description: The unitarity triangle can be determined by means of two measurements of its sides or angles. Assuming the same relative errors on the angles $(α,β,γ)$ and the sides $(R_b,R_t)$, we find that the pairs $(γ,β)$ and $(γ,R_b)$ are most efficient in determining $(\bar\varrho,\barη)$ that describe the apex of the unitarity triangle. They are followed by $(α,β)$, $(α,R_b)$, $(R_t,β)$, $(R_t,R_b)$ and $(R_b,β)$. As the set $\vus$, $\vcb$, $R_t$ and $β$ appears to be the best candidate for the fundamental set of flavour violating parameters in the coming years, we show various constraints on the CKM matrix in the $(R_t,β)$ plane. Using the best available input we determine the universal unitarity triangle for models with minimal flavour violation (MFV) and compare it with the one in the Standard Model. We present allowed ranges for $\sin 2β$, $\sin 2α$, $γ$, $R_b$, $R_t$ and $ΔM_s$ within the Standard Model and MFV models. We also update the allowed range for the function $F_{tt}$ that parametrizes various MFV-models.

description: This thesis seeks to examine the compatibility between political demands associated with Tamil nationalism in Sri Lanka over the 20th century and what the international community was prepared to grant. It does this by simultaneously examining the contiguous stories of Tamil nationalism in Sri Lanka and the right to self-determination more generally over the course of the 20th century and up until the early 21st century, when the Sri Lankan civil war ended. It divides the time period into 3 sections to simultaneously compare the evolution of Tamil nationalism and transformation of the right to self-determination. It concludes that the demands associated with Tamil nationalism have, throughout the 20th century and early 21st century, always been incompatible with what the West was prepared to give them.

Two-dimensional materials

description: Understanding the properties of materials is essential for control of their behaviour for future applications. Devices based on two-dimensional van der Waals materials have wide-ranging technological possibilities, from computer components to light-emitting diodes and sensors. Over the last twenty years, these potential applications have begun to be explored experimentally, and a variety of materials have been studied in monolayer form, including semiconductors, superconductors and, more recently, magnetic materials. These are necessary for realising spintronic devices, which would offer higher performance and lower energy loss than existing charge-based technologies. However, two-dimensional materials are currently far less well understood than silicon, the principal material in modern electronic devices. For a complete understanding of their behaviour, investigation using a range of experimental and theoretical techniques is necessary. In this thesis I present the setup of an ultra-high vacuum scanning tunnelling microscope (STM), compatible with molecular beam epitaxy and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy facilities, and capable of measuring the structural and electronic properties of monolayer samples at low temperature. This STM is used to study thin film samples of the magnetic materials chromium selenide and chromium telluride. The results are compared with theoretical calculations of the electronic structure and simulated scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) images. I also present STM measurements of bulk Fe₃GeTe₂, investigating its electronic and magnetic properties. For these materials I show how experimental and theoretical methods can be combined to determine crystal structures, interpret electron scattering patterns and investigate the effects of magnetic order and electron correlations on the band structure. I also explore applications of machine learning in the analysis of STM images, using convolutional neural networks to detect features on the surfaces of PdCrO₂ and sulphur-doped FeSe. The demonstration of the application of these techniques to study the properties of two-dimensional materials provides the methods for future investigations.

description: The integration between Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and Performance Management System (PMS) has become a crucial process for managing environmental complexity in companies. In this context, in order to contribute to the research field, this paper follows two purposes: (1) to identify the most relevant risk dimensions, and connected risk drivers, perceived in managerial practices; and (2) to provide a suitable way to integrate ERM and PMS in supporting the strategic decision-making process. Based on semi-structured interviews with a total of 75 senior and middle managers from 25 different Italian companies, the authors developed a conceptual model to support the corporate transition to integrate ERM and PMS processes, built on a specific set of Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) that can enable them to achieve economically and environmentally sound performance.

description: Background: People with disabilities are facing not just health problems; they also experience restriction of participation due to various barriers. However, there is limited knowledge of which factors can be important to their community participation. Aim: This study investigated the factors that are associated with community participation of people with disabilities. Methods: A sample of 270 people with disabilities (aged range 18–55 years) recruited randomly through the “Turkish People with Disabilities Association”. This study, followed a survey design, took place in 15 cities in Turkey and a city of Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. Community Integration Questionnaire (CIQ), Functional Independence Measure, Measure of Quality of the Environment, Leisure Satisfaction Scale, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and Short-Form-12 were used. A stepwise multiple regression analysis was conducted to analyze the relationship of the dependent variable (CIQ) with the factors. Results: The results indicated that the community participation was importantly associated with employment and educational status, functional level, quality of life and satisfaction from leisure activities (p p Conclusions: The study provides a rich description of the multifaced nature of participation and its association with the factors such as employment, education, and leisure. Moreover, in terms of these factors and community participation, wheelchair users were the most disadvantaged group of people with disabilities at different mobility level.

Biology--Study and teaching (Higher)

description: While it is well established that pedagogies purposefully linking subject matter to students’ cultural contexts and prior knowledge can help students learn subject matter, little is known about practices for so doing in undergraduate biology courses enrolling substantial numbers of racially, culturally, and otherwise diverse students. This study sought to understand how four biology instructors of primarily Black and Hispanic students enact a form of teaching that draws out and uses knowledge from and about students’ lives—what I refer to as students’ culturally informed prior knowledge—to help students learn key subject-matter ideas in biology. It also examined how instructors managed their efforts to teach in this way and how they portrayed their reasons for so doing. The study derived several insights. One, instructors can connect important subject-matter ideas, in the study of biology, to facets of students’ daily lives, using the latter to advance students’ understanding of the former. Thus, the teaching of college-level biology with knowledge drawn from students’ lives is more than an aspiration. It can and—per my study—does occur. It is then possible to teach college-level biology with knowledge drawn from students’ lives. Two, to enact such teaching, instructors can strive to draw comparisons between topics that are concrete and familiar to students and new subject-matter ideas to make the latter comprehensible to them. Three, instructors can connect subject matter to their students’ physiological experiences, treating students’ thinking about their bodies as a form of prior knowledge. Four, instructors can call students’ commonly accepted yet incomplete or unexamined ideas and beliefs into question to facilitate their learning of subject-matter ideas. Five, instructors’ efforts to teach using knowledge from students’ lives can include planning and forethought—but also improvisation while teaching. Six, a desire to make the subject matter of their course relatable to students can inspire instructors to teach using knowledge from students’ lives. The study recommends (a) changes in institutional policy toward supporting faculty in efforts to teach using knowledge from students’ lives, and (b) future research into teaching of biology and other STEM subjects that takes into account students’ prior knowledge.
Preliminary Analysis of the Failure Process of a Tailings Dam

description: Motivated by recent high-profile tailings storage facility (TSF) failures around the globe, the tailings and mine waste community is actively working to identify potential triggering mechanisms for those tragedies. Case histories are a valuable resource to understand triggering mechanisms. This paper presents a preliminary analysis of a tailings dam failure that occurred over two decades ago, which released about 283,000 cubic meters of tailings and non-mineralized mine rock along a 274-meter-long section of the westfacing slope. The released mass flowed downstream for about 610 meters. The failure took place at a location where waste rock was being placed on top of tailings. Specifically, the rapid placement of a second 15-meter lift of waste rock likely led to an undrained failure in the tailings due to a lack of time for excess porewater pressure (PWP) dissipation. In this study, limit equilibrium (LE) analysis was adopted. Excess PWP within the tailings before the triggering of the failure was taken into account by assigned B-bar values. In addition, a LE analysis strategy considering strength reduction and failure surface evolution (from a local rotational shear failure to a global breach) was performed to understand the progression of the failure. Analysis results highlighted the following two key aspects: (1) the failure was correctly captured through LE analysis when the drainage conditions, or the excess PWP, was well quantified; and (2) a reasonable progression of the failure can be verified through LE analysis considering strength loss in the tailings. These findings affirm the capability of the LE analysis despite its simplicity. Furthermore, this study provides a valuable case to expand the current case history-based liquefaction flow failure database.

description: Few-shot classification refers to learning a classifier for new classes given only a few examples. While a plethora of models have emerged to tackle it, we find the procedure and datasets that are used to assess their progress lacking. To address this limitation, we propose Meta-Dataset: a new benchmark for training and evaluating models that is large-scale, consists of diverse datasets, and presents more realistic tasks. We experiment with popular baselines and meta-learners on Meta-Dataset, along with a competitive method that we propose. We analyze performance as a function of various characteristics of test tasks and examine the models' ability to leverage diverse training sources for improving their generalization. We also propose a new set of baselines for quantifying the benefit of meta-learning in Meta-Dataset. Our extensive experimentation has uncovered important research challenges and we hope to inspire work in these directions.

description: This ethnographic study investigates conditions in which groups often found to be at odds with each can instead form mutually productive and supportive relationships. As an Anglophone West Indian immigrant man myself, I am personally interested in how members of my group find success in the US and fit into the larger US African descendant sphere of Black people. As a clergyman, I am professionally interested in how different Black ethnic groups find ways to get along and even appreciate each others’ differences, as part of a larger whole. Since much of my working life is keyed to creating conditions for a positive climate in which people can be the best of themselves, I hypothesized that in the right environment groups known to be suspicious of and stereotype each other, and even engage in outright conflict, could reach a workable resolution over time. That of Afro Caribbeans and Southern African Americans presented an exemplary case. To investigate whether this positive outcome was possible in the right conditions, I selected St Albans, Queens, 1965-present, as a site to conduct research that would help me learn a) how Anglophone Afro Caribbean immigrants made successful places for themselves in the US and the neighborhood; b) from their point of view, found paths to acceptance and even mutual appreciation of African Americans of Southern migrant backgrounds; and c) test whether particular characteristics of a neighborhood environment offer support for mutual acceptance and appreciation, without either group having to give up what it culturally values. The study found that because of several factors St. Albans indeed promoted a context which fostered getting along, and even getting along well. These included sufficient employment and housing opportunities, similarities in income and middle class status, numerous churches that reinforced positive values, and the fact that the racial tensions characteristic of many parts of the US were not prevalent in the daily life of the neighborhood.

Quantum-coherence-enhanced subradiance in a chiral-coupled atomic chain

description: We theoretically study the quantum-coherence-enhanced subradiance in a chiral-coupled atomic chain with nonreciprocal decay channels. The collective radiation in this one-dimensional (1D) nanophotonics system results from the resonant dipole-dipole interactions (RDDI) in 1D reservoirs, which allow infinite-range couplings between atoms. When single photon interacts with part of the atomic chain from a side excitation, the subradiant decay can be further reduced when highly correlated states are initially excited. The excitation plateau in the decay process can emerge due to the ordered population exchanges, which presents one distinctive signature of long-range and light-induced atom-atom correlations. Multiple time scales of the decay behaviors also show up due to multiple scattering of light transmissions and reflections in the chain. We further investigate the effect of atomic position fluctuations, and find that the cascaded scheme with uni-directional coupling is more resilient to the fluctuations, while the overall decay constant can be increased due to large deviations. Our results present a fundamental study on the subradiance and light-induced atom-atom correlations in such 1D nanophotonics platforms, and offer rich opportunities in potential applications of quantum storage of photons.

description: This thesis defines a previously unstudied type of residential building characteristic of the development of New York City’s outer boroughs in the 1910s and 1920s, the “Tapestry Brick dwelling.” It establishes its significance through two neighborhood case studies in Brooklyn: Windsor Terrace and Northeast Flatbush. The Tapestry Brick dwelling is a two-story brick residence, attached or semidetached, ornamented with patterned brick and small stone details in the façade, and a corniceless, decoratively shaped parapet. The Tapestry Brick dwelling arose in the 1910s as a stylistic innovation in one- and twofamily row houses. In the 1920s, it became a common form in new, more distant neighborhoods such as Northeast Flatbush, developed following the expansion of the subway. Here, immigrant architects of chiefly Russian Jewish origin designed Tapestry Brick dwellings to house two or four families, for developers and residents of this new immigrant enclave. The thesis concludes that, as a significant architectural element of the development of New York City and the history of its immigrant communities, Tapestry Brick dwellings are worthy of preservation. It suggests that, as a neighborhood developed coherently and primarily of Tapestry Brick dwellings, which remains largely intact, Northeast Flatbush is a potential candidate as a historic district.

description: This thesis analyzes how intersectional failures during the development of drug and public housing policy and law diminish their subjects’ legal and human rights. Racialized narratives developed throughout United States history define both public housing and drug usage. These histories not only morph how the Federal Government perceives public housing as a space and drugs as an object, but also how they change the nature in which government handles both public housing residents and drug users, as subjects of the law. As a result, the actions of Congress in both of these realms have undue negative impact on public housing residents, who are disproportionately people of color. Through War on Drugs acts, which place public housing in the criminal justice system, such as The AntiDrug Abuse Act of 1988, The CranstonGonzalez National Affordable Housing Act, and The HOPE Act of 1996, public housing residents’ Constitutional rights to due process and privacy have been severely limited. For these people, and for women of color specifically, this lessened rights status has not only limited their access to safe and affordable housing, but has also created a situational reality within which the law takes advantage of them due to their personal identity.

description: The Henderson Tailings Storage Facility (TSF) is an active facility located near Parshall, Colorado, consisting of two dams – 1 Dam and 3 Dam. The upstream method of construction has been used for tailings deposition since the mid-1970s. This paper presents the results of the seismic evaluation of 1 Dam using multiple constitutive modeling methodologies: an uncoupled Mohr-Coulomb approach and a fully coupled critical state-compatible PM4Sand/Silt approach. The analyses were completed to study the seismic response of the tailings embankment under the Maximum Design Earthquake (MDE) with a return period of 10,000 years. The numerical analyses showed that the results of the fully coupled, effective stress PM4 models were generally consistent with the uncoupled Mohr-Coulomb models. The PM4 models have the capability to estimate the generation of excess pore water pressure and onset of soil liquefaction during the application of the input ground motion. Subsequent zones of tailings materials that were prone to soil liquefaction or strength loss were identified based on two criteria: 1) excess pore water pressure ratio; and 2) shear strain in the PM4 modeling. This study provides valuable insights into the methods used to estimate seismic response of the Henderson TSF and highlights the importance of using properly calibrated advanced constitutive modeling methodologies to capture the complex response of tailings materials under seismic loading. The fully coupled models were capable of capturing the hysteretic soil response, including stress-strain response and accumulation of plastic shear strains, providing confidence in the predicted modes of deformation and informing the design and management of the facility.

Gewiß, der Schlag war ungemein schlau vorbereitet und mit unerhörter Brutalität und Konsequenz zuende geführt worden; politisch aber hatte er nur die eine Folge, daß die Römer von nun an noch systematischer Germaniens Unterwerfung betrieben und die Deutschen in den Jahrzehnten vor und nach der Wende zum 20. Jahrhundert diese Schlacht zum Anlaß für einen verachtenswerten Chauvinismus nahmen und für ein paar scheußliche Denkmäler.
Doch lassen wir diese allgemeinen Betrachtungen und wenden wir uns der Frage zu, wie denn aus den antiken Berichten und modernen Forschungen und Grabungen Wissenschaft zu gewinnen wäre. Ich will diese Frage heute so beantworten, daß ich zunächst die historischen, aus antiken Quellen stammenden Fakten vorführe, dann die antiken Berichte selbst und zuletzt dann zeige, was man inzwischen an dem Schlachtort selbst gefunden hat. Das bedeutet: inwieweit der Grabungsbefund die antiken Berichte stützt oder widerlegt.

description: The most important features of the proposed spherical gravitational wave detectors are closely linked with their symmetry. Hollow spheres share this property with solid ones, considered in the literature so far, and constitute an interesting alternative for the realization of an omnidirectional gravitational wave detector. In this paper we address the problem of how a hollow elastic sphere interacts with an incoming gravitational wave and find an analytical solution for its normal mode spectrum and response, as well as for its energy absorption cross sections. It appears that this shape can be designed having relatively low resonance frequencies (about 200 Hz) yet keeping a large cross section, so its frequency range overlaps with the projected large interferometers. We also apply the obtained results to discuss the performance of a hollow sphere as a detector for a variety of gravitational wave signals.

description: Human phenotype-gene relations are fundamental to fully understand the origin of some phenotypic abnormalities and their associated diseases. Biomedical literature is the most comprehensive source of these relations, however, we need Relation Extraction tools to automatically recognize them. Most of these tools require an annotated corpus and to the best of our knowledge, there is no corpus available annotated with human phenotype-gene relations. This paper presents the Phenotype-Gene Relations (PGR) corpus, a silver standard corpus of human phenotype and gene annotations and their relations. The corpus consists of 1712 abstracts, 5676 human phenotype annotations, 13835 gene annotations, and 4283 relations. We generated this corpus using Named-Entity Recognition tools, whose results were partially evaluated by eight curators, obtaining a precision of 87.01%. By using the corpus we were able to obtain promising results with two state-of-the-art deep learning tools, namely 78.05% of precision.

description: Several studies indicate that gender is often portrayed stereotypically in mathematics textbooks worldwide. Based on the premise that such representations need to be examined with particular attention to the cultural context within which they exist, this study focuses on the upper-primary mathematics textbooks of the Republic of Cyprus, which are nationally produced and mandatory for all public schools. Specifically, the eight individual parts of grades 5 and 6 (four for each grade) were examined. By approaching both written and visual references from a critical discourse analysis perspective, the findings highlight that (a) gender is represented within the binary system, and (b) there are essential differences in depictions of men and women across three dimensions: professional status, everyday activities, and references to real people. These differences allude to stereotypical performative aspects of gender in this specific socio-cultural context. In closing, I make recommendations for future research directions in this area.

description: We explore the sensitivity of photon-beam experiments to axion-like particles (ALPs) with QCD-scale masses whose dominant coupling to the Standard Model is either to photons or gluons. We introduce a novel data-driven method that eliminates the need for knowledge of nuclear form factors or the photon-beam flux when considering coherent Primakoff production off a nuclear target, and show that data collected by the PrimEx experiment could substantially improve the sensitivity to ALPs with $0.03 \lesssim m_a \lesssim 0.3$ GeV. Furthermore, we explore the potential sensitivity of running the GlueX experiment with a nuclear target and its planned PrimEx-like calorimeter. For the case where the dominant coupling is to gluons, we study photoproduction for the first time, and predict the future sensitivity of the GlueX experiment using its nominal proton target. Finally, we set world-leading limits for both the ALP-gluon coupling and the ALP-photon coupling based on public mass plots.

description: We present exact solutions in Einstein-Yang-Mills-Dirac theories with gauge groups SU(2) and SU(4) in Robertson-Walker space-time $R \times S^3 $, which are symmetric under the action of the group SO(4) of spatial rotations. Our approach is based on the dimensional reduction method for gauge and gravitational fields and relates symmetric solutions in EYMD theory to certain solutions of an effective dynamical system. We interpret our solutions as cosmological solutions with an oscillating Yang-Mills field passing between topologically distinct vacua. The explicit form of the solution for spinor field shows that its energy changes the sign during the evolution of the Yang-Mills field from one vacuum to the other, which can be considered as production or annihilation of fermions. Among the obtained solutions there is also a static sphaleron-like solution, which is a cosmological analogue of the first Bartnik-McKinnon solution in the presence of fermions.

description: Nach einem Rückblick auf die Historie der Entdeckung des Phänomens der Photoleitung, das als "experimentum crucis" für die Einordnung eines Festkörpers als "Halbleiter" gilt, wird die Entwicklung der mikrophysikalischen Deutung dieses "inneren lichtelektrischen Effektes" vorgestellt. Dabei spielen Gesichtspunkte wie Quantenausbeute, Löcherleitung im Valenzband und die Bildung eines Excitons eine besondere Rolle. Für die Photonenabsorption kann es bei der Überlagerung von Anregungsmechanismen beim optischen Interbandübergang zu einer "Verzweigung" kommen, so daß bei der Bildung von Excitonen ein selektiver Quantenausbeutedefekt im Spektralverlauf der Photoleitung erscheint. Der Abbau des Excitonen-Anregungszustandes unterliegt seinerseits einer temperaturabhängigen "Verzweigung". Die Vielfalt der darauf basierenden photoelektrischen Erscheinungen wird vorgestellt. Dabei spielt die Photoleitung im Magnetfeld ("Magnetophotoleitung") eine besondere Rolle, weil die Strukturierung der Bänder in Landau-Niveaus zu einem "oszillatorischen" Photoleitungsspektrum führt, dessen (positive oder negative) Korrelation zur oszillatorischen Magnetoabsorption zahlreiche mikrophysikalische Parameter der Elektronenzustände im Halbleiter zu bestimmen gestattet.

description: The abrupt phase change of light at metasurfaces provides high flexibility in wave manipulation without the need of accumulation of propagating phase through dispersive materials. In the linear optical regime, one important application field of metasurfaces is imaging by planar metalenses, which enables device miniaturization and aberration correction compared to conventional optical microlens systems. With the incorporation of nonlinear responses into passive metasurfaces, optical functionalities of metalenses are anticipated to be further enriched, leading to completely new applications areas. Here, we demonstrate imaging with nonlinear metalenses that combine the function of an ultrathin planar lens with simultaneous frequency conversion. With such nonlinear metalenses, we experimentally demonstrate imaging of objects with near infrared light while the image appears in the second harmonic signal of visible frequency range. Furthermore, the functionality of these nonlinear metalenses can be modified by switching the handedness of the circularly polarized fundamental wave, leading to either real or virtual nonlinear image formation. Nonlinear metalenses do not only enable infrared light imaging through a visible detector but also have the ability to modulate nonlinear optical responses through an ultrathin metasurface device while the fundamental wave remains unaffected, which offers the capability of nonlinear information processing with novel optoelectronic devices.

description: Lesões por pressão (LPs) decorrem da pressão intensa e/ou prolongada em combinação com o cisalhamento local. Apesar da ocorrência de LPS ser considerada um evento adverso que pode, na maioria das vezes, ser passível de prevenção, existem ocasiões em que as condições do paciente as tornam inevitáveis. Este estudo relata experiências no tratamento de LPs de diferentes etiologias. Os pacientes foram atendidos pela equipe multidisciplinar do Programa Melhor em Casa de Jaguariúna-SP. Caso 1 - homem, 19 anos, vítima de espancamento, resultando em traumatismo cranioencefálico grave, permanecendo em coma por alguns dias. Estava tetraplégico, em reabilitação e fazia uso de órteses nos membros inferiores (MIs), que causou compressão no maléolo direito, culminando em LP. Tecido necrótico foi removido por meio de desbridamento instrumental e iniciada limpeza diária com soro fisiológico (SF) 0,9% e aplicação diária de fina camada de creme à base de AH 0,2%. Caso 2 - mulher, 79 anos, tabagista, obesa, portadora de hipertensão arterial sistêmica, diabetes tipo 2, DPOC, osteoporose, anemia, fratura no fêmur e LP em região sacral de estágio 2 e no ísquio direito. Fazia uso, sem sucesso, de curativos envolvendo limpeza diária com SF 0,9% e aplicação de ácidos graxos essenciais (AGE) no tratamento da LP. Foi iniciado protocolo com limpeza diária com SF 0,9% e posterior aplicação diária de fina camada de creme à base de AH 0,2%. Após 15 a 34 dias de tratamento com AH tópico, foi verificada a completa reparação cutânea das LPs, revelando efetividade do protocolo empregado.

description: Pressure ulcers (PU) arise from the intense and / or prolonged pressure associated with local shear. Although the occurrence of PU is considered an adverse event that can generally be preventable, there are occasions when the conditions of the patient make them unavoidable. This study reports experience in the treatment of patient with PU in the right malleolus with the use of 0.2% HA cream. The patient was assisted by the multidisciplinary team of the Programa Melhor em Casa de Jaguariúna-SP. Young male, 19, beating victim, resulting in severe cranioencephalic trauma, remaining in coma for a few days. He was quadriplegic, under rehabilitation and used orthesis in the lower limbs (LLs), which compressed the right malleolus, resulting in PU. Necrotic tissue was removed by means of instrumental debridement and daily cleansing with 0.9% saline solution and daily application of a thin layer of 0.2% HA cream. After 34 days of treatment with topical HA, the complete skin repair of the PU was verified, revealing the effectiveness of the protocol used.
