description: We reconstruct shear maps and angular power spectra from simulated weakly lensed total intensity (TT) and polarised (EB) maps of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) anisotropies, obtained using Born approximated ray-tracing through the N-body simulated Cold Dark Matter (CDM) structures in the Millennium Simulations (MS). We compare the recovered signal with the $Λ$CDM prediction, on the whole interval of angular scales which is allowed by the finite box size, extending from the degree scale to the arcminute, by applying a quadratic estimator in the flat sky limit; we consider PRISM-like instrumental specification for future generation CMB satellites, corresponding to arcminute angular resolution of 3.2' and sensitivity of 2.43 $μ$K-arcmin. -arcmin. The noise bias in the simulations closely follows the estimator prediction, becoming dominated by limits in the angular resolution for the EB signal, at l${\simeq}$1500. The de-biased signal shows no visible departure from predictions of the weak lensing power within uncertainties, when considering TT and EB data singularly. In particular, the reconstruction precision reaches the level of a few percent in bins with $Δ$l ${\simeq}$100 in the angular multiple interval 1000

title: The rise and fall of online immortality services and the mediation of mortality in the digital age
Creators: name: Kiel, Paula
Publisher: name: London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)
Year: 2023

description: This thesis considers how digital communication mediates mortality in contemporary western societies by examining online services geared towards dealing with one’s future death. The study’s point of departure is society’s fundamental role in mediating mortality, understood as humans’ awareness of their own inevitable future death. I consider the mediation of mortality as a negotiation of an annihilation-continuity dialectic and establish a conceptual and practical link between media practices and practices of symbolic transcendence. Specifically, the thesis examines the following questions: (1) What practices of leaving traces do online immortality services construct and facilitate? (2) What posthumous relationships between the future-dead and future-survivors are constructed and facilitated by online immortality services? (3) What digital media myths and social imaginaries are evoked by and underlie the practices constructed and facilitated by online immortality services? To address these questions, the thesis employs a multimodal analysis of forty-six online immortality services and analyses twenty in-depth interviews with the founders of these websites. The analysis shows that online immortality services promise their users extensive control over their symbolic posthumous endurance. Yet the thesis argues that online immortality services ironically fail to ‘live up’ to their promise in the face of the very same technological, social, and commercial conditions and imaginaries that led to their emergence. As online immortality services are themselves dying (i.e. failing commercially and going offline), this project becomes one of preservation and conservation of unsuccessful contemporary attempts to thwart death through media. Thus, it highlights the significance of studying failed technologies and vernacular media histories.

description: Λόγω των σημαντικών και απροσδόκητων κοινωνικών και οικονομικών αλλαγών που προκάλεσε η πανδημία COVID-19, των συναισθημάτων φόβου, ανησυχίας, άγχους και των προσαρμοστικών δυσκολιών, ιδίως σε περιόδους αυστηρού εγκλεισμού, πολλοί άνθρωποι στράφηκαν προς το αλκοόλ και τη χρήση ουσιών για να αντιμετωπίσουν αυτούς τους στρεσογόνους παράγοντες. Δυστυχώς, η πανδημία κατέστησε επίσης πιο δύσκολη την πρόσβαση στη θεραπεία των ατόμων με διαταραχή χρήσης ουσιών. Η παρούσα μελέτη στόχο έχει να καταγράψει και διευρενήσει την τάση ως προς το αλκοόλ και τις εθιστικές ουσίες, συγκρίνοντας τα προ Covid-19 δεδομένα σε σχέση με αυτά κατά τη διάρκεια της πανδημίας Covid-19, καθώς και την πιθανή αιτιώδη σχέση με διάφορους άλλους ανεξάρτητους παράγοντες, όπως το φύλο, η ηλικία, ο αριθμών των ατόμων του σπιτικού, η ύπαρξη παιδιών, ο βαθμός του εγκλεισμού και άλλα
description: Due to the significant and unexpected social and economic changes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, feelings of fear, anxiety, stress and adaptive difficulties, especially during periods of strict lockdown, many people turned to alcohol and drug use to cope with these stressors. Unfortunately, the pandemic has also made it more difficult for people with substance use disorders to access treatment. This study aims to document and clarify the trend toward alcohol and substance abuse by comparing pre-Covid-19 data to that during the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as the potential causal relationship with several other independent factors, such as gender, age, number of people in the household, having children, degree of incarceration, and others

Τα τελευταία αποτελούνται από μεταρυόλιθους και τουρβιδίτες. Οι τουρβιδίτες αποτελούνται από εναλλαγές μεταψαμμιτών και μεταργιλικών πετρωμάτων, πάνω στα οποία επωθούνται ασβεστόλιθοι Τριαδικής ηλικίας. Τα πετρώματα της περιοχής μελέτης έχουν υποστεί περιοχική μεταμόρφωση, πρασινοσχιστολιθικής φάσης. Επαφές εντοπίστηκαν μεταξύ γάββρου και τουρβιδιτικών πετρωμάτων, καθώς και μεταξύ γάββρου και μεταηφαιστειακών πετρωμάτων, και συγκεκριμένα μεταρυόλιθου. Όπως προκύπτει από τις παρατηρήσεις και τις αναλύσεις, οι δύο επαφές είναι τεκτονικές. Στην επαφή μεταξύ γάββρου και μεταρυόλιθου, το πέτρωμα εμφανίζεται σκουρόχρωμο, λεπτόκοκκο και ιδιαίτερα σκληρό. Ορυκτολογικά αποτελείται κυρίως από χαλαζία, χλωρίτη, μαγνητίτη και γρανάτη, ενώ εντοπίζονται πλαγιόκλαστο και απατίτης. Ο γρανάτης, ο μαγνητίτης και ο χλωρίτης εμφανίζονται πλούσιοι σε μαγγάνιο. Τα ορυκτά αυτά σχηματίζονται στις μικρορωγμώσεις του μεταρυόλιθου πιθανόν από ρευστά μεταμορφικής προέλευσης κατά την περιοχική μεταμόρφωση των πετρωμάτων, χωρίς να αποκλείεται και ο σχηματισμός τους από μετεωρικά και υπόγεια νερά.

description: The study area belongs to the Circum Rhodope belt. It consists of ophiolites, mainly gabbros and metabasalts, which are overthrusted by metavolcanosedimentary rocks. The latter comprise metarhyolites and turbidites. Turbidites are composed of alternations of metasandstones and metargillaceous rocks, which are overthrusted by Triassic limestones. All rocks have been affected by grenschist facies metamorphism. Contacts have been observed between gabbro and turbidites, as well as between gabbro and metarhyolite. Οbservations and analyses have led to the conclusion that both contacts are tectonic. At the contact between gabbro and metarhyolite, the rock becomes dark-coloured, fine-grained and very hard. Mineralogically, it consists mainly of quartz, chlorite, magnetite and garnet, with few plagioclase and apatite crystals. Garnet, magnetite and chlorite appear to be rich in manganese. These minerals are formed in the microcracks of the metarhyolite possibly by fluids of metamorphic origin during the regional metamorphism of the rocks, without excluding their formation from meteoric and groundwater. The ophiolitic suite is considered to be the Mn source

description: Among the optical degrees of freedom, the orbital angular momentum of light provides unique properties, including mechanical torque action with applications for light manipulation, enhanced sensitivity in imaging techniques and potential high-density information coding for optical communication systems. Recent years have also seen a tremendous interest in exploiting orbital angular momentum at the single-photon level in quantum information technologies. In this endeavor, here we demonstrate the implementation of a quantum memory for quantum bits encoded in this optical degree of freedom. We generate various qubits with computer-controlled holograms, store and retrieve them on demand. We further analyse the retrieved states by quantum tomography and thereby demonstrate fidelities exceeding the classical benchmark, confirming the quantum functioning of our storage process. Our results provide an essential capability for future networks exploring the promises of orbital angular momentum of photons for quantum information applications.

description: The Chinese and Vietnamese trade unions are facing a transition phase within a context of implementation of the market economy in both countries and its integration into the global world economy. Processes of industrial action are already taken place, exceeding the “official” political and union structures, with a great uncertainty about their future developments and outcomes. This article addresses a critical view of this phenomenon, based on the experience of union cooperation between European unions and the unions of both countries and on the findings from specific research developed in Vietnam.

description: Beginning with a brief historical overview of spatial audio and music practices, this chapter looks at principles of sound spatialization, algorithms for composing and rendering spatial sound and music, and different techniques of spatial source positioning and sound space manipulation. These operations include composing with abstract objects in a sound scene, creating compound sounds using source clusters, altering spatial characteristics by means of spectral sound decomposition, and the manipulation of artificial acoustic spaces. The chapter goes on to discuss practical issues of live spatialization and, through an example piece, the ways a number of different algorithms collaborate in the constitution of a generative audio-visual installation with surround audio and video. Finally, the challenges and pitfalls of using spatialization and some of the common reasons for failure are brought to attention.

description: We examine the consequences of Lorentz violation during slow-roll inflation. We consider a canonical scalar inflaton coupled, through its potential, to the divergence of a fixed-norm timelike vector field, or "aether." The vector is described by Einstein-aether theory, a vector-tensor model of gravitational Lorentz violation. We derive and analyze the cosmological perturbation equations for the metric, inflaton, and aether. If the scale of Lorentz violation is sufficiently small compared to the Planck mass, and the strength of the scalar-aether coupling is suitably large, then the spin-0 and spin-1 perturbations grow exponentially and spoil the inflationary background. The effects of such a coupling on the CMB are too small to be visible to current or near-future CMB experiments; unusually, no isocurvature modes are produced at first order in a perturbative expansion around the aether norm. These results are discussed for both a general potential and a worked example, $m^2 ϕ^2$ inflation with a quadratic scalar-aether coupling term.

Suicidality and aggression are two of the most common cases that the psychiatrist is called upon to manage in the emergency department (ED) in child and adolescent psychiatry , worldwide. These are clinical presentations and symptoms, and not mental diagnoses, and they constitute truly urgent situations in which the safety of either the patient and/or those around him is at risk. This paper aims to the presentation of the theoretical and research literature review research that was implemented. The aim is to present the basic principles and guidelines that exist in the modern literature for the assessment and management of these two common cases in the psychiatric ED. and to provide a theoretical basis for the Child Psychiatrist in the psychiatric emergency service to meet the mental health needs of children and adolescents, with the ultimate aim of improving services in emergency services

description: In a scenario with heavy supersymmetric sfermions and decoupled supersymmetric Higgs sector, a well tempered neutralino is the remaining candidate for thermal single-component sub-TeV dark matter. Well tempered neutralinos are studied in the context of supersymmetric grand unified theories with third family Yukawa coupling unification. A global chi^2 analysis is performed, including the observables MW, MZ, GF, alpha_em, alpha_s(MZ), Mt, mb(mb), Mtau, b -> s gamma, BR(Bs -> mu^+ mu^-), Mh and Omegah^2. Tensions in simultaneously fitting the Higgs and bottom quark masses while also avoiding gluino mass bounds from the LHC disfavors light Higgsinos with mass < 500 GeV, ruling out light Bino/Higgsino dark matter candidates. Bino/Wino/Higgsino and Bino/Wino candidates fare somewhat better although they are fine-tuned and require departure from GUT scale gaugino mass universality (the example chosen here is the mixed modulus-anomaly pattern). Implications for dark matter direct detection of these models as well as collider signatures are briefly discussed. Independent of the thermal dark matter viability, these models will be severely constrained by the absence of a gluino at the next run of LHC.

Parametric and Non-Parametric Mixture of Regression Models for Agricultural Economic Data

description: The initiative is expected to result in an increase in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) as an outcome of a greater understanding of the association between agricultural factors and economic development. Therefore, the relationships between crop yield, arable land, and GDP are examined in ten Southeast Asian countries from 1960 to 2015. Consequently, techniques such as the Baye factor, a mixture regression model, and a Gaussian process mixture model have been used to analyze the correlations between two or three variables in linear and nonlinear systems. The specific goals of this thesis are to first find the structure of relationships between variables and then construct optimal clusters for the best clusters of relationships between variables discovered through the process of research. The Bayes factors are used to develop a non-parametric model based on the interaction between economic growth, arable land, and GDP per capita in time series data. The experimental results reveal that the dynamic model predicts changes in variables over time. Furthermore, the use of a mixture model for the modelling of heterogeneous and multi-population data has been investigated. This thesis represents a significant strategy for improving our insight into the relationship between agricultural factors and GDP. The prediction equations can be fitted to a revised method of the mixture regression model with two or three variables based on some of the aspects of inference about the unknowns in the models, and we examine the mixture of more complex models, including the representation of maximum likelihood estimation through an expectation-maximisation algorithm (EM). Additionally, the results show the prediction models that are suited to the three variables used in the Gaussain process for estimation purposes. To that end, this work studies how to determine the best explicit function and it discovers suitable models for a group of clusters.

description: Nonlocality is arguably one of the most fundamental and counterintuitive aspects of quantum theory. Nonlocal correlations could, however, be even more nonlocal than quantum theory allows, while still complying with basic physical principles such as no-signaling. So why is quantum mechanics not as nonlocal as it could be? Are there other physical or information-theoretic principles which prohibit this? So far, the proposed answers to this question have been only partially successful, partly because they are lacking genuinely multipartite formulations. In Nat. Comm. 4, 2263 (2013) we introduced the principle of Local Orthogonality (LO), an intrinsically multipartite principle which is satisfied by quantum mechanics but is violated by non-physical correlations. Here we further explore the LO principle, presenting new results and explaining some of its subtleties. In particular, we show that the set of no-signaling boxes satisfying LO is closed under wirings, present a classification of all LO inequalities in certain scenarios, show that all extremal tripartite boxes with two binary measurements per party violate LO, and explain the connection between LO inequalities and unextendible product bases.

description: Favorably scaling numerical time-dependent many-electron techniques such as time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) with adiabatic exchange-correlation potentials typically fail in capturing highly correlated electron dynamics. We propose a method based on natural orbitals, i.e., the eigenfunctions of the one-body reduced density matrix, that is almost as inexpensive numerically as adiabatic TDDFT, but which is capable of describing correlated phenomena such as doubly excited states, autoionization, Fano profiles in the photoelectron spectra, and strong-field ionization in general. Equations of motion (EOM) for natural orbitals and their occupation numbers have been derived earlier. We show that by using renormalized natural orbitals (RNO) both can be combined into one equation governed by a hermitian effective Hamiltonian. We specialize on the two-electron spin-singlet system, known as being a "worst case" testing ground for TDDFT, and employ the widely used, numerically exactly solvable, one-dimensional helium model atom (in a laser field) to benchmark our approach. The solution of the full, nonlinear EOM for the RNO is plagued by instabilities, and resorting to linear response is not an option for the ultimate goal to study nonperturbative dynamics in intense laser fields. We therefore make two rather bold approximations: we employ the initial-state-"frozen" effective RNO Hamiltonian for the time-propagation and truncate the number of RNO to only two per spin. Surprisingly, it turns out that even with these strong approximations we obtain a highly accurate ground state, reproduce doubly-excited states, and autoionization.

description: Numerical simulations and experiments on nanostructures out of equilibrium usually exhibit strong finite size and finite measuring time $t_m$ effects. We discuss how these affect the determination of the full counting statistics for a general quantum impurity problem. We find that, while there are many methods available to improve upon finite-size effects, any real-time simulation or experiment will still be subject to finite time effects: in short size matters, but time is limiting. We show that the leading correction to the cumulant generating function (CGF) at zero temperature for single-channel quantum impurity problems goes as $\ln t_m$ and is universally related to the steady state CGF itself for non-interacting systems. We then give detailed numerical evidence for the case of the self-dual interacting resonant level model that this relation survives the addition of interactions. This allows the extrapolation of finite measuring time in our numerics to the long-time limit, to excellent agreement with Bethe-ansatz results.

title: Medical assistance in dying (MAiD) for Canadians whose sole underlying condition is a mental disorder: an examination of the validity of their autonomy
Creators: name: Tamale, Andrew
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2023

description: Canadians with a mental disorder as their sole underlying condition (MDSUMC) are still unable to access medical assistance in dying (MAiD). This is due to the sunset clause in bill C-7 that temporarily prohibits MAiD MDSUMC until March 17th, 2024. Proponents of MAiD MDSUMC argue that prohibiting all Canadians with a mental illness from accessing MAiD violates their autonomy. This thesis challenges this argument, asserting that the autonomy of a significant portion of Canadians with mental illness is not valid due to the significant barriers to mental health care that reduce the voluntariness of their requests for MAiD. It also argues for the paternalistic prohibition of MAiD MDSUMC to ensure proper evaluation of the voluntariness of MAiD decisions. The argument is laid out in four chapters. The first chapter traces the legislative evolution of MAiD in Canada. It also describes the burden of mental illness and the state of mental health care in the country. It explores two barriers to mental health care: long waiting times and stigma. Chapter two establishes a link between the two barriers of interest and intolerable suffering, a core aspect in evaluating MAiD requests. Chapter three demonstrates how, by worsening the experience of mental illness to intolerable proportions, the two barriers diminish the autonomy of Canadians with MDSUMC regarding their MAiD decisions. It employs the socio-relational notion of autonomy to present this argument. The final chapter defends the paternalistic prohibition of access to MAiD MDSUMC. It argues that paternalism is justified when there are sufficient reasons to suspect autonomy failure, which occurs when an individual is stopped from pursuing their authentic goals or is forced to alter them. It asserts that the barriers to mental health care a strong enough factor to alter the goals of Canadians with mental illnesses.

description: We report recent results on the impact of asymmetric dark matter (DM) particles on low-mass stars. First, we found that the small convective core expected in stars with masses between 1.1 and 1.3 Msun is suppressed due to DM cooling. Moreover, stars with masses below 1 Msun have their central temperatures and densities more strongly influenced by DM than in the solar case. We were able to put limits to the DM mass and spin-dependent DM-proton scattering cross section by comparing the modelling of the nearby star Alpha Cen B with photometric, spectroscopic and asteroseismic observations.

description: We study the transport through the Kitaev's chain with incommensurate potentials coupled to two normal leads by the numerical operator method. We find a quantized linear conductance of $e^2/h$, which is independent to the disorder strength and the gate voltage in a wide range, signaling the Majorana bound states. While the incommensurate disorder suppresses the current at finite voltage bias, and then narrows the linear response regime of the $I-V$ curve which exhibits two plateaus corresponding to the superconducting gap and the band edge respectively. The linear conductance abruptly drops to zero as the disorder strength reaches the critical value $2+2Δ$ with $Δ$ the p-wave pairing amplitude, corresponding to the transition from the topological superconducting phase to the Anderson localized phase. Changing the gate voltage will also cause an abrupt drop of the linear conductance by driving the chain into the topologically trivial superconducting phase, whose $I-V$ curve exhibits an exponential shape.
