description: We present a both ultraviolet and infrared regularization independent analysis in a symmetry preserving framework for the N=1 Super Yang-Mills beta function to two loop order. We show explicitly that off-shell infrared divergences as well as the overall two loop ultraviolet divergence cancel out whilst the beta function receives contributions of infrared modes.

description: The recently developed Kraus representation for bosonic Gaussian channels is employed to study analytically the robustness of non-Gaussian entanglement against evolution under noisy attenuator and amplifier environments, and compare it with the robustness of Gaussian entanglement. Our results show that some non-Gaussian states with one ebit of entanglement are more robust than all Gaussian states, even the ones with arbitrarily large entanglement, a conclusion of direct consequence to the recent conjecture by Allegra et al. [PRL, 105, 100503 (2010)].

Using pathogen inactivation treatment to study the stability of platelet messenger RNA
Creators: name: Klein-Bosgoed, Christa
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: Pathogen inactivation (PI) techniques are designed to increase the safety of blood products by damaging RNA and DNA of pathogens. Even though platelets are anucleate, they synthesize proteins using RNA and the ribosomal machinery derived from megakaryocytes. The role of protein synthesis in platelets, however, is still poorly understood. PI-treated platelets show signs of accelerated storage lesion, but the effect of PI on platelet mRNA and subsequent protein synthesis remains unclear. In this dissertation we investigated to what extend platelet mRNA is affected by PI using Mirasol as a representative PI. In chapter 3 we demonstrated that the Mirasol treatment affected platelet mRNA negatively in a target specific manner, but prolonged the mRNA half-life. The long mRNA half-life suggested the presence of a mechanism, protecting platelet mRNA from degradation. We investigated the role of p38 as a potential regulator of platelet mRNA and if stress granule (SG) formation could be involved in protecting platelet mRNA. The kinase p38 is a key regulator of a wide range of platelet function. In nucleated cells, UV-induced stress activates the p38 and ultimately leads to increased mRNA stability through the regulation of RNA binding proteins. UV illumination is a key feature of all PI technique, and p38 is activated in Mirasol-treated platelets. In chapter 4 we demonstrated that inhibition of p38 in Mirasol-treated platelets increased the mRNA half-life, but not through the RNA binding proteins HuR or TTP. SG formation is a protective response in nucleated cells to temporarily store mRNA and consists of mRNAs and specific SG proteins. Chapter 5 is a description of the preliminary experiments performed to test the effect of a known SG inducer (arsenite) and inhibitor (nocodazole) in platelets, especially in the context of the Mirasol treatment. Nocodazole did not impact the platelet mRNA levels, but affected the mean platelet volume and count in Mirasol-treated platelets. Arsenite exposure did not affect platelet total RNA or GAPDH mRNA, but showed a reduction in extent of shape change. Our experiments showed that platelets possessed the potential to form stress granules, but a definitive mechanism was not demonstrated.

Study of the role of viral coat protein and host factor HSP70 homologs in the assembly and disassembly of Cucumber necrosis virus particles
Creators: name: Alam, Syed Benazir
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: Virion assembly and disassembly are crucial aspects of the virus multiplication cycle, however, relatively little is known about these processes in plant viruses. While the former helps to produce multiple copies of stable infectious progeny virions, the latter is required for release of the encapsidated viral genome into a host cell for initiating new rounds of virus multiplication. In this thesis, I aimed to study Cucumber necrosis virus (CNV) particle assembly and disassembly and the role of CNV coat protein (CP) and host HSP70 homologs in these processes. It was found that CNV infection of Nicotiana benthamiana causes a significant upregulation of HSP70 homologs, and that, in turn, HSP70 is co-opted by the virus at several stages of the multiplication cycle to promote various aspects of the infection cycle including viral RNA, CP and particle accumulation. HSP70 homologs were also found to assist CNV CP in chloroplast targeting possibly to attenuate chloroplast-mediated plant defence and thereby allow further spread of the virus. It was also determined that the HSP70 homologue, Hsc70-2 is bound to CNV virions and that this association appears to facilitate the uncoating efficiency of CNV particles likely via triggering a conformational change in particles. This is the first report that a plant virus utilizes HSP70 homologs for disassembly. A highly basic “KGRKPR” sequence in the ε-region of the CNV CP arm was also examined for its role in virion assembly and encapsidation of viral RNA. Through mutational analysis, it was found that the basic residues promote T=3 versus T=1 virion formation and encapsidation of full-length viral RNA in vivo. Moreover, mutants lacking 2-4 of the basic residues encapsidated proportionately greater amounts of host RNA suggesting the role of these basic residues in selection of viral RNA during assembly. It was also shown that heat shock enhances transcription of heat-inducible ONSEN-like retrotransposons known to be induced during CNV infection. Since retrotransposons are known to play an important role in genome variation, the described studies may be helpful in understanding the importance of plant viruses in inducing genome variation and perhaps adaptation of plants to changes in the environment.

description: Using a species-selective dipole potential, we create initially localized impurities and investigate their interactions with a majority species of bosonic atoms in a one-dimensional configuration during expansion. We find an interaction-dependent amplitude reduction of the oscillation of the impurities' size with no measurable frequency shift, and study it as a function of the interaction strength. We discuss possible theoretical interpretations of the data. We compare, in particular, with a polaronic mass shift model derived following Feynman variational approach.

description: We examine the constraints on the luminosity-dependent density evolution model for the evolution of blazars given the observed spectrum of the diffuse gamma-ray background (DGRB), blazar source-count distribution, and the blazar spectral energy distribution sequence model, which relates the observed the blazar spectrum to its luminosity. We show that the DGRB observed by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) aboard the Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope can be produced entirely by gamma-ray emission from blazars and nonblazar active galactic nuclei, and that our blazar evolution model is consistent with and constrained by the spectrum of the DGRB and flux source-count distribution function of blazars observed by Fermi-LAT. Our results are consistent with previous work that used EGRET spectral data to forecast the Fermi-LAT DGRB. The model includes only three free parameters, and forecasts that >~ 95% of the flux from blazars will be resolved into point sources by Fermi-LAT with 5 years of observation, with a corresponding reduction of the flux in the DGRB by a factor of ~2 to 3 (95% confidence level), which has implications for the Fermi-LAT's sensitivity to dark matter annihilation photons.

Publisher: name: Karlsruhe
Year: 2017

description: This contribution suggests an approach to determine the optimal design of a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor for a given application by calculating the effects of coil configuration switching, pole-changing and multi-phase windings. The impact on the torque-speed-characteristic of a motor is evaluated in a normalized parameter plane, enabling the designer to compare the influences by using criteria like the operating range. Moreover, a way of assessing additional semiconductors is introduced. The effects on an exemplary design are presented in a unified approach. Due to this, promising designs for the example can be identified, which double the reachable torquespeed area to nearly ideal values.

description: The detailed analysis of wide excitation function of nuclear stopping has been studied within a transport model, Isospin-dependent Quantum Molecular Dynamics model (IQMD) and an overall good agreement with the INDRA and FOPI experimental data has been achieved. It is found that mean value of isotropy in central Heavy-Ion Collision (HIC) reaches a minimum near Fermi energy and approaches a maximum around 300 - 400$A$ MeV. This suggests that, in statistical average, the equilibration is far from being reached even in central HIC especially near Fermi energy. A hierarchy in stopping of fragments, which favors heavy fragments to penetrate, provides a robust restriction on the global trend of nuclear stopping and could serve as a probe for nuclear equation of state.

description: Marine biofouling is often associated with biofilm formation on submerged surfaces, which causes economic and environmental problems. Although several biocides and cleaners have been used to control biofouling, new eco-friendly antifouling approaches are required. Chitosan (CS) is a polysaccharide widely used due to its outstanding properties, namely its antimicrobial activity. This work aimed to produce and characterise poly(lactic acid) (PLA)-CS surfaces with CS of different molecular weight (Mw) at different concentrations for application in marine paints. The antimicrobial performance of these surfaces was assessed against Cobetia marina for 7 weeks under controlled hydrodynamic conditions. All CS surfaces exerted a significant antimicrobial action by reducing the number of culturable cells up to 69% compared to control, being this activity dependent on CS Mw. Optical Coherence Tomography analysis corroborated these results, showing reductions in biofilm thickness of up to 36%. Overall, CS coatings represent a promising approach to reducing biofouling in marine environments.

description: Home literacy environment has ubiquitously been investigated against its impact on academic achievement and reading motivation. This study is an investigation of the long-lasting effects of home literacy environment on Moroccan students’ reading motivation. 178 students aged 14-24 were surveyed online to elicit their early-age home literacy experiences and to test them against the odds of their reading motivation. Using data gathered on such environments and experiences, a binary logistic regression inferential test was conducted to test if students who grow up in literacy-rich home environments are more likely to be motivated readers, and vice versa. The purpose of using this test in particular is to find out whether reading motivation can be predicted based on home literacy environment data. The accuracy of prediction of this test can be indicative of its potential to detect and diagnose reading motivation at various academic levels. As far as findings of this study are concerned the BLR test affirms that the odds of reading motivation being tied to HLE factors are significantly high. Using BLR to predict, diagnose, and intervene may help educators, parents, and curricula developers in considering HLE and early-age literacy experiences in policy making and curricula designs.

description: SRP is working with the City of Chandler and Intel on the High-Tech Interconnect Project (HIP), a proposed transmission project that is required to provide reliable power to the expansion of Intel’s Chandler campus. SRP is working with the City of Chandler to meet the city’s preference to underground a significant portion of the transmission line, address conflicts with existing underground utilities, and ensure technical feasibility of the underground segments. The remaining overhead segments are located within areas that already have overhead transmission facilities or are commercial in nature. The underground portion of the route that was approved between SRP and the City of Chandler designates the city to pay for the incremental cost for undergrounding. The Intel expansion will require SRP to build a new 230kV substation on Intel’s campus and new 230kV transmission lines connecting the campus to two existing substations. As a part of SRP’s Certificate of Environmental Compatibility, a Class I records search and a Class III cultural resources survey of the project area were conducted. The Class I records search was conducted by PanGIS, Inc. (PanGIS) and is reported elsewhere (Mengers 2021). Following the Class I records search, SRP tasked EcoPlan to conduct an intensive pedestrian (Class III) cultural resources survey (reported herein). The purpose of the survey was to identify cultural resources within the project area, assess their eligibility for listing according to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) criteria for significance, 36 Code of Federal Regulations 60.4, and make a recommendation concerning the potential effect of the proposed undertaking on cultural resources listed in or eligible for listing in the NRHP.

This map is not intended to be used for selecting individual sites. Its purpose is to inform land-use planners, government officials, and the public in a general way about geologic bedrock conditions that affect the selection of sites for various purposes. The properties of thick soils may supercede those of the underlying bedrock and should be considered on a site-to-site basis. At any site, it is important to understand the characteristics of both the soils and the underlying rock.

description: Homogeneous relaxation is a ubiquitous phenomenon in semiclassical kinetic theories where the quasiparticles are distributed uniformly in space, and the equilibration involves only their velocity distribution. For such solutions, the hydrodynamic variables remain constant. We construct asymptotically AdS solutions of Einstein's gravity dual to such processes at strong coupling, perturbatively in the amplitude expansion, where the expansion parameter is the ratio of the amplitude of the non-hydrodynamic shear-stress tensor to the pressure. At each order, we sum over all time derivatives through exact recursion relations. We argue that the metric has a regular future horizon, order by order in the amplitude expansion, provided the shear-stress tensor follows an equation of motion. At the linear order, this equation of motion implies that the metric perturbations are composed of zero wavelength quasinormal modes. Our method allows us to calculate the non-linear corrections to this equation perturbatively in the amplitude expansion. We thus derive a special case of our previous conjecture on the regularity condition on the boundary stress tensor that endows the bulk metric with a regular future horizon, and also refine it further. We also propose a new outlook for heavy-ion phenomenology at RHIC and ALICE.

Water sorption hysteresis and wood cell wall nanopore structure
Creators: name: Shi, Jingbo
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: The origin of sorption hysteresis in the wood-water system is still under debate. In this study, cell walls are considered as micro-mesoporous materials and capillary condensation in the entire hygroscopic region is proposed as an alternative sorption mechanism. Initially, the pore connectivity was investigated by observing five experimentally generated hysteresis patterns at 25 and 40oC. Consistent patterns were found for the species-temperature combinations. Further, the satisfactory congruency and wiping-out properties indicate the dominance of independent cell wall pores. After this experimental phase, the geometric interpretations derived from the Preisach model, the mathematical form of the independent domain model, was used tο explain the observed hysteresis patterns. Additionally, a modification to the aforementioned model was suggested that involves a numerical implementation, which avoids the use of unknown parameters. The low prediction errors and well-maintained wiping-out property support the suitability of our approach. In the next phase, grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) technique was applied in a simplified wood-water system to simulate sorption isotherms and hysteresis at 25 and 40°C. In the simulation system, wood is represented by a cell wall model that is composed of solid substances and evenly distributed independent cylindrical nanopores with sizes in the range of 0.6 – 2.2nm. Two types of pore-wall compositions regarding polysaccharides and lignin have been considered. The hydroxyl groups are modeled as negative energy pits attached to walls whereas water is represented by the SPC/E model. Results demonstrated that hysteresis can be well explained by the existence of metastable states associated with capillary condensation and evaporation of water in cell wall pores. The alternative sorption mechanism driven by capillary condensation is also strongly supported by the simulation. In the last phase, the cell wall pore size distributions in the hygroscopic range were explored for the three species from a “trial and error” calculation approach. This approach was indirectly examined by comparing derived volumetric strain of cell walls and the density of adsorbed water in the hygroscopic range with literature data. The qualitative agreement indicates the soundness of assumptions made on the cell wall swelling process and proposed calculation procedures.

description: General properties of Kerr-Schild spacetimes with (A)dS background in arbitrary dimension are studied. It is shown that the geodetic Kerr-Schild vector k is a multiple WAND of the spacetime. Einstein Kerr-Schild spacetimes with non-expanding k are shown to be of Weyl type N, while the expanding spacetimes are of type II or D. It is shown that this class of spacetimes obeys the optical constraint. This allows us to solve Sachs equation, determine r-dependence of boost weight zero components of the Weyl tensor and discuss curvature singularities.

description: We develop a theory of spin noise in semiconductor nanowires considered as prospective elements for spintronics. In these structures spin-orbit coupling can be realized as a random function of coordinate correlated on the spatial scale of the order of 10 nm. By analyzing different regimes of electron transport and spin dynamics, we demonstrate that the spin relaxation can be very slow and the resulting noise power spectrum increases algebraically as frequency goes to zero. This effect makes spin effects in nanowires best suitable for studies by rapidly developing spin-noise spectroscopy.

description: Half-lives $T_{1/2}^{2ν}$ for two neutrino positron double beta decay modes $β^{+}$EC/ECEC are calculated for $^{84}$Sr, a nucleus of current experimental interest, within the framework of the deformed shell model based on Hartree-Fock states employing a modified Kuo interaction in ($^{2}p_{3/2}$, $^{1}f_{5/2}$, $^{2}p_{1/2}$, $^{1}g_{9/2}$) space. For a reasonable description of the spectra of $^{84}$Sr and $^{84}$Kr and to generate allowed GT strengths, the single particle energies of the proton and neutron $^1g_{9/2}$ orbitals, relative to the $^{2}p_{3/2}$ orbital energy, are chosen to be (3.5 MeV, 1.5 MeV) for both $^{84}$Sr and $^{84}$Rb and (1.5 MeV, 1.5 MeV) for $^{84}$Kr. With this, the calculated half-lives for the $β^+$EC and ECEC modes are $\sim 10^{26}$yr and $\sim 4 \times 10^{24}$yr respectively.

description: We analyze the accuracy of the pion elastic form factor predicted by a local-duality (LD) version of dispersive sum rules. To probe the precision of this theoretical approach, we adopt potential models with interactions that involve both Coulomb and confining terms. In this case, the exact form factor may be obtained from the solution of the Schroedinger equation and confronted with the LD sum rule results. We use parameter values appropriate for hadron physics and observe that, independently of the details of the confining interaction, the deviation of the LD form factor from the exact form factor culminates in the region Q^2~4-6 GeV^2. For larger Q^2, the accuracy of the LD description increases rather fast with Q^2. A similar picture is expected for QCD. For the pion form factor, existing data suggest that the LD limit may be reached already at the relatively low values Q^2=4-10 GeV^2. Thus, large deviations of the pion form factor from the behaviour predicted by LD QCD sum rules for higher values of Q^2, as found by some recent analyses, appear to us quite improbable. New accurate data on the pion form factor at Q^2=4-10 GeV^2 expected soon from JLab will have important implications for the behaviour of the pion form factor in a broad Q^2 range up to asymptotically large values of Q^2.

The synthesis and reactivity of low-coordinate enamido-phosphinimine iron complexes

description: Unsymmetrical, bidentate ancillary ligand scaffolds containing enamido-phosphinimine donors (NpN) were developed for the synthesis of low-coordinate iron complexes. A variety of ligands varying in steric hindrance were synthesized through the modularity of the Staudinger reaction. Trigonal planar and dimeric tetrahedral iron bromide complexes were fully characterized and served as precursors for further reactivity. The reduction chemistry of NpN iron bromide complexes was investigated and a number of end-on bridging N2 complexes were characterized by X-ray crystallography. Analysis of the coordinated N2 bond length indicated that the NpN scaffold does not contribute to enhanced bond activation in comparison to well-established β-diketiminate iron N2 complexes. Additionally, an NpN ligand with an indene linker was synthesized with the intent of generating an anionic indenyl moiety that would contribute electron density to the Fe–N₂ backbonding interaction. Unfortunately, DFT results indicated that minimal enhancement to activation results from this effect. A reoccurring observation in the attempted synthesis of NpN dinitrogen complexes was that the P=N bond of the phosphinimine was susceptible to cleavage under reducing conditions. A low-coordinate, dimeric NpN iron hydride was synthesized and its reactivity with unsaturated substrates was explored. The products from hydride insertion into azobenzene, 3-hexyne, and 1-azidoadamantane were characterized and did not vary significantly from the analogous products reported for the reactivity of β-diketiminate iron hydrides. Surprisingly, the NpN iron hydride displays unprecedented reactivity towards hexafluorobenzene, affording an NpN iron fluoride complex and pentafluorobenzene as products. The NpN iron hydride is a precatalyst for catalytic hydrodefluorination of perfluorinated aromatics in the presence of silane. Kinetic studies indicated that the rate-determining step during catalysis involved silane. Enamine-phosphazide intermediates were isolated during the Staudinger reaction and were stable to deprotonation and coordination to Fe(II) and Co(II) halides. The enamido-phosphazide iron bromide complex displayed unusual reactivity upon treatment with potassium triethylborohydride, affording a dimeric phosphinimido species with an Fe–Fe bond. Isotopic labeling studies indicated that cleavage of the phosphazide N–C(aryl) bond occurred through a radical process.

description: We study the entanglement spectrum of spin-1/2 XXZ ladders both analytically and numerically. Our analytical approach is based on perturbation theory starting either from the limit of strong rung coupling, or from the opposite case of dominant coupling along the legs. In the former case we find to leading order that the entanglement Hamiltonian is also of nearest-neighbor XXZ form although with an in general renormalized anisotropy. For the cases of XX and isotropic Heisenberg ladders no such renormalization takes place. In the Heisenberg case the second order correction to the entanglement Hamiltonian consists of a renormalization of the nearest neighbor coupling plus an unfrustrated next nearest neighbor coupling. In the opposite regime of strong coupling along the legs, we point out an interesting connection of the entanglement spectrum to the Lehmann representation of single chain spectral functions of operators appearing in the physical Hamiltonian coupling the two chains.

description: The resistive switching phenomenon in MgO-based tunnel junctions is attributed to the effect of charged defects inside the barrier. The presence of electron traps in the MgO barrier, that can be filled and emptied, locally modifies the conductance of the barrier and leads to the resistive switching effects. A double-well model for trapped electrons in MgO is introduced to theoretically describe this phenomenon. Including the statistical distribution of potential barrier heights for these traps leads to a power-law dependence of the resistance as a function of time, under a constant bias voltage. This model also predicts a power-law relation of the hysteresis as a function of the voltage sweep frequency. Experimental transport results strongly support this model and in particular confirm the expected power laws dependencies of resistance. They moreover indicate that the exponent of these power laws varies with temperature as theoretically predicted.

description: The direct detection of dark matter through its elastic scattering off nucleons is among the most promising methods for establishing the particle identity of dark matter. The current bound on the spin-independent scattering cross section is sigma^SI < 10 zb for dark matter masses m_chi ~ 100 GeV, with improved sensitivities expected soon. We examine the implications of this progress for neutralino dark matter. We work in a supersymmetric framework well-suited to dark matter studies that is simple and transparent, with models defined in terms of four weak-scale parameters. We first show that robust constraints on electric dipole moments motivate large sfermion masses mtilde > 1 TeV, effectively decoupling squarks and sleptons from neutralino dark matter phenomenology. In this case, we find characteristic cross sections in the narrow range 1 zb < sigma^SI < 40 zb for m_chi > 70 GeV. As sfermion masses are lowered to near their experimental limit mtilde ~ 400 GeV, the upper and lower limits of this range are extended, but only by factors of around two, and the lower limit is not significantly altered by relaxing many particle physics assumptions, varying the strange quark content of the nucleon, including the effects of galactic small-scale structure, or assuming other components of dark matter. Experiments are therefore rapidly entering the heart of dark matter-favored supersymmetry parameter space. If no signal is seen, supersymmetric models must contain some level of fine-tuning, and we identify and analyze several possibilities. Barring large cancellations, however, in a large and generic class of models, if thermal relic neutralinos are a significant component of dark matter, experiments will discover them as they probe down to the zeptobarn scale.
