Enhancing the effectiveness of e-mail newsletters: how content (subject lines, intros) impacts response rates
Creators: name: O'Connell, Michael
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2008

description: This thesis seeks evidence that e-mail newsletters can become more effective when employing certain content approaches with the e-mail subject line and the body of the e-mail, with effectiveness being measured in open and click-through (or click) rates, as well as click-to-open ratios. The researcher conducted an experiment with an existing e-mail newsletter, employing A/B testing with a total of 75,000 subscribers to determine whether modifications to the subject and introductory body text of the newsletter correlate with an increase in activity among newsletter subscribers – that is, more e-mail being opened (viewed) and more clicks on links within those e-mail newsletters. Findings suggest a slightly positive significance for custom, content-specific subject lines, and a negative significance for introduction sections with a bulleted list of links. Findings also reject the hypotheses that shorter subject lines significantly improve open rates, and that shorter introduction sections (sans lists of links) improve open rates.

description: This paper relates to the parametric study of tunnel hoods in order to reduce the shape, i.e the temporal gradient, of the pressure wave generated by the entry of a High speed train in tunnel. This is achieved by using an in-house three-dimensional numerical solver which solves the Eulerian equations on a Cartesian and unstructured mesh. The efficiency of the numerical methodology is demonstrated through comparisons with both experimental data and empirical formula. For the tunnel hood design, three parameters, that can influence the wave shape, are considered: the shape, the section and the length of the hood. The numerical results show, (i) that a constant section hood is the most efficient shape when compared to progressive (elliptic or conical) section hoods, (ii) an optimal ratio between hood's section and tunnel section where the temporal gradient of the pressure wave can be reduced by half, (iii) a significant efficiency of the hood's length in the range of 2 to 8 times the length of the train nose. Finally the influence of the train's speed is investigated and results point out that the optimum section is slightly modified by the train's speed.

description: As the rave community in Calgary grew from a small counterculture movement to a mainstream business activity, the City of Calgary enacted a bylaw to address issues associated with the rave events taking place in its neighbourhoods. The purpose of the bylaw is two-fold: to ensure that raves are safe for participants and not unduly disruptive to surrounding neighbourhoods. Consultation and investigation with representatives from the municipality, the province and the community involved in raves shaped the context of the bylaw, and continue to influence how it is implemented and monitored. Calgary is the first major municipality in Canada to pass a bylaw respecting raves.

description: We propose a scheme for continuous detection of itinerant microwave photons in circuit quantum electrodynamics. In the proposed device, a superconducting qubit is coupled dispersively to two resonators: one is used to form an impedance-matched $Λ$ system that deterministically captures incoming photons, and the other is used for continuous monitoring of the event. The present scheme enables efficient photon detection: for realistic system parameters, the detection efficiency reaches 0.9 with a bandwidth of about ten megahertz.

description: Each dataset is identified by a strain name and condition, e.g. AML32_moving, and is wrapped in a .tar.gz archive. After extracting an archive, you will find subfolders corresponding to individual recordings. Additionally, a text file, e.g. AML32_moving_datasets.txt, indicates which datasets should be used for analysis. For recordings of the AML310 strain, these files also contain the volume number at which the BFP laser was turned on to identify AVA. The part of the recording after this volume number is excluded for behavior analysis. Within each dataset folder, there are five files: * centerline.mat * heatData.mat * heatDataMS.mat * pointStatsNew.mat * positionDataMS.mat These are the output of the neuron registration pipeline described in https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1005517.

Our new scheme enables the study of the dynamical behavior of atoms and molecules with strong electron interactions. The Gutzwiller approach goes beyond the conventional mean-field treatment of the intra-atomic electron repulsion and captures crucial correlation effects such as band narrowing and electron localization. We use Gutzwiller quantum molecular dynamics to investigate the Mott transition in the liquid phase of a single-band metal and uncover intriguing structural and transport properties of the atoms.

The experience of students and teachers in project-based learning

Publisher: name: Vancouver Island University - Royal Roads University
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Project method in teaching

description: This study uses action research to examine the experience of students and teachers as they participated in a project-based learning unit. The literature suggests that project-based learning can increase the involvement of students in the learning process and develop 21st century skills such as collaboration, problem solving and time management (Larmer & Mergendoller, 2010a). The students involved were in Grade 8 and were studying Optics. My hypothesis was that if students were engaged in self-directed learning through project-based learning, they would report being more engaged and achievement would increase. The students completed reflection questions at the summation of the project, which indicated an increase in effort applied to their work, an enjoyment of the project autonomy and the development of time-management skills. As the teacher, I completed engagement rubrics during each class on which students reported high levels of engagement. I also kept a journal that I wrote in after each class, which I coded for themes at the end of the research. Three themes emerged from this journal: uncertainty surrounding what an engaged classroom should look like, anxiety regarding students being selfdirected in their learning, and a correlation between my cognitive energy and the perception of the lesson. The results of this study suggest that while students experience increased engagement and achievement, an emphasis needs to be placed on providing teachers with opportunities to learn and experiment with project-based learning.

description: Monolayers of molybdenum and tungsten dichalcogenides are direct bandgap semiconductors, which makes them promising for opto-electronic applications. In particular, van der Waals heterostructures consisting of monolayers of MoS2 sandwiched between atomically thin hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and graphene electrodes allows one to obtain light emitting quantum wells (LEQWs) with low-temperature external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 1%. However, the EQE of MoS2 and MoSe2-based LEQWs shows behavior common for many other materials: it decreases fast from cryogenic conditions to room temperature, undermining their practical applications. Here we compare MoSe2 and WSe2 LEQWs. We show that the EQE of WSe2 devices grows with temperature, with room temperature EQE reaching 5%, which is 250x more than the previous best performance of MoS2 and MoSe2 quantum wells in ambient conditions. We attribute such a different temperature dependences to the inverted sign of spin-orbit splitting of conduction band states in tungsten and molybdenum dichalcogenides, which makes the lowest-energy exciton in WSe2 dark.

description: We study the unresolved X-ray emission in three Local Group dwarf elliptical galaxies (NGC 147, NGC 185 and NGC 205) using XMM-Newton observations, which most likely originates from a collection of weak X-ray sources, mainly cataclysmic variables and coronally active binaries. Precise knowledge of this stellar X-ray emission is crucial not only for understanding the relevant stellar astrophysics but also for disentangling and quantifying the thermal emission from diffuse hot gas in nearby galaxies.We find that the integrated X-ray emissivities of the individual dwarf ellipticals agree well with that of the Solar vicinity, supporting an often assumed but untested view that the X-ray emissivity of old stellar populations is quasi-universal in normal galactic environments, in which dynamical effects on the formation and destruction of binary systems are not important. The average X-ray emissivity of the dwarf ellipticals, including M32 studied in the literature, is measured to be $L_{0.5-2\ \rm {keV}}/M_{\ast} = (6.0 \pm 0.5 \pm 1.8) \times 10^{27} \ \rm{erg \ s^{-1} \ M_\odot^{-1}}$. We also compare this value to the integrated X-ray emissivities of Galactic globular clusters and old open clusters and discuss the role of dynamical effects in these dense stellar systems.

description: Although students who have ever received English learner services (ever-ELs) during K-12 comprise a significant and growing share of the population, the transient nature of K-12 EL status and services makes it difficult for researchers to follow ever-ELs throughout their educational pipeline. In this paper, we use longitudinal state administrative data with repeated measures of EL status to examine the early, intermediate, and long-term college outcomes of ever- and never-EL students who attended public colleges and universities in Texas. Our results offer new insights into the postsecondary trajectories of ever- and never-EL high-school seniors who transitioned into college.

description: A time evolution model was developed to study fuel burnup for the TRIGA Mark II reactor at the University of Pavia. The results were used to predict the effects of a complete core reconfiguration and the accuracy of this prediction was tested experimentally. We used the Monte Carlo code MCNP5 to reproduce system neutronics in different operating conditions and to analyse neutron fluxes in the reactor core. The software that took care of time evolution, completely designed in-house, used the neutron fluxes obtained by MCNP5 to evaluate fuel consumption. This software was developed specifically to keep into account some features that differentiate experimental reactors from power ones, such as the daily ON/OFF cycle and the long fuel lifetime. These effects can not be neglected to properly account for neutron poison accumulation. We evaluated the effect of 48 years of reactor operation and predicted a possible new configuration for the reactor core: the objective was to remove some of the fuel elements from the core and to obtain a substantial increase in the Core Excess reactivity value. The evaluation of fuel burnup and the reconfiguration results are presented in this paper.

description: This thesis describes conceptual and methodological work that aims to advance the science of modeling and mapping wildlife habitat in human-modified landscapes. First, I review how researchers have defined and measured the quality of wildlife habitat over the past four decades. I then demonstrate a new approach to quantifying habitat quality by modeling habitat for the federally endangered Red-cockaded Woodpecker (Picoides borealis, RCW) across the Onslow Bight, a one million hectare region of North Carolina's coastal plain. Next, I describe the development and operation of a GIS toolbox for ArcGIS 9.3, called Connect, designed to help conservation practitioners incorporate habitat connectivity considerations into land management and land-use planning. In two stakeholder-driven case studies, I use the Connect tools to prioritize private land parcels for connectivity conservation in fragmented habitats around Fort Bragg, NC, and evaluate the effectiveness of a proposed corridor in promoting dispersal for RCW in the face of urban development.

description: We present $GalevNB$ (Galev for $N$-body simulations), an utility that converts fundamental stellar properties of $N$-body simulations into observational properties using the $GALEV$ (GAlaxy EVolutionary synthesis models) package, and thus allowing direct comparisons between observations and $N$-body simulations. It works by converting fundamental stellar properties, such as stellar mass, temperature, luminosity and metallicity into observational magnitudes for a variety of filters of mainstream instruments/telescopes, such as HST, ESO, SDSS, 2MASS, etc.), and into spectra that spans from far-UV (90 $\rm Å$) to near-IR (160 $\rm μ$m). As an application, we use $GalevNB$ to investigate the secular evolution of spectral energy distribution (SED) and color-magnitude diagram (CMD) of a simulated star cluster over a few hundred million years. With the results given by $GalevNB$ we discover an UV-excess in the SED of the cluster over the whole simulation time. We also identify four candidates that contribute to the FUV peak, core helium burning stars, thermal pulsing asymptotic giant branch (TPAGB) stars, white dwarfs and naked helium stars.

Muhibb Allah Ilahabadi's The equivalence between giving and receiving: Avicennan Neoplatonism and the School of Ibn Arabi in South Asia
Creators: name: Lipton, G. A.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2007

description: The current thesis focuses on The Equivalence between Giving and Receiving (Al-Taswiya bayna al-Ifada wa-l-Qabul), an unpublished Arabic treatise written by Muhibb Allah Ilahabadi (d .1648), known in India as “the second Ibn Arabi.” Although this text is one of the most controversial interpretations of Ibn Arabi’s metaphysics written in India, it and its author are rarely mentioned in contemporary scholarship on Sufism. I will argue that The Equivalence evinces a deeply Avicennan Neoplatonic idiom that is distinct from Ibn Arabi’s synthesis, which serves as its wider framework. The text thereby demonstrates an innovative integration of philosophical traditions within the larger context of Ibn Arabi’s school in seventeenth century India, showing that Muhibb Allah's unique philosophical synthesis is in conversation with his diverse intellectual milieu. The Equivalence reveals a dynamic philosophical discourse among intellectual communities of seventeenth century South Asia.

description: New artificial intelligence (AI) tools will shift the paradigm of healthcare and redefine how triage, diagnosis, and treatment are performed. This thesis examines studies analyzing ethical and practical issues of developing health AI tools and some suggested solutions, such as changes in data collection and study design. Though the dangers of AI of which we are aware are currently well-described, none of them have a simple solution. After an extensive narrative literature review of AI scholarship, I present common issues discussed in the literature and propose some solutions gleaned from them. One such solution is participatory design methods. Participatory design methods can guide the development of more ethical AI tools by involving the communities they affect from the beginning of the project. If participatory methods were consistently integrated into clinical trials, they could help resolve problems such as disconnects between factions of multidisciplinary research groups, patient data concerns about overbroad and irrelevant data collection, and even racial bias from data sources and uneven/unrepresentative data collection. The integration of participatory methods in clinical trials would lead to better and more ethical first-generation AI tools, which is essential because the data from these tools will influence those created in the future. This improvement would, in turn, lead to better AI tools in the future by improving and equalizing their performance across more treatment groups, as well as helping to make health AI more useful to patients and physicians.
Evolution and Contraction of Infinite Tensor Network States in Two-Dimensional Lattice Geometries

Subjects: subject: 530

description: The most important mathematical and physical properties of tensor networks in general as well as infinite projected entangled pair states (iPEPS) and 𝑛-simplex states are discussed in arbitrary dimensions. We review numerical methods for obtaining tensor network approximations to the ground state of local Hamiltonians including variational optimization, imaginary time evolution and the simple update scheme, mostly focusing on two-dimensional quantum systems. We demonstrate how infinite tensor networks can be contracted efficiently using infinite time-evolving block decimation (iTEBD) and corner transfer matrices and implement these methods for square and honeycomb iPEPS as well as for 3-simplex states on the Kagome lattice. We investigate the transverse field Ising model, the Heisenberg model, and two bilayered models on different lattices, revealing the generic abilities and limitations of these techniques.

Es wird ein Überblick über numerische Methoden zur Grundzustandsapproximation lokaler Hamiltonoperatoren durch Tensornetzwerke gegeben, der variationelle Optimierung, Imaginärzeitentwicklung und das simple update Schema beinhaltet und sich im Wesentlichen auf zweidimensionale Quantensysteme beschränkt. Wir zeigen, wie unendliche Tensornetzwerke effizient kontrahiert werden können unter Verwendung der Methode der infinite time-evolving block decimation sowie mithilfe von Ecktransfermatrizen, und implementieren diese Methoden für iPEPS auf dem Quadrat- und Bienenwabengitter sowie für 3-Simplex-Zustände auf dem Kagome-Gitter. Schließlich werden diese Techniken auf das Ising-Model mit transversalem Feld, das Heisenberg-Modell sowie zwei doppellagige Modelle auf verschiedenen Gittern angewendet. In diesem Zusammenhang diskutieren wir generische Stärken und Schwächen der eingesetzten Algorithmen.
Can Advanced Math Course Taking Sway College Enrollment: The Case of Texas Ever-English Learners

description: Advanced math course-taking during high school is a key predictor of college entrance. Previous research suggests that English learners (ELs) not only take fewer advanced math courses but also enroll in college at much lower rates than non-ELs. In the present study, we examine whether ever-EL status, i.e., ever being identified for and receiving EL services, moderates the relationship between advanced math and college enrollment. Essentially, do ever-EL students experience the same boost to college enrollment from advanced math as their peers? We employ multilevel models to analyze statewide, longitudinal administrative K–12 and higher education data to examine how ever-EL status and advanced math—and the interaction between the two factors—predict high school graduation, college application and enrollment, and level of college attended. Results show that both measures are associated with a greater likelihood of graduating from high school, applying to a four-year college, and enrolling in any college; we also found that ever-EL status moderates the relationship between advanced math and college enrollment, with important implications for students’ access to four-year colleges. Ultimately, ever-EL students experience different, and very specific, returns on advanced math relative to non-ELs.

description: Why do investors entrust active mutual fund managers with large sums of money while receiving negative excess returns on average? Our explanation is that investors have a coarser information set than fund managers which leads them to systematically misinterpret managers' skill. When investors are unable to correctly quantify risk because they have no knowledge of factor investing on beyond-market-risk factors, Fake Alpha strategies based on factor investing look like skill from the investors' perspective. As running such strategies is relatively cheap for the managers, the investors' coarser information set misleads them to invest beyond the point of zero excess returns in equilibrium. We confirm our theory by analyzing the sample of US equity active managed mutual funds and find significant evidence of decreasing returns to scale at the fund level as well as negative excess returns to investors in equilibrium states.

description: In the recourse of the following dissertation there is a presentation and an analysis of both the issue of incidental findings, which originate at the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure concerning the specific investigations, and also the way these investigations can be utilized. Initially, there is an introduction of the relevant terminology and the categorizations of the incidental findings. Following , there is an analysis of the fundamental characteristics of the specific investigations, according to the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure. The analysis of individual matters concerning evidentiary prohibitions and their categorization helped for the understanding of the issue of the following chapter, namely the use of the incidental findings during the procedure of taking evidence. Specifically, the rule and its exceptions concerning the evidentiary usage of both authentic and non incidental findings, the legislative provisions for the evidentiary usage of the incidental findings in the framework of specific investigations as well as the provisions concerning the evidentiary usage of incidental findings in the framework of the removal of confidentiality of communications.
