Now? Options for Aviation

- Less Carrot More Stick
- Educating Planners and Elected Officials
- Amend the MPC
- Identify how Aviation fits into Community Priorities

## Areas of Shared Concerned

- Growth and Open Space Preservation
- Agricultural Preservation
- Industrial and Economic Development
- Overall Land Use Compatibility

## Consider the Community Perspective

- Take the community perspective when working with communities. Take the aviation hat off. Put the neighbor hat on.
- Don’t try to win them over. Become an advocate of community priorities.
- Communicate and educate. Listen and learn.
- Build strong alliance with business, industry, agriculture, environmental, and open space advocates

## Conclusions

- Even good neighbors have needs and aspirations
- Considering the “other side” has real advantages
- There is always common ground, even among seeming adversaries
- Use intermediaries to intervene when needed

## NMSSM Higgs pp→WH+X in CMSS.LehtiHelsinki Institute of Physics

- What’s been done so far

## Skype conference in March
Moretti, Hesselbach, Shepherd, Lehti
A preliminary scenario was selected so that events can be simulated and tested
a1→,  final state was left open
10k events simulated with PYTHIA

- Moretti, Hesselbach, Shepherd, Lehti
- A preliminary scenario was selected so that events can be simulated and tested
- a1→,  final state was left open
- 10k events simulated with PYTHIA

- Pythia parameters:
- 	 ”MSEL = 0”,
- 	 "IMSS(1) = 1    ! switch on susy",
- 	 "IMSS(4) = 2    ! higgs parameters are set by hand",
- 	 "MSUB(172)= 1   ! WH",
- 	 "MDME(220,1)= 1 ! h->tautau  (a1->tautau)",
- 	 "MDME(352,1)= 1  ! H->hh (h1->a1a1)“,
- 	 "MDME(206,1)= 1 ! W->enu“,
- 	 "MDME(207,1)= 1 ! W->munu",
- 	 "PMAS(25,1)=5.3      ! mass of h0",
- 	 "PMAS(35,1)=105.0    ! mass of H0",
-    	 "PMAS(36,1)=133.0    ! mass of A0",
-         	 "PMAS(37,1)=133.0    ! mass of H+"

## Trigger

- Associated W used for triggering
- Trigger: single electron or single muon
- Thresholds 19 GeV (muon) and 26 GeV (electron)
- Planning to use also
-     the special non-isolated
-     double-mu trigger
-     (when it becomes
-      available)

## a1 →: R()

## Selection

- Perhaps the best final state: muon+taujet
-  clean signal, good backgr rejection expected
-  BR not too low
-  less MET than in fully leptonic final state
-  the new trigger can be used

- all events      		3197
- isol lepton     		1564		(trigger lepton)
- 2 (other) muons 	42                  (eff 2.7% only!)
- 2 tau jets      		5		(muon in taucone)

## Very soft taus!

## Mass reconstruction,no neutrinos taken in account

## Mass reconstruction,collinear approximation

## Mass reconstruction,neutrinos estimated using a1 mass

**Does this work with backgrounds?**

## Questions

- Benchmark scenario needed
- pp→WH+X cross section for the benchmark scenario
- backgrounds:
- W+jets
- QCD
- Other potential backgrounds?
- Switching from PYTHIA to ..CompHEP? How to simulate the signal?

## NTM control by ECCD on ASDEX Upgrade

**S. Günter, F. Leuterer, A. Manini, M. Maraschek, H. Zohm, ASDEX Upgrade Team**
- Max-Planck-Institut für Plasmaphysik Garching, Germany

-  Influence of ECCD deposition width on stabilization efficiency
- 	- direct NTM stabilization
- 	- ST control
- 	- early deposition (before NTM onset)
-  modulated vs. non-modulated CD (in progress)
-  Upgrade of ECCD system on AUGD

## What is the optimum launch angle?

**What is the optimum launch angle?**

- Optimisation problem (both IECCD and d increase with toroidal launch angle)
-  modelling predicts optimum angle to be smaller than previously used angle

- so far 15° launch angle used

## Narrow deposition width is beneficial for NTM stabilization

**Narrow deposition width is beneficial for NTM stabilization**

- Increased efficiency of ECCD for very narrow deposition width
- >>  full NTM stabilization at lower ECCD power

## (3,2) NTM control at high N with narrow deposition width

**(3,2) NTM control at high ********N**** with narrow deposition width**

## Increased efficiency also for (2,1) NTMs

**Increased efficiency also for (2,1) NTMs**

## NTM avoidance by early ECCD?

**NTM avoidance by early ECCD?**

- Early ECCD close to (3,2) surface delays NTM onset
- (only for large deposition width >> total current counts)

## NTM avoidance by ST control

- off-axis co-ECCD
- on-axis ctr ECCD (fishbone triggers NTM)

- ST avoidance by:

**NTM avoidance by ST control**

**Mück, Goodman, Sauter 2003**

## NTM avoidance by ST control

**NTM avoidance by ST control**

- Again less total current required for more localized current drive
- (Manini et al., EPS 2005)

## NTM avoidance by early ST control

**NTM avoidance by early ST control**

- About same efficiency for wide and narrow ECCD although different total current

- Heating effect  for counter ECCD stronger for wide deposition

## On schedule for next week, sorry!

**Modulated versus Non-Modulated CD**

-  First experiments on ASDEX Upgrade did not show any difference
-    in stabilization efficiency between AC and DC current drive
-  Reason:  - Current driven at X-point is not effective as flux surface
-                    averaged current density is small
-                  - Modulation expected to be more effective for small islands

**On schedule for next week, sorry!**

## Upgrade plans for the ECRH system

**Upgrade plans for the ECRH system**

- one delivered

## Summary

**Summary**

-  Smaller deposition width beneficial for NTM stabilization
- 	- both for (3,2) and (2,1)
-  small deposition (smaller current!) also ok for ST tailoring
-  modulated vs. non-modulated ECCD (w < wECCD) are on the way

## Basal Cell Carcinoma

- High Incidence
- Majority face and neck
- Diagnosis not always easy without histology
- Very rarely metastasize
- Recurrence may lead to substantial morbidity(especially if detection delayed)
- Response to therapy varies with type, size, location

## Attributes of a desirable treatment for basal cell cancer- patient perspective

- Quick(one visit)
- Painless
- Quick healing
- Limited wound care or restriction
- Good cosmetic result
- Tumor unlikely to recur

## Characteristics of therapy that maximize its usefulness in clinical practice:

- Simple – therapy can be standardized to limit interoperator variability.
- Appropriate lesions easily defined (site, type)
- High response rate
- Recurrences at treatment border (not deep)(apparent early)

## Current Therapies for Superficial and Nodular Basal Cell Cancers

- Electrodessication and Curettage
- Cryosurgery
- Excisional Surgery
- MOHS Surgery

## Questions for committeeConceptually

- Is there sufficient data to know how well it works?
- Is the therapy sufficiently “clear” to be used effectively?
- Why did results vary so greatly (center to center)?
- Does it work well enough to be a meaningful addition given available therapies?

- Following contractor work: 3-4 month
- controls installation
- Refrigerators and Compressors could
- be fully operational by Oct 2005

## Transfer Line Connection from Refrigerator Hall

-  Farmed out to Fermilab Particle
- Physics Divison (PPD)
- Goal for completion for
- installation stage is Oct 2005
- Until this connection becomes fully functional, we will operate with dewar fed system

## Cryogenic Effort #3  KEK and Forced Flow

***In regards to KEK...***
- 79 foot long transfer line for hydrogen test caused excess usage of helium as well as instabilities...we will shorten transfer line and validate instrumentation...hope to incorporate this into mechanical efforts of Solenoid
- Need to consider KEK cryostat itself and desire to re-instrument...KEK needs to take lead in this as well as resolve heater questions

## In regards to Forced Flow Cryostat...

- Original 3D model exists for Cryostat
- Bates “Sample” Hydrogen Loop
- Project Completion On-Hold ...
- Lack of Engineering Priority
- (Refer Details to Christine Darve talk)

## Internet Map Service

- Geographic Resource Information Management

## What is an Internet Map Service? 

- A: An Internet Map Service (IMS) is an interactive web based interface that allows the user to view and use park GIS data to create layouts and print maps without specialized GIS software or training. IMS puts GIS at your fingertips.

## How does an IMS work? 

- A: An IMS takes GIS data stored on the online NPS GIS Data Store, standardizes its appearance and makes it available through an easy to use, easy to access web portal. Additionally, IMS provides a link so users can download GIS data and view detailed descriptions of the data.

## What else does IMS do?

- A: IMS provides a whole suite of specialized tools allowing users to measure distances and areas, draw features onto maps, find locations, save and print specialized layouts and much, much more...

##  What are the benefits?

**Access:** IMS requires only an internet connection.
**Use:** In depth, interactive help menus. Standardized look and feel of all map attributes.
**Mobile:** Access your GIS data, make and print maps from anywhere.
**Data sharing:** Offer IMS as an educational tool to visitors and partners that have internet access.

## Internet Map Service In Action

##  Use IMS To Display Images

**IMS can display GIS**
**data over several useful**
**backgrounds, including USGS** **imagery and topographic** **maps, and ***** *****If available, high** **resolution, color or satellite imagery.**

##  Use IMS to Find Coordinates

**The IMS *****Identify *****tool lets you**
**view the attributes and** **coordinates of any feature in** **a GIS dataset. Use the** ***Markup *****coordinates tool to** **find and label new locations anywhere in a park.**

##  Add features...

**Make a specialized map for** **any project, big or small.**  ***Markup *****tools can add new** **points, lines and polygons** **to a map. Label new features by** **adding text, save customized layouts** **for later use.**

## Create, save and print custom maps...

**IMS allows for greater freedom in designing and customizing map layouts. Printing, saving and sharing custom tailored maps has also never been easier. Use any number of the custom print/export layouts.  With IMS make and share park maps  for anything as routine as a staff meeting or as pressing as a fire response.**
