description: Cascading speciation is predicted to occur when multiple interacting species diverge in parallel as a result of divergence in one species promoting adaptive differentiation in other species. However, there are few examples where ecological interactions among taxa have been shown to result in speciation that cascades across multiple trophic levels. Here, we test for cascading speciation occurring among the Western pine beetle (Dendroctonus brevicomis), its primary host tree (Pinus ponderosa), and the beetle's fungal mutualists (Ceratocystiopsis brevicomi and Entomocorticium sp. B). We assembled genomes for the beetle and a fungal symbiont and then generated reduced representation genomic data (RADseq) from range-wide samples of these three interacting species. Combined with published data for the host tree, we present clear evidence that the tree, the beetle, and the fungal symbionts are all genetically structured into at least two distinct groups that have strongly codiverged with geographical isolation. We then combine our genomic results with diverse population and laboratory-based data to show evidence for reproductive isolation at each level of the cascade and for coevolution of both antagonistic and mutualistic species interactions within this complex network.

description: Massive young stellar objects (MYSOs) with hot cores are classic sources of complex organic molecules. The origins of these molecules in such sources, as well as the small- and large-scale differentiation between nitrogen- and oxygen-bearing complex species, are poorly understood. We aim to use complex molecule abundances toward a chemically less explored class of MYSOs with weak hot organic emission lines to constrain the impact of hot molecular cores and initial ice conditions on the chemical composition toward MYSOs. We use the IRAM 30m and the Submillimeter Array to search for complex organic molecules over 8-16 GHz in the 1~mm atmospheric window toward three MYSOs with known ice abundances, but without luminous molecular hot cores. Complex molecules are detected toward all three sources at comparable abundances with respect to CH$_3$OH to classical hot core sources. The relative importance of CH$_3$CHO, CH$_3$CCH, CH$_3$OCH$_3$, CH$_3$CN, and HNCO differ between the organic-poor MYSOs and hot cores, however. Furthermore, the N-bearing molecules are generally concentrated toward the source centers, while most O- and C-bearing molecules are present both in the center and in the colder envelope. Gas-phase HNCO/CH$_3$OH ratios are tentatively correlated with the ratios of NH$_3$ ice over CH$_3$OH ice in the same lines of sight, which is consistent with new gas-grain model predictions. Hot cores are not required to form complex organic molecules, and source temperature and initial ice composition both seem to affect complex organic distributions toward MYSOs. To quantify the relative impact of temperature and initial conditions requires, however, a larger spatially resolved survey of MYSOs with ice detections.

description: It has been known that an anti-unitary symmetry such as time-reversal or charge conjugation is needed to realize Z2 topological phases in non-interacting systems. Topological insulators and superconducting nanowires are representative examples of such Z2 topological matters. Here we report the first-known Z2 topological phase protected by only unitary symmetries. We show that the presence of a nonsymmorphic space group symmetry opens a possibility to realize Z2 topological phases without assuming any anti-unitary symmetry. The Z2 topological phases are constructed in various dimensions, which are closely related to each other by Hamiltonian mapping. In two and three dimensions, the Z2 phases have a surface consistent with the nonsymmorphic space group symmetry, and thus they support topological gapless surface states. Remarkably, the surface states have a unique energy dispersion with the Mobius twist, which identifies the Z2 phases experimentally. We also provide the relevant structure in the K-theory.

description: Katagami technique Itoire

The Silver Studio Collection at MoDA includes around four hundred Katagami, dating from the early nineteenth century. MoDA’s collection of Katagami is one of the significant public collections of Katagami in Britain.   Many of the Katagami in the collection produced in the late Edo period have 'Itoire' silk reinforcing technique.
This paper explained the method of 'Itoire' reinforcing technique.

Katagami are produced by highly trained artisans. They “carve out” patterns on stencil paper made from traditional Japanese Washi paper.
In patterns with many openwork, there is concern that the delicate stencils will tear during the dyeing process. For this reason, after carving, the layered papers of Katagami are peeled apart into two layers which sandwich extremely thin silk thread held in place by persimmon tannin. After inserting the threads, the layers of Katagami are carefully put back together. This process is called 'Itoire'. The final task is to blow through the carving to remove any excess persimmon tannin, and it has been thought that female artisans breath is best for this step. If this step of thread insertion is not done carefully, the entire painstakingly cut Katagami will be wasted. This task requires expert skill and extraordinary sensitivity.

title: Considerations for Introducing and Practicing Wellness in Harp Pedagogy and Performance

Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries

description: Movement, breath, and intense focus are crucial to the playing of any musical instrument. In addition, these are important areas in many wellness methods. Many harpists are prone to injury from playing, moving their harps, sitting with poor posture, and not warming up the body before playing. By considering and incorporating the wellness practices of ergonomics, Alexander Technique, yoga, meditation, and constructing a conducive learning and practicing environment, the risk of injury may be lowered for harpists. The purpose of this study is to research and present various methods in which harpists can prevent injury. This study will assess the incorporation of wellness into harp pedagogy that involves movement and the prevention of injury, while aiming to support a calm, healthy, and proficient musician. The beginning stages and philosophies of ergonomics, Alexander Technique, yoga, meditation and how they may be applied to harp pedagogy and harpists' routines are discussed within.
Power-law statistics in the velocity fluctuations of Brownian particle in inhomogeneous media and driven by colored noise

description: Nonlinear stochastic differential equations generating signals with 1/f spectrum have been used so far to describe socio-economical systems. In this paper we consider the motion of a Brownian particle in an inhomogeneous environment such that the motion can be described by the equation yielding 1/f spectrum in a broad range of frequencies. The inhomogeneous environment can be a result, for example, of a linear potential affecting the Brownian particle together with the medium where steady state heat transfer is present due to the difference of temperatures at the ends of the medium. The correlation of collisions between the Brownian particle and the surrounding molecules can lead to the situation where the finite correlation time becomes important, thus we have investigated the effect of colored noise in our model. Existence of colored noise leads to the additional restriction of the diffusion and exponential cut-off of the distribution of particle positions. Narrower power law part in the distribution of the particle positions results in the narrower range of frequencies where the spectrum has power law behavior.

description: The Silver Studio Collection at MoDA includes around four hundred Katagami, dating from the early nineteenth century. MoDA’s collection of Katagami is one of the significant public collections of Katagami in Britain. 
My research for the MoDA Katagami project includes analysis of images of the Katagami, including infra-red photography. It is the first time that the technique has been used in England. In 2016 we secured funding from Arts Council England for research on this collection. Our focus is on Katagami as a source of inspiration for artists and designers, both historically and today.
https://moda.mdx.ac.uk/2017/12/06/Katagami-findings/
I gained the majorities of information from photographs of the Katagami.
Photographs avoid undue handling of the stencils and are visually easier to sort and look-up.
Both ordinary and infra-red high definition photographs are required, but infra-red light delivers greater clarity of contrast in the information present. Recycled Washi paper was often used in the making of Katagami during the late Edo period (1780) to the middle Meiji period (1890). Barely discernible under normal light, some of the written letters and documents revealed interesting dating information. Infra-red photography can also improve readability of marks such as stamps, signatures and or handwriting which have faded through age. The merchants who traded Katagami placed their stamps on the Katagami. These assist in identifying the merchant or dying company and in determining dates and geographical origin of each stencil.

description: We consider a general multicomponent (2+1)-dimensional long-wave--short-wave resonance interaction (LSRI) system with arbitrary nonlinearity coefficients, which describes the nonlinear resonance interaction of multiple short waves with a long-wave in two spatial dimensions. The general multicomponent LSRI system is shown to be integrable by performing the Painlevé analysis. Then we construct the exact bright multi-soliton solutions by applying the Hirota's bilinearization method and study the propagation and collision dynamics of bright solitons in detail. Particularly, we investigate the head-on and overtaking collisions of bright solitons and explore two types of energy-sharing collisions as well as standard elastic collision. We have also corroborated the obtained analytical one-soliton solution by direct numerical simulation. Also, we discuss the formation and dynamics of resonant solitons. Interestingly, we demonstrate the formation of resonant solitons admitting breather-like (localized periodic pulse train) structure and also large amplitude localized structures akin to rogue waves coexisting with solitons. For completeness, we have also obtained dark one- and two-soliton solutions and studied their dynamics briefly.

description: Climate policies should meet the requirements of justice as well as those of efficiency. In order to achieve both goals, the choice of instruments is of central importance. However, German climate policy focuses on announcing newer, more ambitious targets and meanwhile neglects serious discussions about costs and adequate instruments. Such a structure and culture of political discourse is detrimental to the social acceptance of sustainable energy policy and energy transformation. Moreover, the crucial importance of international climate policy is hardly noticed.
description: Die Klimapolitik sollte den Anforderungen der Gerechtigkeit ebenso wie denen der Effizienz genügen. Dabei sind die zum Einsatz kommenden Instrumente von zentralem Interesse. Jedoch werden meist lediglich die ambitionierten Klimaziele benannt. Vielmehr ist eine offene klimapolitische Diskussion bezüglich innovativer Wege, der zum Einsatz kommenden Instrumente sowie der entstehenden Kosten notwendig. Hierdurch wird auch die gesellschaftliche Akzeptanz gefördert. Zudem ist der Klimawandel ein weltweites Phänomen, weshalb der Klimaschutz nur durch internationale Kooperationen gelingen kann.

description: We explore the effects of an outer stably stratified coronal envelope on rotating turbulent convection, differential rotation, and large-scale dynamo action in spherical wedge models of the Sun. We solve the compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations in a two-layer model with unstable stratification below the surface, representing the convection zone, and a stably stratified coronal envelope above. The interface represents a free surface. We compare our model to models that have no coronal envelope. The presence of a coronal envelope is found to modify the Reynolds stress and the $Λ$ effect resulting in a weaker and non-cylindrical differential rotation. This is related to the reduced latitudinal temperature variations that are caused by and dependent on the angular velocity. Some simulations develop a near-surface shear layer that we can relate to a sign change in the meridional Reynolds stress term in the thermal wind balance equation. Furthermore, the presence of a free surface changes the magnetic field evolution since the toroidal field is concentrated closer to the surface. In all simulations, however, the migration direction of the mean magnetic field can be explained by the Parker--Yoshimura rule, which is consistent with earlier findings. A realistic treatment of the upper boundary in spherical dynamo simulations is crucial for the dynamics of the flow and magnetic field evolution.

Mamiko Markham    December 5th, 2017 ULITA

The Silver Studio Collection at MoDA includes around four hundred Katagami, dating from the early nineteenth century. MoDA’s collection of Katagami is one of the significant public collections of Katagami in Britain. 

The process of using Katagami:
The fabric is first stretched using bamboo sticks (Shinshi). A Katagami stencil is placed on the fabric and past resist is applied. The Dyer uses a Hake brush to 'paint' dye on the fabric. This process is called 'Hikizome'.

In the UK, immersion dyeing has often been used after applying paste resists by Katagami stencil. Alternatively dye printing directly by Katagami stencil. However, traditional Katagami stencil use, from past to present, 'Hikizome', uses the Hake brush.　　　
This paper introduces the traditional 'Hikizome' workshop I gave at ULITA.
title: Winston Churchill and the British public: propaganda and perception, 1939-1945
Creators: name: Sinclair, Gill
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2022

description: Winston Churchill is viewed in the popular memory of the Second World War as the epitome of British tenacity and bullishness, of courage and determination, and, as A.J.P. Taylor wrote in his famous footnote, the saviour of the nation. Through his speeches, Churchill provided the memorable rhetoric of die war and is seen to have unified the country both by his determined effort to win the war as well as by the adoration he inspired among the British public. This thesis challenges these assumptions about Churchill’s personal popularity during the war, and traces the fluctuations in the public’s opinion of him. Rather than the apogee occurring in 1940 as die popular view would hold, the thesis argues that it came in 1943 when military victories, optimism for the post-war world and the emergent Churchill Legend converged. This provided an unrivalled platform for his reputation, but thereafter it began to fail as frustration and disappointment set in, so that by the General Election of 1945 Churchill’s stock amongst the British public was exhausted; any vestigial popularity was based upon retrospective gratitude for his leadership in 1940 and his growing Legend. In tracing the changing fortunes of Churchill’s popularity, the thesis also explores which aspects of Churchill’s public image appealed to die British people and which antagonised. It examines how Churchill’s image was portrayed and to what extent it was manipulated by the media, the Ministry of Information and by Churchill himself. It is argued that the common aims of wartime propaganda facilitated the emergence of the Churchill Legend and that diere was a discreet yet determined effort to popularise him, especially in the early days of the war. Extensive use is made of die Home Intelligence Reports of the Ministry of Information and of Mass-Observation's File Reports to identify the public’s opinions, whilst Churchill’s papers and other sources reveal die programme of deliberate publicity that surrounded him during the war.

description: Context. It is generally agreed that hydrogenation reactions dominate chemistry on grain surfaces in cold, dense molecular cores, saturating the molecules present in ice mantles. Aims. We present a study of the low temperature reactivity of solid phase isocyanic acid (HNCO) with hydrogen atoms, with the aim of elucidating its reaction network. Methods. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and mass spectrometry were employed to follow the evolution of pure HNCO ice during bombardment with H atoms. Both multilayer and monolayer regimes were investigated. Results. The hydrogenation of HNCO does not produce detectable amounts of formamide (NH2CHO) as the major product. Experiments using deuterium reveal that deuteration of solid HNCO occurs rapidly, probably via cyclic reaction paths regenerating HNCO. Chemical desorption during these reaction cycles leads to loss of HNCO from the surface. Conclusions. It is unlikely that significant quantities of NH2CHO form from HNCO. In dense regions, however, deuteration of HNCO will occur. HNCO and DNCO will be introduced into the gas phase, even at low temperatures, as a result of chemical desorption.

Phonon-assisted carrier motion on the Wannier-Stark ladder

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: It is well known that at zero temperature and in the absence of electron-phonon coupling, the presence of an electric field leads to localization of carriers residing in a single band of finite bandwidth. We implement the Self-Consistent Born Approximation (SCBA) to study the effect of weak electron-phonon coupling on the motion of a carrier in a biased system. At moderate and strong electron-phonon coupling we supplement the SCBA, describing the string of phonons left behind by the carrier, with the Momentum Average (MA) approximation to describe the phonon cloud that accompanies the resulting polaron. We find that coupling to the lattice delocalizes the carrier, as expected, although long-lived resonances resulting from the Wannier-Stark states of the polaron may appear in the spectrum in certain regions of the parameter space. The approach we propose here can also be used to implement and check the validity of simple variational approximations.

description: We study the motion of a hole with internal degrees of freedom, introduced to the zigzag magnetic ground state of Na$_2$IrO$_3$, by using the self-consistent Born approximation. We find that the low, intermediate, and high-energy spectra are primarily attributed to the singlet, triplet, and quintet hole contributions, respectively. The spectral functions exhibit distinct features such as the electron-like dispersion of low-energy states near the $Γ$ point, the maximum M-point intensity of mid-energy states, and the hole-like dispersion of high-energy states. These features are robust and almost insensitive to the exchange model and Hund's coupling, and are in qualitative agreement with the angular-resolved photoemission spectra observed in Na$_2$IrO$_3$. Our results reveal that the interference between internal degrees of freedom in different sublattices plays an important role in inducing the complex dispersions.

description: We describe synchronization transitions in an ensemble of globally coupled phase oscillators with a bi-harmonic coupling function, and two sources of disorder - diversity of intrinsic oscillatory frequencies and external independent noise. Based on the self-consistent formulation, we derive analytic solutions for different synchronous states. We report on various non-trivial transitions from incoherence to synchrony where possible scenarios include: simple supercritical transition (similar to classical Kuramoto model), subcritical transition with large area of bistability of incoherent and synchronous solutions, and also appearance of symmetric two-cluster solution which can coexist with regular synchronous state. Remarkably, we show that the interplay between relatively small white noise and finite-size fluctuations can lead to metastable asynchronous solution.

description: Interacting Bose-Fermi mixtures possess a fermionic (super)symmetry when bosons and fermions in the mixture have equal masses, and when the interaction strengths are appropriately tuned. This symmetry is spontaneously broken in the ground state of the mixture, leading to a novel Goldstone mode with fermionic statistics and quadratic dispersion. Here we examine the effect of explicit symmetry-breaking perturbations on the Goldstone mode. When the symmetry is not exact and the system is allowed to deviate from the symmetric point, we find that the Goldstone mode acquires an energy gap. We show that the excitations manifest themselves as a non-analyticity of the thermodynamic pressure.

description: Sub-Nyquist time frequency packing technique was demonstrated for the first time in a super channel field trial transmission over long-haul distances. The technique allows a limited spectral occupancy even with low order modulation formats. The transmission was successfully performed on a deployed Australian link between Sydney and Melbourne which included 995 km of uncompensated SMF with coexistent traffic. 40 and 100 Gb/s co-propagating channels were transmitted together with the super-channel in a 50 GHz ITU-T grid without additional penalty. The super-channel consisted of eight sub-channels with low-level modulation format, i.e. DP-QPSK, guaranteeing better OSNR robustness and reduced complexity with respect to higher order formats. At the receiver side, coherent detection was used together with iterative maximum-a-posteriori (MAP) detection and decoding. A 975 Gb/s DP-QPSK super-channel was successfully transmitted between Sydney and Melbourne within four 50GHz WSS channels (200 GHz). A maximum potential SE of 5.58 bit/s/Hz was achieved with an OSNR=15.8 dB, comparable to the OSNR of the installed 100 Gb/s channels. The system reliability was proven through long term measurements. In addition, by closing the link in a loop back configuration, a potential SE*d product of 9254 bit/s/Hz*km was achieved.

Defining the frame of minimum nonlinear Hubble expansion variation

description: We characterize a cosmic rest frame in which the monopole variation of the spherically averaged nonlinear Hubble expansion is most uniform, under arbitrary local Lorentz boosts of the central observer. Using the COMPOSITE sample of 4534 galaxies, we identify a degenerate set of candidate minimum nonlinear variation frames, which includes the rest frame of the Local Group (LG) of galaxies, but excludes the standard Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) frame. Candidate rest frames defined by a boost from the LG frame close to the plane of the galaxy have a statistical likelihood similar to the LG frame. This may result from a lack of constraining data in the Zone of Avoidance. We extend our analysis to the Cosmicflows-2 (CF2) sample of 8162 galaxies. While the signature of a systematic boost offset between the CMB and LG frame averages is still detected, the spherically averaged nonlinear expansion variation in all rest frames is significantly larger in the CF2 sample than would be reasonably expected. We trace this to the CF2 distances being reported without a correction for inhomogeneous distribution Malmquist bias. Systematic differences in the inclusion of the large SFI++ subsample into the COMPOSITE and CF2 catalogues are analysed. Our results highlight the importance of a careful treatment of Malmquist biases for future peculiar velocities studies, including tests of the hypothesis of Wiltshire et al [Phys. Rev. D 88 (2013) 083529; arXiv:1201.5371] that a significant fraction of the CMB temperature dipole may be nonkinematic in origin.

title: Piano Study and Gender Associations: A Query Into the Perceptions of Children Ages Five to Fourteen
Creators: name: Winfree, Richard C.
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries

description: rom its inception, male composers and performers such as Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, Rachmaninoff, Cliburn, and Kempffhad dominated piano performance. Recent research suggests, however, that the piano has been designated with a feminine gender stereotype. The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions of public school children ages five to fourteen years old relative to gender association and piano study to determine if a gender stereotype existed and at what age, if any, the stereotype stabilized.

To achieve this purpose, two surveys were created and implemented by the researcher. The first survey was administered to 879 students in kindergarten through the eighth grade and asked, Who should take piano lessons, boys, boys and girls, or girls? The second survey was administered to 908 students in kindergarten through the eighth grade and asked, Who should not take piano lessons, boys, boys and girls, or girls? Several versions of each survey were used which placed the answer choices in different Likert-type patterns in an effort to avoid hierarchical bias.

The data from each school were compiled and sorted by survey question, grade level, and gender. Once sorted, the data were transformed to percentages and analyzed. The data suggested that piano lessons had a weak association with a feminine gender among boys in the third through eighth grades. This stereotype did not show a grade level at which it stabilized as it began developing in the second and third grades and continued to grow through the eighth grade. Piano lessons had a much stronger association with the feminine gender amongst girls in kindergarten through the eighth grade and did not appear to stabilize in any grade level within the scope of the study.

description: Attributing plutonium to a specific country or organization is a complex and challenging problem that has great interest in the nuclear forensics and counterproliferation communities. Since plutonium is made in a nuclear reactor, identifying the type of reactor, material age, and other physical or chemical characteristics can help in identifying the material origin. For precise attribution, samples or calculations would be needed that represent all operating conditions, for all reactor types, and all possible fuel variations to create a databased to be queried to identify a reactor of origin from sampled material. A database this complex is currently unachievable so existing material databases and validated models must be leveraged with new approaches for identification. Since the produced plutonium isotopics are a function of multiple reactor operating parameters (fuel type, fuel enrichment, moderator, local fuel and moderator temperatures, reactor power, and irradiation time), a multi-variate approach is necessary to capture the variation. In this work, a novel classification algorithm based on regression models of measured and calculated plutonium isotopic data has been developed. While regression analysis is an established method, this is the first application of this technique to available used fuel plutonium isotopic measurement data combined with calculated data from reactor physics models. The innovative algorithm can quickly identify the most probable reactor type of origin and can ultimately help focus limited resources in the event attribution of interdicted plutonium is necessary. Measured used fuel isotopic data was obtained through the Spent Fuel COMPOsition (SFCOMPO) database and combined with additional plutonium measurements from the Hanford plutonium production reactors to create a catalogue of plutonium isotopics. The augmented dataset includes measurements and uncertainties where available of the plutonium isotopes ²³⁸Pu, ²³⁹Pu, ²⁴⁰Pu, ²⁴¹Pu, and ²⁴²Pu for light water moderated reactors, graphite moderated reactors, and heavy water moderated reactors to develop the classification algorithm for use in discriminating the reactor of origin. The developed algorithm can be used to triage plutonium isotopic information to differentiate materials originating in reactors with different moderators, and the potential to discriminate between reactor types with the same moderator. The new capability provided by the classification algorithm can be applied to realworld scenarios in the nuclear forensic, counterterrorism, and counterproliferation communities. This method can incorporate additional datasets to increase the accuracy of identification as well as expanding the number of different reactor types.

The Silver Studio Collection at MoDA includes around four hundred Katagami, dating from the early nineteenth century. MoDA’s collection of Katagami is one of the significant public collections of Katagami in Britain. 

The process of using Katagami:
The fabric is first stretched using bamboo sticks (Shinshi). A Katagami stencil is placed on the fabric and past resist is applied. The Dyer uses a Hake brush to 'paint' dye on the fabric. This process is called 'Hikizome'.

In the UK, immersion dyeing has often been used after applying paste resists by Katagami stencil. Alternatively dye printing directly by Katagami stencil. However, traditional Katagami stencil use, from past to present, 'Hikizome', uses the Hake brush.　　　
This paper introduces the traditional 'Hikizome' workshop I gave at ULITA.

description: We build a simple and general class of finite difference schemes for first order Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) Partial Differential Equations. These filtered schemes are convergent to the unique viscosity solution of the equation. The schemes are accurate: we implement second, third and fourth order accurate schemes in one dimension and second order accurate schemes in two dimensions, indicating how to build higher order ones. They are also explicit, which means they can be solved using the fast sweeping method or the fast marching method.The accuracy of the method is validated with computational results for the eikonal equation in one and two dimensions, using filtered schemes made from standard centered differences, higher order upwinding and ENO interpolation.
