description: For the SPECTRAP experiment at GSI, Germany, detectors with Single-Photon counting capability in the visible and near-infrared regime are required. For the wavelength region up to 1100 nm we investigate the performance of 2x2 mm^2 avalanche photo diodes (APDs) of type S0223 manufactured by Radiation Monitoring Devices. To minimize thermal noise, the APDs are cooled to approximately -170 deg. C using liquid nitrogen. By operating the diodes close to the breakdown voltage it is possible to achieve relative gains in excess of 2x10^4. Custom-made low noise preamplifiers are used to read out the devices. The measurements presented in this paper have been obtained at a relative gain of 2.2x10^4. At a discriminator threshold of 6 mV the resulting dark count rate is in the region of 230/s. With these settings the studied APDs are able to detect single photons at 628 nm wavelength with a photo detection efficiency of (67+-7)%. Measurements at 1020 nm wavelength have been performed using the attenuated output of a grating spectrograph with a light bulb as photon source. With this setup the photo detection efficiency at 1020 nm has been determined to be (13+-3)%, again at a threshold of 6 mV.

description: Older adults who live alone are more likely to experience social isolation. Physical activity (PA) provides an opportunity and purpose for participating socially, but there may be social barriers for this population. We examined experiences with social support, social connections, and social barriers related to participating in group PA among older adult women who live alone. Older adult women (n = 16; Mage = 66.9 years, the majority of whom were White) who live alone were interviewed, and data were thematically analysed. Perspectives on living alone varied, with some valuing the freedom of not accommodating another person, while others felt it hampered motivation. Group PA contexts could provide a community who would notice if something was wrong, motivation to leave the house, and a source of comparison for inspiration and benchmarking progress, but some experienced a lack of support and women varied in their perspectives on what supports met their needs. Barriers included challenges with engaging with unfamiliar social groups alone. Many discussed the perspective that they took responsibility for motivating their own PA. Living alone has varied advantages and challenges, and PA may fill support needs in this population. Programs should consider barriers such as the awkwardness of entering social situations alone, and structure classes to encourage social participation and opportunities for building closer connections for those who seek them.

description: The two high frequency quasi periodic oscillations (HFQPOs) recently reported in the black hole candidate IGR J17091-3624 by Altamirano and Belloni (2012) are in a 5:2 frequency ratio (164 Hz to 66 Hz). This ratio is strongly suggestive of period doubling and nonlinear resonance analogous to phenomena known in RV Tauri-type pulsating stars (and recently discovered also in oscillations of RR Lyrae-type and of BL Herculis-type variables). An interpretation of the frequency ratio in terms of nonlinear interactions and a comparison with the HFQPOs reported in GRS 1915+105 may imply a mass of about 6 solar masses for the black hole in IGR J17091- 3624.

description: We investigate the effects of newly measured beta-decay half-lives on r-process nucleosynthesis. These new rates were determined by recent experiments at the radioactive isotope beam factory facility in the RIKEN Nishina Center. We adopt an r-process nucleosynthesis environment based on a magnetohydrodynamic supernova explosion model that includes strong magnetic fields and rapid rotation of the progenitor. A number of the new beta-decay rates are for nuclei on or near the r-process path, and hence they affect the nucleosynthesis yields and time scale of the r-process. The main effect of the newly measured beta-decay half-lives is an enhancement in the calculated abundance of isotopes with mass number A = 110 -- 120 relative to calculated abundances based upon beta-decay rates estimated with the finite-range droplet mass model. This effect slightly alleviates, but does not fully explain, the tendency of r-process models to underproduce isotopes with A = 110 -- 120 compared to the solar-system r-process abundances.

description: The North American fossil record of dinosaur eggshells for the Cretaceous is primarily restricted to formations of the middle (Albian–Cenomanian) and uppermost (Campanian–Maastrichtian) stages, with a large gap in the record for intermediate stages. Here we describe a dinosaur eggshell assemblage from a formation that represents an intermediate and poorly fossiliferous stage of the Upper Cretaceous, the Santonian Milk River Formation of southern Alberta, Canada. The Milk River eggshell assemblage contains five eggshell taxa: Continuoolithus, Porituberoolithus, Prismatoolithus, Spheroolithus, and Triprismatoolithus. These ootaxa are most similar to those reported from younger Campanian–Maastrichtian formations of the northern Western Interior than they are to ootaxa reported from older middle Cretaceous formations (i.e., predominantly Macroelongatoolithus). Characteristics of the Milk River ootaxa indicate that they are ascribable to at least one ornithopod and four small theropod species. The taxonomic affinity of the eggshell assemblage is consistent with the dinosaur fauna known based on isolated teeth and fragmentary skeletal remains from the formation, although most ornithischians and large theropods are not represented by eggshell. Relative to the Milk River Formation eggshell, similar oospecies occurring in younger Cretaceous deposits tend to be somewhat thicker, which may reflect an increase in body size of various dinosaur lineages during the Late Cretaceous.

description: Observations from multiple gamma-ray telescopes have uncovered a high energy gamma-ray source spatially coincident with the Galactic center. Recently, a compelling model for the broad-band gamma-ray emission has been formulated which posits that high energy protons emanating from Sgr A* could produce gamma-rays through pion decays resulting from inelastic collisions with the traversed interstellar gas in the region. Models of the gas distribution in the Galactic center region imply that the resulting gamma-ray morphology would be observed as a point source with all current telescopes, but that the upcoming Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) may be able to detect an extended emission profile with an unmistakable morphology. Here, we critically evaluate this claim, employing a three dimensional gas distribution model and a detailed Monte Carlo simulation, and using the anticipated effective area and angular resolution of CTA. We find that the impressive angular resolution of CTA will be key to test hadronic emission models conclusively against, for example, point source or dark matter annihilation scenarios. We comment on the relevance of this result for searches for dark matter annihilation in the Galactic center region.

Mandibular force profiles and tooth morphology in growth series of Albertosaurus sarcophagus and Gorgosaurus libratus (Tyrannosauridae: Albertosaurinae) provide evidence for an ontogenetic dietary shift in tyrannosaurids

description: The albertosaurines Albertosaurus sarcophagus and Gorgosaurus libratus are among the best represented tyrannosaurids, known from nearly complete growth series. These specimens provide an opportunity to study mandibular biomechanical properties and tooth morphology to infer changes in feeding behaviour and bite force through ontogeny in tyrannosaurids. Mandibular force profiles reveal that the symphyseal region of albertosaurines is consistently stronger in bending than the mid-dentary region, indicating that the anterior extremity of the jaws played an important role in prey capture and handling through ontogeny. The symphyseal region was better adapted to withstand torsional stresses than in most non-avian theropods, but not to the extent seen in Tyrannosaurus rex, suggesting that albertosaurine feeding behaviour may have involved less bone crushing or perhaps relatively smaller prey than in Tyrannosaurus rex. The constancy of these biomechanical properties at all known growth stages indicates that although albertosaurines maintained a similar feeding strategy through ontogeny, prey size/type had to change between juvenile and mature individuals. This ontogenetic dietary shift likely happened when individuals reached a mandibular length of ∼58 cm, a size at which teeth shift from ziphodont to incrassate in shape and bite force begins to increase exponentially. The fact that large albertosaurines were capable of generating bite forces equivalent to similar-sized tyrannosaurines suggests that no significant differences in jaw-closing musculature existed between the two clades and that the powerful bite of Tyrannosaurus rex is the result of its large body size rather than of unique adaptations related to a specialized ecology.

description: For a single degree of freedom confined mechanical system with given energy, we know that the motion is always periodic and action-angle variables are convenient choice as conjugate phase-space variables. We construct action-angle coherent states in view to provide a quantization scheme that yields precisely a given observed energy spectrum ${E_n}$ for such a system. This construction is based on a Bayesian approach: each family corresponds to a choice of probability distributions such that the classical energy averaged with respect to this probability distribution is precisely $E_n$ up to a constant shift. The formalism is viewed as a natural extension of the Bohr-Sommerfeld rule and an alternative to the canonical quantization. In particular, it also yields a satisfactory angle operator as a bounded self-adjoint operator.

We discuss both the case of Gaussian noise and real noise of gravitational wave detectors for arbitrary detector networks. We demonstrate the ability to reach Gaussian limited sensitivity in real non-Gaussian data, and show the conditions required to attain it. We find that a single sky position search is ~20% more sensitive than an all-sky search of the same data.

description: Wombs is a work of fiction in the form of fragmented vignettes. The work presents the life of a childfree woman, Jessa, and how her choice to not reproduce affects the relationships in her life – romantic, platonic, and familial. My intention behind this thesis is to present and represent the validity of childfree women. Grounded in fictional realism, my imagined world, opens with an at-home abortion and presents discussions of abortion and abortion health care throughout the manuscript. These sections stem, in part, from the June 2022 overturning of Roe v. Wade and its subsequent effect on Canadian women through Conservative MP Cathay Wagantall's Bill C-311. The novella is set in Canada's present day, where abortion care is available nationwide. The manuscript also invokes a deliberate fragmented structure which illustrates how childfreedom does not fall into the confines of traditional storytelling, and through extension, society's constructions of the nuclear family. My manuscript occupies the space outside of these carefully constructed lines. The subsequent exegesis contextualizes abortion, the validity of childfreedom and the role of mothers and mothering in nature and within (and outside of) ideological scripts. My hope is that this work challenges the idea of the non-mother as lacking, implements childbearing as a conscious decision, and champions abortion rights as human rights.
Synthetic lethality and synthetic cytotoxicity strategies for selective killing of ATM deficient cells
Creators: name: Li, Xuesong
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: Chromosome instability (CIN) is a hallmark of cancer cells and could, in theory, be exploited in the design of cancer therapeutics. Tumor cells harboring CIN mutations may be dependent on certain DNA repair pathways for viability. Thus, inhibition of specific DNA repair enzymes may enhance the CIN phenotype to an intolerable level, or may sensitize cells to DNA damage stress. To test this hypothesis, I focused on the CIN gene ATM, which is often mutated in human tumors. I hypothesized that knockdown of certain second site DNA repair genes would selectively kill ATM-deficient cells resulting in synthetic lethality (SL), or sensitize ATM-deficient cells to a sub-lethal dose of DNA damaging agent resulting in synthetic cytotoxicity (SC). The goal of this research is to use budding yeast as a model system to identify candidate SL or SC interaction partner genes for ATM with/without sub-lethal doses of DNA damaging agents, using mutations in the yeast ATM homologues, TEL1 and MEC1. I tested for interactions with TEL1 and MEC1 in a small matrix of three DNA repair genes (RAD27, TDP1 and TPP1) and four DNA damaging agents (hydroxyurea, 5-fluorouracil, bleomycin, and camptothecin). I also performed a genome-wide screen for interactions between TEL1 and ~5000 non-essential genes, both in the presence and absence of low doses of camptothecin. I discovered one SL interaction with MEC1 and fourteen SC interactions with TEL1. Most of the SC interaction partner genes are involved in DNA repair and show sensitivity specifically to camptothecin. These data provide a rationale for testing specific combination therapies for selective killing of cancer cells bearing ATM mutations. Specifically, the Shu complex, Ku complex, Rrm3, Rad27 and CK2β subunits can be further tested as potential combination therapeutic targets, together with a sub-lethal dose of camptothecin, to kill ATM-deficient cancer cells.

description: We observe that the $N^3$ entropy behavior of near-extermal M5 branes can be reproduced from SYM side with the role of Myers' terms. We start by generalizing the Klebanov-Tseytlin (KT) supergravity solution that displays the $N^3$ entropy behavior. The new feature of the general solution is visibility of the "internal" degrees of the M5 branes, i.e., the M0 branes and the M2 branes. With the rationale provided by the supergravity analysis, we consider a D0 brane quantum mechanical setup with Myers' terms. Using localization technique, we show that the leading $N^3$ behavior of the free energy comes from the "classical contribution" with the rest sub-leading.

description: Let $G$ be a group and let $E$ be a functor from small $\Z$-linear categories to spectra. Also let $A$ be a ring with a $G$-action. Under mild conditions on $E$ and $A$ one can define an equivariant homology theory of $G$-simplicial sets $H^G(-,E(A))$ with the property that if $H\subset G$ is a subgroup, then \[ H^G_*(G/H,E(A))=E_*(A\rtimes H) \] If now $\cF$ is a nonempty family of subgroups of $G$, closed under conjugation and under subgroups, then there is a model category structure on $G$-simplicial sets such that a map $X\to Y$ is a weak equivalence (resp. a fibration) if and only if $X^H\to Y^H$ is an equivalence (resp. a fibration) for all $H\in\cF$. The strong isomorphism conjecture for the quadruple $(G,\cF,E,A)$ asserts that if $cX\to X$ is the $(G,\cF)$-cofibrant replacement then \[ H^G(cX,E(A))\to H^G(X,E(A)) \] is an equivalence. The isomorphism conjecture says that this holds when $X$ is the one point space, in which case $cX$ is the classifying space $\cE(G,\cF)$. In this paper we introduce an algebraic notion of $(G,\cF)$-properness for $G$-rings, modelled on the analogous notion for $G$-$C^*$-algebras, and show that the strong $(G,\cF,E,P)$ isomorphism conjecture for $(G,\cF)$-proper $P$ is true in several cases of interest in the algebraic $K$-theory context. Thus we give a purely algebraic, discrete counterpart to a result of Guentner, Higson and Trout in the $C^*$-algebraic case. We apply this to show that under rather general hypothesis, the assembly map $H_*^G(\cE(G,\cF),E(A))\to E_*(A\rtimes G)$ can be identified with the boundary map in the long exact sequence of $E$-groups associated to certain exact sequence of rings. Along the way we prove several results on excision in algebraic $K$-theory and cyclic homology which are of independent interest.

description: Time-lapse seismic, also known as 4D seismic, is a powerful tool for monitoring subsurface changes over time. By comparing seismic data acquired at different intervals, it enables the detection and characterization of dynamic reservoir processes, aiding in reservoir management, production optimization, and enhanced oil recovery. It has applications in geothermal energy, CO2 storage monitoring, and environmental impact assessment. However, accurate analysis of time-lapse seismic data remains a challenging task. It requires well-repeated time-lapse seismic surveys, including well-repeated acquisition geometry and equipment as well as well-repeated ambient noise. This thesis is to alleviate the non-repeatability issues in time-lapse seismic imaging and full-waveform inversion (FWI), and to realize the uncertain quantification for time-lapse seismic waveform inversion. A time-lapse imaging approach that involves two new frequency-domain matching filters is developed. The first filter requires source wavelet estimates from both baseline and monitoring data, while the second filter is source-independent but more sensitive to data noise. By applying these filters, we successfully reduce source wavelet non-repeatability, and the new approach improves the accuracy of time-lapse imaging. Furthermore, a stepsize-sharing time-lapse FWI strategy is designed to reduce artifacts caused by the variability of convergence in conventional strategies. The strategy demonstrates good adaptivity in different tested realistic scenarios using synthetic data. It is stable for scenarios using biased starting models, while the conventional strategies fail in this regard. Moreover, to realize the uncertain quantification, a Bayesian time-lapse FWI procedure, based on a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm, is formulated. The formulation employs several existing strategies, including the use of a double-difference time-lapse FWI, incorporation of time-domain multi-source data, and application of a local-updating target-oriented inversion. It incorporates these within a stochastic framework, involving the computation of model covariance with an adaptive Metropolis algorithm, and a method to estimate data error statistics based on the features of time-lapse difference data is incorporated. A random walk Metropolis-Hastings MCMC is adopted for optimization.

description: In the coordination/consensus problem for multi-agent systems, a well-known condition of achieving consensus is the presence of a spanning arborescence in the communication digraph. The paper deals with the discrete consensus problem in the case where this condition is not satisfied. A characterization of the subspace $T_P$ of initial opinions (where $P$ is the influence matrix) that \emph{ensure} consensus in the DeGroot model is given. We propose a method of coordination that consists of: (1) the transformation of the vector of initial opinions into a vector belonging to $T_P$ by orthogonal projection and (2) subsequent iterations of the transformation $P.$ The properties of this method are studied. It is shown that for any non-periodic stochastic matrix $P,$ the resulting matrix of the orthogonal projection method can be treated as a regularized power limit of $P.$

description: We discover the origin of the pathologies of the disorder parameter used in previous papers to detect dual superconductivity of QCD vacuum, and we remove them by defining an improved disorder parameter. A check of the approach is made by numerical simulations of SU(2) gauge theory, which demonstrate that the approach is consistent and with it that deconfinement is a transition from dual superconductor to normal.

description: Background: The demands for specialized cardiac diagnostic and interventional procedures exceed available resources. Long wait times pose difficulties for patients, families, and the triage nurses who work to optimize the process. Referral intake teams operate independently to book hospitalized inpatients and outpatients for the same cardiac procedure timeslots within the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory. The role of the triage nurse is to optimize patient placement based on acuity. Understanding the meaning and inherent complexity that triage nurses attach to this process is necessary to inform optimization of resource utilization and improve the assessment capabilities of the triage nurse. Aim: The aim of this study was to address the question: What are the experiences and perspectives of triage nurses when implementing referral processes for cardiac procedures? Methods: A qualitative interpretive description (ID) methodology was used to understand the critical factors influencing triage decision-making and processes. Six semi-structured interviews were conducted with five nurses responsible for triaging inpatients and outpatients for specialized cardiac procedures. Thereafter, constant comparative analysis was used to analyze the data and support the iterative ID process. Findings: The human touch, the advocate, and the art of triage illustrate that the triage nurse role necessitates clinical and interpersonal skills and expertise to develop rapport with multiple stakeholders to optimize patient flow and ensure timely access to care for all cardiac patients regardless of inpatient or outpatient status. Discussion: Collegial relationships, transparency regarding wait times, standardizing education, and applying a streamlined, evidence-based approach to triage and waitlist management are essential in reducing inconsistencies and improving the art of triage. The addition of a Clinical Nurse Specialist can support clinical excellence in this area through ongoing research, quality improvement initiatives, education, collaboration between both triage roles and coordination of patient care with referring and procedural sites.

A Parallel Monte Carlo Code for Simulating Collisional N-body Systems

description: We present a new parallel code for computing the dynamical evolution of collisional N-body systems with up to N~10^7 particles. Our code is based on the the Henon Monte Carlo method for solving the Fokker-Planck equation, and makes assumptions of spherical symmetry and dynamical equilibrium. The principal algorithmic developments involve optimizing data structures, and the introduction of a parallel random number generation scheme, as well as a parallel sorting algorithm, required to find nearest neighbors for interactions and to compute the gravitational potential. The new algorithms we introduce along with our choice of decomposition scheme minimize communication costs and ensure optimal distribution of data and workload among the processing units. The implementation uses the Message Passing Interface (MPI) library for communication, which makes it portable to many different supercomputing architectures. We validate the code by calculating the evolution of clusters with initial Plummer distribution functions up to core collapse with the number of stars, N, spanning three orders of magnitude, from 10^5 to 10^7. We find that our results are in good agreement with self-similar core-collapse solutions, and the core collapse times generally agree with expectations from the literature. Also, we observe good total energy conservation, within less than 0.04% throughout all simulations. We analyze the performance of the code, and demonstrate near-linear scaling of the runtime with the number of processors up to 64 processors for N=10^5, 128 for N=10^6 and 256 for N=10^7. The runtime reaches a saturation with the addition of more processors beyond these limits which is a characteristic of the parallel sorting algorithm. The resulting maximum speedups we achieve are approximately 60x, 100x, and 220x, respectively.

description: Known from dozens of specimens discovered since the early 20th century, Gorgosaurus libratus has arguably contributed more than any other taxon to our understanding of the life history of tyrannosaurids. However, juvenile material for this taxon is rare. Here, we describe two small, articulated Gorgosaurus specimens (skull lengths of ca. 500 mm) that help advance our knowledge of the anatomy and ontogeny of this taxon and of tyrannosaurids in general. The new specimens exhibit hallmark juvenile tyrannosaurid features, including long, low, and narrow skulls, large circular orbits, absent or incipient cranial ornamentation, ziphodont dentition, and an overall gracile skull frame. Comparison with other Gorgosaurus specimens of various ontogenetic stages allows for an examination of the timing of morphological changes that occurred through ontogeny in this taxon relative to other tyrannosaurids. Of particular note, Gorgosaurus and the larger Tyrannosaurus rex are found to have experienced similar ontogenetic transformations at similar percent skull length relative to the large known individuals for each respective taxon but at different absolute body sizes and biological ages, occurring at a larger size and older age in Tyrannosaurus than in Gorgosaurus. These results suggest a dissociation between the timing of cranial development and body size in tyrannosaurids. Finally, the recognition of ontogenetically invariant characters in Gorgosaurus makes it possible to determine the taxonomic identity of previously misidentified specimens.

description: The purpose of this research was to understand the extent to which women in leadership are being overtly and purposefully prepared to lead in the contemporary, dynamic environments. The research was conducted from a pragmatic paradigmatic orientation and utilized a mixed methods convergent design. Qualitative and quantitative data collection methods resulted in a combined total of 63 participants/respondents with online questionnaire (n=38) of which 13 different individuals did not participate in the interview portion, and semi-structured interviews (n=25). The sample ranged from junior to senior level women leaders within Ontario services industry who were in a leadership role for at least one year and had participated in leadership development. Six major findings emerged from this research: 1. Leadership development where learning includes social interactions positively influenced the experiences and effectiveness of women leaders. 2. Women leaders are intrinsically motivated to learn. 3. Transformational, authentic, and team leadership are valuable leadership styles/approaches within the contemporary environment. 4. Stereotypical expectations and biases in the contemporary workplace influenced the evaluation of leadership effectiveness and perception of gendered leadership. 5. Conducting needs assessment is necessary for designing development programs. 6. Communication skills is most valuable for the contemporary workplace. The Riley’s Model of Women Leadership Development was developed in response to the findings to create a collaborative approach to leadership development design and execution, among designers, providers, organizations, and women leaders who are at the core of the model.
